SO WHAT: If you purchased Compass securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Compass class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 8, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, during the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Compass's subsidiary, Lugano Holdings, Inc., maintained unrecorded financing arrangements and irregularities in its sales, cost of sales, inventory, and accounts receivable; (2) the irregularities and undisclosed details in Lugano Holdings, Inc.'s financial statements rendered the financial statements of Compass as a whole unreliable, and would require restatement; (3) Compass failed to maintain adequate internal controls related to its financial statements; and (4) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. To join the Compass class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff. Follow us for updates on LinkedIn: on Twitter: or on Facebook: Attorney Advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. ------------------------------- Contact Information: Laurence Rosen, Esq. Phillip Kim, Esq.

Compass Diversified Provides an Update on its Financial Statements Amid the Ongoing Investigation into Lugano Holding, Inc.
WESTPORT, Conn., June 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) ('CODI') today disclosed non-reliance on its financial statements for fiscal years 2022 and 2023 amid an ongoing investigation into its subsidiary Lugano Holding, Inc. ('Lugano'). This follows CODI's May 7 disclosure concerning non-reliance on its 2024 financial statements. As previously disclosed, the investigation has preliminarily identified irregularities in Lugano's financing, accounting, and inventory practices. CODI is focused on completing the investigation, which is progressing in line with expectations, and actively working to finalize the necessary financial restatements. Importantly, the investigation is focused on Lugano and does not involve any of CODI's other subsidiaries. 'We remain confident in the performance and integrity of CODI's eight other subsidiary companies, all of which continue to operate normally, have strong balance sheets, and collectively generate substantial cash flow,' said Elias Sabo, CEO of CODI. 'We have ample liquidity and significant access to capital via our revolving credit facility. We continue to work constructively with our banking partners and bondholders to ensure flexibility and stability as we move forward. Our primary focus remains on maximizing long-term value for all stakeholders.' CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including without limitation, CODI's expectations as to the timing and outcome of the Lugano investigation, CODI's credit availability and future liquidity, actions taken in response to the outcome of the investigation, the future performance of Lugano and CODI's other subsidiaries, the filing or delay of CODI's periodic reports, and the amount of any potential misstatements associated with Lugano and the impact any such misstatements may have on CODI's previously issued financial statements or results of operations. Such forward looking statements may be identified by, among other things, the use of forward-looking terminology such as 'believe,' 'expect,' 'may,' 'could,' 'would,' 'plan,' 'intend,' 'estimate,' 'predict,' 'potential,' 'continue,' 'should' or 'anticipate' or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on beliefs and assumptions by the Board of Directors and management, and on information currently available to CODI's Board of Directors and management. These statements involve risk and uncertainties that could cause CODI's actual results and outcomes to differ, perhaps materially, including but not limited to: the discovery of additional information relevant to the investigation; the conclusions (and timing of those conclusions) concerning matters relating to the investigation; the timing of the review by, and the conclusions of, Grant Thornton regarding the investigation and CODI's financial statements; a further material delay in CODI's financial reporting or ability to hold an annual meeting of stockholders; the impacts of restatement reviews; the likelihood that the control deficiencies identified or that may be identified in the future will result in material weaknesses in CODI's internal control over financial reporting; and commercial litigation relating to the investigation, including CODI's representations regarding its financial statements, and the possibility of future litigation or investigation relating to CODI's internal controls, restatement reviews, the investigation, or related matters. Please see CODI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for other risk factors that you should consider in connection with such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date such statements have been made. Except as required by law CODI does not undertake any public obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances, or new information after the date of this press release, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Jefferies Cut Compass Diversified to Hold in Early June, Slashing Target to $7.30
Jefferies downgraded Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) from Buy to Hold on Friday, June 6, and dropped its price target from $28 to $7.30. The move follows sharp losses in the stock, down over 68% in the past six months, and rising uncertainty around an investigation tied to its Lugano subsidiary. The investigation involves Lugano's former CEO, accused of arranging unauthorized third-party funding and inflating inventory valuations. These issues led to a major overstatement of inventory and now cast doubt on the subsidiary's reported performance. bleakstar/ In response, Jefferies assigned zero value to Lugano in its sum-of-the-parts analysis following management's own guidance. Recovery is expected to be long and uncertain. With little clarity on how the situation will unfold, Jefferies has pulled back its rating and is waiting for more information before reassessing the stock's upside. While we acknowledge the potential of CODI as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
