SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses In Excess Of $100,000 Investing In Adeptus Health Inc. To Contact The Firm Before Lead Plaintiff Deadline

NEW YORK, Oct. 28, 2016 -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, reminds investors in Adeptus Health Inc. (“Adeptus” or the “Company”) (NYSE:ADPT) of the December 27, 2016 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action lawsuit filed against the Company and certain officers.

The lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas on behalf of all those who purchased Adeptus Class A common shares pursuant to the Company’s secondary public offering (the “SPO”) on or about July 31, 2015, or common shares between April 23, 2015 and November 16, 2015 (the “Class Period”).  The case, Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System v. Adeptus Health Inc. et al, No. 6:16-cv-01243 was filed on October 27, 2016.

The lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by engaging in potential predatory billing practices, particularly with respect to lower acuity level patients.

Specifically, on November 17, 2015, KUSA, an NBC-affiliated television station located in Denver, Colorado, aired a 9WANTS To Know investigative report about the billing practices at Adeptus Health's Colorado First Choice emergency rooms (“ERs”). The report concluded that, after alleged months of investigation, the Company’s ERs routinely treated lower acuity patients at urgent care facilities and excessively billed them for the services rendered.

In response to the airing of the KUSA investigative report, Adeptus’s share price fell from $59.87 per share on November 16, 2015 to a closing price of $46.50 on November 17, 2015—a $13.37 or a 22.3% drop. Furthermore, the stock price has continued to decline since the SPO.
