What Happened?

On February 13, 2025, West issued disappointing revenue and earnings forecasts for 2025, attributing it, in part, to Contract Manufacturing headwinds, including the loss of two major continuous glucose monitoring customers. Additionally, West disclosed that its SmartDose wearable injector devices would be “margin dilutive” in 2025 and that it would be “taking steps to improve [its SmartDose] economics, and all options are on the table.”

On this news, West’s stock price fell $123.17, or 38.2%, to close at $199.11 per share on February 13, 2025, thereby injuring investors.

What Is The Lawsuit About?

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) despite claiming strong visibility into customer demand and attributing headwinds to temporary COVID-related product destocking, West was in fact experiencing significant and ongoing destocking across its high-margin HVP portfolio; (2) West’s SmartDose device, which was purportedly positioned as a high-margin growth product, was highly dilutive to the Company’s profit margins due to operational inefficiencies; (3) these margin pressures created the risk of costly restructuring activities, including the Company’s exit from continuous glucose monitoring (“CGM”) contracts with long-standing customers; and (4) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired West securities between February 16, 2023 and February 12, 2025, the deadline to seek appointment as the lead plaintiff in the securities fraud class action is July 7, 2025.
