CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”), Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs or intentions regarding our product development efforts, business, financial condition, results of operations, strategies or prospects, operating results, cash flows and/or financial condition. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results as of the date they are made. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause our actual activities or results to differ materially from the activities and results anticipated in forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, economic, political, regulatory and market conditions and fluctuations, including policy changes, inflation, tariffs, interest rate and foreign currency risk inherent in U.S. and international operations. These factors also include those described below and in “Item 1A-Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and described from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the PSLRA. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and reflect our views as of the date they are made with respect to future events and financial performance.

 

Risks and uncertainties, the occurrence of which could adversely affect our business, include the following:

 

 

we have had a history of losses and may not generate sustained positive cash flow sufficient to fund our operations and research and development programs;

 

our need for, and ability to obtain, additional financing when needed on favorable terms, or at all;

 

adverse results in material litigation matters or governmental inquiries;

 

the risks inherent in developing, obtaining regulatory approvals for and commercializing new, commercially viable and competitive products and treatments;

 

our research and development activities may not result in commercially viable products;

 

that earlier clinical results of effectiveness and safety may not be reproducible or indicative of future results;

 

that we may not generate or sustain profits or cash flow from our laboratory operations or substantial revenue from NGENLA® (Somatrogon), Rayaldee and our other pharmaceutical and diagnostic products;

 

our ability to manage our changing operations;

 

that our acquisition of ModeX Therapeutics, Inc. will be successful and the products in the R&D pipeline will ultimately be commercialized;

 

that currently available over-the-counter and prescription products, as well as products under development by others, may prove to be as or more effective than our products for the indications being studied;

 

our ability and our distribution and marketing partners’ ability to comply with regulatory requirements regarding the sales, marketing and manufacturing of our products and product candidates and the operation of our laboratories;

 

the performance of our third-party distribution partners, licensees and manufacturers over which we have limited control;

 

changes in regulation and policies in the U.S. and other countries, including increasing downward pressure on healthcare reimbursement;

 

increased competition, including price competition;

 

our success is dependent on the involvement and continued efforts of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer;

 

integration challenges for acquired businesses;

 

 

 

changing relationships with payors, including the various state and multi-state programs, suppliers and strategic partners;

 

efforts by third-party payors to reduce utilization and reimbursement for clinical testing services;

 

our ability to maintain reimbursement coverage for our products and services, including Rayaldee and the 4Kscore test;

 

failure to timely or accurately bill and collect for our services;

 

the information technology systems that we rely on may be subject to unauthorized tampering, cyberattack or other data security or privacy incidents that could impact our billing processes or disrupt our operations;

 

failure to obtain and retain new clients and business partners, or a reduction in tests ordered or specimens submitted by existing clients;

 

failure to establish, and perform to, appropriate quality standards to assure that the highest level of quality is observed in the performance of our testing services;

 

failure to maintain the security of patient-related information;

 

our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our products;

 

our ability to defend our intellectual property rights with respect to our products;

 

our ability to operate our business without infringing the intellectual property rights of others;

 

our ability to attract and retain key scientific and management personnel;

 

the risk that the carrying value of certain assets may exceed the fair value of the assets causing us to impair goodwill or other intangible assets;

 

our ability to comply with the terms of our 2022 Corporate Integrity Agreement with the U.S. Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services;

 

failure to obtain and maintain regulatory approval for our products and services outside the U.S.; 

 

legal, economic, political, regulatory, currency exchange, and other risks associated with international operations;

 

disruptions to operations, including impact on employees, and business continuity, including physical damage or impaired access to company facilities, office of technology from the recent conflicts in the Middle East;

 

unstable economic and market conditions may have adverse consequences on our business and financial condition; and

 

changes in personnel and funding for government agencies, including the FDA, could negatively impact our business and financial condition.

OPKO Health, Inc. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

 

OPKO Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“OPKO”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a diversified healthcare company that seeks to establish industry-leading positions in large and rapidly growing medical markets. Our pharmaceutical business features Somatrogon (hGH-CTP), a once-weekly human growth hormone injection. We have partnered with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”) for further development and commercialization of Somatrogon (hGH-CTP). Regulatory approvals for Somatrogon (hGH-CTP) for the treatment of children and adolescents, as young as three years of age, with growth disturbance due to insufficient secretion of growth hormone, have been secured in more than 50 markets worldwide, including in the United States, European Union Member States, Japan, Canada, and Australia under the brand name NGENLA®. Also, through our pharmaceutical division, we manufacture and sell Rayaldee, a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved treatment for secondary hyperparathyroidism (“SHPT”) in adults with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease (“CKD”) and vitamin D insufficiency.

 

Our subsidiary, ModeX Therapeutics, Inc. (“ModeX”), which we acquired in May 2022, is a biotechnology company focused on developing innovative multi-specific immune therapies for cancer and infectious disease candidates. ModeX has a robust early-stage pipeline with assets in key areas of immuno-oncology and infectious diseases, and we intend to further expand our pharmaceutical product pipeline through ModeX’s portfolio of development candidates.

 

Our diagnostics business, BioReference Health, LLC (“BioReference”), is a highly specialized laboratory in the United States, with a sales and marketing team focused on growth and new product integration, including the 4Kscore® prostate cancer test. BioReference® offers a broad spectrum of diagnostic testing services for oncology, urology (4Kscore), and corrections nationwide, setting new standards with its industry-leading turnaround times. BioReference also provides comprehensive clinical and women’s health testing in New York and New Jersey. Our test offerings are backed by a team of board-certified medical professionals and driven by the latest healthcare guidelines and standards. We market our laboratory testing services directly to physicians, geneticists, hospitals, clinics, correctional and other health facilities. As described below, we entered into agreements with Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (“Labcorp”) in 2024 and 2025 for the sale of certain BioReference assets, including its oncology testing services.

 

We operate several established, revenue-generating pharmaceutical platforms internationally, with our principal operations located in Spain, Ireland, Chile, and Mexico. These key platforms contribute to positive cash flow and facilitate future market entry for our products currently in development. Beyond these platforms, our operations include a development and commercial supply pharmaceutical company, as well as a global supply chain operation.

 

We have a highly experienced management team, composed of individuals with solid industry experience and extensive development, regulatory and commercialization expertise, as well as relationships that provide access to commercial opportunities.

 

On March 11, 2025, the Company and BioReference entered into an agreement with Labcorp (the “Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Labcorp agreed to acquire BioReference's oncology and related clinical testing services assets (the “Oncology Transaction”). The Oncology Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025, with Labcorp paying up to $225 million in consideration, including $192.5 million in cash at closing and up to $32.5 million in cash in performance-based contingent consideration, as detailed in the Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement. These assets are within our diagnostics segment and encompass BioReference’s U.S. oncology testing services.  

 

As of March 31, 2025, the assets to be sold under the Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement met the held-for-sale accounting criteria. Accordingly, such assets have been classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025.

 

On September 16, 2024, we consummated the sale of certain assets of BioReference to Labcorp pursuant to an agreement entered into on March 27, 2024 (the “Labcorp Asset Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Labcorp Asset Purchase Agreement, Labcorp acquired select assets of BioReference. Upon closing, Labcorp paid to the Company aggregate consideration of $237.5 million in cash, which is subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Labcorp Asset Purchase Agreement. These assets were part of our diagnostics segment and include BioReference's laboratory testing businesses focused on clinical diagnostics, reproductive health, and women's health across the United States, excluding BioReference's New York and New Jersey operations. Pursuant to the Labcorp Asset Purchase Agreement, a total of approximately $23.7 million was withheld at closing and deposited by Labcorp into an escrow account to satisfy potential indemnity claims. The escrow will be released to the Company on the twelve-month anniversary of the closing date, subject to any outstanding or liquidated indemnity claims. The Company recorded the escrow within other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

NOTE 2 FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

 

Approximately 22.3% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar (USD). This compares to 21.5% for the same period in 2024. Our financial statements are reported in USD; therefore, fluctuations in exchange rates affect the translation of foreign-denominated revenue and expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, our most significant currency exchange rate exposures were to the Chilean Peso and Euro. Gross accumulated currency translation adjustments, recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, totaled $41.6 million and $52.7 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

 

We are subject to foreign currency transaction risk due to fluctuations in exchange rates between the time a transaction is initiated and settled. To mitigate this risk, we use foreign currency forward contracts. These contracts fix an exchange rate, allowing us to offset potential losses (or gains) caused by exchange rate changes at the settlement date. As of  March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held 60 and zero open foreign exchange forward contracts, respectively, related to inventory purchases on letters of credit.

 

 NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments or adjustments otherwise disclosed herein) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows have been made. The results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations and cash flows that may be reported for the remainder of 2025 or any other future periods. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

Principles of consolidation. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of OPKO Health, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

 

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash include short-term, interest-bearing instruments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. We also consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities at the date of purchase of 90 days or less as cash equivalents. These investments include money markets, bank deposits, certificates of deposit and U.S. treasury securities.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet to the sum of such amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

 

   

March 31, 2025

   

December 31, 2024

 

Cash and cash equivalents

  $ 428,831     $ 426,582  

Restricted cash, current

    7,168       5,354  

Restricted cash, long-term

    13,678       13,679  

Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

  $ 449,677     $ 445,615  

 

13

 

The Company classifies cash deposits related to letters of credit securing insurance and lease obligations as restricted cash, which is included in other assets, non-current, within the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Inventories. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. We consider such factors as the amount of inventory on hand, estimated time required to sell such inventories, remaining shelf-life, and current market conditions to determine whether inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories at our diagnostics segment consist primarily of purchased laboratory supplies, which are used in our testing laboratories.  Inventory obsolescence expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

 

Goodwill and intangible assets. Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired accounted for by the acquisition method of accounting. Refer to Note 5. Goodwill, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) and other intangible assets acquired in business combinations, licensing and other transactions was $1.2 billion and $1.3 billion at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, licensing and other transactions are generally recognized at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. At acquisition, we generally determine the fair value of intangible assets, including IPR&D, using the “income method.”

 

Subsequent to their acquisition, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are tested at least annually as of October 1 for impairment, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable.

 

Estimating the fair value of a reporting unit for goodwill impairment is highly sensitive to changes in projections and assumptions and changes in assumptions could potentially lead to impairment. We perform sensitivity analyses around our assumptions in order to assess the reasonableness of the assumptions and the results of our testing. Ultimately, potential changes in these assumptions may impact the estimated fair value of a reporting unit and result in an impairment if the fair value of such reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Goodwill was $476.7 million and $529.3 million, respectively, at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

 

Net intangible assets other than goodwill were $763.5 million and $811.6 million as of  March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, with IPR&D accounting for $195.0 million as of each date. The decrease from December 31, 2024 primarily reflects the reclassification of $30.5 million of intangible assets associated with the Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement, which were classified as assets held for sale as of March 31, 2025. Considering the high risk nature of research and development and the industry’s success rate of bringing developmental compounds to market, IPR&D impairment charges may occur in future periods. Estimating the fair value of IPR&D for potential impairment is highly sensitive to changes in projections and assumptions and changes in assumptions could potentially lead to impairment.

 

Upon regulatory approval, IPR&D assets are classified as finite-lived intangible assets. These assets are then amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. If a project is abandoned, the associated IPR&D costs are immediately expensed. We also regularly assess finite-lived intangible assets for impairment. This assessment involves comparing the carrying amount of an asset, which is its cost minus accumulated amortization, to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized to reflect the difference between the asset's carrying amount and its fair value. 

 

14

 

While we believe our estimates and assumptions used in impairment testing (including for goodwill and IPR&D) are reasonable and reflect those used by market participants, there is a potential risk of material impairment charges. Based on the current financial performance of our diagnostics segment and our Ireland reporting unit (which includes Eirgen and Rayaldee), we could be subject to such charges if their future performance deviates from our current estimates and assumptions. For reference, the goodwill of our diagnostics segment totaled $163.4 million and $219.7 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The decrease during the first quarter of 2025 reflects $56.3 million in assets held for sale, primarily related to the Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement. Separately, the goodwill of our Ireland reporting unit totaled $82.7 million and $79.4 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

 

We amortize intangible assets with definite lives on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 3 to 20 years. We use the straight-line method of amortization as there is no reliably determinable pattern in which the economic benefits of our intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used up. Amortization expense was $19.9 million and $21.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Fair value measurements. The carrying amounts of our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Investments that are considered equity securities as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are predominately carried at fair value.

 

In evaluating the fair value information, considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop the estimates. The use of different market assumptions and/or different valuation techniques may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value presented herein may not be indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange. Refer to Note 9.

 

Derivative financial instruments. We record derivative financial instruments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value and recognize the changes in the fair value in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations when they occur, the only exception being derivatives that qualify as hedges. For a derivative instrument to qualify as a hedge, we are required to meet strict hedge effectiveness and contemporaneous documentation requirements at the initiation of the hedge and assess the hedge effectiveness on an ongoing basis over the life of the hedge. At  March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our foreign currency forward contracts held to economically hedge inventory purchases did not meet the documentation requirements to be designated as hedges. Accordingly, we recognized all changes in the fair values of our derivatives instruments, net, in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Refer to Note 10.

