Case Background:
This is a class action lawsuit on behalf of those who purchased or acquired Viatris Inc. ("Viatris") (NASDAQ: VTRS) securities between March 1, 2021 and February 25, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).
At the outset of the Class Period, Viatris announced a multi-phase plan, the first phase of which that would allow it to: (1) create a stable revenue base; (2) realize $1 billion in cost synergies by 2024; and (3) improve cash conversion and free cash flow generation. Defendants claimed that Viatris would achieve its first phase goals through its strong pipeline of new products, including those in its biosimilars business. Defendants further represented that Viatris’s strong pipeline and business development would offset erosion of the company’s base business.
However, contrary to Defendants representations, the company was experiencing significantly more competition in its United States complex generics business than disclosed. As a result, the company was not able to effectively manage its base business erosion or create a stable revenue base. Instead, throughout 2021, Viatris total revenues were declining quarter-over-quarter.
Current Status of Case:
On December 22, 2023, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Class Action Complaint. The Court entered an Opinion and Order on September 20, 2024 granting the Motion to Dismiss and closing the case. On October 21, 2024, Lead Plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal as to the Opinion and Order granting the Motion to Dismiss. This action is on appeal and ongoing.
