SAN DIEGO -- 

Haeggquist & Eck, LLP, a leading shareholder rights litigation firm, is investigating whether certain directors and officers of Molina Healthcare, Inc. (“Molina” or the “Company”) (NYSE: MOH) breached their fiduciary duties to Molina and its shareholders. If you are a Molina shareholder, you are encouraged to contact Amber Eck at (619) 342-8000 or [email protected] for additional information.

Haeggquist & Eck is investigating whether certain members of the board of directors (the “Board”) made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Molina’s administrative infrastructure was never designed to handle the size and complexity of Molina’s rapid growth strategy; (2) Molina failed to remediate systemic issues and costly disruptions with critical administrative infrastructure functions, including provider payment and utilization management; and (3) as a result, Molina common stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.

On August 2, 2017, the Company withdrew its 2017 earnings outlook and announced that it will eliminate 1,500 jobs and exit certain Obamacare markets after posting a steep second quarter loss. On this news, Molina shares fell nearly 6%, or $3.92 per share, to close at $62.32 per share on August 3, 2017. The Company’s shares continued to fall on the following trading day, closing down $2.52 per share, or over 4%, to close at $59.80 per share on August 4, 2017.

Our investigation concerns whether the Company’s Board has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders, grossly mismanaged the Company, and/or committed abuses of control in connection with the foregoing.
