Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP, a leading securities law firm, has announced an investigation into Coastal Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: CCB) for potential securities fraud. The investigation stems from a significant drop in the company's stock price following the revelation of a substantial credit loss related to its banking as a service segment.
On July 30, 2026, Coastal Financial reported its Q2 2026 financial results, which showed a net loss of $42.1 million, or $(2.76) per diluted common share, compared to a net income of $12 million, or $0.78 per diluted common share, in the same period the previous year. The primary driver of the loss was a $68.8 million credit expense tied to an unnamed CCBX partner relationship. This news led to a sharp decline in Coastal Financial's stock price, with the company's shares falling $30.75 per share, or 43.5%, from a closing price of $70.66 per share on July 29, 2026, to $39.91 per share on July 30, 2026.
