Klarna Group plc (KLAR) Securities Class Action:
The lawsuit alleges Klarna's IPO Registration Statement and Prospectus contained misleading statements regarding the company's credit modeling and risk management.
Specifically, the complaint alleges that Klarna's offering documents materially understated credit risks involved in lending to clients who were financially unsophisticated, experiencing financial hardship, and/or borrowing at substantial interest rates for items including fast food deliveries. The complaint further alleges that, because of these factors, Klarna downplayed the risk of material increases in the company's loss provisions.
On Nov. 18, 2025, Klarna reported its Q3 2025 financial results that included a massive 102% year-over-year increase in its provision for credit losses and a material year-over-year increase in operating losses.
Following this news, Klarna's stock price plummeted, eventually trading nearly 22% below its IPO price.
"We are investigating whether the IPO documents adequately disclosed the company's credit risks," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation. "When a company's credit loss provisions double just weeks after an IPO, investors deserve to know if those risks were known but omitted from the offering documents," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm's investigation of the alleged pending claims.
