The Portnoy Law Firm has announced a class action lawsuit on behalf of Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises (B&W) investors who bought securities between November 5, 2025 and March 11, 2026. The lawsuit alleges that B&W made false and misleading statements about its business and financial prospects during this period.

Why it matters

This lawsuit is significant as it could impact B&W's stock price and financial standing if the allegations are proven true. Investors who purchased B&W securities during the class period may be eligible to recover losses through the class action.

The details

The lawsuit alleges that B&W's largest shareholder, BRC Group Holdings, Inc., had close ties to B&W's counterparty in a power generation contract, raising questions about the parties' actual intent. It also claims that Applied Digital, the counterparty, did not actually need the products and services that B&W was supposed to supply under the contract. These factors, the lawsuit argues, suggest B&W's business and financial prospects were overstated.

  • The class period runs from November 5, 2025 to March 11, 2026.
  • Investors have until June 15, 2026 to file a lead plaintiff motion.
