Robbins LLP has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of investors who purchased Bath & Body Works, Inc. (NYSE: BBWI) securities between June 4, 2024 and November 19, 2025. The lawsuit alleges that the company failed to disclose that its strategy of "adjacencies, collaborations and promotions" was not growing its customer base or delivering the level of sales growth it had touted to investors.

Why it matters

This case highlights concerns about Bath & Body Works' transparency with investors regarding its business performance and strategy. The company's stock price dropped significantly after it announced disappointing financial results and a new business strategy, raising questions about whether it had misled investors earlier.

The details

According to the complaint, Bath & Body Works failed to disclose that its strategy of pursuing "adjacencies, collaborations and promotions" was not growing its customer base or delivering the promised sales growth. The company instead allegedly relied on brand collaborations to "carry quarters" and obfuscate weak underlying financial results. On November 20, 2025, Bath & Body Works reported a 1% decline in revenue, a 26% drop in net income, and slashed its full-year guidance, causing its stock price to fall 24.8%.

  • The class action was filed on behalf of investors who purchased Bath & Body Works securities between June 4, 2024 and November 19, 2025.
  • The lead plaintiff deadline is March 16, 2026.
