Item 3. Legal Proceedings
As previously disclosed in Target's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 29, 2023, on March 29, 2023, Target Corporation and certain of its officers were named as defendants in a purported federal securities law class action filed in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on December 15, 2023, which alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 relating to certain prior disclosures of Target about its business model, strategy, and inventory. The plaintiff seeks to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Target common stock between November 17, 2021 and May 17, 2022. The plaintiff seeks damages and other relief, including attorneys’ fees, based on allegations that the defendants misled investors about Target’s business model, strategy, and inventory and that such conduct affected the value of Target common stock. Target intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
