This came amid a retraction by the company about statements it made about $NVDA in its 10-K. On March 31, 2026, $SHAZ filed a 10-K signed by Manning telling investors NVIDIA was a "strategic shareholder." Thirteen days later, $SHAZ filed an 8-K saying NVIDIA was never a shareholder. The 10-K was not amended. The correction was filed under Item 8.01, not Item 4.02.

Since $VIA has not broken out Downtowner revenue, we model total sales up to $40mn, which worsens the Q1 organic revenue hit to -4.5%. Full-year standalone revenue growth declines to between 16% and 20% in these scenarios, and for a company that is still burning cash.

$VIA's apparent issues are also the industry's: new starts across on-demand transit fell in 2025, per expert Lukas Foljanty. However, $VIA maintained that RFPs are "pretty consistent YoY". lukas-foljanty.medium.com/on…

COVID-era relief funds are due to expire next year. Multiple agencies are already warning that they can not sustain microtransit programs like that of $VIA without subsidies. 40% of microtransit projects fail within 3 years.

VIA's reality is that it has the economics of a subscale, labor-intensive transit contractor dependent on temporary subsidies, aggressive accounting, and a mischaracterized revenue mix. Valued at Lyft's 2027 gross profit multiple, $VIA has 60% downside.
