If you purchased or acquired Cerence Inc. common stock between November 16, 2020, and February 4, 2022, you may be eligible to claim compensation from a class action settlement.

Cerence Inc. has agreed to pay $30,000,000 to settle a class action lawsuit for alleged misrepresentations and omissions regarding a scheme to pull forward revenues from future quarters to meet revenue guidance.

Who can file a claim?

To be eligible to file a claim, you must meet the following criteria:

  • You purchased or otherwise acquired Cerence common stock during the period from November 16, 2020, through February 4, 2022
  • You suffered losses

How much can class members get?

The estimated average recovery per eligible share of Cerence common stock is approximately $1.12 before deductions for court-approved fees, expenses, and costs.

The actual amount received will depend on several factors, including:

  • The number of valid claims submitted.
  • The number of shares purchased and sold during the Class Period.
  • The timing of purchases and sales.

For example, if a class member purchased 100 shares at $50 each and sold them at $30 each, their recognized loss would be calculated based on the difference in the purchase and sale price, adjusted for the average closing price during the 90-day look-back period.

Claimants need to provide proof of their transactions in Cerence common stock. Documentation such as brokerage confirmation slips, monthly brokerage account statements, or authorized statements from brokers containing transactional information must be submitted.
