Important Notice Regarding Alleged Growth and Profitability Misrepresentations<\/em><\/p>\n

NEW YORK, April 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Levi & Korsinsky, LLP notifies investors in Coty Inc. (NYSE: COTY) that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased securities between November 5, 2025, and February 4, 2026.\u00a0Find out if you qualify to recover losses<\/a>. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at jlevi@levikorsinsky.com<\/a> or (212) 363-7500.<\/p>\n

Coty’s adjusted EBITDA fell 17% to $626.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025, and the Company withdrew its prior fiscal year 2026 EBITDA and free cash flow guidance entirely. Shares fell approximately 22%, from $3.43 to $2.66, costing shareholders $0.77 per share.<\/p>\n

How the Alleged Beauty Market Slowdown Affected Reported Financials<\/strong><\/p>\n

The global beauty industry had been a source of investor confidence for years, with Prestige fragrances growing at mid-single-digit rates as recently as late 2025. The lawsuit contends that Coty’s management painted an optimistic picture of the Company’s position within this market, projecting a return to like-for-like sales growth in the second half of fiscal year 2026 and targeting approximately $1 billion in adjusted EBITDA for the full year. According to the lawsuit, these projections obscured a deteriorating reality: sell-out in Prestige fragrances had gone flattish, Consumer Beauty was significantly underperforming the U.S. mass cosmetics category, and margins were being compressed by rising costs and increased marketing spend.<\/p>\n
