Harrisburg, PA based Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. operates as a retailer of brand name merchandise. Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. reported that its Total Revenue rose from over $1.07 billion for 12 months period that ended on February 3, 2018 to over $1.24 billion for the 12 months period that ended on February 2, 2019, and that its Net Income increased from $127.59 million to $135.01 million over those respective time periods.

On August 28, 2019, Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc announced that its comparable-store sales had fallen 1.7%, missing its guidance of positive 1% to 2%. On a conference call later that Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc's CEO Mark Butler stated that comparable-store sales had fallen primarily because (i) new stores had cannibalized sales from stores in existing markets at a higher than historical rate, and (ii) the Company had underestimated the demand of initial inventory investment and replenishment for the new stores. Shares of Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: OLLI) declined from $54.31 per share on September 3, 2019.

According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of Ollie’s Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: OLLI) common shares between June 6, 2019 and August 28, 2019, that the defendants violated Federal Securities Laws.

More specifically, the plaintiff claims that between June 6, 2019 and August 28, 2019, the Defendants failed to disclose to investors that the Company suffered a supply chain issue that impacted the initial inventory available at new stores, that, as a result, the Company lacked sufficient inventory to meet demand at certain store locations, that, as a result, the Company’s comparable store sales were likely to decrease quarter-over-quarter, and that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
