On September 22, 2016, Defendants disclosed that hackers stole information in late 2014 on more than 500 million user accounts. This news drove the price of Yahoo shares down over 3%. Then, on December 14, 2016, Defendants disclosed that in August 2013 hackers stole information on more than 1 billion user accounts. This news drove the price of Yahoo shares down over 6%.
More recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that the SEC has opened an investigation into the timing of Yahoo’s disclosures regarding the data breaches, stating “The SEC requires companies to disclose cybersecurity risks as soon as they are determined to have an effect on investors.”
“We’re evaluating management’s knowledge of both security incidents and when disclosures should have been made to investors,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
