A securities class action has been filed against AeroVironment, Inc. (AVAV) on behalf of a class consisting of all persons and entities other than Defendants that purchased or otherwise acquired AeroVironment securities between June 25, 2025 through March 10, 2026. This case has been filed in the USDC – EDVA.
During the Class Period, Defendants consistently assured investors that the SCAR program would drive revenue growth for AeroVironment moving forward. Among other items, Defendants stated that the SCAR program represented a “tremendous growth opportunity,” that AeroVironment’s work pursuant to the contract was “very much on track,” that the customer was “asking for more [BADGER systems],” and that the Company stood “ready to build more.”Throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) AeroVironment understated the likelihood that it would imminently face competition from other vendors for the work it performed in connection with the SCAR program and the U.S. Space Force’s ongoing efforts to modernize the SCN; (ii) accordingly, Defendants overstated AeroVironment’s business and financial prospects; and (iii) as a result, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
