~ Financing Comprised of $50 Million Credit Facility and $3 Million Equity Investment ~~ Simultaneously Retiring Existing Debt ~~ Funds Received at Close Provide Sufficient Cash Under Current Operating Plan to Extend Cash Runway to Positive Cash Flow ~
“We are pleased to have both the support and confidence of CRG, a premier partner known for its strategic investments to support the growth of healthcare companies,” said Matthew Pauls, chief executive officer of Strongbridge. “We executed this financing to transform the financial outlook of the Company by fully funding our operating plan until we attain positive cash flow. The funds received at closing provide sufficient resources for us to build upon the early uptake and demand that we are seeing for KEVEYIS® (dichlorphenamide), and to fund RECORLEV™ (levoketoconazole) through potential regulatory approval and launch,” Pauls added.
“Strongbridge is in a unique position to address major areas of unmet need in rare disease," said Luke Düster, managing director at CRG. “CRG looks forward to working with Strongbridge as they continue to build their global business and advance their product pipeline. Our due diligence has confirmed our belief that Strongbridge's portfolio has great potential and that access to funds from this financing will help build value for the Company.”
The term loan agreement has a six-year term with three years of interest-only payments. The interest-only period may be extended to six years based upon the achievement of certain milestones during the first three years of the loan term. As a condition to the new credit facility, the Company issued warrants with a seven-year term to CRG to purchase 394,289 of the Company’s ordinary shares at an exercise price of $7.37 per share. After the retirement of existing debt and payment of expenses associated with the financing, Strongbridge intends to use the remainder of the upfront proceeds from the credit facility and equity investment for general corporate purposes and working capital.
Additional details regarding this financing will be available in the Company’s Current Report on Form 6-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Armentum Partners served as financial advisor to Strongbridge for this transaction.
