According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) in obtaining the Health Assessment Advisory Service (“HAAS”) contract, MAXIMUS set an unattainable target number of healthcare professionals to recruit and an unattainable target number of assessments; (2) throughout the HAAS contract, MAXIMUS was struggling to recruit, train and ramp-up new health care staff to perform the assessments; (3) the inability to meet its target number of healthcare recruits and target number of assessments, meant MAXIMUS would not earn the performance-based incentive fees from the HAAS contract; and (4) consequently, Defendants’ statements about the Company, its financial condition, and the outlook for its business, including statements about the HAAS contract and the amount of revenue MAXIMUS expected the contract to contribute, lacked a reasonable basis when made. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
