Insights

Oramed receives $13M from Scilex’s first warrant repurchase tranche.

Oramed holds warrants to buy 6,500,000 shares of Scilex common stock, which are subject to a repurchase option granted to Scilex. The overall arrangement allows Scilex to repurchase these warrants from Oramed for an aggregate $27,000,000 in two tranches under an option agreement.

On September 30, 2025, Scilex completed the first tranche by repurchasing warrants covering 3,130,000 Scilex shares for $13,000,000, providing cash proceeds to Oramed. The remaining 3,370,000 warrants may be repurchased for $14,000,000 if Scilex exercises its option on or before December 31, 2025.

This structure converts Oramed’s derivative position in Scilex into staged cash inflows, depending on Scilex’s decision to complete the second tranche. Subsequent disclosures from either party would clarify if and when the remaining $14,000,000 repurchase is completed.