 

In 2024, we determined the value of the embedded derivative liability within the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes (as defined in Note 7) and recorded it at fair value. Refer to Note 7. The changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative were recognized in the fair value changes of derivative instruments, net. Refer to Note 9. There was no impact from this embedded derivative during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

 

Property, plant and equipment. Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or fair value if acquired in a business combination. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets and includes amortization expense for assets capitalized under finance leases. The estimated useful lives by asset class are as follows: software - 3 years, machinery, medical and other equipment - 5-8 years, furniture and fixtures - 5-12 years, leasehold improvements - the lesser of their useful life or the lease term, buildings and improvements - 10-40 years, and automobiles - 3-5 years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Assets held under finance leases are included within Property, plant and equipment, net in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the expected term of their related leases. Depreciation expense was $3.6 million and $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

15

 

Impairment of long-lived assets. Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and assets held for sale, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, then an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

 

Income taxes. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset-and-liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and the respective tax bases and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. We periodically evaluate the realizability of our net deferred tax assets. Our tax accruals are analyzed periodically and adjustments are made as events occur to warrant such adjustment. Valuation allowances on certain U.S. deferred tax assets and non-U.S. deferred tax assets are established, because realization of these tax benefits through future taxable income does not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold.

 

We operate in various countries and tax jurisdictions globally.  For interim reporting purposes, we record income taxes based on the expected effective income tax rate, taking into consideration year to date and global forecasted tax results. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the valuation allowance against certain U.S. and non-U.S. deferred tax assets, the relative mix in earnings and losses in the U.S. versus foreign tax jurisdictions, and the impact of certain discrete tax events and operating results in tax jurisdictions which do not result in a tax benefit.

 

Included in Other long-term liabilities is an accrual of $9.9 million related to uncertain tax positions involving income recognition. In connection with an examination of foreign tax returns for the 2014 through 2020 tax years, a foreign taxing authority has issued an income tax assessment of approximately $246 million (including interest). We are appealing this assessment, as we believe, other than for uncertain tax positions for which we have reserved, the issues are without technical merit. We intend to exhaust all judicial remedies necessary to resolve the matter as necessary, which could be a lengthy process. There can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in our favor, and an adverse outcome, or any future tax examinations involving similar assertions, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Revenue recognition. We recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We apply the following five-step model in order to determine this amount: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

We apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, we review the contract to determine which performance obligations we must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. We recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. For a complete discussion of accounting for Revenues from services, Revenues from products and Revenue from transfer of intellectual property and other, refer to Note 13.

 

Concentration of credit risk and allowance for credit losses. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. Substantially all of our accounts receivable are with either companies in the healthcare industry or patients. However, credit risk is limited due to the number of our clients as well as their dispersion across many different geographic regions.

 

While we have receivables due from federal and state governmental agencies, such receivables are not a credit risk because federal and state governments fund the related healthcare programs. Payment is primarily dependent upon submitting appropriate documentation. On March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, receivable balances (net of explicit and implicit price concessions) from Medicare and Medicaid were 7.2% and 4.8%, respectively, of our consolidated Accounts receivable, net. The portion of our accounts receivable due from individual patients comprises the largest portion of credit risk. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, receivables due from patients represented approximately 2.3% and 1.7%, respectively, of our consolidated Accounts receivable, net.

 

16

 

We assess the collectability of accounts receivable balances by considering factors such as historical collection experience, customer credit worthiness, the age of accounts receivable balances, regulatory changes and current economic conditions and trends that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for credit losses was $1.5 million as of March 31, 2025, and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2024. The credit loss expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, was $212.0 thousand and $128.6 thousand, respectively.

 

Accounts receivable included $2.7 million of revenue earned under the BARDA Contract (as defined in Note 14) as of March 31, 2025, and $3.6 million under this contract as of December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 13, Government Contract Revenue for further information on government contracts and to Note 14, Strategic Alliances for further information on the BARDA Contract.

 

Stock Repurchase Program. On July 18, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of shares of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"). Under this program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time through various methods, including open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases, as well as pursuant to pre-set trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act, and otherwise in compliance with applicable laws. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be subject to general market conditions, the Company's capital management, investment opportunities, and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares, has no time limit, and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion. As previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had repurchased 25,825,785 shares at an average price per share of $1.56, for a total cost of approximately $40.2 million under this program through such date. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

 

Equity-based compensation. We measure the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. We record excess tax benefits realized from the exercise of stock options as cash flows from operations. Equity-based compensation expense was $2.6 million for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

 

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses include external and internal expenses. External expenses include clinical and nonclinical activities performed by contract research organizations, lab services, purchases of drug and diagnostic product materials and manufacturing development costs. Research and development employee-related expenses include salaries, benefits and equity-based compensation expense. Other internal research and development expenses are incurred to support overall research and development activities and include expenses related to general overhead and facilities. We expense these costs in the period in which they are incurred. We estimate our liabilities for research and development expenses in order to match the recognition of expenses to the period in which the actual services are received. As such, accrued liabilities related to third party research and development activities are recognized based upon our estimate of services received and degree of completion of the services in accordance with the specific third party contract.

 

Research and development expense includes costs for in-process research and development projects acquired in asset acquisitions which have not reached technological feasibility, and which have no alternative future use. For in-process research and development projects acquired in business combinations, the in-process research and development project is capitalized and evaluated for impairment until the development process has been completed. Once the development process has been completed the asset will be amortized over its remaining estimated useful life.

 

Segment reporting. Our chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) is Phillip Frost, M.D., our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Frost reviews our operating results and operating plans and makes resource allocation decisions on a Company-wide or aggregate basis. We manage our operations in two reportable segments, pharmaceutical and diagnostics. The pharmaceutical segment consists of our pharmaceutical operations in Chile, Mexico, Ireland, Israel and Spain, Rayaldee product sales and our pharmaceutical research and development. The diagnostics segment primarily consists of clinical laboratory operations through BioReference and our point-of-care operations. There are no significant inter-segment sales. We evaluate the performance of each segment based on operating profit or loss. There is no inter-segment allocation of interest expense or income taxes. Refer to Note 15.

 

Shipping and handling costs. We do not charge customers for shipping and handling costs. Shipping and handling costs are classified as Cost of revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

 

17

 

Foreign currency translation. The financial statements of certain of our foreign operations are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. The local currency assets and liabilities are generally translated at the rate of exchange to the U.S. dollar on the balance sheet date. The local currency revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange to the U.S. dollar during the reporting periods. Foreign currency transaction gains (losses) have been reflected as a component of Other income (expense), net within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and foreign currency translation gains (losses) have been included as a component of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss). For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded foreign currency transaction gains of $0.1 million and foreign currency transaction losses of $2.7 million, respectively.

 

Variable interest entities. The consolidation of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) is required when an enterprise has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest in a VIE will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Refer to Note 6.

 

Investments. We have made strategic investments in development stage and emerging companies. We record these investments as equity securities based on our percentage of ownership and whether we have significant influence over the operations of the investees. Refer to Note 6. For investments classified as equity securities, we record changes in their fair value as Other income (expense) in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations based on their closing price per share at the end of each reporting period, unless the equity security does not have a readily determinable fair value. Refer to Note 6.

 

Accounting standards yet to be adopted.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses is effective prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting period after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In  December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (ii) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (iii) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state, and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after  December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Recently adopted accounting standards.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt (Subtopic 470-20): Debt with Conversion and Other Options. (“ASU 2024-04”) clarifies the assessment of whether a transaction should be accounted for as an induced conversion or extinguishment of convertible debt when changes are made to conversion features as part of an offer to settle the instrument. ASU 2024-04 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for entities that have adopted ASU 2020-06. We adopted ASU 2024-04 prospectively effective January 1, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2024-04 did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In  November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances disclosures for significant segment expenses for all public entities required to report segment information in accordance with ASC 280. ASC 280 requires a public entity to report for each reportable segment a measure of segment profit or loss that its CODM uses to assess segment performance and to make decisions about resource allocations. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024. This guidance was applied prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) established an inclusive framework on base erosion and profit shifting and agreed on a two-pillar solution (“Pillar Two”) to global taxation, focusing on global profit allocation and a 15% global minimum effective tax rate. On December 15, 2022, the EU member states agreed to implement the OECD’s global minimum tax rate of 15%. The OECD issued Pillar Two model rules and continues to release guidance on these rules. The inclusive framework calls for tax law changes by participating countries to take effect in 2024 and 2025. Various countries have enacted or have announced plans to enact new tax laws to implement the global minimum tax. We considered the applicable tax law changes on Pillar Two implementation in the relevant countries, and there is no material impact to our tax results for the period. We anticipate further legislative activity and administrative guidance in 2025, and will continue to evaluate the impacts of enacted legislation and pending legislation to enact Pillar Two Model Rules in the non-US tax jurisdictions we operate in.

 

NOTE 4 EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing our net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding during the period. Shares of Common Stock outstanding under the share lending arrangement entered into in conjunction with the 2025 Notes (as defined in Note 7) have been excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share because the borrower of the shares is required under the share lending arrangement to refund any dividends paid on the shares lent. We terminated the share lending agreement on January 22, 2024.  Refer to Note 7. For diluted earnings per share, the dilutive impact of stock options and warrants is determined by applying the “treasury stock” method. The dilutive impact of the 2029 Convertible Notes, 2033 Senior Notes, the 2023 Convertible Notes and the 2025 Notes (each, as defined and discussed in Note 7) has been considered using the “if converted” method. For periods in which their effect would have been antidilutive, no effect is given in the dilutive computation to Common Stock issuable under outstanding options or warrants or the potentially dilutive shares issuable pursuant to the 2029 Convertible Notes, 2033 Senior Notes, the 2023 Convertible Notes and the 2025 Notes.

 

A total of 261,277,459 and 296,587,793 potential shares of Common Stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. A full presentation of diluted earnings per share has not been provided because the required adjustments to the numerator and denominator resulted in diluted earnings per share being equivalent to basic earnings per share.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, 56,250 options were exercised, and no restricted stock units vested, resulting in the issuance of 56,250 shares of Common Stock.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, no options were exercised, and no restricted stock units vested, resulting in the issuance of no shares of Common Stock.

Our intangible assets and goodwill relate principally to our completed acquisitions of OPKO Renal, OPKO Biologics, EirGen, BioReference and ModeX. We amortize intangible assets with definite lives on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives by asset class are as follows: technologies - 7-17 years, customer relationships - 5-20 years, product registrations - 7-10 years, covenants not to compete - 5 years, trade names - 5-10 years, other 9-13 years. We do not anticipate capitalizing the cost of product registration renewals, rather we expect to expense these costs, as incurred. Our goodwill is not tax deductible for income tax purposes in any jurisdiction in which we operate.

 

Changes in value of the intangible assets and goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were primarily due to foreign currency fluctuations between the Chilean Peso, and the Euro against the U.S. dollar.

Investments in equity securities

 

We hold investments in various equity securities, which are accounted for based on the Company's level of influence over the particular investee and whether the particular equity security has a readily determinable fair value. We have determined that our ownership in these entities, along with that of related parties, does not provide the Company with significant influence over their operations, except as noted below. Accordingly, we account for our investments in these entities as equity securities and records changes in their fair values in other income (expense) each reporting period. Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value, while those without are adjusted to fair value when there is an observable price change.

 

GeneDx Holdings

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company sold its remaining 620 thousand shares of GeneDx Holdings Corp. (formerly, Sema4 Holdings Corp., “GeneDx”) common stock at various prices for aggregate proceeds of $51.7 million, resulting in the Company holding no GeneDx shares as of March 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, our ownership in GeneDx was 2.2%.

 

Other Equity Securities

 

We hold equity securities in Entera Bio Ltd. (“Entera”) (8.1%) (see Note 14 for further information), ChromaDex Corporation (“ChromaDex”) (0.05%), Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Eloxx”) (1.0%), Xenetic Biosciences, Inc. (“Xenetic”) (2.9%), CAMP4 Therapeutics Corporation (“CAMP4”) (1.5%), and VBI Vaccines Inc. (0.0%). Our investment in HealthSnap, Inc. (3.8%) is accounted for under the measurement alternative for equity securities without readily determinable fair values.

 

Net gains and losses on our equity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

Investments in variable interest entities

 

We have determined that we hold variable interests in LeaderMed and Zebra. We made this determination as a result of our assessment that they do not have sufficient resources to carry out their principal activities without additional financial support.

 

In September 2021, we and LeaderMed, a pharmaceutical development company with operations based in Asia, formed a joint venture to develop, manufacture and commercialize two of OPKO’s clinical stage, long-acting drug products in Greater China and eight other Asian territories. Under the terms of the agreements, we granted the joint venture exclusive rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize (a) OPK88003, an oxyntomodulin analog being developed for the treatment of obesity and diabetes, and (b) Factor VIIa-CTP, a novel long acting coagulation factor being developed to treat hemophilia, in exchange for 4,703 shares 47% ownership interest in the joint venture. In addition, we received an upfront payment of $1.0 million and will be reimbursed for clinical trial material and technical support we provide the joint venture.

 

In order to determine the primary beneficiary of the joint venture, we evaluated our investment and our related parties’ investment, as well as our investment combined with the related parties’ investment to identify if we had the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the joint venture. Based on the capital structure, governing documents and overall business operations of the joint venture, we determined that, while a VIE, we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s economic performance and do not have an obligation to fund expected losses. We did determine that we can significantly influence control of the joint venture through our board representation and voting power. Therefore, we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the joint venture’s operations and account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method.

