NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Mar 1, 2014) - Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP (www.kaplanfox.com) has filed a class action suit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Coty Inc. ("Coty" or the "Company") (NYSE: COTY) (CUSIP:222070203).

A copy of the complaint is available through Kaplan Fox's website by clicking here.

The complaint is brought on behalf of persons and/or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of Coty pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form S-1/A on May 28, 2013, and prospectus filed with the SEC on Form 424(b)(4) on June 13, 2013 ("Prospectus"), (collectively the "Registration Statement"), in the Company's initial public offering ("IPO") of over 57 million shares of common stock at a price of $17.50 per share (the "Class").

The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 because the Registration Statement contained untrue statements of material facts or omitted to state material facts necessary to make the statements made not misleading, and was not prepared in accordance with the applicable SEC rules and regulations governing its preparation.

If you are a member of the proposed Class, you may move the court no later than April 14, 2014 to serve as a lead plaintiff for the purported class. You need not seek to become a lead plaintiff in order to share in any possible recovery.
