NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - August 22, 2014) - Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, reminds investors in EDAP TMS SA ("EDAP" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: EDAP) of the October 3, 2014 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action lawsuit filed against EDAP and certain executives.

A complaint has been filed in the United Stated District Court of the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons who purchased EDAP securities between February 1, 2013 and July 30, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period").

The complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws with respect to its disclosures concerning its business, operations, and prospects.

Specifically, the action alleges that during the Class Period, Company made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) EDAP exaggerated the efficacy and safety of its Ablatherm trials; (ii) the occurrence of the adverse events in its trials were understated; and (iii) as a result, the Company's statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On July 28, 2014, FDA staff report stated its concerns about EDAP's adequacy of their test trial methods. The staff report also revealed high rates of adverse events associated with the drug, which the Company had not properly disclosed.
