NEW YORK, Aug. 31, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Progenity, Inc. ("Progenity" or "the Company") (NASDAQ: PROG) and certain of its officers, on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Progenity common stock pursuant and/or traceable to the registration statement, as amended (the "Registration Statement"), issued in connection with Progenity's June 2020 initial public offering ("IPO"). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/prog.

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933.

The Complaint alleges that the Registration Statement for the IPO was negligently prepared and, as a result, contained false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Progenity had overbilled government payors by $10.3 million in 2019 and early 2020 and, thus, had materially overstated its revenues, earnings and cash flows from operations for the historical financial periods provided in the Registration Statement; (2) the Company would need to refund this overpayment in the second quarter of 2020 (the same quarter in which the IPO was conducted), adversely impacting its quarterly results; and (3) Progenity was suffering from accelerating negative trends in the second quarter of 2020 with respect to the Company's testing volumes, revenues and product pricing.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed.
