Eventbrite Accused of Misleading Investors
According to the complaint, Eventbrite acquired Ticketfly, LLC from
Pandora Media for $201.1 million in September 2017. In September 2018,
Eventbrite held its IPO by offering its stock at $23.00 per share and
generating $264.5 million in net proceeds. However, unbeknownst to
investors, the IPO was based on misleading offering documents. In
particular, Eventbrite failed to disclose the negative impact of the
Ticketfly acquisition. On March 7, 2019, Eventbrite revealed that
integrating Ticketfly was taking longer than expected and as a result
issued a lower guidance for the first quarter of 2019. On this news,
Eventbrite’s share price plummeted $7.96 per share, or over 24%, to
close at $24.46 per share on March 8, 2019. On May 1, 2019, Eventbrite
once again issued lower than expected guidance for the second quarter of
2019, due, in large part, to the slower than anticipated migration of
Ticketfly creators. On this news, Eventbrite’s stock declined over 27%
to close at $17.60 per share on May 2, 2019. On June 3, 2019,
Eventbrite’s stock closed at $15.85—over 30% below the IPO price.
