Los Angeles, CA - (NewMediaWire) - September 23, 2021 - The Schall
Law Firm, a national shareholder rights
litigation firm, announces that it is investigating claims on behalf of
investors of Eargo, Inc. (“Eargo” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: EAR) for violations of the
securities laws.
The investigation focuses on
whether the Company issued false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to
disclose information pertinent to investors. Eargo disclosed on September 22,
2021, that “it is the target of a criminal investigation by the U.S. Department
of Justice (the ‘DOJ’) related to insurance reimbursement claims the Company
has submitted on behalf of its customers covered by federal employee health
plans.” The Company admitted that “as previously disclosed, the Company has
been the subject of an ongoing claims audit by an insurance company that is the
Company’s largest third-party payor. The Company has been informed by the
insurance company that the DOJ is now the principal contact related to the
subject matter of the audit.” Eargo also added that it “is withdrawing its
financial guidance for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.” Based on this
news, shares of Eargo crashed by more than 68% in intraday trading on September
23, 2021.
