(“AeroVironment” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AVAV) securities between June 29, 2021 and December 7, 2021, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

On December 7, 2021, AeroVironment released its second quarter earnings, and disclosed that it was reducing its fiscal year 2022 revenue guidance from between $560 and $580 million down to between $440 and $460 million. AeroVironment claimed the revision was due to supply chain constraints, extended procurement cycles, and staffing shortages.
On this news, AeroVironment’s stock price fell $21.97, or 27.5%, to close at $57.98 per share on December 7, 2021, thereby injuring investors.
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’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) AeroVironment had been experiencing a decline in sales in all of their core businesses; (2) AeroVironment’s projections were inaccurate and that Defendants lacked the necessary internal controls over financial reporting to develop accurate projections; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
