A lawsuit filed in the Middle District of Tennessee aims to recover damages for investors who bought Acadia Healthcare stocks between February 28, 2020, and September 26, 2024.

The complaint claims that Acadia Healthcare has unlawfully detained patients, even when such action was not necessary for their health. The company is accused of using misleading methods to attract patients, only to keep them confined for profit instead of for treatment.

The lawsuit asserts that Acadia’s executives knew about these practices and intentionally misled investors regarding the company’s operations and financial outlook.

It references a recent investigation by The New York Times that uncovered numerous allegations of patient mistreatment and illegal detentions at Acadia’s facilities nationwide.

Following the Times’ report on September 1, 2024, Acadia’s stock price fell by 4.5%. The decline worsened on September 27, 2024, when the company revealed it was under federal investigation, causing the stock to drop another 16.36%, raising investor fears about the potential legal and financial fallout from the company’s actions.

Most recently, on October 18, 2024, The New York Times reported that the Veterans Affairs Department is investigating whether Acadia improperly billed insurance for patients who were stable enough to be released and did not require intensive care. This news led to a further decline of over 12% in Acadia’s stock price.
