Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

The report introduces a formal legal risk with potential damages and settlement costs. Historically, securities lawsuits can trigger near-term volatility and additional reserves; FCEL's Sept 2 decline underscores sensitivity to legal news. The major near-term catalyst is the Nov 10 lead-plaintiff deadline, which could shape litigation trajectory and costs.
