What Happened?
On November 14, 2023, before market hours, Net Power released its third quarter 2023 financial results, disclosing that due to 'tightness in the global supply chain,' it would be 'incorporating a 12-month cushion into [its] expected schedule' for its first utility-scale plant, Project Permian. The Company stated that it was 'now expecting to achieve initial power generation sometime between the second half of 2027 and first half of 2028,' compared to the initial schedule of having the plant operational by 2026.
On this news, Net Power's stock price fell $2.47, or 18.5%, to close at $10.85 per share on November 14, 2023, thereby injuring investors.
Then, on March 10, 2025, Net Power released its fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results, disclosing the Company had 'finalized the Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) for Project Permian' but the 'cost estimate was significantly higher than expected and, as a result, the Company has paused long-lead releases for the project.' Specifically, the Company revealed it is 'estimating total installed cost will be $1.7 billion to $2 billion.'
On this news, Net Power's stock price fell $2.18, or 31.5%, to close at $4.75 per share on March 10, 2025.
Then, on April 15, 2025, Net Power announced that its President and Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer would depart the Company.
On this news, Net Power's stock price fell $0.13, or 5.8%, to close at $2.13 per share on April 16, 2025, thereby injuring investors further.
What Is The Lawsuit About?
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Net Power was unlikely to complete Project Permian on schedule, and the project was likely to be significantly more expensive than Defendants had represented, because of, inter alia, supply chain issues and numerous site- and region-specific challenges; (2) accordingly, Defendants' projections regarding the time and capital needed to complete Project Permian were unrealistic; (3) the increased time and capital needed to complete Project Permian were likely to have a significant negative impact on the Company's business and financial results; and (4) as a result, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
If you purchased or otherwise acquired NET Power securities between June 9, 2023 and March 7, 2025, the deadline to seek appointment as the lead plaintiff in the securities fraud class action is June 17, 2025.

Nasdaq tops NYSE in 2025 IPO race with $21.3 billion in listings
Nasdaq handily beat the New York Stock Exchange in stock market listings during the first half of 2025, buoyed by blockbuster initial public offerings of big names like CoreWeave CRWV.O and Chime CHYM.O and a jump in proceeds raised via special purpose acquisition companies. IPOs at Nasdaq NDAQ.O, including those of blank-check acquisition companies, raised about $21.3 billion during the first half, compared with $8.7 billion for flotations at the NYSE ICE.N, according to data from Dealogic. Excluding SPAC volumes, traditional IPOs on the Nasdaq raised roughly $9 billion from 79 deals, while 15 IPOs on NYSE raised about $7.8 billion. Last year during the same period, Nasdaq IPOs had raised about $6.1 billion, while shares worth $11.5 billion were sold from IPOs on NYSE. Stock market launches dropped off sharply during the April market selloff that was driven by erratic U.S. trade policy, but Wall Street has since recovered and companies are starting to rush back to seek listings. "We felt this year had an opportunity to be good - and then we had enormous volatility to start the year, so companies across the board had to go pencils down," Nasdaq President Nelson Griggs told Reuters. "Clearly now, with the market rebound we've had after a very strong May, companies are back having those discussions. If the next round (of companies) does well, I think you're going to really see some excitement for the fall," Griggs added. More financial markets: Stocks usually rise by 10% a year. Those days may be over. The Nasdaq Composite .IXIC and S&P 500 .SPX reached record closing highs on Monday, capping their best quarter in more than a year. With its first-half listings performance, Nasdaq maintained its stranglehold at the top of the rankings. The exchange operator has led the IPO rankings ahead of NYSE during the better part of the past decade, including the last six years, according to Dealogic. The market share battle between the two top U.S. exchanges and the improving outlook for stock market listings follows an arid spell for capital markets that lasted for more than two years. Several big names, including medical supply giant Medline and design software maker Figma are gearing up for IPOs later this year. Liquefied natural gas exporter Venture Global's VG.N $1.75 billion share sale, CoreWeave's $1.5 billion raise, and cybersecurity firm SailPoint's SAIL.O $1.38 billion offering ranked as the biggest U.S. IPOs during the first half. "The largest IPO YTD is listed on the NYSE. We anticipate that issuance for the remainder of the year will continue to be active," NYSE Global Head of Capital Markets Michael Harris said. High-profile switches Both exchanges have been beneficiaries of large corporations transferring listings from one venue to the other. This year, Nasdaq has received a boost from high-profile switches including those of Kleenex tissue maker Kimberly-Clark KMB.O and content and technology company Thomson Reuters the parent company of Reuters News. Nasdaq said 10 companies with a combined market value of $271.4 billion have switched from the NYSE this year, the best first-half performance for the exchange operator since it started tracking the data from 2006. NYSE was buoyed by transfers from five companies including financial services firm Virtu VIRT.N, CSW Industrials CSW.N, and building products distributor QXO QXO.N in the first half. Some companies that transferred from NYSE to Nasdaq this year cited the attractiveness of the Nasdaq-100 index .NDX - which includes 100 of the most valuable non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq, including the likes of Nvidia NVDA.O and Apple AAPL.O - as being a key driver for the decision to switch. The Nasdaq 100 has risen nearly 8% this year, compared to the S&P 500 .SPX, which has climbed about 5.5% year-to-date. "We realized very quickly that Nasdaq had something that was very compelling - if you are in the Nasdaq and you meet the threshold for the market cap, you can be part of the Nasdaq-100, a great index to be a member of," said Juan Pelaez, vice-president of investor relations at chemicals company Linde LIN.O, which switched to Nasdaq in 2023. The rivalry between Nasdaq and NYSE has played a big role in making U.S. capital markets more attractive for investors, compared to other markets like Hong Kong and London, which currently have only one venue for flotations, according to experts.

