Investment Alert: Legal Action Against Pacira BioSciences
In a significant update for investors, Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (KSF), led by former Louisiana Attorney General Charles C. Foti, Jr., has issued a reminder regarding an ongoing class action lawsuit against Pacira BioSciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCRX). This lawsuit is particularly relevant for individuals who incurred losses exceeding $100,000 during the specified time frame. Investors must submit their lead plaintiff applications by March 14, 2025, in order to be considered for participation in the lawsuit.
Background of the Lawsuit
The class action targets Pacira and certain executives for allegedly failing to disclose essential information during the defined class period spanning from August 2, 2023, to August 8, 2024. These omissions are alleged violations of federal securities laws, which have led to widespread financial repercussions for many shareholders.
A notable event occurred on August 9, 2024, when Pacira announced the results of its litigation against eVenus, concerning patent rights related to the company's Exparel product. This product is crucial for Pacira, generating about 80% of its revenue. Unfortunately, the court ruled that Pacira's U.S. Patent No. 11,033,495 was invalid, thereby confirming that eVenus did not infringe upon any patent rights. As a consequence of this news, Pacira's stock price plummeted by over 47%, a dramatic fall from $22.36 per share on August 8, 2024, to a low of $11.70 the following day.
