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

\nThe lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased securities during the period of June 25, 2025 through March 10, 2026, inclusive (\u201cthe Class Period\u201d). The lawsuit alleges that (i) AeroVironment understated the likelihood that it would imminently face competition from other vendors for the work it performed in connection with the Satellite Communication Augmentation Resource (\u201cSCAR\u201d) program and the U.S. Space Force\u2019s ongoing efforts to modernize the Satellite Control Network (\u201cSCN\u201d); and (ii) accordingly, Defendants overstated AeroVironment\u2019s business and financial prospects.<\/p>

\nOn January 20, 2026, AeroVironment announced that the U.S. government had issued a stop work order on the Company\u2019s agreement to deliver Broad Area Deployable Ground Terminal Enabling Resilient (\u201cBADGER\u201d) communication systems to the SCAR program. In the same announcement, AeroVironment stated that the stop work order \u201callows for the parties to negotiate an amended agreement for the future of the SCAR program\u201d and that \u201c[t]he Company expects to continue to deliver capabilities and products for the SCAR program.\u201d On this news, the price of AeroVironment shares declined by $61.97 per share, or approximately 16%, from $392.86 per share on January 16, 2026 to close at $330.89 on January 20, 2026.<\/p>

\nThen, on March 2, 2026, Space News reported that the U.S. Space Force was reopening the SCAR program and \u201creassessing how to move forward.\u201d Space News quoted Colonel Owen Stevens, director of contracting at the Space Rapid Capabilities Office, which supervised SCAR, as stating, \u201cWe have been in conversations with the [senior acquisition executive] for a little while now, and we are going to move into a new acquisition strategy for SCAR.\u201d On this news, the price of AeroVironment shares declined by $43.93 per share, or approximately 17%, from $252.25 per share on February 27, 2026 to close at $208.32 on March 2, 2026.<\/p>

\nThen, on March 10, 2026, AeroVironment announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026. Among other items, AeroVironment reported a third-quarter operating loss of $179.0 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.1 million for the same period in fiscal year 2025. These financial results reflected the impact of a $151.3 million goodwill impairment in the Company\u2019s space division after the stop work order on the Company\u2019s BADGER systems built for the SCAR program. AeroVironment also reported that the U.S. Space Force had terminated the Company\u2019s contract concerning the SCAR program, and as a result, it would have to \u201crecompete\u201d for the SCAR program. On this news, the price of AeroVironment shares declined by $13.84 per share, or approximately 6%, from $221.57 per share on March 10, 2026 to close at $207.73 on March 11, 2026.<\/p>

\nOn March 31, 2026, the U.S. Space Force announced its decision to diversify suppliers and rely on less costly commercial, off-the-shelf solutions in connection with its work to upgrade the SCN, instead of pursuing another single-vendor bespoke solution.<\/p>
