BENSALEM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased Nobilis Health Corp. (“Nobilis” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: HLTH) securities between May 8, 2018 and November 15, 2018, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Nobilis investors have until February 12, 2019 to file a lead plaintiff motion.
Investors suffering losses on their Nobilis investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com.
On November 9, 2018, Nobilis announced that it is “re-evaluating the Net Realizable Value on its Accounts Receivable and intends to make a significant adjustment to the carrying value of accounts receivable, primarily on out of network claims greater than 365 days old.” The Company filed for additional time to file its 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2018 while the Company and the auditor completed their review of the financial statements. On this news, Nobilis’s share price fell $0.18 per share, or over 25%, to close at $0.52 per share on November 12, 2018, on unusually heavy trading volume, thereby injuring investors.
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the Company’s accounts receivable was overstated; (2) that, as a result, the Company’s revenue was overstated; (3) that, as a result of the required adjustments, the Company’s quarterly report would not be timely filed; (4) that, as a result, the Company would not be in compliance with NYSE listing requirements; and (5) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
