SAN DIEGO, July 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Robbins LLP notifies investors that a shareholder has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of all investors who purchased or otherwise acquired securities of Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc.

The accusations: Robbins LLP is investigating allegations that Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. (WBA) misled investors about its business prospects

The lawsuit alleges that during the Class Period, defendants created the false impression that they had reliable information regarding the company’s projected revenue outlook and expected growth, while minimizing the risk of seasonality and macroeconomic fluctuations. In truth, Walgreens’ optimistic reports about growth, cost-cutting measures, and overall stability of its pharmacy division fell short of reality; the company’s pharmacy division was unprepared to meet the ongoing challenges in its industry and, furthermore, would require significant restructuring to create a sustainable model.

The plaintiff alleges that on June 27, 2024, Walgreens announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and lowered its revenue forecast for the fourth quarter and full fiscal 2024. The company attributed its results and lowered forecast to the “significant challenges in the U.S. pharmacy business resulting from a worse than expected consumer environment and challenging trends in the pharmacy industry.” As a result of this news, the price of Walgreens’ common stock declined approximately 22.16%, from $15.66 per share on June 26, 2024 to $12.19 per share on June 27, 2024.
