Background on the Stamps Securities Class Litigation

Stamps, headquartered in El Segundo, California, is a provider of Internet-based mailing and shipping solutions in the United States. Under the Stamps and Endicia brands, Stamps customers use United States Postal Service (“USPS”) services to mail and ship mail pieces and packages through the USPS.

The action alleges that Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company’s financial results relied on the manipulation of a USPS program that cost USPS an estimated $235 million per year; and (ii) as a result, the Company’s business was unsustainable and its financial results were misleading.

After the market closed on February 21, 2019, Stamps held a conference call to discuss its financial results from the 4th quarter of 2018 and fiscal year 2018. On the call, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Kenneth McBride stated that Stamps had decided to discontinue its shipping partnership with the USPS, even though business related to the USPS accounts for 87% of the Company’s revenue. Additionally, Stamps announced that 2019 revenue was expected to decline 5.4%. On this news, the price of Stamps’ stock dropped $114.43, or 57.77% from a closing price of $198.08 on February 21, 2019, to close at $83.65 on February 22, 2019, on extremely elevated trading volume.

On February 26, 2019, reports surfaced that, contrary to McBride’s statements, USPS itself had decided to terminate its relationship with Stamps.com on account of the Company’s increasing demands and abuses of the reseller program.
