On February 26, 2019 , the Company announced in a press release that, while "the [Oyu Tolgoi] project cost was expected to remain within the $5.3 billion budget," a review had determined that "there was an increasingly likely risk of a further delay to sustainable first production beyond Q3'21." Turquoise Hill attributed the "likely risk" to productivity setbacks in completing Shaft 2 and "challenging ground conditions that have had a direct impact on the project's critical path."

On this news, the Company's share price fell $0.27 , or approximately 13%, to close at $1.83 per share on February 27, 2019 , thereby injuring investors.

Then, on July 15, 2019 , Turquoise Hill announced that sustainable first production from the underground development of Oyu Tolgoi would now be delayed by another 9 to 21 months until May 2022 to June 2023 . The Company also stated that "the development capital spend for the project may increase by $1.2 to $1.9 billion over the $5.3 billion previously disclosed."

On this news, the Company's share price fell $0.47 , or 44%, to close at $0.60 per share on July 16, 2019 , thereby injuring investors further.

Then, on July 31, 2019 , after the market closed, Turquoise Hill disclosed that it had taken a $600 million impairment charge and a significant "deferred income tax recognition adjustment" tied to the Oyu Tolgoi project, and that it had suffered a loss in the second quarter.

On this news, the Company's share price fell $0.05 , or over 8%, to close at $0.53 per share on August 1, 2019 , thereby injuring investors further.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) the production of underground development of Oyu Tolgoi was not proceeding as planned; (2) there were substantial undisclosed underground stability problems that called into question the design of the mine and the projected cost and timing of production; (3) Turquoise Hill's publicly released estimates of the cost, date of completion, and dates for production from the underground mine were not attainable; (4) the development capital required for the underground development of Oyu Tolgoi would cost substantially more than a billion dollars over what Turquoise Hill had represented; (5) Turquoise Hill would require additional financing and/or equity to complete the project; and (6) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
