According to the complaint, 'Red Cat manufactures drones through its subsidiary Teal Drones, Inc. ('Teal') at a facility located in Salt Lake City, Utah ('Salt Lake Facility'). Throughout 2022, Defendants touted their development of the Salt Lake Facility's capacity to produce 'thousands of drones per month' or 'tens of thousands of drones' per year.'
'In March 2022, Red Cat announced that Teal had been selected by the U.S. Department of Defense's [] Defense Innovation Unit and the U.S. Army to compete in Tranche 2[] of the U.S. Army's Short Range Reconnaissance Program of Record ('SRR Program') . . . Defendants suggested or otherwise asserted that the SRR Program's Tranche 2 contract ('SRR Contract'') was worth potentially hundreds of millions to over a billion dollars in contract revenues.'
'On November 19, 2024, Red Cat issued a press release announcing that it had won the SRR Contract. On a subsequent conference call . . . Defendants continued to assert that the SRR Contract was worth potentially hundreds of millions of dollars, while expressing their confidence that Red Cat could realize up to $50 million to $79.5 million in revenue from the SRR Contract during its fiscal year 2025 alone.'
'Then, on January 16, 2025, Kerrisdale Capital ('Kerrisdale') published a report alleging, inter alia, that Defendants had overstated the value of the SRR Contract, which Kerrisdale found was only worth approximately $20 million to $25 million based on U.S. Army budget documents.'
On this news, Red Cat's stock fell $2.35 per share, or 21.54%, over the following two trading sessions, to close at $8.56 per share on January 17, 2025.
The complaint alleges, among other things, that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that (i) the Salt Lake City Facility's production capacity, and Defendants' progress in developing the same, was overstated; (ii) the overall value of the SRR Contract was overstated; and (iii) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

Amazon Founder Jeff Bezos Loses $17 Billion Following Company's Mixed Q2 Earnings
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Jeff Bezos, the founder and Executive Chairman of Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), saw his net worth take a plunge, alongside the shares of his company, following its second quarter results last week. What Happened: The fourth-richest man in the world, with a net worth of $237 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, lost $17 billion last week on Friday, from $254 billion the prior day, after investors were unimpressed with the company's second-quarter earnings. The stock was down 8.27% on Friday, following the company's results, despite it beating consensus estimates on sales and earnings. Don't Miss: 7,000+ investors have joined Timeplast's mission to eliminate microplastics— This AI-Powered Trading Platform Has 5,000+ Users, 27 Pending Patents, and a $43.97M Valuation — You Can Become an Investor for Just $500.25 This was largely attributed to the slowing momentum in the company's AWS cloud computing segment, which generated $10.2 billion in sales during the quarter, up 17.5% year-over-year, which fell short of consensus estimates at 20%. Amazon shares currently constitute a significant chunk of Bezos' net worth, with 884 million shares, or 8.3% of total shares outstanding, which, at the stock's current market price, is valued at $190 billion. The rest of his fortune comprises Blue Origin, his space exploration company, which, being privately held, is valued at the cost of investment. Why It Matters: According to analyst Eric Allen of Stealth, the market's reaction to the company's earnings was 'totally wrong,' since this was a capacity issue, with Amazon unable to meet the growing demand for its AWS computing resources. Amazon reported $167.7 billion in sales during the quarter, up 13% year-over-year, and ahead of consensus estimates at $161.9 billion. It posted a profit of $1.68 per share, which again beat analyst consensus estimates at $1.30. Bezos has been consistently offloading his stake in the company he founded, having sold 95 million shares in 2024 and 2025 so far, with net proceeds of $18.2 billion.

