What is this Case About: HUB Cyber Security Ltd. (HUBC) Made Misleading Statements in its Offering Documents Regarding its Business Prospects
According to the complaint, Mount Rainier was a special purpose acquisition company that merged with HUB Cyber Security (Israel) Ltd. The Company consummated the merger with Mount Rainier on February 28, 2023, Mount Rainier became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company’s shares closed at $4.99 per share. On March 1, 2023, the combined Company’s securities began trading on NASDAQ, with a first post-merger closing stock price of $1.59 per share. After a series of disclosures, on July 5, 2023, the price of HUB’s stock closed at $0.3918 per share – a 75.26% decline from its initial closing price.
The complaint alleges that the Offering Documents and defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) PIPE financing in connection with the merger was not committed; (ii) HUB would not be led by Legacy Hub’s then-current management team, including defendant Moshe; (iii) the Company had downplayed the full scope and severity of deficiencies in its compliance controls and procedures, including its disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting; (iv) the Company overstated its remediation of, and/or ability to remediate, the foregoing deficiencies; (v) accordingly, the Company had hundreds of thousands of dollars of unexplained expenses incurred, and/or funds misappropriated or otherwise fraudulently obtained, by a senior officer of the Company; (vi) the foregoing increased the risk that the Company would be unable to timely file one or more of its periodic financial reports with the SEC, as required by the NASDAQ’s listing rules; (vii) as a result, the Company was also at an increased risk of being delisted from the NASDAQ;
