Blink Charging (BLNK) Securities Class Action:

The complaint alleges that Blink and senior management misrepresented and concealed that: (1) many of Blink's EV charging stations are damaged, neglected, non-functional, inaccessible, or non-accessible; (2) Blink's purported partnerships and expansions with other companies were overstated; and, (3) the purported growth of Blink's network was overstated.

Investors began to learn the truth, according to the complaint, on Aug. 19, 2020 when Culper Research accused Blink of vastly exaggerating the size of its EV charging network "in order to siphon money from the pockets of investors to insiders." Culper's report estimates that just 15% of Blink's claimed 15,000 charging stations are functional, observes that, since 2014, the company's compensation expense of $44 million is more than double its $18 million in cumulative revenues, and notes "[o]ur on-the-ground visits to 242 stations at 88 locations across the U.S. revealed a plethora of neglected, abused, non-functional, or otherwise missing chargers."

The same day, another scathing report was published by Mariner Research Group. Among other things, Mariner questions whether Blink's CEO had ties to alleged pump and dumpers and penny stock dealers, and concludes, in part, "[w]e believe that the management team and underlying asset base are a significant cause for concern."

In response to these reports, Blink shares traded sharply lower.

"We're focused on investor losses and proving Blink misrepresented the number of its functioning EV charging stations while insiders enriched themselves at investors' expense," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
