Eyenovia considers strategic alternatives, including possible sale

Eyenovia announced its plans for accelerating development of its potential multi-billion dollar product for pediatric progressive myopia, MicroPine, and initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value. As part of this process, the Company plans to consider a wide range of options, including potential sale of assets of the Company, a sale of the Company, a merger, or other strategic action. In conjunction with the strategic process and focus on its late stage MicroPine asset, Eyenovia reiterated its immediate commercialization opportunities and corporate savings intended to reduce operating expenses while continuing to support meaningful value generation from the company’s two FDA-approved products. …”In the meantime, we will be evaluating strategic opportunities for MicroPine with organizations that have existing capabilities and infrastructure necessary to fully capitalize on this large opportunity. Additionally, we continue to make significant progress advancing our commercialization strategy, with Mydcombi and Avenova currently being sold through our targeted sales force, and clobetasol to be commercially launched as soon as this summer.”…”However, we believe this progress, and the broader potential of MicroPine, which will be back in our hands in a matter of weeks, has been underrecognized and underappreciated by the financial markets. As a result, while we remain intently focused on laying a foundation for accelerating sales growth in 2025, we are in parallel reducing costs in areas that do not impact our ability to deliver on our core strategy and exploring a possible transaction or transactions that could generate capital or otherwise enhance value for our shareholders, who remain very supportive. I look forward to evaluating a comprehensive variety of alternatives with my fellow Board members in the coming weeks.” …Eyenovia is in the process of engaging with investment banks to assist with the evaluation. There can be no assurance that this process will result in the company entering or completing any transaction. Eyenovia does not intend to make any further disclosures regarding the strategic review process unless and until a specific course of action is approved.
