CASE DETAILS: According to the Complaint, Capricor and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On July 27, 2026, pre-market, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) published briefing documents ahead of its July 29 advisory committee meeting to review the Biologics License Application (“BLA”) for the Company’s lead product candidate, Deramiocel, finding that the Company made changes to the pre-specified statistical analysis plan (“SAP”) and that the final version “was not submitted to FDA for review prior to BLA submission and was not discussed and consequently not agreed upon.” Importantly, the final SAP was finalized just one day before the data was unblinded. The FDA disagreed with the changes made to the SAP, explaining that converting raw change to percent change and back again added unnecessary complexity and undermined accuracy, without scientific justification for doing so. As a result, the FDA stated that it “considers [Capricor’s] analyses based on the post-study SAP versions to be post-hoc and exploratory.” According to the briefing documents, the benefit-risk profile for deramiocel looked unfavorable given the lack of evidence supporting its effectiveness.

On this news, Capricor’s stock fell $12.70, or 64%, to close at $7.00 per share on July 27, 2026, on unusually heavy trading volume

The case is Nkamga v. Capricor Therapeutics, Inc., et al., No. 3:26-cv-04385.

WHAT TO DO? If you invested in Capricor and suffered a loss during the relevant time frame, you have until September 28, 2026 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff; however, your ability to share in any recovery does not require that you serve as a lead plaintiff.

CASE DETAILS: According to the Complaint, Avis and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

According to the complaint, Defendants Pentwater and Halbower engaged in a scheme to manipulate the market for Avis securities. Pentwater, as one of Avis’s largest shareholders — holding an approximate 51% total economic interest in the Company through stock and cash-settled swaps as of March 2026 — allegedly leveraged this position by aggressively purchasing Avis stock during the Class Period. This buying activity triggered unusual volatility and a short squeeze in Avis securities, meaning a rapid surge in the stock price as short sellers bought back shares to cover their losses, which in turn fueled further price increases. The result, according to the complaint, was a significant increase in the value of Pentwater’s Avis holdings. Avis’s stock price reached a staggering high of $765.94 per share during intraday trading on April 21, an increase of approximately 419% over its $147.52 opening price on April 1, before closing at $713.97 per share. Then, over the following trading sessions, Avis’s share price collapsed by 74.51%, closing at $182.005 per share on April 28, 2026.

The case is Hakimian v. Pentwater Capital Management LP, et al., No. 26-cv-02275.

WHAT TO DO? If you invested in Avis and suffered a loss during the relevant time frame, you have until September 29, 2026 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff; however, your ability to share in any recovery does not require that you serve as a lead plaintiff.

CLASS DEFINITION: The lawsuit seeks to recover losses on behalf of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Aevex’s publicly traded Class A common stock between April 17, 2026 and June 4, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”) and/or pursuant or traceable to the registration statement and prospectus (the “IPO Offering Documents”) issued in connection with Aevex’s April 17, 2026 initial public offering (“IPO”).

for more information

CASE DETAILS: According to the Complaint, Aevex and certain of its executives are charged with concealing a pre-arranged plan between Madison, which owned 100% of AEVEX’s common stock, and the Underwriter Defendants to prematurely override the commitment requiring a 180-day lock-up after the IPO to prevent Madison from selling its shares.

Specifically, the lawsuit alleges that AEVEX represented that a 180-day “lock-up” would prevent Madison from selling its Class A common stock, or from converting or exchanging its Class B shares or LLC Units into Class A common stock for public sale, until at least October 13, 2026. In truth, the Company allegedly concealed a pre-arranged plan between Madison and the Underwriter Defendants to abrogate that commitment early and clear the way for an SPO shortly after the IPO — one through which Madison would reap over $200 million and the Underwriter Defendants would share in a further $8-plus million in fees.

The case is Rosenberg v. Aevex Corp., No. 26-cv-04779.

WHAT TO DO? If you invested in Gemini and suffered a loss during the relevant time frame, you have until October 20, 2026 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff; however, your ability to share in any recovery does not require that you serve as a lead plaintiff.

Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces A Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Taboola.com Ltd. (TBLA)

NEW YORK, Aug. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Taboola.com Ltd. (“Taboola” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: TBLA) securities between May 6, 2026 and August 4, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

The Complaint alleges that Taboola operates a platform that partners with websites, devices, and mobile apps to recommend editorial content and advertisements on the open web and asserts that Taboola works by placing ads on publisher sites, mobile apps, and devices, collectively referred to as digital properties.

The Complaint further alleges that on August 5, 2026, before the market opened, Taboola reported second quarter 2026 earnings, including revenue of $476.8 million, falling short of previously issued second quarter guidance of $492-$505 million. The Complaint also alleges that the Company also cut its previously issued full year 2026 guidance, reducing expected revenue by $91 million at the midpoint to $1,930-$1,956 million and further cut expected gross profit $10 million at the midpoint to $605-$615 million.
        
The Complaint alleges that Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. The Complaint further alleges that Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) the Company was seeing an increase in low-quality publishers; (2) as a result, the Company would need to take an aggressive approach to exiting these low-quality publisher relationships, impacting earnings; (3) as a result, the value of the Company’s publisher relationships was overstated; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On August 5, 2026, the Complaint alleges that before the market opened, Taboola held an earnings call, during which the Company’s Chief Financial Officer Stephen Walker said that “[r]evenue wasbelow our guidance this quarter” in part because the Company took “a more aggressive approachin the second quarter by exiting publisher relationships that did not meet our standards foradvertiser success.” The Complaint also alleges that Company’s Chief Executive Officer Adam Singolda further said that the quarter experienced headwinds due to the “decision to remove low-quality publishers that werenot delivering value for advertisers.”

The Complaint further alleges that on this news, Taboola’s share price fell $1.45 or 27.41%, to close at $3.84 on August 5, 2026, on unusually heavy trading volume, and that, as a result, Plaintiff and other Class members have suffered significant losses and damages.

Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of TBLA should contact the Firm prior to the October 20, 2026 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].

We remain committed to delivering shareholder value, returning a total of US$358.8 million year-to-date through August 21, 2026, comprising US$142.4 million in dividends and US$216.4 million in share repurchases.

Social Entertainment revenues grew 7.4% year over year, with live streaming revenue up 7.3% year over year, and core live streaming paying users and ARPPU both improving. BIGO Ads revenues grew 53.1% year over year to US$133.7 million, with our third-party BIGO Audience Network sustaining strong growth of 74.1% year over year. Shopline revenues reached US$34.4 million, up 28.6% year over year, with growth accelerating from the first quarter on continued strength from cross-border merchants. For the full year of 2026, we remain confident in delivering solid revenue growth across the Group. On the profitability front, supported by a better-than-expected operational performance in the first half of the year and enhanced operating leverage from improved efficiency across our business segments, we expect the Group’s full-year 2026 non-GAAP operating income to achieve approximately 20% year-over-year growth.

