Acquisitions and Other Transactions
Upjohn Agreement
On July 29, 2019, the Company, Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), Upjohn Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pfizer (“Upjohn” or “Newco”), and certain other affiliated entities entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company will combine with Pfizer’s Upjohn Business (the “Upjohn Business”) in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Combination”). The Upjohn Business is a global, primarily off-patent branded and generic established medicines business, which includes 20 primarily off-patent solid oral dose legacy brands, such as Lyrica, Lipitor, Celebrex and Viagra, as well as certain generic medicines.
Prior to the Combination and pursuant to a Separation and Distribution Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”), dated as of July 29, 2019, between Pfizer and Newco, Pfizer will, among other things, transfer to Newco substantially all of the assets and liabilities comprising the Upjohn Business (the “Separation”) and, thereafter, Pfizer will distribute to Pfizer stockholders all of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco (the “Distribution”). When the Distribution and Combination are completed, Pfizer stockholders as of the record date of the Distribution will own 57% of the outstanding shares of Newco common stock, and Mylan shareholders as of immediately before the Combination will own 43% of the outstanding shares of Newco common stock, in each case on a fully diluted basis. Newco will make a cash payment to Pfizer equal to $12 billion, to be funded with the proceeds of debt to be incurred by Newco in connection with the foregoing transactions, as partial consideration for the contribution of the Upjohn Business from Pfizer to Newco.
Newco has obtained commitments for the initial financing of the transaction in the form of a bridge loan from certain financial institutions. If Newco obtains additional funding by issuing securities or obtaining other loans, the amount of the bridge facility will be correspondingly reduced. The bridge loan is subject to customary terms and conditions including a financial covenant.
            The consummation of the Combination is subject to various customary closing conditions, including (i) approval of the Combination by the Company's ordinary shareholders, (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended and the receipt of antitrust approvals in various countries, (iii) completion of the Separation (including the payment of $12 billion of cash by Newco to Pfizer) and the Distribution in accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement, (iv) confirmation by applicable tax authorities of the intended tax treatment of the transaction, and (v) the absence of any law or order from any court or governmental authority (including legal actions or proceedings pursued by U.S. state authorities in the relevant states) restraining, enjoining or prohibiting the transaction.
Other Transactions
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company completed three development agreements to acquire certain intellectual property rights for products that were in the development stage. The agreements include additional development and commercial milestones. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded expense of approximately $30.5 million as a component of research and development (“R&D”) expense related to non-refundable upfront payments for these agreements.    
As previously disclosed, on August 31, 2018, the Company completed an agreement (the “purchase agreement”) with certain subsidiaries of Novartis AG (“Novartis”) to purchase the worldwide rights to their global cystic fibrosis products
consisting of the TOBI Podhaler® and TOBI® solution. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Novartis will receive fixed consideration of $463.0 million, which consists of $240.0 million which was paid at closing, $130.0 million which was paid in August 2019 and a deferred payment of $93.0 million due in August 2020. The Company also entered into a supply agreement with Novartis to purchase the products for up to three years from the date of closing and initially recorded a liability of approximately $91.8 million related to supply obligations. Additionally, Novartis was also eligible to receive a contingent payment of up to $20.0 million if the Company did not acquire the Facility (as defined below), which the Company accrued for at closing. The Company originally accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition since the exercise of the option agreement (described below) was not deemed probable at the time of the closing of the purchase agreement and accordingly recognized an intangible asset for the product rights of $574.8 million on the closing date of the purchase agreement.
In conjunction with the purchase agreement, Mylan and Novartis entered into an option agreement pursuant to which Novartis granted Mylan an exclusive option to acquire certain equipment and employees relating to the Novartis TOBI Podhaler® production facility in San Carlos, California (the “Facility”). The option also includes the transfer of certain agreements to Mylan. On May 28, 2019, Mylan notified Novartis of its election to exercise the purchase option. As a result of the option exercise, Novartis is no longer eligible to receive the contingent payment and during the second quarter of 2019 the Company reversed the accrual for the $20.0 million contingent payment with the offset being a reduction in the value of the intangible asset.
This transaction closed in the third quarter of 2019, and the Company paid Novartis $10.0 million for the Facility. In addition, the Company will receive reimbursement from Novartis for certain restructuring and other costs at the Facility and will purchase the remaining inventory at closing. As a result of the option exercise and the acquisition of the Facility, the Company has accounted for these transactions as a single transaction and revised its accounting to an acquisition of a business under ASC Topic 805 Business Combinations.
The preliminary allocation of the $481.9 million purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for this business is as follows:
(In millions)
 
Current assets
$
29.2

Property, plant and equipment
30.0

Intangible and other noncurrent assets
496.7

Total assets acquired
555.9

 
 
Current liabilities
(54.0
)
Long-term debt and other noncurrent obligations
(20.0
)
Net assets acquired
$
481.9


