Revenue Financing for the Life Sciences
Leveraging deep scientific and commercial expertise to deliver structured,
non-dilutive financing to the high-growth life sciences sector
Benefits to Life Sciences and Healthcare Companies:
✓ Timely access to non-dilutive growth capital that isn't debt
Royalty interest financing provides access to capital in exchange for future revenue without the risks associated with debt and serves as a complement to equity financing activities
✓ No impact to control or ownership of intellectual property
Royalty obligations created and managed by SVRN leaves intellectual property in the hands of the existing owner(s) who maintain control over the requisite R&D and commercialization activities
✓ Royalty terms and duration designed around capital needs
Scope, duration, and terms of the royalty obligation are established based on capital needs, allowing for narrow collateral on specific products or IP assets
Benefits to SVRN Investors:
✓ Access exclusive royalty assets uncorrelated with macro volatility
Scientific royalties are high-quality assets that generate predictable cash flows in sectors with inelastic demand such as medtech and biopharma, but have traditionally been accessible only for large institutional investors
✓ Fractional investment opportunities enable portfolio diversification
SVRN enables fractional ownership in scientific royalties allowing for flexible investment sizes for accredited investors and the opportunity to build a portfolio of cash-flowing assets that perform well in inflationary environments
✓ Receive distributions from productive intellectual property
SVRN allows investors to get direct exposure to revenue distributions from specific intellectual property in a manner that is distinct from traditional equity investment
Novel ways to maximize IP value
Expanding the reach of intellectual property using strategic licensing and partnerships can create the most potential paths to patients.
