CASE ALLEGATIONS: Walgreens is a global company that delivers retail and pharmacy, and healthcare services.

The Walgreens class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) despite repeated assurances, Walgreens was not disciplined about deploying capital to grow its U.S. Healthcare segment and did not know how to work with and scale the VillageMD model; (ii) Walgreens was not able to profitably scale VillageMD to support Walgreens’ long-term growth initiatives; (iii) Walgreens’ rollout of VillageMD clinics was not going according to plan; (iv) Walgreens’ U.S. Healthcare segment was experiencing slower growth than expected because Walgreens had oversaturated markets with VillageMD clinics, leading these newly created medical clinics to be understaffed and see fewer patients; and (v) Walgreens executives had failed to manage investor expectations regarding the negative impact that the VillageMD expansion would have on Walgreens’ short-term profits, overstatement of the value of VillageMD, and the risk that Walgreens would be forced to divest part or all of its stake in VillageMD.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased Walgreens common stock during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Walgreens class action lawsuit.  A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class.  A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Walgreens class action lawsuit.  The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Walgreens class action lawsuit.  An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Walgreens class action lawsuit.
