What Is The Medtronic PLC Class Action Lawsuit About?
The Medtronic PLC Class Action Lawsuit (NYSE:MDT) (Medtronic PLC Class Action Lawsuit) was filed when after the market closed on on May 25, 2022.
Defendants made these representations despite known issues with the MiniMed 600 series models. Indeed, in November 2019, the Company issued a warning that certain MiniMed 600 series insulin pumps might have damaged pump retainer rings, which could cause the system to release too much insulin, and instructed customers with damaged rings to contact the Company for replacements. On February 7, 2020, the FDA classified Medtronic’s November 2019 notification as a Class I recall—the most serious
type of recall.

As a result of the Warning Letter—including the resulting uncertainty about FDA approval of the MiniMed 780G and other products in Medtronic’s diabetes operating unit (the “Diabetes Group”)—Medtronic lowered its guidance for its Diabetes Group, now projecting that Diabetes Group product revenues would decline in the mid-single digits range for fiscal year 2022.
On this news, the price of Medtronic common stock declined $6.75 per share, or approximately 6%, from a close of $111.69 per share on December 14, 2021, to close at $104.94 per share on December 15, 2021
The financial fallout from the FDA’s findings continued to surface on May 26, 2022, when Medtronic reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of fiscal year 2022, and provided guidance for fiscal year 2023.
Notably, Defendants disclosed that as a result of the Company’s need to improve its quality control system and its expectation that the MiniMed 780G model—which Defendants had repeatedly identified as crucial to future growth—would not be approved in 2023, the Company expected revenues from its Diabetes Group to decline between 6% and 7% in fiscal year 2023.
On this news, the price of Medtronic common stock fell $6.10 per share, or nearly 6%, from a close of $105.54 per share on May 25, 2022, to close at $99.44 per share on May 26, 2022.
