The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of the defendants' failure to disclose in the Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the IPO that Candy Crush Saga had become a weight on King Digital that was hampering and would continue to hamper the Company's financial results due to a reduction in the number of active users playing Candy Crush Saga.
