The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the Company's failure to disclose during the Class Period that adverse and continuing delays in the installation of it newest version of its EHR clinical software, Touchworks, version 11 ("V-11") software systems occurred because Allscripts lacked the necessary resources to install V-11 software at customer sites and had no historical basis to estimate the timing of and impact V-11 sales might have on the Company's 2007 revenues and earnings such that defendants had no reasonable basis for their statements and opinions concerning Allscripts' current and future financial performance and projections. According to the complaint, after the Company revealed, on February 13, 2008, its actual 2007 financial results, reporting 2007 revenue of $281.9 million or $18 million below the Company's $300 million guidance confirmed in August 2007 and $5 million short of their November earnings guidance revision and that V-11 installation delays were likely to negatively impact sales and earnings well into 2008, the value of Allscripts' stock declined significantly.
