Case Background:
This is a federal securities fraud class action lawsuit on behalf of all persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Generac Holdings Inc. (“Generac” or the “Company”) (NYSE: GNRC) common stock between April 29, 2021 and November 1, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Company had been suffering substantial declines in demand for its legacy generator product offerings, causing the Company to slash product prices by nearly 20% and engage in a massive acquisition spree in an attempt to offset waning demand; (2) SnapRS components being marketed and sold through a partnership with the Company suffered from serious product defect and safety issues; (3) the Company was exposed to significant impending warranty liability related to the Company's participation in the sale of SnapRS components; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, the strength of the Company's business metrics and financial prospects had been grossly overstated and materially misrepresented throughout the Class Period.
Current Status of Case:
On April 30, 2025, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint. The Motion is fully briefed and pending decision before the Court. This action is ongoing.
