The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces that it is investigating claims on behalf of investors of James Hardie Industries plc (“James Hardie” or “the Company”) (NYSE: JHX) for violations of the securities laws.

The investigation focuses on whether the Company issued false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose information pertinent to investors. James Hardie announced its Q1 2026 results on August 19, 2025. The Company disclosed a massive 29% decline in quarterly profits while also forecasting lower-than-expected full-year earnings. The Company blamed this shortfall in part on high borrowing costs. Based on this news, ADRs of James Hardie fell by more than 34.4% on the next day.
