New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - August 4, 2024) - Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC, a nationally recognized law firm, notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (The) ("Scotts Miracle-Gro" or "the Company") (NYSE: SMG) and certain of its officers.

Class Definition

This lawsuit seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws on behalf of all persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Scotts Miracle-Gro securities between November 3, 2021 and August 1, 2023, inclusive (the "Class Period"). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: bgandg.com/SMG.

Case Details

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made numerous materially false and misleading statements and omissions concerning the Company's inventory levels, debt covenant compliance, and financial performance. Specifically, the Complaint alleges that: (1) Defendants repeatedly assured investors that the Company's inventory levels were appropriate, while attributing strong sales to "selling through high-cost inventory," which resulted in "peak selling" and "record" shipments; (2) Defendants repeatedly assuaged investors' concerns about the Company's debt, stating that they were "optimistic we will remain within the bounds of our bank covenants" and "[did] not see leverage compliance issues going forward," and (3) as a result of these misrepresentations, Scotts common stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
