In the third quarter of 2007, NPS sold its rights to the PREOTACT royalty to Drug Royalty Corporation for $50 million up-front with an additional $25 million to be paid upon the achievement of certain revenue milestones. Although the sale is non recourse, under U.S. generally accepted accounting pronouncements this transaction will be treated as debt. NPS also issued $100 million of non recourse Sensipar backed B bonds, and issued $50 million of new 5.75% convertible debt due 2014. In the third quarter, NPS repurchased $20.2 million of 3% Convertible Notes due 2008 for $19.5 million.
As of September 30, 2007, the company had 46.4 million shares outstanding and $302.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities as compared to $146.2 million at December 31, 2006.
