Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action lawsuit that has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased or acquired the securities of VinFast Auto Ltd. (“VinFast” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: VFS): (a) pursuant and/or traceable to the Offering Documents issued in connection with the merger consummated on August 14, 2023 by and among the Company, Black Spade, and Nuevo Tech Limited (the “Merger”); and/or (b) between August 15, 2023 and April 17, 2024, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than June 11, 2024. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn’t require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.
According to the Complaint, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) VinFast lacked sufficient capital to execute its purported growth strategy; (ii) VinFast would be unable to meet its 2023 delivery targets; and (iii) accordingly, VinFast had overstated the strength of its business model and operational capabilities, as well as its post-Merger business and/or financial prospects.
On January 18, 2024, VinFast issued a press release revealing that it delivered a total of 34,855 Electric Vehicles in 2023, falling well short of its annual deliveries target of 40,000-50,000 units. In response, several market analysts commented on the Company’s disappointing announcement. For example, Barrons published an article entitled “Vietnamese Carmaker Vinfast Misses 2023 EVs Sales Target”, and noted that VinFast was “hoping to compete with EV giants such as Tesla” and was “listed on the Nasdaq in August, hitting headlines around the world as its valuation skyrocketed and then crashed.”
On this news, VinFast’s ordinary share price fell $0.13 per share, or 2.25%, to close at $5.64 per share on January 18, 2024.
Then, on April 17, 2024, VinFast published a press release announcing its first quarter 2024 (“Q1 2024”) financial results. The press release stated that the Company delivered 9,689 EVs in the first quarter of 2024 despite setting a target of 100,000 EVs to be delivered in 2024.
On this news, VinFast’s ordinary share price dropped $0.35, or approximately 11%, to close at $2.72 on April 17, 2024.
