Oslo, June 12, 2017
As previously communicated, the biopharmaceutical division engaged a team of international industry experts to propose an updated development plan and strategic partnership assessment. The team has been in dialogue with several potential partners and the response has been positive. However, it has not been possible to conclude a strategic partnership on acceptable terms.
As the current agreement with the team of industry experts expired at the end of May, various alternatives have been considered by management including engaging advisors to explore market opportunities or winding down the activities. Based on this review, it has been decided to wind down the activities. All employees have been informed and steps are being taken to stop all further activities and secure documentation related to the intellectual property rights. The book value of the intangible assets of NOK 120 million will be expensed in addition to a restructuring provision of NOK 5 million in Q2 2017.
After this restructuring, Solon Eiendom will be a pure residential real estate developer.
