Galapagos Advanced discussions with Gilead on potential collaboration
Galapagos announced that, following Gilead entering into a definitive agreement to acquire Ouro Medicines for $1,675m in cash consideration, and up to $500m in contingent milestone payments, Galapagos and Gilead are in advanced partnership discussions. Economically, Galapagos would effectively co-finance Gilead's acquisition and early-stage development of gamgertamig in return for royalties on net sales (20-23%) and freedom to go up to $500m (previously $150m) in the amended OLCA. In our view, this structure provides Galapagos with the flexibility to pursue additional business development opportunities with its remaining cash balance, while retaining royalty rights for gamgertamig without bearing commercialisation costs. € 37 TP and Accumulate maintained.Galapagos is a clinical-stage biotechnology company specialized in the discovery and development of small molecule medicines with novel modes of action, addressing disease areas of high unmet medical need.
