PRINCETON, N.J., March 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd.

All outstanding loans with funds managed by Pharmakon will accrue interest at a fixed rate of 8.25% and be repaid in four equal quarterly payments commencing in the first quarter of 2030. There are no financial covenants associated with the amended loan.

"We are pleased to announce our expanded partnership with Pharmakon," said Chris Degnan, Chief Financial Officer of UroGen. "This refinancing strengthens UroGen's financial position by lowering our overall cost of capital, extending our maturity profile, and enhancing balance sheet flexibility.
