The lawsuit alleges that Alibaba and certain executives misrepresented and failed to disclose adverse facts pertaining to the Company's business which were known to Defendants or recklessly disregarded by them.

Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:

Under the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), any entities directly or indirectly controlled by or affiliated with the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) were considered a Chinese military company;Alibaba was directly or indirectly controlled by or affiliated with the MIIT;The risk of Alibaba carrying out distillation attacks against third- party AI models was not a mere hypothetical or inadvertent, but ongoing; andAs a result, Defendants' public statements about Alibaba's business, operations, and prospects were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

The truth regarding Alibaba's regulatory exposure and illicit business practices was revealed through a series of partial corrective disclosures:

June 8, 2026: The U.S. Department of Defense added Alibaba to its list of Chinese military companies under the NDAA due to its ties to the MIIT. On this news, Alibaba ADSs fell $4.69 per share , or 3.9% , over two trading sessions.June 24, 2026: Bloomberg reported that Anthropic alerted U.S. officials that Alibaba fraudulently accessed Anthropic's Claude AI models via thousands of fake accounts to execute unauthorized "distillation" attacks to train its own models. On this news, Alibaba ADSs fell $4.73 per share , or 4.7% , to close at $95.07 on June 25, 2026.

The complaint alleges that as a result of Defendants' misleading statements and omissions, investors suffered substantial losses when the artificial inflation was removed from the stock.

"We are investigating whether Alibaba executives intentionally concealed the company's regulatory ties and engaged in fraudulent operational practices to mislead the market about its true risk profile and competitive position," said Reed Kathrein , the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm's investigation of the alleged claims in the pending suit.
