GoHealth ( GOCO ) Securities Class Action :

The complaint alleges that GoHealth’s IPO offering documents contained materially false and misleading statements and omissions. Specifically, the offering documents allegedly misrepresented or failed to disclose that: (1) the Medicare insurance industry was undergoing a period of elevated customer churn that began in the first half of 2020; (2) GoHealth’s unique business model and its limited carrier base exposed the company to a higher risk of churn; (3) GoHealth suffered from degradations in customer retention as a result of elevated churn; (4) GoHealth had already entered into materially less favorable revenue sharing arrangements with its external sales agents; and, (5) GoHealth internally projected these adverse trends would continue and worsen after its IPO.
The IPO offering documents allowed GoHealth to go public, issuing 43.5 million shares to investors at $21 per share for total proceeds of about $913.5 million.
However, since the IPO, GoHealth has reported disappointing financial performance resulting from the material facts omitted in the IPO offering documents and its common stock has suffered significant price declines. By Sept. 15, 2020, GoHealth Class A common stock closed at just $12.53 per share, or over 40% below the $21 per share price investors paid for the stock in the IPO less than two months previously.
“We’re focused on investors’ losses and proving GoHealth’s IPO offering documents misrepresented or omitted churn data when going public,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.

Nikola Corporation (NKLA) Securities Class Action :
Class Period: Mar. 3, 2020 - Oct. 6, 2020
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: Nov. 16, 2020
Visit : www.hbsslaw.com/investor-fraud/NKLA
Contact An Attorney Now : NKLA@hbsslaw.com
844-916 - 0895
The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants falsely stated or omitted, among other things, that: (1) Nikola overstated its in-house design, manufacturing, and testing capabilities; (2) exaggerated its hydrogen production capabilities; (3) as a result, Nikola overstated its ability to lower the cost of hydrogen fuel; (4) Nikola founder and Executive Chairman, Trevor Milton, tweeted a misleading test video of the Company’s Nikola Two truck; (5) the work experience and background of key Nikola employees, including Mr. Milton, had been overstated and obfuscated; and (6) Nikola did not have five Tre trucks completed.
Investors learned the truth through a series of partial disclosures, beginning on Sept. 10, 2020, when Hindenburg Research published a scathing report accusing Nikola of lying about its truck’s capabilities, partnerships and products, and ending on Sept. 20, 2020, when Milton abruptly resigned.
These events have driven the price of Nikola shares sharply lower.
Significantly, less than a month before these disclosures, on Aug. 11, 2020, In-Cap, an entity indirectly controlled by Nikola director Jeffrey Ubben, sold 1.4 million Nikola shares at $42.69/share for a total of over $59 million. While Ubben reportedly contends the suspiciously timed sale was forced on him by “investor redemptions,” Hagens Berman is actively investigating the validity of this claim.
Most recently, on Sept. 29, 2020 CNBC reported a second sexual abuse allegation against Milton and that the widely-touted partnership with GM announced earlier in the month is not a “done deal.”
“We’re focused on (i) investors’ losses, (ii) proving Nikola misrepresented its truck’s functionality, its technology and partnerships, and (iii) whether Nikola stakeholders like Ubben engaged in unlawful insider trading,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.

Nano-X Imaging (NNOX) Securities Class Action :
Class Period: Aug. 21, 2020 - Sept. 15, 2020
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: Nov. 16, 2020
Visit : www.hbsslaw.com/investor-fraud/NNOX
Contact An Attorney Now : NNOX@hbsslaw.com
844-916 - 0895
The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants concealed that Nano-X’s: (1) commercial agreements and customers were fabricated; (2) statements regarding its novel Nanox System were misleading; and (3) Nano-X’s submission to the FDA admitted the Nanox System was not original.
Investors allegedly began to learn the truth on Sept. 15, 2020, when Citron Research published a report accusing Nano-X of conducting “the most blatant stock promotion we have seen in years.” Citron challenged Nano-X’s claimed new innovative technology, stating “we have not even seen proof of the product and have only seen a mockup drawing of what this machine is supposed to look like.” Citron also alleged that Nano-X’s commercial agreements “appear to be no more than fake customers.”
Following this report, the price of Nano-X shares crashed sharply lower.
Then, on Sept. 17, 2020 Empire Financial Research issued a report, stating that Nano-X looks like “Theranos 2.0” and that “this stock is worthless.”
Finally, on Sept. 22, 2020 Muddy Waters published a report concluding that Nano-X “is a much bigger piece of garbage than Nikola will ever be,” based on interviews with radiologists and purported distributors. Muddy Waters stated Nano-X’s ARC device “appears to be little more than a futuristic movie prop” and “[i]n fact, an Israeli company that designed a pickup truck used in the movie Jurassic World claims credit for its design.”
“We’re focused on investors’ losses and proving Nano-X misrepresented the status of its X-ray source and commercial agreements,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
