Overview

We are a biotechnology company that uses our robust, chemistry-driven approach and drug discovery capabilities to discover and develop small molecule drugs for virology and immunology indications.

Virology:

We discovered glecaprevir, the second of two antiviral protease inhibitors developed through our collaboration with AbbVie for the treatment of acute or chronic infection with hepatitis C virus, or HCV. Glecaprevir is co-formulated as part of AbbVie’s leading brand of direct-acting antiviral, or DAA, combination treatment for HCV, which has been marketed under the tradenames MAVYRET® (U.S.) and MAVIRET® (ex-U.S.) (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir) since 2017 for the treatment of chronic HCV. MAVYRET® was also approved as the first and only treatment for acute HCV infection in June 2025.

Our active development programs in virology are focused on respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, the most common cause of bronchiolitis and pneumonia and a leading cause of U.S. hospitalization in young children and a significant cause of respiratory illness in older adults. Populations at high risk for severe RSV infection include infants and young children, adults older than 65 years of age, and those with comorbidities such as chronic heart or lung disease. Recent CDC estimates suggest a significant RSV burden in the U.S., with up to 6.5 million outpatient visits, 350,000 hospitalizations and 23,000 deaths annually.

We also have clinical-stage programs in virology for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, and Hepatitis B virus, or HBV, the most prevalent chronic hepatitis.

Immunology:

In immunology, we are designing and developing highly potent and selective, oral small molecule inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 inflammatory disease by targeting key mechanisms of the immune response. An overactive response is a primary driver of a number of inflammatory diseases for which there is an enduring unmet need including atopic dermatitis, or AD, urticarias, asthma, prurigo nodularis, or PN, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, or CRSwNP, as well as some forms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, and other conditions. Based on industry reports, by 2030 the market is projected to be approximately $5 billion for urticaria, $30 billion for AD and $35 billion for the combined market of asthma, COPD, CRSwNP, and PN.

Our initial immunology targets involve the following mechanisms of immune response:

  • KIT, a receptor tyrosine kinase, critical for regulating mast cell survival and activation, including release of potent inflammatory mediators such as histamine, which is a primary driver of inflammation and implicated in multiple allergic diseases;
  • STAT6, a transcription factor uniquely responsible for interleukin-4, or IL-4, and interleukin-13, or IL-13, cell signaling, which drives a type 2 dominant phenotype and downstream inflammation; and
  • MRGPRX2, a non-canonical G-Protein-Coupled-Receptor (GPCR) expressed predominantly on mast cells, which upon activation triggers degranulation and release of inflammation mediating components, leading to an inflammatory response that is a driver in multiple allergic diseases.

These mechanisms are implicated, along with others, in several diseases, and it is not uncommon for an efficacious treatment for one disease to be tested and approved for other immunology indications. In addition, these mechanisms are orthogonal approaches that may provide additive or complementary benefit if used in combination. We currently plan to focus our initial immunology drug development, proof-of-concept efforts on the following disease indications:

  • Urticaria, including chronic spontaneous urticaria, or CSU, a severely debilitating, chronic inflammatory skin disease manifested by hives, angioedema, which is swelling of soft tissues, or both, but with no identified triggers, which has an estimated global prevalence of between 0.5% – 1% of the population, resulting in approximately 1.75–3.5 million people

with this condition at any given time in the U.S. alone or chronic inducible urticaria (CIndU) of various forms with a variety of known triggers; and

  • Atopic dermatitis, or AD, a chronic dermatological disease characterized by dry, red, inflamed, irritated and itchy skin with significant quality of life impacts such as leading a limited lifestyle, avoidance of social interactions and a reduced range of activities, with AD affecting 7.3% of the US adult population, of whom approximately 40% have moderate to severe disease.

As of December 31, 2025, we had $241.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities. Based on our operating plan, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities as of December 31, 2025, as well as the cash flows from our retained portion of future HCV royalties, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into fiscal 2029.

Our Wholly-Owned Programs

All of our development programs are wholly-owned, including our RSV and immunology programs.

RSV. We have two clinical stage candidates for RSV – zelicapavir (formerly EDP-938) and EDP-323. Both candidates inhibit viral replication and the production of new virions. These clinical candidates differ from fusion inhibitors, which act only at viral entry. Zelicapavir, which has Fast Track designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, is a potent inhibitor of the RSV N-protein. EDP-323, which also has a Fast Track designation from the FDA, is an inhibitor of the RSV L-protein.

