Skechers designs, develops, and markets footwear for men, women, and children.

The lawsuit claims that Skechers repeatedly touted the strength of customer demand within its Domestic Wholesale segment, which the Company claimed would spur continued sales growth.

However, these statements were false and misleading because the Company failed to disclose that: (1) customers took early receipt of fall 2015 inventory, causing them to delay receipt of and, in some cases, cancel pending orders scheduled for delivery in the second half of 2015; (2) as a result, the Domestic Wholesale segment’s growth rate was unsustainable; and (3) the Company’s positive statements about its business, operations, and prospects therefore lacked a reasonable basis.

Skechers’ slowing sales growth was revealed on October 22, 2015, after the market closed, when the Company issued a press release announcing financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015, which included disappointing net sales that fell short of analyst estimates. Specifically, $20 million in net sales were shifted from third quarter 2015 into second quarter 2015 due to early customer deliveries.

On this news, the price of Skechers common stock fell $14.55 per share, or 31.5%, to close at $31.64 on October 23, 2015.
