Case Background:
A class action lawsuit was filed on behalf of those who purchased or acquired Medtronic plc (“Medtronic”) (NYSE: MDT) securities between June 8, 2019 and May 25, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts, about the company’s business and operations by failing to disclose that: (1) Medtronic’s product quality control systems were inadequate; (2) Medtronic had failed to comply with numerous regulations regarding risk assessment, corrective and preventive action, complaint handling, device recalls, and reporting of adverse events; (3) these failures increased the risk of regulatory investigation and action; (4) as a result of the company’s misconduct, the FDA would delay the approval of additional Medtronic MiniMed devices, including the MiniMed 780G; (5) these delays in product approvals, as well as the company’s need to improve its quality control systems, would negatively affect Medtronic’s financial performance and cause it to fall further behind its competitors; and (6) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about the company’s business, operations, and prospects lacked a reasonable basis.
Current Status of Case:
On March 31, 2023, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the action. That Motion has been fully briefed and awaiting the Court’s ruling. This action is ongoing.
