07:38 AM EDT, 04/27/2026 (MT Newswires) -- The US Supreme Court will hear Bayer's (BAYN.F) appeal of a Missouri state court jury verdict awarding $1.25 million to a man who claimed that prolonged exposure to glyphosate in Roundup caused non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

The court will hear the German pharmaceutical company's arguments on Monday as the company looks to block the large number of lawsuits alleging that it failed to warn users that the active ingredient in the weedkiller causes cancer, Reuters reported the same day.

More than 100,000 people have launched lawsuits in US state ​and federal courts.

Bayer did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
