What is this Case About: On February 15, 2022, Ericsson issued a press release detailing its work in Iraq and noting "[u]nusual expense claims in Iraq, dating back to 2018, triggered a review that uncovered compliance concerns about breaches of the company's Code of Business Ethics." The press release provided details of the investigation and the outcomes, including terminating employees and third-party relationships and continued evaluation of the Company's remediation plans.

On February 16, 2022, news outlets reported that Ericsson may have made payments to the ISIS terrorist organization to gain access to certain transport routes in Iraq. On this news, Ericsson's ADS price fell $1.44 per share, or 11.57%, to close at $11.01 per ADS on February 16, 2022.

Then, on February 27, 2022, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists published a report on Ericsson's alleged dealings with ISIS in Iraq, revealing that Ericsson had reportedly made "tens of millions of dollars in suspicious payments" over nearly a decade to keep its business in the country. The report also alleged that "a spreadsheet lists company probes into possible bribery, money laundering and embezzlement by employees in Angola, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Brazil, China, Croatia, Libya, Morocco, the United States and South Africa[,]" which "have not been previously disclosed." On this news, Ericsson's ADS prices fell $0.84 per ADS, or 8.3%, to close at $9.28 per ADS on February 28, 2022.
