On February 25, 2026, Driven Brands disclosed in a Form 8-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that “the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, after consultation with the Company’s management, concluded there were material errors” in the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2023 and December 28, 2024 as well as quarterly and year-to-date periods.  Additionally, the SEC filing states that those financial statement “should not be relied upon and required restatement” and that “the Report of our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the financial statements and internal control over financial reporting should not be relied upon.”

Following this news, the price of Driven Brands common stock declined $5.01 per share, about 30%, to close at $11.60 per share on February 25, 2026.

The complaint alleges, that throughout the Class Period, “Defendants misled investors as to the Company’s financial condition and the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting through a series of inaccurate financial reports” filed with the SEC. Further, the complaint alleges, “among many other errors, the Company’s balance sheets contained an unreconciled cash balance originating in 2023 which resulted in revenue and cash being overstated in 2023 and 2024, and operating expenses being understated over the same period.”

Following this news, “Driven Brands’ stock declined nearly 40% on this news, from a close of $16.61 per share on February 24, 2026, to an opening price of $9.99 per share on February 25, 2026.”
