What Is the Investigation About?
On August 10, 2026, the SEC filed a complaint against Netcapital and certain senior executives alleging, among other things, that Netcapital was involved in a fraudulent scheme to overstate the revenue of Netcapital. Specifically, from approximately October 2021 through January 2024, Netcapital improperly recorded nearly $14 million in revenue from sham consulting agreements which produced no real revenue for Netcapital.

During this period, investors in Netcapital’s public and private securities offerings invested over $25.6 million.
On this news, Netcapital stock fell $0.05 or 12.82%, to close at $0.35 on August 11, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
