Arcimoto is purportedly engaged in the business of manufacturing ultra-efficient three-wheeled electric vehicles.  The Company's products include the Fun Utility Vehicle ("FUV").

The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations, and compliance policies.  Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the preorders of Arcimoto's FUVs were fabricated or never completed, with only 19 units delivered out of an alleged preorder of 422; (ii) Arcimoto failed to disclose to customers that nearly 100% of its vehicles delivered were under safety recall; (iii) Arcimoto's largest customer, R-Key-Moto, was an undisclosed related party owned by insider FOD Capital, LLC; (iv) Arcimoto's partnership with HULA was an undisclosed related party transaction; and (v) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

On March 23, 2021, Bonitas Research ("Bonitas") published a short-seller report addressing Arcimoto.  In the report, Bonitas alleged that Arcimoto fabricated pre-orders to generate fake demand, only delivered on 19 of the 422 alleged pre-orders since 2018, sold 13 of these 19 pre-orders to an undisclosed related party, and failed to notify customers that Arcimoto had filed a total production recall notice with the the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. 

Following publication of the Bonitas report, Arcimoto's stock price fell $1.10 per share, or approximately 6.56%, to close at $15.67 per share on March 23, 2021.
