New York, NY — Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP, a prominent securities law firm, has initiated a lawsuit against Semtech Corp. and some of its top executives, alleging breaches of federal securities laws. The suit claims the defendants misled investors about the capabilities of Semtech’s CopperEdge products, particularly regarding their suitability for customer service racks and the necessity for architectural modifications.
The legal action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, and is recorded under the case number Kleovoulos v. Semtech Corporation, et al., No. 25-cv-1474. Investors who purchased Semtech securities have a deadline of April 22, 2025, to request the court appoint them as lead plaintiff in the case.
The allegations center on Semtech’s communications to investors concerning its CopperEdge product line, an integral part of the company’s offerings in the semiconductor and cloud connectivity sectors. The complaint suggests that Semtech overstated the efficacy of these products during a specified period, asserting their performance and adaptability were below expectations and required substantial modifications.
This purported revelation had a detrimental impact on Semtech’s stock value. On February 7, 2025, after the market closed, Semtech disclosed that projected net sales for CopperEdge in fiscal year 2026 would likely fall below preliminary estimates of $50 million. This was reportedly due to the need for changes in rack architecture, based on feedback from server rack users and customers, with no significant improvement anticipated throughout the fiscal year.
The subsequent trading day witnessed a dramatic drop in Semtech’s stock price, which plummeted more than 31% from $54.51 to $37.60. This marked the company’s steepest single-day decline in nearly four decades.
Investors affected by the stock’s decline may explore legal avenues by submitting their details to Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP. The law firm operates on a contingency fee basis, meaning that clients are not responsible for upfront costs related to court or litigation expenses. Any potential fees and costs would need judicial approval.
Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP, recognized among the Top 5 plaintiff law firms by ISS SCAS in 2023, has a history of significant recoveries, including settlements amounting over $900 million with Tesla, Inc.’s Board of Directors and $420 million from Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.
As legal proceedings unfold, investors and spectators alike are keenly monitoring the developments surrounding Semtech and the implications for its financial and operational future.
