CASE BACKGROUND
In May 2018, investor and short-seller, Quintessential Capital Management (QCM) issued a report which said that the company overstated the number of points of sales it operated worldwide. QCM also said it was concerned over Folli’s finances. Following that report, shares of Folli Follie dropped by 30%.
A subsequent audit of Folli Follie revealed approximately $1.3b missing from its finances. The Hellenic Investors’ Association further noted that the audit entailed possible mismanagement and irregularities dating back to 2001. These irregularities include 16-year long misconduct by not only the owners, but by the auditors and banks involved in the finances of Folli Follie as well.
Kyros Law Offices is currently pursuing claims against Folli Follie for allegedly misleading investors about the company’s financial state.
DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY & COSTS

Your claim value should equal:
- What you paid for the securities, less what you received upon sale after May 3, 2018, or
- Your full investment if you held through May 25, 2018, when the company was delisted, given its subsequent liquidation proceedings.
