Investors in West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. (NYSE: WST) who purchased shares between February 16, 2023, and February 12, 2025, are encouraged to contact The Gross Law Firm regarding a class action lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that during this period, the company made false or misleading statements about customer demand, destocking, and the SmartDose device.The complaint, filed on July 7, 2025, by The Gross Law Firm, alleges that West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. failed to disclose significant and ongoing destocking across its high-margin High-Value Products (HVP) portfolio. Despite claiming strong visibility into customer demand and attributing headwinds to temporary COVID-related product destocking, the company was experiencing substantial and ongoing destocking. Furthermore, the SmartDose device, positioned as a high-margin growth product, was highly dilutive to the company's profit margins due to operational inefficiencies. These margin pressures created the risk of costly restructuring activities, including the company's exit from continuous glucose monitoring contracts with long-standing customers.
The lawsuit seeks to recover damages on behalf of all investors who purchased or otherwise acquired West securities during the specified period. Shareholders are encouraged to register for this class action by visiting the firm's website [1].
