Allegations of Misleading Statements and Regulatory Clash
The lawsuit, Johnson v. Sable Offshore Corp., represents investors who purchased shares between May 19, 2025, and June 3, 2025, including those who participated in the SPO on May 21, 2025. According to the complaint, Sable Offshore issued a press release on May 19 claiming it had restarted oil production, a statement that was quickly challenged by California’s Lieutenant Governor, Eleni Kounalakis. In a letter, Kounalakis clarified that the company's activities were only "well-testing procedures," not the resumption of commercial production.
This alleged deception was exposed on May 28, 2025, when news of the Lieutenant Governor's letter became public. Sable's stock price plummeted by over 15% as a result. The company's legal troubles worsened on June 4, 2025, when a Santa Barbara County Superior Court judge issued a temporary restraining order, prohibiting Sable from transporting oil through the Las Flores Pipeline System. This development caused the stock to fall even further.
The lawsuit seeks to hold the company and its underwriters accountable for allegedly raising capital under false pretenses.
Hagens Berman’s Investigation
Hagens Berman, a national shareholder rights firm, is currently investigating the alleged claims.
Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation, commented on the situation, “We are investigating whether the company’s claims about oil production and the subsequent judicial intervention were part of a pattern of misleading behavior that ultimately caused substantial losses for investors.”
