In the report, the analyst notes:

"UCBH announced that as part of its effort in restating the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, and finalizing and issuing the Company's financial statements for the first and second quarters of 2009, extensive effort is being applied to accurately reflect the credit risk inherent in the loan portfolio. To assist with the effort to reassess a majority of the Company's loan portfolio, including substantially all of the construction loans, the Company engaged three external loan review firms.

"Since mid-September 2009, there have been no less than 15 class action lawsuits filed on behalf of investors in UCBH who feel they were subjected to significant financial losses by the Company through its 'deceptive' financial reporting practices and 'blatant fraud' on the part of the Company, its senior management, as well as its executive officers."
