Deadline Reminder: Law Offices of Howard G. Smith Reminds Investors of Looming Deadline in the Class Action Lawsuit Against Five9, Inc. (FIVN)

Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming February 3, 2025 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the case filed on behalf of investors who purchased Five9, Inc. (“Five9” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FIVN) securities between June 4, 2024 and August 8, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

Investors suffering losses on their Five9 investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at (215) 638-4847 or by email to [email protected].

On August 8, 2024, Five9 released its second quarter 2024 financial results, disclosing that it would cut its annual revenue guidance due to a “challenging bookings quarter” and “uncertain economic conditions.” Additionally, the Company revealed that customer budgets had been “constrained and scrutinized,” that “Q2 new logo bookings came in softer than expected,” and that sales execution “wasn’t up to snuff,” announcing that the Company was “no longer assuming” a dollar-based retention rate inflection in the second half of the year.

On this news, Five9’s stock price fell $11.25, or 26.5%, to close at $31.22 per share on August 9, 2024, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Five9’s net new business was not “strong irrespective of the macro” and was, in fact, hampered by macroeconomic issues such as constrained and scrutinized customer budgets; (2) Five9 was in the midst of a challenging bookings quarter due, in part, to sales execution and efficiency issues, and the Company was not “seeing very strong bookings momentum”; (3) Defendants did not have “enough information in terms of [their] existing customers that are going live” such that the statements that Five9 would see a positive inflection in its dollar-based retention rate lacked a reasonable basis; and (4) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Five9 securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than February 3, 2025 to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff if you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the class action you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the class action.
