6.      Discontinued Operations

On December 2, 2024, the Company and Intas entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “UDENYCA Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to divest the UDENYCA franchise (the “UDENYCA Business”) to Intas (the “UDENYCA Sale”). On April 11, 2025 (the “UDENYCA Closing Date”), the Company completed the divestiture of the UDENYCA Business to Intas for upfront, all-cash consideration of $483.4 million, inclusive of $118.4 million for UDENYCA product inventory. In 2025, the Company recognized a net gain on the UDENYCA Sale of $338.3 million, which included the cash receipts less net assets transferred to Accord or otherwise derecognized and transaction expenses of $10.7 million. Intas designated Accord BioPharma, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Intas (“Accord” and, together with Intas, the “Intas Parties”) to purchase the physical assets, including product inventory. The Company is eligible to receive two additional payments of $37.5 million each (together, the “Earnout Payments”). The first such payment is payable by Intas to the Company if net sales (as defined in the UDENYCA Purchase Agreement, “Net Sales”) of UDENYCA for four consecutive fiscal quarters from July 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026 are equal to or greater than $300 million, and the second such payment is payable by Intas to the Company if Net Sales of UDENYCA for four consecutive fiscal quarters from July 1, 2025 through March 31, 2027 are equal to or greater than $350 million.

On June 26, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its YUSIMRY immunology franchise (the “YUSIMRY Sale”). On March 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its CIMERLI ophthalmology franchise through the sale of its subsidiary, Coherus Ophthalmology LLC, to Sandoz (the “CIMERLI Sale” and, together with the UDENYCA Sale and the YUSIMRY Sale, the “Sale Transactions”).

The UDENYCA Sale represented the last and most significant divestiture of the Company’s biosimilar businesses, which comprised the UDENYCA, YUSIMRY and CIMERLI franchises; therefore, the strategic shift criteria had been met

and discontinued operations presentation has been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

The Company used a portion of the proceeds of the UDENYCA Sale to repay substantially all of the outstanding 2026 Convertible Notes (see Note 8. Financial Liabilities) and to buy out the right to receive royalties on net sales of UDENYCA in accordance with the Revenue Purchase and Sale Agreement, and thus the related interest expense has been presented within discontinued operations.

The following table presents a reconciliation of discontinued operations for the periods presented:

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net revenue was primarily driven by changes in provisions related to sales made in prior years.

Assets of discontinued operations were entirely derecognized as of April 11, 2025.

The following table presents the balance sheet classifications of assets and liabilities that were related to the Company’s biosimilar businesses but did not transfer to any of the buyers in the Sale Transactions, and thus were not classified as discontinued operations:

Cash flows from continuing operations and discontinued operations have been presented together in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, operating cash flows from discontinued operations primarily reflected $3.3 million of payments for TSA related operating assets and liabilities, net. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, operating cash flows from discontinued operations were primarily due to an increase in inventory of $22.9 million, partially offset by the $11.8 million change in fair value for the UDENCYA portion of the Royalty Fee Derivative Liability.  

In connection with the Sale Transactions, the Company entered into separate TSAs with each of the buyers pursuant to which the Company has been providing certain business support services including billings, collections, and the remittance of rebates, to ensure business continuity for patients and customers for specified periods. Under each of the TSAs, the Company is entitled to be reimbursed for its costs. Such reimbursements were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and were recorded as a reduction to operating expenses or in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
