Extreme Networks, Inc. (EXTR, Financial) Securities Class Action:
A class-action lawsuit has been filed against Extreme Networks, Inc., alleging the cloud network equipment company misled investors about its financial prospects and declining customer demand during the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Jan. 31, 2024, the price of Extreme Networks shares tumbled over 18% after the company reported disappointing Q2 2024 financial results and guided for Q3 and Q4 revenue year-over-year declines of up to 37% and 24%, respectively.
The complaint, filed in the Northern District of California federal court, centers around Extreme Networks' "backlog" metric, which indicates client demand and anticipated revenue. The suit contends that the company exaggerated the strength of its backlog, concealing a decline in organic demand.
According to the complaint, Extreme Networks’ executives repeatedly made misleading statements about the company's financial health, touting strong demand and a growing backlog. However, the lawsuit alleges that these statements were false, as customers were ordering more products than they needed to avoid shortages and because they lacked alternative sourcing options.
The suit targets Extreme Networks' CEO Edward B. Meyercord III, former CFO RĂ©mi Thomas, interim CFO Cristina Tate, and current CFO Kevin Rhodes, alleging the defendants violated the U.S. securities laws.
The class period begins on July 27, 2022, and extends through January 30, 2024, when Extreme Networks reported a significant decline in product revenue. Following these disclosures, shares of Extreme Networks experienced substantial drops, injuring investors who purchased during this window.
Prominent shareholder rights firm Hagens Berman is actively investigating investors’ potential claims.
“We’re investigating whether Extreme Networks prioritized short-term gains over transparency,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
