The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of Amplitude, Inc. (AMPL) Investors

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired 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.

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.
