The complaint charges Coach and certain of its officers and directors with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Coach engages in the design and marketing of accessories and gifts for men and women in the United States and internationally.
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants reported strong growth for the Company and forecast similar growth going forward. However, defendants failed to disclose that the Company's growth rate was, in fact, unsustainable. Then, on October 23, 2007, before the market opened, Coach announced that although its fiscal first-quarter profit rose 23%, traffic in its U.S. retail stores was weak and the Company expected a slow-down in the coming holiday season. As a result of this announcement, Coach's stock price dropped $4.87 per share (or 12%) to close at $36.60 per share on October 23, 2007.
Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of all purchasers of Coach publicly traded securities during the Class Period (the "Class"). The plaintiff is represented by Coughlin Stoia, which has expertise in prosecuting investor class actions and extensive experience in actions involving financial fraud.
