According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Marriott's and Starwood's systems storing their customers' personal data were not secure; (2) there had been unauthorized access on Starwood's network since 2014; (3) consequently, the personal data of approximately 500 million Starwood guests and sensitive personal information of approximately 327 million of those guests may have been exposed to unauthorized parties; and (4) as a result, Marriott's public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
On November 30, 2018, Marriott disclosed that it had identified a data breach in its Starwood reservation database that may have exposed the personal information of up to 500 million guests. An unauthorized party may have had access to names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, passport numbers, date of birth information, and travel details for approximately 327 million guests. Marriott also disclosed that "[f]or some, the information also includes payment card numbers and payment card expiration dates."
On this news, Marriott's stock fell $6.81 per share or over 5.5% to close at $115.03 per share on November 30, 2018, damaging investors.
