CrowdStrike stock slips after judge tosses outage lawsuit as CRWD pushes deeper into browser security
CrowdStrike shares fell 1.7% to $459.98 Wednesday after a U.S. judge dismissed a shareholder fraud lawsuit tied to the company’s July 2024 outage. The judge ruled investors failed to show CrowdStrike misled them about software testing. The New York State Common Retirement Fund said it is reviewing the decision. CrowdStrike also announced a deal to acquire Seraphic Security, with closing expected in its first fiscal quarter of 2027.
