EMBC UPCOMING DEADLINE: Levi & Korsinsky Alerts Embecta Corp. Stockholders of Securities Class Action - Contact the Firm

Time-Sensitive: Allegations Focus on Concealed U.S. Pen Needle Share Loss at a Single Customer That Drove Embecta's 57.8% Stock Collapse

NEW YORK, June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP alerts investors in Embecta Corp. (NASDAQ: EMBC) of a pending securities class action. Class Period: November 25, 2025 through May 4, 2026. Check if you can recover your investment losses or contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] | (212) 363-7500.

Embecta shares lost $5.35 per share on May 5, 2026, falling from $9.25 to $3.90, a single-day decline of 57.8%. The Court has set August 17, 2026 as the deadline to apply for lead plaintiff appointment.

The Alleged Single-Customer Concentration Risk

The lawsuit asserts that throughout the Class Period, management painted an optimistic picture of Embecta's pen needle segment while concealing that the Company was experiencing significant share loss concentrated at a single major customer. As alleged, this customer concentration risk was material because patients switching to competitors at that account were disproportionately those not on payer plans where Embecta held preferred access, meaning revenue impact per lost unit was far greater than average pricing would suggest.

The action claims management described pen needles as "incredibly resolute" at an industry conference in January 2026 and reaffirmed full-year guidance in February 2026, even as these competitive dynamics were allegedly already eroding the Company's U.S. market position.

Retail Channel Volume Softness and Purchasing Pattern Shifts

Beyond single-customer share loss, the lawsuit contends that Embecta faced a second concealed headwind: overall market volume softness for insulin pens and pen needles in the retail channel. As alleged, more patients were choosing to acquire pen needles from channels where Embecta does not participate or where products carry lower prices, creating additional pressure on retail volumes that management failed to disclose.

This channel migration allegedly compounded the competitive share loss, producing a combined revenue miss that dwarfed what investors had been led to expect:

• Pen needle revenue alone was reduced by approximately $53 million, accounting for 70% of the total $75 million guidance cut
• Competitive share loss at the single customer drove an estimated $25 million of that pen needle reduction
• Overall market volume softness accounted for an additional estimated $20 million
• Inventory reductions and net pricing pressure at certain accounts contributed approximately $8 million more
• Syringe revenue declined by approximately $13 million, partly from lower use associated with compounded drugs
• Patients migrating to lower-cost purchasing channels created pressure that management had not previously disclosed

"Investors deserve transparency about material risks that could affect their investments. The complaint raises important questions about whether known competitive and channel dynamics were adequately communicated to shareholders who were purchasing stock at prices reflecting reaffirmed guidance." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

Q: What specific misstatements does the EMBC lawsuit allege? A: The complaint alleges Embecta made materially false or misleading statements regarding the strength of its pen needle segment and the attainability of its fiscal year 2026 guidance, while concealing significant competitive share loss at a single customer and retail channel softness.
