What is this Case About: According to a complaint filed against Celsius, on March 1, 2022, Celsius disclosed it could not timely file its 2021 annual report due to "staffing limitations, unanticipated delays and unidentified material errors in previous filings." Specifically, Celsius “determined that the calculation and expense of non-cash share-based compensation, related to grants of stock options and restricted stock units awarded to certain former employees and retired directors were materially understated for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2021.” As a result, management concluded that there was a material weakness in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. On this news, the Company's stock fell to an intra-day low of $56.21 per share on March 2, 2022. Over two trading sessions, the Company's stock fell $5.20, or 8.3%, to close at $57.60 per share on March 3, 2022.

During the class period, defendants failed to disclose to investors that there was a material weakness in Celsius's internal controls over financial reporting, which caused the Company to improperly record expenses for non-cash share-based compensation for second and third quarters of 2021. As a result, the Company's financial statements for those periods would be restated, including to report a net loss for the third quarter of 2021.
