Case Allegations
Edwards is an international company that researches, develops, and provides products and technologies for heart valve repair and replacement therapies, as well as critical care monitoring solutions.
The Edwards class action lawsuit alleges that Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and concealed material adverse facts concerning Edwards’s core product, Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (“TAVR”). Specifically, Defendants’ misstatements stressed commitment to the TAVR platform and confidence in the Company’s ability to capitalize on a subset of untreated patients through scaling of its various patient activation activities, and continued claims of significant demand in allegedly lower-penetrated markets.
The truth began to emerge on July 24, 2024, when Edwards reported disappointing financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and slashed its revenue guidance for the TAVR platform for the 2024 fiscal year. Edwards attributed TAVR’s poor performance on the “continued growth and expansion of structural hear therapies . . . [which] put pressure on hospital workflows.” In other words, the development of new procedures, including some of Edwards’s own, placed significant strain on hospital structural heart teams to the point they were not using TAVR. Further, Edwards announced three acquisitions during the second quarter aimed at strengthening its therapy platforms alternative to TAVR, further indicating it was aware the TAVR platform faced reduced growth.
In response to this news, Edwards’s stock price fell $27.25 per share, or nearly 32%.
