RYDE Shareholder Alert: Ryde Group Ltd Securities Class Action Lawsuit – Investors With Losses May Contact SueWallSt

A securities class action names Ryde Group Ltd’s chief executive, chief financial officer, and four directors as control persons, alleging they omitted the manipulation risk built into RYDE’s low-float NYSE listing before the share price collapsed on September 11, 2024.

NEW YORK, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SueWallSt encourages investors who suffered losses in Ryde Group Ltd (NYSE: RYDE) to contact the firm. Those who purchased RYDE securities between March 6, 2024 and September 11, 2024 may be entitled to recover damages. Find out if you may be eligible to recover losses. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (888) SueWallSt.

RYDE peaked at $22.49 before reportedly faltering to only $5.50 per share on September 11, 2024. The window to apply for lead plaintiff closes on November 9, 2026.

The Named Individual Defendants

Six insiders are identified as individual defendants: Chief Executive Officer Junming Terence Zou, Chief Financial Officer Chen Fei Lang, and directors Ting Yong Tan, Su Nee Joanne Khoo, Venkata Subramanian s/o Sreenivasan, and Wai Hong Poon, who served until August 22, 2024. The February 12, 2024 registration statement was signed by Zou and Lang, and Zou certified the Company’s 2023 annual report on Form 20-F, the securities action alleges.

Sarbanes-Oxley Certification Obligations

Officer certifications under Sarbanes-Oxley Sections 302 and 906 place personal responsibility on the signing executives for the accuracy of what a company tells the market. The action also pleads Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, which in practical terms means insiders who controlled the Company may be held jointly responsible for its alleged violations.

Alleged Control Person Liability

  • Each individual defendant allegedly possessed the power to control the contents of RYDE’s SEC reports, press releases, and presentations to money managers and institutional investors.
  • The officers who signed the offering documents allegedly attested to consolidated financial statements presented as conforming to U.S. GAAP, which the action claims they were not.
  • The chief executive allegedly certified the 2023 Form 20-F, which repeated the “Super mobility app” business description while omitting the alleged social media promotion campaign surrounding the stock.
  • Directors allegedly received copies of the challenged reports and releases before or shortly after issuance and had the opportunity to prevent or correct them.
  • No individual defendant issued a cautionary statement as outsized price swings and impersonator-run chat group promotion became publicly observable, as claimed.
  • The action further names the Company’s auditor, IPO underwriter, and process agent as gatekeepers who allegedly could have stopped the filings at issue.

“Corporate officers have a duty to ensure their companies’ public statements are accurate and complete. Here, the complaint alleges that the executives who signed and certified RYDE’s filings never told shareholders that the stock’s run from $4.00 to $22.49 bore no relationship to the business they described.” — Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

Q: What is a lead plaintiff and why does it matter? A: A lead plaintiff is the investor appointed by the court to represent the entire class.

Q: What do RYDE investors need to do right now? A: Investors may gather brokerage records showing purchase dates, share quantities, and prices paid. Submit your information for a no-cost, no-obligation evaluation of your potential recovery. No immediate action is required to remain eligible as an absent class member.

Q: What if I already sold my RYDE shares — can I still recover losses? A: Yes. Eligibility is based on when you purchased, not whether you still hold the shares. Investors who bought during the Class Period and sold at a loss may still be eligible to participate.

Q: Do I need to go to court or give testimony? A: No. The overwhelming majority of class members never appear in court or give depositions. If there is a settlement or recovery, eligible class members generally submit a claim form to seek their portion.

Q: What does it cost me to participate? A: There is no upfront cost to submit your information and review whether you may be eligible to recover. Should you choose to participate in the securities class action, they are generally handled on a contingency basis, with any attorneys’ fees and expenses subject to court approval.

UNCY DEADLINE: Levi & Korsinsky Reminds Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc. Investors of Upcoming Securities Class Action Deadline

A securities class action alleges Unicycive Therapeutics told shareholders its oxylanthanum carbonate application was on track without ever inspecting its third-party manufacturer’s facility for cGMP compliance. UNCY purchasers who lost $3.01 per share have specific rights under the federal securities laws.

