What is this Case About: DitigalOcean Holdings, Inc. (DOCN) Lacked Effective Controls Over the Company's Accounting for Income Taxes

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants failed to disclose to investors that defendants lacked the skills and experience to assess complicated tax matters and therefore did not design or maintain effective controls over the Company’s accounting for income taxes, resulting in an overstatement of income tax expense in the quarter of approximately $18 million. As a result, defendants’ financial statements during the class period were inaccurate and materially misleading and would need to be restated.
