A securities class action names Maxim Group, LLC, the underwriter of Ryde Group Ltd's $4.00 March 2024 initial public offering, alleging the offering documents it brought to market omitted the manipulation risk that preceded a collapse in RYDE shares.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SueWallSt notifies investors in Ryde Group Ltd (NYSE: RYDE) that a securities class action has been filed on behalf of purchasers of RYDE securities between March 6, 2024 and September 11, 2024, and that IPO underwriter Maxim Group, LLC is among the named defendants. Find out if you could qualify to recover your per-share losses.

RYDE priced its offering at $4.00 per share and raised $12,000,000 in gross proceeds. Shares reached $22.49 on September 11, 2024, a valuation of roughly $900 million, then reportedly crashed approximately 75% to $5.50, and has “rapidly declined” since to around $0.50.

LEAD PLAINTIFF DEADLINE: November 9, 2026

Maxim Group's Role During the Class Period

The complaint identifies Maxim Group, LLC as the underwriter for the March 6, 2024 offering of 3,000,000 Class A ordinary shares and for an additional offering on September 27, 2024. Prospectus terms set Maxim's compensation at a discount equal to 7.5% of gross proceeds, roughly $900,000 on a $12,000,000 raise, plus 5% of aggregate gross proceeds from investors it referred into the deal.

Maxim Group's Alleged Role

• Underwrote the offering of 3,000,000 Class A ordinary shares priced at $4.00 per share on March 6, 2024
• Received a stated 7.5% discount on gross proceeds, plus 5% of aggregate gross proceeds raised from referred investors
• Published a news release on its own website the day of pricing describing RYDE as "a technology company with a leading platform for mobility and quick commerce in Singapore"
• As named in the action, had the ability and opportunity to prevent issuance of the February 12, 2024 registration statement and the March 7, 2024 prospectus, or to cause them to be corrected
• Neither offering document addressed the manipulation risk the action associates with low-float foreign micro-cap listings, where public floats are often under 10%
• Served again as underwriter for the September 27, 2024 offering, weeks after the collapse

Gatekeeper Liability Context for Maxim Group

The action pleads claims under Section 10(b) and Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5, and it points to the SEC's September 5, 2025 announcement of a cross-border task force that expressly identified "auditors and underwriters" as gatekeepers in pump-and-dump and ramp-and-dump schemes involving foreign-based issuers.

"Underwriters occupy a gatekeeping position in every public offering, and this complaint asks whether purchasers who paid $4.00 per share received disclosure of the manipulation risks the action associates with this listing structure. Those questions will be tested through the litigation process." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.
