How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • stating that a somewhat similar statement “accurately describes how value is realized when options are actually exercised”
  • explaining that representations made in a proxy statement contradicted plaintiff’s allegations that challenged statements were materially false or misleading
  • stating that FASB Statement No. 123 recommends recognizing “options’ grant-date value as part of compensation expense” in financial statements but “does not purport to address the requirements for reporting proposed compensation in a proxy statement”
  • interpreting SEC compensation disclosure regulations and stating that “[i]n interpreting an administrative regulation, as in interpreting a statute, we must begin by examining the language of the provision at issue.”
  • company had no obligation to disclose Blaclc-Scholes value of stock options paid to directors because disclosures in proxy statement completely and accurately described director compensation
