According to the Complaint, the Registration Statement and Prospectus filed for Avinger's IPO contained materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: that the Company did not have adequate sales and marketing personnel to increase sales of its lumivascular platform products and to commercialize Pantheris; that Avinger already experienced problems with the robustness of its lumivascular platform devices, including Pantheris; that physicians and hospitals were requiring more extensive and comprehensive training and education on the benefits of Avinger's products to convince them to adopt and implement its lumivascular platform products instead of competing products and procedures available in the market; that the Company would not be able to achieve a rapid ramp rate for increased sales of its lumivascular platform; and that as a result of the above, Avinger was experiencing lower sales and revenues. Following this news, the Company's shares fell in value, causing investors harm according to the Complaint.
