(MGPI) Misled Investors Regarding Demand and Inventory Levels According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants repeatedly touted a strong demand and "normal" inventory levels in brown goods (i.e., American whiskies and tequila), when in fact there had been a slowdown in consumption and oversupply in their products. Further, defendants had assured investors that they were positioned differently than their competitors, and that this was a non-issue, because the Company had already taken steps to mitigate the risk, when in fact it had not. The complaint alleges that on October 17, 2024, MGPI finally admitted that soft demand and high inventories were undermining sales. On this news, MGPI's share price declined $24.07 per share, or 29.5%, to close at $57.50 per share on October 22, 2024. Then, on October 31, 2024, defendants confessed that the excess inventories would have an "even greater impact" on sales in 2025 than previously stated, forcing the Company to scale back certain operations to save money. On this news, MGPI's stock price fell $8.27 per share, or 14.7%, to close at $48.08 per share. What Now: You may be eligible to participate in the class action against MGP Ingredients, Inc.
