The report states Crown made "misleading statements and omitted important facts" in their filings. Sanford Lewis, a noted attorney in the area of corporate accountability, documented $70.7 million in costs and risks which were undisclosed by Crown.

The report refers to the undisclosed information as "a hidden ledger sheet" and raises still other issues pertaining to the Crown's general lack of accountability.

Crown could face considerable difficulties as a result of its failure to disclose vital information to its shareholders.
