The lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all those who purchased Farfetch securities pursuant and/or traceable to the registration statement and prospectus issued in connection with the Company’s September 2018 initial public offering. The case, Omdahl v. Farfetch Limited, No. 19-cv-08657 was filed on September 17, 2019.
The lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by issuing a Registration Statement that was false and misleading and omitted to state material adverse facts. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that large scale online wholesale was reasonably likely to lead to pricing volatility and heavy promotions of luxury goods; (2) that the Company’s core business was vulnerable to such pricing pressures; (3) that the Company would aggressively pursue acquisitions to remain profitable; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
On August 8, 2019, Farfetch reported a larger-than-expected loss of $89.6 million for second quarter 2019. The Company also announced a $675 million acquisition of New Guards Group and that its Chief Operating Officer had resigned.
On this news, Farfetch stock fell from $18.12 on August 8, 2019 to $10.13 on August 9, 2019—a $7.99 or 44.10% drop.
