What is this Case About: Rite Aid Corporation (RAD) Misrepresented the Number of New Members Added by its Elixir Subsidiary

According to the complaint, Rite Aid's Pharmacy Services segment provides an integrated suite of pharmacy benefit management (“PBM”) offerings through, inter alia, the Company’s Elixir subsidiary, including technology solutions, mail delivery services, specialty pharmacy, network and rebate administration, claims adjudication, and pharmacy discount programs. During the class period, defendants touted the growth of Elixir's PBM services business. In particular, in a letter to shareholders dated June 10, 2022, the Company noted that the "Elixir account and sales teams are gaining momentum, and we are executing more efficiently by consolidating functions. And the market is noticing—we have added 34,000 individuals covered by Elixir’s PBM services since January 1, 2022, with many more in the pipeline.” The Company continued to express positive results for Elixir's PBM.

However, despite representations to the contrary, defendants failed to disclose that the number of new members (i.e., “lives”) that the Elixir PBM services business was adding during the selling season ending on January 1, 2023, was in material decline; and (ii) Rite Aid was likely to recognize a significant charge for the impairment of goodwill related to Elixir due to a decrease in “lives” covered by Elixir’s PBM services business. On September 29, 2022, Rite Aid announced a $252.2 million charge for the impairment of goodwill related to the Company's Elixir subsidiary based on "an update to our estimate of lives for 2023 based on the latest selling season,” and that Rite Aid “expected[ed] lives to go down.” On this news, Rite Aid's stock price fell $1.97 per share, or over 28%, to close at $5.06 per share on September 29, 2022.
