UWM Holdings Corporation faces a securities class action after its shares fell 34% on Aug. 6, 2026, following disclosures of a more than $603 million hedging loss linked to its failed acquisition of Two Harbors Investment Corp. The company reported a $451 million net loss, a roughly $615 million or 38% sequential decline in total equity, and a massively dilutive recapitalization plan. Hagens Berman is investigating whether UWM adequately disclosed the risks from hedging Two Harbors’ mortgage servicing rights portfolio. The proposed class period runs from March 9 through Aug. 5, 2026, with a lead plaintiff deadline of Oct. 13, 2026.
