ROSEN, SKILLED INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages FIGS, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important January 3 Deadline in Securities Class Action – FIGS

NEW YORK, Dec. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the stock of FIGS, Inc. (NYSE: FIGS): (i) pursuant and/or traceable to the registration statement and related prospectus issued in connection with the Company’s 2021 initial public offering (the “IPO” or “Offering”); and/or (ii) between May 27, 2021 and May 12, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important January 3, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased FIGS securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the FIGS class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9629 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 3, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the registration statement supporting the IPO and defendants’ statements throughout the Class Period were false and/or misleading and/or failed to disclose that defendants: (1) inflated FIGS’ true ability to successfully secure repeat customers; (2) failed to disclose FIGS’ increasing dependence on air freight; and (3) inflated the expected net revenues, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA margin for 2022. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the FIGS class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9629 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