 

22

 

We own 1,260,000 shares of Zebra’s Series A-2 Preferred Stock and 900,000 shares of Zebra restricted common stock (ownership 29%) at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Zebra is a privately held biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of biosuperior antibody therapeutics and complex drugs. Dr. Richard Lerner, M.D., a former member of our Board of Directors, was a founder of Zebra. Dr. Frost serves as a member of Zebra’s Board of Directors.

 

In order to determine the primary beneficiary of Zebra, we evaluated our investment and our related parties’ investment, as well as our investment combined with the related parties’ investment to identify if we had the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Zebra. Based on the capital structure, governing documents and overall business operations of Zebra, we determined that, while a VIE, we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Zebra’s economic performance and have no obligation to fund expected losses. We determined, however, that we can significantly influence control of Zebra through our board representation and voting power. Therefore, we have the ability to exercise significant influence over Zebra’s operations and account for our investment in Zebra under the equity method.

 

Sales of investments

 

Gains (losses) included in earnings from sales of our investments are recorded in Other income (expense), net in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

 

Warrants and options

 

In addition to our equity method investments and equity securities, we hold options to purchase 47 thousand additional shares of BioCardia, Inc. ("BioCardia"), all of which were vested as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. We recorded the changes in the fair value of the options and warrants in fair value changes of derivative instruments, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. We also recorded the fair value of the options and warrants in Investments, net in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. See further discussion of the Company’s options and warrants in Note 9 and Note 10.

 

Equity method investments

 

The Company accounts for certain investments under the equity method when it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee's operating and financial policies. This influence may be indicated by factors such as board representation or voting power. Under the equity method, we recognized our proportionate share of the investee's net income or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

 

Our equity method investments, as described below, consist of investments in Pharmsynthez (ownership 6%), Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. (“COCP”) (2%), Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. (“NIMS”) (1%), BioCardia (0%), and LeaderMed Health Group Limited (“LeaderMed”) (47%).

 

The aggregate amount of assets, liabilities, and net losses of these equity method investees as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $53.0 million, $20.7 million, and $6.9 million, respectively. The aggregate amount of assets, liabilities, and net losses of our equity method investees as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $50.9 million, $18.3 million, and $31.1 million, respectively. We have determined that we or our related parties have the ability to exercise significant influence over our equity method investments through our board representation or voting power. Accordingly, we account for our investment in these entities under the equity method and record our proportionate share of their losses in Loss from investments in investees in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. The aggregate value of our equity method investments based on the quoted market prices of their respective shares of common stock and the number of shares held by us as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

2044 Note Purchase Agreement

 

On  July 17, 2024, the Company completed a private offering of $250 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the “2044 Notes”), pursuant to a note purchase agreement dated  July 17, 2024 (the “2044 Note Purchase Agreement), by and among the Company, certain purchasers from time to time party thereto, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries OPKO Biologics (“OBL”) and EirGen as guarantors (OBL and EirGen collectively, the “2044 Note Guarantors”), and HCR Injection SPV, LLC, as agent.

 

The 2044 Notes mature on  July 17, 2044 and bear interest at the 3-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) subject to a 4.0% per annum floor, plus 7.5% per annum. Interest is payable on the 2044 Notes on a quarterly basis determined by profit share payments received by EirGen pursuant to the profit share arrangement with Pfizer, Inc. (the “Royalty Payments”) set forth in the Restated Pfizer Agreement (as defined and described in Note 14). In the event that the aggregate amount of the Royalty Payments received by EirGen during the quarter preceding any quarterly interest payment date are less than the accrued and unpaid interest payable on such date, the excess interest payable on such date shall be paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal amount of the 2044 Notes.  The Company will be required to pay the noteholders a 3% exit fee in connection with any repayment in full of the 2044 Notes, whether at maturity or otherwise.  In addition, in the event that the Company repays the 2044 Notes in full prior to the maturity date, the Company will be required to pay the noteholders a make whole payment in an amount necessary such that the noteholders shall have received aggregate payments of principal, interest and fees in respect of the 2044 Notes equal to at least 150% of the initial principal amount of the 2044 Notes, in the event that such prepayment shall occur on or prior to  July 17, 2029, or 200% of the initial principal amount of the 2044 Notes, in the event that such prepayment shall occur following  July 17, 2029. If the 2044 Notes have not been fully repaid by the maturity date, the Company  may elect to either repay the unpaid balance of the principal amount in full, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and the 3% exit fee, or elect to transfer 80% of all future Royalty Payments to the agent and the noteholders in satisfaction of the outstanding 2044 Notes. The Company  may authorize the issuance of up to $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of additional 2044 Notes to the purchasers on the same terms and conditions of the initial 2044 Notes. The 2044 Notes are secured by the Royalty Payments, and the 2044 Note Guarantors have guaranteed the obligations under the 2044 Notes by granting a security interest in certain assets of the 2044 Note Guarantors. The 2044 Note Purchase Agreement contains customary terms and covenants, including negative covenants, such as limitations on indebtedness, liens, amendments to certain material contracts and disposition of assets.

2029 Convertible 144A Notes

 

In January 2024, we completed a private offering of $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible 144A Notes”) in accordance with the terms of a note purchase agreement (the “144A Note Purchase Agreement”) entered into by and between the Company and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “Initial Purchaser”).

 

Net proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes totaled approximately $222.0 million after deducting fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We used approximately $50.0 million of the net proceeds to repurchase shares of our Common Stock. These repurchases were from purchasers of the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes in privately negotiated transactions effected with or through the Initial Purchaser or its affiliate. The purchase price per share of the Common Stock in these transactions equaled the closing sale price of $0.9067 per share of Common Stock on  January 4, 2024.

 

Contemporaneously with the closing of the offering of the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes on  January 9, 2024, we issued and sold approximately $71.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Affiliate Notes” and, together with the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes, the “2029 Convertible Notes”) pursuant to the terms of a note purchase agreement entered into on  January 4, 2024 (the “Affiliate Note Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company and certain investors, Frost Gamma Investments Trust, a trust controlled by Dr. Phillip Frost, and Dr. Jane H. Hsiao (collectively, the “Affiliate Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Affiliate Note Purchase Agreement, we issued and sold the 2029 Convertible Affiliate Notes to the Affiliate Purchasers in exchange for the entirety of the $55.0 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 2023 Convertible Notes held by the Affiliate Purchasers, together with approximately $16.1 million of accrued but unpaid interest thereon.

 

On  January 9, 2024, we recorded $125.6 million value of the embedded derivative liability within the 2029 Convertible Notes as a debt discount. To determine the fair value of this derivative, we employed the Binomial Lattice model. Key inputs and assumptions for this valuation included our common stock price, the derivative's exercise price, risk-free interest rate, volatility, annual coupon rate, and remaining contractual term. We are amortizing the debt discount as non-cash interest expense over the term of the Notes.

 

From the date the Notes were issued through  March 31, 2024, we observed an increase in the market price of our Common Stock which resulted in a $26.25 million increase in the estimated fair value of our embedded derivatives recorded in Fair value changes of derivative instruments, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

As of March 31, 2025 the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes were convertible. Holders  may convert their 2029 Convertible Notes at their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding  September 15, 2028 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on  March 31, 2024 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our Common Stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “convertible note measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the convertible note measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our Common Stock and the applicable conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events specified in the indenture governing the 2029 Convertible Notes. On or after  September 15, 2028 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders  may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon conversion of a note, we will pay or deliver, as the case  may be, cash, shares of our Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of our Common Stock, at our election.

 

25

 

The conversion rate is initially equal to 869.5652 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $1.15 per share of Common Stock). The conversion rate for the 2029 Convertible Notes will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the notes, in certain circumstances we will increase the conversion rate of the 2029 Convertible Notes for a holder who elects to convert its notes in connection with such a corporate event.

 

We  may not redeem the notes prior to the maturity date, and no sinking fund is provided for the notes. If we undergo a fundamental change, holders  may require us to purchase the notes in whole or in part for cash at a fundamental change purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change purchase date. The 2029 Convertible Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes, and equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated. The notes are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries.

 

The indenture governing the notes provides for customary events of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others, the following: nonpayment of principal or interest; breach of covenants or other agreements in the indenture; defaults in failure to pay certain other indebtedness; judgment defaults; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing under the indenture, the trustee thereunder or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding  may declare 100% of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any on all then-outstanding notes to be immediately due and payable. In certain circumstances, we  may, for a period of time, elect to pay additional interest on the notes as the sole remedy to holders of the notes in the case of an event of default related to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the indenture.

2025 Convertible Notes

 

In February 2019, we issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) in an underwritten public offering. The 2025 Notes bore interest at a rate of 4.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, and matured on February 15, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased the remaining $170 thousand aggregate principal outstanding amount of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes.

 

2033 Senior Notes

 

In  January 2013, we issued an aggregate of $175.0 million of our 3.0% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes”) in a private placement. The 2033 Senior Notes bear interest at the rate of 3.0% per year, payable semiannually on  February 1 and  August 1 of each year and mature on  February 1, 2033, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. From 2013 to 2016, holders of the 2033 Senior Notes converted $143.2 million in aggregate principal amount into Common Stock, and, on  February 1, 2019, approximately $28.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2033 Senior Notes were tendered by holders pursuant to such holders’ option to require us to repurchase the 2033 Senior Notes. During the first quarter of 2023, we paid approximately $3.0 million to purchase 2033 Senior Notes in accordance with the indenture governing the 2033 Senior Notes, following which $50.6 thousand aggregate principal amount of 2033 Senior Notes remained outstanding.

NOTE 9 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

We record fair values at an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. We utilize a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

As of March 31, 2025, our financial assets measured at fair value included equity securities, forward foreign currency exchange contracts for inventory purchases (refer to Note 10), options related to our BioCardia investment and consulting agreement (recorded at fair value), warrants from COCP, and restricted cash collateralized by money market funds, the latter being measured at fair value as a Level 1 financial instrument.

 

Our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Under these forward contracts, for any rate above or below the fixed rate, we receive or pay the difference between the spot rate and the fixed rate for the given amount at the settlement date.

 

To qualify the derivative instrument as a hedge, we are required to meet strict hedge effectiveness and contemporaneous documentation requirements at the initiation of the hedge and assess the hedge effectiveness on an ongoing basis over the life of the hedge.

NOTE 11 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

We lease office space from Frost Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Frost Holdings”) in Miami, Florida, where our principal executive offices are located. Effective August 1, 2024, we entered into an amendment to our lease agreement with Frost Holdings to decrease the lease space from approximately 29,500 square feet to approximately 26,328 square feet of space. The amended lease provides for payments of approximately $91 thousand per month in the first year increasing annually to $103 thousand per month in the fifth year, plus applicable sales tax. The rent is inclusive of operating expenses, property taxes and parking.

 

In January 2024, in connection with the closing of the offering of the 2029 Convertible Notes, we issued and sold approximately $71.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Affiliate Notes to the Affiliate Purchasers, in exchange for $55.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Convertible Notes, together with approximately $16.1 million accrued but unpaid interest thereon, held by such Affiliate Purchasers. See Note 7 for additional information. Dr. Frost, an Affiliate Purchaser, subsequently purchased 2029 Convertible Notes on the open market in September 2024.

 

On October 12, 2023, the Company entered into an E-Commerce Distribution Agreement with NextPlat Corp (“NextPlat”), a global e-commerce provider, in which Dr. Frost owns more than a 20% interest. Under the terms of the agreement, NextPlat has agreed to launch an OPKO Health-branded online storefront on the Alibaba Group Holding Limited Tmall Global e-commerce platform in China, featuring an assortment of nutraceutical and veterinary products sold and distributed by OPKO Health Europe SLU, our wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company and NextPlat amended the agreement in October 2024 to extend the term of the agreement to 2026, and permit NextPlat to launch an online storefront on additional e-commerce platforms throughout Asia.

 

On May 4, 2023, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) with Ruen-Hui Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., a Taiwanese entity (“Ruen-Hui”) in which Dr. Hsiao owns more than a 10% interest. Ruen-Hui assumed the Company's obligations under an exclusive license agreement with Academia Sinica in exchange for an upfront payment of $150,000, a number of potential milestone payments up to $1 million, commercial milestones ranging from low to double digit millions, and royalty payments. Ruen Hui is also responsible for any outstanding payment obligations under such license agreement, including patent maintenance costs, and any payments due to Academia Sinica.

 

The Company owns approximately 6% of Pharmsynthez and Pharmsynthez is the largest and controlling shareholder of Xenetic, in which the Company has a 3% ownership interest.

 

We hold investments in Zebra (ownership 29%), ChromaDex (0.05%), COCP (2%), NIMS (1%), Eloxx (1%), and LeaderMed (47%). These investments were considered related party transactions as a result of our executive management’s ownership interests and/or board representation in these entities. We previously held an investment in GeneDx (Nasdaq: WGS), which represented a 2.2% ownership interest as of December 31, 2024, obtained as a result of our sale of GeneDx, Inc. and subsequent participation in an underwritten offering by GeneDx. Richard Pfenniger who sits on our Board also sits on the GeneDx Board. We sold our remaining investment in GeneDx during the first quarter of 2025.  

