“Supported by our unique business strategy and focus on the fast-growing millennial demographic, Evolus is continuing to gain market share and remains on track for a strong finish to 2022,” said David Moatazedi, Evolus’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain confident in our ability to achieve cash flow breakeven with our existing cash balance as we explore opportunities to broaden our product portfolio.

The original $125 million term loan facility included two tranches: the first for $75 million that was drawn in full in 2021, and a second undrawn tranche of $50 million that, prior to the extension, was set to expire on December 31, 2022. Except for the new expiration date, all other terms of the facility remain unchanged. Those include:

• A maturity on the six-year anniversary of the closing date of the first tranche.
• Interest-only payments required during the first 36 months after which ratable principal payments commence for the remaining 36 months.
• Interest paid quarterly using the 3-month LIBOR (with a 1% floor) plus 8.5% per annum.
