NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / April 28, 2016 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC, notifies investors of class action against Teekay Corporation ("Teekay" or the "Company") (NYSE: TK). The class action has been filed in the United States District Court of Connecticut on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased Teekay securities during the period between June 30, 2015 and December 17, 2015 inclusive (the "Class Period").

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

Teekay started as a regional shipping company and tanker operator. Today, Teekay is the world's largest marine energy transportation, storage and production company, Diversified fleet has over $12 billion in assets and some of the largest fleets in the Company's core markets.

On December 16, 2015, Teekay announced that its "Board of Directors would be reducing the Company's quarterly dividend to 0.055 per share, down from 0.55 per share in the third quarter of 2015, commencing with the fourth quarter of 2015 dividend payable in February 2016." Following this news, Teekay stock dropped 58%.

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Teekay's repeated assurances that it would maintain a quarterly dividend of at least $0.55 per share were baseless; (2) Teekay knew that it could not support forthcoming dividend payments of more than $0.55 per share; (3) the cash flows from the Company's master limited partnerships ("MLPs") - Teekay LNG Partners LP ("TGP") and Teekay Offshore Partners LP ("TOO") - could not withstand these high dividends; and (4) Teekay misinformed the market about the strength of its business and financial condition.
