Case Background:
This is a class action on behalf of persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired CVS Health Corporation securities from May 3, 2023 through April 30, 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) the forecasts CVS used to determine plan premiums were ineffective at accounting for medical cost trends and health care utilization patterns; (2) as a result, CVS was likely to incur significant expenses to cover cost increases that were not accounted for in the company’s forecasts and thus not covered by plan premiums; (3) accordingly, CVS had overstated the profitability of its Health Care Benefits segment; (4) contrary to Defendants’ assurances, the revenues generated from the company’s other primary segments were insufficient to offset the negative financial impact of the increasing expenditures within the Health Care Benefits segment; and (5) as a result, the company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
Current Status of Case:
