The FINUDA experiment collected data to study the production of hypernuclei on different nuclear targets. The hypernucleus formation occurred through the strangeness-exchange reaction $K^-_{stop} + ; ^AZ rightarrow ; ^A_{Lambda}Z + pi^-$. From the analysis of the momentum of the emerging $pi^-$, binding energies and formation probabilities of $^7_{Lambda}$Li, $^9_{Lambda}$Be, $^{13}_{Lambda}$C and $^{16}_{Lambda}$O have been measured and are here presented. The behavior of the formation probability as a function of the atomic mass number A is also discussed.
