CLASS PERIOD: August 10, 2023 to June 25, 2025

ALLEGATIONS: According to the complaint, on June 26, 2025, Altimmune published a press release announcing topline results from the IMPACT Phase 2b MASH trial of Pemvidutide in the Treatment of MASH. While defendants had continuously provided inflated expectations ahead of these results, the analysis showed a pointed failure by the Company to achieve statistical significance in its analysis of the fibrosis reduction primary endpoint in its IMPACT Phase 2b MASH trial. In particular, while a positive trend in fibrosis improvement was observed, statistical significance was not met due to a higher-than-expected placebo response. When questioned about this concerning miss, defendants answered indifferently, attributing this result to the Phase 2 nature of the trial and stated that Altimmune was hoping for better results following the Phase 3 trial. Following this news, the price of Altimmune’s common stock declined dramatically. From a closing market price of $7.71 per share on June 25, 2025, Altimmune’s stock price fell to $3.61 per share on June 26, 2025, a decline of 53.2% in the span of just a single day.

DEADLINE: October 6, 2025 Shareholders should not delay in registering for this class action. Register your information here: https://securitiesclasslaw.com/securities/altimmune-inc-loss-submission-form-2/?id=163680&from=3

Redfin Reports Home Purchases Are Getting Canceled at a Record Rate

Redfin Reports Home Purchases Are Getting Canceled at a Record Rate

15% of home purchases fell through last month—the highest July rate on record—as high homebuying costs made buyers skittish. Cancellations were most common in Texas and Florida.

SEATTLE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Roughly 58,000 U.S. home-purchase agreements were canceled in July, equal to 15.3% of homes that went under contract last month, according to a new report from Redfin, the real estate brokerage powered by Rocket. That’s up from 14.5% a year earlier and marks the highest July rate in records dating back to 2017.

This is based on a Redfin analysis of MLS pending-sales data. The data are seasonal, which is why Redfin compares this July to past Julys. Please note that homes that fell out of contract during a given month didn’t necessarily go under contract the same month.

Home purchases are falling through more than usual because high prices, high mortgage rates and economic uncertainty are making buyers uneasy. Buyers also have more homes to choose from than in the past, which means they hold the negotiating power in many markets and often aren’t in a rush. They may back out during the inspection period if a better home comes up for sale or they discover an issue they don’t want to fix.

Cleveland Redfin Premier real estate agent Bonnie Phillips said the most common reasons buyers back out of deals are cold feet, high standards and issues with inspections, and she noted that cancellations are particularly common among buyers who use FHA and VA loans. But some would-be buyers have other reasons for backing out:

“I recently had an older first-time buyer get cold feet the week before the deal was supposed to close,” Phillips said. “It was a beautiful house, we got it for the price she wanted and there were no issues in the inspection, but her neighbors convinced her that owning is too much of a hassle and she should rent instead.”

It’s worth noting that the housing-market tides are starting to shift slightly. Mortgage rates have been coming down, which could bring some sidelined buyers back to the market, and supply is also ticking down, which could increase buyer urgency.

Home Purchases Are Most Likely to Fall Through in Texas and Florida

In San Antonio, 730 home-purchase agreements were canceled in July, equal to 22.7% of homes that went under contract last month—the highest percentage among the metros Redfin analyzed. Next came Fort Lauderdale, FL (21.3%), Jacksonville, FL (19.9%), Atlanta (19.7%) and Tampa, FL (19.5%). Redfin analyzed the 50 most populous metro areas, and included the 44 with sufficient data.

Florida and Texas have been building more homes than anywhere else in the country, prompting some buyers to back out of deals because they’re confident they will be able to find a different home that works better for them. Some buyers in the Sunshine State are also getting cold feet due to increasing natural disasters and soaring insurance and HOA fees.

Home purchases were least likely to fall through in Nassau County, NY (5.1%), Montgomery County, PA (8.2%), Milwaukee (8.3%), New York (9.5%) and Seattle (10.2%).

