Theratechnologies (TSX: TH) (NASDAQ: THTX) has announced its Board of Directors' decision to evaluate a potential company sale through an open and non-exclusive process, following a proposal from Future Pak. The Special Committee, comprising independent and disinterested directors, will oversee the process and provide recommendations to the Board.
The company has expanded its advisory team, adding Raymond James as independent financial advisor and Norton Rose Fulbright as independent legal advisor, alongside existing advisors Barclays and Fasken. Theratechnologies emphasizes that normal operations will continue during these discussions, though there is no guarantee that talks with Future Pak or other parties will result in a transaction.
Soleus Capital, a major shareholder owning over 10% of Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX), has sent a critical letter to the company's Board of Directors regarding a potential acquisition offer. The letter addresses Future Pak, 's proposal to acquire the company at $3.51 per share, representing a substantial 163% premium over the April 10th closing price.
Soleus Capital expressed concerns that THTX's management and Board have been unresponsive to potential acquirers, potentially breaching their shareholder obligations. The investment firm strongly advocates for accepting the all-cash offer, arguing it would provide greater shareholder value compared to remaining independent or pursuing alternative combinations that might prioritize management retention over shareholder interests.
Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX) has responded to Future Pak's acquisition proposals and disclosed exclusive discussions with another potential acquiror. The company received two unsolicited non-binding proposals from Future Pak: first in August 2024 with a US$100 million closing cash consideration, which was rejected, and second in January 2025, which couldn't be entertained due to existing exclusivity agreements.
The company is currently in negotiations with a different Potential Acquiror who has completed extensive due diligence. If a definitive agreement is reached, it will include a 'go shop' provision allowing Theratechnologies to engage with other potential acquirors, including Future Pak, for a period.
A special committee of independent directors, supported by Barclays Capital as financial advisor and Fasken Martineau DuMoulin as legal advisor, has been formed to review the proposals.
Future Pak has submitted two formal proposals to acquire Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX), with the latest offering $3.51 to $4.50 per share. The proposal values the deal at up to $255 million, consisting of:
- $205 million in cash at closing
- Up to $50 million in contingent value rights (CVR), including 50% of annual EGRIFTA® franchise gross profit above $30 million for three years
- A $10 million milestone payment if EGRIFTA gross profit exceeds $125 million over three years
The offer represents a 164% to 238% premium over Theratechnologies' closing price of $1.33 as of April 10, 2025. Despite the significant premium and multiple proposals, Future Pak reports minimal engagement from Theratechnologies. The transaction has no financing contingency and is supported by Colbeck Capital Management.

The company updated its FY2025 guidance, projecting revenue between $80-83 million and adjusted EBITDA of $10-12 million, accounting for a one-time impact of $10-12 million revenue loss due to the EGRIFTA SV® supply disruption.
Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX) has received FDA approval for its Prior Approval Supplement (PAS) to the supplemental biologics license application (sBLA) for EGRIFTA SV®. This approval enables unrestricted distribution of EGRIFTA SV®, eliminating previous discretionary product release requirements.
EGRIFTA SV® is currently the only FDA-approved treatment for reducing excess abdominal fat in adults with HIV and lipodystrophy. The FDA has also recently approved a new F8 formulation, EGRIFTA WR™, which will replace EGRIFTA SV® and offers improved patient convenience.
The medication works as a growth hormone-releasing factor (GHRF) analog, stimulating the production and release of endogenous growth hormone. Common side effects include arthralgia, injection site reactions, pain in extremity, peripheral edema, and myalgia.
Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX) has scheduled its first quarter 2025 financial results announcement and business update for April 9, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. ET. The conference call will feature key executives including CEO Paul Lévesque, CFO Philippe Dubuc, Chief Medical Officer Christian Marsolais, and Global Commercial Officer John Leasure.

Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX) has received FDA approval for EGRIFTA WR™, an improved formulation of tesamorelin for treating excess visceral abdominal fat in adults with HIV and lipodystrophy. The new formulation requires weekly reconstitution instead of daily, with less than half the administration volume compared to the current EGRIFTA SV® version.
EGRIFTA WR™ will be supplied as four single-patient-use vials, each containing 11.6 mg of tesamorelin, sufficient for seven doses. The daily dose is 1.28 mg injected subcutaneously and can be stored at room temperature. The product is patent protected in the U.S. until 2033 and will be manufactured at a new U.S.-based contract drug manufacturing organization.
Common adverse reactions include arthralgia, injection site reactions, pain in extremity, peripheral edema, and myalgia. The new formulation has shown bioequivalence to the original F1 formulation of tesamorelin.
Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX) presented significant findings at the 2025 CROI conference regarding cardiovascular risk assessment in HIV patients. The Visceral Adiposity Measurement and Observation Study (VAMOS) revealed that Body Mass Index (BMI) alone is insufficient for evaluating cardiovascular (CV) risk in people with HIV (PWH).
Key findings from the 170-participant study showed that excess visceral abdominal fat (EVAF) is a important risk factor, with high prevalence even among those with normal BMI (43%) and overweight individuals (47%). Notably, PWH with EVAF showed higher 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk scores regardless of BMI (p=0.0019). The study also found that visceral adipose tissue area strongly correlates with pericardial fat volume (p<0.0001).
The research suggests healthcare providers should incorporate EVAF screening, such as waist circumference measurements, alongside BMI to better identify CV risk in HIV patients on modern antiretroviral therapy.
Theratechnologies (NASDAQ: THTX) presented encouraging data from the PROMISE-US trial of ibalizumab for HIV treatment at CROI 2025. The real-world observational study demonstrated that patients receiving ibalizumab-containing regimens achieved similar viral suppression rates compared to control groups, despite having more severe baseline conditions.
The interim analysis included 112 participants (70 in control Cohort 1, 42 in ibalizumab Cohort 2). Among viremic patients, 47% in the ibalizumab group achieved undetectable viral load after 6 months, compared to 50% in controls. At 12 months, undetectable rates were 42% for ibalizumab versus 53% for controls.
Notably, ibalizumab-treated patients started with more challenging baseline characteristics, including lower CD4 counts and higher viral loads. The drug demonstrated good tolerability with no infusion reactions or treatment discontinuations due to adverse events.
