TuSimple Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: TSP) Investigation:

The investigation focuses on TuSimple’s repeated assurances that executive officers, directors, holders of more than 5% of the company’s voting securities, will not be permitted to engage in related party transactions with TuSimple without the prior consent of its audit committee.

TuSimple’s assurances came into serious question on Oct. 30, 2022, when The Wall Street Journal reported that the FBI and SEC are investigating whether the company and its CEO (Xiaodi Hou) violated the securities laws by failing to disclose the company’s relationship with Hydron Inc., a PRC-based startup that says it is developing autonomous hydrogen-powered trucks. The WSJ went on to report that the FBI and SEC are probing whether TuSimple improperly financed and transferred technology developed in the U.S. to Hydron “and whether that action defrauded TuSimple investors by sending valuable technology to an overseas adversary[.]”

Then, on Oct.31, 2022, TuSimple announced: (1) it fired Hou and removed him from his position as Chairman of the Board in connection with an internal investigation; (2) its co-founder and former Chairman and Executive Chairman (Mo Chen), who holds a greater-than-10% interest in TuSimple, is a founder, director, and CEO of Hydron; (3) Chen engaged in a secret related party transaction between TuSimple and Hydron without first obtaining the consent of TuSimple’s audit committee; and, (4) during 2022 the company likely shared confidential information with Hydron and its partners before entering into non-disclosure and cooperation agreements.

These events sent the price of TuSimple shares crashing 45% lower on Oct. 31, 2022, wiping out over $500 million of shareholder value.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and the extent to which TuSimple improperly shared its intellectual property,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