NEW YORK, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Levi & Korsinsky, LLP notifies investors in Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNCY) that a securities class action has been filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased securities between December 29, 2025 and June 29, 2026. Submit your information. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.

UNCY closed at $7.70 on June 29, 2026. The next morning, shares fell $3.01, or 39.1%, to close at $4.69 on unusually heavy trading volume. Lead plaintiff applications must be submitted by November 2, 2026.

Why the June 30 Announcement Allegedly Mattered to Shareholders

On June 30, 2026, before the market opened, the Company announced that the FDA had issued a Complete Response Letter on the resubmitted OLC New Drug Application based on the “same third-party manufacturing deficiencies that were identified in the previous CRL issued in June 2025.” The same announcement stated that the FDA had not yet conducted its inspection of that vendor during the resubmission review, and that the resubmission had been made based on the Company’s “belief” of continued progress by the vendor. The action alleges that shareholders were never told the Company had not inspected or audited the vendor’s facility for compliance with current good manufacturing practices before resubmitting the application.

Rights Available to UNCY Purchasers

  • Eligibility turns on purchase timing. Investors who acquired UNCY securities between December 29, 2025 and June 29, 2026 and suffered losses may be class members.
  • Any class member may ask the court for appointment as lead plaintiff, a role courts typically award to the investor with the largest documented loss.
  • Investors who have already sold their shares may still be eligible, because eligibility is based on when shares were purchased.
  • Class members who take no action before the deadline may still share in any recovery that is ultimately obtained.
  • Investors choose their own counsel and may have their brokerage records reviewed at no cost and with no obligation.

No Upfront Cost to Review a Potential Claim

Having a claim evaluated costs nothing. Securities class actions are generally handled on a contingency basis, with any attorneys’ fees and expenses subject to court approval. The overwhelming majority of class members never appear in court or give testimony.

“Shareholders who bought UNCY during the Class Period have rights under the federal securities laws whether or not they still hold the stock,” said Joseph E. Levi, Esq. “Plaintiffs contend that investors were told the OLC resubmission rested on vendor progress that the Company itself had never verified through an inspection. Investors are entitled to have that allegation tested.”

Q: What do UNCY investors need to do right now? A: Investors may gather brokerage records showing purchase dates, share quantities, and prices paid.

U.S. Medical Device Makers Shift Technology Investments to Complete Product Lifecycles

U.S. Medical Device Makers Shift Technology Investments to Complete Product Lifecycles

Manufacturers align engineering, quality and compliance functions with post-market evolution, ISG Provider Lens® report says

STAMFORD, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
U.S. medical technology companies are shifting from conventional product development toward the creation of software-defined ecosystems that evolve continuously after launch, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm.

The 2026 ISG Provider Lens® Medical Device Digital Services report for the U.S. finds that digital investment is increasingly focused on complete product lifecycles rather than isolated technology programs. As devices become more connected, engineering, regulatory affairs, quality management, cybersecurity and post-market operations are becoming interdependent functions that require an integrated digital foundation. A software update can simultaneously affect validation evidence, cybersecurity posture, regulatory documentation and field performance, ISG says.

“Medical device transformation is now a lifecycle challenge, not a series of projects,” said Jenn Stein, partner and industry leader, ISG Manufacturing and Health Sciences. “Companies need data and workflows to be shared across critical disciplines to sustain improvement after launch.”

Enterprises are applying AI and automation to engineering, software development, testing, verification, validation and technical documentation. As AI adoption moves beyond proofs of concept, companies are evaluating whether AI-enabled workflows are reliable enough for regulated environments. Explainability, data governance, human oversight and change control increasingly influence purchasing decisions. Manufacturers are also exploring agentic AI but remain selective about allowing autonomous execution in highly regulated and safety-critical processes.

