Paion - Progressing towards filings in US and Japan

Paion and partner Cosmo took an important step towards a US filing for its ultra-short-acting sedative/anaesthetic remimazolam, with the completion of a successful pre-NDA meeting in July. Filing in Japan (via partner Mundipharma) is expected before the end of 2018. Paion took a step towards its goal of self-commercialising remimazolam in Europe with the initiation of a Phase III study in general anaesthesia (GA) in July. The company is funded beyond top-line data from the EU Phase III trial expected in 2019. We lift our valuation to €283m or €4.44 per share.
