Lordstown Motors Investor Alert: Kaplan Fox Investigates Potential Securities Fraud at Lordstown Motors Corp.


NEW YORK, March 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP (www.kaplanfox.com) is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Lordstown Motors Corp. (“Lordstown” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: RIDE).

On March 12, 2021, Hindenburg Research published a report entitled “The Lordstown Motors Mirage: Fake Orders, Undisclosed Production Hurdles, And A Prototype Inferno.” Hindenburg alleges, among other things that “Lordstown is an electric vehicle SPAC with no revenue and no sellable product, which we believe has misled investors on both its demand and production capabilities.” Hindenburg also alleges that “[t]he company has consistently pointed to its book of 100,000 pre-orders as proof of deep demand for its proposed EV truck” although “[Hindenburg’s] conversations with former employees, business partners and an extensive document review show that the company’s orders are largely fictitious and used as a prop to raise capital and confer legitimacy.”

Following the issuance of the Hindenburg Research report, Lordstown’s shares fell $2.93 per share, about 16.5%, to close at $14.78 per share on March 12, 2021.
