For additional information on our collaboration arrangements with Samsung Bioepis, please read Note 17, Collaborative and Other Relationships, to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (condensed consolidated financial statements).
Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, our condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of our financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our 2021 Form 10-K. Our accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2021 Form 10-K and updated, as necessary, in this report. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period.
We operate as one operating segment, focused on discovering, developing and delivering worldwide innovative therapies for people living with serious neurological and neurodegenerative diseases as well as related therapeutic adjacencies.
BIOGEN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Consolidation
Our condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our financial statements, those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and those of certain variable interest entities where we are the primary beneficiary. For consolidated entities where we own or are exposed to less than 100.0% of the economics, we record net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax in our condensed consolidated statements of income equal to the percentage of the economic or ownership interest retained in such entities by the respective noncontrolling parties. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, we apply a qualitative approach that determines whether we have both (1) the power to direct the economically significant activities of the entity and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to that entity. We continuously assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity as changes to existing relationships or future transactions may result in us consolidating or deconsolidating one or more of our collaborators or partners.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenue and expense and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis we evaluate our estimates, judgments and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity and the amount of revenue and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The length of time and full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic directly or indirectly impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition, including sales, expense, reserves and allowances, the supply chain, manufacturing, clinical trials, research and development costs and employee-related costs, depends on future developments that are highly uncertain, subject to change and are difficult to predict, including as a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain or treat COVID-19 as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international customers and markets. Additionally, the ongoing geopolitical tensions related to the conflict in Ukraine, and the related sanctions and other penalties imposed, are creating substantial uncertainty in the global economy. The extent and duration of the conflict, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are highly unpredictable. We have made estimates of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing geopolitical conflict within our condensed consolidated financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods.
New Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that we adopt as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed below, we do not believe that the adoption of recently issued standards have had or may have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
Fair Value Measurements
In June 2022 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. This standard clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. This standard becomes effective for us on January 1, 2024, and is not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2. DISPOSITIONS
Sale of Joint Venture Equity Interest in Samsung Bioepis
In April 2022 we completed the sale of our 49.9% equity interest in Samsung Bioepis to Samsung BioLogics Co., Ltd (Samsung BioLogics). Under the terms of this transaction, we received approximately $1.0 billion in cash at closing and expect to receive approximately $1.3 billion in cash to be deferred over two payments of approximately $812.5 million due at the first anniversary and approximately $437.5 million due at the second anniversary of the closing of the transaction.
Prior to the sale, the carrying value of our investment in Samsung Bioepis totaled $581.6 million. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $1.5 billion related to the transaction, which was recorded in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income. This pre-tax gain included reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to net income of approximately $58.9 million in cumulative translation losses, partially offset by approximately $57.0 million in gains resulting from the termination of our net investment hedge.
We have concluded that the divestment of Samsung Bioepis does not meet the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements, as our decision to divest this business does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results.
We have elected the fair value option and measured the payments due to us from Samsung BioLogics at fair value based on risk-adjusted discount rates of 3.1% and 3.7% for the first and second payments due, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the estimated fair values of the first and second payments were approximately $788.1 million and $406.8 million, respectively, and have been classified as level 3 measurements reflected in other current assets and investments and other assets, respectively, in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As part of the transaction, we are also eligible to receive up to an additional $50.0 million upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones. Our policy for contingent payments of this nature is to recognize them in the period that they become realizable, which is generally the same period in which they are earned.
If any payments due to us remain outstanding after the second anniversary of the closing of the transaction, we may elect to receive shares of Samsung BioLogics common stock at a 5.0% discount in lieu of a cash payment for the remaining amount due. Currently, we believe that the likelihood of Samsung BioLogics failing to make timely payments to us for the amounts due is remote.
Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a discrete tax expense of approximately $269.5 million related to this transaction, which is reflected in income tax (benefit) expense in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
3. RESTRUCTURING, BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION AND OTHER COST SAVING INITIATIVES
2022 Cost Saving Initiatives
In December 2021 and May 2022 we announced our plans to implement a series of cost-reduction measures during 2022. These savings are being achieved through a number of initiatives, including reductions to our workforce, the substantial elimination of our commercial ADUHELM infrastructure, the consolidation of certain real estate locations and operating efficiencies across our selling, general and administrative and research and development functions.
Under these initiatives, we expect to incur restructuring charges ranging from approximately $130.0 million to $150.0 million. These amounts are primarily related to severance and are expected to be substantially incurred and paid by the end of 2022.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized approximately $70.6 million and $108.7 million, respectively, of pre-tax restructuring charges related to our 2022 cost saving initiatives, of which approximately $60.9 million and $88.6 million, respectively, consisted of employee severance costs. These costs were recorded in restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of income. Our restructuring reserve is included in accrued expense and other in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Following an evaluation of our current capacity needs, in March 2022 we ceased using a patient services office space in Durham, North Carolina. Our decision to cease use of the facility resulted in the immediate expense of certain leasehold improvements and other assets at this facility. As a result, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized approximately $10.4 million of accelerated depreciation expense, which was recorded in restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of income. In May 2022 we entered into a lease assignment agreement whereby we assigned our remaining lease obligations to an external third party. As a result of the lease assignment, we derecognized the related operating lease obligation and right-of-use asset as of June 30, 2022.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded other restructuring costs of approximately $9.7 million, which were recorded in restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of income. Other restructuring costs includes items such as facility closure costs, employee non-severance expense, asset write-offs and other costs.
The following table summarizes the charges and spending related to our 2022 workforce reductions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022:

