LOS ANGELES--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--The Law Offices of Todd M. Garber announces that shareholders of Zynga Inc. (aZyngaa or the aCompanya) (NASDAQ:ZNGA) have until October 1, 2012 to move for lead plaintiff status in the shareholder lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of a class (the aClassa) comprising all purchasers of Zynga securities between December 16, 2011 and July 25, 2012, inclusive (the aClass Perioda).
Zynga provides online social game services, and generates revenue through advertising and the in-game sale of avirtual goodsa to players. The Complaint alleges that: (i) despite a sustained decline in users of the Companyas games and declines in average bookings per user, Zynga issued positive financial forecasts between February and April 2012 that were not justified in light of the Companyas financial performance and trends; and (ii) the positive forecasts enabled senior executives and selected investors to sell nearly $600 million of Zynga shares at inflated prices in early April 2012 a" approximately two months before a lock-up period previously agreed to by Zynga executives was scheduled to expire.
On July 25, 2012 the Company announced sharply lower earnings and a significantly reduced outlook for 2012, cutting its forecasted adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (aEBITDAa) approximately by half, and cutting forecasted per-share earnings by more than two-thirds.
If you are a member of the above-described Class, you may move the Court no later than October 1, 2012 to serve as lead plaintiff; however, you must meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the Class you need not take any action at this time. You may retain counsel of your choice or take not action and remain an absent Class member. If you wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this Notice or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Todd M. Garber, Esquire, of the Law Offices of Todd M. Garber, by telephone at 213-700-7262 or by email to [ info@toddgarberlaw.com ].
