  • Biogen will pay Samsung BioLogics approximately $700 million to increase its ownership in Samsung Bioepis to approximately 49.9%
  • Transaction expected to close in the second half of 2018

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biogen (Nasdaq:BIIB) announced today it has exercised its option to purchase additional shares of Samsung Bioepis Co., Ltd., a joint venture established in 2012 by Samsung BioLogics Co., Ltd and Biogen. 

Under the terms of the 2012 joint venture agreement, Biogen will pay Samsung BioLogics approximately $700 million for the option shares, increasing Biogen’s ownership in Samsung Bioepis from approximately 5.4% to approximately 49.9%.  The completion of this share purchase is subject to certain regulatory closing conditions and is expected to close in the second half of 2018.  The exact share purchase price will depend on the timing of the closing and foreign currency exchange rates at that time.

“We are very pleased with the progress made to date at Samsung Bioepis and believe exercising this option is an opportunity to create meaningful value for our shareholders,” said Michel Vounatsos, chief executive officer at Biogen. “This option allows us to increase our ownership share in a leading biosimilar company at what we believe are attractive terms.  We look forward to building an important relationship with Samsung BioLogics.”
