XL Fleet Investor Alert: Kaplan Fox Investigates Potential Securities Fraud at XL Fleet Corp.

NEW YORK, March 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP (www.kaplanfox.com) is investigating claims on behalf of investors of XL Fleet Corp. (“XL” or the “Company”) (NYSE: XL).

On March 3, 2021, Muddy Waters Research published a report entitled “XL Fleet Corp. (NYSE: XL): More SPAC Trash,” alleging that salespeople “were pressured to inflate their sales pipelines materially in order to mislead XL’s board and investors” and that former salespeople and other employees also told Muddy Waters that “XL misleads its customers about performance and savings; and, that due to these exaggerations, customer reorder rates are in reality quite low.” Further, Muddy Waters alleges that according to former employees “at least 18 of 33 customers XL featured were inactive.” Muddy Waters also alleges that XL has “weak technology” and that “XL’s announcement of future class 7-8 upfits seems highly promotional” because the task is “too technologically complex for XL engineers to deliver on the promised timeline.”

Following this news, XL’s stock price fell $2.09 per share, more than 13%, to close at $13.86 per share on March 3, 2021 on heavy trading volume.