The identified intangible assets are comprised of product rights with a weighted average useful life of ten years. The impact of the revised accounting included a reduction of approximately $100.0 million in value of the intangible assets and liabilities related to an unfavorable supply contract and the contingent payment. Significant assumptions utilized in the valuation of identified intangible assets were based on company specific information and projections which are not observable in the market and are thus considered Level 3 measurements as defined by U.S. GAAP. The preliminary fair value estimates for assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based upon preliminary calculations, valuations and assumptions that are subject to change as the Company obtains additional information during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The primary areas of those preliminary estimates that are not yet finalized relate to the estimated fair value of intangible assets and deferred income taxes. The acquisition did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations since the acquisition date or on a pro forma basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
On February 28, 2018, the Company and Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (“Revance”) entered into a collaboration agreement (the “Revance Collaboration Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company and Revance will collaborate exclusively, on a world-wide basis (excluding Japan), to develop, manufacture and commercialize a biosimilar to the branded biologic product (onabotulinumtoxinA) marketed as BOTOX®.
Under the Revance Collaboration Agreement, the Company will be primarily responsible for (a) clinical development activities outside of North America (excluding Japan) (the “ex-U.S. Mylan territories”), (b) regulatory activities, and (c) commercialization for any approved product. Revance will be primarily responsible for (a) non-clinical development activities, (b) clinical development activities in North America, and (c) manufacturing and supply of clinical drug substance and drug product; Revance will be solely responsible for an initial portion of non-clinical development costs. The remaining portion of any non-clinical development costs and clinical development costs for obtaining approval in the U.S. and Europe will be shared equally between the parties, and the Company will be responsible for all other clinical development costs and commercialization expenses. Upon closing, Revance received a non-refundable upfront payment of $25.0 million. In addition, under the Revance Collaboration Agreement, Revance can receive potential development milestone payments of up to $100.0 million, in the aggregate, upon the achievement of specified clinical and regulatory milestones and potential tiered sales milestones of up to $225.0 million. In addition, Mylan will pay Revance royalties on sales of the biosimilar in the ex-U.S. Mylan territories. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition of in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) and the total upfront payment was expensed as a component of R&D expense during the year ended December 31, 2018.
On August 22, 2019, the Company and Revance entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Revance Collaboration Agreement, pursuant to which, Revance has agreed to extend the period of time for the Company to decide whether to continue the development and commercialization of a biosimilar to the branded biologic product (onabotulinumtoxinA) marketed as BOTOX® beyond the initial development plan to prepare for and conduct the Biosimilar Initial Advisory Meeting (BIAM) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). In accordance with the Amendment, the Company is required to notify Revance of its decision on or before the later of (i) April 30, 2020 or (ii) thirty calendar days from the date that Revance provides Mylan with certain deliverables, and the Company has agreed to make a payment to Revance in the amount of $5.0 million for the Amendment, which was expensed as a component of R&D expense during the three months ended September 30, 2019. All other terms of the Revance Collaboration Agreement remain unchanged.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company completed four agreements to acquire certain intellectual property rights and marketing authorizations for products that were in the development stage, including agreements with Fujifilm Kyowa Kirin Biologics Co., Ltd. (“FKB”), Mapi Pharma Ltd., and Lupin Limited. The Company also completed the acquisition of intellectual property rights and marketing authorizations related to a commercialized product in certain rest of world markets for $220.0 million, of which $160.0 million was paid at closing, $20.0 million was paid in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the remaining amount was paid in the second quarter of 2019. The Company is accounting for these transactions as asset acquisitions and a useful life of five years is being used to amortize the asset related to the commercialized product. The Company recorded expense of approximately $53.7 million as a component of R&D expense related to non-refundable upfront payments for agreements for products in development during the year ended December 31, 2018. Certain of the agreements include additional development and commercial milestones.
On February 22, 2018, the Company in-licensed European rights to Hulio™, a biosimilar to AbbVie Inc.'s (“AbbVie”) Humira® (adalimumab), including a sub-license to certain of AbbVie’s European patents, from FKB. On February 27, 2019, the Company updated its arrangements with FKB for the commercialization of Hulio™. Under the updated arrangements, Mylan has in-licensed exclusive global commercialization rights for Hulio™. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition of IPR&D and a net non-contingent amount due to FKB of approximately $23.3 million was expensed as a component of R&D expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.    
On December 1, 2018, the Company and certain subsidiaries of Aspen Pharmacare Holdings Limited entered into an agreement for Mylan to distribute a portfolio of prescription and over-the-counter (“OTC”) products in Australia and New Zealand. The agreement included an option for Mylan to purchase the rights to the portfolio. In March 2019, the Company exercised the option, and acquired the product rights in the second quarter of 2019 for approximately $130.9 million. The purchase consideration of approximately $130.9 million includes a payment made at closing of approximately $64.3 million and amounts payable in 2020 totaling approximately $66.6 million.
The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition and recognized an intangible asset for the product rights of approximately $130.9 million. The intangible asset is being amortized over a useful life of five years.
On January 30, 2015, the Company entered into a development and commercialization collaboration with Theravance Biopharma, Inc. (“Theravance Biopharma”) for the development and, subject to FDA approval, commercialization of Revefenacin. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company and Theravance Biopharma announced the expansion of this agreement to include China and certain adjacent territories (the “Territory”). Revefenacin, marketed as Yupelri® in the U.
S., is a long-acting muscarinic antagonist, which is the first and only once-daily, nebulized bronchodilator approved for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the U.S. and is currently under development in the Territory. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition of IPR&D and the total upfront payment of $18.5 million was expensed as a component of R&D expense.
