The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of Veru Inc. (VERU) Investors

The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Veru Inc. (“Veru” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: VERU) common stock between May 11, 2022 and November 9, 2022, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Veru investors have until February 6, 2023 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

On November 9, 2022, the Pulmonary-Allergy Drugs Advisory Committee of the FDA voted against Veru’s Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) for its COVID-19 treatment, sabizabulin, explaining that there was “no direct evidence to support [sabizabulin’s] antiviral activity.”

On this news, Veru’s stock price fell $8.04, or 53.6%, to close at $6.97 per share on November 10, 2022, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants: (1) misled its shareholders to believe that the data from the Phase 3 trial was sufficient to support EUA and even the submission of a New Drug Application without any further studies; (2) concealed the true risks faced by the Company in gaining approval for its EUA request; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
