Better Home & Finance Faces Securities Lawsuit After Missed Targets

The legal scrutiny centers on statements made by former CEO Vishal Garg and CFO Loveen Advani during the company’s March 13, 2026, earnings call. At the time, leadership insisted the firm was on track to reach $1 billion in monthly loan volume by May, claiming Better Home remained insulated from broader mortgage market volatility. However, the company’s subsequent Q1 2026 report revealed a starkly different reality, with executives admitting that conversion rates had faltered under macroeconomic pressure.

Instead of the promised $1 billion monthly output, the revised guidance pointed toward a quarterly volume of roughly $1.65 billion, or $550 million per month—a 45% shortfall from previous assurances. Hagens Berman, the firm leading the class action, is now investigating whether management misled shareholders by failing to disclose the cooling conversion funnel prior to the May 7 disclosure. With the stock down nearly 60% year-to-date, the firm is seeking investors who suffered significant losses during the Class Period between March 13 and May 7, 2026.
