The filed complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, the Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, and failed to disclose material adverse facts regarding the company’s business, operations and prospects. Specifically, the defendants failed to disclose to investors:
- that a significant number of Apyx’s Advanced Energy products were used for off-label indications;
- that these off-label uses have led to an increase in the number of medical device reports filed by Apyx reporting serious adverse events;
- that, therefore, the Company was reasonably likely to be subject to regulatory review;
- that as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s financial results would be adversely affected; and
- that, as a result of the foregoing, defendants’ positive statements about the company’s business, operations and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked reasonable basis.
On March 14, 2022, Apyx announced that the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) would issue a Medical Device Safety Notice (“MDSC”) regarding the company’s advanced energy products. The Company further revealed that “[b]Based on our initial interactions with the FDA, we believe the Agency’s MDSC will relate to the use of our Advanced Energy products outside of their FDA-approved indication for general use in cutting, coagulation, and soft tissue removal during open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. .”
On this news, shares of the company fell $4.02, or 40.6%, to close at $5.88 per share on March 14, 2022, on unusually high trading volume.
