The complaint alleges that the Company issued false and misleading statements about the Company's financial condition and prospects. On July 29, 2013, Orthofix issued a press release announcing, among other things, that it was delaying the release of its financial results for the second quarter of 2013 and that additional time was needed to review matters relating to revenue recognition for prior periods. In response to this announcement the price of Orthofix shares declined from $27.40 per share prior to the announcement to $22.71 per share on July 30, 2013. Then, on August 6, 2013, Orthofix issued a press release announcing that it would restate its financial statements for fiscal years 2011 and 2012 and the first quarter of 2013.

If you suffered a loss in Orthofix you have until October 14, 2013 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff.
