What is this Case About: BioNTech SE (BNTX) Allegedly Misled Investors Regarding its Business Prospects

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants failed to disclose that: (i) BioNTech overstated demand for Comirnaty and/or its commercial prospects; (ii) the Company and/or Pfizer had accumulated excess inventory of raw materials for Comirnaty, as well as COVID-19 vaccine doses adapted to other, non-XBB.1.5 variants that were produced at risk; and (iii) accordingly, BioNTech was at an increased risk of recording significant inventory write-offs and other charges related to Comirnaty.

On Monday, October 16, 2023, BioNTech issued a press release announcing that, as a result of Pfizer’s inventory write-offs and other charges related to Comirnaty, BioNTech, would likely recognize up to €0.9 billion in inventory write-offs and other charges related to Comirnaty in the third quarter of 2023, which represents BioNTech’s half under the gross profit-sharing agreement with Pfizer, and that “[a]ny such write-offs will reduce the revenues the Company would report for 2023.” According to BioNTech, Pfizer informed that Company “that the majority of the write-offs relate to raw materials, mainly formulation-related lipids, purchased during the pandemic, as well as COVID-19 vaccine doses adapted to other, non-XBB.1.5 variants produced at risk.” On this news, BioNTech’s ADS price fell $6.61 per ADS, or 6.38%, to close at $96.97 per ADS on October 16, 2023, harming investors.
