On March 20, 2024, Hindenburg Research published a report alleging, among other things, that Equinix “manipulates its accounting” for its adjusted funds from operations, overstating the metric by approximately 22% in 2023. Following this news, the price of Equinix stock fell $19.70 per share, or about 2.3%, to close at $824.88 per share on March 20, 2024.
Then, on March 25, 2024, Equinix disclosed that it had received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California. Following this news, the price of Equinix stock fell $8.45 per share, or about 1.1%, to close at $792.52 per share on March 25, 2024.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Equinix manipulated its financials to reduce operational expenses and boost Adjusted Funds From Operations; (2) Equinix oversold power capacity and did not warn of the risks associated with this practice; (3) Equinix lacked adequate internal controls; and (4) as a result, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.
