Event Summary

A securities class action lawsuit has been filed against TransMedics by Berger Montague on behalf of investors who purchased its securities between February 28, 2023, and January 10, 2025. The lawsuit alleges that TransMedics and its senior executives misled investors by failing to disclose the use of kickbacks, fraudulent overbilling, coercive tactics, and concealed safety issues. These allegations first surfaced when Paul Gosar sent a letter to TransMedics on February 21, 2024, accusing it of misappropriating corporate resources and gouging transplant centers, causing a 2.5% drop in TransMedics's stock. Further accusations by Scorpion Capital in a report on January 10, 2025, regarding overbilling hospitals and providing rejected organs, led to an additional 5% decline in TransMedics's shares, followed by another 6.9% drop on January 13, 2025.
