Deadline Reminder: Law Offices of Howard G. Smith Reminds Investors of Looming Deadline in the Class Action Lawsuit Against Jianpu Technology, Inc. (JT)

BENSALEM, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming April 19, 2021 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the case filed on behalf of investors who purchased Jianpu Technology, Inc. (“Jianpu” or the “Company”) (NYSE: JT) American Depositary Shares (“ADSs” or “shares”) between May 29, 2018 and February 16, 2021, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

Investors suffering losses on their Jianpu investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to [email protected].

On February 16, 2021, Jianpu announced the results of its review into “transactions carried out by the Credit Card Recommendation Business Unit” with third-party business entities. The Company concluded that previously reported revenue and associated expenses had been inflated due to “certain transactions [that] involved third-party agents (including both upstream agents and downstream suppliers) with undisclosed relationships and some transactions [that] lacked business substance.” Jianpu stated that it “anticipates the total amount of overstated revenue for the fiscal years 2018 and 2019 to be approximately, RMB 90 million and RMB 164 million, respectively, representing approximately 4.5% and 10.1% of the total revenue previously reported.”

On this news, the Company’s share price fell $0.60, or 13%, to close at $3.94 per share on February 16, 2021, on unusually heavy trading volume.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Jianpu ADSs during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than April 19, 2021 to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff if you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the class action you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the class action. If you wish to learn more about this class action, or if you have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G. Smith, Esquire, of Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, 3070 Bristol Pike, Suite 112, Bensalem, Pennsylvania 19020, by telephone at (215) 638-4847, toll-free at (888) 638-4847, or by email to [email protected], or visit our website at www.howardsmithlaw.com.

Jamf Continues to Innovate with Patented Workflows in the Enterprise, Healthcare and Education

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF), the standard in Apple Enterprise Management, is innovating with new patented workflows to streamline daily tasks and overcome challenges faced by customers in the enterprise, healthcare, and education spaces. Our customers are reaching their highest potentials with Apple devices powered by Jamf, and our current patented workflows are just the beginning. Jamf continues to partner with organizations to identify gaps in their existing workflows and find innovative solutions to fill these gaps and ensure a streamlined end-user process.

Virtual Visits

With Virtual Visits powered by Jamf, healthcare organizations can configure and instantly deploy third-party conferencing platforms like Zoom and Microsoft Teams to iPad or iPhone. Providers are able to virtually round to their patients and patients can connect with loved ones outside the hospital – all without IT ever having to touch the device. Further, once patients are discharged, Virtual Visits can automatically digitally wipe the device to prepare it for the next patient. This new workflow limits the amount of PPE care teams use during each patient encounter while still enabling them to provide quality care. Patients can also connect with their families, which can provide critical emotional support during this difficult time. Learn how Alberta Health Services automated the use of secure video conferencing tools to empower 10,000 virtual visits in 3 months: www.jamf.it/ahs-casestudy.

Jamf Assessment

COVID-19 forced schools to solve for a multitude of distance learning challenges, including how to deliver a high-stakes proctored assessment. Proctors required the ability to see and hear the student and their screens and be able to detect screenshots, all while securing the rest of the device. Schools were being told that iPad was not an acceptable option for proctored assessments. However, for many students, a school-provided iPad is their only access to technology. Working diligently with a school district and a national college placement exam provider, Jamf quickly created a solution that satisfies all exam requirements and allows school districts to use the technology already deployed in students’ homes. The Jamf Assessment app enables IT and proctors to securely administer a web-based exam while still maintaining the visibility and security required by the administering body using any modern video-conferencing tool.

“The Jamf Assessment app provided a solution to ensure that all of our students were afforded equity in the college admissions process. The fast work of Jamf allowed our students to make the most of all educational opportunities, even against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic and the challenges of remote learning,” said Brian Messinger, District Coordinator of Classroom IT & Student Achievement at Sewanhaka Central High School District.

Jamf Setup and Jamf Reset

Jamf Setup is a flexible app that integrates with Jamf Pro to allow for immediate, purpose-driven device provisioning and re-provisioning. Jamf Setup is as flexible as Jamf Pro and distills the power of the platform down to an intuitive app for IT and end-users that customizes each interaction with a device to fit their needs. Jamf Reset provides a secure re-provisioning process that guides users confidently through a two-step process to empower them to securely wipe a device and prepare it for the following user. Jamf Pro offers simplified shared use for iOS and iPadOS with Jamf Setup and Jamf Reset. While they can be used separately, Jamf Setup and Jamf Reset are best when paired together to provide end-to-end configuration management that’s easy and quick for end-users and effortless for IT.

