CASE ALLEGATIONS: SoundHound provides an independent voice AI platform that purportedly enables businesses across industries to deliver high-quality conversational experiences to their customers.
The SoundHound class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) material weaknesses in SoundHound’s internal controls over financial reporting impaired SoundHound’s ability to effectively account for corporate acquisitions; (ii) in addition, SoundHound overstated the extent to which it had remediated, and/or its ability to remediate, the material weaknesses in its internal controls over financial reporting; (iii) as a result of the foregoing material weaknesses, SoundHound’s reported goodwill following its acquisition of Amelia Holdings, Inc. was inflated and would need to be corrected; (iv) further, SoundHound would likely require extra time and expense to effectively account for its SYNQ3 and Amelia acquisitions; and (v) the above increased the risk that SoundHound would be unable to timely file certain financial reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The SoundHound class action lawsuit further alleges that on March 4, 2025, SoundHound disclosed that it would be unable to timely file its annual report for 2024, stating that “[d]ue to the complexity of accounting for [the SYNQ3 and Amelia acquisitions], the Company require[d] additional time to prepare financial statements and the accompanying notes” and that SoundHound “ha[d] identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting.” On this news, the price of SoundHound stock fell nearly 6%, according to the complaint.
THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired SoundHound securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the SoundHound class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the SoundHound class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the SoundHound class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the SoundHound class action lawsuit.