Amortization and Impairments
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets totaled $67.5 million and $134.4 million, respectively, compared to $604.1 million and $702.2 million, respectively, in the prior year comparative periods. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we had no impairment charges.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets reflects a $350.0 million impairment charge related to BIIB111 (timrepigene emparvovec) for the potential treatment of choroideremia and a $191.6 million impairment charge related to BIIB112 (cotoretigene toliparvovec) for the potential treatment of X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets also reflects a $44.3 million impairment charge related to vixotrigine (BIIB074) for the potential treatment of trigeminal neuralgia (TGN).
Completed Technology
Completed technology primarily relates to our acquisition of all remaining rights to TYSABRI as well as other amounts related to our other marketed products and programs acquired through business combinations.
IPR&D Related to Business Combinations
In-process research and development (IPR&D) represents the fair value assigned to research and development assets that we acquired as part of a business combination and had not yet reached technological feasibility at the date of acquisition. Included in IPR&D balances are adjustments related to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We review amounts capitalized as acquired IPR&D for impairment annually, as of October 31, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate to us that the carrying value of the assets might not be recoverable. The carrying value associated with our IPR&D assets as of June 30, 2022, relates to the IPR&D programs we acquired in connection with our acquisition of Convergence Pharmaceuticals Holdings Ltd. (Convergence).

Vixotrigine
In the periods since we acquired vixotrigine, there have been numerous delays in the initiation of Phase 3 studies for the potential treatment of TGN and for the potential treatment of diabetic painful neuropathy (DPN), another form of neuropathic pain. We have engaged with the FDA regarding the design of the Phase 3 studies of vixotrigine for the potential treatment of TGN and DPN and are now performing an additional clinical trial of vixotrigine, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2022.
The performance of this additional clinical trial has delayed the initiation of the Phase 3 studies of vixotrigine for the potential treatment of TGN, and, as a result, we recognized an impairment charge of $44.3 million related to vixotrigine for the potential treatment of TGN during the first quarter of 2021.
As of June 30, 2022, the carrying value associated with the remaining IPR&D intangible asset for DPN was $119.2 million and the fair value of this asset was not significantly in excess of its carrying value. We will reassess the carrying value of this program upon conclusion of the ongoing clinical trial or sooner if there is a reevaluation event and may record an impairment charge related to this asset.
BIIB111 and BIIB112
During the second quarter of 2021 we announced that our Phase 3 STAR study of BIIB111 did not meet its primary or key secondary endpoints. We reassessed the fair value of the program based on the results of this study and recognized an impairment charge of $350.0 million during the second quarter of 2021, which resulted in a reduction of the IPR&D intangible asset from $365.0 million to $15.0 million.
During the second quarter of 2021 we announced that our Phase 2/3 XIRIUS study of BIIB112 did not meet its primary endpoint; however, positive trends were observed across several clinically relevant prespecified secondary endpoints. We reassessed the fair value of the program based on the results of this study and recognized an impairment charge of $191.6 million during the second quarter of 2021, which resulted in a reduction of the IPR&D intangible asset from $220.0 million to $28.4 million.
In the third quarter of 2021 we suspended further development on these programs based on the decision by management as part of its strategic review process. For the year ended December 31, 2021, we recognized additional impairment charges related to BIIB111 and BIIB112, reducing the remaining book values of these IPR&D intangible assets to zero.
Estimated Future Amortization of Intangible Assets

9. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts - Hedging Instruments
Due to the global nature of our operations, portions of our revenue and operating expense are recorded in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The value of revenue and operating expense measured in U.S. dollars is therefore subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options with financial institutions with the primary objective to mitigate the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on our international revenue and operating expense.
Foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options in effect as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, had durations of 1 to 15 months. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges and unrealized gains or losses on the portion of these foreign currency forward contracts that are included in the effectiveness test are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (referred to as AOCI in the tables below). Realized gains and losses of such contracts are recognized in revenue when the sale of product in the

currency being hedged is recognized and in operating expense when the expense in the currency being hedged is recorded. We recognize all cash flow hedge reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and fair value changes of excluded portions in the same line item in our condensed consolidated statements of income that have been impacted by the hedged item.
The notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts that were entered into to hedge forecasted revenue and operating expense is summarized as follows:

We consider the impact of our and our counterparties’ credit risk on the fair value of the contracts as well as the ability of each party to execute its contractual obligations. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, credit risk did not materially change the fair value of our foreign currency forward contracts.

Net Investment Hedges - Hedging Instruments
In February 2012 we entered into a joint venture agreement with Samsung BioLogics establishing an entity, Samsung Bioepis, to develop, manufacture and market biosimilar products. In June 2018 we exercised our option under our joint venture agreement to increase our ownership percentage in Samsung Bioepis from approximately 5.0% to approximately 49.9%. The share purchase transaction was completed in November 2018 and, upon closing, we paid 759.5 billion South Korean won ($676.6 million) to Samsung BioLogics. Our investment in the equity of Samsung Bioepis related to this transaction was exposed to the currency fluctuations in the South Korean won.
BIOGEN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, continued)
In order to mitigate the currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and South Korean won, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts. These contracts were designated as net investment hedges. In April 2022 we completed the sale of our 49.9% equity interest in Samsung Bioepis to Samsung BioLogics and closed these foreign currency forward contracts. Upon completing this sale, the cumulative gains on our net investment hedges of $57.0 million were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reflected within the total pre-tax gain recognized from the sale, which was recorded in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income. For additional information on the sale of our equity interest in Samsung Bioepis, please read Note 2, Dispositions, to these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Prior to the sale of our equity interest in Samsung Bioepis we recognized changes in the spot exchange rate of these foreign currency forward contracts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The pre-tax portion of the fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts that were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in total equity reflected net gains of $10.6 million as of December 31, 2021. We excluded fair value changes related to the forward rate from our hedging relationship and amortized the forward points in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income over the term of the contract. The pre-tax portion of the fair value of the forward points that were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in total equity reflected net losses of $3.6 million as of December 31, 2021.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts - Other Derivative Instruments
We also enter into other foreign currency forward contracts, usually with durations of one month or less, to mitigate the foreign currency risk related to certain balance sheet positions. We have not elected hedge accounting for these transactions.
The aggregate notional amount of these outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was $1,230.4 million and $1,268.0 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Net losses of $37.1 million and $49.3 million related to these contracts were recorded as a component of other (income) expense, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to net gains of $4.8 million and net losses of $12.6 million, respectively, in the prior year comparative periods.

