DEFENDANTS’ ALLEGED MISCONDUCT

The Class Period begins on June 1, 2023, when Autodesk filed with the SEC its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 30, 2023. Therein, and throughout the Class Period, Defendants assured investors as to the accuracy of financial reporting, the disclosure of any material changes to the company’s internal control over financial reporting and the disclosure of all fraud.

Then, on April 1, 2024, Autodesk disclosed that the company would be unable to timely file its annual report due to “an internal investigation with the assistance of outside counsel and advisors, regarding the Company’s free cash flow and non-GAAP operating margin practices.” On this news, Autodesk’s stock price fell $10.73, or 4.1%, to close at $248.71 per share on April 2, 2024.

On April 16, 2024, Autodesk issued a press release providing an update on the internal investigation, stating that the company “will not file its Annual Report…within the 15-day extension period…due to the ongoing investigation” and “expects to receive a notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market…that it is not in compliance with the timely filing requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq” listing rules. On this news, Autodesk’s stock price fell $13.32 per share, or 5.84%, to close at $214.92 per share on April 17, 2024.
