The Gross Law Firm notifies investors that a class action has commenced in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on behalf of shareholders of Viatris Inc. who purchased securities between August 8, 2024 and February 26, 2025.
According to the complaint, defendants provided investors with material information concerning the failed inspection of Viatris’ Indore, India facility. Defendants’ statements misrepresented the FDA’s issuance of a warning letter and its impact on Viatris' operations. Defendants routinely referred to the impact of the warning letter as a mere “minor headwind” for the Company. On February 27, 2025, Viatris announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2024 and provided disappointing fiscal 2025 guidance. The Company attributed below-expectation guidance on “the expected financial impact from Indore facility warning letter and import alert.” Following this news, the price of Viatris’ common stock declined dramatically. From a closing market price of $11.24 per share on February 26, 2025, Viatris’ stock price fell to $9.53 per share on February 27, 2025, a decline of about 15.21% in the span of just a single day.