  • Zelicapavir - N-protein Inhibitor Candidate: Zelicapavir, a once-daily, oral, direct-acting antiviral selectively targeting the N-protein, has demonstrated statistically significant reductions in RSV viral load and symptoms in a Phase 2 human challenge model clinical study. We believe that zelicapavir has the greatest potential to show optimal efficacy in high-risk populations since these patients have reduced RSV immunity or other comorbidities, which manifest in a higher and longer duration of viral replication and greater disease severity, allowing a bigger window to realize the full potential of zelicapavir. Our development program is focused on evaluating zelicapavir in high-risk populations, including high-risk adults and pediatric patients, all of which have significant unmet need:
  • High-Risk Adults Study of Zelicapavir. In September 2025, we announced positive topline results from a Phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating zelicapavir in high-risk adults with RSV, including those who are older than 65 years of age and those who have asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or congestive heart failure.
  • Pediatric Study of Zelicapavir. In December 2024, we announced positive topline results from the first-in-pediatrics Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating zelicapavir in hospitalized and non-hospitalized children aged 28 days to 36 months with RSV.

In these Phase 2 clinical studies, zelicapavir has demonstrated a favorable safety profile, consistent with that observed in over 700 subjects exposed to zelicapavir to date, as well as antiviral activity and reductions in symptom duration. We are continuing to conduct Phase 3 enabling activities for zelicapavir, with the goal of aligning with the FDA in the second quarter of 2026 on an adult Phase 3 trial design and overall registration path. In parallel, we are exploring potential business development opportunities to advance our RSV programs to the next stage of clinical development.

  • EDP-323 - L-protein Inhibitor Candidate: Our second clinical RSV candidate, EDP-323, is an oral, once-daily, direct-acting antiviral selectively targeting the RSV L-protein, a viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase enzyme that contains multiple enzymatic activities required for RSV replication. EDP-323 has sub-nanomolar potency in vitro and protected mice from RSV infection in a dose-dependent manner as demonstrated by both virological and pathological endpoints. EDP-323 is not expected to have cross-resistance to other classes of inhibitors and has the potential to be used alone, or in combination with other RSV mechanisms, to broaden the treatment window or addressable patient populations.
  • Phase 2a Study of EDP-323. In September 2024, we announced positive topline results for EDP-323 in a Phase 2a challenge study of healthy adults infected with RSV, which demonstrated statistically significant reductions in RSV viral load and symptoms. In addition, a post-exposure prophylaxis analysis was performed in subjects who were not infected by Day 5 after RSV exposure. The data showed the potential for EDP-323 to be effective in preventing RSV infection when initiated up to five days after RSV exposure.

Immunology. We are leveraging our expertise in developing small molecule inhibitors to design and develop highly potent and selective oral medicines targeting the following mechanisms of immune response:

  • KIT Inhibitors. We have a preclinical-stage program to develop oral KIT inhibitors for the treatment of CSU and potentially other mast cell-associated indications by depleting mast cells, thereby addressing a primary driver of these diseases. We have selected EDP-978 as our clinical candidate. EDP-978 demonstrates potent nanomolar activity in both

binding and cellular function assays, sub-nanomolar activity in vivo, and high selectivity for KIT versus other kinases. EDP-978 also demonstrates strong in vitro and in vivo absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion, or ADME, properties, supporting once-daily dosing. We are on track to file an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, for this program in the first quarter of 2026, with topline Phase 1 data expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.

