AGILON HEALTH, INC. (NYSE: AGL) DEADLINE ALERT: Bernstein Liebhard LLP Reminds Investors of the Deadline to File a Lead Plaintiff Motion in a Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against agilon health, inc.

NEW YORK, April 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bernstein Liebhard LLP:

  • Do you, or did you, own shares of agilon health, inc. (NYSE: AGL)?
  • Did you purchase your shares between November 4, 2022 and January 4, 2024, inclusive?
  • Did you lose money in your investment in agilon health, inc.?
  • Do you want to discuss your rights?

Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action lawsuit that has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased or otherwise acquired agilon health, inc. (“agilon” or the “Company”) common stock between November 4, 2022 and January 4, 2024, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas and alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Complaint”).

If you purchased or acquired agilon common stock, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit agilon health, inc. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Investor Relations Manager Peter Allocco at (212) 951-2030 or pallocco@bernlieb.com.

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than May 20, 2024. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn’t require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.

According to the Complaint, throughout the Class Period, Defendants misled investors about agilon’s medical costs by: (1) touting the Company’s purported visibility into utilization trends and medical costs; (2) failing to disclose increased medical costs that agilon had incurred prior to and during the Class Period due to higher utilization of healthcare by MA patients; (3) falsely stating that its incurred-but-not-reported (IBNR) Reserve was adequate; (4) making false and misleading statements about the effectiveness of its business model; (5) issuing overly optimistic financial guidance; and (6) issuing risk disclosures that were materially false and misleading because they characterized adverse facts that had already materialized as mere possibilities.

As a result of these materially false and misleading statements and omissions, agilon stock traded at artificially high prices during the Class Period as investors were conditioned to believe that the Company’s medical cost expenses were lower than represented. In May 2023, Defendants took advantage and profited enormously by selling hundreds of millions worth of their agilon stock through the SPO at the inflated price of $21.50 per share.

On January 5, 2024, agilon surprised investors by lowering its 2023 profit forecasts for the second time in three months. Specifically, agilon reduced its 2023 Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA outlooks by more than $110 million and $73 million, respectively. Agilon also announced that its Chief Financial Officer, Timothy Bensley, would retire and be replaced later in the year.

On this news, agilon’s common stock price fell $3.45 per share, or over 28%, to close at $8.63 per share on January 5, 2024.
