FTRE INVESTOR NOTICE: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Announces that Fortrea Holdings Inc. Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Class Action Lawsuit
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Fortrea class action lawsuit. Captioned Deslande v. Fortrea Holdings Inc., No. 25-cv-04630 (S.D.N.Y.), the Fortrea class action lawsuit charges Fortrea and certain of Fortrea's top executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Fortrea class action lawsuit, please provide your information here: CASE ALLEGATIONS: Fortrea is a global clinical research organization ('CRO') that provides biopharmaceutical product and medical device development solutions to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device customers. According to the complaint, in June 2023, Labcorp Holdings Inc. spun off Fortrea as a standalone, publicly traded company (the 'Spin-Off'). At the time of the Spin-Off, certain of the long-term projects in Fortrea's portfolio remained ongoing (the 'Pre-Spin Projects'). In connection with the Spin-Off, Labcorp and Fortrea entered into several transition services agreements (the 'TSAs'), pursuant to which Fortrea pays Labcorp to provide certain transitional services for a set period. The Fortrea class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Fortrea overestimated the amount of revenue the Pre-Spin Projects were likely to contribute to Fortrea's 2025 earnings; (ii) Fortrea overstated the cost savings it would likely achieve by exiting the TSAs; (iii) as a result, Fortrea's previously announced EBITDA targets for 2025 were inflated; and (iv) accordingly, the viability of Fortrea's post-Spin-Off business model, as well as its business and/or financial prospects, were overstated. The Fortrea class action lawsuit further alleges that on September 25, 2024, Jefferies published a report downgrading Fortrea from buy to hold, citing perceived weaknesses in Fortrea's business model as a CRO amid pressure on biotechnology funding and suggested that the cost savings Fortrea expects to achieve by exiting the TSAs are '[n]ot as [m]aterial as [o]ne [m]ight [t]hink,' stating that 'IT infrastructure costs to exit the TSAs are already non-GAAPed out of adjusted EBITDA. Thus, once TSAs are exited, [Fortrea] will just be replacing TSA costs with internal operating costs.' On this news, the price of Fortrea stock fell more than 12%, according to the complaint. Then, on December 6, 2024, market analyst Baird Equity Research downgraded Fortrea to neutral from outperform after Fortrea abruptly cancelled two scheduled conferences, stating that '[g]iven our ongoing concerns around the sector, [Fortrea's] choppy history post spin, and lack of clarity on the abrupt communications course change, we cannot recommend an actionable investment (buy or sell),' according to the complaint. The Fortrea class action lawsuit alleges that on this news, the price of Fortrea stock fell more than 8%. Finally, on March 3, 2025, the Fortrea class action lawsuit further alleges that Fortrea announced its fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results, disclosing that its 'targeted revenue and adjusted EBITDA trajectories for 2025 [were] not in line with [its] prior expectations.' According to the complaint, specifically, in an earnings call held that same day, Fortrea revealed that Fortrea's Pre-Spin projects are 'late in their life cycle [and] have less revenue and less profitability than expected for 2025,' that 'post-spin work is not coming on fast enough to offset the pre-spin contract economics,' and that 'older versus newer mix issue will continue to negatively impact [Fortrea's] financial performance during 2025.' On this news, the price of Fortrea stock fell more than 25%, according to the Fortrea class action lawsuit. THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Fortrea securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Fortrea 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 Fortrea class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Fortrea class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Fortrea class action lawsuit. ABOUT ROBBINS GELLER: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP is one of the world's leading law firms representing investors in securities fraud and shareholder litigation. Our Firm has been ranked #1 in the ISS Securities Class Action Services rankings for four out of the last five years for securing the most monetary relief for investors.

NVIDIA Blackwell Fuels AI Surge -- Super Micro Emerges as Top Winner
June 6 - Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) is poised to gain as NVIDIA's (NASDAQ:NVDA) Blackwell GPU rollout accelerates. Analysts point to a $20 billion partnership with Saudi data center firm DataVolt and upbeat upgrades as key drivers. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with SMCI. Last week, NVIDIA reported that Blackwell chips now account for about 70% of its data center revenue, with sales roughly doubling quarter over quarter. These GPUs power cutting-edge AI workloads, and Super Micro's server designs are built to match that demand. SMCI's modular systems feature advanced cooling and power management, making them an ideal match for Blackwell's dense computing requirements. The companies collaborate closely on software integration, ensuring SMCI servers support the latest NVIDIA architectures from day one. Additionally, SMCI's partnership with Saudi data center operator DataVolt, valued at $20 billion, underscores its role in supplying high-density GPU servers. As Blackwell deployments spread across hyperscale facilities, SMCI stands to benefit from strong demand for customizable, high-performance infrastructure. While SMCI's profit margins remain tighter than some peers, its agility in aligning with NVIDIA's AI roadmap helps drive growth. Investors monitoring AI hardware trends view SMCI as a key beneficiary of NVIDIA's expanding GPU ecosystem. Based on the one year price targets offered by 15 analysts, the average target price for Super Micro Computer Inc is $40.00 with a high estimate of $70.00 and a low estimate of $15.00. The average target implies a downside of -1.90% from the current price of $40.77. Based on GuruFocus estimates, the estimated GF Value for Super Micro Computer Inc in one year is $68.35, suggesting a upside of +67.65% from the current price of $40.77.
