Under the agreement, Moberg Pharma is eligible to receive milestones of up to USD 50 million contingent on development and commercial success, as well as supply fees including royalties.
- In September, the Board of Directors proposed an extraordinary payment to the shareholders of SEK 46.50 per share, an increase from the previously announced preliminary amount of SEK 43–45 per ordinary share. As planned, the payment will be made through an automatic redemption procedure in November 2019.
- The Board of Directors has resolved to prepay in full the loan of USD 2.5 million incurred from the purchaser in connection with the divestment of the company's OTC business last spring, since the Board of Directors has determined that the loan is no longer necessary to fund the finalization of the clinical program for MOB‐015.
- In July 2019, 488,905 ordinary shares were issued after the exercise of warrants under Moberg Pharma's share‐based incentive program.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE FIRST QUARTER

- Mark Beveridge, VP Finance, is reassuming responsibility for the finance function and replacing Sarah Hellerfelt, who is leaving her position as CFO of the company.
- The Annual General Meeting resolved on October 30 to pay the shareholders SEK 46.50 per share through an automatic redemption procedure, in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal.

STATEMENT FROM THE CEO
The Phase 3 program for MOB‐015 is on schedule. We expect data from the North American study in December, followed by data from the European study in the second quarter of 2020. At the same time, the commercialization preparations for MOB‐ 015 are underway and license agreements have now been signed for more key markets, most recently Japan and the Republic of Korea, to complement previous agreements in Europe and Canada.
The work on MOB‐015 is progressing as planned with a focus on the two clinical Phase 3 studies and continued commercialization preparations. All the patients in North America have completed the study and we are expecting the data in December. In Europe, around 70% of patients have now completed the study, with the data expected in the second quarter of 2020. The Phase 3 program comprises a total of 817 patients, including 365 patients randomized at 32 clinics in the US and Canada as well as 452 patients in Europe.
In September, Moberg Pharma signed a license agreement granting Taisho Pharmaceutical exclusive rights to MOB‐015 in Japan, a market that in 2018 amounted to USD 290 million with annual growth of more than 8%. Moberg Pharma will provide know‐how and documentation from the international development program for MOB‐015, and after completion of registration will be responsible for production, while Taisho will fund development and registration activities in Japan and take responsibility for marketing, distribution and sales. Moberg Pharma is eligible to receive up to USD 50 million in milestone payments, including USD 5 million paid at signing. The majority of the milestone payments are contingent on sales targets, with the balance contingent on development and regulatory milestones. Moberg Pharma will also receive supply fees including royalties.
In October, a distribution agreement for MOB‐015 was signed in the Republic of Korea, this time with DongKoo, the market leader in dermatology, with excellent coverage of dermatology clinics. The Korean market for topical drugs for onychomycosis amounts to USD 40 million, and over 90% of prescriptions are written by the clinics. The agreement gives DongKoo exclusive rights to market and sell MOB‐015 in the Republic of Korea. Moberg Pharma assumes production and supply responsibility.
This means that two more agreements for MOB‐015 are in place in addition to the previous agreements with Cipher Pharmaceuticals for Canada and the Consumer Health division of Bayer AG, a world leader in OTC fungus treatments with the brand Canesten, for Europe. The aim is to repeat the journey we took with Kerasal Nail®, where we combined direct sales in the US with strategic collaborations in a number of major regions. The most important markets for MOB‐015 are expected to the US, the EU, Japan, Canada and China, all with patent protection until 2032.
With regard to our other drug candidate, BUPI, discussions are underway with potential new partners in North America and Europe.
On October 30, the Annual General Meeting resolved in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal on an extraordinary distribution to the shareholders of SEK 46.50 per share through a share redemption in November 2019. With SEK 893 million in cash reserves as at September 30, the company has sufficient funds to implement the share redemption as planned and to finalize the clinical program for MOB‐015. Moberg Pharma 2.0 remains fully dedicated to the goal of creating the future market leader in the treatment of nail fungus.
Anna Ljung, CEO of Moberg Pharma
ABOUT MOBERG PHARMA
Moberg Pharma develops and commercializes medical products that relieve pain and skin conditions, especially nail fungus. The company is focused as of April 1, 2019 on the development and commercialization of pipeline assets with a combined annual peak sales potential of USD 350–700 million. The OTC business was divested in the first quarter of 2019 in favor of a clinical pipeline consisting of late stage drug candidates with the potential to significantly exceed the value of the divested portfolio. The divestment enabled shareholders to recognize a compelling value for both components of the business. They will receive a large distribution in November 2019 while also retaining the potential in the development projects.
MOB‐015 is a next‐generation treatment of onychomycosis (nail fungus) and BUPI is a novel treatment for oral pain relief in association with inflammation and ulceration of the oral mucous membranes (oral mucositis or OM), a serious complication of cancer treatment). Both drugs have demonstrated strong Phase 2 results which indicate that they have the potential to become market leaders in their respective niches. Two parallel Phase 3 studies for MOB‐015 are underway with topline results expected in December 2019 and the second quarter of 2020, and with license agreements signed for a number of major markets. We estimate the sales potential for MOB‐015 at USD 250–500 million, with most of the sales expected to come from the high‐priced US prescription drug market. This is in addition to BUPI, with an estimated annual sales potential of USD 100‐ 200 million.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
REVENUES AND PROFIT
Net sales amounted to SEK 47.8 M (15.6) for the period. Revenue relates to the initial milestone of MUSD 5 received in connection with the agreement with Taisho for MOB‐015 in Japan. For the comparison period, revenue relates to a milestone of EUR 1.5 from the agreement with Bayer AG for MOB‐015 in Europe.
Moberg Pharma's operations consist of research and development, business development and administrative functions. The majority of development expenditure incurred is directly attributable to the clinical phase‐3 studies in the development project for MOB‐015, which is capitalized. The largest expense items for the period consist of business development and administration expenses of SEK 6.5 million (6.8), followed by research and development expenses of SEK 2.6 million (3.6). Profit for the period from continuing operations also include the provision of services related to an agreement on transitional services that was included in the sale of the OTC business. Other operating income include the invoicing for costs related to transition services.
The comparative figures in the consolidated income statement show the impact on earnings from the divested OTC operations as a separate item in the consolidated financials. For the Parent Company, amounts reported in the income statement have not been separated for discontinued operations. A profit and loss account for discontinued operations is presented in Note 2.
CASHFLOW
Cash flow before changes in working capital was 41.8 (599.2). Operating receivables increased by SEK 41.5 million as revenue from the milestone with Taisho is expected to be paid in the next quarter. Operating liabilities decreased as the opening balance included payments for shares in advance (after exercise of warrants) of MSEK 26, which is now translated as financing activities. As a result, cash flow from operating activities was SEK ‐29.3 million (25.5). Cash flow from investing activities was SEK ‐21.9 million (1,413.9), of which SEK ‐18 million relates to investments in intangible assets and SEK ‐4 million is related to the final adjustment of net working capital from the sale of the OTC business. Total change in cash and cash equivalents during the quarter was SEK ‐25.9 million (1,485.8). Cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 893.2 million (SEK 1,596.9 million) at the end of the period
INVESTMENTS
Investments in intangible assets mainly relate to capitalized expenses for development work of SEK 18.2 million (18.6). The company has two late‐stage development projects that are capitalized, MOB‐015 and BUPI. The bulk of monies spent relate to MOB‐015.

