Important Investor Deadline Reminder: e.l.f. Securities Class Action Lawsuit
New York, NY and New Orleans, LA, March 28, 2025 – Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (KSF) and KSF partner, former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., remind investors that they have until May 5, 2025 to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE: ELF).
The class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons who purchased or acquired e.l.f. securities between February 26, 2020 and March 1, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about the company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, the lawsuit alleges that defendants failed to disclose that:
- The company’s financial statements for the fiscal years 2020 and 2021 contained material misstatements and omissions;
- The company’s internal control over financial reporting was inadequate;
- The company’s revenue growth was significantly driven by the sale of certain defective or misrepresented products;
- The company’s management had engaged in a scheme to inflate sales and revenue through the use of promotional discounts and other improper tactics;
As a result of defendants’ false and/or misleading statements, e.l.f. securities traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period, and when the truth was revealed, the price of e.l.f. securities significantly declined.
If you purchased or acquired e.l.f. securities during the Class Period, you may be entitled to recover your losses, including income losses, damages for loss of shares, and any other economic loss.
