Wolf Popper LLP Announces Investigation On Behalf Of Investors In Nutanix, Inc.
Beginning on March 2, 2018 , Nutanix and its senior executives made repeated statements that Nutanix was investing heavily in growth while maintaining high profit margins. On February 28, 2019 , Nutanix announced its second quarter fiscal 2019 results and reported third quarter guidance that was below analysts' expectations. Management acknowledged that "inadequate marketing spend for pipeline generation and slower than expected sales hiring" were the reasons for the weak guidance.
As a result of this news, Nutanix's stock price fell on March 1, 2019 , by $16.39 per share or 33% on very heavy volume. Nutanix senior officers, including its Chief Revenue Officer, took advantage of these false statements by selling Nutanix common stock at inflated prices.
