About the Lawsuit

Teva Pharmaceutical and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws. 

On August 3, 2017, Teva disclosed the recording of a goodwill impairment charge of $6.1 billion for Q2 2017 related to the acquisition of Actavis Generics as a result of poor performance in its U.S. generics sector, as well as lower overall expected poor performance due to increased competition and delays in product launches.

On this news, the price of Teva Pharmaceutical’s shares plummeted.
