The claim arises on November 4, 2024, after market hours, when Marqeta issued a press release entitled “Marqeta Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results.”
The complaint alleges that Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements because they misrepresented and failed to disclose the following adverse facts pertaining to the Company’s business which were known to Defendants or recklessly disregarded by them. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:
(1) Marqeta understated the regulatory challenges affecting its business outlook;
(2) as a result, Marqeta would have to cut its guidance for the fourth quarter of 2024 and;
(3) as a result, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.
On this news, Marqeta’s stock price fell $2.53 per share, or 42.5%, to close at $3.42 per share on November 5, 2024.