LIABILITIES
In connection with the divestment of the commercial portfolio in March 2019, the buyer provided financing for a loan of USD 2.5 million. The loan carries a PIK interest rate of 3 months LIBOR + 5.50%. In September, it was announced that the Board of Directors had decided to repay the loan in full prior to maturity, as the Board considers that the loan is no longer necessary to support financing MOB‐015 operations. The loan was repaid after the end of the quarter on October 31, 2019.
CHANGES IN EQUITY
SHARES
Share capital at the end of the period was SEK 18,853,510 (1,770,376), where the total number of shares outstanding was 18,192,667 ordinary shares (17,703,762) and 660,843 Series B shares (0) with a quotient value of SEK 0.10. Moberg Pharma holds 184,746 (263,000) repurchased own shares at the end of the period.
In July 2019, the number of shares and votes increased as a result of 488,905 ordinary shares having been issued following the exercise of warrants within the framework of Moberg Pharma's share‐related incentive program. The OTC divestment resulted in the vesting of a proportion of outstanding incentive programs pro rata based on the date of the divestment, 29 March 2019. Exercise of the warrants resulted in the number of shares and votes increasing by 488,905 from 18,364,605 to 18,853,510.
SHARE‐BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
As of September 30, 2019, the number of outstanding instruments was 175,746 employee stock warrants and 80,022 performance share units. If all employee stock warrants were exercised, the total number of shares would increase by 175,746. Performance share units are issued and held in trust, where the actual number of shares that can be transferred varies between 0 and 100% depending on share price development. The exercise price for the option programs varies between SEK 42.97 and SEK 65.47, and the performance share units are linked to a share price from SEK 35.00. 1 For detailed information on the incentive programs, see the 2019 Annual Report.

