Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that Fortinet, Inc. (FTNT) Misrepresented the Impact of Unit Upgrades of FortiGate Firewalls
Robbins LLP informs stockholders that a class action was filed on behalf of persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Fortinet, Inc. (NASDAQ: FTNT) common stock between November 8, 2024 and August 6, 2025. Fortinet is a cyber security company.
The Allegations:
According to the complaint, defendants failed to disclose that: (i) it was hard to predict the total number of FortiGates requiring an upgrade; (ii) customers had โexcess [firewall] capacity from [purchasing firewalls in] prior yearsโ and therefore did not need to upgrade; and (iii) the refresh could not have had โmuch business impactโ as it consisted of only a โsmall percentageโ of the Companyโs business because the products were โ12 to 15 yearsโ old and had been sold at a time when Fortinetโs business was 5-10 times smaller, meaning that the total number of FortiGates eligible for an upgrade was inherently limited.
When the truth was revealed, the price of Fortinet common stock fell over 22%, from $96.58 per share on August 6, 2025, to $75.30 per share on August 7, 2025.
