The complaint filed by Robbins LLP centers on claims that Qfin executives repeatedly characterized their business as resilient and stable, even as new PRC regulatory guidance began to weigh on performance. Investors allege that these assurances masked the true scope of the company's struggles, creating a distorted picture of its financial health prior to the disclosure of second-quarter results.
The situation reached a breaking point on August 25, 2026, when Qfin reported a 31.6% year-over-year decline in net revenue and a 76.8% plunge in net income. The firm cited a $500 million tax expense and broader liquidity shocks within the Chinese consumer credit market as primary drivers. In response to the earnings report and pessimistic forward guidance, Qfin’s American depositary share price dropped 18.91% the following day, closing at $9.35.
