Wichity, KS based Equity Bancshares, Inc. operates as the bank holding company for Equity Bank that provides a range of financial services primarily to businesses, business owners, and individuals. On April 22, 2019, after the market closed, Equity Bancshares, Inc reported a $4.1 million net loss for first quarter 2019, partly due to a $14.5 million impairment for loss against a credit relationship.

The plaintiff claims that between May 11, 2018 and April 22, 2019, the Defendants failed to disclose to investors that the Company lacked adequate internal controls to assess credit risk, that, as a result, certain of the Company's loans posed an increased risk of loss, that, as a result, the Company was reasonably likely to incur significant losses for certain substandard loans, and that, 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.

Those who purchased shares of Equity Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: EQBK) have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation.
