What is the Evolv Technology Lawsuit Investigation About?
On Friday, October 25, 2024, Evolv announced that certain previously issued financial statements from 2022-2024 should no longer be relied upon, and the company will delay the filing of its Quarterly Report for the period ended September 30, 2024.
This determination is a result of an investigation of the company’s sales practices by an ad hoc committee of independent directors of Evolv Technology’s Board of Directors, according to the company. The committee identified that certain terms and conditions associated with some sales were not shared with the company’s accounting personnel, and that “certain Company personnel engaged in misconduct in connection with those transactions.” As a result, the committee determined that the accounting for certain sales transactions was inaccurate, and estimated that on a net basis, “the sales transactions at issue have resulted in premature or incorrect revenue recognition of approximately $4 million to $6 million” through June 30, 2024. The company admitted that it “expects to report one or more additional material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.”
Following this news, shares of Evolv Technology plummeted over 40% in intraday trading on Friday, October 25, 2024, causing significant harm to investors.
