MultiPlan Corporation (MPLN) Investigation:
The investigation centers on MultiPlan's financial disclosures leading up to- and through- its merger and going public transaction with special purpose acquisition ("SPAC") company Churchill Capital Corp. III.
More specifically, Hagens Berman is investigating the company's and its sponsor's statements about MultiPlan's client base and revenues.
On Nov. 11, 2020, Muddy Waters Capital published a scathing report, "MultiPlan: Private Equity Necrophilia Meets The Great 2020 Money Grab," based in part on its interviews of former MultiPlan executives.
Among other things, Muddy Waters observes: (1) the company and its sponsors concealed the impending loss of MultiPlan's largest client ("UnitedHealthcare", or "UHC") due to UHC's formation of a competitor ("Naviguard") that offers significantly lower prices and fewer conflicts of interest; (2) MultiPlan's financials "have been financially engineered to obscure the decay in its business;" and, (3) "[w]e understand that in 2018, MPLN released revenue reserves, dropping them from approximately 30% to 10% of revenue, which we believe enabled MPLN to show 2018 EBITDA growth amid shrinking sales."
Concluding, Muddy Waters states "MPLN paints a rosy picture of its prospects, but these are inconsistent with the facts: its revenue peaked in 2017, and Naviguard is never once mentioned by management as a threat" and "we are concerned that management's strategy carries the potential to bankrupt MPLN."
"We're focused on investors' losses and whether MultiPlan misrepresented its client base and revenues," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