Dr. Elias Zerhouni, our Vice Chairman and President, sits on the board of directors of Danaher Corporation (“Danaher”). Our subsidiary, BioReference, routinely procures products and services from several subsidiaries of Danaher, including Beckman Coulter, Integrated DNA Technologies Inc., and Leica Microsystems Inc., to which BioReference has paid $0.6 million, $1.0 million, and $0.1 million, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

 

We reimburse Dr. Frost for Company-related use by Dr. Frost and our other executives of an airplane owned by a company that is beneficially owned by Dr. Frost. We reimburse Dr. Frost for out-of-pocket operating costs for the use of the airplane by Dr. Frost or Company executives for Company-related business. We do not reimburse Dr. Frost for personal use of the airplane by Dr. Frost or any other executive. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no amounts were reimbursed or accrued for Company-related travel by Dr. Frost and other OPKO executives.

NOTE 12 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In   February 2023, the Office of the Attorney General for the State of Texas (“TX OAG”) informed BioReference that it believes that, from 2005 to 2023, BioReference   may have violated the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act with respect to claims it presented to Texas Medicaid for reimbursement. BioReference and the TX OAG entered into a settlement agreement in  February 2025 for $4.2 million, under which BioReference did not admit any wrongdoing.

 

On   December 29, 2022, the Israel Tax Authority (the “ITA”) issued an assessment against our subsidiary, OPKO Biologics in the amount of approximately $246 million (including interest) related to uncertain tax positions involving income recognition in connection with an examination of foreign tax returns for the 2014 through 2020 tax years. We recognize that local tax law is inherently complex and the local taxing authorities   may not agree with certain tax positions taken. We have appealed this assessment, as we believe, other than for uncertain tax positions for which we have reserved, the issues are without technical merit. The matter is currently before the courts. The trial has concluded; however, there are certain other procedural matters under Israeli law that must occur before a judgment is rendered. We intend to continue to exhaust all judicial remedies necessary to resolve the matter, as necessary, which has been a lengthy process. There can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in our favor, and an adverse outcome, or any future tax examinations involving similar assertions, could have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

The Company and BioReference entered into (i) a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”), effective July 14, 2022, with the United States of America, acting through the United States Department of Justice and on behalf of the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services (“OIG-HHS”), and the Defense Health Agency, acting on behalf of the TRICARE Program (collectively, the “United States”), the Commonwealth of Massachusetts , the State of Connecticut, and the relator identified therein (“Relator”), and (ii) a Corporate Integrity Agreement, effective July 14, 2022 (the “CIA”), with the OIG-HHS, to resolve the investigation and related civil action concerning alleged fee-for-service claims for payment to the Medicare Program, the Medicaid Program, and the TRICARE Program (collectively, the “Federal Health Care Programs”).

 

Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company and BioReference admitted only to having made payments to certain physicians and physicians’ groups for office space rentals for amounts that exceeded fair market value, and that it did not report or return any such overpayments to the Federal Health Care Programs (the “Covered Conduct”). The Covered Conduct had commenced prior to the Company’s acquisition of BioReference in 2015. With the exception of the Covered Conduct, the Company and BioReference expressly deny the allegations of the Relator as set forth in her civil action. The Company has paid a total of $10,000,000 plus accrued interest from September 24, 2021 at a rate of 1.5% per annum (the “Settlement Amount”). The Settlement Amount consists of $9,853,958 payable to the United States, $141,041 payable to the Commonwealth and $5,001 payable to Connecticut, in each case plus interest and was paid on July 18, 2022. Conditioned upon payment of the Settlement Amount, the United States, Massachusetts and Connecticut agreed to release the Company and BioReference from any civil or administrative monetarily liability arising from the Covered Conduct. Upon payment of the Settlement Amount and the amount due under a separate agreement with the Relator, the Relator released the Company and BioReference from any and all claims and potential claims. Further, in consideration of the obligations of the Company and BioReference in the Settlement Agreement and the CIA, the OIG-HHS released and refrained from instituting any administrative action seeking to exclude the Company or BioReference from participating in Medicare, Medicaid or other Federal health care programs as a result of the Covered Conduct.

 

Under the CIA, which has a term of 5 years, BioReference is required to, among other things: (i) maintain a Compliance Officer, a Compliance Committee, board review and oversight of certain federal healthcare compliance matters, compliance programs, and disclosure programs; (ii) provide management certifications and compliance training and education; (iii) establish written compliance policies and procedures to meet federal health care program requirements; (iv) create procedures designed to ensure compliance with the Anti-Kickback Statute and/or Stark Law; (v) engage an independent review organization to conduct a thorough review of BioReference’ s systems, policies, processes and procedures related to certain arrangements; (vi) implement a risk assessment and internal review process; (vii) establish a disclosure program for whistleblowers; and (viii) report or disclose certain events and physician payments. The Company’s or BioReference’s failure to comply with its obligations under the CIA could result in monetary penalties and the exclusion from participation in Federal Health Care Programs. The CIA does not apply to any of the Company’s subsidiaries other than BioReference, and its scope is generally limited to “focus arrangements”, which are those “arrangements” (as defined in the CIA) (i) between BioReference and any actual source or recipient of health care business or referrals and involves, directly or indirectly, the offer, payment, or provision of anything of value, or (ii) is between BioReference and any physician (or a physician’s immediate family member). Most of these measures have already been implemented at BioReference. Following its acquisition of BioReference, the Company and BioReference implemented robust compliance measures that substantially align with those actions required under the CIA.

From time to time, we may receive inquiries, document requests, CIDs or subpoenas from the Department of Justice, OCR, CMS, various payors and fiscal intermediaries, and other state and federal regulators regarding investigations, audits and reviews. In addition to the matters discussed in this note, we are currently responding to CIDs, subpoenas, payor audits, and document requests for various matters relating to our laboratory operations. Some pending or threatened proceedings against us may involve potentially substantial amounts as well as the possibility of civil, criminal, or administrative fines, penalties, or other sanctions, which could be material. Settlements of suits involving the types of issues that we routinely confront may require monetary payments as well as corporate integrity agreements. Additionally, qui tam or “whistleblower” actions initiated under the civil False Claims Act may be pending but placed under seal by the court to comply with the False Claims Act’s requirements for filing such suits. Also, from time to time, we may detect issues of non-compliance with federal healthcare laws pertaining to claims submission and reimbursement practices and/or financial relationships with physicians, among other things. We may avail ourselves of various mechanisms to address these issues, including participation in voluntary disclosure protocols. Participating in voluntary disclosure protocols can have the potential for significant settlement obligations or even enforcement action. The Company generally has cooperated, and intends to continue to cooperate, with appropriate regulatory authorities as and when investigations, audits and inquiries arise.

 

We are a party to other litigation in the ordinary course of business. While we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of legal matters, we accrue a liability for legal contingencies when we believe that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and that we can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss. It’s reasonably possible the ultimate liability could exceed amounts currently estimated and we review established accruals and adjust them to reflect ongoing negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other relevant information. To the extent new information is obtained and our views on the probable outcomes of claims, suits, assessments, investigations or legal proceedings change, changes in our accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period in which such determination is made. Because of the high degree of judgment involved in establishing loss estimates, the ultimate outcome of such matters will differ from our estimates and such differences may be material to our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

 

At March 31, 2025, we were committed to make future purchases for inventory and other items in 2025 that occur in the ordinary course of business under various purchase arrangements with fixed purchase provisions aggregating approximately $45.9 million

 

 

NOTE 13 REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

We generate revenues from services, products and intellectual property as follows:

 

Revenue from services

 

Revenue for laboratory services is recognized at the time test results are reported, which approximates when services are provided and the performance obligations are satisfied. Services are provided to patients covered by various third-party payor programs including various managed care organizations, as well as the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Billings for services are included in revenue net of allowances for contractual discounts, allowances for differences between the amounts billed and estimated program payment amounts, and implicit price concessions provided to uninsured patients which are all elements of variable consideration.

 

32

 

The following are descriptions of our payors for laboratory services:

 

Healthcare Insurers. Reimbursements from healthcare insurers are based on negotiated fee-for-service schedules. Revenues consist of amounts billed, net of contractual allowances for differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration we expect to receive from such payors, which considers historical denial and collection experience and the terms of our contractual arrangements. Adjustments to the allowances, based on actual receipts from the third-party payors, are recorded upon settlement.

 

Government Payors. Reimbursements from government payors are based on fee-for-service schedules set by governmental authorities, including traditional Medicare and Medicaid. Revenues consist of amounts billed, net of contractual allowances for differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration we expect to receive from such payors, which considers historical denial and collection experience and the terms of our contractual arrangements. Adjustments to the allowances, based on actual receipts from the government payors, are recorded upon settlement.

 

Client Payors. Client payors include physicians, hospitals, employers, and other institutions for which services are performed on a wholesale basis, and are billed and recognized as revenue based on negotiated fee schedules.

 

Patients. Uninsured patients are billed based on established patient fee schedules or fees negotiated with physicians on behalf of their patients. Insured patients (including amounts for coinsurance and deductible responsibilities) are billed based on fees negotiated with healthcare insurers. Collection of billings from patients is subject to credit risk and ability of the patients to pay. Revenues consist of amounts billed net of discounts provided to uninsured patients in accordance with our policies and implicit price concessions. Implicit price concessions represent differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration that we expect to receive from patients, which considers historical collection experience and other factors including current market conditions. Adjustments to the estimated allowances, based on actual receipts from the patients, are recorded upon settlement.

 

The complexities and ambiguities of billing, reimbursement regulations and claims processing, as well as considerations unique to Medicare and Medicaid programs, require us to estimate the potential for retroactive adjustments as an element of variable consideration in the recognition of revenue for the period during which the related services are rendered. Actual amounts are adjusted in the period those adjustments become known.  For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded $1.5 million of negative revenue adjustments due to changes in estimated implicit price concessions for services provided in prior periods, primarily due to shifts in the composition of our client mix. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded $0.5 million of positive revenue adjustments due to changes in estimates of implicit price concessions for performance obligations satisfied in prior periods mainly due to the composition of client pay mix.

 

Third-party payors, including government programs, may decide to deny payment or recoup payments for testing they contend were improperly billed or not medically necessary, against their coverage determinations, or for which they believe they have otherwise overpaid (including as a result of their own error), and we may be required to refund payments already received. Our revenues may be subject to retroactive adjustment as a result of these factors among others, including without limitation, differing interpretations of billing and coding guidance and changes by government agencies and payors in interpretations, requirements, and “conditions of participation” in various programs. We have processed requests for recoupment from third-party payors in the ordinary course of our business, and it is likely that we will continue to do so in the future. If a third-party payor denies payment for testing or recoups money from us in a later period, reimbursement for our testing could decline.

 

As an integral part of our billing compliance program, we periodically assess our billing and coding practices, respond to payor audits on a routine basis, and investigate reported failures or suspected failures to comply with federal and state healthcare reimbursement requirements, as well as overpayment claims which may arise from time to time without fault on the part of the Company. We may have an obligation to reimburse Medicare, Medicaid, and third-party payors for overpayments regardless of fault. We have periodically identified and reported overpayments, reimbursed payors for overpayments and taken appropriate corrective action.

 

33

 

Settlements with third-party payors for retroactive adjustments due to audits, reviews or investigations are also considered variable consideration and are included in the determination of the estimated transaction price for providing services. These settlements are estimated based on the terms of the payment agreement with the payor, correspondence from the payor and our historical settlement activity, including an assessment of the probability a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved. Estimated settlements are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known (that is, new information becomes available), or as years are settled or are no longer subject to such audits, reviews, and investigations. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had liabilities of approximately $2.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively, within Accrued expenses and Other long-term liabilities related to reimbursements for payor overpayments.

 

The composition of revenue from services by payor for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

Revenue from products

 

We recognize revenue from product sales when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recorded reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Our estimates for sales returns and allowances are based upon the historical patterns of product returns and allowances taken, matched against the sales from which they originated, and our evaluation of specific factors that may increase or decrease the risk of product returns. Product revenues are recorded net of estimated rebates, chargebacks, discounts, co-pay assistance and other deductions (collectively, “Sales Deductions”) as well as estimated product returns which are all elements of variable consideration. Allowances are recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time product revenues are recognized. The actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from our estimates. If actual results in the future vary from our estimates, we will adjust these estimates, which would affect revenue from products in the period such variances become known.

 

Rayaldee is distributed in the U.S. principally through the retail pharmacy channel, which initiates with the largest wholesalers in the U.S. (collectively, “Rayaldee Customers”). In addition to distribution agreements with Rayaldee Customers, we have entered into arrangements with many healthcare providers and payors that provide for government-mandated or privately-negotiated rebates, chargebacks and discounts with respect to the purchase of Rayaldee

 

We recognize revenue for shipments of Rayaldee at the time of delivery to customers after estimating Sales Deductions and product returns as elements of variable consideration utilizing historical information and market research projections. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized $6.3 million and $6.9 million, respectively, in net product revenue from sales of Rayaldee.

Taxes collected from customers related to revenues from services and revenues from products are excluded from revenues.

 

Revenue from intellectual property and other

 

We recognize revenues from the transfer of intellectual property generated through license, development, collaboration and/or commercialization agreements. The terms of these agreements typically include payment to us for one or more of the following: non-refundable, up-front license fees; development and commercialization milestone payments; funding of research and/or development activities; and royalties on sales of licensed products. Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to the customer.

