Acquisition financed by dilutive stock issuance and convertible debt with high interest rate, causing 19% share drop.
Profusa shares dropped 19% in pre-market trading after the digital health company announced a non-binding term sheet to acquire a privately held commercial-stage diagnostics and toxicology testing company. The target company reported estimated 2025 net revenues of approximately $111 million based on unaudited management information. Under the contemplated transaction, Profusa will issue common shares equal to 19.99% of its outstanding shares to the target's stockholders, with the remainder in non-voting convertible preferred stock, subject to shareholder approval. Profusa also expects to close on approximately $7 million in financing through a convertible note with a 12-month term, a 9% original issue discount, and a 7% interest rate that rises to 18% upon default. The company implemented a 1-for-25 reverse stock split on July 7, 2026, and announced management changes including the appointment of Jack Stover as Executive Chairman and CEO.
