CCB Shareholder Alert: Coastal Financial Corporation Securities Class Action Lawsuit - Investors With Losses May Contact Levi & Korsinsky

The securities action asserts that Coastal Financial's public assurances of "strong regulatory stewardship" and disciplined CCBX credit oversight violated Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5. Those assurances preceded a $68.8 million single-partner charge that sent CCB shares down 43.5%.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP notifies investors in Coastal Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: CCB) that a securities class action asserting claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 has been filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington (Case No. 2:26-cv-03746). The case covers purchasers of Coastal common stock between October 28, 2024 and July 29, 2026. Submit your information now or contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.

IMPORTANT DATE: December 1, 2026. That is the deadline to seek lead plaintiff appointment in a case where Coastal reported a $42.1 million GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2026. CCB shares fell $30.75, or 43.5%, to close at $39.91 on July 30, 2026, erasing approximately $470 million in market capitalization in a single session.

Alleged Exchange Act Violations Behind the CCB Losses

The complaint brings claims under Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 against Coastal and three current or former senior officers. It also charges those officers as control persons under Section 20(a). As alleged, the Company presented its banking-as-a-service expansion as disciplined and compliance-focused while omitting that a large partner loan portfolio had materially deteriorated.

The lawsuit maintains these omissions left Coastal exposed to losses that its partner indemnification arrangements did not prevent.

Regulatory Stewardship Claims Versus the Alleged Record

Plaintiffs contend that the following compliance and oversight assurances did not reflect conditions inside the CCBX portfolio:

• September 22, 2025: Coastal said a new CFO appointment reaffirmed "its dedication to operating excellence, strong regulatory stewardship," and the continued scaling of its fintech division.
• October 2, 2025: The Company disclosed that its Chief Risk Officer had resigned effective September 29, 2025. The complaint cites this departure as supporting an inference of scienter.
• October 29, 2025: The Company said it remained "confident in our ability to manage expenses and maintain credit quality, even in a changing economic and interest rate environment."
• April 29, 2026: Management tied CCBX growth to operating in a "safe and sound manner" as expectations for bank-fintech partnerships evolved.
• July 22, 2026: Coastal announced that its CFO would step down effective August 15, 2026. That announcement came eight days before the Company disclosed the $68.8 million single-partner credit expense.

Why Plaintiffs Say the Safe Harbor Offers No Cover

The action claims that many of the challenged statements were never identified as forward-looking. Where any were, the complaint asserts that "there were no meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially." In practical terms, plaintiffs argue that Coastal's assurances about credit quality and partner protections cannot be excused as mere projections.

"Coastal told investors it was dedicated to strong regulatory stewardship and to operating in a safe and sound manner, and shareholders were entitled to rely on those words. The complaint alleges that, during the same period, a partner portfolio of approximately $500 million was deteriorating without disclosure. Whether those assurances were accurate when made is a central question in this case." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.
