Case Background:
This is a federal securities fraud class action lawsuit on behalf of those who purchased or otherwise acquired Biogen Inc. (“Biogen”) (NASDAQ: BIIB) securities between September 14, 2020 and November 14, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the company's business, operations, and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Biogen had overstated its efforts to enhance its transparency, corporate governance, and compliance controls and procedures, as well as the efficacy of those controls and procedures; (2) Tecfidera and Leqembi, two of Biogen’s drugs for the treatments of multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease, faced significant competition from the generic market; (3) as a result, Biogen conspired with pharmacy benefits managers (“PBMs”) to suppress competition from generic versions of the drugs to lessen the losses; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about the company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
Current Status of Case:
On February 18, 2025, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint. The Motion has been fully briefed and is pending a decision before the Court. This action is ongoing.
