Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, is reminding purchasers of Vital Farms, Inc. (NASDAQ: VITL) securities between May 8, 2025 and February 26, 2026 of the important May 26, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action first filed by the firm. The lawsuit alleges that Vital Farms made false and misleading statements about delays with its new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system and the impact on its financial guidance.

What they’re saying

“We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases.”

— Phillip Kim, Attorney, Rosen Law Firm

What’s next

Investors have until May 26, 2026 to move the court to serve as lead plaintiff in the class action lawsuit against Vital Farms.
