Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action lawsuit that has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased or acquired the common stock of Amplitude, Inc. (“Amplitude or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AMPL) between September 21, 2021 and February 16, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”). The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California and alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company and certain of its officers (the “Complaint”).

If you purchased or acquired Amplitude common stock, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit Amplitude, Inc. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Investor Relations Manager Peter Allocco at (212) 951-2030 or pallocco@bernlieb.com.

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than April 15, 2024. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn’t require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.

According to the Complaint, Amplitude is a technology company that helps businesses analyze data for their digital products and track customer interactions. Beginning in September 2021, Amplitude claimed to be experiencing extraordinary growth due to “strong demand for [its products]” and a “robust” expansion from existing customers. Specifically, in connection with the Company’s second quarter 2021 earnings, Amplitude reported that “revenue growth accelerated” during the quarter and was “up 66% year over year.” The Company similarly reported that a key growth metric, known as current remaining performance obligations, was up 76% year-over-year and that its dollar-based net retention rate was 119%.

Throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (i) Amplitude’s land-and-expand strategy was years away from significantly accelerating revenues among its newer client cohorts; and (ii) the rapid acceleration in Amplitude’s second quarter of 2021 results resulted from the ephemeral effects of the COVID-19 pandemic which had not continued by the start of the Class Period, as Amplitude clients were expanding at a slower pace.

After the market closed on February 16, 2022, Amplitude revealed its fourth quarter 2021 results and revised downward its 2022 fiscal guidance. Most troubling, the Company revealed that its vaunted land-and-expand strategy, which defendants had claimed had already proven successful, was in fact poised to “take a few years” before it was expected to accelerate results and that despite their prior assurances of sustainable growth, Amplitude management “really [did not] know” when this impact would occur.

On this news, Amplitude’s stock price fell $24.51, or 58.9%, to close at $17.10 per share on February 17, 2022.
