Deadline Approaching for Ibotta, Inc. Investors to Join Class Action Lawsuit

Ibotta, Inc., a technology company known for connecting brands with consumers through digital promotions, is currently facing a class action lawsuit. Investors who acquired publicly traded securities of Ibotta (NYSE: IBTA) during the company's initial public offering (IPO) are being urged to take action before the upcoming deadline on June 16, 2025. This opportunity may be critical for those who experienced substantial losses following the IPO.

What’s Happening?

The law firm Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP has announced that those who purchased shares of Ibotta on or around April 18, 2024, can now seek appointment as the lead plaintiff in this class action suit, aptly titled Fortune v. Ibotta, Inc. (case number 25-cv-01213 in the U.S. District Court for Colorado). The lawsuit alleges that Ibotta and its executives engaged in securities fraud by failing to provide critical information regarding the company's risks related to contracts with major clients such as The Kroger Co. and Walmart Inc.

As detailed in the allegations, Ibotta sold around 2.5 million shares at a hefty price of $88 each during its IPO. However, the firm claims that essential disclosures were lacking. Particularly, investors were not adequately warned about the at-will nature of their contract with Kroger, which means Kroger could terminate the agreement without prior notice. The failure to disclose these risks might have misleadingly inflated Ibotta’s stock price following the IPO.

Risk for Investors

The implications for investors are significant. By June 16, 2025, those who faced considerable financial setbacks from the declining stock price post-IPO can signify their interest in being the lead plaintiff. According to the firm, leading plaintiffs typically possess the greatest financial interest in the case, reflecting the financial impact of the alleged wrongdoings on the investor class. It’s important for potential lead plaintiffs to note that their selection does not restrict or diminish their ability to recover any lost investments along with other class members.

Numerous allegations and insights into Ibotta's business strategy become evident through this class action suit. Ibotta's performance within the stock market has not lived up to its IPO expectations, as shares traded significantly lower than the original offering price of $88 as per trading data from April 17, 2025.
