Claim deadlineMcKesson Corporation (MCK) agreed to pay up to $141 million to settle a securities class action lawsuit to avoid further litigation.
The complaint alleged that the Company and its Leaders made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:
- McKesson and several of its industry peers colluded to fix the price of certain generic drugs;
- the collusive conduct constituted a violation of federal antitrust laws;
- consequently, McKesson’s revenues were, in part, the result of illegal conduct and were therefore unsustainable;
- McKesson lacked effective internal controls over financial reporting.
