What's Happening?
Pomerantz LLP has announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against Lantheus Holdings, Inc., alleging securities fraud and other unlawful business practices by the company and certain officers. The lawsuit follows Lantheus's financial disclosures
that revealed significant shortfalls in their radiopharmaceutical oncology product, Pylarify, leading to a substantial drop in stock prices. On May 7, 2025, Lantheus reported disappointing first-quarter results, attributing a decrease in Pylarify sales to 'temporal competitive disruption,' which led to a 23.23% drop in stock value. Further disappointing results were announced on August 6, 2025, with a continued decline in Pylarify sales and a 28.58% drop in stock price. Investors who purchased Lantheus securities during the class period have until November 10, 2025, to seek appointment as Lead Plaintiff.

The lawsuit against Lantheus Holdings highlights significant concerns over corporate transparency and the impact of competitive pressures on company performance. The allegations of securities fraud could have far-reaching implications for Lantheus, potentially affecting investor confidence and the company's market valuation.
