Previous report
We are currently involved in a product liability action and the unfavorable jury verdict could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and business.
Previous report
On October 6, 2020, the Company was named as a co-defendant in a lawsuit, Eileen Williams, Elizabeth Perkins, et al. v. Wabash National Corporation, et al., filed in the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, Missouri (the “Product Liability Matter”). The case related to a 2019 motor vehicle accident in which a passenger vehicle with an unobstructed view struck the back of a nearly stopped 2004 Wabash trailer that was operated by co-defendant GDS Express Inc. at the time of the accident. On September 5, 2024, a jury awarded compensatory damages of $12 million and punitive damages of $450 million against the Company in the Product Liability Matter. On November 22, 2024, applying an offset related to the plaintiff’s settlement with a separate defendant, the Circuit Court entered judgment in the Product Liability Matter consisting of compensatory damages of $11.5 million and punitive damages of $450 million. On March 20, 2025, the Circuit Court determined that the punitive damage award in the Product Liability Matter did not comport with the Company’s constitutional rights. Accordingly, the Circuit Court ordered the punitive damages award reduced to $108 million with the compensatory damages award remaining at $11.5 million (collectively, the “Adjusted Award”). The Company has filed a notice of appeal.
Previous report
If we are unable to further reduce the Adjusted Award through successful appeal, the Award could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and business.