Accumulated depreciation on property, plant and equipment was $2,131.0 million and $2,006.6 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, depreciation expense totaled $67.2 million and $143.5 million, respectively, compared to $54.7 million and $103.5 million, respectively, in the prior year comparative periods.
Solothurn, Switzerland Manufacturing Facility
In order to support our future growth and drug development pipeline, we are building a large-scale biologics manufacturing facility in Solothurn, Switzerland. Upon completion, this facility will include 393,000 square feet related to a large-scale biologics manufacturing facility, 290,000 square feet of warehouse, utilities and support space and 51,000 square feet of administrative space. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had approximately $691.7 million and $677.0 million, respectively, capitalized as construction in progress related to this facility. In the second quarter of 2021, a portion of the facility received a Good Manufacturing Practice multi-product license from the Swiss Agency for Therapeutic Products, resulting in approximately $1.2 billion of fixed assets being placed in service during the second quarter of 2021. In April 2022 the FDA approved the Prior Approval Supplement for the Solothurn facility for ADUHELM. We estimate the second manufacturing suite will be operational during the second half of 2023.
11. INDEBTEDNESS
3.625% Senior Notes due September 15, 2022
On September 15, 2015, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of our 3.625% Senior Notes due September 15, 2022, at 99.920% of par. Our 3.625% Senior Notes were senior unsecured obligations. In July 2022 we redeemed our 3.625% Senior Notes prior to their maturity and will recognize a net pre-tax charge of approximately $2.4 million upon the extinguishment of these notes, which primarily reflects the payment of an early call premium as well as the write-off of remaining unamortized original debt issuance costs and discount balances. These charges

will be recognized as interest expense in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income during the third quarter of 2022.
Exchange Offer
In February 2021 we completed our Exchange Offer of our tendered 2045 Senior Notes for our 2051 Senior Notes and cash, and an offer to purchase our tendered 2045 Senior Notes for cash.
An aggregate principal amount of approximately $624.6 million of our 2045 Senior Notes was exchanged for an aggregate principal amount of approximately $700.7 million of our 2051 Senior Notes and aggregate cash payments of approximately $151.8 million. Our Exchange Offer has been accounted for as a debt modification; as such, the cash component has been reflected as additional debt discount and is amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of our 2051 Senior Notes.
In addition, we redeemed an aggregate principal amount of approximately $8.9 million of our 2045 Senior Notes for aggregate cash payments of approximately $12.1 million, excluding accrued and unpaid interest. The redemption has been accounted for as a debt extinguishment; as such, we recognized a pre-tax charge of $3.2 million upon the extinguishment of such 2045 Senior Notes. This charge, which was recognized in interest expense in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, reflects the payment of an early call premium and the write-off of the remaining unamortized original debt issuance costs and discount balances associated with such 2045 Senior Notes.
Upon settlement, we also made aggregate cash payments of approximately $13.8 million to settle all accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date on our 2045 Senior Notes that were exchanged or redeemed. We incurred approximately $6.1 million of costs associated with our Exchange Offer, which was recognized in interest expense in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Changes in Tax Rate
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021, the increases in our effective tax rate were primarily due to the overall current year unfavorable tax rate impact on the sale of our equity interest in Samsung Bioepis in April 2022, the litigation agreement in principle and the tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2021 related to the Neurimmune SubOne AG (Neurimmune) deferred tax asset matter, as discussed below. These effective tax rate increases were partially offset by the non-cash tax effects of changes in the value of our equity instruments and the current year tax benefits recorded in the second quarter of 2022 related to an international reorganization to align with global tax developments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared with the same period in 2021, our effective tax rate also increased as a result of the Neurimmune valuation allowance recorded in the first quarter of 2022.
During the second quarter of 2021 we recorded a net deferred tax asset in Switzerland of approximately $490.0 million on Neurimmune's tax basis in ADUHELM, the realization of which is dependent on future sales of ADUHELM. During the fourth quarter of 2021, due to reduced future expected revenue associated with ADUHELM, we recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $390.0 million.
During the first quarter of 2022, upon issuance of the final NCD related to ADUHELM, we recorded an additional valuation allowance of approximately $85.0 million to reduce the net value of this deferred tax asset to zero. These adjustments to our deferred tax assets and their valuation allowances are each recorded with an equal and offsetting amount assigned to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax in our condensed consolidated statements of income, resulting in a zero net impact to net income attributable to Biogen Inc.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
We and our subsidiaries are routinely examined by various taxing authorities. We file income tax returns in various U.S. states and in U.S. federal and other foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examination for years before 2017 or state, local or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2012.
BIOGEN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, continued)
The U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other national tax authorities routinely examine our intercompany transfer pricing with respect to intellectual property related transactions and it is possible that they may disagree with one or more positions we have taken with respect to such valuations.
It is reasonably possible that we will adjust the value of our uncertain tax positions related to certain transfer pricing, collaboration matters and other issues as we receive additional information from various taxing authorities, including reaching settlements with such authorities.
We estimate that it is reasonably possible that our gross unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest, could
decrease by up to approximately $500.0 million, including approximately $455.0 million related to the unrecognized
tax benefits related to Neurimmune's tax basis in ADUHELM, in the next 12 months as a result of various audit
closures, settlements and expiration of the statute of limitations. Any changes to our gross unrecognized tax benefits related to Neurimmune's tax basis in ADUHELM would result in a zero net impact to net income attributable to Biogen, Inc., as we have recorded a full valuation allowance against the relevant deferred tax assets.

