Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased XPEL, Inc. (“XPEL” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: XPEL) securities between November 8, 2023 and May 2, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”). XPEL investors have until October 7, 2024 to file a lead plaintiff motion.
Investors suffering losses on their XPEL investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com.
On May 2, 2024, XPEL released its first quarter 2024 financial results, reporting only 5% revenue growth year-over-year, disclosing that the Company had been losing customers in the aftermarket channel.
On this news, XPEL’s stock price fell $20.93, or 38.9%, to close at $32.86 per share on May 2, 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) XPEL’s competitors were siphoning an increasingly large segment of the market; (2) as a result, the Company’s revenue growth became increasingly dependent upon existing customers and partners; (3) as a result, the Company’s revenue growth for 2023 and 2024 dwindled; 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 XPEL securities, have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G. Smith, Esquire, of Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, 3070 Bristol Pike, Suite 112, Bensalem, Pennsylvania 19020, by telephone at (215) 638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com, or visit our website at www.howardsmithlaw.com.
