Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Neumora Therapeutics: What Does It Mean for Investors and the World of Biotech?
On March 18, 2025, Robbins LLP announced that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Neumora Therapeutics, Inc. (NMRA) on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Neumora’s common stock pursuant to the Offering Documents issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (IPO) on September 15, 2023. Neumora is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of neurological disorders.
Impact on Investors
The class action lawsuit alleges that Neumora and certain of its executives and directors made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information regarding the Company’s business, operations, and financial condition, violating the Securities Act of 1933. Specifically, the complaint alleges that Neumora misrepresented the progress and prospects of its lead clinical program, NM-001, for the treatment of Dravet syndrome.
As a result of these alleged misrepresentations, Neumora’s stock price was artificially inflated during the IPO and in the days following, causing investors to suffer significant losses. The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for these investors.
