INVESTOR ALERT: Law Offices of Howard G. Smith Announces Lead Plaintiff Deadline In The Class Action Lawsuit Against Albany Molecular Research Inc.

Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors that purchasers of the common stock of Albany Molecular Research Inc. (“Albany Molecular” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:AMRI) between August 5, 2014 and November 5, 2014, inclusive (the “Class Period”), have until January 12, 2015, to file a motion to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the shareholder lawsuit.

Albany Molecular is a contract research and manufacturing company that provides integrated drug discovery, development and manufacturing services primarily in the United States, Europe and Asia. The Complaint alleges that defendants misrepresented Albany Molecular’s financial performance and prospects and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts about operations at the Company’s OsoBio facility.

On November 5, 2014, the Company announced weak financial and operating results for third quarter 2014, including an $8.6 million loss in the quarter. The Company attributed the weak third quarter to a “confluence of a business interruption event at our OsoBio facility, together with lower Discovery and API revenue.” In addition, the Company disclosed a “weather-related power interruption at our OsoBio facility in Albuquerque took the facility offline for a period of time, contributing to the loss of finished product and the need to remediate one of the suites at the facility.” Following this news, Albany Molecular stock declined nearly 27%, or $6.08 per share, to close at $16.59 per share on November 5, 2014.

If you are a member of the Class described above, you may move the Court no later than January 12, 2015, to serve as lead plaintiff, if you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the Class, you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the Class.
