Coupang, Inc. Faces Class Action Lawsuit Over Investor Losses
On January 6, 2026, legal firm Levi & Korsinsky, LLP announced a class action lawsuit against Coupang, Inc. (NYC: CPNG), focusing on alleged securities fraud that impacted shareholders. This lawsuit stems from a series of events between August 6, 2025, and December 16, 2025, where several allegations highlight serious cybersecurity issues within the company.
Allegations and Details
The crux of the claims made in this lawsuit is the assertion that Coupang failed to maintain robust cybersecurity protocols. According to the complaint, a former employee of the company was able to access sensitive customer information without detection for nearly six months. This breach purportedly exposed the company to heightened legal and regulatory scrutiny, with significant implications for investors and stakeholders.
Moreover, the lawsuit points out that Coupang’s management did not disclose this breach in their required reports to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) despite knowledge of the incident. This omission has led to claims that the statements made by the defendants regarding the company’s operations were misleading and materially false, causing investors to suffer losses as the company’s true operational risks were not communicated accurately.
What Investors Need to Know
For those who have invested in Coupang during the specified timeframe, it is crucial to note that the deadline to request to be appointed as a lead plaintiff in this case is February 17, 2026. Being appointed as a lead plaintiff could provide a stronger advantage in determining the course of the lawsuit and recovering losses.
