Regeneron Pharmaceuticals expects to record an acquired in-process research-and-development charge of approximately $83 million in the third quarter.
The pre-tax charge stems from an $80 million up-front payment made to Hansoh Pharmaceuticals Group under the companies' previously disclosed licensing agreement, according to a Monday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Regeneron in June signed a licensing agreement with Hansoh, paying the company to develop and sell its weight loss therapy outside of China.
The pharmaceutical company said Monday the charge is expected to ding earnings and adjusted earnings each by about 68 cents a share during the third quarter. The company noted that it hasn't yet finalized its third-quarter results, which are expected to be released before the opening bell on Oct. 28.