AI remains the technology foundation of our long-term strategy, driving measurable improvements across our streamer ecosystem, content distribution, advertising models, and merchant operations on Shopline. Together, these efforts reinforce the closed-loop system across our three business segments, and we remain confident this multi-engine strategy will continue to drive long-term value for JOYY and our shareholders.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). JOYY uses non-GAAP operating (loss) income, non-GAAP operating income (loss) margin, non-GAAP EBITDA, non-GAAP EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest and common shareholders of JOYY, non-GAAP net income (loss) margin attributable to controlling interest and common shareholders of JOYY, and basic and diluted non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations per ADS, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures adjusted from the most comparable U.S. GAAP results. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) is operating income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, and gain (loss) on deconsolidation and disposal of subsidiaries and business. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) margin is non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of net revenues. Non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations is net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, gain (loss) on deconsolidation and disposal of subsidiaries and business, gain (loss) on disposal and deemed disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments (referring to share of income (loss) from equity method investments resulting from non-recurring or non-cash items of the equity method investments), interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, and income tax effects of the above non-GAAP reconciling items. Non-GAAP EBITDA is non-GAAP operating income (loss) added back depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions), and non-GAAP EBITDA margin is non-GAAP EBITDA as a percentage of net revenues. Non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest and common shareholders of JOYY is net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest of JOYY excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, gain (loss) on deconsolidation and disposal of subsidiaries and business, gain (loss) on disposal and deemed disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, income tax effects of the above non-GAAP reconciling items and adjustments for non-GAAP reconciling items for the net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to non-controlling interest shareholders. Non-GAAP net income (loss) margin is non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest and common shareholders of JOYY as a percentage of net revenues. Non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest and common shareholders of JOYY is net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment of goodwill and investments, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, gain (loss) on deconsolidation and disposal of subsidiaries and business, gain (loss) on disposal and deemed disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, accretion, cumulative dividend and deemed dividend to subsidiaries’ preferred shareholders, gain on repurchase of redeemable convertible preferred shares of a subsidiary and income tax effects of above non-GAAP reconciling items and adjustments for non-GAAP reconciling items for the net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to non-controlling interest shareholders. Basic and diluted non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations per ADS is non-GAAP net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders of JOYY divided by weighted average number of ADS used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per ADS. The Company believes that separate analysis and exclusion of the non-cash impact of above reconciling items adds clarity to the constituent parts of its performance. The Company reviews these non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP financial measures to obtain a better understanding of its operating performance. It uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures is useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the non-cash effect of (i) share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets from business acquisitions, and interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring expenses in its business, (ii) impairment of goodwill and investments, gain (loss) on deconsolidation and disposal of subsidiaries and business, gain (loss) on disposal and deemed disposal of investments, gain (loss) on fair value change of investments, reconciling items on the share of equity method investments, accretion, cumulative dividend and deemed dividend to subsidiaries’ preferred shareholders and gain on repurchase of redeemable convertible preferred shares of a subsidiary which may not be recurring in its business, and (iii) income tax expenses and non-GAAP adjustments for net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to non-controlling interest shareholders, which are affected by the above non-GAAP reconciling items. However, the use of non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not include all items that impact the Company’s net income (loss) for the period. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not measured in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similar titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “JOYY Inc. Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” near the end of this press release.

The suit centers on UWM’s disclosures about its hedging strategy in connection with its attempt to acquire Two Harbors.

On December 17, 2025, mortgage lender UWM announced that it and mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”) company Two Harbors entered into a merger agreement pursuant to which UWM would acquire Two Harbors for about $1.3 billion in UWM stock. Two Harbors was free to receive proposals superior to UWM’s.

In connection with the proposed acquisition, UWM entered into significant hedging transactions against Two Harbors’ MSR portfolio whose value typically and rapidly changes based on interest rates and homeowner refinancing speeds.

The complaint alleges that UWM did not disclose that it over-hedged in connection with its attempt to take over Two Harbors. The danger to this is that if an acquisition falls through the massive hedge left behind can turn into a speculative gamble.

Over four months ago, on March 27, 2026, Two Harbors announced that it entered a definitive merger agreement with CrossCountry Mortgage in a cash transaction and that it terminated its previous deal with UWM and would pay UWM the termination fee.

Although UWM had disclosed certain information about having hedged the transaction before March 27, investors did not learn the truth of the company’s exposure until August 6, 2026. That day UWM reported three important things.

First, the company reported a massive $451 million net loss and roughly a $603 million hedging loss. Management revealed, apparently for the first time, that “we were over-hedged” and “obviously, the Two Harbors transaction went away.”

Second, UWM disclosed that its total equity sequentially plunged by about $615 million, or a whopping 38%.

On top of that and third, UWM told shareholders in essence that, as a result of the foregoing, it entered into a massively dilutive recapitalization plan.

The market swiftly reacted, sending the price of UWM shares sharply lower that day. Between December 17, 2025, the day of the Two Harbors acquisition announcement, and August 6, 2026, the price Of UWM shares has declined by about $3.65 or 75%.

Hagens Berman’s Investigation

“We’re focused on UWM’s explanations for why it refrained from unwinding its hedges months ago and why management seemingly went virtually silent on the naked hedging risks until recently,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm’s investigation.
