Bridge­Bio bor­rows $750M ahead of key PhI­II read­out, as it looks to wrap up buzzy 2021

The way Bridge­Bio tells it, it’s been up to some big things re­cent­ly. And on Thurs­day, the biotech just got a whole lot more cash to turn its dreams in­to re­al­i­ty.

Bridge­Bio took out a $750 mil­lion loan on Thurs­day, sep­a­rat­ed in­to two tranch­es of $450 mil­lion and $300 mil­lion. The first, larg­er tranche will be avail­able for Bridge­Bio to spend im­me­di­ate­ly, while the biotech can opt in­to the sec­ond, small­er tranche af­ter one of two con­di­tions re­lat­ed to its pipeline is met.
