(“Meta” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FB) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Meta securities between April 29, 2021 and October 21, 2021, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).

On October 21, 2021, after the market closed, The Wall Street Journal published an article, citing internal Company documents, that raised significant concerns about the accuracy and reliability of some of Facebook’s publicly reported user metrics. Those documents show that the use of duplicate accounts by some users is “very prevalent” which could render Facebook’s ratio of daily active users inherently “less trustable.”
Then, on October 22, 2021, after the end of the Class Period, it was first reported by The Washington Post that a second Facebook whistleblower had come forward and filed a complaint with the SEC, based on allegations similar to those made by Ms. Haugen.
From the date of the first article published by The Wall Street Journal on September 13, 2021 to The Wall Street Journal article published on October 21, 2021 that raised concerns about the accuracy and reliability of the Company’s user metrics, Facebook’s stock price declined by $54.08 per share, or over 14%, representing a decline of more than $150 billion in Facebook’s total market capitalization.
