Primo Brands Hit With Securities Class Action Over BlueTriton Merger Disclosures

Law firms set a Jan. 12, 2026 deadline after executives acknowledged integration disruptions that preceded a sharp share slump.

Overview

  • A federal complaint filed on Nov. 12, 2025 names Primo Brands and certain officers and directors, alleging they misled investors about the progress and benefits of the Primo Water–BlueTriton integration.
  • Plaintiffs contend the company touted a "flawless" integration while technology problems, customer‑service failures and major supply disruptions hurt customers and financial performance.
  • Executives disclosed on Aug. 7 and Nov. 6, 2025 that the company moved too fast on integration, cut 2025 guidance, and replaced CEO Robbert Rietbroek with director Eric Foss as executive chairman and CEO.
  • Following the November updates, shares dropped about $8.20, more than 36%, over two trading days, wiping out roughly $2 billion in market capitalization.
  • Rosen Law, Lowey Dannenberg, Hagens Berman, the Schall Law Firm, Robbins LLP, Levi & Korsinsky, and Glancy Prongay & Murray are recruiting investors to seek lead‑plaintiff status by Jan. 12, 2026, and no class has been certified.
