RADIENT
PHARMACEUTICALS’ DECONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY JADE PHARMACEUTICALS
INC. CLOSES $900,000 BRIDGE FINANCING
The
financing will be used to underwrite legal and accounting expenses associated
with the previously announced anticipated merger of JPI and Shanxi BaoTai
Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (BaoTai) ¾ a privately-owned
pharmaceutical manufacturing company located in Taiyuan, China.
According
to Douglas MacLellan, Chairman and CEO of RPC, “This bridge financing is an
important part of our overall financing strategy that will allow us to move
ahead with our planned merger with BaoTai, after which, we hope to list public
shares of the newly formed organization on a public exchange. Our
primary focus is to exploit the core competencies of JPI and BaoTai to
ultimately build a high-growth business that delivers novel cancer-centric
pharmaceutical products to global, in-demand markets.“
JPI is
the second leading provider of Domperidone™ ¾ an antiemetic
pharmaceutical product used to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by
chemotherapy treatment and/or other medications given to patients. Annual
Domperidone sales in China are estimated to be $250 million at the patient
level, and approximately $125 million at the wholesale level, with
an annual growth rate of 15%. We believe the combined companies will be in
a strong position to gain at least 50% of the Chinese Domperidone market
within the next 3 years. In addition, both companies have a solid product
pipeline that should enable them to introduce a minimum of five additional
cancer‐centric products to market each of which has the potential
to generate $50 million in gross revenues by FY2015.
RPC owns approximately 98% of JPI,
which is a China‐based pharmaceutical company engaged
in the manufacture and
distribution of generic and homeopathic pharmaceutical products. JPI
operates a wholly‐owned Chinese subsidiary Jiangxi
Jiezhong Bio‐Chemical
Pharmacy Company Limited
(JJB). For additional information on Radient
