What is this Case About: Everbridge, Inc. (EVBG) Misled Investors Regarding its Ability to Integrate Recently Purchased Companies and Their Offerings

According to the complaint, Everbridge acquired nine companies shortly before and during the class period. Throughout the class period, defendants misled investors regarding its ability to integrate the new acquisitions and expectations of revenue growth.

The truth about Everbridge's failings was partially revealed on December 9, 2021, when the Company disclosed the resignation of its CEO, without providing a reason for the decision. The Company also provided 2022 revenue growth guidance of between 20%-23%, well below the expected baseline of 30%. On this news, Everbridge's common stock fell over 45%, or $52.37 per share.

Then, on February 24, 2022, Everbridge announced disappointing financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2021, and even lower guidance for the first quarter and full year 2022. In so doing, one new interim co-CEO revealed the integration challenges resulting from the buying binge and noted that Everbridge will pause engaging in any new M&A activity to focus on product integration, as well as significantly “simplify” and reduce its product offerings. The other interim co-CEO noted that focus on product integration and simplification would alone result in an approximate $17 million of revenue loss and the decline in deal sizes would result in another $15 million reduction in revenues. On this news, Everbridge’s common stock price fell another $15.68 per share, or 33.9%, to close at $30.61 per share on February 25, 2022.

(EVBG) between November 4, 2019 and February 24, 2022, you have until June 3, 2022, to ask the court to appoint you lead plaintiff for the class.
