Case Background:
On February 23, 2018, the initial complaint in this securities class action was filed against MiMedx Group Inc. (“MiMedx” or the “Company”), and certain of MiMedx’s directors and officers, asserting violations of sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that (i) MiMedx was engaged in a "channel-stuffing" scheme designed to inappropriately recognize revenue that had not yet been realized; (ii) the Company lacked adequate internal controls over financial reporting; and (iii) that as a result of the foregoing, MiMedx's publicly disseminated financial statements were materially false and misleading.
This securities class action lawsuit was brought on behalf of all persons or entities that purchased or otherwise acquired the publicly traded common stock of MiMedx between March 7, 2013 and June 29, 2018, inclusive, and who were damaged thereby.
