Ibotta ($IBTA) IPO Misstatements and Undisclosed Client Risk Case
D. Colorado
Court 1:25-cv-01213
Case number04/28/2024
Class period Start04/17/2025
Class period End06/16/2025
Lead Plaintiff motion deadline- $IBTA investors filed a claim against Ibotta for failing to disclose the termination risk of a key client contract during its IPO.
- After the company removed all references to Kroger in its first quarterly filing, $IBTA traded well below its $88 IPO price.
Case Details:
On April 18, 2024, Ibotta completed its IPO at $88.00 per share, raising over $200 million in gross proceeds. In its offering documents, the company emphasized strong publisher relationships, specifically referencing partners like Walmart, Shell, and Kroger, and claimed its Ibotta Performance Network (IPN) had broad distribution and high engagement.
While Ibotta detailed the terms of its Walmart agreement, it gave no specific disclosure about the at-will nature of its contract with Kroger, despite relying on it to power “Kroger Cash.” Investors were led to believe these retail partnerships were long-term and stable.
On August 14, 2024, Ibotta filed its first 10-Q following the IPO. All references to Kroger were removed, with no explanation, raising questions about the status of the relationship.
Based on these events, $IBTA investors filed a claim against Ibotta, accusing the company of the following:
- It failed to disclose the at-will nature and risk of termination of a key client agreement during the IPO.
- It gave investors a false impression of long-term stability by omitting material risk disclosures.
Considering all the representations, investors believe Ibotta misled the market about its client retention strength to support its IPO valuation.
