About the Lawsuit

Baidu and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On April 7, 2020, post-market, the Company was ordered by the Cyberspace Administration of China (“CAC”), China’s internet regulator, remove improper information and “low-brow content” from its internet search engine, that the content review on some of its news feed channels was not “strict,” “exerted bad influence to the society,” and violated relevant Chinese laws and regulations.

On this news, the price of Baidu’s shares fell, damaging shareholders.

The case is Ikeda v. Baidu, Inc., et al., 20-cv-02768.
