The Coupang, Inc. (CPNG) Securities Class Action:

The complaint focuses on the propriety of several of Coupang's recent assurances to investors.

Beginning on May 6, 2025, after the markets closed, Coupang filed its quarterly report for the period ended March 31, 2025. Within its filing, Coupang assured investors that it designed sufficient disclosure controls and procedures and there had been“[n]o material change in the risk factors” that“could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.”

Then, on June 30, 2025, Coupang issued a privacy notice on its website to Korean customers assuring them and investors that“Coupang has technical and administrative safeguard measures in place to ensure that users' personal information is not stolen, leaked, forged or damaged while processing the information.”

The next month, on July 15, 2025, the South Korean press quoted Coupang's Chief Information Security Officer (Brett Matthes) who reportedly said“'Coupang's []proactive []security has improved threat visibility and mitigated potential cyber threats in advance[,]”' and that“'[a] shift in mindset to focus on the threat actor has significant benefits.'”

The complaint alleges that Coupang gave the same or similar assurances through November 4, 2025, when the company filed its quarterly report for the period ended September 30, 2025.

Investors began to question Coupang's assurances on November 29, 2025. That day, Coupang announced in a press release that on November 18 it became aware of unauthorized personal data access involving about 4,500 customer accounts but that, pursuant to its subsequent investigation,“the extent of customer account exposure is about 33.7 million accounts, all in Korea.”

Then, on December 16, 2025, Coupang filed an interim report on Form 8-K confirming that it first became aware of“a cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access to customer accounts[]” on November 18, blamed it on a former employee, and warned that it could face material financial losses from the potential loss of revenue and higher expense, including regulatory penalties.

After the Class Period, on December 29, 2025, Coupang announced a 1.685 trillion won (over $1 billion) compensation plan“to restore customer trust.”

Between the publication of the November 30, 2025, Reuters article and the filing of the suit, over $8 billion of Coupang's market capitalization was wiped out.

“We are investigating the alleged misstatements and why it allegedly took Coupang weeks to inform shareholders of a breach of this magnitude,” said Reed Kathrein
