3.    Discontinued Operations

On November 3, 2022, the Company announced it is seeking to divest its contract development and manufacturing organization (iBio CDMO) in order to complete its transformation into an antibody discovery and development company. In conjunction with the divestment, the Company commenced a workforce reduction of approximately 60% of the current Company staffing levels (a reduction of approximately 69 positions). The Company substantially completed the employee reduction by January 2, 2023. Through the process of seeking to divest its contract development and manufacturing organization, on February 10, 2023, the Company entered into an Auction Sale Agreement (the “Auction Sale Agreement”) with Holland Industrial Group, together with Federal Equipment Company and Capital Recovery Group LLC (collectively, the “Auctioneers”) for the sale at public auction of equipment and other tangible personal property (the “Equipment”) located at the Facility. The Auctioneers guaranteed an amount of gross proceeds from the sale of the equipment of $2.1 million, which was paid to the Company on February 17, 2023. The auction, which commenced on March 24, 2023 and concluded on March 30, 2023, resulted in total proceeds of approximately $2.9 million. In accordance with the Auction Sale Agreement, the Company received 80% of the excess proceeds, after Holland Industrial Group’s $0.2 million fee.  Total proceeds received in fiscal year 2023 were approximately $2.6 million.

On May 17, 2024, iBio CDMO entered into a purchase and sale agreement, dated as of May 17, 2024 (the “2024 Purchase and Sale Agreement”) with The Board of Regents of the Texas A&M University System (“The Board of Regents”) pursuant to which iBio CDMO agreed to terminate the Ground Lease Agreement, related to the Land and to sell to The Board of Regents the Property.

Additionally, on May 17, 2024, iBio CDMO, the Company and Woodforest entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) which provided that iBio CDMO would pay to Woodforest the proceeds of the sale of the Property under the 2024 Purchase and Sale Agreement when received, determine in consultation with Woodforest the remaining balance due under the Credit Agreement (the “Indebtedness Deficiency Amount”) and thereafter the Company issued to Woodforest a pre-funded warrant (“Pre-Funded Warrant”).  (See Note 14 – Debt for more information.)

On May 31, 2024, in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement in consideration of the payment in full of all Obligations (as such term is defined under the Credit Agreement (a) iBio CDMO paid to Woodforest (i) $8,500,000, which it received from the sale of the Property under the 2024 Purchase and Sale Agreement, and (ii) approximately $915,000 from restricted cash which had previously been held by Woodforest, and (b) the Company issued a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 1,560,570 shares of its common stock to Woodforest. The Pre-Funded Warrant expires upon full exercise thereof and is exercisable at a nominal exercise price equal to $0.0001 per share.

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty dated November 1, 2021 and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) were terminated and Woodforest released the Company and iBio CDMO from any and all claims, debts, liabilities or causes of action it may have against them prior to May 31, 2024, and the Company and iBio CDMO released Woodforest and its related parties from any and all claims, debts, liabilities or causes of action it may have against them prior to May 31, 2024.

The Company incurred pre-tax charges of approximately $1.9 million in fiscal year 2023 for the employee reduction which consisted of severance obligations, continuation of salaries and benefits over a 60-day transitional period during which impacted employees remained employed but were not expected to provide active service, and other customary employee benefit payments in connection with an employee reduction. The Company further recorded a charge in discontinued operations for approximately $35.7 million in fiscal year 2023, of which approximately $17.9 million was the result of a fixed asset impairment charge (see Note 11 – Fixed Assets for more information), approximately $4.9 million to write down inventory to its net realizable value, approximately $7.5 million of personnel costs including severance, approximately $0.9 million of interest related to the term note payable, and the balance related to operational costs related to winding down the CDMO business.

During fiscal year 2024, the Company recorded an additional fixed asset impairment charge of $3.1 million, a loss on the sale of the Facility of approximately $4.8 million and a gain on the extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.8 million

in discontinued operations. (See Note 5 – Financial Instruments, Note 11 – Fixed Assets and Note 14 – Debt for more information.)
