National investment fraud lawyers KlaymanToskes notifies Atlas Growth Partners LP investors that they may have potential recovery options. The law firm is investigating brokerage firms and brokers/financial advisors that recommended investments in Atlas Growth Partners LP following the company’s report of less than $4 million in net assets, despite raising $230 million from investors. This may indicate a $200 million loss of investors’ principal.
Brokerage firms and financial professionals who sold Atlas Growth Partners may be responsible for investor losses. Contact Lawrence L. Klayman, Esq. immediately at (888) 997-9956 or investigations@klaymantoskes.com to discuss your potential recovery options. We do not collect attorney’s fees unless we secure a financial recovery for you.
According to Atlas Growth Partners’ Form 10-K SEC filing for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, the company stated it was facing “significant risks and uncertainties related to our inability to satisfy our current liabilities” and that “if these liabilities are called, we will not have sufficient liquidity to repay all of our outstanding liabilities, and as a result, there would be substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.” This filing came after Atlas Growth’s failure to submit a number of required reports to the SEC.
The company reported net assets under $4 million. Accordingly, it is KlaymanToskes’ opinion that investors may have lost up to 99% of their principal investment (over $200 million) since the company’s initial offering which raised $230 million. In late 2021, Atlas Growth Partners reported net losses of $0.7 million and $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, with cash provided by operating activities of $0.2 million and cash used in operating activities of $0.8 million.
Atlas Growth Partners’ most recent filing with the SEC was a Form 15 (to indicate the termination of registration for a security) filed on December 21st, 2021. In our opinion, this filing is used by companies to revoke their registrations as publicly-traded corporations and is most often used by small companies who find SEC reporting regulations laborious. However, it is also used by companies in distress that may face imminent delisting and prefer to be delisted voluntarily.
According to Atlas Growth Partners’ Form D SEC filing (Notice of Exempt Offering of Securities), the following list of brokerage firms and financial advisory firms may have sold their customers Atlas Growth as part of the company’s $500 million initial offering. The filing also notes that the broker-dealers who sold Atlas Growth investments to their customers earned over $50 million in collective sales commissions.
