According to the complaint, throughout the Class Period, Defendants repeatedly assured investors that the Company would deliver sustainable revenue growth in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic while concealing that the company maintained inadequate internal control over financial reporting and significant conflicts among certain members of the company’s senior leadership and board of directors.

The complaint alleges that investors learned the truth about the Company through a series of disclosures starting on January 9, 2023, when Cutera reported its preliminary financial results for full‑year 2022, including the fact that Cutera had failed to meet its revenue guidance for 2022. Following this news, the price of Cutera common stock declined $9.41 per share, or more than 23%, from a close of $40.45 per share on January 6, 2023, to close at $31.04 per share on January 9, 2023.

Later, on April 12, 2023, Cutera revealed that it had terminated Defendant J. Daniel Plants as the Company’s Executive Chairman and Chairman of the Board and Defendant David H. Mowry as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Following this news, the price of Cutera common stock declined $7.63 per share, or more than 28%, from a close of $27.07 per share on April 11, 2023, to close at $19.44 per share on April 12, 2023.

Finally, according to the complaint, on May 9, 2023, Cutera reported disappointing financial results for the first quarter of 2023 that were “below expectations due to execution challenges in the business” and Cutera announced that the Company’s Chief Financial Officer had resigned. Following this news, the price of Cutera common stock declined $6.06 per share over two trading sessions, or 30%, from a close of $20.20 per share on May 9, 2023, to close at $14.14 per share on May 11, 2023.