 

For research, development and/or commercialization agreements that result in revenues, we identify all material performance obligations, which may include a license to intellectual property and know-how, and research and development activities. In order to determine the transaction price, in addition to any upfront payment, we estimate the amount of variable consideration at the outset of the contract either utilizing the expected value or most likely amount method, depending on the facts and circumstances relative to the contract. We constrain (reduce) our estimates of variable consideration such that it is probable that a significant reversal of previously recognized revenue will not occur throughout the life of the contract. When determining if variable consideration should be constrained, we consider whether there are factors outside of our control that could result in a significant reversal of revenue. In making these assessments, we consider the likelihood and magnitude of a potential reversal of revenue. These estimates are re-assessed each reporting period as required.

 

35

 

Upfront License Fees: If a license to our intellectual property is determined to be functional intellectual property distinct from the other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, we recognize revenue from nonrefundable, upfront license fees based on the relative value prescribed to the license compared to the total value of the arrangement. The revenue is recognized when the license is transferred to the customer and the customer is able to use and benefit from the license. For licenses that are not distinct from other obligations identified in the arrangement, we utilize judgment to assess the nature of the combined performance obligation to determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time. If the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time, we apply an appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from nonrefundable, upfront license fees. We evaluate the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjust the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.

 

Research and Development Activities: If we are entitled to reimbursement from our customers for specified research and development expenses, we account for them as separate performance obligations if distinct. We also determine whether the research and development funding would result in revenues or an offset to research and development expenses in accordance with provisions of gross or net revenue presentation. The corresponding revenues or offset to research and development expenses are recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied.

 

BARDA Contract: Revenue from the BARDA Contract is generated under terms that are cost plus fee. We recognize revenue using the incurred costs output method to measure progress. Revenue will only be recognized when research and development services are performed to the extent of actual costs incurred.

 

Sales-based Milestone and Royalty Payments: Our customers may be required to pay us sales-based milestone payments or royalties on future sales of commercial products. We recognize revenues related to sales-based milestone and royalty payments upon the later to occur of (i) achievement of the customer’s underlying sales or (ii) satisfaction of any performance obligation(s) related to these sales, in each case assuming the license to our intellectual property is deemed to be the predominant item to which the sales-based milestones and/or royalties relate.

 

Other Potential Products and Services: Arrangements may include an option for license rights, future supply of drug substance or drug product for either clinical development or commercial supply at the licensee’s election. We assess if these options provide a material right to the licensee and if so, they are accounted for as separate performance obligations at the inception of the contract and revenue is recognized only if the option is exercised and products or services are subsequently delivered or when the rights expire. If the promise is based on market terms and not considered a material right, the option is accounted for if and when exercised. If we are entitled to additional payments when the licensee exercises these options, any additional payments are generally recorded in license or other revenues when the licensee obtains control of the goods, which is upon delivery.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue from the transfer of intellectual property and other was $12.3 million compared to $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a net increase of $3.5 million. This increase was primarily attributable to $7.0 million recognized under the BARDA Contract (as defined and described in Note 14) compared to $2.2 million in the 2024 period. This positive contribution was partially offset by a decrease in gross profit share and royalty payments for NGENLA (Somatrogon) and Pfizer's Genotropin® (Somatropin), which totaled $4.5 million compared with $5.6 million for the same period in 2024.

NOTE 14 STRATEGIC ALLIANCES

 

Entera Bio Ltd

 

On March 16, 2025, the Company and Entera Bio Ltd. (“Entera”) entered into a collaboration and license agreement to develop an oral dual agonist GLP-1/glucagon peptide as a potential treatment for obesity, metabolic, and fibrotic disorders, combining OPKO’s proprietary long-acting oxyntomodulin analog (OPK-88006) and Entera’s proprietary N-Tab™ technology.

 

Under the terms of the agreement, the Company and Entera hold 60% and 40% pro-rata ownership interests in the development program, respectively, and are responsible for 60% and 40% of the program's development costs, respectively. In connection with the agreement, the Company purchased 3,685,226 ordinary shares of Entera at a price of $2.17 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $8.0 million.

 

Entera has agreed to utilize the proceeds from this share purchase to fund its 40% share of the program's development costs through the completion of Phase 1. Following Phase 1, Entera has the option to continue funding its 40% share to maintain its pro-rata ownership. Should Entera elect not to continue funding, its ownership interest will be reduced to 15%, with the Company holding the remaining 85% interest and becoming responsible for all ongoing development funding and activities.

 

Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority

 

On  September 28, 2023, ModeX was awarded a contract (as amended as decribed below, the “BARDA Contract”) by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA"), part of the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This contract aims to advance a platform and product candidates addressing various public health threats, specifically in viral infectious diseases. The funding enables the research, development, and clinical evaluation of multispecific antibodies based on ModeX's proprietary MSTAR technology. MSTAR is a flexible, plug-and-play platform capable of incorporating multiple independent antibody binding sites into a single molecule, expanding its therapeutic potential and enabling rapid responses to emerging infections, including viral variants like COVID-19, influenza, and other pathogens.

 

In  September 2024, ModeX entered into two amendments (the “BARDA Amendments”) to modify the scope and funding of the BARDA Contract. The BARDA Amendments structured the funding thereunder as cost-plus-fixed-fee, which includes a $26.9 million supplement to further advance the development of COVID-19 multispecific antibodies. This increased funding supports the ongoing development, manufacturing, and execution of a Phase 1 clinical trial for a next-generation MSTAR multispecific antibody with broad neutralizing activity against known SARS-CoV-2 variants. The BARDA Amendments also provided for BARDA's exercise of the option for the development of a multispecific protein antibody for influenza or another pathogen, with $24.1 million allocated to cover the expanded work under this exercised option. These modifications increased the total value of the BARDA Contract from $59.0 million to $110.0 million, with the potential value if BARDA exercises all options thereunder to expand ModeX's services, increasing from $168.6 million to $205 million.

 

As part of the research program, gene-based delivery methods for the multispecific antibodies will be developed using mRNA or DNA vectors to leverage the body's natural protein production processes. BARDA will make periodic progress assessments, and the continuation of the BARDA Contract depends on ModeX’s performance, the timeliness and quality of deliverables, and other factors. The BARDA Contract contains customary government contract provisions, including BARDA's right to terminate the contract in its discretion.

 

37

 

The Company evaluated the BARDA Contract under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), and determined that the U.S. government meets the definition of a customer. The scope of the BARDA Contract includes preclinical, clinical, and manufacturing activities, as well as regulatory, quality assurance, management, and administrative activities. The research and development effort will progress in stages covering base and option segments, with ModeX completing specific tasks in each segment.

 

The Company identified three potential material promises under the BARDA Contract: (i) development of a tetravalent trispecific antibody for COVID-19; (ii) development of a multispecific protein antibody for influenza or another pathogen; and (iii) nucleic acid delivery of a multispecific antibody for influenza or another pathogen. The Company determined the promise to develop a tetravalent trispecific antibody for COVID-19 is a separate performance obligation, as it is distinct within the contract and provides standalone value. Similarly, the exercised option to develop a multispecific protein antibody for influenza or another pathogen is also a separate performance obligation. However, the Company determined that the nucleic acid delivery option does not offer incremental discounts beyond those typically provided for such goods and services, and therefore does not represent a material right. As such, the options in (iii) were not considered performance obligations at the outset of the BARDA Contract.

 

The Company concluded that research and development services performed under the BARDA Contract would be recognized as revenue when research and development services are performed to the extent of actual costs incurred including a fixed fee and will be reimbursed by BARDA. Costs incurred represent work performed, which corresponds with, and thereby best depicts, the transfer of control of the research and development to BARDA. Types of contract costs include labor, material, and third-party services. As such, the related BARDA revenue is recognized as revenue from transfer of intellectual property and other within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded $7.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively, in revenue under the BARDA Contract. As of March 31, 2025, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, excluding unexercised contract options, was $78.0 million. We expect to recognize this amount as revenue through February 2028.

 

Merck

 

On  March 8, 2023, ModeX, the Company (with respect to certain sections), and Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC (“Merck”) entered into a License and Research Collaboration Agreement (the “Merck Agreement”) pursuant to which ModeX granted to Merck a license to certain patent rights and know-how in connection with the development of ModeX’s preclinical nanoparticle vaccine candidate targeting the Epstein-Barr Virus.

 

Under the terms of the Merck Agreement, ModeX granted to Merck an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing license to certain intellectual property to develop, manufacture, use and commercialize (i) a multivalent or monovalent vaccine assembled using our platform for Epstein-Barr Virus (“Vaccine”), and (ii) any pharmaceutical or biological preparation in final form containing a Vaccine for sale or for administration to human patients in a clinical trial for all uses (“Product”).

 

ModeX received an initial payment of $50.0 million and is eligible to receive up to an additional $860.0 million upon the achievement of certain commercial and development milestones. On  January 7, 2025, ModeX announced the dosing of the first participant in a Phase 1 study for an EBV vaccine candidate being developed in collaboration with Merck. This achievement triggered a $12.5 million milestone payment from Merck. ModeX is also eligible to receive tiered royalty payments ranging from high single digits to low double digits upon the achievement of certain sales targets of the Product.

 

Certain of the rights subject to the license provided by us under the Merck Agreement were obtained by us from Sanofi, a French corporation ("Sanofi"), pursuant to that certain License Agreement entered into as of  July 1, 2021 (“Sanofi In-License Agreement”) between us and Sanofi, and a portion of the upfront payment and royalties received by us under the Merck Agreement  may be payable to Sanofi under the terms of the Sanofi In-License Agreement.

 

38

 

As part of their strategic collaboration, ModeX and Merck have put in place a research plan to manage research and other development activities related to the development of a Vaccine or Product including a joint steering committee to facilitate the research program. As part of the research plan, they will use a third-party contract development and manufacturing organization to carry out such activities unless otherwise agreed. Development costs incurred by ModeX in furtherance of these development activities will be reimbursed by Merck. To date, we have spent $26.1 million of development costs related to the Epstein -Barr Virus, for which Merck has provided, or will provide, reimbursement.

 

The Merck Agreement will remain in effect until one or more Products receive marketing authorization, and, thereafter, until the expiration of all royalty obligations unless earlier terminated as permitted under the Merck Agreement. In addition to termination rights for material breach and bankruptcy, Merck is permitted to terminate the Merck Agreement in its entirety without cause after a specified notice period. If Merck terminates the Merck Agreement for convenience or by us for Merck’s uncured material breach, we  may elect to receive a reversion license such that we can continue its work with Vaccines and Products which have not been terminated due to a material safety issue.

 

LeaderMed

 

On September 14, 2021, we and LeaderMed announced the formation of a joint venture to develop, manufacture and commercialize two of OPKO’s clinical stage, long-acting drug products in Greater China and eight other Asian territories.

 

Under the terms of the agreements, we have granted the joint venture exclusive rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize (a) OPK88003, an oxyntomodulin analog being developed for the treatment of obesity and diabetes, and (b) Factor VIIa-CTP, a novel long-acting coagulation factor being developed to treat hemophilia, in exchange for a 47% ownership interest in the joint venture. In addition, during 2021 we received an upfront payment of $1 million and will be reimbursed for clinical trial material and technical support we provide the joint venture.

 

LeaderMed is responsible for funding the joint venture’s operations, development and commercialization efforts and, together with its syndicate partners, initially invested $11 million in exchange for a 53% ownership interest. We retain full rights to oxyntomodulin and Factor VIIa-CTP in all other geographies.

 

NICOYA Macau Limited

 

On  June 18, 2021, EirGen, our wholly owned subsidiary, and NICOYA Macau Limited (“Nicoya”), a Macau corporation and an affiliate of NICOYA Therapeutics, entered into a Development and License Agreement (the “Nicoya Agreement”) granting Nicoya the exclusive rights for the development and commercialization of extended release calcifediol (the “Nicoya Product”) in Greater China, which includes mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan (collectively, the “Nicoya Territory”). Extended release calcifediol is marketed in the U.S. by OPKO under the tradename Rayaldee. The license grant to Nicoya covers the therapeutic and preventative use of the Nicoya Product for SHPT in non-dialysis and hemodialysis chronic kidney disease patients (the “Nicoya Field”).

 

EirGen received an initial upfront payment of $5 million and is eligible to receive an aggregate additional amount of $5 million tied to the first anniversary of the effective date of the Nicoya Agreement, as amended, of which EirGen has received $2.5 million plus accrued interest for the delayed payment. Furthermore, EirGen received the additional $2.5 million upon Nicoya’s submission of an investigational new drug (IND) application to the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of China in March 2023. EirGen is also eligible to receive up to an additional aggregate amount of $115 million upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory and sales-based milestones by Nicoya for the Nicoya Product in the Nicoya Territory. EirGen is eligible to receive tiered, double digit royalty payments at rates in the low double digits on net product sales within the Nicoya Territory and in the Nicoya Field.

 

Nicoya is, at its sole cost and expense, responsible for performing all development activities necessary to obtain all regulatory approvals for the Nicoya Product in the Nicoya Territory and will be responsible for all commercial activities pertaining to the Nicoya Product in the Nicoya Territory.

 

39

 

Unless earlier terminated, the Nicoya Agreement will remain in effect until such time as all royalty payment terms and extended payment terms have expired, and Nicoya shall have no further payment obligations to EirGen under the terms of the Nicoya Agreement. Nicoya’s royalty obligations expire on the later of (i) expiration of the last to expire valid patent claim covering the Nicoya Product sold in the Nicoya Territory, (ii) expiration of all regulatory and data exclusivity applicable to the Nicoya Product in the Nicoya Territory, and (iii) on a product-by-product basis, ten (10) years after such Nicoya Product’s first commercial sale in the Nicoya Territory. In addition to termination rights for material breach and bankruptcy, Nicoya is permitted to terminate the Nicoya Agreement after a specified notice period.

