Background on the Eargo Securities Class Litigation

Eargo, headquartered in San Jose, California, is a manufacturer of rechargeable hearing aids. A major portion of the Company’s revenues depends on reimbursements from third-party payor insurance companies.

The action alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Eargo failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the Company had improperly billed certain third-party payors, including its largest such payor; (2) that such actions were likely to lead to regulatory scrutiny; and (3) that, as a result of the foregoing, Eargo’s positive statements about its business and prospects were false and misleading and lacked any reasonable basis in fact.

On August 12, 2021, the Company disclosed that claims submitted to its largest third-party payor had gone unpaid since March 31, 2021, and that those claims represented 80% of Eargo’s gross account receivables as of June 30, 2021. On this news, the price of Eargo common stock fell $8.00 per share, or 24.46%, from its closing price of $32.70 on August 12, 2021, to close at $24.70 per share on August 13, 2021, on elevated trading volume.

On September 22, 2021, after market close, the Company reported that it was “the target of a criminal investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (the ‘DOJ’) related to insurance reimbursement claims the Company submitted on behalf of its customers covered by federal employee health plans.” As a consequence, Eargo withdrew its financial guidance for fiscal 2021. On this news, the price of Eargo common stock fell $14.81 per share, or 68.34%, from its closing price of $21.67 on September 21, 2021, to close at $6.86 on September 22, 2021, on extremely heavy trading volume.
