According to the filed complaint, defendants failed to disclose that, at the time of Velocity’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), the Company’s non-performing loans had dramatically increased in size (as measured by both the amount of unpaid principal balance and as a percentage of the Company’s overall loan portfolio) from the figures provided in the Registration Statement and Prospectus that Velocity had issued in connection with the IPO. Further, defendants failed to provide any information to investors regarding the potential impact of the novel coronavirus on Velocity’s business and operations, despite the fact that the international spread of the virus had already been confirmed at the time of the IPO. The failure to disclose the substantial and growing proportion of the Company’s loans that were non-performing and/or on non-accrual status as of the IPO rendered the statements contained in the Registration Statement and Prospectus regarding the quality of the Company’s loan portfolio and underwriting practices materially misleading.
