What is Johnson Fistel investigating? On April 6, 2022, Hindenburg released a short report regarding Mullen’s operations. Among other claims, Hindenburg stated the following:
- “Mullen recently press released an update on its battery testing, sending its stock soaring 145% in a day. In reality, the ‘news’ appears to be a rehash of testing the company had already announced in 2020.”
- “Mullen apparently misrepresented the test results, according to the CEO of the company that performed the tests. Its CEO told us of Mullen’s press release: ‘We never would have said that. We never did say it and certainly wouldn’t have said it based on the results of testing that battery.’”
- “In 2020, Mullen announced a joint venture to manufacture its sold-state battery technology. We spoke with a senior executive familiar with the supposed JV who told us ‘It didn’t exist at all’. It was an apparent fabrication. He called Mullen CEO David Michery ‘fast talking’ and a ‘hustler’”.
- “Mullen’s battery claims were based on technology licensed from a 1-year-old Chinese battery technology company. After hyping the importance of the relationship, Mullen made one payment under the deal and promptly terminated the relationship. The Chinese company’s website no longer works.”