Cathay Pacific Airways, headquartered in Hong Kong, selected Jamf’s Apple Enterprise Management platform to replace their legacy MDM solution for 5,000 iPads to be used for several airline-specific workflows, including electronic flight bags in cockpits, in-flight services in the cabins, and aircraft maintenance on the ground. Jamf Setup and Jamf Reset were integral components, providing shared, yet personalized, deployment of these iPads. This unique workflow led to Cathay Pacific to switch to Jamf in the middle of a global pandemic, which was significantly impacting their business. 

About Jamf

Jamf, the standard in Apple Enterprise Management, extends the legendary Apple experience people love to businesses, schools, and government organizations through its software and the world’s largest online community of IT admins focused exclusively on Apple, Jamf Nation.

Talage Releases Wheelhouse Ease of Use Update for Agents

This version introduces the ability to launch targeted, industry-specific landing pages which aid in customer acquisition of small commercial clients

RENO, Nev., Feb. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Talage, a provider of digital distribution software solutions for commercial insurance, is pleased to announce an update to the company’s Wheelhouse technology, a platform that streamlines the insurance purchasing process for small businesses and provides a digital solution for agents by automating traditionally manual processes.

“Agents are as pressed for time and resources as everyone else in the current environment,” said Adam Kiefer, CEO of Talage. “Spending the same amount of time on a small commercial account as a large commercial account typically just isn’t possible considering the difference in the size of the average policy and premium. So, additional automation of manual processes and templating of industry-specific landing pages for quick launch by agents serving the small commercial segment is important to us, and something we were keen to offer in this latest update of Wheelhouse.”

Opportunities for a direct interface between insurance agents and customers are vital to the modern insurance landscape. This update allows for the creation of easily modified, tailored targeted landing pages. Wheelhouse is now capable of focusing on specific industries, lawyers, barbers, and doctors, for example, allowing for the creation of directed campaigns driving traffic from any digital channel to the agency landing page. Wheelhouse also now allows for custom branding for agents and agencies, while automating leads with self-service quote requests and providing for robust reporting on started and completed quotes.

Wheelhouse gives insurance companies and other financial institutions the ability to quickly and easily equip appointed agencies with an online presence via user-friendly agent portals, as well as additional tools to support agency automation and growth in the small business segment. Through Wheelhouse, Talage currently powers the online purchase of workers’ compensation, liability, and property insurance by small businesses in all 50 states.

Leading Analyst Report Reveals Top Vendors Based on Product Features and Satisfaction, Along with Vendor Experience and Capabilities

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — KeyedIn, a leading provider of Agile Portfolio Management software, today announced that it was named a leader in the 2021 Project Portfolio Management Data Quadrant from SoftwareReviews, a division of IT research and consulting firm Info-Tech Research Group.

SoftwareReviews recognized KeyedIn as a leader for reaching a top 5 composite score, which represents the complete and aggregated satisfaction score from end users.

Without appropriate visibility, portfolio managers might steer their projects in a direction that is misaligned with business priorities for a long time. In a market that has poor adoption rates and little feature differentiation, vendors who score high in our Data Quadrant report, such as KeyedIn, demonstrate that they stand out for executive-level visibility that is flexible, simple, and allows decision-makers to focus on impactful business decisions.”

KeyedIn received leading satisfaction scores in a variety of areas representing vendor capabilities and product features, including:

  • Vendor Support
  • Ease of Implementation
  • Ease of IT Administration
  • Availability and Quality of Training

KeyedIn also received an Emotional Footprint score of +90, receiving perfect scores on being respectful and efficient. The Emotional Footprint reports on the aggregated emotional response ratings in the areas of service, negotiation, product impact, conflict resolution, and strategy and innovation. Other Emotional Footprint metrics in which KeyedIn ranked highly include:

  • Saving Customer’s Time
  • Being Reliable
  • Enabling Productivity
  • Putting Client’s Interests First

“We are extremely proud to be recognized by Info-Tech as a Leader and Gold Medalist in Project Portfolio Management, further validating not just the strength and breadth of our software but also our ongoing commitment to our customers,” said Lauri Klaus, CEO for KeyedIn. “We continue to innovate and offer a suite of SaaS-based PPM solutions that support business transformation, strategy realization and organizational change.”

