Event Summary

Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer announced that a class action lawsuit has been filed against PROCEPT BioRobotics Corporation (NASDAQ: PRCT) on behalf of purchasers of PROCEPT common stock between February 28, 2024 and February 25, 2026. The complaint alleges that PROCEPT's discount program caused handpiece orders to materially exceed procedures in every quarter during the Class Period, contrary to assurances that the differential had remained relatively consistent. These undisclosed sales tactics allegedly artificially inflated reported U.S. handpiece unit sales and revenues by pulling forward demand at the expense of future periods. Investors have until September 22, 2026 to move for lead plaintiff.
