According to the complaint, LogMeIn is a Delaware corporation, located in Goleta, California. LogMeIn provides a portfolio of cloud-based communication and collaboration, identity and access, and customer engagement and support solutions. On February 1, 2017, LogMeIn issued a press release which “announced the completion of its previously disclosed merger with Citrix Systems, Inc.’s (NASDAQ: CTXS) GetGo, Inc. subsidiary, a wholly owned subsidiary consisting of Citrix’s GoTo family of service offerings.”
The Class Period commences on March 1, 2017, when LogMeIn filed its annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 on Form 10-K with the SEC, which provided the company’s annual financial results and position.
The complaint alleges that on July 26, 2018, after market close, LogMeIn held an earnings call to report its second quarter 2018 earnings results. During the call, William R. Wagner, LogMeIn’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Edward K. Herdiech, LogMeIn’s Chief Financial Officer, stated that LogMeIn implemented strategies which negatively impacted renewal rates of certain of its services, including amongst its GoTo clients.
Following this news, shares of LogMeIn fell $26.60 per share or over 25% to close at $77.85 per share on July 27, 2018.
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, the defendants failed to disclose that: (1) LogMeIn’s business practices had negatively impacted renewal rates for certain of its services; and (2) as a result, the defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
