What Happened?

On February 25, 2025, Driven Brands disclosed “material errors in [the Company’s] previously issued consolidated financial statements” dating back to 2023. As such, its “financial statements should not be relied upon and required restatement.”

The Company disclosed at least ten different categories of errors which included: “inappropriately recognized revenue,” “unreconciled differences for cash accounts,” overstatement of expenses, and issues with the “completeness and accuracy of recording leases.” The Company noted it “may identify further material errors.”

On this news, Driven Brands’ stock price fell $5.01, or 30.2%, to close at $11.60 per share on February 25, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
