QLT Inc. (T.QLT) hit a new 52-week high of $4.80; QLT Inc. announced that it has received an income tax refund of Cdn$45.3 million from the Canada Revenue Agency. The income tax refund resulted primarily from a request to carryback losses the Company incurred in 2007 in connection with the judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in favour of Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.
The amount of the refund, before certain minor adjustments, was reflected in the previously filed financial statements of the Company, including as part of the income tax receivable balance at June 30, 2009. As a result, the tax refund is not expected to have any material effect on the Company's current period statement of operations.
