Urgent Alert for Perrigo Shareholders Facing Losses: Join Class Action Lawsuit Now
Perrigo Company plc (NYSE: PRGO), a global leader in consumer self-care, is currently faced with a class action lawsuit that highlights significant concerns regarding its financial disclosures and operational integrity. Investors who acquired Perrigo securities between February 27, 2023, and November 4, 2025, are being called upon to join a legal proceeding set to investigate allegations of securities fraud.
The context of the lawsuit stems from Perrigo's acquisition of Nestlé's Gateway infant formula plant in Wisconsin, announced in November 2022, which included the rights to Nestlé's Good Start® infant formula brand for $170 million. This strategic move was expected to enhance Perrigo’s market position in the infant nutrition sector. Unfortunately, the situation quickly deteriorated.
By February 27, 2024, the company reported earnings that revealed hefty acquisition and integration-related costs along with unexpected production issues, leading to a staggering 50% drop in earnings per share compared to the previous year. A subsequent abrupt drop in share prices by over 15% during heavy trading underscored the investors' shock and growing concerns. The downward trend continued as more dismal earnings reports emerged throughout 2024 and into 2025, prompting further scrutiny.
Notably, on May 7, 2024, Perrigo revealed that its first-quarter results indicated a 34.5% decrease in net sales. Such disappointing reports were coupled with reassurances from company leadership that manufacturing adjustments would stabilize operations. However, another earnings announcement on August 6, 2025, disclosed significant inventory scrappage losses, which instilled even deeper doubts about the company's operational capability.
The revelation was compounded by further admissions made on November 5, leading to a drastic slashing of the company’s fiscal year 2025 projections. This marked a pivotal moment for Perrigo; stock prices plummeted by over 25%, reflecting the growing discontent among the investor community.
The class action complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, company officials made materially false representations and failed to disclose adverse truths about Perrigo’s financial situation. The lawsuit claims that issues around maintenance and operational upgrades within the acquired infant formula business were not transparently communicated. Furthermore, it is alleged that investments required to mitigate these issues far exceeded initial estimates, leading to materially overstated financial results.
As this legal battle unfolds, there is a pressing call for all shareholders affected by these events to step forward. Those who purchased Perrigo shares during this turbulent time have until January 16, 2026, to file to become lead plaintiffs in the ongoing class action lawsuit. Participating in this legal action could provide a pathway for investors to reclaim some of their losses under federal securities laws.
