The securities class action alleges that, throughout the Class Period, PLDT and certain of its senior executives and directors made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose: (1) that the Company massively overran its capital expenditure budget between 2019 and 2022; and (2) that PLDT lacked adequate internal controls to prevent such budget overruns.

Investors began to learn of defendants’ fraud on December 16, 2022, when PLDT disclosed that its capital expenditures between 2019 and 2022 exceeded its budget by $866 million—an amount equivalent to PLDT’s net income for 2020 and 2021 combined. Following this announcement, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission reportedly commenced an inquiry into the matter. On this news, the price of PLDT ADS fell $6.35 per share, or 23.69%, to close at $20.46 on the following trading day, December 19, 2022 on elevated trading volume.
