Shareholder activist DOMA Perpetual nominated three directors to the company’s board and called for the removal of CEO Frank Lee, citing poor financial performance over the years.

DOMA Perpetual stated that Pacira BioSciences’ stock has declined 56% over the past 10 years, 68% over the past 5 years, and 30% during Lee’s tenure as CEO.
