Shares of Revance Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: RVNC) plummeted nearly 16% in pre-market trading on Wednesday, as the company's third-quarter results fell short of expectations, and concerns mounted over its pending merger deal with Crown Laboratories.
Revance reported a narrower-than-expected quarterly loss of $0.37 per share, beating analysts' estimates of a $0.38 loss. However, the company's revenue of $59.9 million missed the consensus forecast of $68.2 million, driven by lower average selling prices for its aesthetic products DAXXIFY and the RHA Collection.
Adding to investors' concerns, Revance announced that it would not provide any forward-looking guidance for 2024 and withdrew any previously issued guidance, citing the proposed merger with Crown Laboratories. The company also revealed that the deadline for commencing the tender offer related to the merger has been extended to November 12, 2024, as the offer has not yet commenced due to discussions around an alleged breach of a distribution agreement with Teoxane.
