As of June 30, 2023, long-term deposit accounts with more than a year of maturity increased by €8.6 million, related to:

-the entry into a €9.3 million two-year deposit forward contract, accessible prior to the expiration of the term with a notice period of 31 days, in January 2023; and
-the change of maturity of a €0.7 million term deposit (a deposit maturing at January 30, 2024 and repaid early in April, 2023).

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, non-current advances to suppliers amounted to €0.9 million, corresponding to the advance paid under the CRO contract with PRA (see Note 6.1 – Commitments related to operational activities).

4.4Deferred tax asset

Inventiva S.A. has recorded tax losses for the first half of 2023. As recovery of these losses in future periods is considered unlikely due to the uncertainty inherent to the Company’s activity, no deferred tax assets were recognized on this basis for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Deferred tax assets were recognized only for the entities that have provided sufficient evidence to attest that they will have a sufficient taxable benefit available to use the unused tax losses in the foreseeable future.

-2023 CIR as of June 30, 2023, in the amount of €3.6 million, including €1.0 million for the R&D Tax Research Credit of Inventiva Inc.; and
-2022 R&D Tax Research Credit of Inventiva Inc as of December 31, 2022, in the amount of €0.7 million.

In the first half of 2023, the Company received the 2022 CIR in the amount of €5.2 million.

Prepaid expenses, did not decrease significantly compared to December 31, 2022, they are mainly composed of trial costs incurred under the CRO contracts and, to a lesser extent, computer maintenance and research equipment costs, patent annuity costs and insurance contributions for the first six months of 2023.

As of June 30, 2023, the current accrued income included the specific costs to be reinvoiced to CTTQ, relating to CRO accrued liabilities, for an amount of €0.7 million (see Note 4.12 “Trade payables and other current liabilities”).

As of June 30, 2023, short-term deposit accounts had decreased by €1.0 million compared to December 31, 2022, mainly due to the deposit account change in maturity for €1.0 million and the end of a deposit for €0.05 million.

Liquidity agreement

On January 19, 2018, the Company entered into a liquidity agreement with Kepler Cheuvreux, replacing the previous liquidity agreement with Oddo BHF, which automatically renews for 12-month periods unless terminated by either party. Under the terms of the agreement, the investment services provider (“ISP”) is authorized to buy and sell the Company’s treasury shares without interference from the Company in order to ensure the liquidity of the shares on the Euronext market.

The liquidity agreement with Kepler Cheuvreux was extended for a new period of 12 months from January 1, 2023.

At June 30, 2023, treasury shares acquired by the Company through its ISP, as well as the gains or losses resulting from share purchase, sale, issue and cancellation transactions during the first half of 2023, were accounted for as a deduction from equity. Consequently, these transactions had no impact on the Company’s results.

As of May 25, 2023, Frédéric Cren is not eligible for a free allotment of Company shares under Article L. 225-197-1 II of the French Commercial Code, as he holds more than 10% of the Company’s share capital. However, if during the one-year period starting May 25, 2023, Frédéric Cren were to become eligible for a free allotment of shares on this basis, the Board of Directors undertakes to allot to the beneficiary, in substitution for the performance units, an equivalent number of free shares. The free shares that will replace the performance units will be governed by AGA Regulation 2023-1.

French state-guaranteed loan (“PGE”) and equity recovery loans (“PPR”)

In May 2020, the Company entered into three credit agreements pursuant to which it received €10.0 million in the form of state-guaranteed loans (Prêts Garantis par l’Etat), or “PGE” which are provided by a syndicate of French banks and guaranteed by the French government in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and were initially set to mature in May 2021. These loans were extended until the third quarter of 2022. The amendments provide for reimbursements to be made over four years, beginning in July 2022 for the loan from Crédit Agricole and in September 2022 for the loans from Bpifrance and Société Générale.

In June 2022, the Company entered into three loan agreements with a syndicate of French banks for a total amount of €5.3 million. One loan agreement was part of a state-guaranteed PGE loan facility with Bpifrance and the other two loan agreements were part of a stimulus economic plan (Prêts Participatifs Relance, or “PPR”) granted by Crédit Agricole Champagne-Bourgogne and Société Générale.

The PGE loan granted by Bpifrance in 2022 is guaranteed up to 90% by the French government with an initial term of twelve months. In May 2023, the Company exercised the option to extend the maturity to align with the 2020 PGE, meaning May 2026. The two PPR loans are guaranteed predominantly by the French government and feature an eight-year financing period and a four-year repayment period.

The PGE repayments in the first six months of 2023 amounted to €1.4 million.

Credit facility agreement with the European Investment Bank

On May 16, 2022, the Company entered into the Finance Contract with EIB for up to €50 million, divided into two tranches of €25 million each.

Capitalized interest for the first tranche (“Tranche A”) is 8% and for the second tranche (“Tranche B”) is 7%. The maturity date of any borrowings under the facility is four years after disbursement of Tranche A and three years after disbursement of Tranche B. It is therefore expected that the reimbursement of the interest and capital of this credit facility should happen after the publication of the headline results of the part 1 of the NATiV3 Phase III clinical trial of lanifibranor in patients with NASH. Any funds not disbursed within 36 months following the execution of the Finance Contract shall be cancelled.

