Background of Dow Inc.

Dow Inc. is a leading American materials science corporation that services various industries, including packaging, infrastructure, mobility, and consumer applications. The company operates across six global business sectors organized into three segments: Packaging & Specialty Plastics, Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure, and Performance Materials & Coatings.

Historically, Dow has promoted itself as a strong dividend player—fundamental to attracting investors. On multiple investor calls, CEO Jim Fitterling highlighted that maintaining a robust dividend is crucial to the company's investment strategy, stating that over 65% of their shareholders rely on these dividends.

Allegations in the Class Action

Despite Dow's claims of resilience amidst fluctuating market conditions and evolving tariff issues, Pomerantz's lawsuit alleges that the company misrepresented its capacity to navigate economic challenges. The complaint points out serious concerns about Dow's ability to sustain its eye-catching dividend amid rising pressures from competitors, disrupted supply chains, and diminishing demand for its products.

During the class period, Dow’s executives purportedly made misleading statements regarding the company’s operations and future prospects. They claimed the firm was in a strong position to handle macroeconomic challenges but overstated its flexibility to cope with these stresses.

The lawsuit outlines that the executives failed to adequately disclose the extent to which external factors, including increased pricing pressure, softening global demand, and a surplus of products, were adversely affecting Dow's financial health.
