NEW YORK, NY – January 18, 2023 – Wolf Haldenstein Adler Freeman & Herz LLP announces that a federal securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM” or “the Company”) (NYSE: IBM) Investors who purchased the Company’s securities between January 18, 2018 and October 16, 2018, inclusive (the ”Class Period”).

All investors who purchased shares and incurred losses are advised to contact the firm immediately at classmember@whafh.com or (800) 575-0735 or (212) 545-4774.

If you have incurred losses, you may, no later than March 14, 2023, request that the Court appoint you lead plaintiff of the proposed class. Please contact Wolf Haldenstein to learn more about your rights.

According to the filed Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. IBM artificially inflated its Strategic Imperatives Revenue and growth, CAMSS (the sectors of “Cloud,” “Analytics,” “Mobile,” “Security,” and “Social”) revenue and growth, and other related business metrics through a scheme of wrongfully reclassifying revenues from non-strategic to strategic. The Company’s growth prospects in Strategic Imperatives were fueled by this reclassification scheme, not organic growth.

The firm has attorneys in various practice areas; and offices in New York, Chicago and San Diego. The reputation and expertise of this firm in shareholder and other class litigation has been repeatedly recognized by the courts, which have appointed it to major positions in complex securities multi-district and consolidated litigation.
