ACI Investor Alert: Levi & Korsinsky Notifies Investors of Investigation Into Albertsons Companies (ACI)
Albertsons shareholders who lost money after the July 23, 2026 FY 2026 guidance cut may have rights. Levi & Korsinsky is reviewing the April guidance and the sharply lower July update.
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–A 22% drop hit Albertsons Companies (NYSE: ACI) shares on July 23, 2026, after the Company cut FY 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $1.75-$1.85 from $2.22-$2.32. Investors who held ACI through the guidance cut and suffered losses should act promptly. ACI shareholders who lost money are encouraged to submit their loss details now or contact Levi & Korsinsky, LLP | (212) 363-7500 | www.zlk.com
On April 14, 2026, CFO Sharon McCollam told investors that adjusted EPS was expected “to be in the range of $2.22 to $2.32,” including approximately $600 million of share repurchases. CEO Susan Morris stated that Albertsons was entering fiscal 2026 from a position of “confidence, clarity and momentum.” The July 23 update cut the adjusted EPS range by roughly 20% at the midpoint.
Albertsons’ April 27, 2026 Form 10-K identified pharmacy reimbursement pressure, the potential impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act and macroeconomic uncertainty as material risks to the Company’s business and financial performance. After the July 23 reduction, Levi & Korsinsky is investigating potential securities law violations connected to the Company’s FY 2026 guidance and the timing of the lower outlook. The investigation focuses on investors who lost money in the July 23 decline.
