In a dramatic turn of events, WPP plc, a global advertising giant, finds itself embroiled in a class action lawsuit, accused of misleading its shareholders. The lawsuit, filed against WPP, aims to recover losses for investors affected by alleged securities fraud between February 27, 2025, and July 8, 2025. The core of the complaint is that WPP allegedly painted an overly optimistic picture to investors while concealing critical issues within its media division, GroupM. The company reportedly struggled to navigate macroeconomic challenges, leading to a significant loss of market share to competitors.

The situation took a downturn on July 9, 2025, when WPP released a trading update for the first half of the year, revealing a decline in performance attributed to macroeconomic uncertainties and weaker-than-expected new business. This revelation caused WPP’s stock to plummet by 18.1%, from $35.82 to $29.34 per share, in just one day.
