Fisker Inc. (NYSE: FSR) investigation:

The investigation focuses on Fisker’s reported financial performance and internal controls over financial reporting.

Fisker had been scheduled to report its Q3 2023 financial results before markets opened on Nov. 8, 2023. Instead, that day the company announced that it is delaying the earnings release until after markets close on Nov. 13, 2023. Fisker blamed the delay on the unexplained departure of its, now former, Chief Accounting Officer on Oct. 27, 2023 and the appointment of a replacement effective Nov. 6, 2023.

Then, on Nov. 13, 2023, Fisker released dismal Q3 2023 results, reporting that it lost $91 million in the third quarter and generated revenues of only $71.8 million, well below analysts’ expectations. In addition, the company failed to provide production guidance. It further revealed that material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting prevented it from timely filing its quarterly report with the SEC.

Most recently, on Nov. 20, 2023, The Wall Street Journal reported that Fisker has lost another Chief Accounting Officer. According to the WSJ, Florus Beuting, who was named to the post in early Nov., resigned from the company last Tuesday (a day after Fisker reported Q3 results) and noted that Fisker has yet to publicly disclose Beuting’s departure.

These events caused FSR shares to decline sharply.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and are investigating the accuracy of Fisker’s statements concerning its internal controls over financial reporting” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
