DMC Global Inc. Under Investigation
The Pomerantz Law Firm has initiated an investigation concerning
DMC Global Inc. (NASDAQ: BOOM) following significant financial disclosures that have raised concerns among investors. This inquiry centers around potential securities fraud and unlawful business practices allegedly committed by the company's officers and directors.
On October 21, 2024, DMC issued a press release revising its financial guidance for the third quarter of its fiscal year, which concluded on September 30, 2024. The company now anticipates an adjusted EBITDA of approximately
$5 million, drastically lower than the previous estimate of
$15 to $18 million. Furthermore, DMC reported substantial charges related to inventory and bad debts—approximately
$5 million—in its manufacturing business,
DynaEnergetics. These troubles were compounded by lower fixed overhead absorption due to reduced sales in both
Arcadia and DynaEnergetics, leading to a staggering
$142 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the acquisition of Arcadia in December 2021.
This dismal forecast led to a sharp decline in DMC's stock price, which fell
$2.36 per share (18.25%) to close at
$10.57 on October 22, 2024. Further bad news arrived on November 4, when the company reported its financial results for the third quarter. DMC disclosed that sales for that quarter totaled
$152.4 million, marking an 11% decrease both from the previous quarter and the same period last year. The company reiterated the non-cash goodwill impairment charge, which only added to the investors' worries. Following this news, the stock price dipped again, losing
$0.59 per share (6%) and finishing at
$9.25 on November 5.
