or contact Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000 or emailing

The investigation centers on whether QuinStreet’s and its officers misrepresented the sources and sustainability of the Company’s revenues.
More specifically, on April 11, 2019, research firm Kerrisdale Capital published a report accusing QuinStreet of, among other things, (1) artificially boosting the Company’s “leads” revenue by secretly paying web surfers to click on its advertiser-sponsored links, and (2) failing to adequately disclose the Company’s revenue concentration in- and growth from- a single large client, Progressive Insurance.
Then, on August 8, 2019, the Company announced disappointing quarterly earnings, causing the price of QuinStreet shares to drop 27%.
“We’re focused on investors’ losses, the extent to which management may have misled investors about the source of QuinStreet’s revenues and strength of its business model,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
