Merck & Co. Faces Securities Fraud Class Action Lawsuit: Recover Losses with Levi & Korsinsky.
Merck & Co., Inc. (NYSE: MRK) is currently facing a securities fraud class action lawsuit that could impact shareholders who suffered losses between February 3, 2022, and February 3, 2025. If you are a shareholder and want to learn more about your legal rights, Levi & Korsinsky invites you to reach out before April 14, 2025, to explore your options.
The class action lawsuit against Merck centers around alleged misstatements made by the company regarding its anticipated Gardasil vaccine sales. According to the complaint, Merck assured investors that its Gardasil vaccine would generate $11 billion in sales by 2030. These optimistic projections were based on assumptions that Merck would successfully engage consumers and increase demand for Gardasil, particularly in China.
On February 4, 2025, Merck revealed it would not meet the $11 billion sales target for Gardasil. The company announced it would halt shipments to China "through at least midyear" to reduce channel inventories, citing weaker-than-expected demand in the region.
Merck's stock price dropped significantly following this announcement. The company’s stock fell from $99.79 per share on February 3, 2025, to $90.74 per share on February 4, 2025, a decline of more than 9% in just one day. This drop highlighted the financial impact of Merck's failure to meet its sales projections and the resulting loss of investor confidence.
