Scilex Holding Co Stock Price, News & Analysis

Scilex Holding Company (Nasdaq: SCLX) has announced that its board of directors has authorized management to explore ways to maximize the value of its wholly owned subsidiary, Scilex Pharmaceuticals. This includes potentially conducting a spinoff or public listing of Scilex Pharma securities in markets outside the U.S., such as Hong Kong. The company believes that Scilex Pharma's potential value may exceed Scilex Holding Company's current valuation.

Scilex Pharma has three FDA-approved commercial products in the market:

• ZTlido®: A lidocaine topical system for neuropathic pain relief
• ELYXYB®: An oral solution for acute migraine treatment
