Lead Plaintiff motion deadline
  • $PLCE stockholder filed a claim vs. The Children’s Place for downplaying aggressive promotions and overstating inventories.
  • Poor Q4 FY23 results in February caused $PLCE to fall 36%, losing $90M+ in shareholder value.
On February 9, 2024, The Children’s Place (PLCE) announced lower Q4 sales than expected, estimated between $454M and $456M.

The Сompany also predicted a Q4 loss of 8-9% due to more promotions, increased e-commerce shipments, and inventory adjustments.

On this news, $PLCE plunged by 36% and lost over $90 million of its market capitalization.

The first $PLCE stockholder filed a claim against The Children’s Place and its leaders, accusing them of the following:
  • They didn't disclose the aggressive promotions and overstated inventory values.
  • This likely harmed the fiscal 2023 financial results.
Considering all the representations, investors have reasons to suspect that The Children’s Place didn't disclose financial issues and was misled about the promotions and inventory values.
