Investors of Nextracker Inc. Invited to Join Class Action Lawsuit Following Significant Losses
Class Action Opportunity for Nextracker Investors
Investors who purchased shares of Nextracker Inc. between February 1, 2024, and August 1, 2024, are being invited to take part in a class-action lawsuit against the company. Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP is leading the charge for those who suffered substantial financial losses during this period. The deadline for investors to seek the lead plaintiff position is set for February 25, 2025.
This class action pertains to the Weber v. Nextracker Inc., filed in the Northern District of California. The lawsuit accuses Nextracker, alongside some of its top executives, of breaching the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 due to misleading statements concerning the company’s financial health. As a leading provider of software solutions for solar panel operations, Nextracker has faced scrutiny for its alleged failure to disclose the severity of project delays affecting its performance.
Allegations Against Nextracker
The allegations detail that throughout the class period, Nextracker’s executives failed to properly communicate the impacts of a backlog in project timelines, permitting delays, and interconnection issues on their operational results. Specifically, they obscured the fact that these issues have significantly hindered the company’s ability to convert backlog into revenue as expected. Moreover, the lawsuit claims that Nextracker had been unable to increase demand and pull forward other projects effectively, contradicting earlier assertions from executive leadership.
An alarming revelation came to light on August 1, 2024. Nextracker publicly announced a staggering decline in earnings, with revenue dropping from $737 million in the previous quarter to $720 million, and gross profits seeing a similar downturn from $340 million to $237 million. This announcement marked the first time the company failed to raise its revenue guidance since its IPO, indicating potential slowdowns ahead. Following the disclosure, Nextracker's stock saw a sharp decline of approximately 15% over just two trading days.
The Role of the Lead Plaintiff
Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, any individual who bought shares during the specified class period can pursue the position of lead plaintiff. The chosen lead plaintiff will represent the class in directing the litigation and can select a legal firm of their choice to undertake the case. It is crucial to note that the ability to partake in any future recoveries from the lawsuit does not require serving in this capacity.
