(“Inogen” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: INGN) in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on behalf of those who purchased or acquired Inogen between November 8, 2017 and February 26, 2019, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

The filed Complaint alleges that Defendants failed to disclose that:
As a result of this information being withheld from the market, the price of Inogen common stock was artificially inflated to more than $282 per share during the Class Period.
On November 6, 2018, Inogen announced its third quarter 2018 financial results and, while the quarterly financial results were in line with expectations, Defendants revealed that the growth in domestic business-to-business sales to HME providers had slowed and reduced Inogen’s guidance for fiscal 2018 adjusted EBITDA.
As a result of this news, the price of Inogen common stock fell over 19%, or $37.44 per share, to close at $155.86 per share.
Then, following the publication of detailed investigative reports by stock analysts on February 8, 2019 and February 12, 2019, which challenged, among other things, the size of Inogen’s actual TAM, the basis for its prior TAM claims, and the source of its Class Period sales growth, the price of Inogen common stock declined further to close at $138.05 per share on February 12, 2019.
On February 26, 2019, after the close of trading, Inogen announced disappointing fourth quarter and fiscal year 2018 financial results and significantly reduced its previously provided fiscal 2019 net income guidance. Inogen’s CEO also backtracked on the Company’s prior TAM estimate of 2.5 to 3 million patients, and blamed Inogen’s poor domestic business-to-business sales on order activity that slowed from one national homecare provider.
On this news, the price of Inogen common stock fell an additional $33.77 per share, to close of $106.28 per share on February 27, 2019.
