The U.S. biotechnology sector is facing an unprecedented liquidity crisis, with nearly 40% of companies projected to exhaust their cash within one year, marking the most severe and prolonged downturn in recent history. This capital scarcity has fundamentally reshaped financing dynamics, concentrating funding on later-stage, de-risked assets while sharply constraining early-stage innovation. At the same time, depressed valuations have created compelling opportunities for strategic investors, large pharmaceutical companies, and well-capitalized buyers through licensing, consolidation, and pipeline acquisitions. Royalty financing has emerged as a critical non-dilutive funding alternative, more than doubling in scale over the past five years as companies seek to preserve equity amid weak public and private markets. For foreign biotech firms, the U.S. remains a vital but challenging market, requiring careful navigation of elevated costs, regulatory complexity, and innovative financing strategies to capitalize on liquidity-driven opportunities.
America’s multifamily market is supply constrained, while conventional construction credit remains selective.
