Autodesk, Inc. – Breach of Fiduciary Duties Investigation – ADSK

Kehoe Law Firm, P.C. is investigating whether certain executive officers and directors of Autodesk, Inc. (“Autodesk” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:ADSK) breached their fiduciary duties by failing to manage Autodesk in an acceptable manner and whether Autodesk and its shareholders were harmed as a result.

Key Issues of the Breach of Fiduciary Duties Investigation

On April 1, 2024, Autodesk announced that it was “. . . unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2024 . . . within the prescribed time period, without unreasonable effort or expense.”

Further, the Company stated that “[a]fter the Company’s earnings release on February 29, 2024, information was brought to the attention of management, which promptly informed the Audit Committee . . . of the Board of Directors of the Company, that caused the Committee to commence an internal investigation with the assistance of outside counsel and advisors, regarding the Company’s free cash flow and non-GAAP operating margin practices.”

On April 16, 2024, Autodesk announced it would “. . . not file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2024 . . . within the 15-day extension period contemplated by Rule 12b-25(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, due to the ongoing investigation. Accordingly, the Company expects to receive a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market . . . that it is not in compliance with the timely filing requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).”

On April 25, 2024, Autodesk reported that “[o]n April 19, 2024, the Company received a notice . . . from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC . . . notifying the Company that, because [Autodesk] is delinquent in filing its Form 10-K, the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) . . ., which requires companies with securities listed on Nasdaq to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC.”

On June 3, 2024, Autodesk announced that it had reassigned its Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), after an internal accounting investigation around treatment of its free cash flow and operating margins.

Autodesk also “. . . disclosed its practice of incentivizing customers to adopt multiyear upfront billing arrangements. It has also acknowledged that discounted multiyear upfront contracts reduce revenue and lower billings in out years. Though prior to fiscal year 2024, the company did not quantify free cash flow attributable to multiyear upfront billings, it has noted the contribution of upfront collections to fluctuations in the company’s quarterly reported long-term deferred revenue.”

Pagaya Technologies Securities Investigation – PGY

Kehoe Law Firm, P.C. is investigating securities claims on behalf of investors of Pagaya Technologies Ltd. (“Pagaya”) (NASDAQ:PGY) for potential violations of federal securities laws.

Investing.com reported that Pagaya stock “. . . shares fell 6% following a short report from Iceberg Research that criticized the fintech company’s financial practices and management history. Iceberg Research publicly announced its short position, claiming that Pagaya has used third-party funds to hide significant losses.”

The Iceberg Research report, according to Investing.com “. . . detailed how Pagaya underwrites consumer loans that were originally rejected by its partners due to high risk. It then sells the majority of these loans through asset-backed securities (ABS) to institutional investors. Iceberg Research highlighted a pattern of questionable management decisions and potential conflicts of interest, pointing to the involvement of Pagaya’s CTO Avital Pardo in a previously collapsed company and President Sanjiv Das’s history of overlooking misconduct.”

Shares of Pagaya stock were down more than 11% during intraday trading on February 11, 2025.

Crocs Securities Class Action – CROX

Kehoe Law Firm, P.C. is notifying investors that a federal securities class action complaint was filed against Crocs, Inc. (“Crocs” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CROX) on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Crocs common stock between November 3, 2022 and October 28, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”). 

Summary of Class Action Lawsuit Allegations Against Crocs

During the Class Period, the Crocs Defendants allegedly misled investors by concealing that HEYDUDE’s strong revenue growth after its February 2022 acquisition was primarily driven by Crocs management’s deliberate decision to aggressively stock third-party wholesalers, regardless of the level of actual retail demand.

This overstocking strategy allegedly continued despite assurances from the Company’s CEO that Crocs would not force excess inventory onto wholesalers. As a result, HEYDUDE’s reported 2022 revenue did not reflect true retail demand and was unsustainable over the long term.

Additionally, after the Company’s retail partners began destocking excess inventory, the Crocs Defendants allegedly misled investors by concealing that declining demand for HEYDUDE shoes would further impact the Company’s financial results.

Crocs Reports HEYDUDE’s Revenue Shortfall Due to Excess Market Inventory 

According to the class action complaint, “[o]n October 29, 2024, investors learned more about HEYDUDE’s prospects when the Company reported its financial results for the third quarter of 2024. During the accompanying earnings call, Defendant Rees disclosed that HEYDUDE revenues fell below the Company’s expectations and revealed that ‘HEYDUDE’s recent performance and the current operating environment are signaling it will take longer than we had initially planned for the business to turn the corner.'”

Further, “Rees attributed HEYDUDE’s struggles to ‘excess inventories in the market’ and admitted that ‘we’ve made good progress, but frankly, not quite all the progress we want to make’ in resolving the inventory issue. Moreover, Rees admitted that ‘if you think about this sort of [20]22 into [20]23 timeframe, in retrospect, we absolutely shipped too much product[],’ calling that decision “wrong” and highlighting that a lack of product demand exacerbated the issue.”

The price of Crocs common stock dropped $26.47 per share, falling from a closing price of $138.05 on October 28, 2024 to $111.58 on October 29, 2024.

    Transocean Ltd. Securities Class Action Complaint Filed – RIG

    Kehoe Law Firm, P.C. informs investors that on February 7, 2025, a federal securities class action complaint was filed against Transocean Ltd. (“Transocean” or the “Company”) (NYSE:RIG) in United States District Court, Southern District of New York, on behalf of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Transocean securities between May 1, 2023 and September 2, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”). 

    Class Action Complaint Allegations 

    Throughout the Class Period, the defendants allegedly failed to disclose that the Discoverer Inspiration and the Development Driller III were considered non-strategic assets; Transocean’s recorded asset valuations were overstated; and the sale of these rigs would result in a significant impairment charge of nearly twice the sale price of the vessels.

    According to the complaint, “[i]nvestors began to question the veracity of [d]efendants’ public statements on September 3, 2024 when Transocean announced, while the market was closed, ‘as part of the Company’s effort to dispose of non-strategic assets[,]’ the Company had agreed to sell the Development Driller III and the Discoverer Inspiration and associated other assets for an aggregate $342 million.”

    Transocean, according to the complaint, “. . . further announced that the sales would result in an estimated third-quarter non-cash charge of up to $645 million associated with the impairment of said assets. Therefore, the Company’s expected proceeds from the sale of the two aforementioned rigs was only approximately half the impairment the Company was required to take for the sale.”

    When this news entered the market, Transocean’s stock price declined, closing at $4.32 per share on September 3, 2024.
