Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.
As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) that the Company inaccurately recorded and/or misclassified certain revenue and costs; (2) that, as a result, the Company overstated its revenue, assets, accounts receivable, royalties and other comprehensive income; (3) that Veritone maintained deficient internal controls over accounting and financial reporting; (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company would be forced to restate certain of its financial statements, and (5) that, as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
On March 26, 2026, after the market closed, Veritone released its preliminary fourth quarter 2025 financial results, expecting revenue between $18.1 and $30 million. The Company explained that the range in expected revenue was because it was “currently finalizing its accounting determination for certain revenue transactions under ASC 606.”
On this news, Veritone’s stock price fell $0.77, or 29.5%, to close at $1.84 per share on March 27, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
Then, on April 14, 2026, after the market closed, Veritone disclosed that it had “determined that the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 should no longer be relied upon” due to errors resulting in significant overstatement of revenue and understatement of net loss.
On this news, Veritone’s stock price fell $0.19, or 8.3%, to close at $2.09 per share on April 15, 2026, thereby injuring investors further.
The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.
