SAN DIEGO, July 26, 2018 — Shareholder Rights Law Firm Johnson Fistel, LLP is investigating potential claims against Facebook, Inc. (NASDAQ: FB) (“Facebook”).
On July 25, 2018, after the markets closed, Facebook reported second-quarter sales and user growth that fell short of analysts’ projections. Facebook further warned that revenue growth would slow in the second half of the year and that expenses would grow faster than revenue next year. Investors were cautioned to expect a big jump in costs because of efforts to address concerns about poor handling of users’ privacy and to better monitor what users post.
Facebook chief executive officer Mark Zuckerberg has recently appeared before the US Congress regarding a litany of complaints about the Company’s privacy practices. Additionally, a new European privacy law went into effect in May 2018 following a succession of privacy scandals.
Following the press release, in after-hours trading on July 25, 2018, Facebook stock traded down as much as 24%, wipping out more than $125 billion in market value.
