Jaguar Health extends debt maturity to 2026

In a recent development, Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX), a pharmaceutical company with a market capitalization of $10.52 million, has amended its financial obligations by extending the maturity date of a significant secured promissory note. According to InvestingPro data, the company operates with a significant debt burden and has been quickly burning through cash. This move is expected to have implications for the company’s financial strategy.

On February 13, 2025, Jaguar Health, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., collectively referred to as the Borrower, modified their agreement with Streeterville Capital, LLC, concerning a secured promissory note originally issued on January 19, 2021. The note, which had an initial principal amount of $6,220,812.50, is now due on January 20, 2026, extending the period for repayment. This restructuring comes as the company maintains a total debt of $34.27 million, though it maintains a current ratio of 1.84, indicating adequate short-term liquidity.

The note is part of a larger Note Purchase Agreement between the Borrower and Streeterville, which has also been amended accordingly. The details of this Note Amendment are disclosed in an exhibit filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

This financial maneuver by Jaguar Health, which operates in the pharmaceutical preparations industry under the ticker (NASDAQ:JAGX), indicates a restructuring of its debt obligations.
