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

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP (“GPM”), a national investors rights law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased eHealth, Inc. ("eHealth" or the Company") (NASDAQ: EHTH) securities between March 19, 2018 and April 7, 2020, inclusive (the “Class Period”). eHealth investors have until June 8, 2020 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

If you suffered a loss on your eHealth investments or would like to inquire about potentially pursuing claims to recover your loss under the federal securities laws, you can submit your contact information here or contact Charles H. Linehan, of GPM at 310-201-9150, Toll-Free at 888-773-9224, via email [e-mail] or visit our website at www.glancylaw.com to learn more about your rights.

On April 8, 2020, Muddy Waters Research published a report alleging, among other things, that eHealth misled investors regarding member churn and revenue recognition. The report stated that the Company's “member churn . . . skyrocketed” and “that EHTH is pursuing low quality, lossmaking growth while its LTVs are based on lower churn, pre-growth cohorts.”

On this news, eHealth's stock price fell $12.82, nearly 12%, to close at $103.20 per share on April 8, 2020, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) its highly aggressive accounting and modeling assumptions; (2) its skyrocketing rate of member churn, resulting from eHealth’s pursuit of low quality, lossmaking growth; (3) its reliance on direct response television advertising, which attracts an unprofitable, high churn enrollee; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
