INVESTOR DEADLINE: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Announces that Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (RCAT) Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead Investor Class Action Lawsuit
SAN DIEGO, June 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: RCAT) securities between March 18, 2022 and January 15, 2025, inclusive (the 'Class Period'), have until Tuesday, July 22, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Red Cat class action lawsuit. Captioned Olsen v. Red Cat Holdings, Inc. , No. 25-cv-05427 (D.N.J.), the Red Cat class action lawsuit charges Red Cat as well as certain of Red Cat's top current and former executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Red Cat class action lawsuit, please provide your information here: You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected]. CASE ALLEGATIONS: Red Cat, together with its subsidiaries, provides products and solutions to drone industry. Red Cat's products include, among others, the 'Teal 2' drone, a small, unmanned aircraft system designed to purportedly 'Dominate the Night' during nighttime military operations. The Red Cat class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Red Cat's Salt Lake City facility's production capacity, and defendants' progress in developing the same, was overstated; and (ii) the overall value of Red Cat's Short Range Reconnaissance Program of Record Tranche 2 contract (the 'SRR Contract') was overstated. The Red Cat class action lawsuit further alleges that on July 27, 2023, Red Cat revealed that its Salt Lake City facility could only currently produce 100 drones per month, the facility was still being built, refined, and expanded, and that construction of the facility was only 'substantially completed' and potentially could reach a production capacity of 1,000 drones per month over the next 2 to 3 years, but only with additional capital investments and manufacturing efficiencies realized. On this news, the price of Red Cat stock fell nearly 9%, according to the complaint. Then, on September 23, 2024, the Red Cat class action lawsuit further alleges that Red Cat announced its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, reporting losses per share of $0.17, missing consensus estimates by $0.09, and revenue of $2.8 million, missing consensus estimates by $1.07 million. According to the complaint, Red Cat further disclosed that Red Cat had spent 'the past four months . . . retooling [the Salt Lake City facility] and preparing for high volume production,' while admitting that a 'pause in manufacturing of Teal 2 and building Army prototypes impacted Teal 2 sales' because, among other things, Red Cat 'couldn't produce and sell Teal 2 units while retooling [its] factory.' The Red Cat class action lawsuit alleges that on this news, the price of Red Cat stock fell more than 25%. Finally, the Red Cat class action lawsuit further alleges that on January 16, 2025, Kerrisdale Capital published a report alleging that '[t]he SRR contract that Red Cat won in November and preemptively announced without the Army's permission is much smaller and less favorable than management as intimated,' and that '[i]t's highly implausible that a mass-production facility for manufacturing drones has been built at any point in the last two years for less than $1 million.' On this news, the price of Red Cat stock fell more than 21% over two trading sessions, according to the complaint. THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Red Cat securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Red Cat class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Red Cat class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Red Cat class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Red Cat class action lawsuit.

IOVA FRAUD ALERT: Iovance Biotherapeutics Investors are Reminded of Ongoing Securities Fraud Class Action — Contact BFA Law by July 14 Legal Deadline (NASDAQ:IOVA)
NEW YORK, June 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces that a lawsuit has been filed against Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: IOVA) and certain of the Company's senior executives for potential violations of the federal securities laws. If you invested in Iovance you are encouraged to obtain additional information by visiting Investors have until July 14, 2025, to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors who purchased Iovance securities. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and is captioned Sundaram v. Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc., et al. , No. 25-cv-04177. Why was Iovance Sued for Securities Fraud? Iovance is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of treatments for melanoma and other solid tumor cancers. The Company commercially launched its key melanoma treatment Amtagvi in February 2024. Iovance administers Amtagvi at the Company's authorized treatment centers ('ATCs'). As alleged, Iovance repeatedly touted its ATCs as a driver of demand for Amtagvi. In truth, Iovance's ATCs were experiencing long timelines to begin treating patients with Amtagvi, and ineffective patient identification and patient selection for treatment was causing high patient drop-offs at the ATCs. The Stock Declines as the Truth is Revealed On May 8, 2025, Iovance reported disappointing financial results for 1Q25 and announced it was 'revising full-year 2025 revenue guidance.' The Company blamed 'recent launch dynamics,' including slow 'treatment timelines for new ATCs' and 'the variable pace at which ATCs began treating patients,' which 'differs from center to center.' Iovance also blamed the poor results on high 'patient drop-off' due to inadequate 'patient selection' for treatment. On this news, the price of Iovance stock declined more than 44%, from $3.17 per share on May 8, 2025, to $1.75 per share on May 9, 2025. Click here if you suffered losses: What Can You Do? If you invested in Iovance you may have legal options and are encouraged to submit your information to the firm. All representation is on a contingency fee basis, there is no cost to you. Shareholders are not responsible for any court costs or expenses of litigation. The firm will seek court approval for any potential fees and expenses.

FTRE FRAUD ALERT: Fortrea Holdings Inc. Investors are Reminded of Ongoing Securities Fraud Class Action — Contact BFA Law by August 1 Legal Deadline (NASDAQ:FTRE)
NEW YORK, June 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces that a lawsuit has been filed against Fortrea Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: FTRE) and certain of the Company's senior executives for potential violations of the federal securities laws. If you invested in Fortrea you are encouraged to obtain additional information by visiting Investors have until August 1, 2025, to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors who purchased Fortrea securities. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and is captioned Deslande v. Fortrea Holdings Inc., et al. , No. 1:25-cv-04630. Why was Fortrea Sued for Securities Fraud? Fortrea is a global contract research organization that provides biopharmaceutical product and medical device development solutions. In June 2023, Fortrea was spun off into a standalone, publicly traded company by Labcorp Holdings Inc. ('Labcorp'). In connection with the spin-off, Fortrea entered into several transition services agreements (the 'TSAs'), pursuant to which it agreed to pay Labcorp for certain transitional services over a set period. As alleged, Fortrea discussed the significant cost savings and margin improvements that would result from exiting the TSAs. In truth, Fortrea overstated the cost savings and margin improvement it would achieve by exiting the TSAs, as well as the amount of revenue it would generate from pre-spin projects. The Stock Declines as the Truth is Revealed On September 25, 2024, investment bank Jefferies published a report stating that the cost savings Fortrea would achieve from exiting the TSAs were '[n]ot as [m]aterial as [o]ne [m]ight [t]hink.' On this news, the price of Fortrea stock declined $2.73 per share, or over 12%, from a closing price of $22.21 per share on September 24, 2024, to $19.48 per share on September 25, 2024. Then, on March 3, 2025, Fortrea announced disappointing Q4 and full year 2024 financial results, revealing that the company's pre-spin projects 'have less revenue and less profitability than expected for 2025' and that 'post-spin work is not coming on fast enough to offset the pre-spin contract economics.' On this news, the price of Fortrea stock declined $3.47 per share, or over 25%, from a closing price of $13.85 per share on February 28, 2025, to $10.38 per share on March 3, 2025, the next trading day.
