Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP Announces Lead Plaintiff Deadline in the Class Action Lawsuit Against Body Central Corporation

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP announces that all purchasers of the common stock of Body Central Corporation (“Body Central” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:BODY) between November 10, 2011 and June 18, 2012, inclusive (the “Class Period”), have until October 29, 2012 to file a motion with the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff. The securities fraud class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.

“revised sales and earnings guidance for its second quarter and full year 2012.”

Body Central operates as a specialty retailer of young women’s apparel and accessories in the south, mid-Atlantic and Midwest United States. The Company operates specialty apparel stores under the Body Central and Body Shop banners. On June 18, 2012 the Company announced “revised sales and earnings guidance for its second quarter and full year 2012.” According to a Company-issued press release, the revision was a result of “recent sales trends,” which the Company expects “will continue into the third quarter with some impact to gross margin.”

The Complaint alleges that the Company and certain of its executive officers misrepresented and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts concerning the Company’s financial performance and prospects, including that: (1) the Company's “merchandise miss” was not an isolated event, it would take at least several quarters to remedy and would have a material negative impact on the Company's financial results; (2) the Company's stores were experiencing increasingly poor performance and financial results; (3) defendants issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's operations and its business and financial results and outlook; and (4) based on the foregoing, defendants lacked a reasonable basis for their positive statements about the Company or its revenue outlook.

If you purchased Body Central common stock between November 10, 2011 and June 18, 2012, you may move the Court no later than October 29, 2012 to serve as Lead Plaintiff; however, you must meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the Class you need not take action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent Class member.