17. COLLABORATIVE AND OTHER RELATIONSHIPS
Eisai Co., Ltd.
Lecanemab Collaboration
We have a collaboration agreement with Eisai Co., Ltd. (Eisai) to jointly develop and commercialize lecanemab (BAN2401), an anti-amyloid antibody, and elenbecestat, the oral BACE (base amyloid cleaving enzyme) inhibitor, two Eisai product candidates for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease (the Lecanemab Collaboration). In September 2019 we and Eisai discontinued the global Phase 3 studies of elenbecestat in early Alzheimer's disease.
Eisai serves as the lead of lecanemab development and regulatory submissions globally with both companies co-commercializing and co-promoting the product, and Eisai having final decision-making authority. All costs, including research, development, sales and marketing expense, are shared equally between us and Eisai. If lecanemab receives marketing approval, we and Eisai will co-promote lecanemab and share profits equally. In March 2022 we extended our supply agreement related to lecanemab from five years to ten years, and we will manufacture the lecanemab drug substance.
In May 2022 Eisai completed the submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the FDA for the accelerated approval of lecanemab. In July 2022 the FDA accepted the BLA and granted Priority Review with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act action date of January 6, 2023.
The Lecanemab Collaboration also provided Eisai with an option to jointly develop and commercialize ADUHELM (aducanumab) (ADUHELM Option). In October 2017 Eisai exercised its ADUHELM Option and we entered into a new collaboration agreement for the joint development and commercialization of ADUHELM (the ADUHELM Collaboration Agreement).

ADUHELM Collaboration Agreement
Under our initial ADUHELM Collaboration Agreement, we would lead the ongoing development of ADUHELM, and we and Eisai would co-promote ADUHELM with a region-based profit split. Beginning January 1, 2019, Eisai was reimbursing us for 45.0% of development costs incurred by the collaboration for the advancement of ADUHELM (ADUHELM development expense).
In June 2021 ADUHELM was granted accelerated approval by the FDA for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and had its first commercial sale. As a result of the launch of ADUHELM in the U.S., we made a $100.0 million milestone payment to Neurimmune. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized net profit-sharing income of $45.0 million to reflect Eisai's 45.0% share of the $100.0 million milestone payment, which was recorded in collaboration profit (loss) sharing in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
In March 2022 we amended our ADUHELM Collaboration Agreement with Eisai. Effective March 2022 we have sole decision making and commercialization rights worldwide on ADUHELM and beginning January 1, 2023, Eisai will receive a tiered royalty based on net sales of ADUHELM, rather than sharing global profits and losses. Eisai's share of development, commercialization and manufacturing expense is limited to $335.0 million for the period from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, Eisai's portion of these expenses was approximately $275.0 million. Once this limit is achieved, we will be responsible for all ADUHELM related development costs. After the tiered royalty model commences on January 1, 2023, Eisai will not participate in ADUHELM’s economics beyond these royalties.

