Kuehn Law, PLLC, a prominent shareholder litigation firm, has launched an investigation into potential breaches of fiduciary duties by certain officers and directors of Fiserv, Inc. (NYSE: FI). This comes in light of allegations stemming from a federal securities lawsuit claiming that insiders at Fiserv misrepresented critical information regarding the company’s operations and financial health.
The lawsuit highlights several key issues related to Fiserv’s Payeezy platform, indicating that the company pressured merchants using Payeezy to transition to its Clover platform due to cost-related challenges. According to the claims, this forced migration resulted in a temporary boost in Clover’s revenue growth, masking a decline in new merchant acquisitions.
Concerns have been raised that shortly after these transitions, many of the former Payeezy merchants began to switch to competing services. This shift was attributed to various factors, including Clover’s pricing structure and perceived inadequate customer support. Consequently, the lawsuit asserts that Clover’s growth in gross payment volume (GPV) was slowing significantly, leading to unsustainable revenue growth.
According to the lawsuit, statements made by Fiserv during the Class Period about Clover’s business prospects were materially misleading. The allegations suggest that the company’s optimistic claims about Clover’s growth strategies, market competition, and overall business viability were not reflective of the underlying issues affecting its operations.
