Ionis Pharmaceuticals shares plummet after slow rollout of Tryngolza
Ionis Pharmaceuticals lost more than $1 billion in market value on Monday after the company slashed sales projections for a triglyceride-lowering drug the biotech and Wall Street analysts believe is a potential blockbuster.
The firm announced that it expects the drug, Tryngolza, to bring in $50 million in sales by the end of this year, compared to Ionis’ previous forecast of $100 to $110 million. Third quarter sales came in at $9 million, well below Wall Street consensus expectations of $21 million during the quarter.
The stock reaction was swift. Shares that traded at more than $39 when the market opened within hours sank below $28, a drop of around 25%.

A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
