Mallinckrodt didn’t admit or deny the SEC’s findings. Photo: Whitney Curtis/Associated PressThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission said Mallinckrodt failed to tell investors it had potentially overcharged Medicaid for its flagship drug, but the regulator waived a $40 million civil penalty partly because the pharmaceutical company agreed to hire a compliance consultant. The SEC said in an administrative proceeding Thursday that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services informed Mallinckrodt as early as 2016 that the company was using an incorrect rebate rate for its sales of Acthar Gel, a drug used to treat several rare autoimmune diseases, which meant it was overcharging state Medicaid programs for the drug.

☆ Court OKs Mallinckrodt restructuring, $1 billion cut to opioid settlement
  + stars: | 2023-10-10 | by ( Dietrich Knauth | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
Despite the previous bankruptcy settlement that resolved those litigation threats and cut $1.5 billion in debt, Mallinckrodt quickly found itself in financial trouble again due to declining sales for its key branded drugs, including Acthar Gel. As part of its previous bankruptcy, Mallinckrodt, which denied wrongdoing, agreed to pay $1.7 billion to settle about 3,000 lawsuits alleging it used deceptive marketing tactics to boost opioid sales. Unlike the opioid settlement, Mallinckrodt intends to pay the full amount due under the Acthar settlement after its second bankruptcy. Dorsey overruled an objection filed by shareholder Alta Fundamental Advisers, which had argued that Mallinckrodt improperly rushed into a second bankruptcy at the expense of equity owners. The reorganized company has a total enterprise value of about $2.95 billion, according to Mallinckrodt's financial advisor Guggenheim Securities.

☆ Mallinckrodt second bankruptcy would cut $1 billion from opioid settlement
  + stars: | 2023-08-23 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
The agreement announced Wednesday would reduce Mallinckrodt's debt by about $1.9 billion and cancel existing equity shares. The new deal would leave opioid creditors with $1 billion less than the $1.7 billion settlement that Mallinckrodt agreed to pay as part of its 2022 exit from the company's earlier bankruptcy. Mallinckrodt failed to make a $200 million payment to the opioid trust due in June, prompting the company to launch a negotiation with its stakeholders. Mallinckrodt said that its current level of creditor support should allow the company to complete its second bankruptcy by the end of 2023. Drug manufacturers, drug distributors and pharmacy chains have agreed to pay more than $50 billion in settlements to resolve lawsuits related to the U.S. opioid crisis.

☆ Opioids expose unhealthy bankruptcy addictions
  + stars: | 2023-08-11 | by ( Robert Cyran | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +6 min
Between 2006 and 2014, it manufactured roughly 30 billion opioid pills. Its attempt to climb out of bankruptcy has been stalled multiple times, most recently on Thursday by the U.S. Supreme Court. Mallinckrodt agreed to a $260 million settlement last year and quarterly revenue from Acthar has tumbled 70% since 2019. If not, it will be up to elected officials to end such unhealthy bankruptcy addictions. As part of that settlement, Mallinckrodt agreed to pay $1.7 billion over eight years to settle opioid claims.
