Ironwood Pharmaceuticals stock rises premarket after Citizens upgrade, Wells Fargo target lift
Ironwood Pharmaceuticals shares rose about 1% premarket Monday after Citizens upgraded the stock, citing eased pricing pressure on Linzess. The company last week cut Linzess’s list price by about 50% and forecast 2026 revenue of $450–$475 million. Shares closed up 26.7% Friday at $4.27, with trading volume surging to 85 million. Ironwood remains in a strategic alternatives review and plans a Phase 3 apraglutide trial in 2026.