 

VFMCRP

 

In  May 2016, EirGen and Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma Ltd. (“VFMCRP”) entered into a Development and License Agreement (the “VFMCRP Agreement”) for the development and commercialization of Rayaldee (the “Product”) worldwide, except for (i) the United States and Canada, (ii) any country in Central America or South America (including Mexico), (iii) Russia, (iv) China, (v) South Korea, (vi) Ukraine, (vii) Belorussia, (viii) Azerbaijan, (ix) Kazakhstan, (x) Taiwan (xi) the Middle East, and (xii) all countries of Africa (the “VFMCRP Territory”), as amended. The license to VFMCRP potentially covers all therapeutic and prophylactic uses of the Product in human patients (the “VFMCRP Field”), provided that initially the license is for the use of the Product for the treatment or prevention of SHPT related to patients with CKD and vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency (the “VFMCRP Initial Indication”).

 

Effective May 23, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the VFMCRP Agreement pursuant to which the parties thereto agreed to include Japan as part of the VFMCRP Territory.

 

Effective  May 5, 2020, we entered into an amendment to the VFMCRP Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to exclude Mexico, South Korea, the Middle East and all of the countries of Africa from the VFMCRP Territory. In addition, the parties agreed to certain amendments to the milestone structure and to reduce minimum royalties payable. The Company has received a $3 million payment triggered by the first marketing approval of Rayaldee in Europe, $7.0 million payment triggered by the Germany price approval by the local sick fund association, and is eligible to receive up to an additional $15 million in regulatory milestones and $200 million in milestone payments tied to launch, pricing and sales of Rayaldee, and tiered, double-digit royalties.

 

We plan to share responsibility with VFMCRP for the conduct of trials specified within an agreed-upon development plan, with each company leading certain activities within the plan. EirGen will lead the manufacturing activities within and outside the VFMCRP Territory and the commercialization activities outside the VFMCRP Territory and outside the VFMCRP Field in the VFMCRP Territory and VFMCRP will lead the commercialization activities in the VFMCRP Territory and the VFMCRP Field. For the initial development plan, the companies have agreed to certain cost sharing arrangements. VFMCRP will be responsible for all other development costs that VFMCRP considers necessary to develop the Product for the use of the Product for the VFMCRP Initial Indication in the VFMCRP Territory in the VFMCRP Field except as otherwise provided in the VFMCRP Agreement. The first of the clinical studies provided for in the development activities commenced in September 2018.

 

In connection with the VFMCRP Agreement, the parties entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which EirGen granted to VFMCRP an exclusive option (the “Option”) to acquire an exclusive license under certain EirGen patents and technology to use, import, offer for sale, sell, distribute and commercialize the Product in the U.S. solely for the treatment of SHPT in dialysis patients with CKD and vitamin D insufficiency (the “Dialysis Indication”). Upon exercise of the Option, VFMCRP has agreed to reimburse EirGen for all of the development costs incurred by EirGen with respect to the Product for the Dialysis Indication in the U.S. VFMCRP would also pay EirGen up to an additional aggregate amount of $555 million of sales-based milestones upon the achievement of certain milestones and would be obligated to pay royalties at percentage rates that range from the mid-teens to the mid-twenties on sales of the Product in the U.S. for the Dialysis Indication. To date, VFMCRP has not exercised the Option.

 

40

 

Payments received for regulatory milestones and sales milestones are non-refundable. The regulatory milestones are payable if and when VFMCRP obtains approval from certain regulatory authorities and will be recognized as revenue in the period in which the associated milestone is achieved, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. We account for the sales milestones as royalties and sales milestones payments will be recognized as revenue in the period in which the associated milestone is achieved or sales occur, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met.

 

Pfizer Inc.

 

In  December 2014, we entered into an exclusive worldwide agreement with Pfizer for the development and commercialization of our long-acting Somatrogon (hGH-CTP) for the treatment of growth hormone deficiency (“GHD”) in adults and children, as well as for the treatment of growth failure in children born small for gestational age (the “Pfizer Transaction”). In  May 2020, we entered into an amended and restated development and commercialization license with Pfizer, effective  January 1, 2020 (the “Restated Pfizer Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties agreed, among other things, to share all costs for Manufacturing Activities, as defined in the Restated Pfizer Agreement, for developing a licensed product for the three indications included in the Restated Pfizer Agreement.

 

In  June 2023, the FDA approved NGENLA (Somatrogon (hGH-CTP)) a once-weekly injection to treat pediatric growth hormone deficiency in the United States. In early 2022, the European Commission and Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in Japan approved NGENLA (Somatrogon). We have also received pricing approvals in Germany and Japan. NGENLA (Somatrogon (hGH-CTP)) is approved for the treatment of pediatric GHD in more than 50 markets, including Canada, Australia, Japan, and EU Member States. With the achievement of these milestones, including regulatory approvals and pricing clearances, the Company has received a total of $175 million in milestone payments under the Restated Pfizer Agreement.

 

On  October 21, 2019, we and Pfizer announced that the global phase 3 trial evaluating Somatrogon dosed once-weekly in prepubertal children with GHD met its primary endpoint of non-inferiority to daily Genotropin® (somatropin) for injection, as measured by annual height velocity at 12 months.

 

Under the terms of the Restated Pfizer Agreement we received non-refundable and non-creditable upfront payments of $295.0 million and are eligible to receive up to an additional $275.0 million upon the achievement of certain regulatory milestones. Pfizer received the exclusive license to commercialize Somatrogon worldwide. In addition, we are eligible to receive regional, tiered gross profit sharing for both Somatrogon and Pfizer’s Genotropin® (somatropin) in all global markets, with the U.S. region commencing gross profit sharing in August 2023.

 

The Restated Pfizer Agreement will remain in effect until the last sale of the licensed product, unless earlier terminated in accordance with its terms. In addition to termination rights for material breach and bankruptcy, Pfizer is permitted to terminate the Restated Pfizer Agreement in its entirety, or with respect to one or more world regions, without cause after a specified notice period. If the Restated Pfizer Agreement is terminated by us for Pfizer’s uncured material breach, or by Pfizer without cause, provision has been made for transition of product and product responsibilities to us for the terminated regions, as well as continued supply of product by Pfizer or transfer of supply to us in order to support the terminated regions.

 

We recognized the non-refundable $295.0 million upfront payments as revenue as the research and development services were completed. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had no contract liabilities related to the Pfizer Transaction.

 

The Restated Pfizer Agreement includes milestone payments of $275.0 million upon the achievement of certain milestones. The milestones range from $20.0 million to $90.0 million each and are based on achievement of regulatory approval in the U.S. and regulatory approval and price approval in other major markets. The milestone payments will be recognized as revenue in the period in which the associated milestone is achieved, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met.

We have completed strategic deals with numerous institutions and commercial partners. In connection with these agreements, upon the achievement of certain milestones we are obligated to make certain payments and have royalty obligations upon sales of products developed under the license agreements. At this time, we are unable to estimate the timing and amounts of payments as the obligations are based on future development of the licensed products.

NOTE 15 SEGMENTS

 

We manage our operations in two reportable segments - pharmaceutical and diagnostics. The following is a brief description of our reportable segments and a description of business activities conducted by our corporate operations. 

 

Pharmaceutical — this segment consists of our operations in Chile, Mexico, Ireland, Israel, Spain, Brazil, and Uruguay, Rayaldee product sales, NGENLA royalty and profit-sharing sales, and our pharmaceutical research and development.

 

Diagnostics — this segment primarily consists of clinical laboratory operations through BioReference and our point-of-care operations.

 

To provide greater transparency into the factors affecting segment profitability, the Company discloses significant expense categories for each reportable segment in the tables below. Our CODM is Phillip Frost, M.D., our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Frost reviews our operating results and operating plans and makes resource allocation decisions on a Company-wide or aggregate basis. Our CODM may discuss and review financial information at the Pharmaceutical and Diagnostic operating segment level. The CODM uses segment information to evaluate segment profitability, monitor trends, identify risks and opportunities, allocate resources (such as capital expenditures and R&D funding), and set strategic priorities (including new product development and market expansion). These expenses, along with segment revenue, are used to calculate gross margin, a key profitability metric that the CODM uses to assess segment performance. In computing operating income, none of the following items have been included: interest expense, other non-operating income and expenses, and income taxes. Segment operating income (expense) is total revenue, less cost of revenue and operating expenses relative to each segment. There are no significant inter-segment sales, nor is there any inter-segment allocation of interest expense or income taxes.

 

The following are descriptions of the significant expense categories included in the segment reporting tables below:

 

For the pharmaceutical segment:

 

 

Cost of product revenue: Represents the direct costs of manufacturing and distributing pharmaceutical products, including raw materials, manufacturing overhead, and distribution costs.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses: Encompasses operating expenses such as salaries, marketing and advertising costs, and administrative overhead.

 

Research and development (R&D) expenses: Incurred in developing new pharmaceutical products, including costs related to research, clinical trials, and regulatory approvals.

 

Intangible asset amortization: Represents the periodic expensing of acquired intangible assets, such as patents and licenses.

 

Depreciation: Relates to the depreciation of property, plant, and equipment used in the segment's operations.

 

For the diagnostics segment:

 

 

Cost of service revenue: Includes the direct costs of providing diagnostic testing services, such as laboratory supplies, equipment costs, and labor costs.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses: Similar to the Pharmaceuticals segment, includes salaries, marketing expenses, and administrative overhead.

 

Research and development (R&D) expenses: Incurred in developing new diagnostic products and services, including costs related to research, clinical studies, regulatory submissions, and new technology development.

 

Intangible asset amortization: Represents the periodic expensing of acquired intangible assets, such as intellectual property and customer relationships.

 

Depreciation: Relates to the depreciation of property, plant, and equipment used in the segment's operations.

NOTE 16 LEASES

 

We have operating leases for office space, laboratory operations, research and development facilities, manufacturing locations, warehouses and certain equipment. We determine if a contract contains a lease at inception or modification of a contract. Our leases generally do not provide an implicit interest rate, and we therefore use our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate when measuring operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate we would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of the lease within a particular currency environment. We used the incremental borrowing rates as of January 1, 2019 for operating leases that commenced prior to that date. Many of our leases contain rental escalation, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into our determination of lease payments as appropriate. Variable lease payment amounts that cannot be determined at the commencement of the lease are not included in the right-to-use assets or liabilities.

 

44

 

We elected the use of permitted practical expedients of not recording leases on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet when the leases have terms of 12 months or less, and we elected not to separate nonlease components from lease components and instead account for each separate lease component and the nonlease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component.

 

On January 2, 2023, ModeX entered into a 10-year office lease agreement that commenced in October 2023. ModeX was previously located in Natick, Massachusetts and relocated to Weston, Massachusetts, upon lease commencement. The new location is approximately 33,056 square feet of office space. ModeX has two options to extend the lease term for an additional five years per extension, which could commence upon the expiration of the term in October 2033. Straight-line monthly expense for the lease is $243.5 thousand.

NOTE 17 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On April 4, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized an increase of $100.0 million to the Company’s existing Common Stock repurchase program, bringing the aggregate capacity of the program to $200.0 million. Approximately $40.2 million of Common Stock has been repurchased under the existing program since its authorization in July 2024. Under this program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time through various methods, including open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases, as well as pursuant to pre-set trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act, and otherwise in compliance with applicable laws. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be subject to general market conditions, the Company's capital management, investment opportunities, and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares, has no time limit, and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion.

 

On April 1, 2025, the Company consummated exchange transactions related to the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes. Agreements were entered into with certain institutional holders of such notes on March 27 and March 28, 2025, and the exchanges closed on April 1, 2025. In total, the Company exchanged $159,221,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes for 121,437,998 shares of Common Stock and cash payments totaling approximately $63.5 million, inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest. The exchanged 2029 Convertible 144A Notes were subsequently retired.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

OVERVIEW

 

You should read this discussion together with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, related notes, and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q together with our audited consolidated financial statements, related notes, and other information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the Form 10-K). The following discussion contains assumptions, estimates and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those discussed under Risk Factors, in Part I, Item 1A of the Form 10-K and as described from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

 

We are a diversified healthcare company that seeks to establish industry leading positions in large and rapidly growing medical markets. Our pharmaceutical business features Somatrogon (hGH-CTP), a once-weekly human growth hormone injection. We have partnered with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”) for the development and commercialization of Somatrogon (hGH-CTP). Regulatory approvals for Somatrogon (hGH-CTP) for the treatment of growth hormone deficiency in children and adolescents have been secured in more than 50 markets, including the United States, European Union ("EU") Member States, Japan, Canada, and Australia, where it is marketed under the brand name NGENLA®. We also manufacture and sell Rayaldee, an FDA approved treatment for secondary hyperparathyroidism ("SHPT") in adults with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease ("CKD") and vitamin D insufficiency, through our pharmaceutical division. We have also expanded our pharmaceutical pipeline with early-stage immune therapies targeting cancer and infectious diseases through our 2022 acquisition of ModeX Therapeutics, Inc. ("ModeX").

 

Our diagnostics business, BioReference Health, LLC (“BioReference”), is a highly specialized laboratory in the United States, with a sales and marketing team focused on growth and new product integration, including the 4Kscore® prostate cancer test.

