Item 1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreement
On August 2, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), TG Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company" or the “Borrower”) entered into a term loan facility of $250 million (the “Initial Term Loan”) with Blue Owl Capital Corporation, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), HealthCare Royalty and Blue Owl Capital under the Financing Agreement (as defined below). The Initial Term Loan is governed by a financing agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Financing Agreement”), which provides for (i) a single draw of the Initial Term Loan on the Closing Date and (ii) an uncommitted additional facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million.
The Initial Term Loan will mature on August 2, 2029 (the “Term Loan Maturity Date”). The Initial Term Loan accrues interest at a per annum rate of interest equal to an applicable margin plus, at the Borrower’s option, either (a) at a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the prime rate published by the Wall Street Journal, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) Term SOFR, plus 1.00% or (b) Term SOFR, which, shall be no less than 1.00%. The applicable margin for borrowings of the Initial Term Loan is determined on a quarterly basis by reference to a pricing grid based on the achievement of US Net Sales (as defined in the Financing Agreement) for the most recently completed four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (as defined in the Financing Agreement). The pricing grid commences at 5.50% for SOFR borrowings and 4.50% for base rate borrowings and is subject to a 25 basis point step-down upon achievement of a specified US Net Sales threshold. The Initial Term Loan requires scheduled quarterly amortization payments, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2028, in an amount equal to $12.5 million, with the balance due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date; provided that such amortization payments may be deferred to the Term Loan Maturity Date upon the achievement of a Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Financing Agreement) that is less than or equal to an agreed threshold.
The Initial Term Loan is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and certain subsidiaries of the Borrower as guarantors (collectively, the “Loan Parties”) and contains customary covenants and representations.
The events of default under the Financing Agreement are customary for financings of this type. If an event of default occurs, the Administrative Agent is entitled to take enforcement action, including acceleration of amounts due under the Financing Agreement.
The description of the Financing Agreement contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of Financing Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to a subsequent periodic report of the Company
Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
On the Closing Date, the Company repaid all outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees under the Amended Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2023 (as amended to date, the “Existing Loan Agreement”), by and among the Company and TG Biologics Inc., as borrowers, and Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”) (such repayment, the “Refinancing”), which Refinancing was funded with the proceeds from the Initial Term Loan. The Existing Loan Agreement was effectively terminated and all guarantees and liens granted thereunder were released on the Closing Date upon the consummation of the Refinancing.
Item 2.2. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 6, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. A copy of such press release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information included in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including Exhibit 99.1 hereto), shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made by the Company under the Exchange Act or Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events
Share Repurchase Plan
On August 6, 2024, the Company announced that the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company had authorized and approved a share repurchase program for up to $100 million of the currently outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the share repurchase program, the Company intends to repurchase shares through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block purchases or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act.
The Board also authorized the Company to enter into written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows a company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading blackout periods or pursuant to insider trading laws. Under any Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, the Company’s third-party broker, subject to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations regarding certain price, market, volume and timing constraints, would have authority to purchase the Company’s common stock in accordance with the terms of the plan. The Company may from time to time enter into Rule 10b5-1 trading plans to facilitate the repurchase of its common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program.
The Company cannot predict when or if it will repurchase any shares of common stock as such stock repurchase program will depend on a number of factors, including constraints specified in any Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, price, general business and market conditions and alternative investment opportunities. Information regarding share repurchases will be available in the Company’s periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the SEC as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.
10-K/A Filing
In July of 2024, the Company identified an error related to the expense recognition of a single restricted stock grant in 2021 leading to an understatement of non-cash compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022. The error was determined to be immaterial to all impacted periods.
Although the error was deemed to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the impacted periods, on August 2, 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company, after discussion with Company management and KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the error was the result of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (the “Material Weakness”) as of December 31, 2023 as it related to controls over non-routine share based payment awards.
Therefore, the Company’s report regarding the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024 and the statements within the Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures regarding their effectiveness included in Item 9A, will be updated to reflect this determination and should not be relied upon until updated.
