​The PureCycle class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) PureCycle’s first commercial scale recycling facility (the “Ironton Facility”) experienced a full plant power outage on August 7, 2023; and (ii) there was a risk of additional failures resulting from the August 7, 2023 power outage.

The PureCycle class action lawsuit further alleges that on September 13, 2023, PureCycle disclosed that “[o]n August 7, 2023, the Ironton Facility experienced a full plant power outage resulting from a severe weather impact to a third party power supplier.  Operations resumed but, on September 3, 2023, the Ironton Facility experienced a seal system failure in a key operation . . . . The seal failure required the Ironton Facility to halt operations to assess any damage and the root cause of the seal failure.”  According to the complaint, PureCycle further revealed that it is “unable to eliminate the risk that the restart [procedures] will be unsuccessful, or whether other failures resulting from the August 7, 2023 power outage may be discovered in the future.”  The PureCycle class action lawsuit alleges that on this news, the price of PureCycle fell more than 18%.
