Veritone

3 serious warning signs in Veritone’s filings.

We look for five warning signs: doubt it can keep going, weak checks on its own accounts, a notice that its past accounts can't be relied on, a change of auditor, and one customer bringing in a big share of sales. We don't check lawsuits, investigations or debt yet.

We checked the auditor's report, internal controls, restatement notices, auditor changes and big customers in the 10-K filed 15 Apr 2026, plus the 10-Q filed 13 Aug 2026 and 9 later 8-Ks.

• Doubt it can keep going

  Serious

  The company or its auditor warned it may not have enough money to last the next year.

  “However, due to the Company’s projected cash needs combined with its current liquidity level and history of net losses and cash used to fund operating activities, there is substantial doubt regarding its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.”

• Weak checks on its own accounts

  Serious

  The company said its checks on its own accounts did not work at the end of its latest quarter. Mistakes could slip into the numbers.

  “Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.”
