NEW YORK & NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq., a partner at the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (“KSF”), announces that KSF has commenced an investigation into Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (“the Company”) (NYSE: CMG).

Beginning in the spring of 2024, news reports highlighted grievances lodged by Chipotle customers regarding the Company’s inconsistent or inadequate portion size. In response, the Company announced efforts to increase and standardize portion sizes at its more than 3,600 restaurants. However, the Company subsequently disclosed that, as a result of those efforts, it expected cost of sales to increase to “just below 31%” in the third quarter of 2024.

Thereafter, the Company and certain of its executives were sued in a securities class action lawsuit, charging them with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period in violation of federal securities laws, which remains ongoing.

KSF’s investigation is focusing on whether Chipotle’s officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties to its shareholders or otherwise violated state or federal laws.
