The company's cash held at SVB is substantially less than 1% of its total cash balance, and amounts not covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is approximately $1 million.

The company expects to recover most of the cash on deposit at SVB through a combination of FDIC insurance coverage and other compensation actions. Everest Medicines has received full upfront payment of $280 million from Immunomedics, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gilead Sciences, Inc., for the transaction around Trodelvy® rights in Asia territories, and none of the upfront payment is deposited at SVB.

Everest Medicines has a strong balance sheet of approximately $430 million of cash. The Company adopts a robust process to diversify assets across multiple financial institutions and believes that the situation at SVB has minimal impact on the company's business.
