Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (“KSF”) and KSF partner, former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., remind investors that they have until December 23, 2025 to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against James Hardie Industries plc (“James Hardie” or the “Company”) (NYSE: JHX).

James Hardie and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On August 19, 2025, despite prior reassurances that its North America Fiber Cement segment remained strong, the Company disclosed that sales in North America Fiber Cement declined by 12% due to customer destocking first discovered “in April through May,” that was expected to impact sales for at least the next two quarters.

On this news, the price of James Hardie’s shares fell by over 34%, or $9.79 per share, from a closing price of $28.43 per share on August 18, 2025 to $18.64 per share on August 20, 2025.

If you purchased shares of James Hardie and would like to discuss your legal rights and how this case might affect you and your right to recover for your economic loss, you may, without obligation or cost to you, contact KSF Managing Partner Lewis Kahn toll-free at 1-877-515-1850 or via email (lewis.kahn@ksfcounsel.com), or fill out the form on this page.

The case is Laborers’ District Council and Contractors’ Pension Fund of Ohio v. James Hardie Industries plc, et al., No. 25-cv-13018.
