The case follows restatement disclosures that erased nearly 40% of the stock in a day.

Plaintiff law firms on Monday and Tuesday urged Driven Brands shareholders to seek appointment as lead plaintiff by May 8, 2026.
The case is filed in the Southern District of New York as Clark v. Driven Brands Holdings Inc., No. 1:26-cv-01902.
