NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized shareholder rights law firm, is investigating potential claims against Paragon 28, Inc. (NYSE: FNA), Centuri Holdings, Inc (NYSE: CTRI), Liquidia Corporation (NASDAQ: LQDA), and Elastic N.V. (NYSE: ESTC). Our investigations concern whether these companies have violated the federal securities laws and/or engaged in other unlawful business practices. Additional information about each case can be found at the link provided.

Paragon 28, Inc. (NYSE: FNA)

On July 30, 2024, after the market closed, Paragon 28 filed a current report on Form 8-K with the SEC. It stated that “On July 30, 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Paragon 28, Inc. (the “Company”), in consultation with management, concluded that the Company’s previously issued audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, contained within the Annual Report on Form 10-K for that year (and the associated audit report of the Company’s independent registered accounting firm) and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained within the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2024 should no longer be relied upon due to errors in such financial statements, and therefore a restatement of these prior financial statements is required. Accordingly, the Company intends to restate the aforementioned financial statements by amending its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 (the “Restated Filings”) as soon as reasonably practicable.”

On this news, the price of Paragon 28 stock fell by 13.7% on July 31, 2024.

Centuri Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CTRI)

On July 29, 2024, Centuri reported its financial results for the second quarter, revealing a Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share (EPS) of $0.20, which falls short by $0.02 in comparison to market expectations. Additionally, the company's revenue for the quarter was disclosed at $643.39 million, representing a year-over-year decline of 17.0%, and missing analyst projections by $117.03 million.

Just months earlier on April 18, 2024, Centuri conducted its initial public offering ("IPO"), and the company sold 12.4 million shares for $21. Since the IPO, the stock has plummeted and on July 29, 2024, Centuri stock closed at $15.72.

Liquidia Corporation (NASDAQ: LQDA)
On August 19, 2024, Liquidia issued a press release announcing that "the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted tentative approval of YUTREPIA™ (treprostinil) inhalation powder to treat adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD)" but "must await the expiration of regulatory exclusivity of a competing product before final approval can be granted."

On this news, Liquidia's stock price fell $4.32 per share, or 30.62%, to close at $9.79 per share on August 19, 2024.

Elastic N.V. (NYSE: ESTC)

On August 30, 2024, Elastic announced that it was reducing its revenue forecast for the year, a move that prompted a flurry of downgrades from market analysts. A major concern was the disruption within the sales organization, which appeared during a period of strategic realignment aimed at improving sales efficiency and effectiveness. Moreover, the company has been facing a decrease in demand across the regions of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, further complicating its financial outlook.

Following this news, Elastic's stock was trading significantly lower in pre-market trading on August 30, 2024.