Samsung Bioepis Co., Ltd.
Joint Venture Agreement
In February 2012 we entered into a joint venture agreement with Samsung BioLogics establishing an entity, Samsung Bioepis, to develop, manufacture and market biosimilar products.
In April 2022 we completed the sale of our 49.9% equity interest in Samsung Bioepis to Samsung BioLogics. Under the terms of this transaction, we received approximately $1.0 billion in cash at closing and expect to receive approximately $1.3 billion in cash to be deferred over two payments of approximately $812.5 million due at the first anniversary and approximately $437.5 million due at the second anniversary of the closing of the transaction.
As part of the transaction, we are also eligible to receive up to an additional $50.0 million upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones. Our policy for contingent payments of this nature is to recognize them in the period that they become realizable, which is generally the same period in which they are earned.
Prior to this sale, we recognized our share of the results of operations related to our investment in Samsung Bioepis under the equity method of accounting one quarter in arrears when the results of the entity became available, which was reflected as equity in (income) loss of investee, net of tax in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
Upon investment, the equity method of accounting required us to identify and allocate differences between the fair value of our investment and the carrying value of our interest in the underlying net assets of the investee. These basis differences were being amortized over their economic life until the completion of the sale in April 2022, as discussed above. The total basis difference was approximately $675.0 million and related to inventory, developed technology, IPR&D and deferred tax balances. The basis differences related to inventory were amortized, net of tax, over their estimated useful lives of 1.5 years, and the basis differences related to developed technology and IPR&D for marketed products were being amortized, net of tax, over their estimated useful lives of 15 years.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized net income on our investment of $5.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively, reflecting our share of Samsung Bioepis' operating profits, net of tax totaling $13.0 million and $17.0 million, respectively, offset by amortization of basis differences totaling $7.1 million and $14.4 million, respectively. These amounts reflect our share of results prior to the sale of Samsung Bioepis as the results are recognized one quarter in arrears. Following the sale of Samsung Bioepis we no longer recognize gains or losses associated with Samsung Bioepis' results of operations and amortization related to basis differences.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized net income on our investment of $34.3 million and $16.1 million, respectively, reflecting our share of Samsung Bioepis' operating income, net of tax totaling $41.6 million and $30.6 million, respectively, and amortization of basis differences totaling $7.3 million and $14.5 million, respectively.

Samsung Bioepis will be responsible for development and will supply both products to us at a pre-specified gross margin of approximately 45.0%.
In connection with this transaction, we made an upfront payment of $100.0 million to Samsung Bioepis in January 2020, of which $63.0 million was recorded as research and development expense in our condensed consolidated statements of income in 2019 and $37.0 million was recorded as intangible assets, net in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in 2019.
During the third quarter of 2021 we accrued $15.0 million in milestone payments related to the approval of BYOOVIZ in the U.S., the E.U. and the United Kingdom (U.K.), that were capitalized within intangible assets, net in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We may also pay Samsung Bioepis up to approximately $180.0 million in additional development, regulatory and sales-based milestones.
We also acquired an option to extend the term of our 2013 commercial agreement for BENEPALI, IMRALDI and FLIXABI by an additional five years, subject to payment of an option exercise fee of $60.0 million, and obtained an option to acquire exclusive rights to commercialize these products in China.
2013 Commercial Agreement
We reflect revenue on sales of BENEPALI, IMRALDI and FLIXABI to third parties in product revenue, net in our condensed consolidated statements of income and record the related cost of revenue and sales and marketing expense in our condensed consolidated statements of income to their respective line items when these costs are incurred.
We share 50.0% of the profit or loss related to our commercial agreement with Samsung Bioepis, which is recognized in collaboration profit (loss) sharing in our condensed consolidated statements of income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized net profit-sharing expense of $58.3 million and $122.7 million, respectively, to reflect Samsung Bioepis' 50.0% sharing of the net collaboration profits, compared to a net profit-sharing expense of $69.9 million and $138.4 million, respectively, in the prior year comparative periods.
Other Services
Simultaneous with the formation of Samsung Bioepis, we also entered into a technical development services agreement, a manufacturing agreement and a license agreement with Samsung Bioepis. Revenue related to these services is reflected in revenue from collaborative and other relationships as a component of other revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
Amounts receivable from Samsung Bioepis related to the agreements discussed above were $3.1 million and $4.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Amounts payable to Samsung Bioepis related to the agreements discussed above were $121.1 million and $148.7 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

