Product Sales

 

The Company’s commercial launch of DSUVIA in the United States occurred in the first quarter of 2019. Zalviso has been sold in Europe by the Company’s collaboration partner, Grünenthal. Grünenthal has exercised its right to terminate the Amended Agreements, effective November 13, 2020.

 

Contract and Other Collaboration

 

Amended License Agreement

 

Under the Amended License Agreement with Grünenthal, the Company is eligible to receive approximately $194.5 million in additional milestone payments, based upon successful regulatory and product development efforts ($28.5 million) and net sales target achievements ($166.0 million). Grünenthal will also make tiered royalty and supply and trademark fee payments in the mid-teens up to the mid-twenties percent range, depending on the level of sales achieved, on net sales of Zalviso. A portion of the tiered royalty payment, exclusive of the supply and trademark fee payments, will be paid to PDL BioPharma, Inc. or PDL, in connection with the Royalty Monetization. On August 31, 2020, PDL announced it sold its royalty interest for Zalviso to SWK Funding, LLC. For additional information on the Royalty Monetization, see Note 7 “Liability Related to Sale of Future Royalties”.

 

Amended MSA

 

Under the terms of the Amended MSA with Grünenthal, the Company will manufacture and supply the Product for use in the Field for the Territory exclusively for Grünenthal. The Product will be supplied at prices approximating the Company’s manufacturing cost, subject to certain caps, as defined in the MSA Amendment. The MSA Amendment requires the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to enter stand-by contracts with third parties providing significant supply and manufacturing services and, under certain specified conditions, permits Grünenthal to use a third-party back-up manufacturer to manufacture the Product for Grünenthal’s commercial sale in the Territory.

 

As mentioned above, Grünenthal has exercised its right to terminate the Amended Agreements, effective November 13, 2020. In May 2020, upon notification of early termination by Grünenthal, the Company recognized approximately $2.6 million of deferred revenue for the future significant and incremental discount on Zalviso manufacturing services which are no longer a performance obligation.

 

Contract Liability

 

At September 30, 2020, approximately $0.2 million of deferred revenue, all of which represented the current portion, was attributable to the significant and incremental discount on Zalviso manufacturing services for Grünenthal under the Amended Agreements. This deferred revenue is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the period such discount is made available to Grünenthal, which will continue until the last shipment of Zalviso product is made to Grünenthal.
