Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. reminds shareholders of Unilife Corporation (“Unilife” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:UNIS) of an upcoming deadline involving a securities fraud lawsuit commenced against the Company. A complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities that purchased the common stock of Unilife between February 3, 2014 and May 23, 2016, inclusive (the “Class Period”), alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company and certain of its officers (the “Complaint”).
The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements, and omitted materially adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations and prospects. Specifically, the Complaint alleges that the defendants concealed from the investing public: (1) that the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and former Chairman of the Board of Directors had violated the Company’s policies and procedures and had engaged in violations of law and regulation; (2) that the Company lacked adequate internal controls over accounting and financial reporting; (3) that, as a result, the Company would be unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2016 by the prescribed filing deadline; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s financial statements, as well as Defendants’ statements about Unilife’s business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. As a result of defendants’ alleged false and misleading statements, the Company’s stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 25, 2016. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Any member of the proposed 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.
