Item 8.01 Other Events
On May 11, 2025, Incyte Corporation (the “Company”) and Novartis Pharma AG (“Novartis”) entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with respect to litigation initiated by Novartis and relating to the duration of royalty payments owed by the Company to Novartis under the Collaboration and License Agreement dated November 24, 2009, as amended, between the Company and Novartis. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $537.1 million of accrued royalties relating to the dispute with Novartis included in accrued and other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay to Novartis $280.0 million as the settlement of disputed royalties on net sales of JAKAFI in the United States through December 31, 2024, and the parties agreed to reduce by 50% the royalty rate payable by the Company on future net sales of JAKAFI in the United States beginning January 1, 2025 for a period defined in the Settlement Agreement. The reduced royalty payable for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, is approximately $14.9 million. The difference of $242.2 million between the total accrued royalties and the total amount to be paid by the Company to Novartis as disclosed above will be recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ending June 30, 2025.
