QELLW - HAGENS BERMAN NATIONAL TRIAL ATTORNEYS Encourages Investors in Lilium N.V. (LILM QELL QELLU QELLW) with Significant Losses to Contact Firm's Attorneys Firm Investigating Possible Securities Law Violations

SAN FRANCISCO, March 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hagens Berman urges Lilium N.V. (NASDAQ: LILM) investors and Qell Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: QELL, QELLU, QELLW) investors with significant losses to submit your losses now .   The firm is investigating possible securities law violations and certain investors may have valuable claims.

Lilium N.V. (LILM) Investigation:

The investigation focuses on Lilium’s statements leading up to and after its take public SPAC merger.

Specifically, the company has repeatedly touted the technical capabilities of its Lilium Jet, an electric vertical take-off and landing (“eVTOL”) jet, purportedly offering leading capacity, low noise, and high performance. The company also assured investors that current battery technology can support Lilium’s architecture and energy needs. The company has claimed that its Lilium Jet will have a 155-mile range at speeds of up to 175 mph and has ready access to required battery technology. Finally, the Company has touted its signing of a $1 billion deal with Azul to sell 220 aircraft to the Brazilian airline.

Lilium’s claims were brought into question on Mar. 14, 2022, when activist short-seller Iceberg Research published a report revealing that many experts have raised serious doubts about the Jet’s ability to fly 155 miles, largely due to its configuration of 36 inducted fans (recently reduced to 30) that devour power during takeoff and landing leaving little power for actual flight. According to the report, while “Lilium promises it has ready access to battery cells with energy density of 320-330 Wh/kg” one of the sources it relies on is a Lilium-owned associated company whose CEO was accused by GM of misrepresenting battery performance while at his previous company. Iceberg also said “[w]e believe the [Azul] deal is more akin to a ‘marketing agreement’: Lilium offered cheap shares to Azul in exchange for the right to market an established company as a partner.”

In response, the price of Lilium shares fell sharply lower.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and whether Lilium misrepresented the commercial viability of its Jet,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
