What Happened?<\/b><\/p>

On March 26, 2026, after the market closed, Veritone issued a press release, partially announcing fourth quarter 2025 financial results, including revenue in the range of $18.1 million to $30.0 million, and that the \u201cCompany has provided a range of expected revenue for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025 because it is currently finalizing its accounting determination of certain revenue transactions under ASC 606<\/b><\/i>.\u201d<\/p>

On this news, Veritone\u2019s stock price fell $0.77, or 29.5%, to close at $1.84 per share on March 27, 2026, on unusually heavy trading volume.<\/p>

On April 1, 2026, before the market opened, the Company filed a Form NT 10-K with the SEC, disclosing the Company \u201cwas unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 . . . within the prescribed time period primarily due to delays in finalizing the Company\u2019s accounting determination of certain barter revenue transactions under ASC 606.<\/b><\/i>\u201d The filing further stated the \u201congoing accounting analysis\u201d may \u201cresult in out-of-period adjustments, the largest of which may result in a reduction in revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 of $1.5 million to $2.5 million,<\/b><\/i> or 5.2% to 8.6%, of the total $29.1 million of revenue previously reported for such quarter.\u201d The Company disclosed it was evaluating \u201cwhether the previously issued financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025 may need to be revised or restated.<\/b><\/i>\u201d<\/p>

On this news, Veritone\u2019s stock price fell $0.18, or 9.14%, to close at $1.79 per share on April 1, 2026, on unusually heavy trading volume.<\/p>

On April 14, 2026, after the market closed, Veritone filed a Form 8-K with the SEC which disclosed the Company had \u201cdetermined that the Company\u2019s 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<\/b><\/i>\u201d due to errors which resulted in, among other things, a significant overstatement of revenue and understatement of net loss. The filing disclosed a number of errors, including \u201can error in the valuation of consideration received associated with an on-premise software sold and delivered to a customer<\/b><\/i>\u201d as well as the \u201cmisclassification of revenue and costs in transactions in which the Company acted as an agent under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers<\/b><\/i>.\u201d<\/p>

On this news, Veritone\u2019s stock price fell $0.19, or 8.3%, to close at $2.09 per share on April 15, 2026, on unusually heavy trading volume.<\/p>

What Is The Lawsuit About?<\/b><\/p>

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and\/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company\u2019s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (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\u2019 positive statements about the Company\u2019s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and\/or lacked a reasonable basis.<\/p>
