Class period Start06/08/2020
Class period End08/23/2023
Claim deadlineTactile Systems Technology (TCMD) settles $5 million with Investors.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements, and/or failed to disclose adverse information regarding Tactile’s business and operations, and/or engaged in fraudulent schemes and misconduct, specifically:
- to induce sales growth of Tactile’s advanced pneumatic compression devices (“PCDs”), Tactile and/or its employees were engaged in illicit sales and marketing activities involving kickback schemes and the submission of false claims to federal healthcare programs in violation of applicable federal statutes;
- Tactile’s revenues were in part the product of unlawful conduct and were thus unsustainable;
- while Tactile publicly touted a $4 plus or $5 plus billion market opportunity for its advanced PCDs, in truth, the total addressable market was at least three times smaller;
- Tactile overstated its revenue from the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services; and
- as a consequence, Defendants’ fraudulent misconduct and false and misleading public statements caused Tactile securities to trade at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period until the true nature of Defendants’ alleged wrongdoing was disclosed, and the prices of Tactile securities fell, causing damages to Lead Plaintiff and other Members of the Class.
