Entwistle & Cappucci has filed a securities class action lawsuit against Capri Holdings and Tapestry Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The lawsuit represents investors who traded Capri stock between August 10, 2023, and October 24, 2024.
The complaint alleges that defendants made false or misleading statements regarding the proposed $8.5 billion acquisition of Capri by Tapestry and downplayed antitrust risks. On October 24, 2024, Judge Jennifer L. Rochon granted the FTC's motion to block the merger, finding evidence that the companies were direct competitors in the accessible luxury handbag market, contrary to their public statements.
Following this news, Capri's stock price dropped $20.34 per share, representing nearly a 50% decline. The deadline for affected investors to file a motion to serve as lead plaintiff is February 21, 2025.
