The complaint alleges that the problems came to light through a series of company disclosures issued between February 23, 2026, and June 22, 2026, rather than solely through the final June announcement.
Multiple law firms have filed securities class actions against Primoris Services Corporation, alleging the renewable-energy contractor misrepresented the health of its major projects. Kaplan Fox and Kirby McInerney claim Primoris hid cost overruns and execution problems affecting six fixed-price renewable-energy contracts, causing the stock to plunge 22% on June 23, 2026. Investors who bought shares between August 5, 2025, and June 22, 2026, can seek lead plaintiff status by September 21, 2026.
On June 22, Primoris disclosed that an internal review had uncovered substantial challenges across six renewable projects, forcing the company to slash 2026 guidance. The company cut adjusted EPS guidance to $2.05–$2.60 from higher estimates and lowered adjusted EBITDA guidance to $275–$325 million. The chief operating officer resigned, and shares closed at $84.95 on June 23 after the earnings shock.
Hidden Cost Problems Emerged Over Six Months
The lawsuit alleges Primoris did not suddenly discover cost overruns on June 22. Instead, Kaplan Fox says the problems surfaced through a series of disclosures starting February 23, 2026, and continuing through June 22. Investors claim the company failed to warn them about weakening cost-estimation practices and poor forecasting on fixed-price contracts. The slow trickle of bad news suggests management knew about troubles much earlier.
Massive Earnings Cuts Signal Deep Financial Damage
Primoris slashed its renewables revenue forecast to approximately $2.1 billion for 2026, a dramatic downward revision. The adjusted EBITDA guidance now sits at $275–$325 million, down sharply from prior expectations. Adjusted EPS guidance fell to $2.05–$2.60. These cuts show that cost overruns on fixed-price projects are eating into profits far more than the company previously told shareholders.
Shareholders Have Until September 21 to Claim Lead Role
ClaimsFiler and Kaplan Fox are urging investors with significant losses to register as lead plaintiff in the class action pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The deadline is September 21, 2026. Investors who bought Primoris shares between August 5, 2025, and June 22, 2026, may qualify. Lead plaintiff status often goes to investors with losses exceeding $100,000.
Similar Fraud Cases Filed Against Avis and Wix
Class actions against Avis and Wix follow the same pattern as the Primoris suit. Investors claim all three companies made misleading statements about their business performance, then shocked the market with major revisions. Such lawsuits typically focus on whether company executives knowingly withheld material information or recklessly ignored red flags. Settlements often recover cents on the dollar for shareholders.
