The securities class action alleges that PayPal made materially false and misleading statements and omissions about the growth in the number of its net new active accounts ('NNAs') and that the metric was an important indicator of the Company's performance. PayPal earns a fee with each payment transaction, and therefore, the more active accountholders it has, the more revenues it could generate.
PayPal failed to disclose, however, that millions of the new accounts generated through the Company's cash incentive marketing program, which increased its NNA numbers, were fraudulent accounts.
The truth was disclosed on February 1, 2022, when PayPal reported disappointing fourth quarter and full year results for 2021, and revealed that 4.5 million accounts were illegitimately created. Paypal reduced its forecast for NNAs and announced that it would focus on increasing the engagement of its active users, which would reduce its ability to maintain growth in its NNA figures. On this news, the price of PayPal common stock fell $43.23 per share, or 24.59%, from its closing price of $175.80 per share on February 1, 2022, to close at $132.57 on February 2, 2022, on unusually high trading volume.
