Greenbacker Renewable Energy Investors Face Significant Losses in MN8 Acquisition KlaymanToskes Represents Greenbacker Investors Seeking to Recover Losses From Brokerage Firms and Financial Advisors

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 13, 2026 / National investment loss and securities law firm KlaymanToskes is currently representing Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company ("Greenbacker") investors seeking to recover investment losses from the brokerage firms and financial advisors that recommended the investment.

Investors who purchased Greenbacker at the recommendation of a brokerage firm or financial advisor are encouraged to contact KlaymanToskes at (888) 997-9956 or [email protected] for a free and confidential consultation to discuss their potential recovery options.

The recently announced acquisition of Greenbacker by MN8 Energy Holdings LLC ("MN8") provides investors with new information concerning the value of their Greenbacker shares. Under the proposed transaction, shareholders are expected to receive consideration valued at approximately $1.71 per share at closing, plus the potential for up to approximately $0.12 per share in additional contingent consideration.

By comparison, Greenbacker shares were historically sold to investors at substantially higher prices. Greenbacker's SEC filings reflect initial offering prices of $10.00 per Class A share, $9.576 per Class C share, and $9.186 per Class I share.

For an investor who purchased Class A shares for $10.00, the estimated $1.71 per-share transaction consideration represents a decline of approximately 83% from the original purchase price.

Greenbacker investors have also endured years of limited liquidity. The company largely suspended its share repurchase program in September 2023 and suspended shareholder distributions following its May 1, 2024 distribution.

"The MN8 transaction provides Greenbacker investors with an important new reference point for evaluating the substantial decline in the value of their investment," said attorney Lawrence L. Klayman. "Investors who were recommended Greenbacker by their financial advisors are entitled to pursue claims against responsible brokerage firms to recover their losses."

According to KlaymanToskes' investigation and its representation of Greenbacker investors, Greenbacker was recommended to customers of brokerage firms including Morgan Stanley, National Securities Corporation, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and Arete Wealth Management LLC, among others.

KlaymanToskes is investigating whether brokerage firms conducted adequate due diligence, disclosed Greenbacker's risks and illiquidity, and determined whether this non-traded investment was suitable for each customer's financial circumstances, risk tolerance and liquidity needs. Greenbacker investors are entitled to pursue FINRA arbitration claims and may be entitled to a financial recovery based upon unsuitable recommendations, misrepresentations and omissions, inadequate due diligence, overconcentration, and failure to supervise.
