What Is The Investigation About?

On January 20, 2026, AeroVironment disclosed that the US government had issued a stop work order on the Company’s agreement to deliver BADGER phased array antenna systems to the US Space Force’s SCAR program. The Company stated the stop work order “allows for the parties to negotiate an amended agreement for the future of the SCAR program” and that “[t]he Company expects to continue to deliver capabilities and products for the SCAR program.”

On this news, AeroVironment’s stock price fell $61.97, or 15.8%, to close at $330.89 per share on January 20, 2026, thereby injuring investors.

Then, on March 2, 2026, Space News reported that the US Space Force was reopening the SCAR program and “reassessing how to move forward.”

On this news, AeroVironment’s stock price fell $43.93, or 17.4%, to close at $208.32 per share on March 2, 2026.

Then, on March 10, 2026, AeroVironment released its third quarter fiscal 2026 financial results, reporting an operating loss of $179 million, compared to $3.1 million the previous year. The results reflected the impact of a $151.3 million goodwill impairment after the stop work order on the BADGER systems. The Company also revealed that the US Space Force had terminated the Company’s contract for the SCAR program and, as a result, it would have to “recompete” for the program.

On this news, AeroVironment’s stock price fell $13.84, or 6.2%, to close at $207.73 per share on March 11, 2026.

Then, on March 31, 2026, the US Space Force announced its decision to diversify suppliers and rely on less costly commercial, off-the-shelf solutions in connection with its work to upgrade the Satellite Control Network, instead of pursuing another single-vendor bespoke solution.
