Senior Secured Lender to Exchange Outstanding Debt into Equity of the Reorganized Entities
Business Operations at U.S. Subsidiaries to Continue as They Pursue Strategic Plan
RVLP Ordinary Shares Expected to be Cancelled
RVL Pharmaceuticals plc (“RVL” or “the Company”), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the commercialization of UPNEEQ® (oxymetazoline hydrochloride ophthalmic solution), 0.1%, for the treatment of acquired blepharoptosis, or droopy eyelid, in adults, today announced that certain of its U.S. operating subsidiaries, RevitaLid Pharmaceutical Corp., RVL Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and RVL Pharmacy, LLC (the “RVL Subsidiaries”), have reached an agreement with their sole secured lenders, funds managed by Athyrium Capital Management (“Athyrium”), and other key stakeholders, to effectuate a change of control transaction through prepackaged bankruptcy cases commenced in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware today (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization provides a structured pathway for the RVL Subsidiaries to significantly reduce their debt, while enabling them to streamline operations, maintain jobs and position themselves under new ownership. As a result of the Reorganization, RVL is expected to commence the wind-down of any remaining operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, other than the RVL Subsidiaries. RVL’s public equity is expected to be cancelled upon completion of its wind-down, anticipated to be during 2024, likely resulting in no recovery to public shareholders.
Under the Reorganization, funds managed by Athyrium will exchange their outstanding debt into equity of a newly formed entity that will either (1) directly hold 100% of the equity interests of Revitalid Pharmaceutical, Corp., which is currently an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, or (2) indirectly hold 100% of the equity interests of RVL Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Revitalid Pharmaceutical, Corp. and the direct parent of RVL Pharmacy, LLC. In addition, funds managed by Athyrium are committed to providing incremental financing facilities to support the RVL Subsidiaries’ operations during the Reorganization and to support their long-term growth and liquidity. The Reorganization will enhance the RVL Subsidiaries’ ability to invest in UPNEEQ, accelerate their strategic initiatives, and allow for the continued delivery of high-quality, innovative ocular and aesthetic solutions for patients and healthcare partners. The Reorganization contemplates that all of RVL Subsidiaries’ vendors, suppliers, and customers will be unaffected by the Reorganization, and their employees will remain employed by these entities.
Brian Markison, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, commented, “This is a significant step forward in securing RVL’s future, ensuring we continue to meet the demands of our patients while also executing our long-term growth strategy. As we move forward, we remain committed to realizing the full commercial potential of UPNEEQ.”
The RVL Subsidiaries are being advised by Ropes & Gray LLP, Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A., and A&L Goodbody LLP as legal counsel, Ernst & Young LLP as financial advisor, and Ducera Partners LLC as investment banker.
