Lead Plaintiff Deadline is Next Tuesday, July 21, 2015
NEW YORK, July 15, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wolf Haldenstein Adler Freeman & Herz LLP reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against IsoRay, Inc. (“IsoRay” or the “Company”) (NYSE MKT:ISR). The class action, filed in United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington, is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased IsoRay securities between May 20, 2015 and May 21, 2015 inclusive (the "Class Period").
Wolf Haldenstein encourages all shareholders who suffered losses on common stock purchased within the Class Period to contact us immediately at classmember@whafh.com or (800) 575-0735.
The actions charge IsoRay and certain of its officers with violations of sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. IsoRay develops, manufactures, and sells isotope-based medical products and devices for the treatment of cancer and other malignant diseases in the United States.
The actions allege that defendants made false and/or misleading statements regarding IsoRay’s Cesium-131 isotope seeds and mesh for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancers. On May 20, 2015, IsoRay issued a press release touting the on-line publication of a study purportedly showing improved results using IsoRay’s Cesium-131 seeds in the treatment of lung cancer.
On May 21, 2015, TheStreet.com published an article about IsoRay, arguing that the Company had selectively edited findings from the study in order to make its Cesium-131 product appear better than it actually is. On this news, the price of IsoRay common stock fell $1.10 per share, or 35.25%, from a closing price of $3.12 on May 20, 2015, to close at $2.02 per share on May 21, 2015, on extremely heavy trading volume.
If you purchased IsoRay securities during the Class Period, you may, no later than July 21, 2015, request that the Court appoint you lead plaintiff of the proposed class. A lead plaintiff is a representative party that acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. Any member of the purported 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.
