The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP reminds investors of the May 9, 2025, deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action filed on behalf of investors who acquired Digimarc Corporation (“Digimarc” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: DMRC) securities during the period from May 2, 2024, through February 26, 2025 (“the Class Period”).

[LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION]

On February 26, 2025, after the market closed, Digimarc released its fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results, revealing the Company’s quarterly subscription revenue decreased 10% to $5.0 million, compared to $5.6 million in the previous year, and annual recurring revenue had decreased to $20.0 million, compared to $22.23 million in the previous year. These declines “primarily reflect[ed] a $5.8 million decrease in ARR due to the expiration of a commercial contract in June 2024.” On this news, the price of Digimarc shares declined by $11.65, or approximately 43%, from $27.04 on February 26, 2025, to close at $15.39 on February 27, 2025.

The complaint alleges that defendants, throughout the Class Period, failed to disclose that: (1) that a large commercial partner would not renew a large contract on the same terms; (2) that, as a result, Digimarc would renegotiate the large commercial contract; and (3) that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s subscription revenue and annual recurring revenue would be adversely affected.
