OBSV ObsEva SA

Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR of the SIX Swiss Exchange

GENEVA, Switzerland – December 19, 2022 – ObsEva SA (NASDAQ: OBSV; SIX: OBSN), a biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing novel therapies for women’s health, today announced that the competent court in Geneva, Switzerland has granted the Company’s request to withdraw its moratorium considering that the Company is no longer over-indebted.

The Company resolved its over-indebtedness due to the previously announced sale of all its rights to Ebopiprant to XOMA Corporation (XOMA) for an upfront payment of $15 million. Additionally, ObsEva is eligible to receive future milestone payments of up to approximately $98 million upon the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones and sales milestones relating to the development of Ebopiprant under a license agreement with Organon. In July 2021, ObsEva granted a license to Organon for the global development, manufacturing, and commercial rights to Ebopiprant.

“The dismissal of moratorium proceedings marks a turning point for ObsEva, as we now look ahead to future development of nolasiban and other strategic options to maximize shareholder value,” said Brian O’Callaghan, CEO of ObsEva. “Having resolved our over-indebtedness and strengthened our financial position with a suite of restructuring initiatives in recent months, we are now focusing our resources on nolasiban. Nolasiban holds potential as a novel, oral oxytocin receptor antagonist being developed to improve in vitro fertilization success rates, for which there exists a significant unmet global need.”

ObsEva retains worldwide, exclusive, commercial rights for nolasiban, except for the People’s Republic of China, where its partner Yuyuan BioScience plans to initiate a clinical trial following the recent approval of their Investigational New Drug application in China.
