He also urged all stakeholders associated with the school to work on increasing the number of its students, which stands at 68 currently. Batu MP and Mitra chairman P. Prabakaran, Sungai Siput MP S.

CAR Deadline: CAR Investors with Losses in Excess of $100K Have Opportunity to Lead Avis Budget Group, Inc. Securities Fraud Lawsuit
NEW YORK, June 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Avis Budget Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAR) between February 16, 2024 and February 10, 2025, both dates inclusive (the 'Class Period'), of the important June 24, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline. So What: If you purchased Avis Budget securities during the Class Period 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 Avis Budget class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@ 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 June 24, 2025. 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 litigate 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 achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. 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, during the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Avis Budget crafted and implemented a plan to significantly accelerate its fleet rotation in the fourth quarter of 2024; (2) the foregoing acceleration shortened the useful life of the majority of Avis Budget's vehicles in the Americas segment, thereby reducing their recoverable value; (3) as a result, Avis Budget would be forced to recognize billions of dollars in impairment charges and incur substantial losses; (4) all the foregoing was likely to, and did, have a significant negative impact on Avis Budget's financial results; (5) accordingly, Avis Budget's financial and/or business prospects were overstated; and (6) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. To join the Avis Budget class action, go to call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@ 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.
