The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. (ZI) Investors

The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. (“ZoomInfo” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ZI) common stock between November 10, 2020 and August 5, 2024,, inclusive (the “Class Period”). ZoomInfo investors have until November 4, 2024 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

On August 5, 2024, ZoomInfo released its second quarter 2024 financial results, missing revenue and earnings expectations, and lowering its full-year guidance for revenue, adjusted operating income, and free cash flow. Additionally, the Company revealed that it was incurring a $33 million charge related to non-payments by its customers, implementing a “‘new business risk model’” to address elevated write-offs, and announced that its CFO and principal finance officer would be departing.

On this news, ZoomInfo’s stock price fell $1.79, or 10.3%, to close at $8.01 per share on August 6, 2024, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that 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: (1) that ZoomInfo’s financial and operational results during the Class Period had been temporarily inflated by the ephemeral effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had pulled-forward demand for the Company’s database of digital contact information; (2) that material portions of ZoomInfo’s existing customer base were attempting to either substantially reduce their use of the Company’s product or abandon it altogether; (3) that ZoomInfo had used manipulative and coercive auto-renew policies and threats of litigation to force customers into remaining with the Company for an additional contractual term even though such customers did not want to; (4) that ZoomInfo’s coercive customer retention tactics had materially damaged the Company’s customer relationships, client franchise, and competitive advantages, and created a hidden demand cliff for customer contract renewals in future periods; (5) that ZoomInfo’s reported accounts receivable were materially comprised of debts owed by high-risk small business customers that had a high likelihood of non-payment and had been induced to transact with the Company through a credit program the Company implemented in 2022; (6) that ZoomInfo’s allowance for credit losses was materially inadequate and understated the risk of non-payments by the Company’s customers; and (7) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
