Six Flags Under Scrutiny: Investors Unite in Class Action Lawsuit for Justice
Investor Class Action Against Six Flags Entertainment Corporation
In a significant legal move, the law firm Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP has announced a class action lawsuit against Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, formerly known as CopperSteel HoldCo, Inc. (NYSE: FUN). This lawsuit is crucial for investors who have faced substantial losses following the merger with Cedar Fair, L.P. The deadline for investors to lead this class action suit is January 5, 2026.
The case is titled City of Livonia Employees' Retirement System v. Six Flags Entertainment Corporation and has been filed in the Northern District of Ohio. The lawsuit claims that Six Flags and its top executives violated the Securities Act of 1933 by failing to disclose critical information regarding the company's financial health leading up to the merger that took place on July 1, 2024.
Allegations of Financial Mismanagement
The registration statement related to the merger allegedly concealed that Six Flags had been suffering from chronic underinvestment, requiring millions of dollars in additional capital for renovations and operational upgrades. Despite claims by executives about successful transformational initiatives, it was revealed that Legacy Six Flags had serious financial shortcomings, significantly needed funds to compete effectively in the crowded amusement park market.
After becoming CEO in November 2021, Selim Bassoul initiated drastic cost-cutting measures, which included slashing the employee count. These actions, aimed at improving profitability, compromised the operational capabilities and customer experiences within the parks. According to the lawsuit, this negligence played a pivotal role in the company’s downfall post-merger.
Once the merger closed, the stock price of Six Flags initially soared above $55 per share. However, it soon faced a steep decline, tumbling down to approximately $20 per share—a staggering drop of nearly 64%. This price fluctuation can be attributed to the exposed operational deficiencies and the financial instability that was previously undisclosed.
