Plaintiffs’ Firms Court Gartner Investors to Lead Securities Class Action Ahead of May 18 Deadline

Overview

• Following Monday’s notices from Schall, DJS, and Levi & Korsinsky, Gartner shareholders were urged to seek lead-plaintiff status by May 18, 2026.
• Filings say Gartner misled investors about easing seasonality and the growth path of its contract value, covering purchases from February 4, 2025 through February 2, 2026.
• Plaintiffs point to two sharp stock drops they call corrective disclosures, a 27.55% fall on August 5, 2025 and a 20.87% decline on February 3, 2026.
• Plaintiffs describe contract value as the annualized worth of active research subscriptions and say it drives most of Gartner’s revenue and guides expectations for the next year.
• The case is in an early stage with no class certified, the allegations have not been proven, and investors are not represented by counsel unless and until a class is certified.
