Manhattan Associates, Inc. (MANH) Investigation:
In a recent development, Manhattan Associates, Inc. (MANH) finds itself at the center of an investigation scrutinizing its public declarations regarding the business and growth prospects of its services business — a crucial component of the company’s revenue. This business encompasses solutions planning and implementation, consulting, customer training, and reimbursements from out-of-pocket expenses.
Historically, Manhattan Associates assured investors that the growth in services was tightly linked to the expansion of cloud sales and customer upgrade cycles. The company conveyed confidence that robust demand for its cloud solutions would drive services revenue growth, while downplaying uncertainties in the global macroeconomic environment.
However, on Jan. 28, 2025, the company disclosed disappointing Q4 2024 services revenue of $119.5 million, growing by a mere 0.3% compared to the year-ago quarter. This figure fell approximately $2 million short of the guidance provided in October 2024.
The company further explained that delays in professional services work and deferred deals contributed to the disappointing performance, predicting that services revenue would hit a low point in Q1 2025. Solid revenue growth in this sector, according to the company, would not resume until mid-year, with year-over-year growth projected to pick up thereafter.
Moreover, Manhattan Associates revealed emerging challenges in its services business, noting that around 10% of customers with ongoing implementations had scaled back their planned services work for the upcoming calendar and fiscal year.
Adding to investor concerns, the company announced that its FY 2025 total revenues would see modest growth of just 2% to 3%, while GAAP EPS was expected to decline by 10% to 13%.
In reaction to these announcements, the stock price of Manhattan Associates plunged approximately 24% on Jan. 29, 2025, wiping out over $4 billion of shareholder value.
The recent developments have prompted shareholder rights firm Hagens Berman to open an investigation.
“We’re investigating whether Manhattan Associates may have intentionally misled investors about the sustainability of its business model and revenue growth,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