The Company maintains established, revenue-generating pharmaceutical platforms in Spain, Ireland, Chile, and Mexico, contributing to positive cash flow and facilitating market entry for our development pipeline. In addition to these platforms, we operate a global pharmaceutical development and commercial supply company, and a global supply chain operation.

 

 

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

Tariffs and Trading Relationships.

 

In April 2025, the U.S. government announced a baseline tariff of 10% on products imported from all countries and an additional individualized reciprocal tariff on the countries with which the United States has the largest trade deficits, including China. Increased tariffs by the United States have led and may continue to lead to the imposition of retaliatory tariffs by foreign jurisdictions. Additionally, the U.S. government has announced and rescinded multiple tariffs on several foreign jurisdictions, which has increased uncertainty regarding the ultimate effect of the tariffs on economic conditions. Current uncertainties about tariffs and their effects on trading relationships may affect costs for and availability of raw materials or contribute to inflation in the markets in which we operate. Although we are continuing to monitor the economic effects of such announcements, as well as opportunities to mitigate their related impacts, costs and other effects associated with the tariffs remain uncertain.

 

Stock Repurchase Program

 

On April 4, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized an increase of $100.0 million to the Company's existing Common Stock repurchase program, originally established on July 18, 2024, bringing the aggregate capacity of the program to $200.0 million. As previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had repurchased 25,825,785 shares at an average price per share of $1.56, for a total cost of approximately $40.2 million under this program through that date. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

 

Convertible Note Exchange

 

On April 1, 2025, the Company completed privately negotiated exchange transactions pursuant to agreements entered into in late March 2025. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company exchanged an aggregate of $159.2 million principal amount of its 2029 Convertible 144A Notes for an aggregate of 121,437,998 shares of its Common Stock and approximately $63.5 million in cash, inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest. Upon closing, the exchanged 2029 Convertible 144A Notes were retired and are no longer outstanding.

 

Collaboration Agreement with Entera Bio Ltd.

 

On March 16, 2025, the Company and Entera Bio Ltd. ("Entera") entered into a collaboration and license agreement to develop an oral dual agonist GLP-1/glucagon peptide as a potential treatment for obesity, metabolic, and fibrotic disorders, combining OPKO’s proprietary long-acting oxyntomodulin analog (OPK-88006) and Entera’s proprietary N-Tab™ technology.

 

Under the terms of the agreement, the Company and Entera hold 60% and 40% pro-rata ownership interests in the development program, respectively, and are responsible for 60% and 40% of the program's development costs, respectively. In connection with the agreement, the Company purchased 3,685,226 ordinary shares of Entera at a price of $2.17 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $8.0 million.

 

Entera has agreed to utilize the proceeds from this share purchase to fund its 40% share of the program's development costs through the completion of Phase 1. Following Phase 1, Entera has the option to continue funding its 40% share to maintain its pro-rata ownership. Should Entera elect not to continue funding, its ownership interest will be reduced to 15%, with the Company holding the remaining 85% interest and becoming responsible for all ongoing development funding and activities.

 

Agreement to Sell BioReference Oncology Assets

 

On March 10, 2025, the Company and BioReference entered into an agreement with Labcorp (the “Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement”) for Labcorp to acquire BioReference's oncology and related clinical testing services assets (the “Oncology Transaction”). The Oncology Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025, with Labcorp paying up to $225 million in consideration, including $192.5 million in cash at closing and up to $32.5 million in cash in performance-based contingent consideration, as described in the Labcorp Oncology Purchase Agreement.

 

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

 

Approximately 22.3% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar (USD). This compares to 21.5% for the same period in 2024. Our financial statements are reported in USD; therefore, fluctuations in exchange rates affect the translation of foreign-denominated revenue and expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, our most significant currency exchange rate exposures were to the Chilean Peso and Euro. Gross accumulated currency translation adjustments, recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, totaled $41.6 million and $52.7 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

 

We are subject to foreign currency transaction risk due to fluctuations in exchange rates between the time a transaction is initiated and settled. To mitigate this risk, we use foreign currency forward contracts. These contracts fix an exchange rate, allowing us to offset potential losses (or gains) caused by exchange rate changes at the settlement date. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held 60 and zero open foreign exchange forward contracts, respectively, related to inventory purchases on letters of credit.

Revenue. Revenue from services for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased by approximately $24.1 million, a decrease of 19.0% compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease resulted from revenue reductions totaling $35.4 million (composed of $26.9 million due to the absence of revenue following the sale of certain of BioReference's lab operations to Labcorp in September 2024 (the "BioReference Transaction") and $8.5 million from lower clinical test volume in continuing operations). These decreases were partially offset by a $11.4 million increase attributed to higher clinical test reimbursement rates.

 

Estimated collection amounts are subject to the complexities and ambiguities of billing, reimbursement regulations and claims processing, as well as considerations unique to Medicare and Medicaid programs, and require us to consider the potential for retroactive adjustments when estimating variable consideration in the recognition of revenue for the period during which the related services are rendered. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded $1.5 million of negative revenue adjustments due to changes in estimated implicit price concessions for services provided in prior periods, primarily due to shifts in the composition of our client mix. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded $0.5 million of positive revenue adjustments due to changes in estimates of implicit price concessions for performance obligations satisfied in prior periods mainly due to the composition of client pay mix.

 

The composition of revenue from services by payor for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

Total

  $ 102,844     $ 126,890  

 

Cost of revenue. Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased $25.4 million, a decrease of 23.1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease related to the previously mentioned divestiture of certain lab operations from the BioReference Transaction. These divested operations had incurred $24.5 million in cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, costs which did not recur for the comparable 2025 period. The remaining decrease primarily reflects lower employee headcount, resulting from both the divestiture and ongoing cost-reduction initiatives at BioReference, as well as changes in the testing mix for the ongoing operations.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $38.0 million and $45.8 million, respectively, representing a decrease of 17.1% from the prior period. The decrease was primarily driven by the absence of $10.0 million in costs associated with divested operations (which had been incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2024), and lower employee-related expenses resulting from continued cost-reduction initiatives. These favorable impacts, which reduced ongoing expenses, were partially offset by $4.7 million in one-time costs recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 related to adjustments to the useful life of certain operating leases.

 

 

Research and development expenses. The following table summarizes the components of our research and development expenses:

The decrease in research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in employee-related expenses as a result of the continued cost-reduction initiatives implemented at BioReference.

 

Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $3.8 million and $5.0 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. This decrease is primarily due to the removal of amortizable intangible assets associated with the lab operations divested in September 2024.

Revenue from products. Revenue from products for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased $3.2 million or 8.4%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by unfavorable foreign exchange fluctuations impacting our international operations by approximately $1.9 million, a $0.6 million reduction in Rayaldee sales, and unfavorable impacts from the timing of customer orders and product mix. While we experienced higher sales volumes for certain other products compared to 2024, the positive impact of this volume increase was more than offset by these combined negative factors, leading to the overall decrease.

 

Revenue from transfer of intellectual property and other. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue from the transfer of intellectual property and other was $12.3 million compared to $8.7 million for the prior year period, an increase of $3.5 million. This increase was primarily attributable to $7.0 million recognized under the BARDA Contract (as defined and described in Note 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) compared to $2.2 million in the 2024 period. This positive contribution was partially offset by a decrease in gross profit share and royalty payments for NGENLA (Somatrogon) and Pfizer's Genotropin® (Somatropin), which totaled $4.5 million compared with $5.6 million for the same period in 2024.

 

Cost of revenue. Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $1.1 million, an increase of 4.9%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Cost of revenue increased primarily due to an unfavorable shift in product mix. This increase was partially offset by favorable foreign currency exchange rates, which reduced costs by $0.6 million compared to the prior year period.

 

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $12.7 million and $15.0 million, respectively, a decrease of 15.5% from the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by lower employee-related expenses, mainly associated with Rayaldee commercial operations and also from our international operations. Additionally, SG&A benefited from a $0.4 million favorable impact from foreign currency exchange fluctuations and a $0.1 million decrease in equity-based compensation expense compared to the prior year period.

 

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $30.2 million and $21.3 million, respectively, an increase of 42.3% from the prior year period. Research and development expenses include external and internal expenses, partially offset by third-party grants and funding arising from collaboration agreements. External expenses include clinical and non-clinical activities performed by contract research organizations, lab services, purchases of drug and diagnostic product materials and manufacturing development costs. We track external research and development expenses by individual program for phase 3 clinical trials for drug approval and premarket approval for diagnostics tests, if any. Internal expenses include employee-related expenses such as salaries, benefits and equity-based compensation expense. Other internal research and development expenses are incurred to support overall research and development activities and include expenses related to general overhead and facilities.

Total research and development expenses

  $ 30,238     $ 21,247  

 

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased primarily due to higher expenses at ModeX. This increase was driven by a combination of factors, including growth in our BARDA collaboration, advancements and expansion in our early-stage programs, and higher employee-related expenses.

 

Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $16.1 million and $16.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Amortization expense reflects the amortization of acquired intangible assets with defined useful lives. Our indefinite lived IPR&D assets will not be amortized until the underlying development programs are completed. Upon obtaining regulatory approval by the FDA, the IPR&D assets will be accounted for as a finite-lived intangible asset and amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life. The assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of approximately 12 years.

Operating loss for our unallocated corporate operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $8.5 million and $9.4 million, respectively, and principally reflects general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with our corporate operations. The decrease in operating loss for our unallocated corporate operations was primarily due to a decrease in professional fees expenses.

 

Other

 

Interest income. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $4.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively. The increase in interest income is driven by interest earned on our larger cash investment.

 

Interest expense. Interest expense increased to $15.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $7.7 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in interest expense primarily reflects the addition of interest expense and related amortization for the 2044 Notes, which were not outstanding during the prior year period.

 

Fair value changes of derivative instruments, net. Fair value changes of derivative instruments, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, was $0.3 million and $26.2 million of expense, respectively. Derivative expense was principally related to the change in fair value on the 2029 Convertible Notes (see Note 7 for further information) and on foreign currency forward exchange contracts at OPKO Chile.

 

Other income, net. Other income, net decreased by $16.5 million to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $21.3 million in the prior year period. This decrease related primarily to our GeneDx (as defined in Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) investment; we recognized $22.7 million of income from this investment in the first quarter of 2024 reflecting an increase in the fair value of our investment (primarily unrealized gains), compared to a $3.9 million realized gain upon selling our remaining shares in the first quarter of 2025. Partially offsetting this decrease was a $2.8 million favorable swing in foreign currency exchange effects, moving from a $2.7 million expense in the first quarter of 2024 to $0.1 million income in the first quarter of 2025.

 

Income tax benefit. Our income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $5.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the relative mix in earnings and losses in the U.S. versus foreign tax jurisdictions, and operating results in tax jurisdictions which do not result in a tax benefit.

 

Loss from investments in investees. We have invested in certain early-stage companies that we perceive to have valuable proprietary technology and significant potential to create value for us as an equity holder. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting, resulting in the recording of our proportionate share of their losses until our share of their loss exceeds our investment. Until the investees’ technologies are commercialized, if ever, we anticipate they will report net losses Loss from investments in investees was $8.7 thousand and $2.7 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

On March 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $449.7 million. Cash used in operations of $34.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 principally reflects general and administrative expenses related to our corporate operations, research and development activities and sales and marketing activities related to our pharmaceutical and diagnostic business.  Cash from investing activities was $40.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily reflected proceeds from the sale of equity securities, offset by an $8.0 million investment in Entera and capital expenditures. Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $4.0 million primarily reflected net borrowings on our lines of credit. We have historically not generated sustained positive cash flow sufficient to offset our operating and other expenses, and our primary sources of cash have been from the public and private placement of equity and debt, as well as credit facilities available to us.

 

 

On April 4, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized an increase of $100.0 million to the Company’s existing Common Stock repurchase program, bringing the aggregate capacity of the program to $200.0 million. Approximately $40.2 million of OPKO’s Common Stock has been repurchased under the existing program since its authorization in July 2024. Under this program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time through various methods, including open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases, as well as pursuant to pre-set trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act, and otherwise in compliance with applicable laws. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be subject to general market conditions, the Company's capital management, investment opportunities, and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares, has no time limit, and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion.

 

On April 1, 2025, the Company consummated exchange transactions related to its 2029 Convertible 144A Notes. Agreements were entered into with certain institutional holders on March 27 and March 28, 2025, and the exchange transactions closed on April 1, 2025. In total, the Company exchanged $159,221,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Convertible 144A Notes for 121,437,998 shares of Common Stock and cash payments totaling approximately $63.5 million, inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest. The exchanged 2029 Convertible 144A Notes were subsequently retired.

 

On March 10, 2025, the Company and BioReference entered into an agreement with Labcorp to acquire BioReference's oncology and related clinical testing services assets. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025, with Labcorp paying up to $225 million in cash consideration, including $192.5 million in cash at closing and up to $32.5 million in cash in performance-based contingent consideration.

 

During the first quarter of 2025, the Company sold its entire holding of 620 thousand shares of GeneDx common stock at various prices per share for approximately $51.7 million in aggregate proceeds. As a result of these sales, the Company no longer holds any shares in GeneDx.

