In a recent press release, Pomerantz LLP, a renowned securities law firm based in New York City, announced that it is investigating potential claims on behalf of investors of STAAR Surgical Company (STAAR). The investigation comes after allegations of possible violations of federal securities laws. Here’s what you need to know about this development and its potential implications.
The Allegations Against STAAR Surgical Company
According to the press release, Pomerantz LLP is investigating potential claims related to allegedly misleading statements made by STAAR regarding the commercial prospects of its iStent inject® Trabecular Micro-Bypass System. The iStent is a micro-invasive glaucoma surgery device designed to improve the aqueous fluid drainage in the eye to reduce intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma.
The investigation centers around whether STAAR and certain of its executives and directors made false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material information during the class period, which is believed to have begun on May 11, 2021, and ended on November 9, 2021. The alleged misstatements and omissions are said to have artificially inflated the Company’s stock price.
Implications for Investors
If Pomerantz LLP’s investigation reveals that STAAR and its executives and directors have indeed violated federal securities laws, investors who purchased or otherwise acquired STAAR securities during the class period may be entitled to recover their losses.
