What is this Case About: AeroVironment, Inc. (AVAV) Misled Investors by Providing the Public with Materially Flawed Revenue Guidance for Fiscal 2022
According to the complaint, defendants touted AeroVironment's business prospects and provided investors with material information concerning the Company's expected revenue for the fiscal year 2022. However, at the same time, defendants concealed material adverse facts concerning procurement delays, supply chain issues, staffing shortages, and possession of a record backlog.
On December 7, 2021, AeroVironment issued a press release announcing its second quarter earnings. In pertinent part, defendants announced they were reducing their guidance for fiscal 2022 from $560 and $580 million down to $440 and $460 million due allegedly to supply chain constraints due to COVID-19, extended procurement cycles tied to the Continuing Resolution, and staffing shortages. On this news, AeroVironment’s stock price fell from $79.95 per share on December 6, 2021, to $57.98 per share on December 7, 2021, a decline of nearly 27%.
