Acquisitions	3. Acquisitions Censa Asset Acquisition On May 29, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of Censa Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Censa”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 5, 2020 (the "Censa Merger Agreement"), by and among the Company, Hydro Merger Sub, Inc., the Company’s wholly owned, indirect subsidiary, and, solely in its capacity as the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the securityholders of Censa, Shareholder Representative Services LLC (the "Censa Merger"). Upon the closing of the Censa Merger, the Company paid to the Censa securityholders (i) cash consideration of $15.0 million, which consisted of an upfront payment of $10.4 million and an additional $4.6 million for the net assets on Censa’s opening balance sheet as of the date of the acquisition, and (ii) 845,364 shares of the Company’s common stock, which were valued at $42.9 million based on the closing stock price on the acquisition date. The number of shares issued was determined using a 30-day volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) pursuant to the Censa Merger Agreement. The Company determined that substantially all of the fair value is concentrated in PTC923 and accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition under ASC 805-50. The purchase price consisted of the cash consideration of $15.0 million and $42.9 million in the Company’s common stock, in addition to $0.7 million of acquisition costs. As such, the total consideration transferred was determined to be $58.6 million. The opening balance sheet net assets of $4.6 million, which consisted of cash of $3.8 million and other current assets of $0.8 million, were determined to be non-qualifying assets and recorded at their fair values, respectively. The remaining consideration of $54.0 million was allocated to PTC923. As PTC923 is an IPR&D asset, the Company concluded that it did not have any alternative future use, and accordingly, the fair value amount allocated to the IPR&D was expensed. Of the $54.0 million, $53.3 million is included in research and development expense and the $0.7 million related to the acquisition costs, is included in selling, general, and administrative expense within the Company’s statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Censa Merger Agreement, Censa securityholders may become entitled to receive contingent payments from the Company based on (i) the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones up to an aggregate maximum amount of $217.5 million for PTC923’s two most advanced programs and receipt of a priority review voucher from the FDA as set forth in the Censa Merger Agreement, (ii) $109.0 million in development and regulatory milestones for each additional indication of PTC923, (iii) the achievement of certain net sales milestones up to an aggregate maximum amount of $160.0 million, (iv) a percentage of annual net sales during specified terms, ranging from single to low double digits of the applicable net sales threshold amount, and (v) any sublicense fees paid to the Company in consideration of any sublicense of Censa’s intellectual property to commercialize PTC923, on a country-by-country basis, which contingent payment will equal to a mid-double digit percentage of any such sublicense fees. Pursuant to the Censa Merger Agreement, the Company has the option to pay the initial $30.0 million development milestone, for the completion of enrollment of a Phase 3 clinical trial for PTC923 for PKU, if achieved, in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company will record the milestone and royalty payments when they become payable. Milestone payments prior to FDA approval of PTC923 for PKU (or other indications) will be expensed accordingly and milestone payments that will only occur after PTC923 for PKU (or other indications) is FDA approved, will be capitalized and amortized over their expected useful lives. BioElectron Asset Acquisition On October 25, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of BioElectron Technology Corporation (“BioElectron”), a Delaware corporation, including certain compounds that the Company has begun to develop as part of its Bio-e platform, (the “Asset Acquisition”) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement by and between the Company and BioElectron, dated October 1, 2019 (the “BioElectron Asset Purchase Agreement”). BioElectron was a private company with a pipeline focused on inflammatory and central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The lead program, vatiquinone, is in late stage development for CNS disorders with substantial unmet need and significant commercial opportunity that are complementary to PTC’s existing pipeline. Upon the closing of the Asset Acquisition, the Company paid to BioElectron total upfront consideration of $10.0 million, funded with cash on hand, less (i) transaction expenses incurred by BioElectron, (ii) the amount of outstanding indebtedness of BioElectron including a $4.0 million loan advance to BioElectron plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (iii) $1.5 million held in an escrow account to secure potential indemnification obligations owed to the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions of the BioElectron Asset Purchase Agreement, BioElectron may become entitled to receive contingent milestone payments of up to $200.0 million (in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock, as determined by the Company) from the Company based on the achievement of certain regulatory and net sales milestones. Subject to the terms and conditions of the BioElectron Asset Purchase Agreement, BioElectron may also become entitled to contingent payments based on a percentage of net sales of certain products. The Company concluded that the transaction included inputs and processes that did not constitute a business under the revised guidance of ASU 2017-01, which allows for a screen to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen is met, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. The Company determined that substantially all of the fair value is concentrated in vatiquinone and accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition under ASC 805-50. The purchase price consisted of upfront consideration of $10.0 million in cash and approximately $0.5 million of acquisition costs, resulting in $10.5 million of total consideration transferred. As vatiquinone is an IPR&D asset, the Company concluded that it did not have any alternative future use, and accordingly, the fair value amount allocated to the IPR&D asset of $10.0 million was expensed to research and development during the year ended December 31, 2019 and included within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. The remaining assets acquired and liabilities assumed were immaterial. Additionally, as noted above, BioElectron may be entitled to receive contingent milestone payment and contingent royalty payments. The Company will record the milestone and royalty payments if and when they become payable, in accordance with the applicable guidance. These payments will be capitalized and amortized over their expected useful lives.
