Spotlight AI-Related Claims and Other Securities Litigation Trends to Watch Contributing Partners: Jay B. Kasner, Scott D. Musoff and Susan L. Saltzstein Contributing Counsel: William J. O’Brien III Key Points The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence is fueling a surge in AI-related securities claims. Plaintiffs are increasingly testing the limits of when expert opinions and short-seller reports can be credited at the motion-to-dismiss stage. Plaintiffs are starting to target private credit lenders under Rule 10b-5, focusing on alleged misstatements about portfolio performance and asset values. Tracing requirements for claims under the Securities Act are likely to become a focal point in 2026, as parties grapple with the aftermath of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Slack Technologies, LLC v. Pirani . __________ New Filings Shift Toward AI-Related Claims Securities class action filings remained elevated in 2025, signaling that robust activity will likely persist into 2026. According to economic and financial consulting company Cornerstone Research, 207 new securities class actions were filed in federal and state courts in 2025. 1 Notably, only four cases under the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) were brought in state court in 2025, on track to be the lowest annual total since the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2018 decision in Cyan, Inc. v. Beaver County Employees Retirement Fund , 583 U.S. 416 (2018), which confirmed the concurrent jurisdiction of state courts over ’33 Act claims. Beyond the numbers, AI-related class actions have outpaced other categories and are set to shape the litigation landscape in the coming year. For example, plaintiffs have filed a number of complaints based on allegations of “AI-washing” — misrepresentations about AI capabilities or revenues. Plaintiffs also claim companies have: Overstated AI-driven efficiencies. Misleadingly rebranded legacy technology as AI (so-called AI-washing). Concealed licensing or performance issues. Exaggerated the pace and feasibility of AI integration. Expert Reports at the Pleadings Stage After NVIDIA Lower courts continue to wrestle with plaintiffs’ use of expert opinions to support their allegations at the pleading stage. This strategy of using expert opinions gained traction after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit’s decision in E. Ohman J:or Fonder AB v. NVIDIA Corp ., 81 F.4th 918 (9th Cir. 2023), which credited falsity allegations based partly on a post hoc expert analysis of NVIDIA’s reported revenues. The Supreme Court initially granted certiorari to review the Ninth Circuit’s decision but ultimately dismissed the case as improvidently granted after oral argument. Since then, most district courts have declined to credit expert opinions unless they are grounded in particularized facts. With no Supreme Court guidance, this area remains unsettled and further developments are likely as courts and litigants explore the boundaries of what is permissible at the motion-to-dismiss stage. Short-Seller Reports: Ongoing Challenges for Plaintiffs Plaintiffs are increasingly relying on allegations drawn from reports issued by short-sellers — investors with an incentive to drive the issuer’s stock price lower. In assessing the elements of falsity and scienter, courts have generally been reluctant to credit “short report” allegations unless corroborated by independent, well-pled facts, such as company admissions. Loss causation has proven to be another hurdle, as illustrated by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit’s recent decision in Defeo v. IonQ, Inc. , 134 F.4th 153 (4th Cir. 2025). There, the plaintiffs alleged that IonQ, a quantum computing company, made materially false statements about its technology and prospects, relying on a report by Scorpion Capital LLC, an activist short-seller. The report accused IonQ of running a “quantum Ponzi scheme” and misleading the public about its technology and revenues. After the report’s publication, IonQ’s stock price fell and plaintiffs claimed this decline established loss causation. The Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the complaint for failing to plead loss causation. The court held in part that because Scorpion Capital’s report had relied on anonymous sources, included disclaimers of accuracy, and disclosed a self-interested financial motive, it was not a plausible corrective disclosure for loss causation purposes. In reaching its conclusion, the court echoed the Ninth Circuit’s observation in In re Nektar Therapeutics Securities Litigation , 34 F.4th 828 (9th Cir. 2022), that plaintiffs face a “high bar … in relying on self-interested and anonymous short-sellers” when attempting to plead loss causation. The Fourth Circuit, like the Ninth Circuit, left open the possibility that, under the right circumstances, a short-seller report might support loss causation. Still, the Fourth Circuit’s decision is a notable win for corporate defendants and signals that plaintiffs will face significant challenges when relying on similar reports. Emerging Issues: Litigation Against Private Credit Lenders and Securities Act Tracing Looking ahead, several other trends warrant attention. Private credit lenders may become targets in securities class actions arising from capital raises involving retail investors. Plaintiffs have thus far treated private credit vehicles like traditional issuers under Rule 10b-5, focusing on alleged misstatements about portfolio performance and asset values. Traceability — the requirement that plaintiffs “trace” their securities to a specific registration statement or prospectus for Securities Act claims — may also become a flashpoint.

