About the Lawsuit

HeartWare and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws. 

On September 9, 2015, HeartWare disclosed that it was halting enrollment in the trial for MVAD, a pump that it was developing, because of a manufacturing problem. Thereafter, on October 12, 2015, HeartWare disclosed that patients had suffered adverse events and the trial would be further delayed.  Finally, on January 11, 2016, HeartWare revealed that approximately half of the patients implanted with the MVAD experienced serious adverse events and the trial would be delayed indefinitely. Following these announcements, the price of HeartWare's stock plummeted.
