The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed a lawsuit against tech billionaire Elon Musk, accusing him of failing to promptly disclose his ownership of more than 5% of Twitter ahead of his acquisition of the company in 2022.

According to the SEC, Musk began purchasing Twitter shares early in 2022, surpassing the 5% threshold on March 14, 2022.

Under securities laws, Musk was required to disclose his holdings within 10 days, but he didn’t reveal that he owned 9% of Twitter until April 4, which was 11 days later than the legal deadline.

The delay in disclosure is said to have led to a 27% jump in Twitter’s share price after Musk made the announcement.

The SEC also claims that Musk’s actions resulted in an underpayment of at least $150 million for the shares he bought during that period.

In response, Musk’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, defended his client, insisting that Musk had “done nothing wrong.”

Spiro also accused the SEC of running a “multi-year campaign of harassment” against the billionaire.
