3. Acquisitions

 

Asset acquisition of MiaMed, Inc.

 

In July 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “MiaMed Agreement”) with MiaMed, Inc., (“MiaMed”). MiaMed is a pre-clinical biotechnology company focused on developing protein replacement therapy for CDKL5 and related diseases. Under the terms of the MiaMed Agreement, the former holders of MiaMed’s capital stock received an aggregate of $6.5 million, comprised of (i) approximately $1.8 million in cash (plus MiaMed’s cash and cash equivalents at closing and less any of MiaMed’s unpaid third-party fees and expenses related to the transaction), and (ii) 825,603 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”). In addition, the Company also agreed to pay up to an additional $83.0 million in connection with the achievement of certain clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones, for a potential aggregate deal value of $89.5 million. The Company evaluated the transaction based on the guidance of Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations and concluded that it only acquired inputs and did not acquire any processes. The Company will need to develop its own processes in order to produce an output. Therefore, the Company accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition and accordingly $6.5 million was expensed to research and development.

 

Acquisition of Scioderm, Inc.

 

In September 2015, the Company acquired Scioderm, a privately-held biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative therapies for treating the rare disease EB. The acquisition leverages the Scioderm development team’s EB expertise with the Company’s global clinical infrastructure to advance SD-101 toward regulatory approvals and the Company’s commercial, patient advocacy, and medical affairs infrastructure to support a successful global launch. The acquisition of Scioderm was accounted for as a purchase of a business in accordance with ASC 805 Business Combinations.

 

The Company acquired Scioderm in a cash and stock transaction. At closing, the Company paid Scioderm shareholders, option holders, and warrant holders approximately $223.9 million, of which approximately $141.1 million was paid in cash and approximately $82.8 million was paid through the issuance of approximately 5.9 million newly issued shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company has agreed to pay up to an additional $361 million to Scioderm shareholders, option holders and warrant holders upon achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones, and $257 million to Scioderm shareholders, option holders, and warrant holders upon achievement of certain sales milestones. If SD-101 is approved, EB qualifies as a rare pediatric disease under The Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (“FDSIA”) and the Company will request a Priority Review Voucher (“PRV”) under the FDSIA, if available. If the PRV is obtained and subsequently sold, the Company will pay Scioderm shareholders, option holders, and warrant holders the lesser of $100 million in the aggregate or 50% of the proceeds of such sale. If the Company obtains the PRV and has not entered into an agreement to sell or otherwise transfer to a third party the PRV within one year of its receipt, the shareholders ‘agent may appoint a financial advisor to conduct a process to sell the PRV. If the Company determines in its sole discretion to use the PRV, the Company shall give the shareholders’ agent written notice thereof and shall pay to the Scioderm shareholders, option holders, and warrant holders $100 million. The inability to sell the PRV after complying with the provisions, shall not give rise to any payment.

 

The fair value of the contingent consideration payments on the acquisition date was $259.0 million. This was an estimate based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, referred to as Level 3 inputs. Key assumptions included a range of discount rates between 0.4% and 1.1% as interpolated from the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yield curve over the time frame for clinical and regulatory milestones and a range of discount rates between 1.0% and 2.2% for revenue-based milestones. The range of outcomes and assumptions used to develop these estimates have been updated to better reflect the probability of certain milestone outcomes and updated timelines related to clinical development and anticipated approval assumptions as of March 31, 2017, without limitation, the milestone payments projected for 2017 (See “— Note 9. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value”, for additional discussion regarding fair value measurements of the contingent acquisition consideration payable). In April 2016, while the total clinical and regulatory approval milestone payments remain unchanged at $361 million, the allocation between the clinical and regulatory approval milestone payments were revised as follows: clinical milestones of up to $81 million and regulatory approval milestones of up to $280 million.  The commercial milestone payments of up to $257 million remained unchanged.

 

At the end of the first quarter of 2017, the Company achieved 100% enrollment in the Phase 3 clinical study of SD-101 and the milestone payment of $10 million due for this event, was paid in April 2017 and was included in Contingent Consideration payable, current portion on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2017.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $264.0 million at March 31, 2017, of which $56.1 million is payable in the next twelve months, resulting in an increase in the contingent consideration payable and related expense of approximately $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The expense is recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as the change within fair value of contingent consideration payable.

 

For additional information, see “— Note 4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets.”

 

The purchase price allocation was completed as of December 31, 2015 and a substantial portion of the assets acquired consisted of intangible assets related to SD-101. The Company determined that the estimated acquisition-date fair value of the indefinite lived IPR&D related to the SD-101 was $463.7 million.
