Temple-Inland is focused on customers’ needs and product quality — the cor- nerstones of an economically sustainable company. Corrugated Packaging The principal product of Temple-Inland’s corrugated pack- aging business is containerboard, which is used to create corrugated packaging and is the largest segment of the U.S. paper market. Containerboard is made using softwood fiber, and Temple-Inland’s 2 million acres of forestland provide the majority of its fiber requirements. In addition, old cor- rugated containers (OCC) furnish 32 percent of Temple- Inland’s fiber at its paperboard mills. Our Maysville, Kentucky and Ontario, California mills produce 100 percent recycled corrugated containers. In 2003, the corrugated packaging business encompassed 84 facilities including five containerboard mills, one corrugating medium mill, and 78 converting or other operations. These locations were dis- persed throughout the continental United States with loca- tions in Mexico and Puerto Rico. In 2003, the corrugated packaging operation accounted for approximately 58 per- cent of the company’s revenue.

    Case: 13-10928 Document: 00513076785 Page: 1 Date Filed: 06/12/2015 IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit No. 13-10928 FILED June 12, 2015 BRUCE OWENS, Lyle W. Cayce Clerk Plaintiff - Appellant v. KENNETH M. JASTROW, II; KENNETH R. DUBUQUE; RONALD D. MURFF; CRAIG E. GIFFORD, Defendants - Appellees Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas Before JOLLY, OWEN, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges. STEPHEN A. HIGGINSON, Circuit Judge: This case arises out of one of the largest bank failures in United States history. In August 2009, in the wake of the financial and housing crises, Guaranty Bank’s parent company filed for bankruptcy. Plaintiffs represent a putative class of former Guaranty stockholders whose equity interests were wiped out when Guaranty failed. They bring federal securities law claims against four former Guaranty executives, alleging that the executives made materially false and misleading statements regarding Guaranty’s assets. The district court dismissed the claims. For the following reasons, we AFFIRM. Case: 13-10928 Document: 00513076785 Page: 2 Date Filed: 06/12/2015 No. 13-10928 FACTS AND PROCEEDINGS Temple-Inland, Inc. (“Temple”) was a holding company that operated a packaging and manufacturing business and a financial services business, Guaranty Financial Group Inc., (“GFG”) which, in turn, owned Guaranty Bank (the “Bank”).1 On November 29, 2007, Temple announced that its board of directors had approved a spin-off transaction that would leave GFG as independent owner of the Bank. According to plaintiffs, Temple decided to spin off Guaranty because it was concerned about Guaranty’s solvency, and about various cross-default covenants that would jeopardize Temple’s own solvency if Guaranty became insolvent.
