Unhappy Holidays for Hasbro Investors

News Page

Published December 5, 2024

After dismal holiday sales, toy manufacturer Hasbro left investors holding a lump of coal. When investors quickly dumped their shares, Hasbro’s stock plummeted 11% overnight. Some of those angry shareholders have now filed a class action lawsuit against Hasbro hoping to recover their lost investment.

During the early stages of the Covid pandemic, Hasbro loaded up on inventory due to the increased demand for at-home activities. Unfortunately, the company over-bought and was left with warehouses full of unwanted games and toys. Hasbro executives assured investors that these extra toys were actually in anticipation for the 2022 holiday season, but in reality, demand for Hasbro’s products had diminished.

Investors learned the truth in October 2023: the toy giant failed to sell the excess inventory, which remained in warehouses. Executives announced a one-time, $55 million expenditure to aggressively market and apply heavy discounts to the merchandise.

Stunned investors quickly sold off their Hasbro shares, cause the stock’s price to freefall. Now, some of those shareholders are signing up for the class action lawsuit.

Toronto-Dominion Bank Fined by U.S., Sued by Investors

News Page

Published November 26, 2024

Investors were shocked when banking giant Toronto-Dominion Bank recently announced a settlement with the U.S. government over failures in the bank’s anti-money laundering systems.  The settlement terms not only required Toronto-Dominion to pay a massive fine, but also to restructure its books.  Stunned investors dumped their shares, causing Toronto-Dominion’s share price to plummet 10% in just two days.  Now angry shareholders have filed a class action lawsuit against the bank, adding to the Company’s legal woes.  

According to that lawsuit, throughout much of 2024, Toronto-Dominion’s executives issued remarks reassuring investors about the Company’s ability to comply with U.S. anti-money laundering laws.  Even after the bank became the target of a U.S. government probe, executives downplayed the likelihood of a major fine and told investors that the company would continue to do business as usual.  In reality, those executives knew the U.S. Government was likely to hit Toronto-Dominion with massive fines and force the bank to restructure.

Investors learned the truth in October when Toronto-Dominion issued a press release announcing its settlement with the U.S. government.  The bank paid over three billion dollars in fines, and the government capped Toronto-Dominion’s total assets, forcing the bank to restructure its balance sheet and reduce its total assets by 10%.  

When investors discovered this settlement, they quickly offloaded their shares.  Some of those upset investors are now signing up for the class action lawsuit in hopes of recovering their lost investment.

News Page

Published November 15, 2024

Investors have chilly feelings about Iris Energy Limited after the bitcoin mining operation recently lost big. While Iris sold investors on hopes of a high-power computing facility, in reality, investors got left in the dark when that computing facility had inadequate facilities to get the job done. Aggrieved investors pulled the plug on Iris stock, which dropped 15% in one day. Some of those investors recently filed a class action lawsuit in hopes of recovering their losses.

According to the lawsuit, in 2023 Iris issued a press release announcing it was opening new, high-powered data processing centers, shifting its focus from cryptocurrency mining. Public statements also emphasized these centers’ cooling efficiency, which is important because high-powered computing uses a great deal of energy. In reality, Iris’ executives knew this new site was ill-equipped for use as a data center and that the cooling systems were sub-par. Despite that knowledge, Iris’ executives fraudulently allowed these over-the-top promises to be published anyhow.

The truth came to light when Culper Research published a disturbing report revealing that Iris had severely oversold its abilities, particularly at its Texas site in Childress County. After this report came out, shocked investors dumped their shares, causing Iris’ price to plummet.

WM Technologies gave investors a high when the Company published overly rosy numbers on the Company’s financial reports.  But those figures went up in smoke after the SEC announced an investigation of the cannabis company’s fraudulent financials.  Angry investors quickly dumped their shares, causing the stock to tumble.  Those investors have now filed a class-action lawsuit against the Company in hopes of recovering some of their “green.”

WM is an online cannabis marketplace.  In its quarterly SEC reports, WM includes metrics for its monthly active users and paying clients.   Between 2021 and 2022, the Company’s quarterly reports showed it regularly increased those key figures.  But, according to the lawsuit, WM’s executives should have known those numbers were fraudulent and the result of misleading and deceptive accounting practices. 

The truth came to light in 2022 when the Company filed an SEC report revealing that an internal whistleblower had called out WM’s bogus method for counting active users and clients.  Then, in 2024 the SEC filed litigation against the company and its executives, based in part on those allegations.

Published November 11, 2024

Investors in artificial intelligence company iLearning Engines were shocked to discover that the company’s financial statements were artificial too.  A recent Hindenburg report revealed that most of company’s revenue was largely fake, making the company’s financial statements unreliable.  Following this news, investors pulled the plug on the stock, causing stock price to plummet 35% in one day.  Angry shareholders recently filed a class-action lawsuit hoping to recover some of their losses.

Terran Orbital Crashes- Shareholders Sue

News Page

Published November 10, 2024

Share prices for satellite manufacturer Terran Orbital crash-landed after its recent acquisition by Lockeed Martin. Investors allege that while Lockheed originally offered a sky-high price for Terran shares, when the final deal price was in the dirt. Angry shareholders are now suing Terran to recoup their losses.

According to the class action lawsuit, in 2023, Terran won a major, multi-billion dollar contract. Company executives assured investors the Terran had adequate cash reserves and resources to fund the contract. In reality, company executives knew Terran was cash-strapped, unable to fulfill the order, and thus unlikely to profit on this contract.

In April 2024, defense industry giant Lockheed Martin offered to buy out Terran at one dollar per share, but soon withdrew the offer. Terran later announced that it was short on cash and removed the major contract from its backlog, slashing the Company’s outstanding contracts by almost 90%.

Following this disappointing news, Terran announced that Lockheed had renewed its offer – this time at forty cents per share. The next day, Terran announced its final deal with Lockheed, which valued Terran at just twenty-five cents per share. Investors reacted negatively and Terran shares crashed 39% overnight. Some investors are now signing up for the class-action lawsuit in hopes of recouping their losses.

Natural gas company New Fortress Energy is facing a class action lawsuit filed by investors who claim the Company delivered nothing but a well of empty promises. In early 2024, New Fortress executives issued a gushing annual fiscal outlook which suggested the Company would double key financial metrics and close out key projects.  When investors learned these projections were just hot air, New Fortress stock plummeted 23% overnight, prompting investors to file suit.

After this revelation, investors lost confidence and began dumping STM stock and signing up for the class action lawsuit that was later filed.

This software and data company’s principal product is a data platform that provides customer contact and business information to sales and marketing teams.

ZoomInfo used a bevy of unethical tactics to retain customers including manipulative and coercive auto-renew policies and threats of litigation, and these tactics had materially damaged the Company’s customer relationships, client franchise, and competitive advantages.
