Vestis Investors Have the Opportunity to Lead the Vestis Securities Fraud Lawsuit With Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 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.

Morgan Stanley Weighs In on Boeing Stock Following Air India Crash
Boeing (NYSE:BA) marked a major milestone last month as the one-billionth passenger flew on its 787 Dreamliner – a big achievement for an aircraft that's only been in service for 14 years. Up until yesterday's tragic Air India crash in Ahmedabad, the 787 Dreamliner had built a strong reputation as a reliable workhorse for long-haul routes with an outstanding safety track record. Confident Investing Starts Here: Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter It's important to note that this is a different aircraft from the Boeing 737 Max, which made headlines after the deadly crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia in 2018 and 2019, claiming hundreds of lives. At this stage, there's no indication that Boeing is at fault for yesterday's incident in India. A clearer picture of what happened is expected to emerge once investigators retrieve the plane's black boxes – the onboard recorders that store critical flight data and cockpit audio. With BA shares taking a beating following the crash, Morgan Stanley analyst Kristine Liwag set out to get an idea of how investors feel about the stock right now. 'While our thoughts remain focused on those affected by the tragedy,' the 5-star analyst said, 'the feedback from investors is considerably less negative than after previous Boeing 737 MAX incidents.' On the positive side, given the strong safety history of the 787, many investors believe the stock's dip is an overreaction, especially as production of the 737 MAX continues to gain momentum. Footage of the incident appears to show a controlled descent, which could suggest that the cause may not be related to a systems failure on the aircraft itself. But the negative take is that incidents like this highlight the stock has a 'higher beta than in previous cycles,' i.e., heightened sensitivity to headlines. Boeing remains 'in the penalty box' due to prior incidents and with a range of pureplay aerospace alternatives available, many would prefer to remain on the sidelines for now. Plenty of questions remain for now. Some observers have noted that the aircraft appeared underpowered during its controlled descent. Investors are asking whether the problem could be related to the engines, maintenance or repair (MRO) issues, or possibly a bird strike. The Air India 787 is equipped with GE Aerospace engines. 'We will continue to monitor developments of the investigation,' Liwag summed up. All in, Liwag assigns an Equal-weight rating (i.e., Neutral) with a $200 price target, suggesting that the stock is fully valued at current levels. (To watch Liwag's track record, click here) While two other analysts also remain on the sidelines, they're outnumbered by 16 who are bullish on the stock. With just one dissenter issuing a Sell, the result is a Strong Buy consensus. Looking ahead, the average price target of $220.95 implies a potential upside of 10.5% over the next year.
