Key Dates and Disclosure Events Shareholders Need to Know
NEW YORK, April 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP encourages investors who suffered losses in Driven Brands Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: DRVN) to contact the firm.

Driven Brands shares collapsed nearly 40%, falling from $16.61 to $9.99 per share, a loss of $6.62 per share, after the Company disclosed sweeping financial restatements spanning nearly three years. The window to apply for lead plaintiff closes on May 8, 2026.
May 9, 2023: The Class Period Opens With Overstated Results
The lawsuit chronicles a pattern of alleged misrepresentations that began with the Company's Q1 2023 10-Q filing, which touted revenue growth of 20% to $562 million. The complaint contends this filing contained errors tied to an unreconciled cash balance that inflated revenue and understated operating expenses. This filing, and each subsequent quarterly and annual report through Q3 2025, allegedly carried forward these embedded inaccuracies.
February 28, 2024: Annual Report Compounds Prior Errors
The Company filed its amended 2023 10-K/A, reporting $2.304 billion in total net revenue for fiscal year 2023. The securities action alleges this annual figure incorporated the same and potentially further unreconciled cash errors, meaning investors received a full-year financial picture built on a flawed foundation.
November 5, 2025: Management Certifies Controls as Effective
In the Q3 2025 10-Q, the Company's senior leadership certified that disclosure controls and procedures were "designed effectively" as of September 27, 2025. As detailed in the action, this certification proved false when, less than four months later, management conceded that internal controls were not effective as of December 27, 2025.
February 25, 2026: The Restatement Announcement
Instead of releasing fourth-quarter earnings as scheduled, the Company filed a Form 8-K disclosing that its Audit Committee had concluded there were material errors across at least ten categories of financial reporting. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP stated that prior financial statements and internal controls should not be relied upon.

"Timely disclosure of material developments is fundamental to fair and efficient markets. The chronology in this case raises important questions about why errors spanning multiple fiscal years were not identified and corrected sooner." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.
