Faruqi & Faruqi Investigates Viatris Claims Amid Stock Downfall
Ongoing Investigation into Viatris, Inc.
The prominent national securities law firm, Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, has announced that it is investigating claims related to Viatris, Inc. This scrutiny comes amidst serious concerns about the company's compliance with federal securities laws, specifically regarding alleged misstatements and omissions from its executives that may have resulted in significant financial losses for investors.
The investigation particularly targets events between August 8, 2024, and February 26, 2025, a period during which many investors reported substantial losses exceeding $100,000. Investors affected by these circumstances have until June 3, 2025, to file for the role of lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit against Viatris. Those interested can directly contact partner Josh Wilson at Faruqi & Faruqi for more information.
Background of the Claims
The main allegations against Viatris center around purported inaccuracies in the company's financial outlook and the risks involved, particularly following a critical inspection failure at its Indore facility by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The complaint asserts that Viatris executives downplayed the severity and impact of this inspection failure and its consequences on their financial stability and growth projections.
On February 27, 2025, Viatris disclosed disappointing financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2024, alongside underwhelming guidance for fiscal 2025. The company attributed the below-expectation guidance to anticipated financial implications stemming from the FDA warning letter and subsequent import alert impacting the Indore facility. Following the announcement, Viatris’s stock fell from $11.24 to $9.53 within a day, translating to a sharp decline of approximately 15.21%. This stark drop highlighted the immediate adverse effects on investor confidence and company valuation.