Similarly, KPMG’s opinion relating to the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 included in the 2023 Annual Report will be updated and should not be relied upon until updated.
Importantly, KPMG has not withdrawn its audit report on the consolidated financial statements included in the 2023 Annual Report, which can still be relied upon.
In summary, there will be no financial changes to the 2023 Annual Report. The Company will submit a 10-K/A to its 2023 Annual Report to reflect the foregoing updated reports and will describe the Company’s plans to remediate the deficiencies in its internal control over financial reporting that led to the error.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This filing contains forward looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. For those statements, we claim protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements in this filing include information regarding purchases by the Company of its common stock pursuant to any share repurchase program or Rule 10b5-1 trading plan and the Company’s expectations as to the anticipated timing of the filing of the Company’s amended Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 as well as the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Factors that may cause future results to differ materially from management’s current expectations include, among other things, changes in price and volume and the volatility of the Company’s common stock; adverse developments affecting prices and trading of exchange-traded securities, including securities listed on Nasdaq; unexpected or otherwise unplanned or alternative requirements with respect to the capital investments of the Company; that the filing of the amended Form 10-K and the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 may take longer than expected; and remediation of the material weakness may not be effected in a timely manner. Any forward-looking statements set forth in this filing speak only as of the date of this filing. We do not undertake to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date hereof.

|
|
●
|
License, milestone, royalty and other revenue: License, milestone, royalty and other revenue was approximately $0.9 million and $13.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to less than $0.1 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. License, milestone, royalty and other revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 is predominantly comprised of a $12.5 million milestone payment under the Neuraxpharm Commercialization Agreement for the first key market commercial launch of BRIUMVI in the European Union (EU) which occurred in the first quarter of 2024.
|
|
●
|
R&D Expenses: Total research and development (R&D) expense was approximately $17.6 million and $50.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $28.1 million and $44.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease in R&D expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to reduced clinical trial related expense and license milestones incurred during the period ended June 30, 2024. The increase in R&D expense during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to license and milestone expense related to the license agreement with Precision BioSciences, Inc., as well as additional manufacturing and development costs incurred in connection with our ublituximab subcutaneous development work during the period.

|
●
|
SG&A Expenses: Total selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was approximately $38.8 million and $73.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $30.7 million and $58.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The increase in both periods was primarily due to the scale-up of the BRIUMVI commercial launch, including personnel.
|
|
●
|
Net Income (Loss): Net income (loss) was $6.9 million and $(3.8) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to a net loss of $(47.6) million and $(86.8) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
|
|
●
|
Cash Position and Financial Guidance: Cash, cash equivalents and investment securities were $217.3 million as of June 30, 2024, which excludes any increase in cash associated with the new $250 million credit facility. We anticipate that our cash, cash equivalents and investment securities as of June 30, 2024, combined with the projected revenues from BRIUMVI, will be sufficient to fund our business based on our current operating plan.

ABOUT BRIUMVI® (ublituximab-xiiy) 150 mg/6 mL Injection for IV
BRIUMVI is a novel monoclonal antibody that targets a unique epitope on CD20-expressing B-cells. Targeting CD20 using monoclonal antibodies has proven to be an important therapeutic approach for the management of autoimmune disorders, such as RMS. BRIUMVI is uniquely designed to lack certain sugar molecules normally expressed on the antibody. Removal of these sugar molecules, a process called glycoengineering, allows for efficient B-cell depletion at low doses.
BRIUMVI is indicated in the U.S. for the treatment of adults with RMS, including clinically isolated syndrome, relapsing-remitting disease, and active secondary progressive disease and in the EU and UK for the treatment of adult patients with RMS with active disease defined by clinical or imaging features.
