According to the complaint, Defendants misled investors during the Class Period by misstating and/or failing to disclose that: (1) the clinical study on the use of J-Plasma for dermal resurfacing did not meet its primary efficacy endpoint; (2) the clinical study did not support the Company’s application for regulatory clearance; and, (3) the Company was unlikely to receive regulatory approval of J-Plasma for dermal resurfacing.
“We’re focused on investors’ losses, certain matters flagged in a recent bearish analyst report, and whether investors may have been misled,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
