On September 15, 2021, a short-seller report was published on Berkeley Lights, Inc.. The report alleged, among other things, that "a trail of customers who allege they were 'tricked,' misled, or over-promised into buying a $2 million lemon. The reality is so far from BLI's grandiose hype that we believe its product claims and practices may constitute outright fraud." Additionally stating, "We conducted 24 research interviews, including 7 former employees and executives of BLI, as well as 17 scientists and users across 14 of BLI's largest customers. We believe the customers we spoke with comprise >30-50% of BLI's entire installed base of 92 cell screening systems. We believe our research may represent the most in-depth due diligence to date on BLI, leading us to conclude it is just another vaporous venture capital IPO promotion with zero underlying value."
