10% owner Scilex Holding sells 15.97M shares at blended $0.83, down -78.6% from 52-week high; unprofitable company
Scilex Holding, a 10% owner, executed three separate sales totaling 15,965,541 shares for $13,215,896.16 on 2026-01-12 through 2026-01-14 at prices ranging from $0.72 to $0.91 (blended average $0.83). This represents a -6.9% reduction in holdings from 229,731,770 to 213,766,229 shares. The sales occurred as the stock trades at $0.72 current price, reflecting a -78.6% decline from its 52-week high of $3.36 and a -42.8% drop over the preceding 30 days. The company remains unprofitable (latest quarter net income: $-32,976,000.00) despite annual revenue growth of 28.4%, indicating significant cash burn. The recent and rapid sequence of three same-ticker sales within a 3-day window in early January, combined with the stock's severe multi-month deterioration and the company's persistent losses, suggests heightened liquidity management by a major shareholder during a period of material weakness.
