- Delivered record second quarter Total income, Total Cash Receipts and Adjusted EBITDA
- Delivered Adjusted EBITDA margin of 92%
- Subsequent to the end of the quarter, DRI Healthcare exercised its contractual put option on Ekterly for a total net repurchase price of ~$178M
TORONTO, Aug. 7, 2026 /CNW/ -- DRI Healthcare Trust (TSX: DHT.UN) (TSX: DHT.U) ("DRI Healthcare") today announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. DRI Healthcare's second quarter 2026 financial statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis ("MD&A") have been filed on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca).

"We are pleased to have delivered another solid quarter, posting record financial performance with double-digit growth across Total income, Cash Receipts and Adjusted EBITDA" said Ali Hedayat, Chief Executive Officer. "We also achieved two important milestones in our pre-approval portfolio. In June, Viridian's veligrotug, now named Lumvoa, received FDA approval. Following quarter-end, we exercised our put option on Ekterly for a total net repurchase price of approximately $178 million, which represents a return of 1.5x our purchase price and a high 20s IRR. Together, the Ekterly and Lumvoa outcomes demonstrate our underwriting team's discipline and specialized expertise across the full cycle of an asset - from regulatory approval to realized returns for Unitholders."
Q2 Highlights

- Total Cash Receipts of $46.5 million1;
- Adjusted EBITDA of $42.6 million1;
- Comprehensive earnings of $7.5 million;

Ekterly Disposition
Subsequent to June 30, 2026, DRI Healthcare exercised its Put Option with respect to its royalty participation right in Ekterly, for a total net repurchase price of approximately $178 million. The Put Option has been exercised following the acquisition of KalVista by Chiesi Group on June 11, 2026. Subject to the terms of the royalty agreement, DRI Healthcare expects to receive payment no later than mid-August 2026. The Ekterly royalty purchase agreement will terminate upon receipt of the put price.
Lumvoa (veligrotug) and Elegrobart Royalty Transaction
On June 26, 2026, the U.S. FDA approved Lumvoa (veligrotug) for the treatment of TED. In connection with this approval, DRI Healthcare recognized a milestone payable of $75 million to Viridian during the three months ended June 30, 2026, which reduced DRI Healthcare's maximum remaining potential milestone obligation to $130 million.
On July 10, 2026, DRI Healthcare made a milestone payment of $75 million to Viridian pursuant the term of its existing royalty agreement. On July 9, 2026, DRI Healthcare drew $50 million from its acquisition credit facility to partially fund the payment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS are presented below.
Total Cash Receipts, Normalized Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts
Total Cash Receipts refers to Total Cash Royalty Receipts plus cash receipts from all products. Total Cash Receipts includes cash receipts from interest as well as non-recurring cash receipts.
Total Cash Royalty Receipts refers to aggregate cash royalty receipts and milestone royalty receipts from our portfolio of royalty assets and forms part of Total Cash Receipts. Because of the lag between when we record royalty income and receive the corresponding cash payments on our royalties and milestones, we believe Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts are useful measures when evaluating our operations, as they represent actual cash generated in respect of all royalty assets held during a period. We also present Normalized Total Cash Receipts, which refers to Total Cash Receipts adjusted to remove cash receipts that are not expected to recur in the normal course of our operations. We believe that Normalized Total Cash Receipts will assist readers in evaluating the period-over-period performance of our royalty portfolio since Normalized Total Cash Receipts only includes cash receipts generated by royalties and other amounts payable pursuant to the terms of our royalty assets. There were no adjustments required to normalize cash receipts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

1 Non-cash royalty income relates to Eylea I&II royalties that were deposited into an escrow account but had not yet been transferred to the operation account as of March 31, 2026. The royalties were received on June 4, 2026. |
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information about our operating cash flows as it eliminates the effects of other noncash expenses and accruals and income and expenses not expected to recur that have been recorded on the interim condensed consolidated statements of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss). We refer to EBITDA when reconciling our net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, but we do not use EBITDA as a measure of our performance.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a useful supplemental measure to demonstrate the operating efficiency of our business on a cash basis.
