Foundation Accused of Making Reckless Financial Projections
According to the complaint, Foundation officials misled investors regarding the Medicare reimbursement process for its tumor tests. In addition, the company reported strong 2015 financial guidance that allegedly caused its shares to trade at inflated prices. On July 29, 2015, Foundation disclosed that it would not be reimbursed by Medicare due to a delay in receiving a local coverage determination from its regional Medicare Administrative Contractor. As a result, Foundation slashed its previously projected revenues and revised the expected volume of clinical tests downward, causing the company's stock to decline approximately 24%, or $7 per share. Then, on November 3, 2015, Foundation disclosed a further downward revision to its expected volume of clinical tests. On this news, Foundation's stock fell another 27.6%, or $6.62 per share, to close at $17.31 per share on November 4, 2015.
