The accusations: Robbins LLP investigates allegations that SeaStar Medical Holding Corporation (ICU) misled investors about its business prospects

The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose that: (i) SeaStar and/or Legacy SeaStar had deficient compliance controls and procedures with respect to the HDE Application; (ii) accordingly, the HDE Application was flawed, the FDA was unlikely to approve the HDE Application in its current form, and the approval prospects of the SCD were overstated; (iii) the Company downplayed the true extent and severity of the deficiencies in its financial controls and procedures and overstated Defendants’ efforts to correct them; (iv) accordingly, SeaStar failed to properly account for the classification of certain outstanding warrants and the Prepaid Forward Agreement; (v) as a result, SeaStar would likely restate one or more of its previously published financial statements; and (vi) accordingly, SeaStar’s post-merger business and financial prospects were overstated.

On May 9, 2023, SeaStar announced that it had received a letter from the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research denying the company’s HDE application for its pediatric Selective Cytopheretic Device for the treatment of hyperinflammation. Following this news, SeaStar’s stock price fell $0.77 per share, or nearly 40% per share, to close at $1.17 per share on May 10, 2023.

The plaintiff alleges that on March 27, 2024, SeaStar announced that it would restate its financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and for the interim periods ended March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2023. As a result of this news, the company’s stock price fell again, closing at $0.71 per share on March 27, 2024.
