Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming June 10, 2024 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the case filed on behalf of investors who purchased Sonder Holdings Inc. (“Sonder” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SOND) securities between March 16, 2023 and March 15, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

Investors suffering losses on their Sonder investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at (215) 638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com.

On March 15, 2024, Sonder disclosed that it would be unable to timely file its fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results, and that it had determined that the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the first three quarters of 2023 “should no longer be relied upon due to accounting errors related to the valuation and impairment of operating lease right of use assets and related items.” Additionally, the Company stated that it anticipates an ongoing assessment “will result in one or more material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the applicable periods, in addition to the Company’s previously identified and reported material weaknesses.”

On this news, Sonder’s stock price fell $2.10, or 38.2%, to close at $3.40 per share on March 18, 2024, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Sonder failed to disclose all issues with its internal controls; (2) Sonder’s financial statements for the 2022 Annual Report and the interim periods ended March 31, June 30, and September 30, 2023 contained material errors in the way the Company accounted for the valuation and impairment of operating lease ROU assets; (3) as a result, Sonder would need to restate its previously issued financial statements for those periods; and (4) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Sonder securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than June 10, 2024 to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff if you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the class action you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the class action.
