Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter LLP is reminding investors who purchased Franklin BSP Realty Trust, Inc. (FBRT) securities between November 2024 and February 2026 of an upcoming April 27, 2026 deadline to file as lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges FBRT made materially false and misleading statements about the company's prospects and ability to maintain its dividend.

Why it matters

This lawsuit represents an ongoing legal battle over alleged securities fraud by a real estate investment trust, which could have significant financial implications for impacted shareholders who lost money on FBRT stock.

The details

The lawsuit claims FBRT recklessly overstated the company's prospects and its ability to maintain its $0.355 dividend. On February 11, 2026, FBRT reported a significant decline in quarterly net income and earnings per share, disclosing that it had 'taken longer to resolve and sell the real estate than [it] originally planned' and had 'reset the quarterly dividend' to 'stabilize [its] book value'. This news caused FBRT's stock price to fall 14.2% on February 12, 2026.

  • The class period covers November 5, 2024 to February 11, 2026.
  • The deadline to file as lead plaintiff is April 27, 2026.
