According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose adverse information regarding Floor & Decor's business and prospects. Specifically, defendants knew, but failed to disclose, that the Company had already begun to experience declining sales trends that would ultimately result in the reduction of its fiscal 2018 sales and adjusted earnings per share guidance, which had been increased as recently as May 2018.

On August 2, 2018, before the market opened, Floor & Decor announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2018. The second quarter results were in sharp contrast to the assurances made on May 3, 2018 about the strength of the Company's business and its continuing growth trajectory for the remainder of 2018. As a result of these disclosures and the significant reduction in the Company's fiscal year 2018 sales and earnings per share guidance, Floor & Decor's stock price declined more than 21%, from a close of $47.71 per share on August 1, 2018 to a close of $37.50 per share on August 3, 2018.
