Event Summary

Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, is reminding purchasers of Futu Limited (Nasdaq: FUTU) securities between May 24, 2023 and May 27, 2026 of the August 25, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline in a securities fraud class action lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that Futu made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that it was not in compliance with the requirements of the China — China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC), including conducting securities, public fund sales, and futures business in mainland China without the requisite licenses or approval. As a result, Futu was reasonably likely to face regulatory penalties, including disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, and its financial results were overstated. When the true details entered the market, investors suffered damages. The class action has already been filed, and investors who wish to serve as lead plaintiff must move the court by August 25, 2026.
