The legal challenge, spearheaded by Hagens Berman, targets assertions made by former CEO Vishal Garg and CFO Loveen Advani during a March 2026 earnings call. At that time, management claimed the company remained on track to hit $1 billion in monthly loan volume by May, insisting its growth trajectory was insulated from broader macroeconomic shifts. By early May, however, the company admitted these targets were unreachable, revising its monthly outlook downward to roughly $550 million—a 45% shortfall from previous guidance.
Better Home & Finance Faces Class Action Over Missed Loan Targets
A 28% single-day stock collapse has triggered a securities class action against Better Home & Finance, following disclosures that the company failed to meet its aggressive monthly loan volume projections and suffered a 75% sequential spike in net losses during the first quarter of 2026.
Investors allege that leadership withheld critical data regarding the deterioration of the company’s conversion funnel. When the reality of the slowed loan production and mounting losses surfaced on May 7, Better Home shares plummeted, contributing to a year-to-date decline nearing 60%. The fallout extended to the executive suite, where the company fired its CEO following the disclosure. The class action covers the period between March 13 and May 7, 2026, with a lead plaintiff deadline set for November 20, 2026.
