AppLovin Securities Class Action | APP Investors

Did You Purchase or Otherwise Acquire AppLovin Securities Between February 12, 2026 and August 5, 2026?

A securities class action has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired securities of AppLovin Corporation (“AppLovin” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: APP) between February 12, 2026 and August 5, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

The action is captioned Talbot v. AppLovin Corporation, et al., Case No. 3:26-cv-10584, and was filed on September 16, 2026 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The action seeks to recover damages caused by Defendants’ alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.

What Does the AppLovin Securities Class Action Allege?

The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the generative AI video creative feature for AppLovin Ads was subject to significant development delays, making its release on the Company’s timeline unlikely; (2) Defendants overstated the constancy with which AppLovin was improving its AI models; and (3) for these reasons, among others, AppLovin significantly overstated the benefits and reliability of the purported “virtuous cycle” and “compounding” value proposition that its AI models provided to customers and the Company. As a result, Defendants’ public statements were allegedly materially false and misleading.

APP Stock Declines Following Disclosures

July 13, 2026: According to the complaint, a Bank of America Securities analyst published a note reporting softer-than-expected e-commerce ad growth for June and raising concerns about the rollout of AppLovin Ads to all advertisers. Following publication of the note, AppLovin’s stock price fell $64.13 per share, or 12.65%, to close at $442.85 per share.

August 5, 2026: According to the complaint, AppLovin reported second-quarter revenue of $1.92 billion, below consensus estimates of $1.94 billion. During the earnings call, Defendants stated that the pace of meaningful model improvement was “lighter than normal during the quarter” and that the generative AI video tool was still a “work in progress.” AppLovin’s stock price subsequently fell $82.13 per share, or 19.66%, to close at $335.67 per share on August 6, 2026.

November 16, 2026 Lead Plaintiff Deadline

    Bonus Included in Overtime Pay

    Was Your Bonus Included in Overtime Pay?

    Was your bonus included in overtime pay when you worked more than 40 hours in a workweek? For many hourly and other non-exempt workers, certain bonuses must be included in the regular rate used to calculate overtime. If a bonus that should have been included is omitted from the regular-rate calculation, a worker’s overtime pay may be too low.

    When a Bonus May Affect Overtime

    Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, covered, non-exempt employees generally must receive overtime pay for hours over 40 in a workweek based on their regular rate of pay. The regular rate includes most compensation for employment, subject to specific exclusions. Nondiscretionary bonuses generally must be included in the regular rate.

    A bonus may be nondiscretionary when it is promised or announced in advance and tied to stated criteria, such as production, attendance, quality, sales, or continued employment. A bonus is not excluded merely because an employer calls it discretionary. Whether it must be included depends on the actual terms and circumstances.

    When an included bonus covers more than one workweek, the payment generally must be allocated back over the period in which it was earned. The employer may then owe additional overtime for workweeks in which the employee worked more than 40 hours.

    Recent Retention Bonus Case

    A recent federal court filing illustrates the issue. In Soliz-Arriaga v. Kiewit Offshore Services, Ltd., the plaintiff alleges that quarterly retention bonuses were not included in the regular rate, resulting in underpaid overtime. On September 15, 2026, the plaintiff filed an unopposed motion asking a Texas federal court to certify a settlement collective and approve the parties’ agreement.

    The motion states that the proposed settlement collective includes approximately 2,528 hourly, non-exempt employees who received retention bonuses and worked at least one overtime week from January 8, 2023, through July 6, 2026. Kiewit disputes the claims, including whether the bonuses were discretionary, and does not concede that overtime was underpaid. The settlement remains subject to court approval, and the settlement amount was filed under seal.

    Review Your Pay Records

    Workers who received a retention, attendance, production, performance, or similar bonus should compare the bonus terms with their pay records. Useful documents include bonus plans, offer letters, pay stubs, time records, employee handbooks, and messages explaining how the bonus was earned.

    Doximity Securities Class Action | DOCS Investors

    Did You Purchase Doximity Common Stock Between August 8, 2024 and May 13, 2026?

    A securities class action has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired common stock of Doximity, Inc. (“Doximity” or the “Company”) (NYSE: DOCS) between August 8, 2024 and May 13, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

    The action is captioned Michigan Laborers’ Pension Fund v. Doximity, Inc., et al., Case No. 3:26-cv-10529, and was filed on September 16, 2026 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The action seeks to recover damages caused by Defendants’ alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.

    What Does the Doximity Securities Class Action Allege?

    The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (1) Doximity overstated the impact its Newsfeed had on revenue growth; (2) Doximity was losing market share to competitors with more favorable pricing and engagement models; and (3) despite statements emphasizing “deep engagement,” Doximity relied on banner ads and email newsletters as advertising methods. The complaint alleges that these undisclosed facts rendered Defendants’ positive statements about Doximity’s business and competitive position materially false or misleading.

    DOCS Stock Declines Following Disclosures

    November 6, 2025: Doximity expressed caution regarding the outlook for advertising spending and implied a slowdown in sales growth in the second half of fiscal 2026. The complaint alleges that Doximity common stock declined $8.29 per share, or 13%, following the disclosures.

    February 5, 2026: Doximity lowered its fiscal 2026 revenue guidance and announced that sales growth had decelerated while net income had contracted. The complaint alleges that Doximity common stock declined $5.59 per share, or 17%.

    May 13, 2026: Doximity announced that it had missed its already-reduced revenue guidance and projected significantly slower growth for fiscal 2027. The complaint alleges that Doximity common stock declined an additional $5.38 per share, or 23%, from a May 13 closing price of $23.39 to $18.01 on May 14, 2026.

      California Minimum Wage 2027 | $17.40 for Workers

      California Workers: Will Your Minimum Wage Increase in 2027?

      Beginning January 1, 2027, California’s statewide minimum wage will increase by $0.50 from $16.90 to $17.40 per hour.

      Under California law, most California workers must be paid at least the applicable minimum wage. For some workers, however, $17.40 will not be the applicable rate because a city, county, or industry-specific minimum wage may be higher.

      The minimum wage increase also affects overtime exemptions. Beginning January 1, 2027, certain employees classified as exempt from California’s overtime requirements must earn an annual salary of at least $72,384, in addition to satisfying the duties and other requirements for the applicable exemption.

      Some California Cities and Counties Require Higher Minimum Wages

      The $17.40 statewide rate is a floor, not necessarily the rate that applies to every California worker. California’s minimum wage guidance explains that some cities and counties impose minimum wages above the statewide rate and that covered employers must pay the higher applicable local rate.

      For example, UC Berkeley Labor Center’s inventory of local minimum wage ordinances lists current rates of $19.61 in Berkeley and San Francisco, $18.42 in Los Angeles, $18.47 in unincorporated Los Angeles County, and $17.75 in San Diego.

      California Workers: Is Your Employer Paying the Minimum Wage You Are Owed?

      When California’s new statewide minimum wage takes effect, workers should check their pay rate against the minimum wage that applies where they work. Because some cities, counties, and industries require higher rates, the statewide $17.40 minimum may not be the correct rate for every employee. If your employer is paying less than the applicable minimum wage, you may have a claim for unpaid wages and other remedies under California law.
