NOTE 10 – Long-Term Debt

 

On  March 7, 2022, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Pharmakon for a senior secured term loan of up to $100 million in two tranches (the "2022 Loan Agreement"). The first tranche of $75 million was funded in  March 2022. The second tranche of $25 million was funded in  December 2022.

 

On June 29, 2023, the loan agreement with Pharmakon was amended to replace the benchmark governing the interest rate with a rate based on the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Effective July 2023, the loan accrued interest using a benchmark rate of three-month SOFR plus 8.25% plus an additional adjustment of 0.26161%.

 

On March 13, 2024, the Company entered into an amended and restated loan agreement, which replaced the 2022 Loan Agreement, with Pharmakon for an additional third and fourth tranche of senior secured loan (the “2024 Loan Agreement”). The third tranche of $25.0 million was funded in September 2024. The fourth tranche of $75.0 million became available at the Company's option no later than August 29, 2025, based upon having received FDA approval of a new drug application (“NDA”) for Zusduri by June 30, 2025. The Company did not draw down the fourth tranche. Under the 2024 Loan Agreement, prior to the refinancing described in the immediately following paragraph, all outstanding loans accrued interest using a benchmark rate of three-month SOFR plus 7.25% plus an additional adjustment of 0.26161%. 


On February 26, 2026, the Company entered into a second amended and restated loan agreement, which replaced the 2024 Loan Agreement, with Pharmakon providing for a senior secured term loan facility of up to $250.0 million, consisting of two tranches (the “2026 Loan Agreement”). The first tranche of $200.0 million refinanced the Company's term loan facility under the 2024 Loan Agreement which had $125.0 million of outstanding principal, with the remaining proceeds available for general corporate purposes and working capital. The second tranche of $50.0 million may, at the Company's option, be requested no later than June 30, 2027 for a funding to occur no later than August 29, 2027, subject to customary conditions.

 

All outstanding loans with Pharmakon pursuant to the 2026 Loan Agreement accrue interest at a fixed rate of 8.25%. The principal amount of the loans outstanding under the 2026 Loan Agreement shall be repayable in four equal quarterly payments commencing in the first quarter of 2030. The Company may prepay the full outstanding principal amount of the loans whole at the Company's discretion at any time, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and subject to prepayment premiums, make-whole amounts, as applicable, and fees.


The obligations of UroGen Pharma, Inc., as the borrower under the 2026 Loan Agreement, are guaranteed by UroGen Pharma Ltd., subject to customary limitations on parent guarantees under Israeli law, and are secured by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets and property, including intellectual property, of UroGen Pharma, Inc. and UroGen Pharma Ltd., subject to certain exceptions.

 

The Company incurred financing expenses of $4.2 million related to the first and second tranches under the 2022 Loan Agreement funded in 2022, and $0.5 million related to the third tranche funded in 2024 under the 2024 Loan Agreement, which are recognized as a direct offset to the long-term debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. These debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method, and are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as "Interest expense."

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
