What Happened?
On January 27, 2025, Lufax disclosed that it was proposing to remove its auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers (“PwC”) because PwC had significant concerns about Lufax’s financial disclosures and, in particular, the 2022 and 2023 Annual Reports.
On this news, Lufax’s stock price fell $0.40, or 13.8%, to close at $2.49 per share on January 27, 2025, thereby injuring investors.
On February 17, 2025, Lufax confirmed that the 2022 and 2023 financial reports could not be relied on, finding “that certain line items were inaccurately recorded in the consolidated financial statements that [the Company] had previously issued.” Lufax’s 2024 Annual Report provided restated net profit figures for the affected years, showing material net profit declines from the original reports.
What Is The Lawsuit About?
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) Lufax lacked adequate internal controls; (2) Certain of Lufax’s financial results were materially misstated; and (3) 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.
