WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles.

The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the registration statement and prospectus used to effectuate the Company’s IPO contained untrue statements of material fact or omitted to state other facts necessary to make the statements made not misleading and was not prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations governing its preparation. Specifically, the offering documents made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) F45’s rapid growth strategy was unsustainable, reliant on, among other things, franchisees opening multiple locations in a short period of time and/or dependent on franchisees who required near 100% financing of their operations in order to open for business; and (2) as a result, the offering documents misrepresented and failed to disclose material adverse facts pertaining to the Company’s business, operations, and prospects.

ROSEN, GLOBALLY RECOGNIZED INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages Torrid Holdings Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – CURV

NEW YORK, Dec. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Torrid Holdings (NYSE: CURV) pursuant and/or traceable to the Company’s initial public offering conducted in July 2021 (the “IPO”), of the important January 17, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Torrid 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 Torrid class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9874 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 17, 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 IPO’s offering documents failed to disclose the following material facts: (1) in the first half of 2021, Torrid had experienced a temporary surge in demand as a result of changed consumer behaviors in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and government stimulus and that such ephemeral demand trends had dissipated and were not internally projected to continue following the IPO; (2) Torrid was suffering from severe supply chain disruptions caused by the emergence of the Delta variant of COVID-19, which had first emerged in May 2021; (3) Torrid was running materially below historical inventory levels as a result of supply chain disruptions; (4) as a result, Torrid did not have sufficient inventory to meet expected consumer demand for its fiscal third quarter of 2021; (5) as a result, late inventory arrival had materially impaired the Company from effectively matching consumer buying trends, creating an undisclosed risk of increased markdowns and promotional activities necessary to sell undesirable inventory; (6) Torrid’s CFO planned to retire shortly after the IPO; and (7) as a result of the above, the Registration Statement’s representations regarding Torrid’s historical financial and operational metrics and purported market opportunities did not accurately reflect the actual business, operations, financial results, and trajectory of the Company at the time of the IPO, and were materially false and misleading and lacked a reasonable factual basis.

FM Bilawal reiterates Pakistan’s firm resolve to continue efforts for eradication of terrorism

The Permanent Mission of Pakistan to the United Nations on Friday hosted a commemorative event titled Remembering Victims of Army Public School, Peshawar Terrorist Attack at the UN Headquarters to mark the 8th Anniversary of the Victims of the Terrorist Attack on Army Public School in Peshawar, Pakistan, falling on 16th December.

Pakistan hosted this event as part of the UN Office of Counter Terrorism’s Memories campaign that was launched in Malaga, Spain in May 2022 and also reflected in the first UN Global Congress of Victims of Terrorism that was held in September 2022 in New York.

The Army Public School terrorist attack killed more than 140 innocent civilians, including 132 children, at the hands of TTP terrorists. This was one of the most gruesome terrorist attacks in the history of Pakistan.

Addressing the event as Keynote Speaker, Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari reiterated Pakistan’s firm resolve to continue its efforts for the eradication of terrorism.

The Foreign Minister said the responsibility for the attack was claimed by the so-called Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, which is listed as a terrorist organization by the UN Security Council and several member states.

The Foreign Minister said the shock of this attack mobilized Pakistani nation and motivated us to eliminate terrorism from our soil. Massive military operations were undertaken to wipe out terrorists from our country.

He said unfortunately, the TTP and some other terrorist groups have found safe havens across the border from where they have been conducting periodic attacks against Pakistan’s military and civilian targets.

The Foreign Minister said to cover up its terrorist actions against Pakistan, India continues to try to discredit Pakistan by accusing it of terrorism.

He said we witnessed this propaganda again at the special CTC meeting held in India last October. India has also made efforts to discredit FATF and harm Pakistan. While Pakistan was preparing to exit from the FATF grey list, India made several proposals to the Security Council to list individuals already banned by Pakistan.

The Foreign Minister said over the years, Pakistan has exposed India’s two-pronged policy on terrorism, fomenting terrorism against Pakistan and other neighbours and against the people of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir on one side while pretending to be a victim.

He said Pakistan will continue its efforts to hold India accountable for its acts of terrorism.

The Foreign Minister said our intelligence agencies have concrete evidence of providing financial and organizational support and instructions to the TTP by agents of our neighbours.

He said we have shared with the UN Secretary General and the Security Council a comprehensive dossier containing concrete evidence of external support for the TTP and other terrorist groups working against Pakistan.

The Foreign Minister said we hope and expect that the new authorities in Kabul will be able to prevent the TTP from carrying out cross-border terrorist attacks against Pakistan as they promised in the Doha Agreement and subsequent policy declarations.
