Olaplex has seen its stock fall nearly 95% since its 2021 IPO after weakened demand, regulatory challenges and a 2023 lawsuit alleging hair damage that was later dismissed but hurt the brand. Fiscal 2023 U.S. net sales plunged 47.8% and net income fell 74.8%, while full-year 2025 sales were essentially flat despite a 4.3% Q4 increase. New CEO Amanda Baldwin is refocusing the brand with product innovation and marketing changes, but analysts remain cautious as competition and damaged perception pose ongoing headwinds; takeover interest from Henkel briefly lifted the stock. » Altro su cnbc.com
