FARMLAND PARTNERS SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Block & Leviton Reminds Investors of Securities Fraud Class Action Filed Against Farmland Partners (FPI); Shareholders Are Encouraged to Contact the Firm

BOSTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / August 9, 2018 / Block & Leviton LLP (www.blockesq.com), a securities litigation firm representing investors nationwide, reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Farmland Partners, Inc. ("Farmland" or the "Company") (NYSE: FPI) and certain of its officers and directors alleging violations of the federal securities laws. Class members interested in serving as lead plaintiff are reminded of the September 10, 2018 lead plaintiff deadline.

On July 11, 2018, Rota Fortunae published an article alleging that Farmland artificially increased revenues "by making loans to related-party tenants who round-trip the cash back to FPI as rent." According to the report, 310% of the Company's 2017 earnings could be made-up.

"We found evidence that strongly supports FPI has significantly overpaid for properties," Rota Fortunae writes, adding that "under normal circumstances, we estimate FPI is worth $4.85/share, but we think the shares are un-investible."

On this news, FPI stock plunged over 35%.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired FPI securities and have questions about your legal rights, or possess information relevant to this investigation, you are encouraged to contact attorney John DeFelice at (888) 868-2385, by email at john@blockesq.com or by visiting http://shareholder.law/farmland.
