AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc. (AVEO, Financial) filed Annual Report for the period ended 2010-12-31.
Aveo Pharmaceuticals Inc. has a market cap of $517.7 million; its shares were traded at around $14.54 with and P/S ratio of 11.6.
Under the collaboration agreement, we received an initial cash payment of $125 million, comprised of a $75 million license fee and $50 million in research and development funding. We expect to retain net proceeds of approximately $96 million of the initial cash payment from Astellas, after payments to KHK and strategic, legal and financial advisors. We are also eligible to receive from Astellas an aggregate of approximately $1.3 billion in potential milestone payments relating to development and commercialization milestones for tivozanib. In addition, if tivozanib is successfully developed and launched in the royalty territory, Astellas will be required to pay to us tiered, double digit royalties on net sales of tivozanib in the royalty territory, if any, subject to offsets under certain circumstances. We are required to pay to KHK a specified percentage of milestones and royalties we may receive from Astellas in connection with Astellas development and commercialization activities in Europe and the royalty territory.
Despite the various challenges encountered with the approved VEGF receptor inhibitors, sales of VEGF pathway inhibitor drugs have been estimated to exceed over $10 billion worldwide in 2010, based on quarterly and annual reports made publicly available by companies marketing such drugs. According to EvaluatePharma® consensus forecasts from equity research analysts, drugs targeting angiogenesis are projected to have sales of more than $14 billion by 2014. Currently approved VEGF pathway inhibitors include Avastin® (bevacizumab), an antibody that blocks only one of the ligands for the VEGF receptors, and Nexavar® (sorafenib), Sutent® (sunitinib) and Votrient® (pazopanib), each of which are small molecule drugs that target the VEGF receptors, but that also bind to a number of other targets with varying potency.
