Shares of Omeros fell after the company reported lower royalties after sales of its partner Rayner fell.

The stock fell 14% to $3.42 after touching a 52-week low. Shares have risen 3.2% over the past 12 months.

The biopharmaceutical company on Thursday posted a loss of $33.5 million, or 58 cents a share, compared with a loss of $37.2 million, or 63 cents a share, a year earlier. Analysts polled by FactSet expected a loss of 57 cents a share.

The company saw $6.7 million in royalties for its Omidria treatment from Rayner's U.S. sales of $22.3 million, down from royalties of $9.4 million on sales of $31.2 million a year ago.

The company also said it has temporarily paused certain activities to prioritize spending on the launch of narsoplimab, a treatment for transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy.

The suspended operations include its Phase 3 trial evaluating zaltenibart, a treatment for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.
