From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings including claims, suits, inquiries, and investigations arising from activities in the normal course of business. We also have received and may in the future receive claims asserting we are or may be infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating third-party intellectual property rights. Given the unpredictable nature of litigation, an unfavorable resolution of one or more such matters could in the future materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations in a particular period; however, based on the information known by us as of the date of this filing, any such amount is either not material or it is not possible to provide an estimated amount of any such potential loss. Defending any legal proceeding is costly and can impose a significant burden on management and employees. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
On April 17, 2025, a putative securities class action complaint, captioned Fortune v. Ibotta, Inc., et al., No. 25-cv-01213-NYW, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against the Company, certain of our current and former officers and directors, and the underwriters of our initial public offering. On May 21, 2025, a second putative securities class action complaint, captioned Valentine v. Ibotta, Inc., et al., No. 25-cv-01615-NYW, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado against the same defendants. On July 31, 2025, the court consolidated the two cases and appointed a lead plaintiff, purported Ibotta shareholder Mark Tcherkezian, in the consolidated action. On October 15, 2025, lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint against the same defendants alleging claims under Securities Act §§ 11, 12(a), and 15, Exchange Act §§ 10(b), 20(a), and 20A, and SEC Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. On August 3, 2026, the Court granted Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint in full, without prejudice. Plaintiff may file a motion by August 31, 2026, requesting leave to file a second amended complaint. We are unable to estimate a range of loss, if any, that could result were there to be an adverse final outcome in this action. If an unfavorable outcome were to occur, it is possible that the impact could be material to our results of operations in the period(s) in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable.
