NEW YORK, Jan. 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi,
LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Psychemedics Corporation
("Psychemedics" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: PMD).
The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose
the potential financial ramifications of litigation being conducted against the company subsidiary in Brazil, Psychemedics Brasil Exames Toxicologicos Ltda.
Specifically, on January 31, 2017, Psychemedics announced that its local representative in
Brazil was ordered on January 20, 2017 to compensate Omega
Laboratories, Inc. USA for losses caused by anticompetitive practice. The 23rd Civil Court of
Brasilia reviewed and upheld the termination of an exclusivity agreement and ordered
Psychemedics to indemnify Omega Laboratories, Inc. USA for, among other things, lost
profits.
After the announcement, Psychemedics'a share price has fallen sharply during intraday trading.
