NEW YORK, March 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Juan Monteverde, founder and managing partner at Monteverde & Associates PC, a boutique securities firm headquartered at the Empire State Building in New York City, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the Southern District of New York against Aratana Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PETX) ("Aratana" or the "Company") on behalf of purchasers of the Company's securities between March 16, 2015 and February 3, 2017, inclusive (the "Class Period").
The lawsuit is based on Aratana making false and/or misleading statements that: (1) Aratana did not have manufacturing contracts in place sufficient to support manufacturing of ENTYCE at a commercial scale; (2) consequently, ENTYCE was not likely to be commercially available until late 2017; (3) accordingly, Aratana had misled investors with respect to the likely timeline for a commercial launch of ENTYCE; and (4) as a result, Aratana's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When this information was revealed to the public, the value of Aratana stock dropped, causing losses to its shareholders.
Mr. Monteverde would like to personally discuss with you how to potentially recover your monetary losses, if incurred during the Class Period.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than April 7, 2017. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
