STOUGHTON, Mass., Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc. (Nasdaq: COLL), a leading biopharmaceutical company focused on improving the lives of people living with serious and often misunderstood conditions, today announced that it has entered into an Accelerated Share Repurchase ("ASR") agreement with Jefferies LLC to repurchase $50 million of the Company’s common stock. Collegium will execute the ASR as part of the $150 million share repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors in July 2025. Upon completion of this ASR, Collegium will have $100 million remaining under the program.

“Collegium’s strong financial position, rapidly growing ADHD portfolio and robust cash generation provide us with substantial flexibility to execute our disciplined capital allocation strategy," said Vikram Karnani, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Given our confidence in the long-term growth trajectory of our ADHD portfolio and the expected durability of our pain business, we believe our current valuation does not fully reflect the strength of our business or our future prospects. Accordingly, we view this share repurchase program as a compelling opportunity to create long-term shareholder value. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to a balanced capital allocation strategy that includes investing behind our key growth drivers, further diversifying our portfolio, rapidly reducing debt and opportunistically repurchasing shares."

Under terms of the agreement, Collegium will pay $50 million to Jefferies LLC and will receive an initial delivery of 1,556,420 shares, based on the $25.70 closing stock price of Collegium’s common stock on August 12, 2026, representing approximately 80% of the total shares the Company expects to repurchase under the ASR agreement. The final number of shares repurchased will be based on the volume-weighted average prices of Collegium’s common stock during the term of the ASR and subject to adjustments related to the terms and conditions of the ASR agreement. The final settlement of the ASR is expected to be completed no later than the fourth quarter of 2026. As of June 30, 2026, Collegium had approximately 32.5 million shares outstanding.
