In Re Nike, Inc. Securities Litigation
In Re Nike, Inc. Securities Litigation (D. Or.): Cohen Milstein represents investors in a securities class action against Nike and certain directors and officers for making misstatements and omissions about the success of a key corporate strategy called “Consumer Direct Acceleration,” which had the purpose and effect of propelling long-term sustainable financial growth for the benefit of Nike and its shareholders. However, when Nike’s alleged fraud was finally revealed Nike’s stock collapsed nearly 20%—the largest stock price drop in Nike’s history, wiping out billions of dollars in shareholder value.
