Key Takeaways:
Law firm Scott+Scott reminded investors on May 6 of its ongoing investigation into Via Transportation, Inc. (NYSE: VIA) after the stock fell over 70 percent since its 2025 initial public offering.
"The results validate our AI strategy," CEO Jensen Huang said. The investigation centers on allegations that Via is "a transit services contractor whose revenue is determined almost entirely by driver hours... not by software licenses," according to a March 10 report from Bleeker Street Research.
Via went public in September 2025 at $46 per share. Following the Bleeker Street report, the stock fell 2.6% to $18.51 on March 10 and has traded as low as $13.11 since, representing a more than 70% drop from its IPO price.
The core of the allegations is that Via’s software-centric narrative is misleading and that it improperly books revenue by charging for up to 18 months of software fees upfront, potentially injuring investors who bought into the IPO narrative. Scott+Scott, an international law firm specializing in shareholder and consumer rights, is now investigating these claims on behalf of investors who have suffered losses.
The investigation creates significant legal and financial risk for Via Transportation, with a potential class-action lawsuit threatening its reputation and balance sheet. Investors will be watching for the company's formal response to the allegations and any filings that emerge from the Scott+Scott probe.
