About the Lawsuit

Netflix and certain of its officers and directors are charged with making materially false and misleading statements and omissions related to the Company's business and operations in violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The allegations surround Netflix's 2014 price increase for monthly streaming subscriptions, and the Company's failure to inform investors that its price increases would materially impede subscriber growth. 

On October 15, 2014, and contrary to its earlier statements, Netflix revealed that its price increase had substantially slowed subscriber growth and sharply reduced the Company's near-term earnings outlook. As a result of these disclosures, Netflix stock plummeted by more than 19%, falling from a closing price of $448.59 per share on October 15, 2014 to a close of $361.70 per share on October 16, 2014.