Virginia Beach, Newark See Biggest Upticks in Cancellations

In Virginia Beach, VA, nearly 500 home-purchase agreements were canceled in July, equal to 16.1% of homes that went under contract last month. That’s up 3.6 percentage points from 12.5% a year earlier—the largest increase among the metros in Redfin’s analysis. Rounding out the top five are Newark, NJ (+3.3 ppts), Baltimore (+3 ppts), San Antonio (2.8 ppts) and Houston (2.8 ppts).

Virginia Beach has a higher share of homeowners with VA loans than any other major metro, according to a separate Redfin analysis, with Baltimore also near the top of the list.

Cancellations fell from a year earlier in 11 metros, with the biggest drops in Phoenix (-2.4 ppts), Orlando, FL (-1.4 ppts), Tampa (-1.3 ppts), Sacramento, CA (-1.3 ppts) and Philadelphia (-1.2 ppts).

Workhorse Group and Motiv Electric Trucks Executed Definitive Agreement to Combine, Creating a Leading Medium-Duty Electric Truck OEM in North America

Joins Workhorse’s proven vehicles, manufacturing capabilities and national dealer network with Motiv’s diverse product portfolio and top fleet relationships

Positions combined company to create value by offering broader portfolio of high performing commercial EVs at lower unit costs in the sizeable medium-duty truck market

Strengthens combined company’s financial profile through improved operational scale and

simplified capital structure

Workhorse closed today on $20M sale leaseback of Union City plant and $5M convertible note

CINCINNATI, Ohio and FOSTER CITY, Calif., Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Workhorse Group Inc. (Nasdaq: WKHS) (“Workhorse” or the “Company”), an American technology company focused on pioneering the transition to zero-emission commercial vehicles, and Motiv Electric Trucks (“Motiv”), a leading manufacturer of medium-duty electric trucks and buses, today announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement to combine in a transaction that will create a leading North American medium-duty electric truck OEM.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, following the completion of the all-stock transaction, Motiv’s controlling investor will become the majority owner of the combined company and Workhorse shareholders will maintain a significant equity stake. In connection with the merger agreement, Workhorse has completed a sale leaseback (“SLB”) and obtained convertible note financing. The transactions value the combined company at approximately $105 million.1

The combination brings together two innovators in the medium-duty electric vehicle space to better serve a blue-chip customer base and enhance value for shareholders. Building on the companies’ complementary platforms, the combined business will be a leader in the $23 billion medium-duty truck segment2 with a full range of Class 4-6 trucks. The companies believe that together, they will benefit from increased scale, an expanded product portfolio and enhanced operational efficiencies to support lower unit costs while optimizing total cost of ownership (TCO) for customers.

The combined company is expected to have a strengthened financial profile with a simplified capital structure and the financial resources to capture anticipated demand from the ongoing transition to clean energy and better help customers decarbonize their fleets.

Following the closing of the transaction, Scott Griffith, Motiv CEO, is expected to serve as CEO of the combined company and Rick Dauch, Workhorse CEO, is expected to serve as an advisor to the combined company.

“Bringing together two leading OEMs in the medium-duty space strengthens our ability to reduce the cost of electric trucks and make the total cost of ownership even more compelling,” said Scott Griffith, CEO of Motiv. “We believe this is a coming-of-age moment—not just for Motiv and Workhorse, but for the industry as a whole, and that widespread adoption of medium-duty electric trucks will come from achieving cost parity vs. ICE and diesel trucks and offering compelling long-term value. That’s exactly what we’re focused on delivering with this merger, and with a combined more than 17 million miles under our belt, we believe the transaction will put us in a strong starting position to deliver on this vision. I’m excited by the opportunity to lead the combined company, work closely with the Motiv and Workhorse teams to capture the opportunities ahead, and deliver for our customers, our shareholders and the communities in which our trucks operate.”

“This transaction represents a significant milestone for Workhorse, our customers, our stakeholders and our shareholders,” said Rick Dauch, CEO of Workhorse. “By combining with Motiv and completing the related transactions, we are creating a broader product offering, strengthening our near- and long-term financial position and providing Workhorse shareholders with the opportunity to participate in the upside of a leader in the medium-duty EV commercial vehicle market. We believe Motiv is the right partner to support the advancement of our combined product roadmap and capture new growth opportunities. Together, we are confident we will be even better positioned to win the commercial EV transition and create value for shareholders.”

