About the lawsuit

Lordstown and some of its executives are accused of failing to disclose material information during the classroom, in violation of federal securities laws.

On March 12, 2021, prior to launch, Hindenburg Research reported that the company had “no revenue and no salable product” and “had misled investors about both its demand and manufacturing capabilities.” The report also found that the company’s “assignments are largely fictitious and act as a prop to raise capital and give legitimacy,” and that a former employee “explained how the company is experiencing delays and making” drastic “design changes [Lordstown] an estimated 3-4 years away from production ”instead of being“ on the right track ”for a production start in September 2021.

Then, on March 17, 2021, post-market, the company announced during a earnings call that it had received a request from the US Securities and Exchange Commission, even though that disclosure was not included on Form 8-K in the fourth quarter and fully announced financial results for 2020, filed after the close of trading on the same day.

On the news, Lordstown’s stocks plummeted.

The case is Rico v Lordstown Motors Corp. et al., 21-cv-00616.
