NEW YORK, July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Vestis Corporation ('Vestis' or the 'Company') (NYSE: VSTS) and reminds investors of the August 8, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.
Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.
As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by disseminating materially false and misleading statements and/or concealing material adverse facts concerning the true state of Vestis' ability to grow its business; notably that Vestis would be unable to execute on planned strategic initiatives to drive purported improvements to the customer experience and its onboarding efforts in order to drive new customer growth, increased customer retention, and increased revenue from existing customers.
On May 7, 2025, Vestis announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, withdrew its revenue and growth guidance for the full fiscal year 2025, and provided guidance for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 that fell significantly below market expectations. The Company attributed its poor results partially to 'lost business in excess of new business,' but primarily on 'lower adds over stops, which is how we describe volume changes with our existing customers.' The Company attributed its decision to pull full-year guidance and provide disappointing third quarter targets to the 'increasingly uncertain macro environment.'
Following this news, the price of Vestis' common stock declined dramatically. From a closing market price of $8.71 per share on May 6, 2025, Vestis' stock price fell to $5.44 per share on May 7, 2025, a decline of about 37.54% in the span of just a single day.
The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Vestis' conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

Applied Materials Stock: Is Wall Street Bullish or Bearish?
With a market cap of around $143 billion, Applied Materials, Inc. (AMAT) is a leading provider of manufacturing equipment, services, and software for the semiconductor, display, and related industries. Operating globally through its Semiconductor Systems, Applied Global Services, and Display segments, the company delivers technologies that enhance device performance, yield, and cost-efficiency. Shares of the Santa Clara, California-based company have underperformed the broader market over the past 52 weeks. AMAT stock has risen 3.7% over this time frame, while the broader S&P 500 Index ($SPX) has increased 22.6%. However, shares of Applied Materials have gained 13.9% on a YTD basis, outperforming SPX's 8.4% rise. More News from Barchart Supermicro's Earnings Selloff Explained: Should You Buy SMCI Stock Now?

The FREE Barchart Brief newsletter keeps you in the know. Sign up now! Looking closer, the maker of chipmaking equipment stock has also fallen behind the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund's (XLK) 34.6% return over the past 52 weeks. Despite reporting a better-than-expected Q2 2025 adjusted EPS of $2.39, shares of Applied Materials fell 5.3% the next day due to revenue of $7.1 billion, missing the estimate. The shortfall was primarily driven by underperformance in its Semiconductor Systems segment, which brought in $5.3 billion, below the analysts' expectation amid reduced ICAPS investment and U.S. export restrictions to China. Notably, revenue from China, its largest overseas market, fell sharply to 25% of total sales. For the fiscal year ending in October 2025, analysts expect AMAT's adjusted EPS to grow 9.5% year-over-year to $9.47. The company's earnings surprise history is promising. It beat the consensus estimates in the last four quarters. Among the 34 analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is a 'Moderate Buy.' That's based on 22 'Strong Buys,' three 'Moderate Buy' ratings, and nine 'Holds.' On Aug. 4, UBS increased its price target on Applied Materials to $185, maintaining a Neutral rating. As of writing, the stock is trading below the mean price target of $206.33. The Street-high price target of $250 implies a potential upside of 35.9% from the current price levels.

Tipping culture is out of control: A guide to when, how much, and who to tip
Experts weigh in on when and how much to tip I recently went to a locally-owned hamburger joint with my boyfriend and his two adult children. It was the kind of place where you order at the counter, take your seat, and grab your food when they call your number. In other words, it was a fast food establishment. The bill was roughly $50. I handed my credit card to the young man behind the counter, and after he swiped it, he turned the screen in my direction and said, 'It just needs you to answer a question.' Should we have to tip at the checkout counter? The tablet displayed three options for tipping, each labeled with a sentiment. 10% was 'just okay,' 15% was 'pretty good,' and 20% was 'outstanding.' It was manipulative, and I knew it, but I still opted for 20%. I didn't want to create the impression I wasn't happy with the staff. Furthermore, I understand that most restaurant workers are underpaid. I know full well that a few extra bucks can make a big difference when you're living paycheck to paycheck. Still, it didn't sit right with me. The tip added $10 to my order. It was almost as much as buying an additional meal. The amount was equivalent to what I leave for servers at a full-service restaurant that takes orders tableside and brings out meals and drinks. Later that week, I talked to some friends about the situation. Some of them claimed they never tip for counter service, while others vented about being expected to tip 20% on take-out orders they pick up on their own. Another pointed out that it certainly isn't the staff's fault that their establishment doesn't take orders tableside. They still work hard, and she felt they were equally worthy of an equivalent tip. In short, no one was on the same page. A survey says Americans are fed up with tipping culture A recent WalletHub survey found that nine out of ten Americans believe tipping culture has gotten out of hand. Additionally, it found that 3 out of 5 Americans believe that business owners are relying on customer tips to replace salaries. It's no wonder customers are feeling the squeeze. Since the pandemic, it has become increasingly common to ask for tips at cash registers and self-checkout lanes. So, are times changing, or is tipping culture truly out of control? Here's what the experts say about tipping It turns out the experts disagree as much as my small sampling of friends. In a recent episode of The Ramsey Show, financial expert Dave Ramsey and Jade Warshaw tackled the subject of tipping. The pair agreed that you should always tip 18% to 20%in sit-down restaurants. Warshaw recommended a minimum of 15% for salon services like haircuts and nails. As far as baristas at a coffee shop or grocery delivery, she said it depends. Warshaw thought external circumstances, such as inclement weather, should be factored into the tip. Ramsay said he always leaves hotel housekeepers a daily $20 tip, but stressed that he doesn't tip for counter service, saying, "The times that I walk up to the counter and someone spins an iPad at me and I leave a tip [are] precisely zero. I do not tip there, ever." He felt the practice was manipulative. Overall, the pair advised being generous when you can and advocated for empathy for hardworking service workers. What do other experts have to say? Southern Living interviewed a panel of experts about tipping for takeout orders. David Guas, chef and owner of Bayou Bakery, Coffee Bar, and Eatery, says if you're picking up takeout, a 15% tip shows appreciation for the staff's hard work and service. Etiquette expert and founder of The Protocol School of Texas said she didn't think there was a right or wrong when it came to tipping on take-out orders. She felt the important thing was being courteous and fair. NerdWallet's tipping guide The financial site, NerdWallet, prepared a tipping guide for nearly every situation. Here's what they recommend. Sit-down restaurants: 15% to 20% Takeout orders: a few dollars to 15%, depending on the complexity of the order Baristas and counter service: Tips are discretionary. $2 to $3 up to 20% Bartenders: $1 to $2 a drink or 15% to 20% of the tab Food or grocery delivery: at least 15% Rideshare drivers: 15% to 20% Valet $2 to $5 Hairdressers and cosmetologists: 15% to 20% Massage therapists: 15% to 20% Bellhops and door people: $2 for the first bag, $1 per additional bag Hotel housekeeper: $4 to $5 per night The bottom line: Clearly, there's a great deal of nuance on the subject of tipping since even the experts don't always agree. The safe bet is to err on the side of generosity. People work hard, and it's tough to make a living. A few extra dollars go a long way. Solve the daily Crossword
