About the Lawsuit

On this news, the price of Scotts’ shares fell by $13.58 per share, or 19%, from a closing price of $71.44 per share on August 1, 2023, to a closing price of $57.86 per share on August 2, 2023.

The case is City of Hialeah Employees’ Retirement System v. The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company, No. 24-cv-03132.
