Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading minority and certified woman-owned national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against CD Projekt S.A. ("CD Projekt" or the "Company") (OTC Pink: OTGLF) (OTC Pink:OTGLY) and reminds investors of the February 22, 2021 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.
As detailed below, the lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) Cyberpunk 2077 was virtually unplayable on the current-generation Xbox or Playstation systems due to an enormous number of bugs; (2) as a result, Sony would remove Cyberpunk 2077 from the Playstation store, and Sony, Microsoft and the Company would be forced to offer full refunds for the game; (3) consequently, the Company would suffer reputational and pecuniary harm; and (4) as a result, Defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
Specifically, on December 14, 2020, facing criticisms for delivering an unplayable, bug-ridden product on the Consoles, the Company held a conference call. During the call, Defendant Kicinski called the Current-Generation Console versions "way below our expectations."
During that same call, Defendant Nielubowicz stated "we definitely did not spend enough time looking at that," when referring to issues with the Current Generation Console versions.
Following the release, the Company's ADRs fell from its close of $27.68 on December 9, 2020 to close at $20.75 on December 14, 2020, a drop of $6.93 or 25% over 3 trading days, damaging investors. Over that same period, CD Projekt's common share (OTGLF) price fell $21.65 per share, or 20.1%, to close at $86.00 on December 14, 2020, damaging investors.
Then, on December 18, 2020, Sony issued a statement via the Playstation website that it would "offer a full refund for all gamers who have purchased Cyberpunk 2077 via PlayStation Store" and "be removing Cyberpunk 2077 from PlayStation Store until further notice." Microsoft also announced that it would offer refunds for the game.
That same day, the Company stated that Sony's decision to "temporarily suspend" sales of the game came after a discussion with the Company.
On this news, CD Projekt's ADR (OTGLY) price fell $3.44 per share, or 15.8%, to close at $18.50 per ADR on December 18, 2020, damaging investors. CD Projekt's common share (OTGLF) price fell $9.20 per share, or 10.45%, to close at $78.80 on December 18, 2020, damaging investors.
The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding CD Projekt's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
