Domino’s Pizza Investors File Class Action Over Misleading Store Growth Projections
E.D. Michigan
Court2:24-cv-12477
Case number07 Dec 2023
Class period Start17 Jul 2024
Class period End19 Nov 2024
Lead Plaintiff motion deadlineScott Bender and other investors have filed a claim against Domino's Pizza for overstating its store growth forecasts, which led to a significant drop in its stock price.
- On July 18, 2024, Domino’s stock dropped by 13% after announcing that it would fall 175 to 275 stores short of its 2024 growth target.
- Investors who were affected by this drop in Domino's stock can join the class action to seek compensation for their financial losses.
On July 18, 2024, Domino’s announced that it was lowering its store growth expectations for 2024, citing challenges faced by its largest franchisee, Domino’s Pizza Enterprises (DPE). These challenges included difficulties in opening new stores and the closure of existing locations. This news led to a sharp decline in the company's stock price, which fell over 13% as investors reacted to the disappointing announcement.
Between December 7, 2023, and July 17, 2024, Domino’s gave positive growth projections, promising a net increase of 1,100+ stores per year.
However, the company did not reveal that its largest franchisee, DPE, was struggling to meet these growth goals. When Domino’s reported its second-quarter financial results for 2024, it revealed that it would miss its growth target by up to 275 stores.
Based on these events, Dominos stockholders filed a claim against Dominos and its leadership, accusing them of the following:
- Domino’s exaggerated its store growth projections and did not inform investors about the problems its franchisee was facing.
- As a result, the company’s financial outlook was overstated, and the information provided to the public was misleading.
- These misleading statements caused investors to suffer financial losses.
One of Domino’s investors has already filed a claim, and others are encouraged to join the lawsuit to recover their losses.
