Shareholder Alert: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Announces Investigation of Blount International Inc.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Blount International, Inc.  ("Blount International" or the "Company") (NYSE: BLT).  The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws.

On August 7, 2013, shares of Blount International fell $1.13 or 8.84% to close at $11.66 after the Company announced that it would need to amend its 2012 10-K and first quarter 2013 10-Q to reflect material weaknesses in Blount International's internal controls over financial reporting. As a result, Blount International would not be able to timely file its second quarter 10-Q for 2013, and it may need to restate its 2012 financial statements to reflect an impairment of goodwill.
