NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / December 22, 2016 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC reminds investors that a securities class action has been filed against Allergan PLC ("Allergan" or the "Company") (NYSE: AGN) and/or Actavis plc and certain of its officers. This class action is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons who purchased Allergan between February 25, 2014 and November 3, 2016, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period").

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Both Allergan and Actavis were involved in and/or had been involved in conduct that would result in an antitrust investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice; (2) the DOJ investigation and the misconduct may instigate U.S. prosecutors to file criminal charges against Allergan and Actavis for alleged price manipulation; (3) as a result, Allergan and Actavis lacked effective internal controls; and (4) consequently, public statements by Allergan and Actavis were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

No Class has yet been certified in the above action.
