WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll PLLC is conducting an investigation to determine whether Envivio, Inc. (“Envivio” or the “Company”) and certain of its officers and directors made false and misleading statements and/or omissions in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
A class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by another law firm on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of Envivio, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENVI) between April 25, 2012 and September 6, 2012, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Envivio sold 7.75 million shares priced at $9.00 in its IPO completed on April 25, 2012.
The complaint alleges that Envivio and certain of its officers and directors (“Defendants”) misrepresented and/or failed to disclose:
(1) Envivio's true historical revenue growth; (2) the true revenue from the Company's Americas segment; (3) that Envivio’s past revenue results were not indicative of its future operations as the Company’s business was not growing as fast as represented; (4) that at the time of the IPO the Company’s existing customers had dramatically reduced spending on Envivio’s products and there was no growing new demand for the Company’s products.
On September 6, 2012, the Company issued its second quarter results for the fiscal year 2013. The Company reported a drop in revenue, which was down from both previous results and from the Company’s guidance, in addition to a larger net loss than the Company had experienced in the second quarter of 2012. The Company remarked that: “Our results for the second quarter reflect project delays by our service provider customers and the impact of the macroeconomic environment. We are disappointed in our quarterly performance and have taken actions to reduce our cost structure.”
During an investor conference call the same day, the Company also blamed the shortfall on project delays, saying they resulted from longer budget cycles and smaller orders arising from budgetary restrictions, which Envivio ultimately blamed on a weak global economy.
On this news, the Company’s stock price declined $0.46 per share, or 17.16% to close at $2.22 per share on September 7, 2012. This closing price of the Company’s common stock represented a cumulative loss of $6.78, or more than 75%, of the value of the Company’s shares at the time of the Company’s IPO.
Cohen Milstein encourages all investors who purchased Envivio common stock between April 25, 2012 and September 6, 2012, or former employees with information concerning this matter to contact the firm.