Compelling Strategic and Financial Benefits

Workhorse and Motiv believe that the investments made into their respective businesses position the combined company to have the sector’s most scalable manufacturing, most advanced and road-tested products, and most wide-reaching go-to-market networks. As a result, the companies believe the transaction will provide significant benefits to customers and shareholders by:

  • Creating a category leader positioned for rapid innovation and scalable growth. Joining Motiv’s diverse product portfolio and top fleet relationships with Workhorse’s proven vehicles, manufacturing capabilities and national dealer network is expected to create a platform for long-term growth. Workhorse’s Union City facility has the capacity to eventually produce up to 5,000 trucks per year.

  • Leveraging combined scale and strengths to reduce unit costs. Workhorse and Motiv believe that the combined company will compete more effectively with the industry’s pure-play electric and legacy OEMs. Workhorse and Motiv believe the combined company will capitalize on new opportunities to serve more customers with a more competitively advantaged electric offering than gas/diesel trucks and buses on a TCO basis.   

  • Joining complementary customer bases. Workhorse and Motiv believe the next phase of large-scale adoption of medium-duty electric trucks in North America will be driven by national-scale commercial fleets with tested and piloted multi-depot EV truck operations. Together, Motiv and Workhorse have served 10 of the largest medium-duty fleets in North America3, positioning the combined company to expand adoption through these existing relationships with likely early scalers.

  • Establishing a strong financial foundation. The companies believe that the transaction strengthens the combined company’s financial position and creates opportunities for margin expansion, enabling greater flexibility to pursue future growth initiatives. With a simplified capital structure, the combined company also expects to be better positioned to raise additional capital post-close.

  • Presenting significant synergy opportunities. The companies believe there is the potential to achieve at least $20 million of cost synergies, including through R&D, G&A, and facility cost-reductions by the end of 2026. The combined companies also intend to utilize a product and engineering approach to maximize the use of common software, hardware, and IP across its Class 4-6 platforms to pursue additional cost savings, an enhanced technology baseline and a best-in-class customer experience with limited downtime and optimized TCO.

Transaction Details

Under the terms of the merger agreement, Motiv will be merged with a newly created subsidiary of Workhorse in exchange for newly issued shares of Workhorse common stock. Upon completion of the transaction, on a fully diluted basis, Motiv’s controlling investor initially will own approximately 62.5% of the combined company, Workhorse shareholders will own approximately 26.5% and Workhorse’s existing senior secured lender will have rights to receive common stock that represent approximately 11%, all of which are subject to certain potential adjustments and additional future dilution. Pursuant to the transaction, certain stockholders of Motiv, to the extent they are also holders of financial indebtedness of Motiv, agreed to cancel their financial indebtedness to Motiv in exchange for Workhorse common stock. Additional information regarding Workhorse’s agreement with its secured lender and select other parties will be available in the Company’s SEC filings.

In connection with the proposed merger transaction, Workhorse also completed two transactions with entities affiliated with Motiv’s controlling investor: the SLB transaction for Workhorse’s Union City, Indiana manufacturing facility for $20 million and the secured, convertible note financing for $5 million, each of which were consummated at the time of execution with the merger agreement. These transactions are expected to provide near-term liquidity to fund Workhorse’s operations through closing and to provide capital to pay down debt owed to Workhorse’s existing senior secured lender. At closing of the merger, all remaining indebtedness to such lender, including all warrants currently held by the lender, will be repaid and/or cancelled, with the only remaining secured indebtedness of the combined companies being the $5 million secured, convertible note held by Motiv’s controlling investor, which may convert to equity in connection with post-closing financing.  

In addition, the merger agreement includes a condition to closing that entities affiliated with Motiv’s controlling investor will provide $20 million in debt financing at the completion of the transaction, of which approximately $10 million is expected to be available in a revolving credit facility and an additional $10 million is expected to be available to fund manufacturing costs associated with confirmed purchase orders of the combined company in an ABL facility. The combined company also will seek to raise additional equity financing to fund its go forward strategic execution.

Timing and Approvals

The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to Workhorse shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions, including the debt financing commitment noted above.

Letter to Workhorse Shareholders

Workhorse also issued a letter to its shareholders highlighting the strategic and financial benefits of the proposed transaction. The full letter from Rick Dauch, Workhorse CEO, can be accessed here.

