Legal Action Notification: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Investigates Avantor

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a premier national securities law firm, has initiated an investigation into potential claims concerning Avantor, Inc.

Such reassurances provided a false sense of security for investors, prompting them to maintain or increase investment in the company.

This unprecedented turn led to a sharp decline in share prices, dropping from $15.50 to $12.93 per share. Subsequently, more negative performance indicators were reported, with the second quarter results showing disappointing net sales figures, leading to yet another price drop. The decreased revenue growth was largely attributed to
