(“Cerevel” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: CERE) for violations of §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This class action follows the October 11, 2023, announcement of a proposed merger between Cerevel and AbbVie Inc.
Class Members and Deadline
The lawsuit is on behalf of all investors who purchased the Company’s shares between October 11, 2023, and August 1, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”), and/or held shares of Cerevel as of the January 8, 2024, record date and were entitled to vote on the merger, and/or sold shares of Cerevel stock contemporaneously with Bain Capital Investors, LLC’s purchase of shares on or about October 16, 2023.
Allegations
The complaint alleges that Cerevel made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information during the Class Period.
