The founder and former Chief Executive officer of digital advertising technology company Kubient has pleaded guilty to reporting fraudulent financial statements at the time of the company's initial public offering.
"Paul Roberts, the founder and former CEO of Kubient, inflated his company's revenue and lied about the performance of one of its signature products, an AI-powered tool that was supposed to detect ad fraud in the digital advertising industry," U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said.
