Orexo fell slightly, more than the market.

OMX Stockholm 30 fell clearly the same day, so Orexo's drop was milder than the index's.

Over the last five trading days Orexo fell very sharply while the market was roughly flat.

That fall was very big for Orexo, rarer than any five-day stretch in the past year.

The main driver is the rights issue, which sets a low subscription price of SEK 0.80 and dilutes existing shares.

Today's move of −1.58% was 0.7 times a normal day's 2.2%. OMX Stockholm 30 moved −1.01% on the same day.

    Orexo fell very sharply over the week, while the wider Stockholm market was roughly flat.

    The drop was likely driven by the company's rights issue, a share sale that raises new money from existing shareholders at a steep discount, announced on 2 November with a subscription price of 0.80 SEK.

    Shareholders approved the issue at an extraordinary general meeting on 6 November, and subscriptions run from 12 to 26 November.

    Short selling, betting against the stock, also rose in late October and early November, which may have added pressure.

  • −4.01% market −0.32% Orexo fell, moving well apart from the market. Read →

    Orexo fell, moving well apart from the market.

    Shares dropped as the rights issue was priced at SEK 0.80, far below the recent price.

    The stock had already fallen sharply over the last five trading days, while the OMX Stockholm 30 rose slightly.

    Trading volume was well above normal, and the stock sits at its lowest close of the year.

    Orexo fell as its rights issue was priced at SEK 0.80.

    Over the same day the Stockholm market rose clearly, so Orexo moved against the market.

    A rights issue lets existing shareholders buy new shares at a set price, and a price this far below the market price makes the new shares cheap compared with the current one.

    Subscription, the period when shareholders can buy the new shares, runs from 12 to 26 November 2026.

    Orexo fell as rights issue terms were set.

    Over the last five trading days, Orexo fell very sharply while the OMX Stockholm 30 rose slightly.

    Dilution from new shares and selling pressure from the issue likely drove the decline.

    Shares are priced near their lowest close of the year.

    Orexo fell sharply without company news.

    Orexo fell very sharply in the last session while OMX Stockholm 30 rose slightly, so the stock moved against the market.

    The fall came on heavy trading, roughly twice a normal session, and the move was about five times a typical day for the stock.

    Over the last five trading days, Orexo fell very sharply while the market rose clearly, a move about three times a normal five-day stretch.

    Peer Healthcare stocks on Nasdaq Stockholm rose modestly over the same days, so the sector did not drive the fall.

    Orexo fell sharply over the last five trading days, moving against a market that rose clearly.

    The move was big for Orexo, rare compared with its usual weekly swings.

    The FDA accepted the resubmitted Izipry application on Thursday 29 October and set a decision target of 29 March 2027, which was the week's main company news.

    Over the same days the healthcare sector rose modestly, so Orexo's fall was company-specific.

  • −2.55% market +0.41% Orexo fell clearly. Read →

    Orexo fell clearly.

    FDA accepted the resubmitted IZIPRY application for review on the trading day, with a decision expected by late March 2027.

    The share price also fell over the last five trading days, while the market rose sharply.

    The drop is likely partly due to the company's recent weak third-quarter results, a rights issue of about SEK 250 million, and heavy short-selling that has been rising.

    Next, watch for the extraordinary general meeting on November 6, 2026, which will vote on the rights issue.

    Orexo fell sharply over the last five trading days, while the Stockholm market was roughly flat.

    In the last session it fell sharply while the market rose clearly, so it moved against the market.

    Orexo fell sharply over the last five trading days, a bigger drop than the wider Stockholm market.

    The fall came after its third-quarter report, which showed a deeper loss and almost no revenue.

    Investors also reacted to the planned rights issue, a share sale that can dilute existing shareholders.

    Its shares sit close to their lowest level of the past year.

  • −3.18% market −2.51% Orexo fell sharply as Q3 results and a rights issue weighed on it. Read →

    Orexo fell sharply as Q3 results and a rights issue weighed on it.

    Orexo moved in line with the broader Stockholm market in the last session, which fell clearly.

    Over the last five trading days, Orexo fell sharply, moving more than OMX Stockholm 30, which also fell clearly.

    The move was big for Orexo, rarer than most five-day stretches, and trading volume was heavy.

    Likely drivers are the third-quarter report, showing a weak revenue and a larger loss per share, plus the planned SEK 250 million rights issue, which dilutes existing shareholders, and the share price now sits at its lowest close of the past year.
