Sasol Limited (SSL) Accused of Misleading Shareholders

According to the complaint, in October 2014, Sasol announced the construction of an $8.1 billion ethane cracker and derivatives complex named the Lake Charles Chemicals Project (“LCCP”). However, Sasol failed to conduct sufficient due diligence on the project, and therefore provided shareholders an inaccurate cost estimate in its announcement. This became evident on May 22, 2019, when Sasol increased the LCCP’s cost estimate to a range of $12.6 to $12.9 billion, citing corrections on several aspects of the project. Then in October 2019, Sasol disclosed that a review of the LCCP brought to light “errors, omissions, and inaccuracies in the [LCCP] cost estimate” as well as a number of unethical and improper reporting activities at the highest level of management. Consequently, Sasol announced the resignation of its Joint Presidents, Chief Executive Officers, and others previously in charge of the LCCP. Finally, on January 14, 2020, Sasol announced the Company “experienced an explosion and fire at its LCCP low-density polyethylene unit.” On this news, Sasol’s shares fell almost 8% to close at $19.99 per share on January 15, 2020. The stock has since continued to decline.
