欧洲杯微信买球阿斯利康提供了与默克的安排状态的更新

2010年3月1日星期一

AstraZeneca today announced that, under the provisions of the agreements relating to the restructuring of the AstraZeneca and Merck joint venture in the United States, AstraZeneca has notified Merck that it will exercise the First Option related to the relinquishment of Merck’s rights over the products not covered by the Partial Retirement (which occurred in March 2008), other than Nexium and Prilosec and the right to receive contingent payments in respect of the authorized generic version of felodipine. Products covered by the First Option include Entocort, Atacand and Plendil, and certain products still in development, including Brilinta, AZD3355, AZD6765 and AZD2327. AstraZeneca expects to consummate this option in April 2010, which will result in the payment to Merck of the Appraised Value of $647 million. As previously disclosed, in accordance with the Agreements, in 2008 a third party appraisal resulted in a calculation of the Appraised Value, being the net present value of the future contingent payments in respect of all agreement products not covered by the Partial Retirement, other than Prilosec and Nexium. Upon consummation of the First Option, contingent payments will cease on the products covered by the First Option. AstraZeneca made contingent payments in respect of the products included in the First Option of $47 million in 2009. Merck’s continuing contingent payment interest in respect of the authorized generic version of felodipine is the result of Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals, Inc. becoming the exclusive US distributor of this product. Such contingent payments will continue for the duration of this arrangement.

根据协议,存在第二种选择,即阿斯利康可以选择回购默克在美国对Prilosec和Nexium的利益。欧洲杯微信买球现在,阿斯利康已经欧洲杯微信买球行使了第一种选择,第二种选择是由阿斯利康(Astrazeneca)在2012年或2017年可行的,或者如果这两种产品的年度销售额均低于最低金额。欧洲杯微信买球阿斯利康(Astrazeneca)对第二种选择的完成将结束有关Prilosec和Nexium的偶然付款,并将有效地结束阿斯利康与默克公司(其他残留制造安排除外)的关系和义务。第二种选择的行使价格是锻炼时确定的Prilosec和Nexium的未来年度应急付款的净现值。欧洲杯微信买球阿斯利康(Astrazeneca)在2009年就Prilosec和Nexium支付了7.26亿美元。

第一个选项的完善将导致额外的摊销费用,与无形资产有关,与首发产品所涵盖的产品的应有付款相关的无形资产有关,每年收取1000万美元至4500万美元的范围,收取了销售的商品成本(COGS),取决于覆盖管道化合物的发射状态的升级。SG&A将收取每年约6000万美元的摊销费用,这与利用这些产品的能力以及在心血管和神经科学疗法领域中利用其他机会有关,以前默克(Merck)对这些产品的兴趣阻止了Astrazeneca。欧洲杯微信买球出于计算核心财务指标的目的,公司将仅排除与治疗区域无形资产相关的摊销费用(即,向SG&A收费)从核心财务指标计算中。
