Insys falls after saying may be unable to continue as going concern

Insys Therapeutics shares dropped after the company said it may not be able to continue as a going concern. Insys this morning disclosed in its latest annual filing, “The auditor’s opinion on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 includes an explanatory paragraph stating that our losses and negative cash flows from operations and uncertainty in generating sufficient cash to meet our legal obligations and settlements and sustain our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While we are pursuing a variety of funding sources and transactions that could raise capital, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in these efforts or will be able to resolve our liquidity issues or eliminate our operating losses. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funding, we would need to significantly reduce our operating plans and curtail some or all of our product development, commercialization and strategic plans. Accordingly, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected, and we may be unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets and may receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our audited consolidated financial statements, and it is likely that investors will lose all or a part of their investment. If we seek additional financing to fund our business activities in the future and there remains substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, investors or other financing sources may be unwilling to provide additional funding on commercially reasonable terms or at all.” Shares of Insys dropped 9.5%, or 54c, to $5.14 before being halted for volatility.
