Investor Alert: Kaplan Fox Investigates Magnite, Inc. (MGNI)
NEW YORK, Jan. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP (www.kaplanfox.com) is investigating potential claims against Magnite, Inc. ("Magnite" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: MGNI) for violations of the federal securities laws.
On January 7, 2021, after the market opened, Spruce Point Capital Management, LLC ("Spruce Point") issued a report titled "A Repellent Investment" that states "Magnite, Inc (Nasdaq: MGNI) was formed in early 2020 by a merger of two advertising technology companies - Telaria (formerly Tremor Video) and Rubicon Project. The merger was predicated on cost, and not revenue synergies, and bringing a Connected TV ("CTV") product to Rubicon that it couldn't build alone. Spruce Point finds evidence to suggest that both companies were hampered with business and accounting struggles prior to the merger."
The Spruce Point report further states that "[w]e believe they have continued to mask challenges with inaccurate financial reporting. Magnite's pro forma organic sales are down -1% YTD with peers +16%. Multiple customer interviews all tell us that Magnite does not have much quality CTV inventory to currently sell. A recent subtle change in Magnite's financial covenant from "Adjusted EBITDA" to "Maximum Cash Burn" suggests further pressures could lie ahead." The full report can be downloaded and viewed at www.sprucepointcap.com.
On January 7, 2021, Magnite shares declined as much as 13% from an opening price of $26.94 per share, and closed at $25.61 per share, a decline of $1.70 per share or over 6% on heavier than usual volume.
