The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired GitLab Inc. (“GitLab” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GTLB) securities between June 6, 2023 and March 4, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

On March 4, 2024, GitLab lowered its full-year 2025 guidance, disclosing that it expected a non-GAAP operating loss of $12 million to $13 million and an operating non-GAAP revenue of $5 million to $10 million. The Company stated that the revision was due to needing time to build its pipeline and close deals on new products.
On this news, GitLab’s stock price fell $15.63, or 21%, to close at $58.84 per share on March 5, 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) there was weak market demand for GitLab’s touted AI features and the Company was incurring an increasing amount of expenses involving JiHu, its joint venture in China, as well as the annual company-wide summit; and (2) 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.
