Rhea-AI Summary

Apellis Pharmaceuticals announced a new non-dilutive senior secured credit facility with Sixth Street for up to $475 million, with $375 million received at closing. Apellis can access an additional $100 million before September 2025 under certain conditions and another $100 million through a third-party working capital facility. The majority of the proceeds will buy out a $326 million development liability to SFJ Pharmaceuticals, eliminating $366 million in payments through 2027. This improves Apellis' liquidity without needing additional capital markets funding. The credit facility matures in 2030 with a 3-month SOFR + 5.75% interest rate and is secured by Apellis' assets. As of March 31, 2024, Apellis had $325.9 million in cash and equivalents.
