NEXM news! NexMed, Inc. Leases Its Facility in New Jersey
NexMed, Inc. (Nasdaq: NEXM), a specialty CRO and a developer of products based on the NexACT® technology, today announced that it has signed an agreement to lease its facility in East Windsor, NJ, commencing February 1, 2010. The lease agreement also contains an option to purchase the facility during the term of the lease
Commenting on today’s news, NexMed’s Chief Financial Officer, Mark Westgate, said, “In light of our announcement earlier this week regarding the closing of the Bio-Quant acquisition, the timing is ideal, as we move our headquarters from New Jersey to San Diego. Additionally, the monthly rental payment will more than cover the existing debt service on our mortgage, thus making this a cash positive transaction. Further, the initial purchase option price which we have negotiated, of $4.4 million, is approximately $1.4 million above the existing debt on our building.”
