Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP, a Leading Securities Fraud Law Firm Encourages iRobot Corporation (IRBT) Investors To Inquire About Securities Fraud Class Action
IF YOU SUFFERED A LOSS ON YOUR IROBOT CORPORATION (IRBT), CLICK HERE TO INQUIRE ABOUT POTENTIALLY PURSUING CLAIMS TO RECOVER YOUR LOSS UNDER THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS
What Happened?
On March 12, 2025, iRobot released its fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results, reporting a loss of $2.06 per share on revenue of $172 million, representing a 44% year-over-year decline and stating that 'there can be no assurance that [iRobot's] new product launches will be successful due to potential factors, including, but not limited to consumer demand, competition, macroeconomic conditions, and tariff policies.' Accordingly, '[g]iven these uncertainties and the implication they may have on the Company's financials, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the issuance of its consolidated 2024 financial statements.'
On this news, iRobot's stock price fell $3.255, or 51.6%, over two consecutive trading days, to close at $3.055 per share on March 13, 2025, thereby injuring investors.
What Is The Lawsuit About?
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) iRobot overstated the extent to which the Restructuring Plan would help the Company maintain stability after the termination of the Amazon Acquisition; (2) as a result, it was unlikely that iRobot would be able to profitably operate as a standalone company; (3) accordingly, there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern; and (4) as a result, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
If you purchased or otherwise acquired iRobot securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than September 5, 2025 to request appointment as lead plaintiff in this putative class action lawsuit.

Investors seek protection from risk of U.S. Fed Chair Jerome Powell's ouster
U.S. President Donald Trump's renewed calls for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's resignation have prompted investors to protect portfolios against the risk of higher inflation, as a central bank more willing to lower interest rates could fuel price rises and make lenders demand higher compensation to hold bonds. While a Fed chief more friendly to cutting rates could be mixed for equities in the short term, it would translate into a weaker U.S. dollar, increased volatility in the Treasuries market and higher longer-term rates, meaning more expensive borrowing costs for mortgages and corporate bonds. Since returning to the White House in January, Trump has repeatedly railed against the Powell-led Fed for not cutting interest rates. If market participants perceive that Fed independence is eroding, moves in financial assets could be wild, some analysts say. One of the top risks is that investors will sell Treasury bonds, lifting interest rates on longer-term maturities in the U.S. debt market relative to short-term securities. 'If markets believe that a politically-captured Fed will lower rates to stimulate growth regardless of economic consequences, long-term inflation expectations will rise, causing the curve to steepen,' said Guy LeBas, chief fixed income strategist at asset manager Janney Capital Management. Fed's Powell asks for inspector-general review of project criticized by Trump officials 'It's impossible to be confident in the magnitude of the move, but my guess is it'll be large - possibly measured in percent increases in 30-year Treasury yields, not basis points.' The minutes from the Fed's June 17-18 meeting, which were released last week, showed little support for a cut at the central bank's July 29-30 meeting, as most policymakers remain concerned about the inflationary risks that Trump's import tariffs could pose. Even so, Trump has said Powell's resignation 'would be a great thing.' The President, who cannot fire the Fed chief over a monetary policy dispute, and his administration have publicly called for Powell's exit or for rates to be cut on multiple occasions this month. 'While short-dated yields could fall in this scenario based on a faster pace of Fed rate cuts moving forward, longer-dated yields would likely recalibrate higher for stickier inflation and rising term premia based on the erosion of institutional trust,' said Chip Hughey, managing director of fixed income at Truist Advisory Services. Bond investors are pricing in increased price pressures in the inflation market over the next few years. Breakeven inflation as indicated in the U.S. five-year Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities hit 2.476 per cent late on Monday, a three-month high. In a recent escalation of criticism of Powell, the White House is probing cost overruns in the renovation of the Fed's historic headquarters in Washington. The questioning has intensified concerns among market participants over risks that the Trump administration will try to fire Powell for cause, perhaps the only legal path for it to do so. U.S. Treasury 30-year yields on Tuesday topped 5 per cent for the first time since late May, as investors fretted about the country's huge fiscal deficit and assessed the risk of Powell's exit from the central bank. A Fed spokesperson pointed to Powell's previous statements. The Fed chief, who was appointed by Trump during the president's first term in the White House, has repeatedly said he has no plans to leave his post as head of the U.S. central bank before his term expires on May 15, 2026. Powell's seat on the Fed's Board of Governors extends to Jan. 31, 2028. The White House did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. 'I still see the risks as fairly minimal, but higher than they were a week or two ago,' said Matt Orton, head of market strategy at Raymond James Investment Management. Orton still favors a diversification away from Treasuries and into gold, as well as both high-quality value and growth equities. 'The risk-reward for me in Treasuries right now just isn't there.' Opinion: Donald Trump's fresh Fed attack simmers in markets While the odds of Powell being ousted or resigning are viewed as low, analysts see some chance that Trump could nominate someone for the job early to influence monetary policy through a 'shadow' Fed chief. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said earlier this month the Trump administration is focusing now on finding a replacement for Powell this fall. Morgan Stanley said in a note that the risk of a shadow Fed chief is a less relevant question at this point. 'Until Powell's term is up, though, the bigger risk to our Fed forecast is our economic forecast ... where we remain quite humble,' Seth Carpenter, Morgan Stanley's chief global economist, wrote. Although market participants see the risk of weakening the central bank's independence as low, many investors are increasingly incorporating this prospect into their portfolios. JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon pointed to those risks in an earnings call on Tuesday, saying: 'The independence of the Fed is absolutely critical, and not just for the current Fed chairman, who I respect, Jay Powell, but for the next Fed chairman.' 'Playing around with the Fed can often have adverse consequences, absolutely opposite of what you might be hoping for,' Dimon added. George Bory, chief investment strategist for fixed income at Allspring, said the asset manager has been positioning for steeper yield curves, in line with an environment of future rate cuts and growing budget deficits. 'That strategy of positioning for a steeper yield curve over the coming months and quarters seems to make a lot of sense. It's justified economically, the technicals support it, and then the political landscape also,' he said. If stocks could get a boost from lower rates initially, the pressure from higher long-term rates would cast a shadow over them, investors say. Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Cresset Capital, said U.S. equities would 'probably be OK, but I think that it would likely continue to accelerate the trend of global investors moving capital away from the U.S.' 'Once investors question the independence of the Fed, it just becomes a less stable monetary environment,' Ablin said.
