INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 6-K

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

On June 15, 2026, Alvotech (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc., Jefferies LLC and Evercore Group L.L.C. as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), relating to a public offering (the “Offering”) by the Company of 22,666,667 ordinary shares of the Company, nominal value $0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), at a public offering price of $3.75 per share. In addition, the Company has also granted the Underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase an additional 3,400,000 ordinary shares of the Company at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions, which was exercised by the Underwriters in full on June 16, 2026.

 

The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Ordinary Shares in the Offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, will be approximately $91.20 million, including the full exercise by the Underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares.

 

The Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-275111) filed on October 20, 2023 and declared effective on October 30, 2023, as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement and a final prospectus supplement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 15, 2026 and June 16, 2026, respectively. The Offering is expected to close on June 17, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

 

On June 15, 2026 and June 16, 2026, the Company issued press releases announcing the launch and pricing of the Offering, respectively. A copy of these press releases are filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto and are incorporated by reference herein.

 

In the Underwriting Agreement, the Company makes customary representations, warranties and covenants and customary conditions to closing and also agrees to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments that the Underwriters may be required to make because of such liabilities and other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Underwriting Agreement. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company, its officers, directors and certain of its stockholders agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions, for a period ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus supplement filed with the SEC in connection with the Offering pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act without first obtaining the written consent of BofA Securities, Inc., Jefferies LLC and Evercore Group L.L.C.

 

The foregoing is only a brief description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement that is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

 

The legal opinion of Arendt & Medernach SA relating to the Ordinary Shares is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.

 

Subscription Agreements

 

On June 16, 2026, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the “PIPE Agreements”) with certain investors that are professional clients or eligible counterparties in the European Economic Area falling within Article 1(4) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the investors in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) an aggregate of 17,826,666 Ordinary Shares. The purchase price per Ordinary Share being sold in the Private Placement will be equal to the public offering price per share in the Offering. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Private Placement will be approximately $66.85 million, before deducting transaction-related expenses payable by the Company.

 

Consummation of the Private Placement is conditioned on the closing of the Offering and the satisfaction of certain other customary conditions, and is expected to occur within seven business days following the closing of the Offering. The consummation of the Offering is not contingent on the consummation of the Private Placement.

 

Pursuant to one of the PIPE Agreements, the Company has granted registration rights to one investor in the Private Placement (the “Registration Rights Investor”). Specifically, the Registration Rights Investor may, at any time and from time to time, make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of its subscription shares on any available form of registration statement (a “Demand Registration”), including by way of an underwritten offering with underwriters selected by the Registration Rights Investor and reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company is obligated, using its reasonable best efforts and as expeditiously as possible after receipt of such demand, to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement

 

covering the resale of the shares and to keep such registration statement effective until all such shares have been disposed of or withdrawn. The Company is not obligated to effect more than two (2) Demand Registrations in total. The Company has the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to 60 days in total, or 30 consecutive days, in any 12-month period if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that effecting the registration at that time would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with a Demand Registration are to be borne by the Company. The Company has also agreed to provide certain customary indemnifications to the Registration Rights Investor.

 

The foregoing description of the PIPE Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of PIPE Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Copies of the press releases announcing the commencement and pricing of the Offering and the Private Placement are furnished as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Supplemental Risk Factor

 

The following risk factor is provided to supplement the Company’s risk factors previously disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

We received Complete Response Letters from the FDA on our Biologics License Applications for AVT03, AVT05, and AVT06, and if our resubmission of our BLAs for AVT03, AVT05, and AVT06 is not approved in accordance with our expected timeframe, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

 

In January 2025, the FDA accepted our BLA for AVT05 as a proposed biosimilar to Simponi / Simponi Aria (golimumab) for the treatment of patients with inflammatory conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and ulcerative colitis.

 

In February 2025, the FDA accepted our BLA for AVT06 as a proposed biosimilar to Eylea (aflibercept) for the treatment of patients with neovascular (wet) age related macular degeneration (AMD), macular edema, and diabetic retinopathy.

 

In March 2025, the FDA accepted our partner’s BLA for AVT03 as a proposed biosimilar to Prolia (denosumab) for the treatment of osteoporosis in women after menopause who are at high risk for bone fracture and Xgeva (denosumab) a prescription biologic medicine used to prevent fracture, spinal cord compression, or the need for radiation or surgery to bone in patients with multiple myeloma and in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors.

 

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we and our partner received CRLs from the FDA regarding, respectively, the BLAs for AVT05, AVT06, and AVT03. The CRLs all stated that the FDA had identified deficiencies related to our Reykjavik manufacturing facility following the FDA’s pre license inspection in July 2025, which must be satisfactorily resolved before these BLAs may be approved. The FDA did not identify any other deficiencies with the applications.

 

On June 4, 2026, we announced that we had resubmitted our BLAs for AVT05 and AVT06. Prior to approval of such BLAs, the FDA may decide to re-inspect our Reykjavik manufacturing facility. If the FDA re-inspects our facility and does not agree with our assessment that the previously identified deficiencies have been adequately resolved, or were to identify additional deficiencies, the approval of AVT05 and AVT06 in the United Sates may be further delayed, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations and may cause the market price of our securities to decline.
