INVESTOR ALERT: Law Offices of Howard G. Smith Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of Amplitude, Inc. (AMPL) Investors

BENSALEM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased Amplitude, Inc. (“Amplitude” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AMPL) securities between September 21, 2021 and February 16, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Amplitude investors have until April 15, 2024 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

Investors suffering losses on their Amplitude investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to [e-mail].

On February 16, 2022, Amplitude released its fourth quarter 2021 financial results, revealing that its land-and-expand strategy would “take a few years” to accelerate results despite prior assurances of sustainable growth. The Company also lowered its 2022 fiscal guidance.

On this news, Amplitude’s stock price fell $24.51, or 58.9%, to close at $17.10 per share on February 17, 2022, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that Amplitude’s land-and-expand strategy was years away from significantly accelerating revenues among its newer client cohorts; (2) that the rapid acceleration in the Company’s 2Q21 results resulted from the ephemeral effects of the COVID-19 pandemic which had not continued by the start of the Class Period, as Amplitude clients were expanding at a slower pace; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

If you purchased Amplitude securities, have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G. Smith, Esquire, of Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, 3070 Bristol Pike, Suite 112, Bensalem, Pennsylvania 19020, by telephone at [phone], toll-free at [phone], or by email to [e-mail], or visit our website at www.howardsmithlaw.com.
