Important deadline: Investors who purchased or acquired PureCycle securities during the Class Period may, no later than November 28, 2023, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class. 

The complaint alleges that in early 2023, PureCycle claimed that it was finalizing construction and commissioning at its first commercial scale recycling facility (the "Ironton Facility"), "which is expected to have capacity of approximately 107 million pounds/year when fully operational."

The lawsuit alleges that the truth about the company emerged on September 13, 2023, after the market closed, when PureCycle filed a Form 8-K with the SEC disclosing that its Ironton Facility experienced a full plant power outage on August 7, 2023, which required the Ironton Facility to halt operations. PureCycle further disclosed that it replaced a seal that purportedly failed as a result of the power outage, and initiated facility restart procedures on September 11, 2023. Following this news, PureCycle's stock price fell $1.395, or 18.4%, to close at $6.18 per share on September 14, 2023.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. Communicating with any counsel is not necessary to participate or share in any recovery achieved in this case. Any member of the purported class may move the Court to serve as a lead plaintiff through counsel of his/her choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an inactive class member.
