Perrigo Company Hit with Class Action Lawsuit Over Securities Violations
Class Action Lawsuit Against Perrigo Company plc
In recent developments, Perrigo Company plc, a major player in the pharmaceutical industry, is facing a class action lawsuit for alleged violations of securities laws. The DJS Law Group has stepped in to remind investors of their rights and options for potential recovery in this case.
Background of the Case
The lawsuit revolves around accusations that Perrigo engaged in misleading practices regarding its financial statements and disclosures. Specifically, the Company is charged with violating sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in addition to failing to comply with Rule 10b-5 established by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The core of the complaint cites misleading information provided to shareholders, particularly following Perrigo's acquisition of Nestlé's baby formula division. Reports surfaced that the acquired unit was significantly underfunded in terms of maintenance and repairs, leading to the need for substantial additional investments to rectify the situation. These revelations suggest that Perrigo's statements to the public were both false and materially misleading, as they failed to disclose critical information regarding the health of the acquired business.
Details for Shareholders
The class period for the lawsuit is defined as from February 27, 2025, to November 4, 2025, with a deadline for lead plaintiff applications set for January 16, 2026. Current shareholders who purchased stock during this period are encouraged to contact the DJS Law Group to explore potential participation in the ongoing case. Importantly, becoming a lead plaintiff is not a prerequisite for receiving any recovery related to the lawsuit.