OTHER OUTSTANDING INSTRUMENTS

OTHER INFORMATION
ORGANIZATION
Per September 30, 2019, the Moberg Pharma Group had 14 employees, of whom 93% were women. All employees are employed by the parent company.
RISK FACTORS
Commercialization and development of pharmaceuticals are capital‐intensive activities exposed to significant risks. Risk factors considered of particular significance for Moberg Pharma's future development are linked to the results of clinical trials, regulatory actions, patents and trademarks, key personnel, sensitivity to economic fluctuations, future capital requirements, and financial risk factors. A description of these risks can be found in the company's 2019 Annual Report on page 19.
OUTLOOK
Moberg Pharma's goal is to create value and provide attractive shareholder returns through the successful commercialization of its pipeline assets.
In 2019/2020, the focus is on advancing the company's phase 3 development programs and to continue commercialization preparations to maximize value and create future growth. Moberg Pharma will utilize the cash flow from the divestment of the commercial operations to provide a distribution to shareholders through a redemption of shares while retaining sufficient capital, taking into account expected revenues, to complete the ongoing Phase 3 studies for MOB‐015.
It is the view of the Board of Directors and executive management that the company has sufficient funds, taking into account the planned OTC‐dividend, to complete the ongoing clinical activities.
DISTRIBUTION OF SEK 46.50 PER ORDINARY SHARE
In March 2019, the OTC business was divested for a cash consideration of USD 155 million, adjusted for working capital. The company intends to use the cash consideration to, among other things, distribute SEK 46.50 per ordinary share after the Annual General Meeting on October 30, 2019.
The Annual General Meeting for the abbreviated fiscal year January 1 – June 30, 2019, which was held on October 30, 2019, has resolved on an extraordinary distribution to the shareholders of Moberg Pharma in the form of an automatic redemption. The purchaser of the OTC business will not be entitled to the distribution. An information brochure on the proposed redemption procedure is available (Swedish only) on the company's website.
By way of the automatic redemption, each ordinary share is split into one ordinary share and one redemption share. The redemption share will then automatically be redeemed for SEK 46.50 per share. The redemption shares will also be listed for trading on Nasdaq Stockholm. Accordingly, shareholders can choose to either (a) retain their redemption shares and receive the redemption payment, or (b) sell their redemption shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, which for shareholders resident outside of Sweden may be favorable from a tax perspective. Payment for the redemption shares is expected around November 26, 2019.
How it works
BEFORE AFTER
Following the Annual General Meeting's resolution on October 30, 2019, each ordinary share is split into two shares, one of which is called an ordinary redemption share.
The ordinary redemption shares are then automatically redeemed for SEK 46.50 per ordinary redemption share.
Illustrative example
You are registered on the record date of the share split as owning 100 ordinary shares. The assumed share price in the example is SEK 65 per ordinary share. Your ordinary shares are therefore worth:
100 ordinary shares x SEK 65 = SEK 6,500
When the redemption procedure begins, each ordinary share will be split into in one ordinary share and one ordinary redemption share. The theoretical price of the ordinary shares after the split is estimated at SEK 18.50, which is the difference between the assumed share price before the split and the value of the ordinary redemption share (SEK 65 ‐ SEK 46.50). Your shareholding then looks like this:
- 100 ordinary shares x SEK 18.50 = SEK 1,850
- 100 ordinary redemption shares x SEK 46.50 = SEK 4,650
Moberg Pharma will then automatically redeem your ordinary redemption shares for SEK 46.50 in cash per ordinary redemption share. This requires no action on your part as a shareholder. After the redemption procedure, you will have:
- 100 ordinary shares x SEK 18.50 = SEK 1,850
- Cash payment for 100 ordinary redemption shares x SEK 46.50 = SEK 4,650
You now have the same number of ordinary shares that you did before the redemption procedure and have received SEK 46.50 in cash for each redeemed ordinary redemption share.
The ordinary redemption shares will be traded on Nasdaq Stockholm in the period November 6 – November 19, 2019 and you as a holder of ordinary redemption shares can then sell them.
This example does not take into account any tax effects that may arise in connection with the redemption or changes in the share price after the record date.

NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLES
The interim report was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The consolidated financial statements were, like the annual accounts for 2019, prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The parent company financial statements were prepared in accordance with Swedish Annual Accounts Act and Recommendation RFR 2 of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board, Financial Statements for Legal Entities.
Amounts are presented in Swedish kronor and rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated. Rounding to the nearest thousand may mean that certain amounts do not match when added up. MSEK stands for million Swedish kronor. Amounts and figures in parentheses are comparative figures from the previous year.
NOTE 2 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On February 12, 2019, the company announced that it had entered into an agreement to divest its subsidiaries MPJ OTC AB and Moberg Pharma North America LLC. According to the terms of the agreement, the parent company's OTC business was transferred to the subsidiary MPJ OTC AB prior to the transaction. The divested business comprises the company's entire commercial operations and the transaction is thus reported as discontinued operations. The transaction was completed on March 29,2019 for a total cash consideration of SEK 1,432.8 million, which resulted in a net gain of SEK 561 million after transaction costs. The effect from the divestment on the total profit was SEK 501 million.
