Danimer Scientific, Inc. (NYSE: DNMR) Securities Fraud Action:
The complaint alleges that Danimer made misrepresentations and omissions concerning its production of polyhydroxyalkanoate ("PHA") – a biodegradeable alternative to petrochemical-based plastics, which the company sells under its proprietary Nodax brand for usage in water bottles, straws, and food containers.

The truth emerged over a series of disclosures, beginning on Mar. 20, 2021, when the Wall Street Journal questioned whether Nodax's breaks down far more quickly than fossil-fuel plastics, finding "many claims about Nodax's are exaggerated and misleading." One plastics expert labeled Danimer's claims about Nodax's biodegradability as "not accurate" and as "greenwashing." 

Next, on Apr. 22, 2021 analyst Spruce Point Capital Management published a scathing report noting: red flags; various inconsistencies about Danimer's historical and present claims about the size of its operations; Nodax's makeup and degradability; and the company's expected profitability. 

Finally, on May 4, 2021 Spruce Point published a follow-up report after acquiring documents from Kentucky's Department of Environmental Protection and accused Danimer of "wildly overstating" production figures, pricing, and financial projections.  According to Spruce Point, Danimer materially misreported its monthly PHA production for the Kentucky facility by as much as 100% in some months and its average selling price for Nodax's® was overstated by 30 – 40%.

Each of these revelations sent the price of Danimer shares crashing lower.

"We're focused on investors' losses and proving Danimer misled investors by greenwashing and misstating its true performance metrics," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
