Read on for answers to six frequently asked questions investors have about the Beauty Health class action lawsuit.

what are the ALLEGATIONS IN THE BEAUTY HEALTH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

​Beauty Health is a health and beauty company which provides “skin health experiences.”

The Beauty Health class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period failed to disclose that: (i) Syndeo 1.0 and 2.0 devices had issues leading to “frequent treatment interruptions”; (ii) as a result, Beauty Health incurred significant costs to develop enhancements; (iii) despite the enhancements, providers continued to experience issues with the Syndeo devices; (iv) consequently, Beauty Health would no longer market Syndeo 1.0 and 2.0 devices and incur significant inventory write-downs; and (v) as such, Beauty Health’s profitability would be adversely impacted.

The Beauty Health class action lawsuit further alleges that on August 9, 2023, Beauty Health announced that its second quarter of 2023 gross margin was “unfavorably impacted” by a mix shift “toward lower-margin refurbished devices . . . as U.S. providers awaited Syndeo enhancements in the third quarter [of] 2023 to improve user experience.”  Beauty Health also announced the “involuntary separation without cause” of Beauty Health’s Chief Financial Officer, defendant Liyuan Woo, the Beauty Health class action lawsuit also alleges.  On this news, the price of Beauty Health shares fell by more than 5%, the complaint alleges.

​Then, the Beauty Health class action lawsuit alleges that, on November 13, 2023, Beauty Health disclosed that its third quarter of 2023 “was overshadowed by lower-than-expected U.S. revenue and $63.1 million in restructuring charges related to device upgrades of early generation Syndeo devices.”  As a result, the complaint alleges, Beauty Health announced that it was “revising its fiscal year 2023 net sales guidance to a range of $385 to $400 million, its fiscal year adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to a range of 5% to 6% and is suspending its long-term 2025 financial outlook.”  Beauty Health further disclosed that defendant Andrew Stanleick would depart Beauty Health as President and Chief Executive Officer and relinquish his Board seat, effective November 19, 2023, the Beauty Health class action lawsuit further alleges.  On this news, the price of Beauty Health shares fell by more than 64%, the complaint alleges.

WHAT ARE MY CHOICES IF I RECEIVE A NOTICE IN THE BEAUTY HEALTH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

​​First, read the notice very carefully.  You have two choices.  First, you can do nothing and remain a member of the class represented by lead counsel.  Second, if you believe you have a large enough loss to justify it, you can opt out of the Beauty Health class action lawsuit and file your own separate lawsuit. Note, that if you opt out, you will not be able to participate in any settlement or recovery obtained in the Beauty Health class action lawsuit. 

CAN A NON-U.S. INVESTOR SERVE AS LEAD PLAINTIFF IN THE BEAUTY HEALTH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

​Yes, courts in the U.S. have consistently recognized that non-U.S. investors, many of whom have substantial holdings, are adequate lead plaintiffs and have the same right to move for lead plaintiffs as U.S. investors.  Thus, if a non-U.S. investor suffered losses in Beauty Health​​ stock, they may move the Court to be appointed lead plaintiff in the Beauty Health class action lawsuit. 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SERVING AS LEAD PLAINTIFF IN THE BEAUTY HEALTH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

Serving as a Lead Plaintiff in the Beauty Health class action lawsuit has several advantages and important benefits including:

• A Lead Plaintiff is able to negotiate more competitive attorney fees and reduce other litigation costs by actively monitoring the class counsel.
• Lead Plaintiff has the benefit of being able to manage the litigation primarily by overseeing and monitoring the progress of the action and the efforts of counsel, and being able to review and comment on important filings and other documents pertaining to the prosecution of the action.
• There is no financial risk in serving as a Lead Plaintiff because Lead Counsel advances all costs and expenses incurred in the prosecution of the case and will be reimbursed only if there is a successful settlement or judgment recovery on behalf of the class.
• Lead Plaintiff has the benefit of being involved and active in all negotiations relating to any settlement.
• Lead Plaintiffs that continue owning the stock of the defendant will enjoy the long-term benefits from governance reform resulting from the litigation. 

Thus, there are numerous benefits and other advantages to serving as lead plaintiff in a class action against Beauty Health if you suffered significant losses in Beauty Health​​ stock. ​

CAN I BE LEAD PLAINTIFF IN THE BEAUTY HEALTH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IF I AM LEAD PLAINTIFF IN ANOTHER CASE?

​​Yes, unless you have been a lead plaintiff in more than five securities class actions during any three-year period which is expressly prohibited by the securities laws. Otherwise, if you suffered losses in Beauty Health stock, you may move to be appointed lead plaintiff in the Beauty Health class action lawsuit.

HOW WAS THE CLASS PERIOD DETERMINED IN THE BEAUTY HEALTH LAWSUIT?

In a securities fraud class action, the class period refers to a period of time in which it is alleged the price of the company’s stock was artificially inflated due to false and misleading statements made by company executives.  The class period starts when the company makes an untrue statement of material fact about the company or fails to disclose a material fact necessary to render other statements not misleading.  The class period ends when the truth is revealed to the investing public through a corrective disclosure.  
 
In order to be a part of the class in the Beauty Health lawsuit, you must have suffered losses in Beauty Health stock by purchasing during the class period when it is alleged the price of the stock was artificially inflated to be included in the class action against Beauty Health​​.
