Case Status:    SETTLED
On or around 12/01/2023 (Date of order of final judgment)

Filing Date: July 21, 2020

According to the Complaint, Tufin Software Technologies Ltd. develops, markets, and sells software-based solutions primarily in the United States, Europe, and Asia.

On April 11, 2019, Tufin filed a prospectus for its initial public offering (the “IPO”) on Form 424B4, which incorporated and formed part of the April Registration Statement (the “April Prospectus” and collectively, with the April Registration Statement, the “IPO Offering Documents”), issuing 7,700,000 ordinary shares to the investing public at $14.00 per share (the “IPO Price”), for anticipated gross proceeds of $107,800,000.

On December 2, 2019, the Company filed a second registration statement with the SEC on Form F-1, which was declared effective on December 5, 2019 (the “December Registration Statement”). Thereafter, on December 5, 2019, Tufin filed a prospectus for its secondary offering (the “SPO”) on Form 424B4, which incorporated and formed part of the December Registration Statement (the “December Prospectus” and collectively, with the December Registration Statement, “SPO Offering Documents”), issuing an additional 4,279,882 ordinary shares to the investing public at $17.00 per share (the “SPO Price”), for anticipated gross proceeds of $72,757,994.

The Complaint alleges that Defendants violated provisions of the Securities Act by issuing false and misleading registration statements and prospectuses in connection with both its IPO and its SPO. Specifically, the Complaint alleges that Defendants misled investors with respect to the Company’s North American business, customer relationships and growth metrics, and the fact that Tufin’s business was deteriorating, and, as a result, Tufin’s representations regarding its sustainable financial prospects were overly optimistic—all of which was known to, and concealed by, Defendants at the time of the IPO and SPO.

On October 19, 2020, the Court issued an Order consolidating cases and appointing Lead Plaintiff and Counsel. All future docketing was ordered to be done in the lead case 20-CV-05646.

Lead Plaintiff filed a consolidated Complaint on February 4, 2021. Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the consolidated Complaint on May 20.

On February 25, 2022, the Court issued an Order granting in part and denying in part Defendants' Motion to Dismiss. Plaintiff was given leave to amend the Complaint to replead the stricken claims. On March 31, Lead Plaintiff filed a second amended consolidated Complaint.

On July 7, 2023, the parties entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement. The Court granted preliminary approval of the Settlement on August 10. On December 1, the Court granted final approval of the Settlement, including an award of Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses, and entered Final Judgment.

On April 1, 2024, the Court issued an Order approving Distribution of the Settlement funds.
