DEFENDANTS' ALLEGED MISCONDUCT:

The complaints allege that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about the company's business, operations, and prospects, including that: (1) Acadia Healthcare admitted patients and held them against their will and beyond the length of time that was medically necessary in order to deceive payors into continuing to pay for such patients' care; (2) Acadia Healthcare would not release patients until their insurance ran out; (3) in order to achieve the above, Acadia Healthcare deployed company assessors to pressure emergency rooms to send patients to company facilities, filed frivolous petitions with courts to delay patients' release, and directed employees to use buzzwords and avoid using other words in patients' charts to create a false impression of patients' mental state; (4) Acadia Healthcare's admissions, length of stay, and billing practices would subject the company to government investigations and actions and heightened media scrutiny; (5) in light of such government investigations and actions and media scrutiny, Acadia Healthcare's relationships with its referral sources would be negatively impacted; (6) as a result of the above, Acadia Healthcare experienced slower same-store patient volumes, and in turn, the company would be forced to lower its full-year 2024 outlook; and (7) as a result of the above, Defendants' positive statements about the company's business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS:
