Investors Target Charter Communications Amid Class Action Lawsuit Over Alleged Misconduct

Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Charter Communications

On August 22, 2025, Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP announced significant legal action against Charter Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: CHTR). This class action lawsuit targets the company on behalf of investors who acquired its securities, which includes call options and sellers of put options, during the defined class period from July 26, 2024, to July 24, 2025.

The Allegations Against Charter

The lawsuit underscores serious allegations regarding the company’s transparency and business operations. According to the complaint, Charter has made numerous misleading statements that have materially affected its investors. Here are some critical allegations highlighted in the complaint:
1. Concealed Impact of Program Cancellation: Charter failed to disclose the repercussions stemming from the cancellation of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which the lawsuit suggests was a pivotal event the company could not manage effectively.
2. Revenue Decline: The complaint asserts that the ending of the ACP adversely influenced Charter’s Internet customer base, leading to significant revenue declines — information that was never communicated to investors.
3. Lack of Operational Strategy: It accuses Charter of not executing any operational strategies aimed at counteracting the negative effects experienced due to the end of the ACP.
4. Risky Business Outlook: According to the lawsuit, the decline in Internet customers combined with the inadequacies in Charter’s operational execution has inflated risks far beyond what was disclosed to investors, undermining the touted growth prospects.
5. Misleading Optimism: Defendants allegedly conveyed overly optimistic statements regarding the company's future trajectory and EBITDA growth, which were unfounded at all relevant times.
