The size of the deal could grow to about $610 million, or bump it up an extra $3-a-share to $15.50 if certain goals are hit linked to drug trials.Such contingent value rights will be paid based on the treatments for hearing loss hitting certain milestones throughout the next few years and gaining regulatory approval by the Food and Drug Administration by or before Dec. 31 of 2026.The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2022.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9983046071,"gmtCreate":1666133116194,"gmtModify":1676537709246,"author":{"id":"3581837121803380","authorId":"3581837121803380","name":"ArcherWG","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/38e40c44fababa6849ceb15dfe8931a3","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3581837121803380","authorIdStr":"3581837121803380"},"htmlText":"Noted","listText":"Noted","text":"Noted","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9983046071","repostId":1136877041,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9983040209,"gmtCreate":1666132570602,"gmtModify":1676537709128,"author":{"id":"4108816210230400","authorId":"4108816210230400","name":"YJ
