NEW YORK, May 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

What’s Happening:

• Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized stockholder rights law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against POET Technologies, Inc. (“POET” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:POET) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired POET securities between April 1, 2026 and 08:57 AM ET on April 27, 2026, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors have until June 29, 2026 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.
  
  

Allegation Details:

• The complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) POET Technologies misrepresented its tax status due to it likely being deemed a passive foreign investment company (or “PFIC”) under U.S. tax laws which, if not properly reported by each U.S. stockholder, would have negative tax implications for those U.S. stockholders; (2) the foregoing tax issue would, if discovered, make POET Technologies a less attractive investment than it would otherwise be, thus threatening POET Technologies’ valuation; (3) Defendant Thomas Mika, despite affirming that he was not violating a non-disclosure agreement, in fact violated a business agreement by speaking about POET Technologies’ business agreements in a public interview, thus endangering POET Technologies’ business prospects, and (4) as a result, defendants’ statements about POET Technologies’ business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
