SAN DIEGO, Feb. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Nuvve Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: NVVE), the global leader in vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology, has entered into a service agreement with Shareholder Intelligence Services, LLC (“ShareIntel”) to assist in our efforts to help identify and combat suspected illegal naked short selling activities and other potential trading violations or market manipulation. Among other services, ShareIntel will monitor trading activity, including shareholder, critical broker-dealer and clearing firm trading patterns as part of its mission to protect investors and maximize shareholder value.
Nuvve believes it may have been the target of a market manipulation scheme involving illegal naked short selling of its common stock that may have artificially depressed its share price and has engaged ShareIntel to monitor and investigate.
“We want to ensure that Nuvve is not the target of abusive and unlawful trading activities and uncover any evidence to suggest that Nuvve’s short position could be greater than the tradable shares in the market. The potential targeting of Nuvve and other publicly traded companies in a market manipulation scheme is concerning,” said David Robson, chief financial officer for Nuvve. “Such suspected manipulation distorts the value of targeted organizations and negatively impacts shareholders. This engagement with ShareIntel is fundamental to our commitment to protecting shareholders’ investments and addressing suspected violations.”
ShareIntel utilizes a patented process called DRIL-Down™ to aggregate and analyze repository data from reporting entities, broker-dealers and shareholders. This will enable Nuvve to proactively track shareholder ownership, identify parties to suspicious, aberrant or unusual trading activity and deploy corrective steps to help curtail such activity.
Nuvve is committed to taking all necessary actions to protect the interests of its shareholders and will continue to work with ShareIntel and other partners to combat potential illegal short selling and restore fair market conditions.