A list of authorized specialty distributors can be found at www.briumvi.com.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Contraindications: BRIUMVI is contraindicated in patients with:
|
●
|
Active Hepatitis B Virus infection
|
|
●
|
A history of life-threatening infusion reaction to BRIUMVI
|
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Infusion Reactions: BRIUMVI can cause infusion reactions, which can include pyrexia, chills, headache, influenza-like illness, tachycardia, nausea, throat irritation, erythema, and an anaphylactic reaction. In MS clinical trials, the incidence of infusion reactions in BRIUMVI-treated patients who received infusion reaction-limiting premedication prior to each infusion was 48%, with the highest incidence within 24 hours of the first infusion. 0.6% of BRIUMVI-treated patients experienced infusion reactions that were serious, some requiring hospitalization.
Observe treated patients for infusion reactions during the infusion and for at least one hour after the completion of the first two infusions unless infusion reaction and/or hypersensitivity has been observed in association with the current or any prior infusion. Inform patients that infusion reactions can occur up to 24 hours after the infusion. Administer the recommended pre-medication to reduce the frequency and severity of infusion reactions. If life-threatening, stop the infusion immediately, permanently discontinue BRIUMVI, and administer appropriate supportive treatment. Less severe infusion reactions may involve temporarily stopping the infusion, reducing the infusion rate, and/or administering symptomatic treatment.
Infections: Serious, life-threatening or fatal, bacterial and viral infections have been reported in BRIUMVI-treated patients. In MS clinical trials, the overall rate of infections in BRIUMVI-treated patients was 56%, compared to 54% in teriflunomide-treated patients. The rate of serious infections was 5% compared to 3%, respectively. There were 3 infection-related deaths in BRIUMVI-treated patients. The most common infections in BRIUMVI-treated patients included upper respiratory tract infection (45%) and urinary tract infection (10%). Delay BRIUMVI administration in patients with an active infection until the infection is resolved.
Consider the potential for increased immunosuppressive effects when initiating BRIUMVI after immunosuppressive therapy or initiating an immunosuppressive therapy after BRIUMVI.
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Reactivation: HBV reactivation occurred in an MS patient treated with BRIUMVI in clinical trials. Fulminant hepatitis, hepatic failure, and death caused by HBV reactivation have occurred in patients treated with anti-CD20 antibodies. Perform HBV screening in all patients before initiation of treatment with BRIUMVI. Do not start treatment with BRIUMVI in patients with active HBV confirmed by positive results for HBsAg and anti-HB tests. For patients who are negative for surface antigen [HBsAg] and positive for HB core antibody [HBcAb+] or are carriers of HBV [HBsAg+], consult a liver disease expert before starting and during treatment.
Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML): Although no cases of PML have occurred in BRIUMVI-treated MS patients, JC virus infection resulting in PML has been observed in patients treated with other anti-CD20 antibodies and other MS therapies.
If PML is suspected, withhold BRIUMVI and perform an appropriate diagnostic evaluation. Typical symptoms associated with PML are diverse, progress over days to weeks, and include progressive weakness on one side of the body or clumsiness of limbs, disturbance of vision, and changes in thinking, memory, and orientation leading to confusion and personality changes.
MRI findings may be apparent before clinical signs or symptoms; monitoring for signs consistent with PML may be useful. Further investigate suspicious findings to allow for an early diagnosis of PML, if present. Following discontinuation of another MS medication associated with PML, lower PML-related mortality and morbidity have been reported in patients who were initially asymptomatic at diagnosis compared to patients who had characteristic clinical signs and symptoms at diagnosis.
If PML is confirmed, treatment with BRIUMVI should be discontinued.
Vaccinations: Administer all immunizations according to immunization guidelines: for live or live-attenuated vaccines, at least 4 weeks and, whenever possible, at least 2 weeks prior to initiation of BRIUMVI for non-live vaccines. BRIUMVI may interfere with the effectiveness of non-live vaccines. The safety of immunization with live or live-attenuated vaccines during or following administration of BRIUMVI has not been studied. Vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended during treatment and until B-cell repletion.
