NEW YORK, March 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Kerrisdale Capital, a private investment manager, has published a negative report explaining its short position in Proteostasis Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTI), a development-stage biopharmaceutical company whose market value is based primarily on PTI-428, its lead drug candidate for the treatment of cystic fibrosis. Proteostasis's stock price increased ~100% after the FDA granted the drug Breakthrough Therapy and Orphan Drug designations, but Kerrisdale's analysis demonstrates that PTI-428 is likely ineffective. Kerrisdale also details a pattern of low-quality data and troubling omissions in Proteostasis's public disclosures.

Kerrisdale has a short position in Proteostasis Therapeutics, Inc., and stands to benefit if its share price falls.
