STEVENSON, Md., Aug. 31, 2017 -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of purchasers of Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. (Nasdaq:OCUL) (“Ocular” or the “Company”) securities during the period between May 5, 2017 and July 6, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors who wish to become proactively involved in the litigation have until September 5, 2017 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.
If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to accept a settlement for the class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Ocular securities during the Class Period. Members of the class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. No class has yet been certified in the above action.
The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants’ failure to disclose during the Class Period DEXTENZA’s manufacturing issues, including that more than 50% of lots manufactured by Ocular contained bad product, and that such manufacturing issues could endanger the approval of DEXTENZA by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
According to the complaint, following a July 6, 2017 report regarding the manufacturing issues, the value of Ocular shares declined significantly.
If you have suffered a loss in excess of $100,000 from investment in Ocular securities purchased on or after May 5, 2017 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you, please visit our website at http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html.
