Amazon Accused of Misleading Shareholders
The Amazon class action lawsuit arises from defendants’ material misrepresentations and omissions regarding Amazon’s overexpansion of the infrastructure and fulfillment network for its e-commerce business. A key priority for Amazon has been to increase its ability to provide its e-commerce customers with shortened delivery times, including same-day delivery. To meet that goal, Amazon invested significant capital to aggressively expand its infrastructure and fulfillment networks. And in doing so, defendants repeatedly told investors that Amazon’s investments in expanding infrastructure and fulfillment network capacity were sound and appropriate decisions for the long term.
But as the Amazon class action lawsuit alleges, defendants knew or recklessly disregarded that Amazon’s infrastructure and fulfillment network investments substantially outpaced demand, and that those investments were a massive, self-imposed, undue drain on Amazon’s financial condition. In fact, contrary to defendants’ public statements during the Class Period and as later confirmed by The Wall Street Journal, by July 2021, defendants had already implemented cutbacks to Amazon’s fulfillment capacity without disclosing that critical information to investors.
On April 28, 2022, Amazon reported a $3.8 billion net quarterly loss – its first reported net quarterly loss since 2015. After months of falsely representing that Amazon’s expansion of its e-commerce fulfillment network and infrastructure was necessary and appropriate to meet both short-term and long-term customer demand, Amazon disclosed that day that it was “no longer chasing physical or staffing capacity.” Amazon disclosed $6 billion of “incremental costs,” including $2 billion due to “overcapacity” in Amazon’s “fulfillment and transportation network.” Amazon further disclosed that they “expect the effect . . . to persist for the next several quarters as we grow into this capacity.” On this news, the price of Amazon stock fell by more than 14%, damaging investors.
