The lawsuit alleges that (1) POET Technologies misrepresented its tax status due to it likely being deemed as a passive foreign investment company (\u201cPFIC\u201d) under U.S. tax laws which, if not properly reported by each U.S. stockholder, would have negative tax implications; (2) the foregoing tax issue would, if discovered, make POET a less attractive investment than it would otherwise be, thus threatening POET\u2019s valuation; and (3) Defendant Thomas Mika (the Company\u2019s Executive Vice President and CFO), despite affirming that he was not violating a non-disclosure agreement, in fact violated a business agreement by speaking about POET business agreements in a public interview, thus endangering POET business prospects.<\/p><p>\nOn April 14, 2026, Wolfpack Research issued a report entitled \u201cWe Believe POET is An Obvious Stock Promote, Has Created An IRS Nightmare: US Holders Have Until April 15<sup>th<\/sup> To Act.\u201d The release state that \u201cPOET set US investors on a collision course with the IRS by accumulating so much cash through dilution, and generating so little operating revenue that our analysis, corroborated by multiple experts, show they qualify as a Passive Foreign Investment Company\u2014or a PFIC\u201d which would make the stack an unattractive investment to investors. On this news, the price of POET shares declined by $0.59 per share, or approximately 8%, from $7.30 per share on April 13, 2026 to close at $6.71 on April 14, 2026.<\/p><p>\nOn April 27, 2026, the Company issued a press release entitled \u201cPOET Technologies Provides Purchase Order Update.\u201d The release disclosed \u201cthe cancellation of all purchase orders received by the Company from Celestial AI, including the ones for initial production units first disclosed by the Company in a press release on April 25, 2023. Marvell Semiconductor Inc., which acquired Celestial AI, provided written notice of the cancellation to the Company on April 23, 2026. As the basis for the cancellation, Marvell indicated that the Company had made disclosures of information related to the Purchase Order and shipping information in contravention of its confidentiality obligations.\u201d On this news, the price of POET shares declined by $7.15 per share, or approximately 47.4%, from $15.10 per share on April 24, 2026 to close at $7.95 on April 27, 2026.<\/p><p class=\"bwalignc\">\n[<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kmllp.com%2Fcases-investigations%2Fpoet-technologies-inc&amp;esheet=54534868&amp;newsitemid=20260512412863&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=CLICK+HERE+TO+LEARN+MORE+ABOUT+THE+CLASS+ACTION&amp;index=3&amp;md5=ad09eb5b43f20963a22403716fd19bc9\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION<\/a>]<\/p><p>\n<b>What Should I Do?<\/b><\/p><p>\nIf you purchased or otherwise acquired POET securities, have information, or would like to learn more about this investigation, please contact <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kmllp.com%2Fprofessionals%2FLauren-Molinaro&amp;esheet=54534868&amp;newsitemid=20260512412863&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Lauren+Molinaro&amp;index=4&amp;md5=c187bec96f38c512b4a64fc23f6410ac\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Lauren Molinaro<\/a> of <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kmllp.com%2F&amp;esheet=54534868&amp;newsitemid=20260512412863&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Kirby+McInerney+LLP&amp;index=5&amp;md5=de4f6d05647df51b745d3f7c53199675\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Kirby McInerney LLP<\/a> by email at <a  href=\"mailto:investigations@kmllp.com\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">investigations@kmllp.com<\/a>, or fill out the contact form below, to discuss your rights or interests with respect to these matters at no cost.<\/p><p class=\"bwalignc\">\n[<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fsecuritiesleadplaintiff.com%2F&amp;esheet=54534868&amp;newsitemid=20260512412863&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=WHAT+IS+A+SECURITIES+CLASS+ACTION%3F&amp;index=6&amp;md5=f16c13ea854066b9694c6dafeb9d5eaa\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">WHAT IS A SECURITIES CLASS ACTION?<\/a>]<\/p><p>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kmllp.com%2F&amp;esheet=54534868&amp;newsitemid=20260512412863&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Kirby+McInerney+LLP&amp;index=7&amp;md5=b0308f3a3748d28a423d1ccf7adc3ae2\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Kirby McInerney LLP<\/a> is a New York-based plaintiffs\u2019 law firm concentrating in securities, antitrust, whistleblower, and consumer litigation.
