Event Summary

On June 16, 2026, Jehoshaphat Research published a short report questioning Gildan's organic growth and sales practices, claiming that the company's organic growth has been negative for years despite appearing to show revenue growth, and that this decline was obscured by financial engineering. Following the report, Gildan's NYSE-listed shares fell 18.7%. Subsequently, Rosen Law Firm began investigating potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders and is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses. The firm encourages investors who purchased Gildan securities to join the prospective class action.
