The scrutiny follows the bank’s second-quarter 2026 earnings report, which revealed a stark reversal in financial performance. Coastal Financial posted a net loss of $42.1 million, or $2.76 per diluted share, a sharp departure from the $12 million net income reported during the same period last year. This deficit was largely attributed to a $68.8 million credit expense linked to a single, unnamed CCBX partner.

Following the announcement on July 30, 2026, the company’s stock price plummeted from $70.66 to $39.91 in a single trading session. BFA Law is currently reviewing whether prior company disclosures accurately reflected the risks associated with its partner relationships. The firm, known for its work in shareholder litigation, is evaluating potential legal options for investors who suffered losses during this period.
