Abbott Class Action Complaint Filed: Johnson Fistel, Successful Law Firm Encourages Shareholders Who Held ABT During the Stock Drop to Contact the Firm

Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has commenced on behalf of investors of Abbott Laboratories (“Abbott” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ABT). The class action is on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise, acquired Abbott stock between February 19, 2021 to June 8, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors are hereby notified that they have until October 31, 2022 to move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff in this action.

What actions may I take at this time? If you suffered a loss and are interested in learning more about being a lead plaintiff, please contact Jim Baker (jimb@johnsonfistel.com) by email or phone at 619-814-4471. If emailing, please include a phone number.

There is no cost or obligation to you.

The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made numerous materially false and misleading statements and omissions concerning what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) called “egregiously unsanitary” conditions at the Company’s Sturgis facility. Specifically, Defendants repeatedly touted to investors the safety and salability of Abbott’s infant formula brands and their contribution to the Company’s sales and revenue growth.

A lead plaintiff will act on behalf of all other class members in directing the Abbott class-action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the class-action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share any potential future recovery of the Abbott class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
