WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces it is investigating potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of Ocugen, Inc. (NASDAQ: OCGN) resulting from allegations that Ocugen may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Ocugen securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses.

WHAT IS THIS ABOUT: On May 26, 2021, Ocugen stated its plan to submit an Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) application for COVAXIN™, a COVID-19 vaccine, to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) in June 2021.

Then on June 10, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing that it “will no longer pursue an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for COVAXIN™” but would instead “pursue submission of a biologics license application (BLA) for its COVID-19 vaccine candidate, COVAXIN™.” The Company’s Chairman of the Board, CEO, and co-founder further revealed that “[a]lthough we were close to finalizing our EUA application for submission, we received a recommendation from the FDA to pursue a BLA path[,]” and that “this will extend our timelines[.]”

On this news, Ocugen’s stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on June 10, 2021, damaging investors.
