Legal Proceedings

The Company is currently involved in various legal proceedings. As required under ASC 450, Contingencies, the Company accrues for contingencies when it believes that a loss is probable and that it can reasonably estimate the amount of any such loss. The Company has not recorded any accrual for contingent liabilities associated with the legal proceedings described below based on its belief that any potential loss, while reasonably possible, is not probable. Further, any possible range of loss in these matters cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to legal proceedings pending against it. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of this contingency or because of the diversion of management’s attention and the creation of significant expenses.

On January 10, 2018, a lawsuit was filed against a number of individuals, governmental agencies, and corporate entities, including the Company and one of its former subsidiaries, Aesynt Incorporated (“Aesynt”), which, through a series of mergers, has been merged into the Company, in the Circuit Court for the City of Richmond, Virginia, captioned Ruth Ann Warner, as Guardian of Jonathan James Brewster Warner v. Centra Health, Inc., et al., Case No. CL18-152-1. The complaint sought monetary recovery of compensatory and punitive damages in addition to certain declaratory relief based upon, as against the individuals, governmental agencies, and corporate entities other than the Company and Aesynt, allegations of the use of excessive force, unlawful detention, false imprisonment, battery, simple and gross negligence and negligent hiring, retention, and training; and, as against the Company and Aesynt, claims of product liability, negligence, and breach of implied warranties. The Company and Aesynt were never served with the complaint. Upon motion of the plaintiff, the Court issued an order on February 21, 2019 nonsuiting (dismissing) the case without prejudice. On August 21, 2019, a new lawsuit was filed against the Company and Aesynt, in the Circuit Court for the County of Albemarle, Virginia, captioned Ruth Ann Warner, as Guardian of Jonathan James Brewster Warner v. Aesynt Incorporated, et al., Case No CL19-1301. The complaint sought monetary recovery of damages based upon claims of product liability, negligence, and breach of implied warranties. The Company and Aesynt were never served with the complaint. On August 25, 2020, the Company and Aesynt filed a motion to dismiss for failure of the plaintiff to serve the complaint within one year of its filing date. On September 30, 2020, the Court dismissed the complaint with prejudice.

A class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, on June 5, 2019, in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division, captioned Corey Heard, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v. Omnicell, Inc., Case No. 2019-CH-06817. The complaint seeks class certification, monetary damages in the form of statutory damages for willful and/or reckless or, in the alternative, negligent violation of the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”), and certain declaratory, injunctive, and other relief based on causes of action directed to allegations of violation of BIPA by the Company. The complaint was served on the Company on June 13, 2019. On July 31, 2019, the Company filed a motion to stay or consolidate the case with the action Yana Mazya, et al. v. Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital, et al., Case No. 2018-CH-07161, pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division (the “Mazya Action”). The Court subsequently, on October 10, 2019, denied the motion, without prejudice, as being moot in view of the Company’s dismissal from the Mazya Action. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on October 31, 2019. The hearing on the Company’s motion to dismiss was held on September 2, 2020. The Court ruled from the bench and dismissed the complaint without prejudice giving plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint by September 30, 2020. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on September 30, 2020 and the Company subsequently filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on October 28, 2020. A status conference is currently set for November 5, 2020. The Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously.
