For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, Cara recorded royalty revenue of approximately $167,000 and $415,000, respectively, which represented its royalties on net sales of Kapruvia.

Pursuant to the Original HCR Agreement, HCR will receive current and future royalty and milestone payments for Kapruvia and KORSUVA (ex-U.S. only) up to certain capped amounts in exchange for certain payments made to Cara. As a result, there was no royalty revenue recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. However, Cara recorded other revenue of approximately $1.3 million and $2.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, of which approximately $0.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, related to CSL Vifor royalties to be paid to HCR under this agreement (see “Royalty Purchase and Sale Agreement” below).

Cara has out-licensed to Maruishi and its sub-licensee Kissei the commercialization of KORSUVA injection in Japan. In September 2023, Maruishi received manufacturing and marketing approval from Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare for KORSUVA IV Injection Syringe for the treatment of pruritus in hemodialysis patients.

Pursuant to the Original HCR Agreement, Cara sold its future royalties and milestones for KORSUVA in Japan to HCR. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, Cara recorded other revenue of approximately $1.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of which approximately $0.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively, related to Maruishi royalties to be paid to HCR under this agreement (see “— Royalty Purchase
