Event Summary

Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (KSF) reminds investors of the August 10, 2026 deadline to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against Zillow, Inc. The lawsuit, Breidert v. Zillow, Inc., et al., is pending in the United States — United States District Court for the Western District of Washington. It alleges that Zillow and certain executives failed to disclose material information during the Class Period (February 11, 2025 to May 7, 2026), including that Zillow's agreement with Redfin was actually an acquisition, not a partnership, and that Zillow faced heightened antitrust regulatory risks. The lawsuit claims investors suffered damages when the true details emerged.
