The lawsuit questions the timeliness of F5's disclosure to investors and the incident's material impact. Following the October 15 disclosure, F5 shares fell 13.9%, and further declined 7.8% after the company guided for significantly reduced 2026 revenue growth of 0-4% compared to 10% in 2025, citing potential customer delays related to the security incident.
