Levi & Korsinsky Announces 2U Class Action Investigation; TWOU Lawsuit

Levi & Korsinsky, LLP

September 24, 2019

Levi & Korsinsky, LLP announces that a TWOU class action lawsuit has been commenced on behalf of investors who purchased 2U, Inc. (TWOU) securities between February 26, 2018 and July 30, 2019. For more on the 2U Class Action please contact us today.

According to the 2U lawsuit, throughout the Class Period defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) 2U’s business model was fundamentally flawed because the Company’s costs were growing disproportionately as it grew in size and complexity; (2) 2U could not take advantage of the promised economies of scale because its costs to attract each marginal student were actually increasing, not decreasing, as represented; (3) 2U was facing heightened competitive headwinds as alternative offerings flooded the marketplace and universities developed online courses in-house; (4) 2U’s growth rate in student enrollment was decelerating and was poised to decline as the Company reached market saturation; (5) 2U’s growth strategy was unsustainable, as the Company faced accelerating costs and had insufficient capital to achieve positive cash flows, improve margins or continue its revenue growth; and (6) as a result of (1)-(5), above, Defendants lacked any reasonable basis to issue 2U’s projections and financial forecasts.
