What's Happening?
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a national securities law firm, is reminding investors of LifeMD, Inc. about the upcoming deadline to participate as lead plaintiffs in a federal securities class action lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that LifeMD and its executives made false and misleading statements regarding the company's competitive position and financial guidance. Specifically, the complaint claims that LifeMD overstated its competitive position and failed to account for rising customer acquisition costs, particularly in its RexMD segment and for drugs treating obesity. Following the announcement of revised financial guidance, LifeMD's stock fell by 44.8% on August 6, 2025. Investors who suffered losses exceeding $50,000 between May 7, 2025, and August 5, 2025, are encouraged to contact Faruqi & Faruqi for legal consultation.

What's Next?
