Torm Shares Drop After Major Shareholder Announces Secondary Offering

The transaction involves existing shares and does not result in new share issuance or dilution for Torm shareholders.

Morgan Securities LLC granted an option to purchase up to an additional 1.35 million shares within 30 days. The offering could result in the sale of as many as 10.35 million existing shares. The announcement came after Torm’s stock had been trading near its 52-week high, and broader U.S. equity markets were also down slightly on Tuesday.
