LivePerson, Inc. (LPSN) Securities Fraud Class Action:
The complaint challenges LivePerson's repeated assurances that it maintained effective internal disclosure controls and hyping of its WildHealth business.
According to the complaint, Defendants misrepresented and concealed that: (1) LivePerson failed to address any material weaknesses with its internal controls; (2) WildHealth received a notice that Medicare was suspending reimbursements for services rendered; and (3) as a result, LivePerson's Q4 2022 revenues would be adversely affected.
The truth began to emerge on Feb. 28, 2023, when the company announced it would not timely file its annual financial report. The company explained that it "requires more time to perform additional review and testing of revenue recognition with respect to a recently discontinued WildHealth program, for which Medicare reimbursement is suspended[.]"
Then, on Mar. 15, 2023, LivePerson reported dismal Q4 2022 financial results and a weak 2023 outlook. The company attributed its disastrous performance to Medicare's reimbursement suspension, revealed that WildHealth was notified of it in Nov. 2022, and announced it recorded a reserve for revenue associated with WildHealth services delivered in Q4 2022 under the Medicare demonstration program.
Finally, on Mar. 16, 2023, LivePerson filed its annual financial report and revealed that there are material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting related to its WildHealth subsidiary transactions.
These events sent the price of LivePerson shares sharply lower.
"We're focused on investors' losses and proving LivePerson misled investors about whether WildHealth was providing reimbursable services under the Medicare program," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