On December 8, 2022, the Company received the disbursement of Tranche A.

The disbursement of the Tranche B is subject to, among other conditions:

-the full drawdown of the first tranche, completed on December 8, 2022;
-the issuance of the second tranche of warrants pursuant to the Warrant agreement (see below under section “Derivatives”);
-the receipt by the Company of an aggregate amount of at least €70 million (it being noted that as of the date of authorization for issuance of these financial statements, the Company has already reached an amount of €59.1 million), made up of either the issuance of new Company shares, or through upfront or milestone payments coming from business development activities on the various assets of the Company;
-an out-licensing, partnership or royalty transaction with an upfront payment of at least €10 million (could be included in the €70 million above); and
-operational criteria based on patient enrollment and number of sites activated in the Company’s NATiV3 Phase III clinical trial of lanifibranor in patients with NASH.

The Finance Contract may, in certain circumstances, be prepaid, in whole or in part, for a prepayment fee, either at the election of the Company or as a result of EIB’s demand following certain prepayment events, including a change of control or change in senior management of the Company.

Subject to certain terms and conditions, upon the occurrence of usual events of default (i.e., including payment default, misrepresentation, cross default), EIB may demand immediate repayment by the Company of all or part of the outstanding loan and/or cancel the undisbursed tranches. As of June 30, 2023 none of the conditions that would result in an immediate demand by EIB for the repayment of the first tranche were met.

Tranche A of €25 million was recognized as financial debt at amortized cost, which takes into account the fair value of the derivative instrument (warrants) at inception and the borrowing costs of €0.1 million. The amortized cost of the loan was €15.4 million on December 8, 2022, and €17.3 million on June 30, 2023, with an effective interest rate of 21.91%. The fair value of the loan as of June 30, 2023, is close to the amortized cost (€16.7 million).

The capitalized interest in the period amounted to €1.7 million.

Derivatives

On July 1, 2022, in connection with the Finance Contract with EIB (see section above “Credit facility agreement with the European Investment Bank”), the Company agreed to issue warrants, with a subscription price of €0.01 per warrant, to EIB as a condition to the potential funding of each tranche of the credit facility. Each warrant gives the right to subscribe to one share.

The number of warrants to be issued to EIB is determined based on (i) the aggregate amount raised by the Company through one or more equity offerings, or through upfront or milestone payments, from the date of the Finance Contract to the time of the disbursement of the relevant tranche, and (ii)(a) the average price per share paid for the Company’s shares in its most recent qualifying equity offering or (ii)(b) for Tranche A only, in case of no qualifying equity offering, the volume weighted average price per share of the Company shares over the last 180 calendar days.

The warrants shall have a maturity of twelve years and shall be exercisable following the earliest to occur of (i) a change of control event, (ii) the maturity date of the first tranche, (iii) an event of default under the Finance Contract, or (iv) a repayment demand by the EIB under the Finance Contract. The warrants shall automatically be deemed null and void if they are not exercised within the twelve-year period. Each warrant will entitle EIB to one ordinary share of the Company in exchange for the exercise price (subject to anti-dilutive provisions). EIB shall be entitled to a put option at its intrinsic value to require the Company to buy back the exercisable warrants not yet exercised in certain of these occurrences.

On November 28, 2022, the Company issued 2,266,023 warrants to EIB as a condition to the financing of the first tranche, representing approximately 5.4% of the Company’s current share capital. The exercise price of the warrants will be €4.0152 if and when the warrants will be exercised. The potential gross proceeds if all warrants were exercised would amount to €9.1 million. The transactions costs amounted to €56 thousands.

The BSA attached to the loan do not meet the “fixed for fixed” criteria (non-cash settlement option which may result in exchanging a variable number of shares for a variable price), and are accounted for as standalone derivative instruments. The Issuer put options meet the definition of a derivative that are valued with the warrants.

The warrants agreement includes a put option: EIB may request the Company to buy back the warrants in cash. In this context the purchase price will be defined as the difference between the volume weighted average of the trading price of the ordinary shares over the last 90 trading days and the strike price. The amount is capped, and EIB may exercise the warrants for which they did not exercise the put option.

At inception, the financial debts are split between i) a debt component accounted for at amortized cost, and ii) a premium corresponding to the initial fair value of attached BSA (then remeasured at fair value through profit and loss) including a component corresponding to the put options.

Valuation approach

The fair value of the BSA has been estimated based on a Longstaff Schwartz approach, including the put option and the attached cap.

This approach enables the estimation of the value of American options (that may be exercised during a specific period of time) with complex way of exercise (the warrant holder may exercise the warrants on the market based on the Company’s share price or exercise the put option based on the 90 days average share price of the Company).

The Longstaff Schwartz approach is also based on the value of the underlying equity instrument at the valuation date, the volatility observed on the historical share price of the Company, and the contractual lifespan associated equity instruments.

The hypothesis and results are detailed in the following tables:
