Los Angeles - (NewMediaWire) - October 6, 2021 - The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm,
announces that it is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Eargo,
Inc. (“Eargo” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: EAR) for
violations of the securities laws.
The investigation focuses on whether the Company
issued false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose information
pertinent to investors. Eargo disclosed on September 22, 2021, that “it is the
target of a criminal investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (the
‘DOJ’) related to insurance reimbursement claims the Company has submitted on
behalf of its customers covered by federal employee health plans.” The Company
admitted that “as previously disclosed, the Company has been the subject of an
ongoing claims audit by an insurance company that is the Company’s largest
third-party payor. The Company has been informed by the insurance company that
the DOJ is now the principal contact related to the subject matter of the
audit.” Eargo also added that it “is withdrawing its financial guidance for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.” Based on this news, shares of Eargo
crashed by more than 68% in intraday trading on September 23, 2021.
