The Evolv class action lawsuit further alleges that on November 2, 2022, IPVM released a report entitled "BBC Exposes Evolv with IPVM Research" which stated that: "A BBC report based on 1,000+ pages of documents obtained by IPVM has exposed security screening manufacturer Evolv for deceptive marketing and colluding with NCS4, a public entity, to hide test results showing failures at weapons screening." On the same day, the complaint further alleges that BBC released an article entitled "Manchester Arena's weapon scanning tech questioned." On this news, the price of Evolv stock fell more than 8% over two trading sessions, according to the complaint.

Then, the Evolv class action lawsuit further alleges that on May 23, 2023 BBC News published an article entitled "AI scanner used in hundreds of US schools misses knives" which stated that "[a] security firm that sells AI weapons scanners to schools is facing fresh questions about its technology after a student was attacked with a knife that the $3.7 [million] system failed to detect." On this news, the price of Evolv stock fell nearly 8%, according to the complaint.

Thereafter, on October 12, 2023, Evolv disclosed that "the U.S. Federal Trade Commission had requested information about certain aspects of its marketing practices," the complaint alleges. On this news, the price of Evolv stock fell more than 13%, according to the complaint.

Subsequently, on October 25, 2023, IPVM released an article entitled "Why We Believe Evolv Express Is Not Actually Intelligent" which stated that Evolv Express "struggles to differentiate small knives from cell phones and guns from laptops." On this news, the price of Evolv stock fell, according to the complaint.

On this news, the price of Evolv stock fell nearly 16%, according to the complaint.

Finally, on March 13, 2024, the complaint further alleges that the BBC released an article entitled "AI weapons scanner backtracks on UK testing claims" which stated that "Evolv told BBC News it had altered its claims about UK testing to 'better reflect the process taken.'" On this news, the price of Evolv stock fell, according to the complaint.
