Affirm Holdings, Inc. (AFRM) Securities Fraud Class Action:
The lawsuit focuses on Affirm's use of social media in connection with its release of partial quarterly financial results.
According to the complaint, Affirm planned to announce its financial results for the second quarter of its fiscal 2022 after the markets closed on Feb. 10, 2022.
On Feb. 10, 2022, at approximately 1:15 pm (before the market closed), Affirm's official Twitter account issued a Tweet containing some of the company's Q2 2022 financial results, stating: "Another great quarter on the books [] as we accelerated our growth. Leveraging our superior technology & putting people first = increasing total # of transactions by 218%, active consumers by 150%, GMV by 115%, & revenue by 77%! Tune in today at 2pm PT…" In response, the price of Affirm shares rose about 10% during intraday trading.
The complaint alleges Affirm's Tweet materially misled investors because it failed to disclose the full details of Affirm's Q2 2022 financial results.
After Affirm's Tweet and before the market closed on Feb. 10, 2022, Affirm deleted its Tweet and released its full Q2 2022 financial results, which were far less impressive than investors were led to believe, including a quarterly loss of $0.57/share – far worse than the $0.37/share loss analysts expected.
On this news, the price of Affirm's shares plummeted lower.
"We're focused on investors' losses and proving Affirm intentionally released partial data for its Q2 to soften the blow when its full Q2 results became known," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
