Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, Representing Investors of R.H. Donnelley Corporation, Announces Class Action Lawsuit

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants knew or recklessly disregarded that their public statements concerning RH Donnelley’s business and financial performance were materially false and misleading. Specifically, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (a) the Company, in violation of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), was not adequately reserving for its bad debts; (b) as a result, its financial results were materially misstated; (c) downward pressure on the Company’s advertising revenue was not exclusively the result of cyclical challenges, but was also due to a permanent shift in customers moving away from print yellow pages advertising; (d) the Company’s liquidity concerns and exposure to ratings downgrades were much greater than it had previously disclosed; and (e) given the turmoil in the U.S. economy and the trends related to a shift away from print advertising, the Company had no reasonable basis to make projections about its 2008 results.
