SueWallSt Reminds Hub Group, Inc. Investors of the Pending Class Action Lawsuit With a Lead Plaintiff Deadline of August 28, 2026 - HUBG

Kevin Beth Allegedly Oversaw Hub Group's $77 Million Cost Understatement and Signed SOX Certifications Attesting to Financial Accuracy Before His Departure in May 2026

NEW YORK, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- SueWallSt notifies investors in Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HUBG) that Kevin Beth, the Company's former Chief Financial Officer, is named as a defendant in a securities class action covering purchases between April 28, 2023, and May 11, 2026. Find out if you may qualify to recover losses. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (888) SueWallSt.

Hub Group shares fell a cumulative $14.71 per share, or 28.6%, from a Class Period high of $51.33 to $36.62 following two corrective disclosures that revealed materially misstated financials spanning three years. The last day to move for lead plaintiff is August 28, 2026.

Kevin Beth's Tenure and Financial Oversight Responsibilities

Beth served as Hub Group's CFO, Executive Vice President, and Treasurer from January 1, 2024, until the announcement of his departure on May 28, 2026. Before becoming CFO, he served as the Company's Chief Accounting Officer and EVP, giving him direct involvement in Hub Group's financial reporting processes across a significant portion of the Class Period.

As CFO, Beth was responsible for the accuracy of Hub Group's financial disclosures, signed quarterly and annual SEC filings, and provided Sarbanes-Oxley certifications attesting that the Company's financial statements "fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows" of Hub Group.

What Beth Allegedly Oversaw

The complaint identifies specific actions and statements attributed to Beth during his tenure as CFO:

• Signed Hub Group's Forms 10-Q and 10-K filed with the SEC from Q1 2023 through Q3 2025
• Provided SOX certifications for each filing period affirming that disclosure controls were effective and financial statements were materially accurate
• Stated on the Q1 2025 earnings call that purchased transportation costs decreased $82 million "due to strong cost controls as well as lower rail and warehouse expenses," when costs were allegedly understated by tens of millions
• Repeated similar cost reduction claims on Q2 and Q3 2025 earnings calls, each time attributing declines to operational efficiency rather than accounting errors
• Departed the Company on May 28, 2026, just sixteen days after the second corrective disclosure on May 12, 2026 rendered 2023 and 2024 annual reports unreliable

Beth's SOX Certifications and Personal Liability

Under Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the certifying officer bears personal responsibility for the accuracy of financial statements filed with the SEC. The lawsuit contends that Beth certified financial statements he knew, or should have known, contained material misstatements regarding purchased transportation costs and accounts payable.

The action further asserts that Beth, as a controlling person under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, had the power to influence the content of Hub Group's SEC filings and public statements, and failed to ensure their accuracy.

"Individual officers who sign SEC certifications bear personal responsibility for the accuracy of corporate disclosures. When a company later admits those disclosures were materially misstated across multiple years, the certifying officers face serious questions about what they knew and when." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.
