On September 11, 2017, Seeking Alpha published an article charging that Health Insurance Innovations was rejected for a key insurance license in Florida because a regulator uncovered undisclosed legal actions against HIIQ insiders. The article also alleged that HIIQ privately warned the Florida regulator of a potentially disastrous “domino effect” spreading to other states, which could cause additional licensure losses. Following this news, shares of HIIQ fell $6.55 per share, or 21.9%, to close at $23.35 per share, causing significant harm to HIIQ investors.

The class action complaint alleges that Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:

(1) the Company’s application for a third-party insurance administrator’s (TPA) license with the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation was denied due in part to material errors and omissions;

(2) the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation’s rejection of the Company’s application for a third-party insurance administrator’s license could result in its losing licenses in the other states; and

(3) as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