Turtle Beach Corporation, Together With The Donerail Group, Announces $20 Million Share Repurchase From Shareholder

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Turtle Beach Corporation (Nasdaq: TBCH, the “Company”), a leading gaming accessories brand, today announced it entered into a definitive agreement to repurchase 694,926 shares of common stock from Diversis Capital (“Diversis”), at the 30-day volume weighted average price of $14.41 per share, for a total of approximately $10 million.  

Simultaneous with the Company’s repurchase, The Donerail Group (“Donerail”), an investment management firm, has acquired 693,962 shares of Turtle Beach common stock from Diversis at the same price per share.

Following the completion of the transaction, Diversis will own approximately 10% of Turtle Beach’s common stock. The remaining shares beneficially owned by Diversis will be subject to a new 90-day lock-up agreement.

“This transaction reflects our continued confidence in Turtle Beach’s strategy and long-term value creation,” said Cris Keirn, CEO of Turtle Beach Corporation. “We’re pleased to have executed this repurchase directly, which aligns with our capital allocation priorities and underscores our belief in the strength of our business.”

“It has been a privilege to serve on Turtle Beach’s Board of Directors and work closely with management over the past two years. The Company’s transformation over that period has been significant,” said Will Wyatt, Managing Partner of The Donerail Group and Turtle Beach board member. “We are excited to increase our investment in the Company as the Board drives to create value for all shareholders.”

The repurchase was executed under the Company’s existing $75 million authorization and in compliance with the Company’s credit agreement and capital return framework. The recently completed refinancing of Turtle Beach’s debt facilities provided the flexibility to execute this transaction and represents the Company’s commitment of utilizing share repurchases to drive shareholder value. The transaction enhances shareholder alignment and ownership stability.

IAS Introduces Pre-Screen Brand Safety and Suitability Solution for Google Search Partner Network

PR Newswire

Advertisers Can Now Benefit from Curated Pre-Screen Exclusion Lists across Google’s Search Partner Network Inventory


NEW YORK
, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Integral Ad Science (Nasdaq: IAS), a leading global media measurement and optimization platform, today announced the launch of IAS Pre-Screen Brand Safety Solution for Search Partner Network (SPN). IAS will now drive performance and protection across SPN by providing advertisers with greater control over their advertising investments before their ads are shown across SPN.

SPN inventory consists of search-related websites and apps that enable advertisers to drive reach and conversions across mobile and desktop. IAS’s solution allows advertisers to automatically exclude search partner sites aligned to industry standard safety and suitability definitions, across the entire SPN domain list.

“This expansion builds on our partnership with Google to provide global advertisers continued access to independent, and trusted, third party measurement and optimization solutions,” said Lisa Utzschneider, CEO of IAS. “IAS is committed to providing brands with greater transparency no matter where their digital media investments are being spent so they can confidently scale their campaigns across all channels and devices.”

IAS provides SPN advertisers with:

  • Trusted Third-Party Control: IAS Pre-Screen Brand Safety Solution is based on 12 industry-aligned standards. Weekly updates ensure domains are regularly filtered out to drive brand safety and suitability across SPN inventory.
  • Comprehensive Global Coverage: Drive performance with IAS across the Google ecosystem, including YouTube, Google Video Partners, and now Search Partner Network.
  • Support Across Campaign Types: Advertisers can utilize IAS’s exclusion lists across all campaign types with SPN inventory, i.e. Search, Standard Shopping, Apps, and Performance Max campaign types.

Paired with Google’s established brand safety protections for SPN, IAS’s solution provides advertisers with an additional independent layer of trusted third-party transparency and proactive control. The launch of IAS Pre-Screen Brand Safety Solution for SPN is the latest expansion of IAS’s longstanding collaboration with Google.

In 2024, IAS launched IAS Optimization for YouTube to maximize contextual suitability for advertisers across YouTube through enhanced pre-screen suitability controls. Previously, IAS announced the expansion of its industry-leading Brand Safety and Suitability Measurement product for YouTube to include reporting for Performance Max and Demand Gen campaigns, and just prior, the launch of IAS Curation with Google Ad Manager.
