Shares of Quantum-Si declined after the company said it entered into a stock buyback agreement with a group of institutional investors that is expected to raise about $50 million.
The protein sequencing company's stock fell 14% to $3.69 in after-hours trading on Friday. The shares closed the market session up less than 1%, and have more than doubled in price in the past 12 months.
Quantum-Si expects to purchase and sell about 15.6 million shares of common stock at $3.20 a per share, the company said. Net proceeds are expected to be use for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The offering is set to close on Jan. 6.
