New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - August 10, 2026) - Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP , a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Embecta Corp. ("Embecta" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: EMBC) and reminds investors of the August 17, 2026 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.
Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia.
The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995.
As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that:
According to the complaint, defendants provided overwhelmingly positive statements to investors while, at the same time, disseminating materially false and misleading statements and/or concealing material adverse facts concerning the true state of Embecta's fiscal results; pertinently, Embecta knew or recklessly disregarded that the Company's guidance was misleading and unattainable.
In fact, Embecta touted the Company's pen needle business as "incredibly resolute" mere weeks prior to missing expectations and cutting 2026 fiscal guidance.
On May 5, 2026, Embecta published second quarter 2026 fiscal results disclosing that the Company failed to meet its guidance for second quarter 2026 and lowered fiscal year 2026 guidance.
In particular, Embecta revealed that revenue declined over 14%, much higher than the guidance of flat to a decline of 2% and that the Company was lowering estimates on US performance, largely in part due to weakness in its pen needle sales.
Following this news, the price of Embecta's common stock declined dramatically.
From a closing market price of $9.25 per share on May 4, 2026, Embecta's stock price fell to $3.90 per share on May 5, 2026, a decline of over 57.8% in a single day.
The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class.
Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Embecta's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
