Keyla D. Bell, et al. v. Kanzhun Limited Case
Kanzhun Limited (BZ) agreed to pay up to $2.25 million to settle a securities class action lawsuit to avoid further litigation.
The original complaint alleged that the Company and its Leaders made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:
Kanzhun would face an imminent cybersecurity review by the Cyberspace Administration of China;
The CAC would require Kanzhun to suspend new user registration on its BOSS Zhipin app;
Kanzhun needed to "conduct a comprehensive examination of cybersecurity risks";
Kanzhun needed to "enhance its cybersecurity awareness and technology capabilities";
as a result, Defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
