Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Launches Investigation Into Regeneron Pharmaceuticals for Securities Claims

Ongoing Investigation of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals by Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a well-respected national securities law firm, has recently initiated an investigation into potential claims regarding Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. This comes as the firm aims to support investors who may have suffered significant financial losses from their investment in Regeneron, particularly between the dates of November 2, 2023, and October 30, 2024.

This investigation was prompted by serious allegations detailed in a complaint concerning Regeneron’s adherence to federal securities regulations. The complaint asserts that the pharmaceutical company and its executives may have failed to disclose crucial information regarding their financial practices—specifically, that they paid credit card fees to distributors under the condition that these distributors would not charge customers more when using a credit card to purchase their product Eylea.

What stands out in this investigation is the assertion that such payment practices enabled Regeneron to provide an unfair price advantage, thereby misleadingly inflating the reported sales figures of Eylea. According to the claims, this misconduct may have resulted in increased reimbursements from Medicare, due to the reported Average Selling Price (ASP) being artificially higher than it should have been. Not only does this raise significant legal concerns, but it also calls into question the integrity of Regeneron's reported financial health.

On April 10, 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a complaint against Regeneron, highlighting these alleged failures in reporting discounts and misrepresentations in their sales data. As the investigation unfolds, there could be serious implications for the company, especially if it's determined that executives intended to mislead investors about the business's true financial state.

Investor reactions have been swift and pronounced. Following the revelations, shares of Regeneron saw a notable decline, dropping over $31 within two days and signaling a troubling response from the market. The dramatic swings in stock price reflect growing investor concerns about the company’s transparency and future profitability.

The upcoming March 10, 2025, deadline is crucial for investors wishing to participate in the legal proceedings against Regeneron. This presents a pivotal moment for those who may have incurred losses exceeding $100,000. Faruqi & Faruqi's partner, Josh Wilson, is urging such investors to get in touch directly to discuss their options and possibly engage further in the proceedings as lead plaintiffs.

For those who believe they may have pertinent information, including whistleblowers or former employees, Faruqi & Faruqi is actively seeking communication to bolster their case. They are committed to ensuring that any potential wrongdoing is thoroughly investigated and addressed.

As this inquiry progresses, investors and stakeholders should stay informed and engaged, as the outcomes could greatly impact both the company's reputation and its financial standing in the future. For additional details or to learn more about how to get involved in this matter, individuals can reach out to Faruqi & Faruqi directly through their various contact channels.

In light of these developments, the financial community will undoubtedly be watching closely to see how Regeneron navigates these challenging allegations and what ramifications follow for its future operations and investor relations.
