Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP Reminds Investors of Securities Class Action Against Myriad Genetics, Inc. (MYGN) and June 19 Lead Plaintiff Deadline

Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP (“Scott+Scott”), a national securities and consumer rights litigation firm, reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Myriad Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MYGN) (“Myriad” or the “Company”) and other defendants, related to alleged violations of federal securities laws. If you purchased Myriad common stock between August 13, 2014 and March 12, 2018, you are encouraged to contact a Scott+Scott attorney at [phone] for additional information.

Myriad develops and markets molecular diagnostic products for physicians.

The lawsuit alleges that Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Myriad was submitting false or otherwise improper claims for payment under Medicare and Medicaid for the Company’s hereditary cancer testing; (2) the foregoing conduct would foreseeably subject Myriad to heightened regulatory scrutiny and/or enforcement action; (3) Myriad’s revenues from its hereditary cancer testing were in part the product of improper conduct and unlikely to be sustainable; and (4) as a result, Myriad’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On March 12, 2018, post-market, Myriad disclosed that it had received a subpoena from the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General, in connection with “an investigation into possible false or otherwise improper claims submitted for payment under Medicare and Medicaid,” and specifically relating to Myriad’s hereditary cancer test, “myRisk.”

Following this news, Myriad stock fell $4.01 per share, over 12%, to close at $29.01 on March 13, 2018.
