What is this Case About: According to the complaint filed against Inotiv, on September 21, 2021, Inotiv announced the acquisition of Envigo RMS, LLC, which it completed on November 5, 2021. During the class period, defendants touted that its animal research facilities "comply with applicable regulations for the humane treatment of animals in our custody."

On May 20, 2022, Inotiv revealed that on May 18, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") and other federal and state law enforcement agents executed a search and seizure warrant on its Cumberland, Virginia facility. Additionally, on May 19, 2022, the DOJ filed a complaint against Envigo for violations of the Animal Welfare Act at the Cumberland facility. Then, on May 21, 2022, the court in the DOJ's case issued an immediate temporary restraining order to halt "serious and ongoing violations of the Animal Welfare Act." The court noted that hundreds of beagle puppies died in the Cumberland facility citing deplorable conditions, including overcrowded enclosures, lack of nutrition, and lack of veterinary care. On this news, the Company's share price fell $5.19 per share, or 28%, to close at $13.14 per share on May 23, 2022.

Finally, on June 13, 2022, the Company announced it was closing two Envigo facilities. On this news, the Company's share price fell again to $12.78 per share.
