The Better Home & Finance (BETR) Securities Class Actions
The litigation is focused on the propriety of Better Home & Finance's disclosures about its Tinman AI platform, which the company uses for its own direct-to-consumer lending and licenses to other lenders as a separate revenue channel.
More specifically, during the Class Period Better Home repeatedly touted Tinman AI and several landmark partnerships scaling, such that the company would achieve $1.0 billion in monthly funded loan volume by the end of May 2026.
For example, the company has cited strong growth in its Tinman AI and elevated pre-approval volume as primary drivers, said "[o]ur platform partnerships are growing rapidly and contributing an increasingly meaningful share of our overall business[,]"assured investors that "[w]e expect to achieve adjusted EBITDA breakeven by the end of Q3 2026."
According to the complaints, defendants misled investors because they failed to disclose that:
- The company's customer conversion of website visits and pre-approvals into actual funded loans was already experiencing severe slowdowns due to macroeconomic factors.
- Its enterprise partnerships were experiencing significant execution and integration problems;
- It did not have sufficient infrastructure to effectively implement and support its enterprise partnerships;
- Its costly enterprise integrations were not yielding material results; and
- As a result of the undisclosed conversion deterioration and enterprise partnerships' difficulties, the company's $1.0 billion monthly funded volume target was unattainable within the communicated timeframe and was likely to be deferred.
Investors' expectations were dashed on May 7, 2026, when Better Home revealed during its Q1 2026 earnings presentation that conversion rates had fallen and said that Q2 monthly funded loans were expected to be an average of just $550 million per month (45% lower than previously assured). Nonetheless, CEO Vishal Garg reassured investors repeated assurance that the company would hit adjusted breakeven adjusted EBITDA by the end of Q3 2026.
On August 4, 2026, Better Home announced that its board abruptly replaced Garg and said he "mutually agreed with the Board" to leave the CEO position.
Two days later, Better Home said that for Q3 2026 it expected sequentially fewer monthly funded loans, "we now expect to fall short" of reaching adjusted EBITDA break-even by September, and "[o]ur partnership support infrastructure still requires work[.]" The company and its new management also cast blame on problems with costly enterprise integrations that "so far have not yielded material results[.]"
Each of these revelations drove the price of Better Homes shares sharply lower – between May 6, 2026 and the close on August 6, the price has cratered 61%.
"We are evaluating whether executive management knew its loan conversion rates were already slowing when it reaffirmed the $1 billion monthly volume target to the market," said Reed Kathrein, a Hagens Berman partner.
