NEW YORK, Oct. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The percentage of securities class action settlements with at least one putative class member opting out has increased in recent years, according to a new report by Cornerstone Research in conjunction with Latham & Watkins LLP. Between 2019 and the first half of 2022, the percentage of securities class action settlements with at least one opt-out was 11.5%, up from 5.8% during 2006–2018 and around 2.9% from 1996 through 2005.

Key Points: 
  • The report, Opt-Out Cases in Securities Class Action Settlements: 2019–H1 2022 Update , also presents new empirical analysis of how certain class action case characteristics—including certain simplified metrics associated with potential damages, indicators of complexity of the case, and indicators of greater issuer ability to pay—relate to opt-outs.

  • In 2019–H1 2022, 29% of cases with class action settlements valued at over $20 million had identified opt-outs, more than 2.5 times the proportion across all class action settlements.
  • "We observe that putative class members are more likely to opt out of larger class action settlements, and, for the largest securities class action settlements, opt-outs often bring one or more separate direct action lawsuits," explained Matt Osborn , a Cornerstone Research principal and report coauthor.
