<p>“BD 多次向投資者描繪了其阿拉里斯輸液泵的誤導性圖景，並在 2019 年底設備問題與 FDA 達到高潮時選擇讓他們保持在黑暗中，” 證券交易委員會執法部代理主任 <strong>Sanjay Wadhwa</strong> 表示。</p>
<p>“上市公司有基本責任準確披露重大商業風險，並應當預期在這方面失職時被追究責任，” Wadhwa 補充道。</p>
<p>證券交易委員會的命令發現，BD 違反了聯邦證券法的反欺詐、報告、內部會計控制、賬簿和記錄以及披露控制條款。BD 同意停止進一步違反這些條款，並保留一名獨立合規顧問來審查並提出關於其披露控制和程序的建議，並支付 1.75 億美元的民事罰款，但不承認或否認證券交易委員會的調查結果。</p>
<p><strong>Express 未能披露首席執行官的全部薪酬</strong></p>
<p>證券交易委員會週二宣佈，已與時尚零售商 <strong>Express, Inc.</strong>（EXPRQ）達成和解，因其未能披露支付給現已離職首席執行官的薪酬，Express 同意接受停止和撤銷命令，但不承認或否認證券交易委員會的調查結果。</p>
<p>根據證券交易委員會的命令，Express 未能披露 2019、2020 和 2021 財政年度提供給其首席執行官的價值 979,269 美元的福利和個人利益。因此，Express 在其首席執行官的薪酬中低估了 “所有其他補償” 部分，平均低估了 94%。該公司今年早些時候申請了第 11 章破產。</p>
<p>“上市公司有責任遵守關於首席執行官薪酬的披露義務，包括福利和個人利益，以便投資者能夠做出明智的投資決策，” 執法部代理主任 <strong>Sanjay Wadhwa</strong> 表示。</p>
<p>“在這裏，儘管 Express 未能履行其義務，但委員會決定不對其施加民事罰款，部分原因是該公司的自我報告、與工作人員調查的合作以及補救措施，” Wadhwa 補充道。</p>

碧迪醫療

<p>碧迪醫療同意支付 100 萬美元的民事罰款，因為美國證券交易委員會（SEC）發現其在關於 Alaris 輸液泵的風險方面誤導了投資者，並且由於未記錄軟件修復成本而誇大了收入。同時，Express, Inc.因未披露其前首席執行官的 1269 美元高管福利而達成和解，這導致其三年內的薪酬被低估了 94%。由於 Express 的合作和補救措施，SEC 沒有對其處以罰款</p>

</div><p>&#34;BD repeatedly painted a misleading picture of its Alaris infusion pump for investors and then doubled down by keeping them in the dark when the device's issues came to a head with the FDA in late 2019,&#34; said <strong>Sanjay Wadhwa</strong>, Acting Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“BD 多次向投資者描繪了其阿拉里斯輸液泵的誤導性圖景，並在 2019 年底設備問題與 FDA 達到高潮時選擇讓他們保持在黑暗中，” 證券交易委員會執法部代理主任 <strong>Sanjay Wadhwa</strong> 表示。</p>

</div><p>The SEC announced on Tuesday that it has settled charges against fashion retailer <strong>Express, Inc.</strong> EXPRQ for failing to disclose executive compensation it paid to its now former CEO with Express agreeing to a cease-and-desist order, without admitting or denying the SEC's findings.</p>

</div><p>According to the SEC's order, Express failed to disclose $979,269 worth of perks and personal benefits provided to its CEO for fiscal years 2019, 2020, and 2021. As a result, Express understated the &#34;All Other Compensation&#34; portion of its CEO's compensation by an average of 94% over the three years. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this year.</p>
