In an essential update for investors in Capri Holdings Limited (NYSE: CPRI), ClaimsFiler reminds affected shareholders that they have until
February 21, 2025, to file lead plaintiff applications in a class action lawsuit concerning significant reporting discrepancies during the financial performance period. The legal proceedings are ongoing in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware.
This class action lawsuit pertains to investors who either purchased the company’s shares or sold puts on Capri between
August 10, 2023, and October 24, 2024. The heart of the matter lies in allegations that Capri Holdings and specific executives failed to disclose critical information which could influence investor decisions, violating federal securities laws in the process.
The catalyst for the lawsuit originated from a merger announcement on August 10, 2023, wherein Tapestry, Inc. revealed its plan to acquire Capri for
$57 per share in cash. However, the situation took a dramatic turn when, on
October 24, 2024, a ruling by Judge Jennifer L. Rochon of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York halted the acquisition following a motion from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. This motion was based on compelling evidence suggesting that the defendants believed their brands were direct competitors in the 'accessible luxury handbag market', contrasting with their public claims. As a result of this ruling, Capri Holdings’ stock plummeted nearly
50%, substantially impacting shareholder investments.
