The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Company’s organic growth is plummeting; (2) the Company’s recent, self-lauded acquisitions were overpayments for flawed assets from questionable sources; (3) Aterian’s proposed artificial intelligence software is a flawed product that lacks customer interest; (4) Aterian uses rebate programs and paid or artificial reviews to pump up their product offerings; and (5) as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
On May 4, 2021, Culper Research published a scathing report, entitled “Aterian (ATER): Bought from Felons & Fraudsters, Sold to You.” The research report accused the company of associating and having ties to convicted criminals, overhyping its AIMEE platform, and using “garbage” acquisitions to conceal its “ill-conceived core business.” Culper Research also stated that “Aterian has been largely unsuccessful in convincing other Amazon sellers to pay for its AIMEE AI platform, and at least 5 former employees and a former customer have expressed doubts regarding AIMEE’s legitimacy.”
On this news, Aterian’s stock price fell $3.04 per share, or approximately 24% over the next two trading days to close at $15.72 per share on May 5, 2021, damaging investors.
