According to the lawsuit, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. tipped Pershing Square Asset Management L.P. about its plan to make a tender offer for Allergan. With this non-public information on hand, Pershing Square bought a 9.7% stake in Allergan during the Class Period without first disclosing Valeant's plan to pursue a tender offer to acquire Allergan at a significant premium. On April 22, 2014, Valeant disclosed publicly for the first time its desire to pursue an acquisition of Allergan, leading to Allergan's stock price increasing dramatically, rising from the previous day's closing price of $141.88 to close at $163.51 on April 22, 2014. Investors who sold Allergan stock prior to the public disclosure of the acquisition were damaged because they received a lower sale price than they otherwise should have.
