Klarna Group plc shares fell 9.1% on Thursday, March 12, 2026. The stock reached an intraday low of $14.81 before closing the session at $14.9410. This decline reversed a four-day gaining streak that had previously pushed the share price to a $16.43 close.
The downturn followed the March 9 expiration of a post-IPO lock-up period. This event released a substantial volume of previously restricted shares for public trading.
