EVgo Inc.
- Filed petition on Feb 3, 2023 in Delaware Court of Chancery under DGCL Section 205 to validate charter amendment vote.
- Uncertainty stems from recent court ruling on whether separate class votes were required for the amendment that increased authorized shares to 1.2B Class A and 400M Class B.
- If Section 205 proceeding fails, the company faces potential material adverse impact on capitalization, stock compensation, equity/debt financing, and strategic transactions.
