Moderna, Inc. · 2026-07-31 · Importance 75 · Surprise 60 · No source text

Moderna paid $950 million in July 2026 related to a litigation settlement announced in the first quarter of 2026. The company’s 2026 cost-of-sales outlook includes a $0.9 billion non-recurring litigation settlement charge. The payment contributed to the reduction in cash, cash equivalents and investments from $7.5 billion at March 31, 2026 to $6.9 billion at June 30, 2026. The settlement is also reflected in the company’s improved 2026 year-end cash projection of $4.7 billion to $5.2 billion, which excludes further credit-facility drawdowns.
