Olaplex Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:OLPX) Securities Class Action:

The class action has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased Olaplex shares in or traceable to the company's Sept. 30, 2021 initial public offering ('IPO').

Specifically, Olaplex's IPO documents touted its competitive advantages and several significant tailwinds.

According to the complaint, Olaplex's IPO documents misrepresented and failed to disclose that: (1) macro-economic pressures and competition in the haircare market were more robust than the company represented; (2) accordingly, the company was unlikely to maintain its sales and revenue momentum; and, (3) as a result, it was unlikely that the company would be able to achieve the financial and operational growth projected in its offering documents.

Investors began to learn the truth on Sept. 29, 2022, when Piper Sandler published a negative report on Olaplex in which the analyst said, 'competition and misinformation are growing risks to the company' and that she anticipated investments in marketing and education were needed to offset the headwinds.

Then, on Oct. 18, 2022, Olaplex announced that it slashed its revenue guidance for FY 2022. The company blamed 'a slowdown in sales momentum that it attribute[d] to macro-economic pressures, increased competitive activity including discounting, and a moderation in new customer acquisition, as well as inventory rebalancing across certain customers[.]'

This news sent the price of Olaplex shares crashing over 56% lower on Oct. 19, 2022, closing at $4.24 or nearly 80% below the IPO price.

'We're focused on investors' losses and proving Olaplex's IPO documents misled investors about its growth prospects,' said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
