What is this all about?

Enovix designs, develops, and manufactures silicone-anode lithium ion batteries using proprietary 3D cell architecture, which the Company claims allow its batteries to achieve higher energy density. On July 15, 2021, Enovix became a publicly traded company by merging with a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), after being acquired by the Rodgers Silicon Valley Acquisition Corp. (“RSVAC”) on July 14, 2021.

At the time Enovix went public, the Company’s only manufacturing line was beset by defects and technical problems that prevented the Enovix from manufacturing its batteries at scale, despite then CEO, Harrold Rust’s stating that the Company was focused on producing for “mass-market applications.”

Throughout the class period, defendants overstated Enovix’s ability to produce batteries at scale, touting the Company’s “meaningful progress” in scaling up its manufacturing facility, and its being positioned to deliver batteries ahead of competitors, despite its continued manufacturing issues.

On November 1, 2022, Enovix released a Letter to Shareholders for Q3 2022 in which it reported third quarter revenue of only eight thousand dollars, despite prior promises of delivery commercial products on a meaningful scale. Additionally, the Q3 letter disclosed that Enovix was pivoting and prioritizing its next generation manufacturing line, altering previously announced commercialization timelines.

Following these disclosures, Enovix shares plummeted 44% from its October 31, 2022 closing price to when the market closed on November 2, 2022.

Then on January 3, 2023, Enovix held a “special presentation to shareholders” during which new CEO Thurman Rodgers disclosed further issues with both production lines, with one line “doing less than 10% of what it should be doing,” and that revenues investors had previously been told to expect in early 2024 were no longer possible due to buildout delays.

On this news, Enovix shares plunged 41% in intraday trading on January 4, 2023.
