Long-term debt |
Long-term debt | 8 Long-term debt ​ On June 14, 2013, the Company entered into a venture debt loan facility with Hercules Capital, Inc. (formerly known as Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc.) (“Hercules”). The facility was amended and restated in 2014, 2016, 2018, January 2021, December 2021 (the “2021 Restated Facility”) and on May 12, 2023 (the “2023 Amended Facility”). ​ The total principal outstanding under the 2023 Amended Facility is $100.0 million. ​ The 2023 Amended Facility extends the maturity date and interest-only period from December 1, 2025 to January 5, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”). ​ The Company is required to repay the entire principal balance on the Maturity Date. The interest rate is adjustable and is the greater of (i) 7.95% and (ii) 7.95% plus the prime rate less 3.25% per annum. Under the 2023 Amended Facility, the Company owes a back-end fee of $4.9 million on December 1, 2025 and a back-end fee of $1.3 million on the Maturity Date. The amortized cost (including interest due presented as part of accrued expenses and other current liabilities) of the 2023 Amended Facility was $103.3 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $102.9 million as of December 31, 2023, and is recorded net of discount and debt issuance costs. The foreign currency loss on the facility in the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $2.3 million, compared to a foreign currency gain of $0.7 million during the same period in 2023. Interest expense associated with the 2023 Amended Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $3.7 million, compared to $3.6 million during the same period in 2023. Under the 2023 Amended Facility the Company must remain current in its periodic reporting requirements and is required to keep a minimum cash balance deposited in bank accounts in the U.S. equivalent to the lesser of (i) 65% of the outstanding balance of principal due or (ii) 100% of worldwide cash and cash equivalents. This restriction on cash and cash equivalents only relates to the location of the cash and cash equivalents, and such cash and cash equivalents can be used at the discretion of the Company. Beginning on April 1, 2024, the Company is required to keep a minimum of unrestricted cash equal to at least 30% of the loan amount outstanding. In combination with other covenants, the 2023 Amended Facility restricts the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur future indebtedness and obtain additional debt financing, to make investments in securities or in other companies, to transfer assets, to perform certain corporate changes, to make loans to employees, officers, and directors, and to make dividend payments and other distributions to its shareholders. The Company secured the facilities by directly or indirectly pledging its total assets of $770.1 million, less $6.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and other current assets held by the Company, and $87.7 million of other current assets and investment held by uniQure France SAS as well as receivables sold to the Purchaser. Under the 2023 Amended Facility, the occurrence of a material adverse effect, as defined therein, would entitle Hercules to declare all principal, interest and other amounts owed by the Company immediately due and payable. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in material compliance with all covenants and provisions.
