CORAL GABLES, Fla., Oct. 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Catalyst” or “Company”) (Nasdaq: CPRX), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on in-licensing, developing and commercializing novel medicines for people living with rare and difficult-to-treat diseases, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $200 million of shares of Catalyst's outstanding common stock between October 1, 2025, and December 31, 2026.

“Catalyst has a strong balance sheet, which reflected more than $650 million in cash and cash equivalents and no funded debt as of June 30, 2025, solid operating results, a demonstrated focus on execution, and significant cash flow generation. Based on all of these factors, we believe that we can execute this share repurchase program without impairing the advancement of our business development strategy," said Richard J. Daly, President and CEO, of Catalyst. "Further, we believe that this repurchase program will enable us to provide value to our stockholders. We also are confident in our long-term outlook and our continued investment in growth targets that could make a meaningful difference in the lives of people living with rare diseases.”

Repurchases under the new share repurchase program may be made through a variety of methods, including open market or privately negotiated purchases. The timing and amount of shares repurchased will depend on the stock price, business and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities, acquisition opportunities and other factors. Catalyst is not obligated to repurchase any specific amount of shares of common stock, and the share repurchase program may be suspended or terminated at any time. Catalyst plans to use existing cash on hand to fund its share repurchase program.