  • STAT6 Inhibitors. We have a preclinical stage program to develop oral inhibitors of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 transcription factor, known as STAT6, for the treatment of type 2 immune-driven diseases. STAT6 is responsible for IL-4/IL-13 signaling, the pathway targeted by dupilumab, an IL-4 and IL-13 monoclonal antibody marketed as DUPIXENT®. We are initially focusing on AD for a proof-of-concept clinical study, and subsequently other indications where dupilumab is approved or has shown clinical activity. EPS-3903 is our lead development candidate, which has demonstrated nanomolar potency in both binding and cellular assays and is highly selective for STAT6 versus other STATs. EPS-3903 results in a rapid, continuous and complete (>90%) inhibition of phosphorylated STAT6 after oral dosing in mice. Importantly, EPS-3903 shows in vivo efficacy comparable to dupilumab, or an anti-mouse IL-4/IL-13 antibody, in multiple disease models of asthma (ovalbumin, house dust mite) and AD (MC903). EPS-3903 displays favorable in vitro and in vivo ADME properties, supportive of once-daily dosing potential. We are currently performing scale-up and IND enabling activities and are on track to file an IND in the second half of 2026.
  • MRGPRX2 Inhibitors. In January 2026, we announced a preclinical program targeting MRGPRX2, a non-canonical G protein-coupled receptor, or GPCR, expressed predominantly on mast cells, for the treatment of type 2 immune driven diseases. MRGPRX2 inhibitors act through non-depleting mast cell modulation, including IgE-independent pathways, and may have the potential to address multiple chronic inflammatory diseases, including urticaria, asthma, prurigo nodularis and others, with strong efficacy and a best-in-disease safety profile. Currently, our prototype inhibitors demonstrate MRGPRX2 inhibition with nanomolar potency (EC50 of 1-2nM) in cellular assays and prevent skin mast cell activation in humanized MRGPRX2 mouse models. Further, our prototype inhibitors show potent activity across multiple MRGPRX2 agonists, with high selectivity for MRGPRX2 versus other GPCRs. These prototypes also demonstrate favorable in vitro and in vivo ADME properties, supportive of once-daily dosing potential. We are continuing to evaluate multiple compounds in preclinical studies and expect to select a development candidate in the second half of 2026.

We have utilized our internal chemistry and drug discovery capabilities to generate all of our development-stage programs. We continue to invest substantial resources in research programs to discover compounds targeting new disease areas.

The following table summarizes our product development pipeline in our virology and immunology programs:

*Fixed-dose antiviral combination contains glecaprevir and AbbVie's NS5A inhibitor, pibrentasvir. Marketed by AbbVie as MAVYRET® (U.S.) and MAVIRET® (ex-U.S.).

**Continued development dependent on a future collaboration.

***Initial indications. Potential future indications include asthma, chronic inducible urticaria (CIndU), eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE); prurigo nodularis (PN), migraine and others.

Our Royalty Revenue Collaboration and Royalty Sale Agreement

Our royalty revenue is generated through our Collaborative Development and License Agreement with AbbVie, under which we have discovered and out-licensed to AbbVie two protease inhibitor compounds that have been clinically tested, manufactured, and commercialized by AbbVie as part of its combination regimens for HCV.

Glecaprevir is the HCV protease inhibitor we discovered that was developed by AbbVie in a fixed-dose combination with its NS5A inhibitor, pibrentasvir, for the treatment of chronic HCV. In June 2025 it was also approved by the FDA as the first and only treatment for acute HCV infection. This patented combination, currently marketed under the brand names MAVYRET® (U.S.) and MAVIRET® (ex-U.S.), is referred to in this report as MAVYRET/MAVIRET. The first protease inhibitor developed through this collaboration, paritaprevir, is part of AbbVie’s initial HCV regimens, which have been almost entirely replaced by MAVYRET/MAVIRET. Since August 2017, substantially all of our royalty revenue has been derived from AbbVie’s net sales of MAVYRET/MAVIRET. Our ongoing royalty revenues from this regimen consist of annually tiered, double-digit, per-product royalties on 50% of the calendar year net sales of the glecaprevir/pibrentasvir combination in MAVYRET/MAVIRET. The annual royalty tiers return to the lowest tier for sales on and after each January 1.

In April 2023, we entered into a royalty sale agreement with an affiliate of OMERS, a Canadian public employee pension fund, pursuant to which we were paid a $200.0 million cash purchase price in exchange for 54.5% of our future quarterly royalty payments on net sales of MAVYRET/MAVIRET, after June 30, 2023, through June 30, 2032, subject to a cap on aggregate payments to OMERS equal to 1.42 times the purchase price.

For accounting purposes, we continue to record 100% of HCV royalties earned under the AbbVie agreement as royalty revenue in our consolidated statements of operations. The $200.0 million received in April 2023 was recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a liability, which will be reduced by the payments made to OMERS over the term of the Agreement. We recognize imputed interest expense over the life of the royalty sale agreement based on our estimated future MAVYRET/MAVIRET royalties.

