Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of Myriad Genetics, Inc. Investors (MYGN)

LOS ANGELES--()--Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP (“GPM”) announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased or otherwise acquired securities of Myriad Genetics, Inc. (“Myriad” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MYGN) between August 13, 2014 through March 12, 2018, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Myriad investors have until June 19, 2018 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

To obtain information or actively participate in the class action, please visit the Myriad case page on our website at www.glancylaw.com/case/myriad-genetics-inc. Investors that suffered losses on their Myriad investments are encouraged to contact Lesley Portnoy of GPM to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 310-201-9150 or by email to shareholders@glancylaw.com.

On March 12, 2018, Myriad disclosed that it received a subpoena from the Department of Health and Human Services in connection with an investigation into possible false Medicare and Medicaid payment claims. The subpoena purportedly requested documents “relating primarily to the Company’s billing to government-funded healthcare programs for the Company’s hereditary cancer testing.”

On this news, Myriad’s share price fell $4.01 per share, or 12.1%, to close at $29.01 per share on March 13, 2018, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Myriad was submitting false or otherwise improper claims for payment under Medicare and Medicaid for Myriad’s hereditary cancer testing; (2) the foregoing conduct would foreseeably subject Myriad to heightened regulatory scrutiny and/or enforcement action; (3) Myriad’s revenues from its hereditary cancer testing were in part the product of improper conduct and unlikely to be sustainable; and (4) as a result, Myriad’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