Vaccination of Infants Born to Mothers Treated with BRIUMVI During Pregnancy: In infants of mothers exposed to BRIUMVI during pregnancy, assess B-cell counts prior to administration of live or live-attenuated vaccines as measured by CD19+ B-cells. Depletion of B-cells in these infants may increase the risks from live or live-attenuated vaccines. Inactivated or non-live vaccines may be administered prior to B-cell recovery. Assessment of vaccine immune responses, including consultation with a qualified specialist, should be considered to determine whether a protective immune response was mounted.
Fetal Risk: Based on data from animal studies, BRIUMVI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Transient peripheral B-cell depletion and lymphocytopenia have been reported in infants born to mothers exposed to other anti-CD20 B-cell depleting antibodies during pregnancy. A pregnancy test is recommended in females of reproductive potential prior to each infusion. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during BRIUMVI treatment and for 6 months after the last dose.
Reduction in Immunoglobulins: As expected with any B-cell depleting therapy, decreased immunoglobulin levels were observed. Decrease in immunoglobulin M (IgM) was reported in 0.6% of BRIUMVI-treated patients, compared to none of the patients treated with teriflunomide in RMS clinical trials. Monitor the levels of quantitative serum immunoglobulins during treatment, especially in patients with opportunistic or recurrent infections, and after discontinuation of therapy, until B-cell repletion. Consider discontinuing BRIUMVI therapy if a patient with low immunoglobulins develops a serious opportunistic infection or recurrent infections, or if prolonged hypogammaglobulinemia requires treatment with intravenous immunoglobulins.
Most Common Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in RMS trials (incidence of at least 10%) were infusion reactions and upper respiratory tract infections.

Additional factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially include the following: the Company’s ability to maintain and continue to maintain a commercial infrastructure for BRIUMVI, and to successfully, or in the timeframe projected, market and sell BRIUMVI; the risk that trends in prescriptions are not maintained or that prescriptions are not filled; the failure to obtain and maintain payor coverage; the risk that HCP interest in BRIUMVI will not be sustained; the risk that momentum in sales for BRIUMVI will not build during the course of the year; the risk that the commercialization of BRIUMVI does not continue to exceed expectations; the risk that our current or future BRIUMVI revenue targets will not be achieved; the failure to obtain and maintain requisite regulatory approvals, including the risk that the Company fails to satisfy post-approval regulatory requirements, the potential for variation from the Company’s projections and estimates about the potential market for BRIUMVI due to a number of factors, including, further limitations that regulators may impose on the required labeling for BRIUMVI (such as modifications, resulting from safety signals that arise in the post-marketing setting or in the long-term extension study from the ULTIMATE I and II clinical trials); the Company’s ability to meet post-approval compliance obligations (on topics, including but not limited to product quality, product distribution and supply chain, pharmacovigilance, and sales and marketing); the Company’s reliance on third parties for manufacturing, distribution and supply, and other support functions for our clinical and commercial products, including BRIUMVI, and the ability of the Company and its manufacturers and suppliers to produce and deliver BRIUMVI to meet the market demand for BRIUMVI; potential regulatory challenges to the Company’s plans to seek marketing approval for the product in jurisdictions outside of the U.S.; the uncertainties inherent in research and development; the risk that any individual patient’s clinical experience in the post-marketing setting, or the aggregate patient experience in the post-marketing setting, may differ from that demonstrated in controlled clinical trials such as ULTIMATE I and II; the risk that the Company does not achieve its 2024 development pipeline anticipated milestones in the timeframe projected or at all, including the development of subcutaneous BRIUMVI, commencing a trial evaluating BRIUMVI in an autoimmune disease outside of MS, or commencing a trial evaluating azer-cel; our ability to initiate and execute the proposed share repurchase program; and general political, economic, and business conditions. Further discussion about these and other risks and uncertainties can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and in our other filings with the SEC.
