Reckitt Benckiser Group plc (RBGLY) agreed to pay $19.6 million to settle a securities class action lawsuit to avoid further litigation.
The Complaint alleged that before and during the Class Period, Reckitt and its most senior executives perpetrated a scheme, which generated over $3 billion in proceeds, to facilitate opiate abuse among U.S. consumers and mislead investors and the public regarding the health and safety risks of Reckitt’s new key opiate product, Suboxone Film. Specifically, the Complaint alleged that in order to maintain and grow profits, senior executives at Reckitt devised a plan to switch prescribers from Suboxone Tablets to the Company’s new proprietary treatment, Suboxone Film, and that as a result of Defendants' false and misleading statements and/or omissions regarding the scheme to inflate sales of Suboxone Film during the Class Period, Reckitt ADSs traded at artificially inflated prices.
