Class Action Lawsuit Filed by Monteverde & Associates
In a significant legal move,
Monteverde & Associates PC, known as the M&A Firm, has initiated a class action lawsuit on behalf of former shareholders of
The ODP Corporation. This lawsuit was filed in the
United States District Court for the
Southern District of Florida on August 19, 2026, under the case title
Zappia v. The ODP Corporation, Inc. et al. (Case No. 926-cv-81028-AMC).
The lawsuit centers around claims made by a group of individuals and entities who held common stock of ODP as of
October 21, 2025, and maintained their shares until
December 10, 2025. These stakeholders assert that the acquisition of ODP by
Atlas Holdings LLC was conducted at an unfair price, thereby violating provisions under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The primary legal assertions are framed under
Sections 14(a) and
20(a) of the Act, alongside
SEC Rule 14a-9. These sections pertain to proxy solicitations and the issuance of misleading statements that can adversely affect shareholders. The claims highlight concerns that shareholders may not have been fully informed about the ramifications of the acquisition and the pricing strategies employed.
Juan Monteverde, the lead attorney at the firm, has made himself available for discussion concerning this case. Interested parties wishing to serve as lead plaintiffs are advised to apply by
November 3, 2026. Any member of the proposed Class can move to serve as lead plaintiff through their chosen counsel or can remain an absent member of the class.
