Is there a correlation between this and the lack of sample clustering in a PCA plot?

I am using qualimap to assess the quality of my alignments.
However for most samples I am having around 12% of intronic reads. I know for a fact I have no gDNA contamination. What is causing this to happen?
This is due to a combination of pre-mRNA, intron inclusion, and unannotated exons.

How about intergenic reads? Why is it bad to have 50% intergenic reads?
Perhaps this wasn't polyA enriched, in which case that would be quite reasonable.
