Faruqi & Faruqi Reminds AEVEX Corp. Investors to Act Quickly

New York, New York, Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, has issued a reminder to AEVEX Corp. investors who purchased securities between April 17, 2026, and June 4, 2026, or acquired Class A common stock through the company's initial public offering (IPO) documents, to contact the firm regarding potential legal action. The deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action is October 20, 2026.

According to the firm, AEVEX Corp., a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), and certain executives are alleged to have violated federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the company and its executives failed to disclose a pre-arranged plan between Madison, a major shareholder, and the underwriter defendants to prematurely waive the 180-day lock-up agreement. This agreement was intended to prevent Madison from selling its Class A common stock or converting its Class B shares and LLC Units into Class A common stock for public sale until at least October 13, 2026.

The lock-up agreement was intended to maintain market stability and prevent the sudden sale of shares, which could have led to a significant drop in the company's stock price. However, the complaint alleges that the 180-day lock-up restrictions were waived prematurely, allowing Madison to conduct a secondary public offering (SPO) shortly after the IPO. As a result, Madison is alleged to have earned over $200 million, while the underwriter defendants received an additional $8 million in fees.

Following the after-market filing of the June 1, 2026, registration statement, which revealed the company's intention to conduct an SPO and the premature waiver of the lock-up restrictions, AEVEX's Class A common stock fell by approximately 16% against the prior day's closing price, resulting in a loss of over $700 million in market capitalization. On June 5, 2026, the stock price fell further by 7%, erasing another $200 million in market capitalization.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, has filed the lawsuit on behalf of investors and is encouraging anyone with information about AEVEX's conduct to come forward. Investors who purchased AEVEX securities during the class period are urged to contact the firm to discuss their legal rights and potential claims. The firm can be reached by calling 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class, who is adequate and typical of class members and directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Participation in the lawsuit and the potential for recovery do not depend on the decision to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.
