The AI stock fell 10% in morning trading on the stock exchange today, to 30.48.

Kerrisdale Capital stated in a blog: "C3’s fiscal year concludes on April 30. We have asked Deloitte review our letter as it prepares to conduct the company's audit at year's end."

The letter continued: "In this letter, we discuss unbilled receivables at levels that we have never seen before in software companies." The financial disclosures were opaque, confusing, and extremely concerning, especially in relation to Baker Hughes (BKR), the company's large and related customer.
