As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) Semler Scientific did not disclose a material investigation by the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) into violations of the False Claims Act, while discussing possible violations of the False Claims (and aggressive DOJ enforcement thereof) in hypothetical terms; and (2) as a result, defendants public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.
After trading hours on February 28, 2025, Semler Scientific filed with the SEC its 2024 annual report on Form 10-K. The annual report disclosed that on February 11, 2025, Semler Scientific “began initial settlement discussions with DOJ [(the United States Department of Justice)], but ceased initial discussions on that date. Accordingly, there is a risk that DOJ will file a complaint or complaint in intervention in a civil False Claims Act lawsuit seeking damages. [Semler Scientific] does not believe the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.”
On this news, Semler Scientific’s stock fell over 9% on the next trading day.
The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.
