(“INCR” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: INCR) securities between May 10, 2017 and November 9, 2017, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).

INCR provides clinical development services to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies.

On August 1, 2017, INCR announced that it completed a merger (the “Merger”) with inVentiv Health, Inc. (“inVentiv”). At that time, INCR represented to investors that the Merger was the beginning of an “industry-changing new company, purpose-built to achieve the singular goal of accelerating biopharmaceutical performance.”

The lawsuit alleges that, throughout the Class Period, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) that the Merger was not providing the benefit that Defendants stated it would; (2) that inVentiv was underperforming; (3) that, as a result, the Company’s 2017 financial performance would be negatively impacted; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, defendants’ statements about INCR’s business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On November 9, 2017, INCR reported a quarterly net loss of $88.9 million (as compared to income of $39.4 million for the 2016 comparable quarter). The Company disclosed that its quarterly operating results – for the first quarter following the Merger – had been impacted by: (i) Merger-related transaction expenses of $84.3 million, (ii) an impairment charge of $30.0 million, and (iii) an increase in amortization expense of $41.9 million due to the acquisition of intangible assets as a result of the Merger.

On this news, INCR’s share price fell $16.35, or approximately 28%, to close at $41.15 on November 9, 2017.

If you are a member of the class described above, and suffered a financial loss during the class period, by no later than January 30, 2018 you may seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class. Your ability to share in any recovery does not require that you serve as lead plaintiff.
