(“Omnicell” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:OMCL) between October 25, 2018, and July 11, 2019, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose: (1) that the Company recognized revenue for certain transactions before fulfilling its performance obligations; (2) that the Company engaged in improper accounting practices to meet revenue targets; (3) that the Company experienced weaker demand for new product lines than it had previously projected; (4) that, as a result, the Company would be required to write-off certain inventory; (5) that the Company misclassified certain expenses as capitalized expenditures; and (6) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On July 11, 2019, GlassHouse Research LLC published a report entitled “Ominous Omnicell, Inc. (OMCL) Delays the Inevitable.” The report concluded that Omnicell prematurely recognized $38.3 million in sales that should have been recognized long-term consistent with the Company’s performance obligations. Among other things, the report alleged that Omnicell’s “new product lines [were] previously pushed onto hospitals, GPOs, and other customers to the point where they are stuffed with products and hesitant to procure any more inventory, especially when dealing with implementation issues.” The report further stated that, due to these accounting practices, the Company would be required to write off $23 million of obsolete inventory. Due to inconsistent increases in capitalized expenses and prepaid commissions, the report alleged that $38.0 million in capitalized expenditures should have been expensed.

On this news, the Company’s stock price fell $11.41 per share, or nearly 14%, to close at $75.11 per share on July 11, 2019, on unusually heavy trading volume.
