INVESTIGATION ALERT: The Schall Law Firm Announces it is Investigating Claims Against Becton, Dickinson and Company and Encourages Investors with Losses to Contact the Firm

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces that it is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Becton, Dickinson and Company (“Becton Dickinson” or “the Company”) (NYSE: BDX) for violations of the securities laws.

The investigation focuses on whether the Company issued false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose information pertinent to investors. Becton Dickinson’s Alaris infusion pumps suffered from software errors and alarm issues. The Company invested its resources in remediation efforts instead of software upgrades to “make enhancements.” These software errors were likely to cause regulatory delays for the Company, and it would be forced to recall Alaris pumps from some customers. Based on these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Becton Dickinson, investors suffered damages.
