Plaintiff's law firm issued a press release on September 14, 2018, announcing the filing of the lawsuit. According to the press release, the Complaint alleges that the Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (1) OPKO and its Chairman and CEO, were engaged in a pump-and-dump scheme with several other individuals and companies in their investments in several penny stocks; (2) the illicit scheme allowed the Company to report revenues from this illegal conduct and would result in governmental scrutiny including a complaint filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and (3) consequently, Defendants' statements about OPKO's business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
