Germany based BioNTech SE, a biotechnology company, develops and commercializes immunotherapies for cancer and other infectious diseases. BioNTech SE has developed and continues to develop, among other products and product candidates, Comirnaty, a COVID-19 vaccine, in collaboration with Pfizer Inc. ("Pfizer"). As part of BioNTech's collaboration agreement with Pfizer, the two companies share gross profits from COVID-19 vaccine sales in their respective territories. In addition, Pfizer's inventory write-offs for COVID-19 products reduce BioNTech's gross profit share, thereby reducing BioNTech's vaccine revenues.

On Monday, October 16, 2023, during pre-market hours, announced that, as a result of Pfizer's inventory write-offs and other charges related to Comirnaty, BioNTech, too, would likely recognize up to €0.9 billion in inventory write-offs and other charges related to Comirnaty in the third quarter of 2023, which represents BioNTech's half under the gross profit-sharing agreement with Pfizer. BioNTech also disclosed that "[a]ny such write-offs will reduce the revenues the Company would report for 2023." According to BioNTech SE, Pfizer informed the Company "that the majority of the write-offs relate to raw materials, mainly formulation-related lipids, purchased during the pandemic, as well as COVID-19 vaccine doses adapted to other, non-XBB.1.5 variants produced at risk."

Shares of BioNTech SE (NASDAQ: BNTX) declined from $147.66 per share in February 2023 to as low as $88.66 per share on November 02, 2023.

The plaintiff claims that between March 30, 2022 and October 13, 2023, the Defendants failed to disclose that BioNTech overstated demand for Comirnaty and/or its commercial prospects, that the Company and/or Pfizer had accumulated excess inventory of raw materials for Comirnaty, as well as COVID-19 vaccine doses adapted to other, non-XBB.1.5 variants that were produced at risk, and that accordingly, BioNTech SE was at an increased risk of recording significant inventory write-offs and other charges related to Comirnaty.

Those who purchased shares of BioNTech SE (NASDAQ: BNTX) have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation.
