Compass Group Diversified Holdings, LLC (NYSE:CODI), a private equity firm based in Westport, Connecticut, is known for acquiring and managing a diverse portfolio of businesses. One of its significant acquisitions was Lugano Holdings, Inc. in 2021, valued at $256 million. CODI is set to release its quarterly earnings on July 2, 2025, with Wall Street estimating an EPS of $0.45 and projected revenue of $567.42 million.
Despite these projections, CODI faces legal challenges. Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has filed a class action lawsuit against the company, alleging securities fraud between February 24, 2022, and May 7, 2025. The lawsuit claims that CODI failed to disclose critical issues, including ineffective internal controls and undisclosed information about Lugano Holding, Inc. This has led to significant investor losses.
Further complicating matters, Berger Montague PC has also filed a lawsuit against CODI for similar reasons. This lawsuit targets investors who purchased CODI securities between May 1, 2024, and May 7, 2025. The deadline for investors to seek appointment as a lead plaintiff is July 8, 2025. The allegations include violations of accounting rules and industry practices by Lugano in fiscal 2024.
The legal actions follow CODI's disclosure on May 7, 2025, that its financial statements for fiscal 2024 should not be relied upon. This announcement came after an internal investigation into Lugano Holding, Inc., which identified irregularities in its financing, accounting, and inventory practices. These issues have raised concerns about CODI's financial health and transparency.
Financially, CODI has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 65.41, indicating high market expectations relative to its earnings. Its price-to-sales ratio is 0.21, and the enterprise value to sales ratio is 0.99. However, the enterprise value to operating cash flow ratio is negative at -32.34, suggesting potential cash flow concerns. CODI's debt-to-equity ratio is 1.37, showing its financial leverage, while its current ratio of 4.07 indicates strong liquidity.
