What is this Case About: Kornit Digital Ltd. (KRNT) Misrepresented its Business Prospects to Investors

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants touted the purported competitive advantages provided by its technology and assured investors that it faced virtually no meaningful competition in the “direct-to-garment” printing market. The Company also represented that there was strong demand for its digital printing systems and consumable products, as well as the services Kornit provided customers to maintain and manage its digital printers, and to manage customer workflow.

In truth, Kornit and its senior executives knew or, at a minimum, recklessly disregarded, that the Company’s digital printing business was beset by significant quality control problems and deficient customer service. As a result, Kornit was more vulnerable to pressure from competitors than it had represented and lacked the competitive advantages it touted to investors. Those problems and deficiencies caused Kornit to lose market share to competitors, which led to a decline in the Company’s revenues, as Kornit’s dissatisfied customers sought out alternative options for their digital printing needs. In addition, to the extent that the Company purported to warn of risks regarding quality and customer service issues as well as increased competition, Kornit failed to disclose that such risks had already materialized.

On May 11, 2022, Kornit reported its financial results for the first quarter of 2022, reporting a net loss of $5.2 million, compared to a profit of $5.1 million for the first quarter of 2021. Kornit also told investors the second quarter of 2022 would see lower than expected revenue and profitability. This and other disclosures caused the price of Kornit ordinary shares to decline by $18.78 per share, or 33%, to close at $37.63 per share on May 11, 2022.

Then, on July 5, 2022, Kornit announced its preliminary financial results for the second quarter of 2022. The Company disclosed that it would report a significant revenue shortfall in the quarter. Specifically, Kornit expected revenue for the second quarter to be in the range of $56.4 million to $59.4 million, representing a reduction of more than 35% at the midpoint of Kornit’s previous revenue guidance of between $85 million and $95 million that the Company provided less than two months earlier. On this news, the price of Kornit ordinary shares declined by an additional $8.10 per share, or 25.7%, to close at $23.46 per share on July 6, 2022.
