What is this Case About: KeyCorp (KEY) Misled Investors Regarding its Liquidity Strategy

According to the complaint, one of the Company’s principal sources of revenue is net interest income (“NII”), which is calculated as the difference between interest income received on earning assets (such as loans and securities) and loan-related fee income, and interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings. During the class period, defendants failed to disclose that: (i) Key downplayed concerns with its liquidity while overstating the effectiveness of its long-term liquidity strategy; (ii) Key overstated its projected NII for the second quarter and full year of 2023, as well as related positive NII drivers, while downplaying negative NII drivers; (iii) as a result, Key was likely to negatively revise its previously issued NII guidance; and (iv) the foregoing, once revealed, was likely to negatively impact Key’s business, financial results, and reputation.

As news of these wrongful acts and omissions came to light, Key's stock declined, harming investors.
