Keenova Therapeutics plc: restructuring charge — Mallinckrodt to discontinue StrataGraft due to slow uptake; expects ~$15M in exit costs and impairment charge.
Keenova Therapeutics plc
- On Jan 4, 2024, committed to cease commercialization and wind down StrataGraft by end of Q1 2025.
- Pre-tax charges ~$15M excluding impairments: $5M termination benefits, $5M contract/lease termination, $5M other costs; mostly cash charges in Q1 2024.
- Impairment charge on StrataGraft inventory expected in Q1 2024 but amount not yet estimable due to fresh-start accounting from Nov 2023 bankruptcy emergence.
- Decision driven by slower-than-anticipated commercial uptake and clinical trial enrollment; evaluating sale or out-license.
- Majority of charges in Q1 2024, remainder through FY2024 and Q1 2025.