Organizations are also modernizing quality management systems and strengthening software bill of materials management to harmonize processes. They are embedding regulatory, risk and cybersecurity controls directly into development workflows to improve traceability. This approach enables companies to support the federal Quality Management System Regulation and strengthen vulnerability management for software-based devices. They expect quality transformation to enable faster engineering instead of creating a downstream control function.

Manufacturers are implementing remote patient monitoring, predictive maintenance and complaint intelligence across deployed devices. They want operational and patient data to generate earlier safety signals to guide engineering decisions and product improvements. Real-world data can strengthen evidence that engineering, regulatory and quality teams can use for continuous improvement. Success is measured through shorter complaint cycles, lower validation effort, fewer quality issues and greater device uptime, ISG says.

“Shared data becomes more valuable when it connects field experience with product decisions,” said Rohan Sinha, ISG principal analyst and lead author of the report. “Service providers can help manufacturers coordinate these functions while maintaining accountability throughout the lifecycle.”

The report also explores other trends in the U.S. digital device market, including the increasing integration of companion applications and remote monitoring into devices.

For more insights into challenges faced by medical device enterprises in the U.S., along with ISG’s advice for addressing them, see the ISG Provider Lens Focal Points briefing here.

The report evaluates 25 providers across three quadrants: Digital Engineering and Product Development, Regulatory Compliance, Strategy and Quality Assurance and AI and Innovation Driving Post-Market Enablement.

The report names Accenture, Capgemini, Cognizant, HCLTech, Infosys, LTTS, TCS and Wipro as Leaders in all three quadrants. It names Deloitte as a Leader in one quadrant.

In addition, Apexon, Hexaware and Tech Mahindra are recognized as Rising Stars — companies with a “promising portfolio” and “high future potential” by ISG’s definition — in one quadrant each.

In the area of customer experience, Persistent Systems is named the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2026 among medical device digital service providers. Persistent Systems earned the highest customer satisfaction scores in ISG’s Voice of the Customer survey, part of the ISG Star of Excellence™ program, the premier quality recognition for the technology and business services industry.

A customized version of the report is available from Zimetrics.

Levi & Korsinsky Reminds Lincoln Educational Services Investors of the Pending Class Action Lawsuit With a Lead Plaintiff Deadline of November 10, 2026 – LINC

A securities class action alleges Lincoln Educational Services raised its financial guidance on May 11, 2026 while allegedly omitting that enrolled students were not converting into actual class attendance, a gap disclosed on August 10, 2026 as LINC fell 24.93%.

NEW YORK, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Levi & Korsinsky, LLP notifies investors in Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ: LINC) that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased securities between May 11, 2026 and August 9, 2026. See if you could be eligible to recover. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.

LINC closed at a Class Period high of $55.68 on July 7, 2026. On August 10, 2026, the shares fell $10.22, or 24.93%, to close at $30.77 on unusually heavy trading volume. Investors have until November 10, 2026 to seek lead plaintiff status.

May 11, 2026: The Class Period Opens With Raised Guidance

The securities action alleges that on this date the Company reported first quarter results and raised its 2026 outlook, citing 19.5% student start growth. Management described continuing investment in “people and processes” and improving retention. As claimed in the action, the same disclosures omitted that the admissions process was not effectively converting enrolled students into students who actually began attending class.

August 10, 2026: The Conversion Gap Reaches the Market

The Company reported that second quarter student starts rose roughly 1% year over year, stating that “fewer enrolled students than expected attended the first day of class” and that it had “observed changes in the student decision-making process that affected conversion from enrollment to start.” Management also pointed to the resumption of federal student loan repayment in May 2026 and resulting borrower defaults. The lawsuit contends this disclosure corrected prior alleged misstatements, and the shares repriced the same morning.

