Foti, Jr., remind investors that they have only until July 12, 2022 to file lead plaintiff applications in securities class action lawsuits against Upstart Holdings, Inc. (NasdaqGS: UPST), if they purchased the Company’s securities between March 18, 2021 and May 9, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”) including Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 issued by the Company in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers on or around August 18, 2021. These actions are pending in the United States District Courts for the Southern District of New York and Southern District of Ohio.

About the Lawsuits
Upstart and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws. On May 9, 2022, post-market, the Company revealed its 1Q2022 financial results, disclosing a reduction to its fiscal 2022 guidance, expecting revenue of approximately $1.25 billion and contribution margin of 48% due to “rising interest rates and rising consumer delinquencies [as] putting downward pressure on conversion.” On this news, shares of Upstart fell $43.52, or 56%, to close at $33.61 per share on May 10, 2022.
The first-filed case is Ward v. Upstart Holdings, Inc., No. 22-cv-02856.
