Pomerantz Law Firm Initiates Legal Action Against Blue Owl Capital

In a recent development, the Pomerantz Law Firm has announced a class action lawsuit against Blue Owl Capital Inc. This legal action comes in light of significant losses incurred by investors, raising concerns about potential securities fraud and other unlawful business practices by the company and some of its officers.

Background of the Case

The lawsuit specifically targets grievances from investors who acquired Blue Owl securities during a defined Class Period. Investors are encouraged to take action by contacting the firm, as they have until February 2, 2025, to apply for Lead Plaintiff status in the case. This opportunity is intended for individuals who purchased shares of Blue Owl and are now seeking recourse.

Blue Owl, known by its ticker symbol OWL, reported disappointing financial results for the third quarter of 2025. The company's fee-related earnings stood at only $376.2 million, falling short of consensus estimates and sparking concern among investors. Furthermore, the fee-related earnings margins of 57.1% lagged expectations by about 20 basis points, while performance revenue plummeted by 33% year over year to a mere $188,000.

As a direct consequence of this disappointing financial disclosure on October 30, 2025, Blue Owl's stock witnessed a notable decline, dropping by $0.70 per share, which translates to a decrease of 4.23%, closing at $15.86.

Subsequent Developments

The situation deteriorated further when, on November 5, 2025, two of Blue Owl’s business development companies—Blue Owl Capital Corporation and Blue Owl Capital Corporation II—revealed plans for a merger. Their announcement included a statement indicating that OBDC II did not foresee any additional tender offers before the merger. Following this news, Blue Owl's stock fell again, this time by $0.74 per share, concluding at $14.95 on November 6.

Media coverage intensified with a report from The Financial Times on November 16, 2025, predicting potential financial losses for investors associated with the merger. This report and subsequent market reactions culminated in a further drop of Blue Owl's stock price by $0.85 per share, resulting in a closing price of $13.77 on November 17.

The turbulence continued when, just two days later, Blue Owl announced the termination of the proposed merger, citing prevailing market conditions as the reason for their decision. This series of events has left many investors seeking clarification and potential recourse through legal avenues.
