Investors have until April 15, 2025, to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors who purchased TransMedics securities. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and is captioned Jewik v. TransMedics Group, Inc. et al, No. 25-cv-10385.

Why was TransMedics Sued for Fraud?

TransMedics is a commercial-stage medical technology company. The Company’s “Organ Care System” (“OCS”) is a medical device that keeps donor organs viable before transplant by replicating many aspects of the organ’s natural living and functioning environment outside of the human body.

The complaint alleges that TransMedics misrepresented that its business was driven by kickbacks, fraudulent overbilling, and coercive tactics. The complaint further alleges that the company misrepresented that it engaged in unsafe practices involving OCS, hid safety issues, and generally lacked safety oversight.

The Stock Declines as the Truth is Revealed

On February 21, 2024, U.S. Representative and member of the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Paul Gosar issued a letter accusing the Company of misconduct including overcharging for OCS and misappropriating corporate resources. This news allegedly caused the price of TransMedics stock to decline approximately 4% over two trading days, from $86.99 per share on February 21, 2024 to $83.14 per share on February 23, 2024.

On December 2, 2024, TransMedics announced the resignation of its CFO from that role and narrowed its financial outlook for 2024. Then, on January 10, 2025, Scorpion Capital issued a research report explaining that TransMedics’s growth was fueled by an anti-competitive scheme that included kickbacks to medical providers to use the company’s products and that TransMedics further boosted growth by operating an organ trafficking scheme, engaged in widespread billing fraud, and promoted off-label use. The publication of the Scorpion Capital report caused the price of TransMedics stock to decline an additional 5%, from $72.55 per share on January 8, 2025 to $68.81 per share on January 10, 2025.
