Lead Plaintiff motion deadline
  • FMC allegedly hid reduced patent protection, allowing increased competition from generics.
  • On October 23, 2023, the truth came out, leading to a 13% $FMC fall.
The lawsuit claims that FMC misled investors by not revealing that patent protection for its main products was reduced in India, China and Brazil, allowing more competition.

FMC allegedly provided false information about these legal issues and downplayed the impact of generic competition until at least 2026.

This news caused $FMC fall by 13% and $1.1B loss of market cap, damaging shareholders.

Given all this information, investors have reason to suspect that FMC misled them by not disclosing the crucial patent protection information.
