Foti, Jr., remind investors that they have until October 7, 2019 to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against 2U, Inc. (NasdaqGS: TWOU), if they purchased the Company's securities between February 25, 2019 and July 30, 2019, inclusive (the "Class Period"). This action is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

About the Lawsuit

2U and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On July 30, 2019, 2U, an education technology company providing online graduate programs, disclosed a range of disappointing financial news including a larger-than-expected loss for 2Q2019, a cut to its fiscal 2019 guidance from a net loss of between $79.M and $77.2M to $157.5M and $151.5M, and that it "will moderate [its] grad program launch cadence."

On this news, the price of 2U's shares plummeted nearly 65% on unusually heavy trading volume.

The case is Harper v. 2U. Inc., et al., 1:19-cv-07390.
