Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.
As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) the Company may have misled investors about the importance of Fabric Genomics; (2) as a result, the Company’s margins would suffer; (3) the company’s average reimbursement rates were not as “durable” as previously disclosed; (4) as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s gross margins would decline; and (5) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
On May 4, 2026, the price of the Company’s shares closed at $67.93. After hours, the Company disclosed that its Q1 financial results had missed for both its exome and genome lines, and cut its 2026 guidance from $540-555 million to $475-490 million.
During the related earnings call, the Company disclosed that the average reimbursement rate came in at $3,300, or $200 below expectations. It also disclosed that it had taken a goodwill impairment charge of $31.3 million as a part of the Fabric Genomics acquisition – after paying $36.5 million for the Company only a year before.
On this news, GeneDx’s share price fell over 49%, or $33.42 per share, from the close on the previous day.
The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding GeneDx’s conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
