Flora Growth Corp (FLGC) experienced a significant decline of 9.28% during regular trading, crossing below its 20-day SMA, as broader market indices also fell, with the Nasdaq-100 down 1.37% and the S&P 500 down 0.76%.
This decline is attributed to broad market weakness, as the company recently filed a Form 1-A with the SEC to sell up to 30 million common shares at $2.50 each, aiming to raise up to $75 million. Despite this effort, the stock has seen a substantial decline of 85.25% over the past year, reflecting ongoing challenges in the market.
The implications of this price movement suggest that investors are cautious amid the current market conditions, and the company's financial struggles, including a net loss of $3.4 million, may further impact investor sentiment.
