Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP has reminded investors of Charter Communications, Inc. about the upcoming deadline to become a lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that Charter and its executives violated federal securities laws by making misleading statements and failing to disclose significant impacts on their business. Specifically, the end of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) reportedly led to sustained declines in internet customers and revenue, which the company did not adequately manage or disclose. The lawsuit claims that Charter's optimistic statements about its operations and growth were misleading.