Financial Operations Overview

We are currently funding all research and development for our wholly-owned programs, which are targeted toward the discovery and development of novel compounds. We completed two Phase 2b studies of zelicapavir and a Phase 2a human challenge study of EDP-323, both of which are in our virology program. We also are conducting preclinical discovery research efforts in immunology.

As a result of the timing of our clinical and preclinical development programs, we expect our research and development expenses will fluctuate from period to period. However, in the next 12 months, we expect our external research and development expenses generally to decrease since we have completed our Phase 2 studies of zelicapavir and EDP-323 and we are exploring potential business development opportunities for the RSV programs.

To date, we have funded our operations primarily through royalty payments received under our collaboration agreement with AbbVie, a $200.0 million payment received in April 2023 from our royalty sale agreement and our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities. Based on our operating plan, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities, as well as the cash flows from our retained portion of future HCV royalties, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into fiscal 2029.

Revenue

Our revenue is primarily derived from our collaboration agreement with AbbVie and AbbVie’s sales of MAVYRET/MAVIRET, an 8-week treatment regimen for acute or chronic HCV.

The following table is a summary of revenue recognized for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(in thousands)

Revenue Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 2024
Royalty revenue $18,615 $16,959
Total revenue $18,615 $16,959

As disclosed above regarding our OMERS royalty sale agreement, we only retain 45.5% of the cash payments from royalties on net sales of MAVYRET/MAVIRET occurring after June 30, 2023 through June 30, 2032, subject to a cap on aggregate payments to OMERS equal to 1.42 times OMERS’ purchase price.

Internal Programs

As our internal product candidates are currently in preclinical or Phase 2 clinical development, we have not generated any revenue from our own product sales. We do not expect to generate any revenue from product sales derived from these product candidates for at least the next several years.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses are comprised of research and development expenses and general and administrative expenses.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred to conduct basic research, such as the discovery and development of novel small molecules as therapeutics, as well as any external expenses of preclinical and clinical development activities. We expense all costs of research and development as incurred. These expenses consist primarily of:

  • third-party contract costs relating to research, formulation, manufacturing, preclinical study, and clinical trial activities;
  • personnel costs, including salaries, related benefits, and stock-based compensation for employees engaged in scientific research and development functions;
  • allocated facility-related costs;
  • laboratory consumables; and
  • third-party license fees.

At any given time, we have later stage programs in clinical development as well as several active early-stage research and drug discovery projects. Our internal resources, employees and infrastructure are utilized across multiple projects, including our early-stage discovery projects. As such, we report information regarding costs incurred based on our programs (i.e., disease area) rather than on a project specific basis. All indirect costs are allocated to programs based on headcount and square footage of our facilities. We expect that our research and development expenses will fluctuate from period to period as we advance our research and development programs. However, in the next 12 months, we expect our external research and development expenses generally to decrease since we have completed our Phase 2 studies of zelicapavir and EDP-323 and we are exploring potential business development opportunities for our RSV programs. To date, we have not identified any significant impact of inflation on spending in research and development, but it is uncertain whether there will be inflationary impacts in future periods.

Our research and drug discovery and development programs are in early stages; therefore, the successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain and may not result in approved products. Completion dates and completion costs can vary significantly for each product candidate and are difficult to predict. Given the uncertainty associated with clinical trial enrollments and the risks inherent in the development process, we are unable to determine the duration and completion costs of the current or future clinical trials of our product candidates or if, or to what extent, we will generate revenue from the commercialization and sale of any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will make determinations as to which development programs to pursue and how much funding to direct to each program on an ongoing basis in response to the preclinical and clinical success and prospects of each product candidate, as well as ongoing assessments of the commercial potential of each product candidate.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, which include salaries, related benefits and stock-based compensation, of our executive, finance, business and corporate development and other administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include allocated facility-related costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance premiums, professional fees for auditing, tax, and legal services, patent expenses and litigation expenses associated with prosecuting our patent infringement litigation.

We expect that general and administrative expenses may increase in the long term. To date we have not experienced a significant impact of inflation on general and administrative expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) consists of interest expense, interest and investment income, net and the change in fair value of our outstanding Series 1 nonconvertible preferred stock. Interest expense consists of the interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the royalty sale agreement with an affiliate of OMERS. Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash equivalents and marketable securities balances. Investment income consists of the amortization or accretion of any purchased premium or discount, respectively, on our marketable securities. The change in fair value of our Series 1 nonconvertible preferred stock relates to the remeasurement of these financial instruments from period to period as these instruments may require a transfer of assets because of the liquidation preference features of the underlying instrument.

Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

Income tax (expense) benefit is based on our best estimate of taxable net income (loss), applicable income tax rates, net research and development tax credits and carryforwards, net operating loss carrybacks and interest earned on such refunds, changes in valuation allowance estimates and deferred income taxes.

Revenue

We recognized revenue of $18.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $17.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024. The $1.7 million increase in revenue was primarily due to AbbVie’s higher reported HCV sales as compared to the same period in 2024.

Our royalty revenues eligible to be earned in the future will depend on AbbVie’s HCV market share, the pricing of the MAVYRET/MAVIRET regimen, the number of patients treated and the effect of the label expansion for MAVYRET in the United States for the treatment of patients with acute HCV. In addition, at the beginning of each calendar year (the second quarter of our fiscal year), our royalty rate resets to the lowest tier for each of our royalty-bearing products licensed to AbbVie.

Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2023, 54.5% of our quarterly royalty payments on net sales of MAVYRET/MAVIRET that are included in our total revenue are paid to OMERS through June 30, 2032, subject to a cap on aggregate payments equal to 1.42 times the purchase price. The $200.0 million received in April 2023 was recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a liability which will be reduced by the payments made to OMERS over the term of the royalty sale agreement. We will continue to record 100% of HCV royalties earned under the AbbVie Agreement as royalty revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations since the AbbVie Agreement has not been amended and is independent of our agreement with OMERS.

21

Research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $6.8 million compared to the same period in 2024.

Virology

The costs in our virology programs decreased by $13.5 million primarily due to the timing of clinical trials in our RSV programs.

Immunology

The costs in our immunology programs increased by $5.6 million due to scale-up and IND-enabling activities for such programs.

Other Programs

Other program costs increased by $1.1 million as we advanced early-stage drug discovery efforts.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased by $3.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease was due to a decrease in stock-based compensation expenses and a decrease in legal expenses related to our patent infringement suit against Pfizer for the ’953 Patent.

Other income (expense)

Changes in components of other income (expense) were as follows:

Interest expense

Interest expense increased by $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, due to an increase in royalties arising from AbbVie’s product sales under the AbbVie Agreement and corresponding royalty payment to OMERS arising from such sales pursuant to our OMERS royalty sales agreement.

Interest and investment income, net

Interest and investment income, net, decreased by $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease was due to lower interest rates year over year.

Income tax (expense) benefit

The income tax expense during the three months ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to state income taxes. The income tax benefit during the three months ended December 31, 2024 related to interest recorded on our $33.8 million federal tax refund, which we received in April 2025.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which includes several changes to U.S. federal income tax law, including the temporary and permanent extension of expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, such as 100% bonus depreciation and immediate expensing of domestic research and development costs. The new legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others in the future. We determined that the legislation does not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We fund our operations with cash flows from our retained portion of our royalty revenue and our existing financial resources. At December 31, 2025, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities of $241.9 million.

The following table shows a summary of our cash flows:

(in thousands)

Cash provided by (used in): Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 2024
Operating activities $(11,699) $(16,801)
Investing activities (47,298) 68,903
Financing activities 64,136 (4,986)
Net increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $5,139 $47,116

22

Net cash used in operating activities

Cash used in operating activities was $11.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to cash used in operating activities of $16.8 million for the same period in 2024. Our cash used in operating activities decreased $5.1 million primarily due to lower research and development payments.

Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities

Cash used in investing activities was $47.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to cash provided by investing activities of $68.9 million for the same period in 2024. Our cash used in investing activities increased $116.2 million, driven by the timing of purchases and maturities of marketable securities in 2025 compared to 2024.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $64.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $5.0 million for the same period in 2024. Our cash provided by financing activities increased $69.1 million, driven primarily by proceeds received from our public offering which closed in October 2025.

Funding Requirements

As of December 31, 2025, we had $241.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities. Based on our operating plan, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities as of December 31, 2025, as well as the cash flows from our retained portion of future HCV royalties, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into fiscal 2029. However, our projection of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary materially.

