Trevena Restructures China Royalty Rights to Exit Debt

Trevena ( (TRVN) ) has shared an announcement.

On January 9, 2026, Trevena, Inc. and its affiliated entities entered into an Assignment and Release Agreement with Jiangsu Nhwa Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. and R-Bridge Investment Four Pte. Ltd. under which the lender agreed to terminate and release Trevena from its obligations under a royalty-based loan originally executed in March 2022 and amended in July 2024, except for certain surviving indemnification and related obligations. In return, Trevena agreed to transfer to the lender all of its rights, title and interest in royalties under its Chinese License Agreement with Nhwa for the China territory, while retaining rights to commercialization milestone payments, effectively exchanging a stream of China royalty income for relief from the royalty-backed debt facility and altering the company’s future cash flow profile from that region.
