According to the Complaint, the Company failed to disclose and/or materially misstated its true financial and business condition because: (i) the Company engaged in illegal and/or unethical off label marketing of Subsys(R); (ii) the Company was exposed to potential fines and other disciplinary actions as a result of its Subsys marketing practices; and, (iii) as a result, the Company's financial statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
On December 12, 2013, after the market closed, the company announced that, "it has received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") in connection with an investigation of potential violations involving HHS programs. The subpoena requests documents regarding Subsys, including INSYS' sales and marketing practices relating to this product." This caused the Company's shares to fall $7.73 per share, or over 17%.
On May 8, 2014, a news source published an article detailing charges against a Michigan doctor who allegedly accounted for 20% of total nationwide Subsys prescriptions. The doctor was charged by federal prosecutors with defrauding Medicare, private insurers, and prescribing unnecessary medications to patients. This caused the Company's shares to fall $6.64 per share, or over 16%.
On May 11, 2014, analyst firm, Bronte Capital, published a report further highlighting the claims against the Michigan doctor, and the problems attendant in INSYS'' marketing of Subsys, including allegedly illegal off-label marketing. This caused INSYS shares to fall $5.04 per share, or 15%.
