Dermavant Transaction
On October 28, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its entire equity interest in its majority-owned subsidiary, Dermavant, to Organon.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Organon agreed to acquire Dermavant for aggregate cash consideration comprising (i) a payment of $175.0 million payable at the closing of the Dermavant Transaction, subject to certain adjustments, (ii) a $75.0 million milestone payment payable upon FDA approval of VTAMA (the “Product”) for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (the “AD Approval Milestone”) and (iii) up to $950.0 million in additional milestone payments payable upon achievement of certain tiered net sales amounts (each less than or equal to $1.0 billion) with respect to the Product. Additionally, Organon agreed to make tiered royalty payments of (x) low-to-mid single digit percentages with respect to annual net sales of the Product up to $1.0 billion and (y) 30% with respect to annual net sales of the Product above $1.0 billion. Such consideration and royalty payments are subject to certain post-closing adjustments and are payable to all of Dermavant’s equity holders, including holders of Dermavant RSUs, options and warrants, on a pro rata basis relative to their ownership of Dermavant prior to the closing of the Dermavant Transaction (in each case, after giving effect to the liquidation preference of Dermavant’s preference shares, all of which are held by the Company, and otherwise in accordance with the applicable terms of such securities). Under the liquidation preference of Dermavant’s preference shares, the Company is entitled to receive 100% of the first $270.0 million of consideration paid pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The Company received $183.6 million in cash in October 2024 upon the closing of the Dermavant Transaction, subject to certain post-closing adjustments that are not expected to be significant. The AD Approval Milestone was achieved in December 2024, and the Company received payment of the $75.0 million AD Approval Milestone in January 2025, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.
As contemplated by the Merger Agreement, in connection with the closing of the Dermavant Transaction, Dermavant repaid all amounts outstanding or otherwise payable (including accrued interest and all premiums and exit fees) pursuant to a senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), dated as of May 14, 2021 and amended as of May 24, 2024, by and among Dermavant, certain subsidiaries of Dermavant, XYQ Luxco S.A.R.L. and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, and terminated the Credit Facility in accordance with its terms.
Following the closing of the Dermavant Transaction, all rights and obligations under each of (A) the Revenue Interest Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of May 14, 2021 and amended as of May 24, 2024, by and among Dermavant, Dermavant Sciences GmbH, XYQ Luxco S.A.R.L., NovaQuest Co-Investment Funds XVII, L.P., MAM Tapir Lender, LLC and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association and (B) the Funding Agreement, dated as of July 10, 2018 and amended as of May 24, 2024, by and among Dermavant, Dermavant Sciences GmbH and NovaQuest Co-Investment Fund VIII, L.P., were retained by Dermavant and its subsidiaries, which became indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Organon.
