Venture Global, Inc. Faces Securities Class Action Lawsuit Over Fraud Allegations
On March 21, 2025, Levi & Korsinsky, LLP announced a pending class action lawsuit against Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE: VG) regarding alleged securities fraud that has impacted its investors. The firm seeks to represent shareholders who acquired stock linked to Venture's registration statement for its recent initial public offering (IPO) that occurred on January 24, 2025. This legal matter highlights concerns raised due to discrepancies and misleading statements made by the company regarding its business operations and fiscal health.
Background on the IPO
Venture Global initiated its IPO on January 27, 2025, offering 70 million shares at a price of $24.00 each. However, shortly after going public, serious questions arose when TotalEnergies, a key potential client, publicly declined to forge a long-term partnership with Venture. The CEO of TotalEnergies cited issues of trust regarding Venture's operational integrity, which sparked further scrutiny. Specifically, TotalEnergies distanced itself from Venture's offers to supply liquefied natural gas from its Calcasieu Pass terminal located in Louisiana, emphasizing concerns about the company's ongoing projects and communication practices.
Legal Challenges
As this situation unfolds, Venture Global is currently entangled in legal disputes with major existing clients like BP and Shell, due to contract delays that undermine its ability to furnish liquefied natural gas as promised. The implications of these ongoing challenges are significant, as they directly affect Venture's capacity to maintain customer contracts and ensure consistent growth and delivery of services. The lawsuit asserts that these issues rendered several statements in Venture's IPO registration misleading or false, detracting from the overall value and viability of the investment made by shareholders.

Investors who believe they have incurred losses during the relevant time frame must act quickly—by April 18, 2025—to request their designation as lead plaintiff in the case.