Our future capital requirements are difficult to forecast and will depend on many factors, including:

  • the number and characteristics of our research and development programs;
  • the scope, progress, results and costs of researching and developing our product candidates on our own, including conducting advanced clinical trials;
  • our ability to establish new collaborations, licensing or other arrangements, if any, and the financial terms of such arrangements;
  • the amount of our retained portion of royalties generated from MAVYRET/MAVIRET sales under our existing collaboration with AbbVie;
  • delays and additional expenses in our clinical trials;
  • the cost of manufacturing our product candidates for clinical development and any products we successfully commercialize independently;
  • opportunities to in-license or otherwise acquire new technologies and therapeutic candidates;
  • costs associated with prosecuting our patent infringement litigation regarding use of a coronavirus 3CL protease inhibitor in Paxlovid, Pfizer's antiviral treatment for COVID-19;
  • the timing of, and the costs involved in, obtaining regulatory approvals for any product candidates we develop independently;
  • the cost of commercialization activities, if any, of any product candidates we develop independently that are approved for sale, including marketing, sales and distribution costs;
  • the timing and amount of any sales of our product candidates, if any, or royalties thereon;
  • the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending and enforcing patents, including any litigation costs and the outcomes of any such litigation; and
  • potential fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet financing activities. We do not have any interest in entities referred to as variable interest entities, which include special purpose entities and other structured finance entities.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Facility Leases

As of the date of this report, we lease space in Watertown, Massachusetts, under two separate lease agreements with one landlord.

In May 2022, we entered into a ten-year lease for new laboratory and office space in Watertown, Massachusetts, adjacent to our 400 Talcott Avenue premises at Arsenal on the Charles at 4 Kingsbury Avenue since our lease for office and laboratory space at 500 Arsenal Street was to expire on September 1, 2027. The construction of the facility shell was completed and we gained access to the building to construct tenant improvements during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Upon gaining access to the 4 Kingsbury Avenue building, we capitalized a right-of-use asset and lease liability of approximately $32 million on our consolidated balance sheets which reflects our fixed base rent payments, net of approximately $15 million of a tenant improvement allowance provided by the landlord, over the 10-year term of the lease. The 4 Kingsbury Avenue lease ends on September 30, 2034.

In conjunction with the commencement of our lease at 4 Kingsbury Avenue, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, we adjusted our 500 Arsenal Street lease liability to shorten the expiration date from September 2027 to the date the 4 Kingsbury Avenue building became ready for our occupancy. This resulted in a decrease in the lease liability and right-of-use asset on our consolidated balance sheets by approximately $9.0 million. The rent commencement date for our 4 Kingsbury Avenue lease was September 12, 2024, and we moved into the space in November 2024, at which time our lease at 500 Arsenal Street expired.

The second lease for office space located at 400 Talcott Avenue commenced on September 24, 2018 for a term of six years. In May 2022, we amended this lease to expand the rented space and extend the lease term through June 1, 2034. We spent approximately $6.3 million in capital expenditures for the additional space, which primarily relate to tenant improvements. We received a tenant improvement allowance from the landlord of $2.5 million. In July 2024, we amended our lease agreement to confirm alignment with the lease end date of our 4 Kingsbury Avenue lease at September 30, 2034.

Total estimated minimum lease payments for the next 5 years and thereafter under our existing facility and leased equipment agreements are $5.7 million for the remainder of 2026, $8.7 million in 2027, $9.0 million in 2028, $9.3 million in 2029, $9.5 million in 2030, and $41.1 million thereafter.

OMERS Agreement

In April 2023, we entered into a royalty sale agreement with an affiliate of OMERS, pursuant to which we were paid a $200.0 million cash purchase price in exchange for 54.5% of our future quarterly royalty payments on net sales of MAVYRET/MAVIRET after June 30, 2023, through June 30, 2032, subject to a cap on aggregate payments equal to 1.42 times the purchase price.

The $200.0 million received in April 2023 was recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as a liability which will be reduced by the payments made to OMERS over the term of the Agreement.

Preferred Stock

As of December 31, 2025, we had 1.9 million outstanding shares of Series 1 nonconvertible preferred stock, all of which we classified as a long-term liability on our consolidated balance sheet and recorded at fair value of $1.3 million. The fair value of the preferred stock was measured based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represented a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of these instruments represents less than 10% of liabilities as of December 31, 2025. The Series 1 nonconvertible preferred stock issued would require the payment of $2.0 million in the event of a qualifying merger or sale of the company.
