According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) common stock pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's March 26, 2014 Initial Public Offering ("IPO"), that the defendants violated Federal Securities Laws. More specifically, the plaintiff claims that the Registration Statement issued in connection with the IPO failed to disclose that a significant number of individuals paying to play Candy Crush Saga—the primary source of the Company's revenue—were no longer playing Candy Crush saga, and that as a result of such decline, Candy Crush Saga was hampering the Company's financial results. When the true details entered the market, the suit claims that investors suffered damages.
