By August 29, 2025, just weeks after closing a $1.5 billion offering, ALT5 revealed that “on May 7, 2025, the Intermediate Court of Nyarugenge, Rwanda, rendered a judgment finding ALT5 Sigma Canada Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, and its former principal, Mr. Andre Beauchesne, criminally liable for offenses including illicit enrichment and money laundering[.]” In addition, ALT5 said that it was reviewing “potential misstatements or omissions in the financial statements of the Company and omissions of material information by certain members of management and personnel of the Company.” Then, on October 22, 2025, the company announced that it suspended CEO Peter Tassiopoulos and CFO Jonathan Hugh assumed Tassiopoulos’ duties. Subsequently, on November 12, 2025, ALT5 disclosed that it would not timely file its quarterly report as a result of the ongoing review of the matters disclosed in August and delays related to the timeliness and responsiveness of its outside auditor. Hugh’s tenure was short-lived. On November 26, 2025, ALT5 announced that it fired Hugh effective November 21. The company also said its Audit Committee Chair, who joined the board in July, resigned from the board and all committees he served on. Finally, on November 28, 2025, ALT5 disclosed that its outside auditor resigned the same day the company fired CFO Hugh.
