GRAB’S ALLEGED MISCONDUCT
Grab develops delivery management, mobility, financial services, and enterprise software solutions. In particular, Grab operates a “super app” that functions as Southeast Asia’s largest ride-hailing and delivery service, similar to Uber.

On August 2, 2021, Grab announced its Q1 2021 results in a press release stating, in relevant part, “we are pleased with our progress toward becoming a publicly-traded company, which we expect to occur in Q4 2021,” and that “we continue to deliver strong growth, despite the ongoing impact of COVID-19.” Grab also indicated in the press release that the company “saw robust topline growth, even compared to the first quarter of 2020 that saw limited impact from COVID-19, and took strides towards profitability.”

During the Class Period, Grab touted that it had the region’s largest on-demand driver supply network, based on the total number of registered driver-partners in Southeast Asia in 2020, and its largest food delivery network, based on the number of registered food delivery merchant-partners in Southeast Asia in 2020.

Then, on March 3, 2022, Grab disclosed that its fourth quarter revenues had declined 44% from the previous quarter and reported a $1.1 billion loss for the quarter. During a conference call held in connection with the results, Anthony Tan, Grab’s Chief Executive Officer, attributed the poor financial results to “invest[ing] heavily” in driver incentives. During the conference call, Peter Oey, Grab’s Chief Financial Officer, stated that it would take one or two quarters “to get that equilibrium between drivers and riders, between supply and demand.” Following this news, Grab’s stock price fell $1.95, or 37.3%, to close at $3.28 per share on March 3, 2022.

WHAT CAN I DO?
Grab investors may, no later than May 16, 2022 seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class through Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP or other counsel, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP encourages Grab investors who have suffered significant losses to contact the firm directly to acquire more information.
