Pomerantz Law Firm Launches Investigation into Vita Coco Company, Potential Securities Fraud Claims
Investigation into Vita Coco Company by Pomerantz Law Firm
On April 28, 2025, Pomerantz LLP confirmed that it is actively investigating potential claims on behalf of investors in The Vita Coco Company, Inc., trading under the ticker symbol COCO on NASDAQ. The essence of this investigation is centered around allegations that the company, along with certain officers and directors, may have participated in business practices that could be classified as securities fraud.
The Allegations
A recent report published on March 26, 2025, by NINGI Research has raised serious concerns about Vita Coco's operations and growth narrative. The report claims that the company has been misleading investors concerning its performance and growth trajectory. One of the most alarming assertions in the report is that Vita Coco is potentially on track to lose a significant contract with Costco, which is estimated to contribute about 25% of the company's net sales.
This potential loss, coupled with other serious internal operational issues cited in the report — such as supply chain mismanagement and questionable related-party transactions — has cast a shadow over Vita Coco's financial health and operational integrity. Furthermore, the report suggests that Vita Coco's performance outside its main coconut water line has not been satisfactory, raising questions about the company’s overall market strategy.
Market Reaction
The market responded negatively to these allegations. On the same day the report was published, Vita Coco's stock price saw a significant decline, dropping $3.90 per share or approximately 11%, bringing its closing price down to $31.55. This drastic change highlights investor concern about the stability and transparency of the company's operations.
