Helen of Troy Limited Common Stock (NASDAQ: HELE)
3 Days left to seek lead plaintiff status.
This Action arises in connection with Defendants’ misrepresentations regarding the success of Project Pegasus. The Complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, which begins shortly after Noel Geoffroy became CEO, the Company boasted about the “fuel” it was generating from Project Pegasus. Although Helen of Troy admitted to some speed bumps in Project Pegasus, specifically citing “implementation hiccups” with its new Tennessee distribution center, Defendants assured investors that “despite the delayed savings related to our Tennessee distribution center, Project Pegasus continues to move forward. We have made good progress on the cost of goods sold work streams, implementing multiple projects that reduce costs and simplify our supplier base.” Helen of Troy continued to assure investors that Pegasus was “on track,” and that the Company had continued making “significant investments” into optimizing its productivity. Then, on May 2, 2025, the Company announced the sudden departure of its CEO, Noel Geoffroy, who spearheaded Project Pegasus and was only appointed as CEO 14 months prior.
