DESKTOP METAL’S ALLEGED MISCONDUCT

Desktop Metal manufactures and sells additive manufacturing solutions for engineers, designers, and manufacturers. Its platforms include, among others, Shop System, an affordable turnkey binding jetting platform to bring metal 3D printing to machine and job shops. On February 16, 2021, Desktop Metal acquired EnvisionTEC, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “EnvisionTEC”), a provider of volume production photopolymer 3D printing solutions for end use parts.

On November 8, 2021, Desktop Metal revealed that “[o]n November 4, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Desktop Metal, Inc.…engaged a third party to conduct an independent internal investigation as a result of a whistleblower complaint relating to, among other matters, manufacturing and product compliance practices and procedures with respect to a subset of its photopolymer equipment and materials at its EnvisionTec US LLC facility in Dearborn, Michigan.” Additionally, Desktop Metal disclosed that the Chief Executive Officer of EnvisionTec US LLC had resigned. Following this news, Desktop Metal’s stock fell $0.39, or 4%, to close at $8.81 per share on November 9, 2021.

Then, on November 15, 2021, Desktop Metal stated that it would notify the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of “compliance issues with certain shipments of EnvisionTEC’s Flexcera dental resins and its PCA4000 curing box.” Following this news, Desktop Metal’s stock fell $1.19, or 15%, to close at $6.83 per share on November 16, 2021.

WHAT CAN I DO?

Desktop Metal investors may, no later than February 22, 2022, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class through Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP or other counsel, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP encourages Desktop Metal investors who have suffered significant losses to contact the firm directly to acquire more information.

WHO CAN BE A LEAD PLAINTIFF?

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision of whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff.