Wall Street thinks the party for Palantir can continue even after a wild rally in 2025 — but there's one key risk
Palantir is the top-performing stock in the S&P 500 this year, and Wall Street is upbeat about what's ahead. Palantir has been on a tear, climbing 113% since the start of the year. A lofty valuation is the main risk analysts are eyeing heading into second-quarter earnings. Wall Street thinks the Palantir party can keep going. The stock is already up by about 113% this year as it heads into its second-quarter earnings report after the bell on Monday, but analysts see reasons to believe the gains can pile up further. The Alex Karp-led software giant is benefiting from a slew of government contracts, roaring AI demand, and a cultlike following among retail investors in 2025. Shares of the company have soared from around $75 a share at the start of 2025 to above $160 on Monday. That ascent has made Palantir the best-performing stock in the S&P 500 this year. Analysts are bullish about Palantir's second-quarter earnings. They estimate the tech giant will report $939.3 million in revenue for the three-month period, up around 38% year over year. Here are some of the reasons they see the growth story continuing — and one key risk. 1. The AI trade is still running hot Palantir will likely keep up growth in its commercial segment, thanks to the ongoing hype surrounding AI. Accelerating AI adoption is creating a greater need to integrate data, which is good news for the stock, analysts at Mizuho wrote in a note. The bank said it conducted checks on Palantir's enterprise inbound activity, which gave it confidence that the company would be able to beat its commercial growth guidance in 2025. Palantir expects the US commercial side of its business to grow 68% for the year. "PLTR's recent execution and momentum is stunning, including material upward revisions across its commercial and government segments that we very much underestimated," Mizuho analysts wrote. Analysts at UBS said they also conducted checks on Palantir's enterprise businesses, and lifted their estimates for the company's revenue growth from 31% to 38% for the year. "We see potential tailwinds from the increasing adoption of AI across enterprise," Citi analysts wrote, adding that its checks and its conversation with Palantir's chief finance officer were also positive. Government contracts A large part of Palantir's growth story has been fueled by its contracts with the federal government. In April, the software company secured a $30 million deal with the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement for software to monitor visas and track deportations. In May, the firm teamed up with Fannie Mae, and said it would provide AI tools to support the government-sponsored mortgage financier's Crime Detection Unit. It also secured a $795 million contract with the Department of Defense's AI arm, and last week, locked a deal to help streamline the US Army for up to $10 billion for the next decade. The deal consolidates 75 existing contracts into a single agreement. "We believe this deal represents an additional tailwind for PLTR with AI initiatives across the US government accelerating with AI a strategic focus on the federal front and Palantir in the sweet spot to benefit from a tidal wave of federal spending on AI," analysts at Wedbush Securities wrote last week, calling Palantir one of the top tech stocks to own in 2025. "We remain positive on the public sector pipeline, which appears durable given ongoing geopolitical instability. Net, we believe PLTR will likely be able to continue growing its Government revenue >40% Y/Y over at least the near-term," Mizuho said. "We continue to view Palantir as well positioned to continue to deliver best-in-class growth given the secular trend towards enterprise AI adoption; the continued push for efficiency and technology adoption in the US government; and adoption of Operation Warp Speed among new defense entrants, traditional defense companies, and the broader manufacturing industry," analyst at Goldman Sachs wrote in a note following Palantir's first-quarter earnings report in May. High bar But there's one risk Wall Street is eyeing: the valuation is at eye-watering levels. As of Monday afternoon, the trailing 12-month price-to-earnings ratio was above 690x. Despite a bullish short-term outlook, Goldman Sachs, UBS, and Mizuho are among those on Wall Street who rated Palantir as "neutral" headed into its second-quarter earnings. Analysts at Citi, meanwhile, rated the stock as "Neutral/High Risk." "We maintain our Neutral/High Risk rating on the stock on valuation concerns and our view that second derivative/revision trends could moderate limiting upside," Citi added in a note. "That said, we are equally stunned by the multiple that PLTR has attained, which places its valuation dramatically above anything else in software," Mizuho analysts said, adding they would "continue to worry" that the stock could see a reversion sometime in the next several quarters. "We continue to be very impressed by the fundamental story (we have been since our launch) but valuation remains our key hurdle, we remain Neutral rated," UBS said.
