"Intercept Pharmaceuticals Shares Tumble 17% Following Financial Repositioning Published: Sept. 21, 2022 at 12:34 p.m. ET By Denny Jacob
Intercept Pharmaceuticals Inc. shares tumbled after the company said it has taken actions to improve its capital position.
Shares tumbled 17% to $14.75, the lowest intraday level since Aug. 4, according to FactSet.
The biopharmaceutical company said the sale of its international business and secured convertible notes repurchases, among other efforts, lowered its principal debt outstanding. It said it decreased debt by 54% to $336.3 million, and decreased its annual cash interest expense by 58% to $9.8 million on an annual basis.
"We are net debt positive for the first time since 2019 and have the financial flexibility to propel our business forward focusing on our core strategic imperatives of growing our PBC franchise, progressing our NASH development program, and advancing our pipeline products," said Chief Executive Jerry Durso."
