Klarna IPO Lawsuits Mount Ahead of Feb. 20 Lead-Plaintiff Deadline

The filings stem from Klarna’s November disclosure of sharply higher credit-loss provisions soon after its $40-per-share debut.

Overview

  • Robbins Geller says a federal case, Nayak v. Klarna Group plc (E.D.N.Y.), accuses the company, certain executives, directors, and IPO underwriters of Securities Act violations.
  • Complaints claim the registration statement and prospectus misrepresented credit modeling and understated the likelihood that loss reserves would spike within months of the IPO.
  • Law firm notices cite Klarna’s Nov. 18, 2025 results, including a reported net loss of about $95 million and provisions for loan losses of roughly $235 million, or 0.72% of GMV.
  • Shares traded well below the $40 offering price after the disclosure, with one notice reporting the stock nearly 22% under the IPO level.
  • Hagens Berman, Kirby McInerney, The Schall Law Firm, Howard G. Smith, Bernstein Liebhard, and Rosen Law Firm are soliciting IPO investors to seek lead-plaintiff status by Feb. 20, 2026.
