CLASS PERIOD: February 3,
2022 to February 3, 2025
ALLEGATIONS: According to the complaint, defendants
provided investors with material information concerning Merck's
expected revenue of $11 billion from
sales of Gardasil by 2030. Defendants' statements included, among
other things, confidence in Merck's purported ability to utilize
successful consumer activation and education efforts on the
benefits of Gardasil in order to drive demand and capitalize on
eligible populations for vaccination, resulting in confidently
optimistic reports and forecasts of Gardasil's growth in
China. The full truth finally emerged on February 4, 2025, when Merck announced it would
no longer achieve the long-forecasted $11
billion in sales of Gardasil by 2030, as it would cease
shipments of Gardasil to China
"through at least midyear" to facilitate a "rapid reduction of
inventory." Defendants claimed this was necessitated by the
continued over-inflation of overall channel inventories as demand
in China for Gardasil had "not
recovered to the level we had expected." Following this news,
Merck's common stock declined dramatically. From a closing market
price of $99.79 per share on
February 3, 2025, Merck's stock price
fell to $90.74 per share on
February 4, 2025, a decline of more
than 9% in the span of just a single day.
DEADLINE: April 14, 2025