Constellation Brands (NYSE:STZ) Misses Q2 Revenue Estimates
Beer, wine, and spirits company Constellation Brands (NYSE:STZ) missed Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q2 CY2025, with sales falling 5.5% year on year to $2.52 billion. Its non-GAAP profit of $3.22 per share was 2.3% below analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy Constellation Brands? Find out in our full research report. Revenue: $2.52 billion vs analyst estimates of $2.55 billion (5.5% year-on-year decline, 1.5% miss) Adjusted EPS: $3.22 vs analyst expectations of $3.29 (2.3% miss) Adjusted EBITDA: $829.7 million vs analyst estimates of $950.5 million (33% margin, 12.7% miss) Management reiterated its full-year Adjusted EPS guidance of $12.75 at the midpoint Operating Margin: 28.4%, down from 35.4% in the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow Margin: 17.7%, up from 11.8% in the same quarter last year Organic Revenue fell 4% year on year (6% in the same quarter last year) Market Capitalization: $28.78 billion With a presence in more than 100 countries, Constellation Brands (NYSE:STZ) is a globally renowned producer and marketer of beer, wine, and spirits. Reviewing a company's long-term sales performance reveals insights into its quality. Any business can have short-term success, but a top-tier one grows for years. With $10.06 billion in revenue over the past 12 months, Constellation Brands is one of the larger consumer staples companies and benefits from a well-known brand that influences purchasing decisions. However, its scale is a double-edged sword because there are only a finite number of major retail partners, placing a ceiling on its growth. For Constellation Brands to boost its sales, it likely needs to adjust its prices, launch new offerings, or lean into foreign markets. As you can see below, Constellation Brands's 3.2% annualized revenue growth over the last three years was sluggish. This shows it failed to generate demand in any major way and is a rough starting point for our analysis. This quarter, Constellation Brands missed Wall Street's estimates and reported a rather uninspiring 5.5% year-on-year revenue decline, generating $2.52 billion of revenue. Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to decline by 6.6% over the next 12 months, a deceleration versus the last three years. This projection doesn't excite us and implies its products will face some demand challenges. Today's young investors likely haven't read the timeless lessons in Gorilla Game: Picking Winners In High Technology because it was written more than 20 years ago when Microsoft and Apple were first establishing their supremacy. But if we apply the same principles, then enterprise software stocks leveraging their own generative AI capabilities may well be the Gorillas of the future. So, in that spirit, we are excited to present our Special Free Report on a profitable, fast-growing enterprise software stock that is already riding the automation wave and looking to catch the generative AI next. When analyzing revenue growth, we care most about organic revenue growth. This metric captures a business's performance excluding one-time events such as mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures as well as foreign currency fluctuations. The demand for Constellation Brands's products has generally risen over the last two years but lagged behind the broader sector. On average, the company's organic sales have grown by 2.8% year on year. In the latest quarter, Constellation Brands's organic sales fell by 4% year on year. This decline was a reversal from its historical levels. We'll keep a close eye on the company to see if this turns into a longer-term trend. The company's revenue and EPS both missed, which is a poor start. However, Constellation Brands did maintain its full-year revenue guidance. Still, this quarter could have been better. The stock remained flat at $165 immediately following the results. Constellation Brands didn't show it's best hand this quarter, but does that create an opportunity to buy the stock right now? What happened in the latest quarter matters, but not as much as longer-term business quality and valuation, when deciding whether to invest in this stock. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it's free. Sign in to access your portfolio
