According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Vanda was engaged in a fraudulent scheme in which the Company promoted the off-label use of Fanapt and Hetlioz; (2) Vanda was fraudulently receiving drug reimbursements from the government by abusing Medicare, Medicaid, and Tricare programs; (3) as a result of the scheme, Vanda faced legal action from the government; (4) Vanda's promotional materials for Fanapt and Hetlioz were false and misleading, garnering regulatory scrutiny from the FDA; and (5) as a result, Defendants' statements about Vanda's business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times

On February 11, 2019, Aurelius Value published a report entitled, "Vanda: In the Land of The Blind, The One-Eyed Man in King." This report revealed a previous unreported qui tam lawsuit which disclosed Vanda's years of fraudulent promotion of Fanapt and Hetlioz as well as Vanda's scheme to defraud the government with fraudulent reimbursements.

On this news, shares of Vanda fell $0.95 per share or over 5% to close at $18.00 per share on February 11, 2019, damaging investors.

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than April 26, 2019. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn't require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.
