What is this Case About: According to the complaint, between May 12, 2021 and March 11, 2022, defendants failed to disclose to investors that a significant number of Apyx’s Advanced Energy products were used for off-label indications and that such off-label uses led to an increase in the number of medical device reports filed by Apyx reporting serious adverse events. As a result, the Company was reasonably likely to incur regulatory scrutiny, which would adversely impact its financial results.
On March 14, 2022, Apyx disclosed that the FDA would be posting a Medical Device Safety Communication (“MDSC”) related to the Company’s Advanced Energy Products. The Company further disclosed that “[b]ased on our initial interactions with the FDA, we believe the Agency’s MDSC will pertain to the use of our Advanced Energy products outside of their FDA-cleared indication for general use in cutting, coagulation, and ablation of soft tissue during open and laparoscopic surgical procedures.” On this news, the Company’s stock fell $4.02, or over 40%, to close at $5.66 per share on March 14, 2022.
