Investor Alert: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Investigates DeFi Technologies (NASDAQ: DEFT)
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a prominent national securities law firm, is actively investigating potential legal claims on behalf of investors in DeFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: DEFT). The firm is urging investors who may have suffered losses from May 12, 2025, to November 14, 2025, to reach out for a consultation regarding their options. The deadline for investors to seek lead plaintiff status in a federal securities class action against DeFi Technologies is January 30, 2026.
Background of the Investigation
The investigation concerns allegations that DeFi Technologies and its executives made false and misleading statements regarding the company’s business performance. Key points of concern include:
- Delays in executing the company's DeFi arbitrage strategy, critical for revenue generation.
- Underreporting of competition from other digital asset trading (DAT) companies.
- Failure to meet previously stated revenue guidance for fiscal year 2025.
- Downplaying the significant negative impact of these issues on the company’s financial performance.
Recent Developments Impacting Stock Price
On November 6, 2025, DeFi Technologies released a press statement discussing an arbitrage trade executed by DeFi Alpha. The announcement noted that DAT companies had absorbed a considerable share of arbitrage opportunities, leading to a decline in the company's share price by $0.13, or 7.43%, closing at $1.62.
Subsequently, on November 14, 2025, DeFi Technologies reported its third-quarter financial results, revealing a dramatic revenue drop of nearly 20%, which fell significantly short of market expectations. The company revised its revenue forecast for 2025 from $218.6 million down to approximately $116.6 million, attributing this cutback to delays caused by the rise of DAT companies. Following these announcements, DeFi Technologies' stock suffered further losses, dropping by $0.40, or 27.59%, to close at $1.05 on November 17, 2025.
Legal Proceedings and Next Steps
The class action suit aims to secure compensation for those affected by alleged misleading communications from DeFi Technologies. The role of lead plaintiff is critical, as it allows direct oversight of the litigation process. Investors wishing to take an active role can pursue this status through their chosen counsel, while those opting to remain passive as class members will not jeopardize their rights to any settlement.
