On October 23, 2025, Pomerantz LLP announced it is investigating claims on behalf of investors of James Hardie Industries plc (NYSE: JHX). The investigation focuses on potential violations of federal securities laws by the company and certain officers and directors.
The investigation follows James Hardie’s August 19, 2025 earnings release, which reported a 29% decline in first‑quarter profit and projected lower‑than‑expected fiscal 2026 earnings due to high borrowing costs. The firm is examining whether the company’s disclosures and statements during that period were misleading or incomplete.
If the investigation uncovers wrongdoing, James Hardie could face regulatory sanctions, civil liabilities, and shareholder litigation, which could materially affect its financial position and investor confidence. The investigation also raises the possibility of restatements or penalties that could impact the company’s future earnings and capital structure.
