Evolv Technologies Holdings, Inc. (EVLV) Investigation:
The investigation focuses on Evolv’s claims regarding the effectiveness of its AI-based weapons detection technology for security screening. Evolv has claimed that unlike conventional walk-through metal detectors, “our products use advanced sensors, artificial intelligence software and cloud services to reliably detect guns, improvised explosives, and large knives[.]” On Nov. 2, 2022, BBC News reported that “documents shared with BBC News by research firm IPVM suggests they may fail to detect certain types of knives, as well as some bombs and components.” BBC further reported that: according to a private report obtained by IPVM, Evolv’s ability to detect large knives scored just 1.3 out of 3 and “in 24 walkthroughs, Evolv Express failed to detect large knives 42% of the time.” According to the BBC, Evolv did not dispute the private report’s conclusions.
“We’re focused on investors’ losses and whether Evolv may have put sales over safety and misled investors about the reliability of its technology,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation. “At this time when schools and sports arenas are desperately looking for solutions to the weapons problem, it is not appropriate to place hype and profits above the well-being of students, teachers and spectators.”
