Pivotal Accused of Inflating IPO Price

According to the complaint, Pivotal Software went public in an initial public offering in April 2018 for $638 million in gross proceeds. However, Pivotal failed to disclose it was already experiencing diminished growth prospects as customers and industry sentiment shifted away from Pivotal's principal offering because it was outdated and incompatible with the industry standard platform. As the truth was revealed, Pivotal shares plummeted. On June 4, 2019, Pivotal reported disappointing financial and operating results, which it attributed to sales execution challenges with its disjointed product offering and the need to reengineer its primary PAS. On this news, Pivotal's stock fell over 40% to close at $10.89 per share.
