Comparable settlements $200M–$688M median $237.50M · n=10 Merck & Co. Inc. a $688M · Toyota Industries $436M · Toyota Industries $299.50M Per member (realized): ~$2,500 median · $2,500–$2,500 (n=1) Comparable verdict: Papaya $420M · VPX, Inc. $293M Key precedent: Citizens of Humanity v. Donboli — nearest analog (apparel labeling claim), shows courts scrutinize probable cause/merit of such suits closely. Main risk: Class certification denial due to individualized reliance/communication issues, as in Guthrie v. Transamerica. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $250K–$50M Comparable set lacks true apparel/false-advertising precedent; settlement and per-member benchmarks drawn from unrelated large-scale cases, so figures are rough and low-confidence. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 9 verdicts | Filing | False Advertising | S.D.N.Y. | 2026-10-06 | $200M–$688M comparable settlements |