18. INVESTMENTS IN VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial results of variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary. The following are our significant variable interest entities.
Neurimmune SubOne AG
We have a collaboration and license agreement with Neurimmune for the development and commercialization of antibodies for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease, including ADUHELM (as amended, the Neurimmune Agreement). We are responsible for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of all collaboration products. The Neurimmune Agreement is effective for the longer of the duration of certain patents relating to a licensed product or 12 years from the first commercial sale of a licensed product.
We consolidate the results of Neurimmune as we determined that we are the primary beneficiary of Neurimmune because we have the power through the collaboration to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and we are required to fund 100.0% of the research and development costs incurred in support of the collaboration.
In June 2021 ADUHELM was granted accelerated approval by the FDA. Under the terms of the Neurimmune Agreement, we were required to pay Neurimmune a milestone payment of $100.0 million related to the launch of ADUHELM in the U.S. During the second quarter of 2021 we made this $100.0 million payment, which was recognized as a charge to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax in our condensed consolidated statements of income. In addition, during the second quarter of 2021 we recognized net profit-sharing income of $45.0 million to reflect Eisai's 45.0% share of the $100.0 million milestone payment, which was recognized in collaboration profit (loss) sharing in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
During the second quarter of 2021 we recorded a net deferred tax asset in Switzerland of approximately $490.0 million on Neurimmune's tax basis in ADUHELM, the realization of which is dependent on future sales of ADUHELM. During the fourth quarter of 2021, due to reduced future expected revenue associated with ADUHELM, we recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $390.0 million. During the first quarter of 2022, upon issuance of the final NCD related to ADUHELM, we recorded an additional valuation allowance of approximately $85.0 million to reduce the net value of this deferred tax asset to zero. These adjustments to our deferred tax assets and their valuation allowances are each recorded with an equal and offsetting amount assigned to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax in our condensed consolidated statements of income, resulting in a zero net impact to net income attributable to Biogen Inc.
Excluding the impact of the Neurimmune deferred tax asset, the assets and liabilities of Neurimmune are not significant to our condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations as it is a research and development organization. We have provided no financing to Neurimmune other than contractually required amounts.
For additional information on our collaboration arrangements with Eisai, please read Note 17, Collaborative and Other Relationships, to these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
We have relationships with various variable interest entities that we do not consolidate as we lack the power to direct the activities that significantly impact the economic success of these entities. These relationships include investments in certain biotechnology companies and research collaboration agreements.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying value of our investments in certain biotechnology companies representing potential unconsolidated variable interest entities totaled $23.5 million and $24.6 million, respectively. Our maximum exposure to loss related to these variable interest entities is limited to the carrying value of our investments.
We have also entered into research collaboration agreements with certain variable interest entities where we are required to fund certain development activities. These development activities are included in research and development expense in our condensed consolidated statements of income as they are incurred. We have provided no financing to these variable interest entities other than previous contractually required amounts.

Loss Contingencies
ADUHELM Securities Litigation
We and certain current and former officers are named as defendants in actions filed by shareholders on November 13, 2020 (the November 2020 Securities Action) and February 7, 2022 (the February 2022 Securities Action), and pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The actions allege violations of federal securities laws under 15 U.S.C §78j(b) and §78t(a) and 17 C.F.R. §240.10b-5 and seek declarations of the actions as class actions and monetary relief. We have filed a motion to dismiss the November 2020 Securities Action, which is pending. An estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in these actions cannot be made at this time.
Derivative Action
We and members of the Board of Directors are named as defendants in an action filed by a shareholder on February 9, 2022, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The action alleges violations of federal securities laws under 15 U.S.C. §78n(a) and 17 C.F.R. §240 14.a-9, breaches of fiduciary duties and waste of corporate assets, and seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, monetary relief to Biogen, and attorneys’ fees and costs to the plaintiff. The court has stayed the case pending the resolution of the February 2022 Securities Action. An estimate of the possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time.
IMRALDI Patent Litigation
In September 2018 Fresenius Kabi Deutschland GmbH (Fresenius Kabi) commenced proceedings for damages and injunctive relief against Biogen France SAS in the Tribunal de Grande Instance de Paris (the French proceeding) and in November 2018 against Biogen GmbH in the Düsseldorf Regional Court (the German proceeding), alleging that IMRALDI, the adalimumab biosimilar product of Samsung Bioepis that Biogen has commercialized in Europe, infringes national counterparts of European Patent No. 3 148 510 (the EP '510 Patent, expiring in May 2035). Fresenius Kabi later added European Patent 3 145 488 (the EP ‘488 Patent, expiring in May 2035) to both actions and no hearing has been set in either. In June 2022 the Technical Boards of Appeal (TBA) of the European Patent Office (EPO) affirmed the revocation of the EP ‘510 Patent. The EPO has scheduled a hearing on the validity of the EP ‘488 Patent for October 2022.
In June 2020 Fresenius Kabi commenced proceedings in Denmark's Maritime and Commercial High Court alleging that IMRALDI infringes the Danish counterpart of the EP '488 Patent and a Danish utility model. In September 2021 the Court ruled that the patent and utility model are invalid and not infringed. Fresenius Kabi has appealed to the High Court of Eastern Denmark and the appeal is pending.

