The refinancing deal extends Inventiva's cash runway well into 2028, eliminates the dilutive overhang from EIB warrants, and provides a clear pathway to fund the NATiV3 trial through top-line results. The forced conversion mechanism at 175% and the conversion price premium reflect moderate dilution risk but strong debt restructuring terms. Monitor for NATiV3 trial data, which triggers potential Tranche C drawdown and equity-linked pricing reset. The 94% bull analyst consensus already prices in some of this positive capital structure cleanup.

Executive Summary
Inventiva S.A. filed a 6-K attaching a Subscription Agreement with funds managed by BlackRock and Claret Capital Partners for a comprehensive debt restructuring deal totaling €130M (expandable to €150M) and a Master Agreement with the EIB to repurchase EIB warrants and prepay the EIB loan. The transaction includes a €120M ADS offering closed yesterday, paving the way to replace existing EIB debt with new secured financing from BlackRock/Claret.
Key Facts
- Inventiva entered a Subscription Agreement with BlackRock and Claret Capital for €130M (expandable to €150M) in amortized bonds and convertible bonds (OCAs).
- The deal includes a €35M OCA tranche (9.9% interest) and €40M Tranche B amortized bonds (9.9% cash + 2.1% PIK), plus an optional €55M Tranche C and €20M non-committed tranche conditional on NATiV3 results.
- A simultaneous $120M ADS offering at $4.40/ADS closed on June 2, 2026, satisfying the condition to raise at least €90M in equity.
- The company entered a Master Agreement with the EIB to prepay the entire €50M EIB loan and repurchase 2,966,023 EIB warrants for €50M, eliminating the EIB's ant-dilution protections and restructuring remaining warrants.
- The OCA conversion price is set at a 40% premium to a 30-day VWAP floor, with a forced conversion threshold at 175% of the conversion price.
- Post-closing, the company must maintain a minimum €30M cash balance, and upon NATiV3 success, an additional €75M cash balance requirement applies.
Financial Impact
€130M new debt facility replacing €50M EIB loan, plus $120M equity raise (€112.8M net) — total new cash estimated at ~€230M.
Risk Factors
- Conversion of €35M OCAs into shares at a 40% premium to VWAP could still result in significant dilution if the stock price remains depressed.
- Failure of the NATiV3 trial (Primary Composite Endpoint) triggers a Termination Event with mandatory prepayment and potential acceleration of all debt.
- The company posted a $354M net loss and declining revenue in 2025 — the new debt at 9.9%+ interest adds heavy fixed cost for a pre-commercial firm.
- Tranche C and the €20M non-committed tranche only become available upon NATiV3 success and additional T3 warrant exercise — no guarantee of execution.
