(Nasdaq: PSTX) (\"Poseida\"), a clinical-stage allogeneic cell therapy and genetic medicines company advancing differentiated non-viral treatments for patients with cancer, autoimmune and rare diseases, today announced that it has entered into a merger agreement to be acquired by Roche Holdings, Inc. (\"Roche\") at a price of $9.00 per share in cash at closing, plus a non-tradeable CVR to receive certain contingent payments of up to an aggregate of $4.00 per share in cash upon achievement of specific milestones. This corresponds to a total equity value of approximately $1.5 billion on a fully diluted basis. The merger agreement has been unanimously approved by Poseida's Board of Directors, and Poseida's Board of Directors unanimously recommends that Poseida stockholders tender their shares in the tender offer.\n\n  \n\nThe proposed acquisition will establish a new core capability for Roche in allogeneic cell therapy, with lead opportunities focused on CAR-T programs covered by the existing strategic collaboration between Poseida and Roche in hematologic malignancies. It will include CAR-T programs for solid tumors and autoimmune diseases, along with Poseida's genetic engineering platform and related preclinical medicines.\nPoseida has pioneered a proprietary technology platform that includes a full set of non-viral capabilities to design, develop and manufacture allogeneic, T stem cell memory cells (TSCM)-rich CAR-T therapies. TSCM cells are considered ideal for CAR-T therapy because they are long-lived, multi-potent and self-replicating, with the potential for an improved safety and efficacy profile. This may offer benefits compared to other approaches, which either use a different cell type or drive T cell differentiation (and therefore less stemness) as part of the process to manufacture the CAR-T cells.\n\"Poseida has demonstrated the unique ability of its proprietary non-viral technology platform to create allogeneic, TSCM-rich CAR-T therapies with the potential to improve clinical outcomes and expand access to this important class of medicines. Most recently, this was highlighted by the compelling interim clinical data for P-BCMA-ALLO1 in patients with multiple myeloma,\" said Kristin Yarema, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Poseida Therapeutics. \"We have worked closely with Roche through our collaboration focused on hematologic malignancies, and we are excited to join Roche to work as colleagues together across our pipeline and future programs. Roche's global capabilities in late-stage development and commercialization will enable patients worldwide to benefit from the transformative potential of allo CAR-T.\"\nPoseida and its employees will join the Roche Group as part of Roche's Pharmaceuticals Division.\nTransaction Terms\nUnder terms of the merger agreement, Roche will commence a tender offer to acquire all of Poseida's outstanding shares for a price of $9.00 per share in cash at closing, plus a non-tradeable CVR to receive up to an aggregate of $4.00 per share in cash, payable upon achievement of specified milestones. \nThe closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the tender of shares representing at least a majority of Poseida's outstanding shares (other than shares held by Poseida, Roche or any of their respective subsidiaries, and any dissenting shares), the completion of regulatory review and other customary closing conditions. Upon the successful completion of the tender offer, Roche will acquire all remaining Poseida shares that are not tendered into the tender offer through a second-step merger at the same price of $9.00 per share in cash at closing, plus a non-tradeable CVR to receive up to an aggregate of $4.00 per share in cash, payable upon achievement of specified milestones.\nThe closing of the transaction is currently expected to take place in the first quarter of 2025.\nAdvisorsCenterview Partners LLC is serving as exclusive financial advisor to Poseida and Cooley LLP is serving as legal counsel.

The forward-looking statements contained in this document are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from current expectations because of, among other things, risks associated with uncertainties as to the timing of the tender offer and the subsequent merger; uncertainties as to how many of Poseida's stockholders will tender their shares of common stock in the tender offer; the risk that competing offers or acquisition proposals will be made; the possibility that various conditions to the consummation of the tender offer or the subsequent merger may not be satisfied or waived, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the tender offer or the subsequent merger; the risk of legal proceedings being brought in relation to the transactions and the outcome of such proceedings; the effects of disruption from the transactions of Poseida's business and the fact that the announcement and pendency of the transactions may make it more difficult to establish or maintain relationships with employees and business partners; the possibility that the milestone payments related to the contingent value right will never be achieved and that no milestone payment may be made; Poseida's reliance on third parties for various aspects of its business; risks and uncertainties associated with development and regulatory approval of novel product candidates in the biopharmaceutical industry; risks associated with conducting clinical trials; whether any of Poseida's product candidates will be shown to be safe and effective; Poseida's ability to finance continued operations; competition in Poseida's target markets; and uncertainties pertaining to other business effects, including the effects of industry, market, economic, political or regulatory conditions, future exchange and interest rates and changes in tax and other laws, regulations, rates and policies.
