\nInvestors Who Purchased UWM Holdings Corporation Common Stock Between March 9, 2026 and August 5, 2026 May Seek Appointment as Lead Plaintiff by October 13, 2026

NEW YORK, Aug. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wolf Popper LLP, a law firm representing investors in securities litigation, announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed against UWM Holdings Corporation (\u201cUWM\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d (NYSE: UWMC).<\/p>\n
