About Quanex Building Products Corporation
Quanex Building Products is a global manufacturer that supplies engineered components and solutions to the building materials industry. The company’s products are used by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Quanex operates facilities worldwide, including a significant presence in Mexico through its acquisition of Tyman plc, a UK-based building components manufacturer.
The Allegations
The securities class action lawsuit alleges that Quanex and certain executives made false or misleading statements and failed to disclose material problems related to the Tyman Mexico facility.
The complaint claims:
- Quanex’s Tyman Mexico facility was significantly underinvested in tooling and equipment maintenance, leading to severe equipment degradation that approached catastrophic levels.
- These operational issues were identified internally by mid-2025, but were not disclosed to investors until September 2025.
- As a result of these problems, Quanex incurred significant unexpected costs, which delayed the anticipated benefits of the Tyman acquisition and integration.
- The company’s financial results were negatively impacted, with Quanex reporting a diluted EPS of ($6.04) for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $0.77 in the prior year, a dramatic decline of over 800%.
- On September 4, 2025, Quanex announced these operational issues and their impact on earnings. The following day, Quanex’s stock price dropped 13.1%, closing at $18.18 per share.
- The decline continued on September 8, 2025, with the stock falling another 10.9% to $16.20 per share, about a 23% loss over two trading days.
The lawsuit claims that Quanex’s public statements during the class period were materially misleading because they failed to reveal the true condition of the Tyman Mexico facility and the associated risks.
