Global advertising company WPP is facing a class-action lawsuit in the United States for allegedly misleading investors about its financial performance and business growth.
The case has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. It covers investors who bought WPP shares between February 27, 2025, and July 8, 2025.
According to the lawsuit, WPP’s leadership made overly positive statements about the company’s outlook, client growth, and performance of its media division. The complaint alleges that these claims were “false and misleading,” which led to WPP’s share prices being higher than they should have been.
Investors claim they were misled into buying shares at inflated prices and are now seeking compensation for their losses. WPP has not yet issued an official statement or comment on the lawsuit.