In November 2020 Gedeon Richter Nyrt commenced additional proceedings against Biogen GmbH in the Düsseldorf Regional Court alleging infringement of a German utility model. In October 2021 Biogen filed cancellation proceedings in respect of the German utility model and the infringement proceedings have been stayed pending the outcome of the cancellation proceedings.
An estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in the IMRALDI patent litigation described above cannot be made at this time.
Qui Tam Litigation
Biogen has reached an agreement in principle to resolve previously disclosed litigation pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging violations of the federal False Claims Act and state law counterparts. The litigation was filed by Michael Bawduniak on behalf of the U.S. and certain states and unsealed in 2015. The U.S. has not intervened in the case. The agreement in principle contemplates Biogen making a payment of $900.0 million. The agreement in principle does not include any admission of liability and is subject to the negotiation of final settlement documents and agreements with the named government entities.
Dispute with Former Convergence Shareholders

Industries, Inc., Sun Pharma Global FZE, Torrent Pharmaceuticals Ltd., TWi Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Windlas Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. and Zydus Pharmaceuticals (USA) Inc. (collectively, the Delaware Defendants) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (the Delaware Court) and against Mylan (the West Virginia Action) in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia (the West Virginia Court).
In November 2021 the Federal Circuit affirmed the West Virginia Court judgment that the asserted claims of our U.S. Patent No. 8,399,514 (the '514 Patent) are invalid for lack of written description and in June 2022 we filed a petition for a writ of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court seeking review of the Federal Circuit's decision.
The Delaware Court entered judgment for the Delaware Defendants on the grounds that the judgment of the West Virginia Court applies to the Delaware Actions under principles of collateral estoppel. The appeals in the Delaware Actions are stayed pending any final action by the United States Supreme Court with respect to the judgment in the West Virginia Action.
In July 2018 Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Mylan) filed a petition with the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) for inter partes review of the '514 Patent. In November 2021 the Federal Circuit ruled that the PTAB decision upholding the patentability of the ‘514 patent was moot, but in April 2022 the Federal Circuit vacated that ruling and stayed the appeal pending any final action by the United States Supreme Court with respect to the judgment in the West Virginia Action.
TYSABRI Patent Revocation Matters
In November 2017 Swiss Pharma International AG, affiliated with the Polpharma Group, filed an action in the Commercial Court of Rome to invalidate the Italian counterpart of the European Patent No. 1 485 127 (the EP '127 Patent) which covers administration of natalizumab (TYSABRI) to treat MS and expires in February 2023. A hearing has been set for November 2022.
In August 2020 Polpharma Biologics S.A., also affiliated with the Polpharma Group, brought an action in the Polish Patent Office to revoke our Polish Patent No. 215263, which corresponds to the EP '127 Patent and expires in February 2023. The action was suspended by the Polish Patent Office in April 2021 pending examination of our amended patent claims.
In June 2021 Polpharma Biologics S.A., Sandoz B.V. and Sandoz AG filed an action in the District Court of the Hague, Netherlands to invalidate the Dutch counterpart of our European Patent 2 676 967 (the EP '967 Patent), which expires in 2027 and covers methods of treatment using natalizumab (TYSABRI) and pre-treatment testing of patients.

A hearing has been set for February 2023.
Annulment Proceedings in the General Court of the European Union relating to TECFIDERA
Pharmaceutical Works Polpharma SA (Polpharma) and Mylan Ireland Ltd. (Mylan Ireland) each filed actions in the General Court of the European Union (Polpharma in October 2018 and Mylan Ireland in November 2020) to annul the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) decision not to validate their applications to market generic versions of TECFIDERA on the grounds that TECFIDERA benefits from regulatory data protection. On May 5, 2021, the European General Court annulled the EMA's non-validation decision with respect to Polpharma. We have appealed the decision to the European Court of Justice and the appeal is pending. The case brought by Mylan Ireland has been stayed.
Product Liability and Other Legal Proceedings
We are also involved in product liability claims and other legal proceedings generally incidental to our normal business activities. While the outcome of any of these proceedings cannot be accurately predicted, we do not believe the ultimate resolution of any of these existing matters would have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.
