On June 3, 2024, The New York Times published an article entitled “Toyota and Other Japanese Carmakers Say They Mishandled Safety Tests.” According to the article, “[t]he Japanese authorities had told Toyota and other car companies to conduct investigations into their compliance with national standards for safety and other issues.” Toyota stated that “it had failed to gather proper data when doing pedestrian and occupant safety tests for three models, including its popular Yaris Cross sport utility vehicle,” and that “it would temporarily halt shipments of three of the affected models it produces in Japan.” On the same day, the Associated Press released an article entitled “Toyota apologizes for cheating on vehicle testing and halts production of three models.” On this news, the price of Toyota American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) declined by $5.34 per ADS, to close at $212.17 per ADS on June 3, 2024.

The lawsuit alleges that Toyota throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose, among other things, that Toyota understated its malfeasance relating to certification of its cars and issues relating to overall legal compliance.
