Yahoo Class-Action Suits Set for Settlement

Altaba tells SEC it will incur $47 million to settle consumer litigation for massive Yahoo data breaches.

Altaba, the holding company that retains whats left of the company in the wake of Verizons purchase of Yahoo, this week said in a filing with the US Securities Exchange Commission that it has reached an agreement in principle to settle the lawsuits.
We have also received final court approval of the securities class action settlement, and we have negotiated an agreement to settle the shareholder derivative litigation (subject to court approval).
