NYSE: BBAI INVESTOR ALERT: Berger Montague Advises BigBear.ai Holdings (NYSE: BBAI)

PHILADELPHIA, April 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Berger Montague PC advises investors that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed against BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (“BigBear” or the “Company”) (NYSE: BBAI) on behalf of purchasers of BigBear securities between March 31, 2022 through March 25, 2025, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

Investor Deadline: Investors who purchased or acquired
BigB
ear
securities during the Class Period may, no later than
JUNE 10, 2025
, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class.

.

BigBear, headquartered in McLean, VA, is an AI-driven technology company offering national security, supply chain management, and digital identity and biometrics solutions. In June 2021, BigBear.ai Holdings entered into a business combination with GigCapital4, Inc., a special purpose acquisition company. After the business combination was consummated on December 7, 2021, BigBear issued $200 million of convertible notes with a maturity date of December 15, 2026.

The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose that: (i) BigBear maintained deficient accounting review policies; (ii) the Company incorrectly determined that the conversion option within the 2026 Notes qualified for the derivative scope exception under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40 and failed to bifurcate the conversion option as required by ASC 815-15; (iii) thus, BigBear had improperly accounted for the 2026 Notes.

On March 18, 2025, BigBear disclosed that certain financial statements since fiscal year 2021 should no longer be relied upon and would be restated, in particular with respect to the accounting treatment of the Company’s 2026 Notes.

On this news, BigBear’s stock price fell $0.52 per share, or 14.9%, to close at $2.97 per share on March 18, 2025.

Then, on March 25, 2025, BigBear filed its 2024 10-K, disclosing that a “conversion option embedded within the 2026 Notes was incorrectly deemed to be eligible for a scope exception from the bifurcation requirements of ASC 815-15….” As a result, the Company’s financial statements were restated. The Company further disclosed that it had identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting – specifically, that BigBear had not “consistently executed [its] technical accounting review policies” with respect to certain non-routine, unusual, or complex transactions.”

On this news, BigBear’s stock price fell $0.32 per share, or 9.11%, to close at $3.19 per share on March 26, 2025.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. Communicating with any counsel is not necessary to participate or share in any recovery achieved in this case. Any member of the purported class may move the Court to serve as a lead plaintiff through counsel of his/her choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an inactive class member.

Berger Montague, with offices in Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Delaware, Washington, D.C., San Diego, San Francisco and Chicago, has been a pioneer in securities class action litigation since its founding in 1970. Berger Montague has represented individual and institutional investors for over five decades and serves as lead counsel in courts throughout the United States.

MicroCloud Hologram Developed an Innovative Blockchain Reconstruction Solution to Strengthen Crypto System Security

PR Newswire


SHENZHEN, China
, April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MicroCloud Hologram Inc. (NASDAQ: HOLO) (“HOLO” or the “Company”), a Hologram Digital Twins Technology provider, today announced that it developed an innovative solution aiming to provide an effective reconstruction for blockchain when it gets attacked. The solution employs verifiable secret sharing (VSS) technology to ensure that the blockchain system can quickly restore and maintain data integrity and consistency even under extreme circumstances.

HOLO’s blockchain reconstruction solution is based on the following components:

Verifiable secret sharing (VSS)

VSS is a cryptographic technique that allows a private key to be split into multiple shares and distributed to different participants. These shares are meaningless individually, and the original secret can only be reconstructed when a certain number of shares are pooled. VSS is used to protect private keys and ensure that users can recover their blockchain data even if some of the nodes are compromised.

Redundant storage on distributed nodes

In order to improve the fault tolerance of the system, HOLO uses a redundant storage mechanism on distributed nodes. This means that each node not only stores its own copy of the ledger, but also stores part of the ledger information of other nodes. In this way, even if some nodes are damaged, other nodes can use the redundant information to help rebuild the lost data.

Dynamic participant selection and verification

Participant selection and verification are crucial in blockchain systems. By dynamically selecting participants and verifying them rigorously, it is ensured that only trusted nodes can participate in the blockchain maintenance and data reconstruction process. This greatly reduces the impact of malicious nodes on the system.

Reward and punishment mechanisms

In order to eliminate the incentives for dishonest reconstruction, HOLO designed a set of incentives and punishments. Under this mechanism, users who honestly participate in reconstruction will be rewarded, while users who try to destroy or tamper with data will face severe punishment. This mechanism effectively improves the security and reliability of the system.

In contrast to traditional reconstruction mechanisms, the scheme is able to take effect immediately, without waiting for negotiation and trust establishment between different blockchain parties. Each user can reconstruct their own data independently without relying on other untrustworthy participants. Through VSS and incentive mechanisms, the scheme greatly improves the security of the blockchain system in the face of malicious attacks. All operations in the reconstruction process are transparent and traceable, ensuring data integrity and consistency.

HOLO’s innovative blockchain reconstruction solution provides a new kind of security for encrypted systems. By introducing verifiable secret sharing technology, the solution not only protects against malicious attacks, but also quickly recovers the system in the event of an attack, ensuring the security and integrity of data. With the continuous development and application of blockchain technology, this solution from HOLO will undoubtedly bring a far-reaching impact to the entire industry.

About MicroCloud Hologram Inc.

MicroCloud Hologram Inc. (NASDAQ:HOLO) engages in the research and development, and application of holographic technology. MicroCloud Hologram provides its holographic technology services to its customers worldwide. MicroCloud Hologram also provides holographic digital twin technology services and has a proprietary holographic digital twin technology resource library.