EBIX BREAKING ALERT: ROSEN, A TOP RANKED LAW FIRM, Encourages Ebix, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline – EBIX

EBIX BREAKING ALERT: ROSEN, A TOP RANKED LAW FIRM, Encourages Ebix, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline – EBIX

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Ebix, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBIX) between November 9, 2020 and February 19, 2021, inclusive (the “Class Period”). A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than April 23, 2021.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Ebix securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Ebix class action, go to http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases-register-2041.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] or [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than April 23, 2021. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience or resources. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 3 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020 founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) there was insufficient audit evidence to determine the business purpose of certain significant unusual transactions in Ebix’s gift card business in India during the fourth quarter of 2020; (2) there was a material weakness in Company’s internal controls over the gift or prepaid revenue transaction cycle; (3) the Company’s independent auditor was reasonably likely to resign over disagreements with Ebix regarding $30 million that had been transferred into a commingled trust account of Ebix’s outside legal counsel; and (4) 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.

To join the Ebix class action, go to http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases-register-2041.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] or [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

The ONE HBCU Fest is a groundbreaking series of ideas summits that showcases next-gen African American innovators and entrepreneurs, promoting HBCUs as engines of economic growth for building equity and wealth in the digital economy.

Over the next several months, the 2021 ONE HBCU FEST will host a series of summits focused on different aspects of the digital economy. Each summit will promote the theme “We Are Stronger Together,” which serves as the rallying cry to for HBCUs as world-class institutions that will be the agents of change to create solutions aimed at transforming the world. Each month the series will host similar forums in various areas of business and technology—each offering a power-packed discussion with cutting-edge thinkers and doers. As a series of solution-oriented, informative and thought-provoking conversations, the ONE HBCU FEST summits will feature fireside chats, live Q&A and interactive panel discussions with a curated group of some of the most interesting minds across industries and sectors. The summits will also leverage the rich intellectual resources within the HBCU community and promote the idea of HBCUs as centers of excellence to address systemic issues (social, economic, technology, health, etc.) impacting HBCUs, alumni and the Black community.

The inaugural summit will be held virtually on Feb. 27 and will focus on illuminating pathways for success that link African Americans to career opportunities in the multibillion-dollar E-sports and video game industry. 

“We believe the timing couldn’t be better to launch ONE HBCU FEST. It represents a unique opportunity to bring together the vanguard of HBCU and community thinkers, leaders and innovators. This series of events is tailored for convening HBCU students, alumni as well as thought leaders within the Black community and allies to exchange ideas, insights and thoughts on some of the most important topics impacting HBCUs and the Black community. We are living in an extraordinary time where serious issues and big challenges are facing Black communities and HBCUs from multiple perspectives. Our summits will engage the next generation of African American leaders and promote discussions about the future of the Black community. This is a platform that we believe is crafted for the moment and will amplify the power of ideas, information and conversation with the speed and scale of our culture, and inspire and motivate generations into collaborative action,” said Imari Oliver, founder and CEO of Bond & Play and ONE HBCU FEST.

“The ONE HBCU FEST is a groundbreaking opportunity for the HBCU community to showcase its intellectual power and ideas for solutions in various aspects of business and technology. HBCUs have been at the forefront of these discussions before and certainly have produced outstanding leaders in business and technology. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase our leadership and offer insights for how the HBCU experience prepares next-gen African American entrepreneurial leaders across business and technology industry sectors. HBCUs are important catalysts for social change and engines for economic growth within the Black community, and the summits will help to further highlight the important role that HBCUs play for our community,” said Chad Womack, Ph.D., senior director, STEM programs and initiatives, UNCF.

“HBCU’s have been an integral part of the rich History of Ebony and Jet. What an amazing opportunity to reconnect and support an event that highlights the importance of these institutions. We are a proud media partner of ONE HBCU FEST,” said Michele Thornton Ghee, CEO | Ebony & Jet.

It’s time to collaborate, innovate and build. We look forward to you joining us on Feb. 27 at https://onehbcu.us. Registration is now open.
