On or around June 19, 2020, Progenity conducted its initial public offering ("IPO"), selling 6,666,667 shares of common stock priced at $15.00 per share. Then, on February 8, 2021, Wells Fargo downgraded Progenity to "underweight" from "overweight," having concluded that the Company's customer attrition and payor clawbacks had exceeded expectations.

On news of the downgrade, Progenity's stock price fell $0.42 per share, or 6.76%, to close at $5.79 per share on February 8, 2021. Since the IPO, Progenity's stock price has closed as low as $3.27 per share, representing a decline of more than 78% from the offering price.
