Arconic Corporation (ARNC)

Class Period: April 19, 2022 - May 3, 2023

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: March 31, 2025

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants failed to disclose to investors that in April 2022 Apollo had made a premium offer of $34-$36 to purchase all the outstanding equity interest of Arconic in an all-cash transaction. After rejecting the offer, Arconic repurchased its shares in large quantities at prices significantly below Apollo's offer.

On December 12, 2022, Apollo submitted a revised proposal to acquire Arconic in an all-cash transaction at a price of $30.00 per share. Plaintiff alleges that Arconic continued to engage in share repurchases at prices materially below Apollo's offer.

The complaint alleges that on May 4, 2023, Arconic announced that it had entered into an agreement to be acquired by Apollo in an all-cash transaction at $30.00 per share. In response, the price of Arconic common stock increased $6.38 per share, or 28.3%, from a closing price on May 3, 2023 of $22.55 per share to a closing price on May 4, 2023 of $28.93 per share.

Integral Ad Science Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: IAS)

Class Period: March 2, 2023 - February 27, 2024

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: March 31, 2025

The complaint alleges, among other things, that during the Class Period, “Defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose (i) that IAS was experiencing a new material trend of increased competitive pricing pressures and that, as a result, IAS had been forced to cut prices to compensate for weakening demand and slowing revenue growth; (ii) that IAS’s pricing function was no longer ‘favorable’ and IAS could not sustain its pricing and drive price increases; (iii) that pricing had become a key differentiator between IAS and its competitor necessary to close major renewals and new deals; (iv) that the risk that competition ‘could result in increased pricing pressure’ or ‘could put pressure on us to change our prices’ had in fact transpired; and (v) as a result, the IAS’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.”

The complaint further alleges that “[a]s a result of Defendants’ wrongful acts and omissions, and the precipitous decline in the market value of the Company’s shares, Plaintiff and putative class members have suffered significant losses and damages.”
