UnitedHealth Group is facing a proposed class-action lawsuit filed by investor Roberto Faller, alleging misleading financial outlook statements after the CEO’s killing. The lawsuit claims UnitedHealth failed to disclose the backlash from the CEO’s death and earlier Senate reports on claim denials.
UnitedHealthโs stock fell over 22% following the April 17 outlook cut, erasing more than $119 billion in market value and causing significant shareholder losses.
UnitedHealth has denied any wrongdoing and promises to vigorously defend against the lawsuit’s claims.
