SHAREHOLDER ALERT - Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Reminds Investors of Class Action Against Intercept Pharmaceuticals, Inc. & Lead Plaintiff Deadline: November 27, 2017

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 6, 2017 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Intercept Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Intercept" or the "Company") (ICPT) securities and certain of its officers, on behalf of a class who purchased Intercept shares between May 31, 2016, and September 20, 2017, inclusive (the "Class Period"). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: www.bgandg.com/icpt.

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operational and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Ocaliva entailed undisclosed safety risks, including death, to patients suffering from PBC; and (ii) as a result of the foregoing, Intercept's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On September 12, 2017, Intercept issued a letter warning physicians against overdosing patients with Ocaliva, advising them that the drug has been tied to liver injuries and death among patients suffering from PBC.

On this news, Intercept's share price fell $15.36, or 13.53%, to close at $98.12 on September 12, 2017.

On September 21, 2017, the FDA issued a safety announcement entitled "FDA Drug Safety Communication: FDA warns about serious liver injury with Ocaliva for rare chronic liver disease," warning doctors after reports of multiple deaths linked to the drug.

On this news, Intercept's share price fell $24.42, or 24.88%, to close at $73.70 on September 21, 2017.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed.
