Kirby McInerney LLP Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of Kenvue Inc. (KVUE) Investors

The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of those who acquired Kenvue Inc. (“Kenvue” or the “Company”) (NYSE: KVUE) securities pursuant to the registration statement and related prospectus issued in connection with Kenvue’s initial public offering (“IPO”). Investors have until December 8, 2023 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.

On November 12, 2021, Johnson & Johnson announced the creation of Kenvue as a wholly owned consumer health subsidiary. On May 3, 2022, Johnson & Johnson and Kenvue jointly announced that the price of Kenvue’s IPO would be $22 per share. On May 3, 2023, Kenvue filed its final prospectus for the IPO. In the IPO, the Company sold approximately 198,734,444 shares of its common stock at $22.00 per share. The final prospectus failed to disclose confirmed concerns about the efficacy of the Company’s products containing phenylephrine.

On September 12, 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published a report stating that it was convening an advisory committee to discuss the adequacy of efficacy data available for orally administered phenylephrine as a nasal decongestant. On this news, the price of Kenvue shares declined by $1.01 per share, or approximately 4.58%, from $22.07 per share to close at $21.06 on September 12, 2023. The Company’s share price has since not returned to its IPO price.

The lawsuit alleges that, in the IPO documents, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose that: (i) Kenvue faces potential headwinds as a result of confirmed concerns about the efficacy of phenylephrine, which it knew or should have known; (ii) Kenvue did not discuss risks relating to the efficacy of phenylephrine in its IPO, the utility of which had been questioned since at least 2007; and (iii) while the Company disclosed risks relating to litigation, it did not disclose specific risk relating to potential litigation arising from adverse findings on the efficacy of phenylephrine.

Elrod of Kirby McInerney LLP by email at investigations@kmllp.com, or by filling out this contact form, to discuss your rights or interests with respect to these matters without any cost to you.
