Mako Research published a report on SeekingAlpha.com stating, "ABEO science is demonstrably unviable with numerous irrefutable flaws that will lead to failure." The report found that Steven H. Rouhandeh, the Company's Executive Chairman and Principal Executive Officer, was once the managing director at D. Blech & Co., a brokerage firm that was the subject of SEC investigations during the 1990s, as well as a securities class action suit that ended in a $15 million investor settlement due to claims that the firm altered the price of some biotech stocks through transactions that falsely inflated the market price of the stocks. When this information was released to the public, the value of Abeona securities fell, causing investors harm.
