Unilife and OrbiMed Amend Debt Financing Agreement
Cash receipt covenant for six months ended June 30, 2015 removed
YORK, Pa., July 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Unilife Corporation (NASDAQ: UNIS and ASX: UNS), a developer, manufacturer and supplier of injectable drug delivery systems, announced today that its debt agreement with OrbiMed has been amended as of June 30, 2015. This amendment removed a covenant that required Unilife to generate at least $20 million in cash receipts from customers during the six months ended June 30, 2015. There were no other adjustments to any of the terms of the debt agreement as part of this amendment.
Additionally, Unilife announced that it recorded $5.5 million and $14.4 million in unaudited cash receipts for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
Mr. Alan Shortall, Chairman and Chief Executive of Unilife, said: "Unilife continues to enjoy a strong partnership with OrbiMed. The business fundamentals of Unilife remain on track. As we have said previously, our cash receipts may be lumpy on a quarter to quarter basis, as reflected by our cash receipts for the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter. We continue to expand our cleanroom facilities in York, PA and increase our production capacities in line with customer demand. Negotiations for additional agreements with existing and other prospective customers seeking access to products from across our portfolio continue to advance favorably, with some of these agreements expected to include upfront payments."
