(Esperion or "the Company") (NASDAQ: ESPR) and certain of its officers. The class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased shares from August 18, 2015 through September 28, 2015, all dates inclusive (the "Class Period"). Such investors are advised to contact Peretz Bronstein or his investor relations analyst, Yael Hurwitz at info@bgandg.com or 212-697-6484.
