On February 13, 2018, Belden and senior management disclosed the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective.  More specifically, they disclosed internal control weakness led to inappropriate recognition of revenue within the Grass Valley business unit.

More recently, on December 3, 2018, Belden and senior management disclosed the Securities and Exchange Commission is conducting an investigation related to the weakness.

This news drove the price of Belden shares down $5.43, or about 9.7%, to close at $50.45 on December 4, 2018.
