The filed complaint alleges that defendants made false statements and/or concealed that: (i) the forecasts CVS used to determine plan premiums were ineffective at accounting for medical cost trends and health care utilization patterns; (ii) as a result, CVS was likely to incur significant expenses to cover cost increases that were not accounted for in the Company’s forecasts and thus not covered by plan premiums; (iii) accordingly, CVS had overstated the profitability of its health care benefits segment; (iv) contrary to defendants’ assurances, the revenues generated from the Company’s other primary segments were insufficient to offset the negative financial impact of the increasing expenditures within the health care benefits segment; and (v) as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
In order to be included in the lawsuit, you must have incurred a loss on shares of CVS purchased or acquired during the class period listed above.
If you suffered a loss in CVS during the relevant time frame, you have until September 10, 2024 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn't require that you serve as a lead plaintiff.
