About this deal

HALOZYME THERAPEUTICS, INC. acquired Elektrofi, Inc. for $750 million upfront plus up to three $50 million milestone payments (up to $900 million total), a transaction completed in November 2025, structured as cash upfront plus contingent regulatory milestone payments.

Elektrofi, Inc. operates in Drug delivery technology (ultra-high concentration microparticle formulation for biologics), is based in Boston, Massachusetts. Halozyme acquired Elektrofi, Inc., a Boston-based biopharmaceutical formulation technology company, under an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September 30, 2025. The transaction comprised a $750 million upfront payment plus up to three $50 million milestone payments contingent on three separate product regulatory approvals. Elektrofi's breakthrough Hypercon ultra-high concentration microparticle technology enables high protein concentration and reduced injection volume for biologics, expanding opportunities for at-home and healthcare-provider administration. Halozyme acquired Elektrofi to expand its drug delivery technology offerings and extend its licensing/royalty-revenue model and long-duration IP into the 2040s.

We acquired Elektrofi as a part of our strategy to expand our drug delivery technology offerings.

Elektrofi's Hypercon technology offers a highly scalable licensing model with long-duration IP into the 2040s; royalty revenue contribution was expected to begin as early as 2030, with two partner programs projected to begin Hypercon-formulated clinical development by year-end 2026. Extends Halozyme's drug delivery licensing/royalty franchise alongside ENHANZE and Antares auto injector platforms; strengthens long-term growth into the 2040s with potential for individual product IP extension through proprietary reformulation. Elektrofi acquired as a wholly owned subsidiary and integrated into Halozyme's drug delivery technology business.

We look forward to welcoming Elektrofi's talented team as we embark on our next chapter of drug delivery innovation to continue to drive value for all of our stakeholders including our partners, patients, and shareholders.
Dr. Helen Torley, President and CEO, Halozyme
Since Elektrofi's founding, we have been committed to revolutionizing the delivery of biologic therapies so that patients can live life on their terms.
