The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz Reminds Investors of Looming Deadline in the Class Action Lawsuit Against Metagenomi, Inc. (MGX)

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz reminds investors of the upcoming November 25, 2024 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action filed on behalf of investors who acquired Metagenomi, Inc. (“Metagenomi” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MGX) securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Company’s February 2024 initial public offering (the “IPO”).

On February 13, 2024, Metagenomi conducted its IPO, selling approximately 6.25 million shares at $15 per share. However, on May 1, 2024, less than three months after the IPO, Metagenomi announced that it and Moderna had “mutually agreed to terminate their collaboration.”

On this news, Metagenomi’s stock price fell $0.87, or 12.4%, to close at $6.17 per share on May 2, 2024.

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 that: (1) Metagenomi’s collaboration with Moderna would not extend into the future but instead terminate in the immediate future; and (2) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
