Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of interest expense on our debt instruments, interest income on our cash, cash equivalents and investments, amortization of investment premium or accretion of investment discount, unrealized gain or loss from our investment in our strategic investments, the changes in the fair value of the derivative assets associated with the capped call options for our convertible senior notes due on November 15, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and the changes in the fair value of contingent consideration related to regulatory-related contingent payments meeting the definition of a derivative liability. Our cash equivalents and investments consist of money market funds, corporate bonds, government and government agency debt securities and certificates of deposit. 

Other income, net for 2024 increased by approximately $9.6 million compared to 2023. The change is primarily due to the impairment of a strategic investment during 2023, with no similar activity during 2024. This change was partially offset by a decrease in interest income and accretion of investment discount, net as a result of lower interest rates and the investment mix of our investment portfolio and an increase in the fair value of derivatives, primarily related to contingent consideration.

Loss on debt extinguishment 

On March 2, 2023, we entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements with certain holders of the outstanding 2024 Notes, which resulted in an exchange of $313.5 million in aggregate principal value of the 2024 Notes for approximately 4.5 million shares of our common stock (the “2024 Notes Exchange”). The exchange was not pursuant to the conversion privileges included in the terms of the debt at issuance and, therefore, was accounted for as a debt extinguishment, resulting in a recognition of an extinguishment loss of $387.3 million for 2023. There was no similar activity in 2024.

Gain from sale of Priority Review Voucher 

In June 2023, we entered into an agreement to sell the rare pediatric disease Priority Review Voucher (“ELEVIDYS PRV”) we received from the FDA in connection with the approval of ELEVIDYS for consideration of $102.0 million, with no commission costs. The transaction was not subject to the conditions set forth under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and closed in June 2023. The net proceeds were recorded
