The Allegations: Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that Ardelyx, Inc. (ARDX) Misled Investors Regarding its Business Prospects

According to the complaint, during the class period, in its Forms 10-Q filed on October 31, 2023, and May 2, 2024, and in its Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2024, Ardelyx indicated that it would apply to include XPHOZAH (its drug that reduces elevated levels of phosphorus in the bloodstream in CKD patients on dialysis who either cannot tolerate or did not adequately respond to other therapies) in TDAPA. Further, on an earnings call on May 2, 2024, defendant Michael Raab advised analysts that "our intent is to enter TDAPA."

However, defendants failed to disclose that in reality, Ardelyx had not yet reached a firm decision concerning whether or not to apply to include XPHOZAH in TDAPA, and could not, in fact, decide whether or not to submit such an application to CMS until after defendants first reviewed CMS’s proposed Calendar Year 2025 ESRD PPS rule, which was only issued on June 27, 2024.

On July 2, 2024, Ardelyx issued a press release announcing that it had chosen not to apply to include XPHOZAH in TDAPA. This sudden change in strategy for XPHOZAH shocked the market, and upon the above news, Ardelyx’s stock price fell $2.29 per share, or 30.25%, to close at $5.28 per share on July 2, 2024.
