Globe Newswire 18-Dec-2024 8:00 PM
NEW YORK, Dec. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP reminds investors of the December 31, 2024, deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action filed on behalf of investors who acquired Evolv Technologies Holding, Inc. ("Evolv" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:EVLV) securities during the period from August 19, 2022, to October 30, 2024 ("the Class Period").
On October 25, 2024, Evolv announced that the Company's financial statements issued between the second quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2024 should not be relied upon due to material misstatements impacting revenue recognition and other previously reported metrics. The Company revealed that certain sales, including sales to one of its largest channel partners, were subject to extra-contractual terms and conditions not shared with the Company's accounting personnel and that certain Company personnel engaged in misconduct in connection with those transactions. The Company also announced that it has self-reported these issues to the Division of Enforcement of the Securities and Exchange Commission and was delaying filing its upcoming quarterly report for the third quarter of 2024. Following this news, the price of Evolv shares declined by $1.63 per share, or approximately 40%, from $4.10 per share on October 24, 2024, to close at $2.47 on October 25, 2024.
Then, on October 31, 2024, Evolv announced the termination of the Company's CEO, Peter George, effective immediately. The Company announced that Michael Ellenbogen, Evolv's Chief Innovation Officer will serve in an interim role until a successor is appointed. On this news, the price of Evolv shares declined by $0.19, or approximately 8%, from $2.34 per share on October 30, 2024, to close at $2.15 per share on October 31, 2024.
The lawsuit alleges that Evolv's financial statements prepared for the Class Period contained material misstatements relating to Evolv's revenue recognition and other reported metrics that are a function of revenue.
