Lawsuit Overview: Skye Bioscience, Inc. Under Fire
On December 18, 2025, Berger Montague, a prominent national plaintiffs' law firm, announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against Skye Bioscience, Inc., a biotechnology firm publicly traded on NASDAQ under the ticker SKYE. This lawsuit targets investors who purchased Skye's securities between November 4, 2024, and October 3, 2025, a time frame designated as the "Class Period".
Allegations Against Skye Bioscience
The core of the lawsuit centers on allegations that Skye Bioscience misled investors regarding the effectiveness of their primary product candidate, nimacimab. The complaint claims that Skye failed to disclose critical information that the efficacy of nimacimab was significantly less than what was presented to stakeholders. As a consequence, it is believed that the clinical and commercial potential of this drug was exaggerated, leading to misleading expectations and financial losses for those who invested during this period.
Financial Impact of the Allegations
On October 6, 2025, after Skye disclosed disappointing results from their 26-week Phase 2a CBeyond proof-of-concept study of nimacimab, there was a dramatic collapse in its stock value. The company announced that it did not meet the primary endpoint of achieving an 8% difference in weight loss compared to a placebo, which led to a staggering drop in share price of $2.85, or a 60% decline, bringing the price down to $1.90 at the close of the trading day.
Class Action Participation
Investors who acquired Skye’s securities during the designated Class Period have until January 16, 2026, to apply for appointment as lead plaintiff representatives in the class action. This is a crucial timeline for those looking to protect their financial interests and seek restitution for their losses.
