About this case

According to the complaint, Endava and certain of its executives misled investors about the company’s customer agreements and accounting practices. The complaint alleges that Endava touted contract extensions with major clients while failing to disclose that its accounting treatment of certain extensions and related client credits was improper, potentially rendering its reported financial results materially misleading. The truth allegedly emerged on September 21, 2026, when Endava announced that CFO Mark Thurston had been placed on administrative leave pending an investigation by independent outside counsel for the board’s Audit Committee into accounting concerns involving customer and supplier agreements. On this news, Endava’s shares fell approximately 24% to close at $2.11 on September 22, 2026, and declined further to $1.70 on September 24. Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Endava shares between September 4, 2025, and September 21, 2026, inclusive, may have legal rights.

The allegations, in plain terms

  1. September 4, 2025
    The class period begins. Per the complaint, Endava promoted contract extensions with major clients during this period.
  2. September 2025 – September 2026

  3. September 21–22, 2026
    Endava disclosed that CFO Mark Thurston had been placed on administrative leave pending an investigation by outside counsel for the board's Audit Committee into accounting concerns involving customer and supplier agreements.

Selective

We screen hundreds of stock drops every year and file only a handful. If we're investigating this one, it's because we believe in it.

Senior

Block & Leviton is run by the partners whose names are on the door — and our clients deal with them directly, whatever the size of the loss. That's the point of staying small.

Staying power

A dismissed case turned into a $150 million record.* A recovery from a company that went bankrupt. We build cases to go the distance — not to settle cheap.

* Subject to court approval. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

Who we are — and why we're involved

Block & Leviton represents investors. We never represent the companies we investigate. When a company's own disclosures reveal that shareholders were misled, we investigate and bring claims to recover those losses.

Our clients are people like you: individual investors, retirees, and pension funds harmed when the truth comes out and a stock falls. There is no cost to you to participate, and attorneys' fees are paid only out of a recovery approved by the court.

A record courts have trusted

Record result

NextEra Energy — $150 million

The district court dismissed the case. We appealed — and won a unanimous reversal in the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. The result: a $150 million settlement — the largest securities class action settlement in the Southern District of Florida in more than 30 years.*

Biogen — $18.9 million*

Dismissed — then revived when we persuaded the court to reconsider its own judgment. Settled in 2026.

Tricida — $14.25 million

Recovered for investors even after Tricida itself went bankrupt.

Federal courts have appointed Block & Leviton lead counsel in securities class actions on behalf of investors nationwide. Our attorneys have recovered billions of dollars for investors, retirees, and pension funds.

Common questions

Will this cost me anything?

No. There is no cost to submit your information, no cost to participate, and no out-of-pocket cost ever. If there's a recovery, attorneys' fees are paid from it and must be approved by the court.

I'm already part of the class automatically — so why submit my information?

It's true: if you bought DAVA during the class period, you're a class member whether or not you contact anyone. Submitting your information lets us evaluate your specific losses, keep you informed as the case develops, and tell you whether you may benefit from a larger role in the case.

What is a lead plaintiff?

The lead plaintiff is an investor the court appoints to represent the class, typically someone with a significant loss. Lead plaintiffs oversee the litigation on behalf of everyone and are entitled to seek reimbursement for their time. The deadline to seek appointment in this case is November 30, 2026.

I sold my shares after the drop — am I still eligible?

Possibly, yes. What generally matters is that you purchased shares during the class period and were harmed by the decline. Whether you still hold shares today doesn't necessarily disqualify you — submit your details and we'll evaluate your situation.

Does submitting this form make you my lawyers?

No — and that's a protection for you. Submitting the form only lets us evaluate your potential claim, at no cost. If we determine we can help and you decide to move forward, we'll send you a written retainer agreement that spells out the relationship, the contingency fee, and your rights. You're never committed to anything until you've read and signed it.

What happens after I submit the form?

Our team reviews your submission — usually within one business day. David, our investor liaison, will reach out by phone or email, and our partners are directly involved in every case. You're never obligated to do anything.
