PHILADELPHIA, July 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Berger Montague PC advises investors that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed against Organon & Co. (“Organon” or the “Company”) (NYSE: OGN) on behalf of purchasers of Organon securities between October 31, 2024 through April 30, 2025, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

Organon, headquartered in Jersey City, NJ, is a healthcare company focused on women’s health. In October 2024, Organon acquired Dermavant, a biopharmaceutical company focused on dermatological conditions, for $1.2 billion.
According to the lawsuit, despite the increase in debt from the Dermavant acquisition, the Company assured investors that it would maintain its dividend, which it described as its “#1 capital allocation priority.”
On May 1, 2025, investors learned the truth when Organon announced that management reset the Company’s dividend payout from $0.28 per share to $0.02 per share. Organon’s senior management explained that the Company had “reset our capital allocation priorities to accelerate progress towards deleveraging” and that “returning capital to shareholders is right now, less of a priority.”
On this news, the price of Organon stock declined $3.48 per share – approximately 27% – from a closing price of $12.93 per share on April 30, 2025 to a close of $9.45 per share on May 1, 2025.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. Communicating with any counsel is not necessary to participate or share in any recovery achieved in this case. Any member of the purported class may move the Court to serve as a lead plaintiff through counsel of his/her choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an inactive class member.
