CASE ALLEGATIONS: STMicroelectronics, together with its subsidiaries, designs, develops, manufactures, and sells semiconductor products.
The STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts concerning the true state of STMicroelectronics’ forecasting ability; notably, that STMicroelectronics did not truly have appropriate visibility to generate guidance it put forth, failed to appropriately analyze the visibility it did have, or otherwise STMicroelectronics was simply not equipped to handle the ongoing challenges in its end-market industries as they had projected.
The STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit further alleges that on April 25, 2024, STMicroelectronics announced its first quarter of fiscal year 2024 financial results, disclosing negatively revised full year 2024 revenue and margin projections “‘driven by lower revenues in Automotive and Industrial’” and stating that “‘[d]uring the quarter, Automotive semiconductor demand slowed down compared to our expectations, entering a deceleration phase, while the ongoing Industrial correction accelerated.’” The STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit further alleges that STMicroelectronics also disclosed an 18.4% decline in first quarter revenue year-over-year, amounting to $3.47 billion, and that net sales to original equipment manufacturers and through distribution channels decreased by 11.5% and 30.8%, respectively, on a year-over-year basis. On this news, the price of STMicroelectronics stock fell, the STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit alleges.
The STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit further alleges that on July 25, 2024, STMicroelectronics released its second quarter of fiscal year 2024 financial results, revealing reduced revenue guidance and noting that “‘[d]uring the quarter, contrary to our prior expectations, customer orders for Industrial did not improve and Automotive demand declined. . . . We will now drive the Company based on a plan for FY24 revenues in the range of $13.2 billion to $13.7 billion. Within this plan, we expect a gross margin of about 40%.’” On this news, the price of STMicroelectronics stock fell more than 15%, according to the STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit.
THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired STMicroelectronics securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the STMicroelectronics class action lawsuit.