 

On January 7th, 2025, ModeX announced the dosing of the first participant in a Phase 1 study of an EBV vaccine candidate being developed in collaboration with Merck. This achievement triggered a $12.5 million cash milestone payment from Merck to ModeX under the Merck Agreement. Related revenue of $12.5 million was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 upon satisfaction of the underlying performance obligation. Pursuant to the Merck Agreement, Merck obtained a license to certain patent rights and know-how in connection with the development of ModeX’s preclinical nanoparticle vaccine candidate targeting the Epstein-Barr Virus. 1 Under the terms of the Merck Agreement, ModeX is eligible to receive up to an additional $860.0 million upon the achievement of certain commercial and development milestones.

 

ModeX and Merck have established a strategic collaboration with a detailed research plan to guide the development of such a vaccine or related product. This plan includes the creation of a joint steering committee, and the potential use of third-party contract development and manufacturing organization carry out such activities unless otherwise agreed. Merck will reimburse ModeX for development costs incurred as part of this research plan. To date, we have incurred $26.1 million of development costs related to the Epstein-Barr Virus, which Merck has reimbursed in full.

 

In September 2024, ModeX entered into the BARDA Amendment which increased funding by $26.9 million, for the ongoing development, manufacturing, and execution of a Phase 1 clinical trial for a next-generation MSTAR multispecific antibody with broad neutralizing activity against known variants of SARS-CoV-2. The BARDA Amendment also included BARDA's exercise of an option for the development of a multispecific protein antibody for influenza or another pathogen, with the additional funding allocated to cover the expanded work. These modifications increased the total value of the BARDA Contract to $110.0 million, with a potential value, of $205.0 million if BARDA exercises all options thereunder thereunder to expand MOdeX's services. The BARDA Contract covers a five-year period through February 2028. We expect this funding will support the development of a second novel multispecific antibody to SARS-CoV-2, from preclinical through Phase 1 trials, as well as preclinical work on gene-based expression of multispecific antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, including mRNA and/or DNA vectors. In addition, ModeX will begin development of influenza multispecifics with gene and/or protein delivery modalities. As of March 31, 2025, the aggregate amount remaining to be funded by BARDA, which is subject to performance obligations and excluding unexercised contract options, was $78.0 million.

 

 

On July 17, 2024, we completed a private offering of $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 2044 Notes in accordance with the terms of the 2044 Note Purchase Agreement. The 2044 Notes are secured by the Company’s profit share payments from Pfizer, received under the Restated Pfizer Agreement. The 2044 Notes bear interest at the 3-month SOFR plus 7.5%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 4.0% per annum. The 2044 Notes mature in July 2044, with interest-only payments required for the first four years.

 

As of March 31, 2025, the total commitments under our lines of credit with financial institutions in Chile and Spain were $30.9 million, of which $10.7 million was drawn as of March 31, 2025. On March 31, 2025, the weighted average interest rate on these lines of credit was approximately 5.5%. These lines of credit are short-term and are used primarily as a source of working capital. The highest aggregate principal balance at any time outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $14.3 million. We intend to continue to draw under these lines of credit as needed. There is no assurance that these lines of credit or other funding sources will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, in the future.

 

In connection with our agreements with Merck, Pfizer, VFMCRP, and Nicoya, we are eligible to receive various milestone payments and royalty considerations. Under the terms of the Merck Agreement, we received an initial payment of $50.0 million and are also eligible to receive up to an additional $860.0 million upon the achievement of certain commercial and development milestones under several indications. We are also eligible to receive tiered royalty payments ranging from high single digits to low double digits upon achievement of certain sales targets of the Product (as defined in the Merck Agreement). On January 7, 2025, ModeX announced the dosing of the first participant in a Phase 1 study for an EBV vaccine candidate being developed in collaboration with Merck which triggered a $12.5 million milestone payment from Merck under the Merck Agreement. Under the terms of the Restated Pfizer Agreement, we have received or are eligible to receive up to an additional $275.0 million upon the achievement of certain regulatory milestones, including $90 million triggered by the FDA approval in the United States and $85 million due to the commencement of sales of NGENLA (Somatrogon) in Europe and Japan, which we received in 2022. In addition, we are eligible to receive regional, tiered gross profit sharing for both Somatrogon (hGH-CTP) and Pfizer’s Genotropin®. Under the terms of the VFMCRP Agreement, we are entitled to receive up to an additional $15 million in regulatory milestones and $200 million in milestone payments tied to the launch, pricing and sales of Rayaldee, including a $7 million regulatory milestone payment we recorded in the first quarter of 2023 triggered by the German price approval for Rayaldee and $3 million regulatory milestone payment we recognized in 2022 following the first sale of Rayaldee in Europe. In addition, we are eligible to receive tiered, double-digit royalty payments. Under the terms of the Nicoya Agreement, we received an initial upfront payment of $5 million and are eligible to receive an aggregate of $5 million tied to the first anniversary of the effective date of the Nicoya Agreement, of which we have received $2.5 million. Furthermore, we received the additional $2.5 million upon Nicoya’s submission of the investigational new drug application to the Center for Drug Evaluation of China in March 2023. We are also eligible to receive up to an additional aggregate amount of $115 million upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory and sales-based milestones by Nicoya for the Nicoya Product in the Nicoya Territory. We are also eligible to receive tiered, double digit royalty payments at rates in the low double digits on net product sales within the Nicoya Territory and in the Nicoya Field.

 

We believe that the cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on hand on March 31, 2025 are sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for operations and debt service beyond the next 12 months. We based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong or are subject to change, and we may be required to use our available cash resources sooner than we currently expect. If we acquire additional assets or companies, accelerate our product development programs or initiate additional clinical trials, we will need additional funds. Our future cash requirements, and the timing of those requirements, will depend on a number of factors, including the approval and success of our products and products in development, particularly our long acting Somatrogon (hGH-CTP) for which we have received approval in over 50 markets, including the United States, Europe, Japan, Australia and Canada, the commercial success of Rayaldee, BioReference’s financial performance, possible acquisitions and dispositions, the continued progress of research and development of our product candidates, the timing and outcome of clinical trials and regulatory approvals, the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending, and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights, the status of competitive products, the availability of financing, our success in developing markets for our product candidates and results of government investigations, payor claims, existing legal proceedings (including the ITA litigation) and those that may arise in the future. We have historically not generated sustained positive cash flow and if we are not able to secure additional funding when needed, we may have to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our clinical trials or research and development programs or possible acquisitions or reduce our marketing or sales efforts or cease operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates described in our Form 10-K that have had a material impact on our Quarterly Financials and related notes.

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Accounting standards yet to be adopted.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses is effective prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting period after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (ii) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (iii) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state, and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

 

Recently adopted accounting standards.
 
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt (Subtopic 470-20): Debt with Conversion and Other Options. (“ASU 2024-04”) clarifies the assessment of whether a transaction should be accounted for as an induced conversion or extinguishment of convertible debt when changes are made to conversion features as part of an offer to settle the instrument. ASU 2024-04 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for entities that have adopted ASU 2020-06. We adopted ASU 2024-04 prospectively effective January 1, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2024-04 did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances disclosures for significant segment expenses for all public entities required to report segment information in accordance with ASC 280. ASC 280 requires a public entity to report for each reportable segment a measure of segment profit or loss that its CODM uses to assess segment performance and to make decisions about resource allocations. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024. This guidance was applied prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) established an inclusive framework on base erosion and profit shifting and agreed on a two-pillar solution (“Pillar Two”) to global taxation, focusing on global profit allocation and a 15% global minimum effective tax rate. On December 15, 2022, the EU member states agreed to implement the OECD’s global minimum tax rate of 15%. The OECD issued Pillar Two model rules and continues to release guidance on these rules. The inclusive framework calls for tax law changes by participating countries to take effect in 2024 and 2025. Various countries have enacted or have announced plans to enact new tax laws to implement the global minimum tax. We considered the applicable tax law changes on Pillar Two implementation in the relevant countries, and there is no material impact to our tax results for the period. We anticipate further legislative activity and administrative guidance in 2025, and will continue to evaluate the impacts of enacted legislation and pending legislation to enact Pillar Two Model Rules in the non-US tax jurisdictions we operate in.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

In the normal course of doing business, we are exposed to the risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk – We operate globally, and we are subject to foreign exchange risk in our commercial operations as portions of our revenues are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily those for the Chilean Peso and the Euro.

 

From time to time, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts. Certain firmly committed transactions may be hedged with foreign exchange forward contracts. As exchange rates fluctuate, gains and losses on the exposed transactions are partially offset by gains and losses related to the hedging contracts. Both the exposed transactions and the hedging contracts are translated and fair valued, respectively, at current spot rates, with gains and losses included in earnings. We do not enter into foreign exchange or other derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

 

Our derivative activities, which consist of foreign exchange forward contracts, are intended to economically hedge forecasted cash flows that are exposed to foreign currency risk. The foreign exchange forward contracts generally require us to exchange local currencies for foreign currencies based on pre-established exchange rates at the contracts’ respective maturity dates. As exchange rates change, gains and losses on these contracts are generated based on the change in the exchange rates that are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and offset the impact of the change in exchange rates on the foreign currency cash flows that are hedged. If the counterparties to the exchange contracts do not fulfill their obligations to deliver the contracted currencies, our results of operations could be negatively impacted due to effectively unhedged currency related fluctuations. Our foreign exchange forward contracts primarily hedge exchange rates on the Chilean Peso to the U.S. dollar. If Chilean Pesos were to strengthen or weaken in relation to the U.S. dollar, our loss or gain on hedged foreign currency cash-flows would be offset by the derivative contracts, with a net effect of zero.

 

 

Approximately 22.3% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar (USD). This compares to 21.5% for the same period in 2024. Our financial statements are reported in USD; therefore, fluctuations in exchange rates affect the translation of foreign-denominated revenue and expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, our most significant currency exchange rate exposures were to the Chilean Peso and Euro. Gross accumulated currency translation adjustments, recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, totaled $41.6 million and $52.7 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. For information on such open foreign exchange forward contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Results of Operations— Foreign Currency Exchange Rates.” We do not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments or purchasing hedging instruments or “other than trading” instruments that are likely to expose us to significant market risk, whether interest rate, foreign currency exchange, commodity price, or equity price risk.

 

Interest Rate Risk – Our exposure to interest rate risk relates to our cash and investments and to our borrowings. We generally maintain an investment portfolio of money market funds and marketable securities. The securities in our investment portfolio are not leveraged and are subject to minimal interest rate risk due to their very short-term nature. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. Because of the short-term maturities of our investments, we do not believe that a change in interest rates would have a significant negative impact on the value of our investment portfolio except for reduced income resulting from declining interest rates.

 

At March 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $449.7 million. The weighted average interest rate related to our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was approximately 6.2%. As of March 31, 2025, the principal outstanding balance under our Chilean and Spanish lines of credit was $10.7 million in the aggregate at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.5%.

 

Our outstanding convertible senior notes have fixed rates of interest; therefore, we are not exposed to interest rate risk on those instruments.

 

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we may invest our excess cash in debt instruments of the U.S. Government and its agencies, bank obligations, repurchase agreements and high-quality corporate issuers, and money market funds that invest in such debt instruments, and, by policy, restrict our exposure to any single corporate issuer by imposing concentration limits. To minimize the exposure due to adverse shifts in interest rates, we maintain investments at an average maturity of generally less than three months.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025.

 

Changes to the Companys Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

We are, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising out of our business. During the reporting period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the description of legal proceedings set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Unstable economic and market conditions may have adverse consequences on our business and financial condition.

 

Our business performance may be impacted by a number of factors, including general economic conditions, the geopolitical environment, current or expected inflation, interest rate fluctuations, market volatility and the threat or imposition of broad-based tariffs. Significant developments or changes in national laws or policies to protect or promote domestic interests and/or address foreign competition, including laws and policies in areas such as trade, manufacturing, government purchasing, healthcare, intellectual property, regulatory enforcement and investment/development, can adversely affect our business and financial statements. The current U.S. administration has initiated or is considering imposing tariffs on certain goods. Consequently, certain foreign governments including China, have imposed or are considering imposing reciprocal tariffs on certain U.S. goods. While pharmaceutical products have largely been exempt from the most recent tariffs, such exemptions are likely to be terminated according to statements from the administration. We continue to evaluate the impacts of tariffs on our business and results of operations, but a trade war or other governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements or policies has the potential to disrupt our research activities, could raise our cost of goods, and could therefore adversely impact our business and financial condition.

 

Changes in personnel and funding for government agencies, including the FDA, could negatively impact our business and financial condition.

 

We rely on the FDA to provide feedback on clinical trials and development programs, review regulatory submissions and ultimately review and approve new products. Significant reductions to the FDA’s workforce and budget could constrain the FDA’s ability to timely and effectively provide feedback on our products. If disruptions at the FDA and other agencies delays the time necessary for our product candidates to be reviewed or approved, this delay could prevent our product candidates from being developed or commercialized in a timely manner or otherwise, if at all, which could adversely affect our business and financial condition. 

 

There is also substantial uncertainty as to whether or how the requirements and policies of government agencies including the FDA might be modified. Any significant changes to process or procedures of the FDA could present new challenges to the clinical development and approval process which can in turn affect our ability to timely bring products to market.

 

Similarly, a portion of our business relies on funding from BARDA. There is significant uncertainty at this time as to whether such funding will remain available to us through clinical trials and for the development life of our product candidates. If the funding is reduced for studies related to the products or indications on which we are focused or on which researchers were or may have been considering applying for federal grants, our research and development initiatives could be delayed or otherwise affected.
