The Allegations: Robbins LLP is Investigating the Allegations that Evolv Technologies Holdings, Inc. (EVLV) Overstated the Efficacy of its Products

On or around July 19, 2021, Evolv went public through a SPAC merger with Newhold Investment Corp. Prior to the SPAC Merger, Newhold traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “NHIC”.

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants failed to disclose that: (1) Evolv materially overstated the efficacy of its products; (2) the lack of effectiveness of Evolv’s products with regard to detecting knives and guns led to an increased risk of undetected weapons entering locations such as schools; and (3) Evolv deceived the general public, its customers, and its investors regarding the effectiveness of its products. When the truth came to light, Evolv's stock price declined.
