SHAREHOLDER ACTION ALERT: The Schall Law Firm Announces the Filing of a Class Action Lawsuit Against Newell Brands Inc. and Encourages Investors with Losses in Excess of $100,000 to Contact the Firm

According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market throughout the class period. Newell Brands’ retail sales channel had a very high level of unsold inventory. The increased inventory was due to issues specific to Newell Brands and their products, as opposed to macroeconomic conditions as claimed by the Company. The high inventory level exposed Newell Brands to a risk of slower sales in the future. Additionally, undisclosed cultural differences and management clashes between legacy Newell Brands and the Jarden business units led to internal strife which would have an adverse influence on operating performance. According to the lawsuit, when accurate information about Newell Brands became apparent in the market, investors suffered damages.