Our critical work utilizes a variety of systems and tools located on-premise and in the cloud. The Firm has deployed a firmwide document management system where documents can be secured at the document, matter or client level. The system allows for collaboration between legal teams, granular security and access auditing. Our systems are designed to enable secure communications and document exchanges across authenticated devices. Message transfers to and from clients utilize forced encryption when required, but are otherwise handled using opportunistic encryption. These resources are engineered for seamless collaboration .  Our legal technology platform is designed to leverage both on-premise and cloud-based solutions for handling client documents and information. Accordingly, we are able to tailor our approach to meet the specific requirements of each client and each matter.

The Firm’s application suite is centralized and virtualized, avoiding the need for local storage of client data. This improves our information security and results in faster and more reliable systems.

On an annual basis, all personnel must review and agree to comply with Firm security policies, attend a mandatory in-person ethics training and complete a security awareness training program.  Reliability Skadden selects as partners highly respected names in technology — including Citrix, Dell/EMC, Microsoft and Cisco — in constructing and supporting our technological workplace.

Skadden utilizes consolidated regional data centers so that the physical components of the environment receive attentive security.

That could force a rethink of everything from shareholder engagement strategies to the wording of financial disclosures. Also in this issue of The Informed Board : As board self-evaluations gain popularity, we talk to a director about what she has learned from leading these. Her practical tips will help boards get the most out of the process. Spoiler alert: Ditch the multiple-choice questionnaires. And, in an article and our podcast, we look at the nature of board oversight when it comes to AI — how boards can educate themselves, the need to inventory a company’s different AI applications, and how corporate AI uses are in fact already regulated by multiple existing laws even though there is no comprehensive federal regulatory framework in the U.S. Will Curbs on Proxy Advisors Make Shareholder Votes Less Predictable? As the administration challenges the power of proxy advisors and some institutional investors take decision-making in-house, it may be harder to muster support for critical shareholder votes and outcomes could be less predictable. No Loopholes for AI: Putting Legal Guardrails on Your Company's Use of AI While there is no comprehensive federal AI law in the U.S., many existing laws govern business uses of AI, particularly in regulated industries. Companies need to take stock of the ways they employ AI and identify areas that may already be regulated. Interview: Effective Board Evaluations: A Director’s Practical Tips Forget check-the-box questionnaires. Confidential, in-person director interviews by an outsider about critical board roles and functions yield candid feedback that will spark discussion. But follow-through on the insights that emerge is essential. Podcast: As AI Evolves, So Must Board Oversight AI is advancing so quickly that directors need to familiarize themselves with the technology and regularly reevaluate their companies’ use of it to stay on top of its potential and risks.

We remain focused on developing extraordinary attorneys who work together as a team to deliver the highest quality advice and best outcomes for clients. OFFICE LOCATIONS CONTACT US Firm History Founded by Marshall Skadden, Les Arps and John Slate on April Fools’ Day in 1948, Skadden began as a scrappy upstart among a sea of established “white shoe” law firms in New York. Joe Flom was hired as the firm’s first associate later that year, and litigator Bill Meagher, the fifth partner to lend his name to the firm’s letterhead as it appears today, joined in 1959. Our first two decades were marked by slow and steady growth of our client base as we set out to establish ourselves as the go-to firm for our clients’ most complex legal problems. Our willingness to handle proxy fights in the 1950s and early 1960s — matters deemed unseemly by white shoe firms — positioned us to ultimately become the firm of choice for the hostile takeovers that dominated the M&A landscape beginning in the 1970s. Recognizing the value of providing full-service advice to clients, from day one we sought to develop a range of complementary practices, like litigation, tax and antitrust. Client needs led us to open offices in other cities beginning in 1973, and the volume of work we were handling fueled exponential growth in the number of attorneys at the firm in the 1980s. That growth included a significant expansion of the practices we offered to clients, including restructuring, finance, real estate, mass torts and securities litigation, as well as the opening of offices in Europe and Asia. In the decades since, we’ve built on that platform to provide advice to clients around the world on their most important matters. Our core values reflect the ideals of our history, and we remain committed to providing excellent lawyering and unrivaled client service in all our work.  BACK TO TOP Contact Us Legal Notices Disclaimers Privacy Statement Cookies Policy Technology Overview Attorney Advertising Alumni Login Skadden Foundation Skadden.com 2026 Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Affiliates Main Menu Capabilities Professionals Insights About Locations Careers Professionals | Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP Skip to content Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Affiliates Home / Professionals Search Menu Professionals The collective experience and knowledge of more than 1,700 lawyers in 21 offices across 50-plus disciplines position Skadden to deliver on our commitment to excellence in legal and client services.
