Omeros reports Q1 EPS (58c), consensus (60c)

“We are pleased that our BLA for narsoplimab in TA-TMA has been accepted by FDA, which is a significant milestone for our narsoplimab program and for Omeros (OMER),” said Gregory A. Demopulos, M.D., Omeros’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We have already received and are responding to FDA’s information requests, and our highest priority as an organization is to obtain approval for narsoplimab. For this reason, we have taken action to reduce expenses and prioritize spending on the narsoplimab launch and other key priorities. In parallel, through the recently completed exchange of the large majority of our 2026 convertible notes for convertible notes maturing in 2029 and converting a small portion to equity, our total debt will be reduced by approximately $10.0 million and our near-term debt maturities will be lowered by over $100 million, reducing our short-term debt repayment obligations from approximately $118 million to approximately $17 million. This should position us well to raise additional capital for our operations.”
