Krispy Kreme sales started slipping three years ago as the company expanded its operations during the height of the low-carbohydrate diet craze. Executives also had to sort out an accounting mess, with the company’s board concluding that two former executives were trying to “manage earnings” to meet Wall Street expectations.

While the stock once traded above $50, it fell to about $4 during 2006.
