About the Lawsuits
FIGS and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period and/or in the Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in conjunction with the initial and/or secondary public offerings, violating federal securities laws.
On May 12, 2022, the Company released disappointing 1Q2022 financial results and full year outlook for 2022, disclosing declines in expected 2022 net revenues, adjusted gross EBITDA margin, and expected gross margin, due to a “significant increase in the Company’s use of air freight to help mitigate supply chain challenges,” and that “[f]or the rest of the year, we plan to significantly increase our use of airfreight to reduce our exposure to these unpredictable transit times,” despite the Company’s prior reassurances regarding its ability to maintain an efficient and steady supply chain. On this news, the price of FIGS’ shares plummeted, falling approximately 25% to close at $9.64 per share.
The first-filed case is Ryan v. Figs, Inc., et al., No. 22-cv-7939.
A subsequent case was filed, City Of Hallandale Beach Police Officers And Firefighters Personnel Retirement Trust v. Figs, Inc., et al., No. 22-cv-8912.
