NEW YORK, April 16, 2018 -- The Klein Law Firm announces that a class action complaint has been filed on behalf of shareholders of Patterson Companies, Inc. (NASDAQ:PDCO) who purchased shares between June 26, 2015 and February 28, 2018. The action, which was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, alleges that the Company violated federal securities laws.
