Medicus Pharma To Acquire Antev In All-Stock Deal, Issuing 2.67M Shares Plus Up To $65M In Milestone Payments Tied To FDA Approvals

Author: Benzinga Newsdesk | June 30, 2025 12:54pm

On June 29, 2025, Medicus Pharma Ltd. ("Medicus" or the "Company"), Antev Limited ("Antev") and certain securityholders of Antev entered into a definitive securities exchange agreement (the "Definitive Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire (the "Transaction") all of the issued and outstanding shares of Antev, on a fully diluted basis, in exchange for 2,666,600 (or approximately 17% in aggregate) of the issued and outstanding Medicus common shares (the "Consideration Shares").

In addition to resale restrictions prescribed under applicable securities laws, the Consideration Shares will be subject to a staggered lock-up (including certain registration rights, as further described in the Definitive Agreement) and an agreement granting certain voting rights in favor of Company management for a period of 36 months.

Upon the achievement of certain milestones related to potential future U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") Phase 2 and New Drug Administration approvals, as more particularly described in the Definitive Agreement, Antev shareholders will be entitled to receive up to approximately US$65 million in additional contingent consideration.

The Transaction is expected to close before the end of August 2025, subject to the fulfillment of certain closing conditions, including obtaining Antev shareholder approval and other applicable corporate, regulatory and other third-party approvals. No assurances can be given that the parties will successfully close the Transaction on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated or at all. 

Antev is a clinical stage biotech company, developing Teverelix, a next generation GnRH antagonist, as first in market product for cardiovascular high-risk prostate cancer patients and patients with first acute urinary retention (AURr) episodes due to enlarged prostate.

The foregoing description of the Definitive Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Definitive Agreement.