Timeline of Alleged Disclosure Failures

  • May 11, 2026: Class Period begins as 2026 guidance is raised and retention gains are highlighted.
  • May 11, 2026: The quarterly report attributes revenue growth to start growth, without disclosing the alleged conversion weakness.
  • May 2026: Federal borrowers are required to resume loan repayment, a development management later linked to defaults and softer starts.
  • July 7, 2026: LINC closes at its Class Period high of $55.68 per share.
  • August 9, 2026: Class Period ends.
  • August 10, 2026: Second quarter results disclose approximately 1% start growth and a stated shift in student decision-making.

“Timely disclosure of material developments is fundamental to fair and efficient markets. The sequence here, from raised guidance in May to the August statement that fewer enrolled students than expected attended the first day of class, raises questions the complaint asks the court to examine.” — Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

Frequently Asked Questions About the LINC Lawsuit

Q: What specific misstatements does the LINC lawsuit allege? A: The complaint alleges Lincoln Educational Services made materially false or misleading statements regarding the effectiveness of its admissions process and the conversion of enrolled students into actual student starts during the Class Period. When the Company disclosed that second quarter student starts grew only about 1% despite 9% enrollment growth because fewer enrolled students than expected attended the first day of class, the stock price declined sharply.

Q: When did Lincoln Educational Services allegedly mislead investors? A: The Class Period runs from May 11, 2026 to August 9, 2026. The complaint alleges that corrective disclosures revealed information that caused a significant stock decline.

Q: What court was the LINC class action filed in? A: The case was filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, governed by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Q: What do LINC investors need to do right now? A: Investors may gather brokerage records showing purchase dates, share quantities, and prices paid. Submit your information for a no-cost, no-obligation evaluation of your potential recovery. No immediate action is required to remain eligible as an absent class member.

Q: What is a lead plaintiff and why does it matter? A: A lead plaintiff is the investor appointed by the court to represent the entire class. Lead plaintiffs are typically investors with the largest documented losses. Being appointed does not increase individual recovery but gives direct oversight of how the case is run.

Q: What if I already sold my LINC shares, can I still recover losses? A: Yes. Eligibility is based on when you purchased, not whether you still hold the shares. Investors who bought during the Class Period and sold at a loss may still be eligible to participate.

Q: Do I need to go to court or give testimony? A: No. The overwhelming majority of class members never appear in court or give depositions. If there is a settlement or recovery, eligible class members generally submit a claim form to seek their portion.

Q: How long will the lawsuit take to resolve? A: Securities class actions typically take two to four years from initial filing to resolution. Timing depends on the court schedule, case developments, and whether the matter is dismissed, settled, or litigated further.

About Celcuity

Celcuity is a commercial-stage biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing targeted therapies for the treatment of multiple solid tumor indications. The company’s first FDA-approved product is REVTORPYK™ (gedatolisib), a potent, pan-PI3K and mTORC1/2 inhibitor that comprehensively blockades the PAM pathway. Its mechanism of action and pharmacokinetic properties are differentiated from other currently approved and investigational therapies that target PI3Kα, AKT or mTORC1 alone or together. A Phase 3 clinical trial, VIKTORIA-1, evaluating gedatolisib in combination with fulvestrant with or without palbociclib in patients with HR+/HER2- ABC, supported FDA approval of REVTORPYK for use in patients without a PIK3CA mutation detected following progression on or after treatment with at least one line of endocrine therapy in the metastatic setting. Results for the PIK3CA mutant cohort of VIKTORIA-1 have been released. VIKTORIA-2 is an ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial incorporating two independent studies, Study 1 and Study 2, in two separate cohorts of patients with ABC who are treatment-naive in the advanced setting. Study 1 is evaluating gedatolisib plus palbociclib plus fulvestrant as first-line treatment for patients with endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2- ABC. Study 2 is evaluating gedatolisib plus palbociclib plus letrozole as first-line treatment for patients with endocrine-sensitive HR+/HER2- ABC. A Phase 1/2 clinical trial, CELC-G-201, evaluating gedatolisib in combination with darolutamide in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, is ongoing. More detailed information about Celcuity’s active clinical trials can be found at ClinicalTrials.gov. Celcuity is headquartered in Minneapolis.
