Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP (“Scott+Scott”), an international shareholder and consumer rights litigation firm, has filed a securities class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida against Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (“Treace Medical” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: TMCI), and certain of its former and current officers and/or directors (collectively, “Defendants”). The Class Action asserts claims under §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §§78j(b) and 78t(a)) and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder (17 C.F.R. §240.10b‑5) on behalf of all persons other than Defendants who purchased or otherwise acquired Treace Medical securities between May 8, 2023, and May 7, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”), and were damaged thereby (the “Class”). The Class Action filed by Scott+Scott is captioned: McCluney v. Treace Medical Concepts, Inc., et al., Case No. 3:25-cv-00390.
LEAD PLAINTIFF DEADLINE ON JUNE 10, 2025
Treace Medical is a medical technology company focused on advancing the standard of care for the surgical management of bunion and related midfoot deformities. The Company has patented the Lapiplasty, a combination of instruments, implants, and surgical methods designed to surgically correct all three planes of the bunion deformity and secure the unstable joint.
The Class Action alleges that, during the Class Period, Defendants made misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s business, financial condition, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose that: (1) competition impacted the demand for and utilization of its primary product, the Lapiplasty 3D Bunion Correction System (the “Lapiplasty”); (2) as a result, Treace Medical’s revenue declined and the Company needed to accelerate its plans to offer a product that was an alternative to osteotomy (a surgical procedure that involves cutting and realigning a bone to improve its position or function); and (3) Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
As the truth about Treace Medical’s business reached the market, the price of Treace Medical’s stock suffered significant declines, harming investors. For example, on May 7, 2024, after market hours, when the Company issued a press release reporting, among other things, that it lowered its full-year 2024 revenue guidance from between $220 million and $225 million to between $201 million and $211 million. During the associated earnings call the same day, Defendants revealed competition from minimally invasive osteotomy and Lapiplasty “knockoffs” created headwinds for Lapiplasty growth. On this news, the Company’s stock price fell $6.95, or nearly 63%, to close at $4.17 per share on May 8, 2024, on unusually high trading volume.
