ALEXION NOTIFICATION: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses In Excess Of $100,000 Investing In Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. To Contact The Firm

NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Alexion" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ALXN).

The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by engaging in inappropriate sales practices.

Specifically, on November 4, 2016, Alexion abruptly cancelled an appearance at the Credit Suisse Healthcare Conference and failed to file its quarterly report by market close within its historical two-day window following an earnings announcement on October 27, 2016.

On this news, Alexion's share price fell from $129.00 per share on November 4, 2016 to a closing price of $120.05 on November 7, 2016—a $8.95 or a 6.9% drop.

Then, on November 9, 2016, Alexion revealed that the delay of its quarterly report was due to an investigation being carried out by the audit and finance committee of its board of directors into whether any of its personnel "engaged in sales practices that were inconsistent with company policies and procedures."
