Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
The Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2024 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The interim results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other interim period. The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 27, 2025 ("FY 2024 Form 10-K").
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the net change in cash.
Liquidity
From inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to drug discovery and development, conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, and pre-commercial infrastructure build-out and related activities. The Company has a limited operating history and the sales and income potential of the Company’s business and market are unproven. Successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2025.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $1.2 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investment securities, which the Company believes is sufficient to meet its funding requirements for at least the next 12 months.
The Company expects to continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future and believes it may need to raise substantial additional capital to accomplish its business objectives over the next several years. The Company plans to continue to fund its losses from operations and capital funding needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings or other sources as may be required, including potential collaborations, licenses and other similar arrangements. If the Company is not able to secure adequate additional funding, the Company may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible, or suspend or curtail planned programs. Any of these actions could materially harm the Company’s business, results of operations and prospects. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available in the future.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies from the FY 2024 Form 10-K, except as follows:
Deferred Compensation Plan
The Company has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that provides directors and certain employees the ability to defer receipt of current cash compensation and vested restricted stock units until a later date. The assets are held in a trust (the “Rabbi Trust”) and participants have the option to invest their cash deferrals in a fixed income investment, a defined set of mutual funds, and, with respect to deferrals of restricted stock units, in Company common stock. The Company has made an accounting policy election to assess instruments held in the Rabbi Trust at the instrument level. The assets of the Rabbi Trust are subject to the claims of creditors in the event that the Company becomes insolvent.
The deferred compensation liability related to cash deferrals as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $2.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and was included in other liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the deferred compensation asset related to cash deferrals of $2.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, was included in prepaid expenses and other assets, net of current portion in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in this liabilities balance are recorded to expense and reflected within operating expenses of our condensed consolidated statements ofoperations and comprehensive loss. Changes in the fair value of these assets are recorded within other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Investments in shares of the Company's common stock are included as stock held in trust, in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The participant's deferred compensation liability attributable to the participants' investments in shares of the Company's common stock are included within common stock and paid-in capital in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements requires it to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The estimates in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, accruals, valuation of stock-based awards, fair values of financial instruments, and revenue recognition.

Revenue is recognized on a gross basis as the Company is the principal. As there have been no sales to date, no sales-based milestones or royalties were recognized to date. Further, using the most-likely-method, the other developmental milestone payments are considered fully constrained.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company achieved a $1.0 million milestone for the first indication of the development milestones. As of June 30, 2024, the Company updated its estimated transaction price to $14.0 million and recorded a cumulative catch-up adjustment of $0.4 million.

- INVESTMENT IN RADIONETICS
In October 2021, the Company licensed its radiotherapeutics technology to Radionetics Oncology, Inc. in exchange for 50,500,000 shares of Radionetics' common stock (64% initial stake) and a warrant to maintain up to 22% equity in Radionetics on a fully diluted basis.
In August 2023, the Company participated in a refinancing transaction, exercising the warrant to purchase 3,407,285 shares of Radionetics common stock, exchanging 32,344,371 shares of Radionetics common stock for Radionetics preferred stock, and investing $5.0 million for an additional 14,404,656 shares of Radionetics preferred stock. The Radionetics license was also amended to include up to $15.0 million in new sales milestones.
In June 2024, the Radionetics license was amended to reduce development targets, reverting certain rights to the Company, and the Company is eligible to receive total potential sales milestones in excess of $300.0 million and single-digit royalties on net sales. In July 2024, Radionetics formed a strategic partnership with Eli Lilly and Company ("Lilly"), receiving a $140 million upfront payment and granting Lilly the exclusive right to acquire Radionetics for $1.0 billion.
Although Radionetics is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), the Company determined it is not the primary beneficiary and does not consolidate Radionetics’ results due to lack of control over key decisions, which rest with Radionetics’ independent board and management. As of June 30, 2025, the Company held a 25% ownership in Radionetics consisting of common and preferred stock and accounts for its investment under the equity method. The investment asset was previously written down to zero. No equity method losses were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and $0.5 million in losses were recorded during the same period in 2024.
R. Scott Struthers, Ph.D., the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, serves as chairman of the Radionetics board of directors. Pursuant to such arrangement, Dr. Struthers receives consideration in the form of both equity and a $50,000 annual retainer for his service as a board member of Radionetics. As of June 30, 2025, Dr. Struthers has an approximately 1.3% ownership stake in Radionetics, consisting of common stock. Reimbursements from Radionetics were immaterial during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

- NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. Dilutive common stock equivalents are comprised of common stock subject to repurchase and stock options outstanding under the Company’s stock option plan. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding as inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities on loss per share would be antidilutive.
Potentially dilutive securities (in common stock equivalent shares) not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive are as follows (in thousands):
