STEVENSON, Md., Nov. 19, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of Party City Holdco Inc. (NYSE:PRTY) (“Party City” or the “Company”) securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the Company’s April 16, 2015 initial public offering (“IPO”).  Investors who wish to become proactively involved in the litigation have until January 19, 2016 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of the defendants’ failure to disclose in connection with its IPO certain risks including soft consumer traffic trends, the extraordinary performance of the competing Disney Frozen franchise, and the need for and disruption from store remerchandising.

According to the complaint, after the true details of these risks came to light up to the time the lawsuit was filed, including during an August 13, 2015 conference call, referencing the Disney Frozen licensed product and the anticipated disruptions from store remerchandising, and through a November 12, 2015 Company press release explaining among other things how the Disney Frozen product-line had created an anomaly in the Company’s business, the value of Party City shares declined significantly.
