On May 6, 2021, market analyst Hindenburg Research released a report entitled “PureCycle: The Latest Zero-Revenue ESG SPAC Charade, Sponsored By The Worst Of Wall Street[.]” The report stated that “PureCycle represents the worst qualities of the [special purpose acquisition company] SPAC boom; another quintessential example of how executives and SPAC sponsors enrich themselves while hoisting unproven technology and ridiculous financial projections onto the public markets, leaving retail investors to face the ultimate consequences.” The report also stated that “[w]e consulted with a 30-year expert on polymers, with a background in advanced plastics recycling. He told us the company's patent is ‘indirect’, ‘vague’ and a 'regurgitation of prior art[,]” and that “[o]ur expert also referred to the company’s flammable pressurized process as a ‘bomb[.]’” Further the report stated that Hindenburg Research connected with “multiple former employees” of earlier companies that “PureCycle’s Chairman/CEO and other associated executives” took public before PureCycle, “who said that PureCycle's executives based their financial projections on ‘wild ass guessing’, brought companies public far too early, and had deceived investors.”

On this news, PureCycle's share price fell $9.79 per share, or 39%, to close at $14.83 per share on May 6, 2021.
