What Happened?

On August 19, 2025, James Hardie disclosed that sales in North America Fiber Cement had declined by 12% due to customer destocking, which the Company had become aware of in April. The Company further explained that the results reflected a “normalization of channel inventories” and would likely impact sales for at least the next two quarters.

On this news, James Hardie’s stock price fell $9.79, or 34.4%, to close at $18.64 per share on August 20, 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) sales in James Hardie’s largest business segment were experiencing inventory loading by channel partners, with the hallmarks of fraudulent channel stuffing, and not sustainable customer demand as represented; and (2) 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 James Hardie common stock during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than December 23, 2025 to request appointment as lead plaintiff in this putative class action lawsuit.
