What You Need to Know
- Investors filed a securities class action against Meta in March 2022 accusing the company of failing to warn them about a substantial hit to its revenue caused by Apple's new privacy policies.
- The company's securities fraud led to the biggest one-day loss in the history of the U.S. stock market, when Meta lost 26% of its market cap, the complaint said.
Meta and three of its senior officers, represented by Latham & Watkins, last week secured the dismissal of a stock-drop securities class action in a California federal court.
