We have incurred significant operating losses since our inception. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred net losses of $111.7 million and $303.4 million, respectively. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our product candidates at our wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities. While we have undertaken activities in preparation for commercial launch readiness for our late-stage programs and a restructuring initiative to drive operational change in business processes, efficiencies and cost savings, we expect to continue to incur significant operating and net losses for at least the next several years. In addition, we have very limited experience with commercialization, and we may not be able to generate significant revenues from product sales, if any, even if any of our product candidates are approved for commercial sale. Further, we may not realize the anticipated efficiencies and other benefits of our past and any future restructuring initiatives. Additionally, failure to secure FDA approval for acoramidis will result in our inability to receive a $500.0 million milestone payment pursuant to the Funding Agreement, which would significantly harm our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

GondolaBio was formed on June 5, 2024 and the Company was the sole member. On August 16, 2024, based on the recommendation of a special committee of independent and disinterested directors of BridgeBio, we entered into a transaction agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) providing for the formation and funding by certain third party investors of GondolaBio, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GondolaBio”), a legal joint venture entity for the purpose of researching, developing, manufacturing and commercializing pharmaceutical products, including certain assets contributed to GondolaBio by BridgeBio. The investors providing financing to GondolaBio consist of an investor syndicate, including Viking Global Investors LP, Patient Square Capital, Sequoia Capital, Frazier Life Sciences, Cormorant Asset Management, Aisling Capital and an entity owned by Neil Kumar, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The investors have committed $300.0 million of tranched financing to GondolaBio, of which $60.0 million had been contributed as of September 30, 2024. We contributed certain assets and our equity in Portal Therapeutics, Inc. and Sub21, Inc. to GondolaBio. Upon completion of the initial contributions, the Company’s equity ownership in GondolaBio was 45.5%, which had a fair value of $50.0 million, and will be subject to reduction as additional tranches of capital contributions are funded. On August 16, 2024, in conjunction with the Transaction Agreement, GondolaBio’s limited liability company agreement was amended and restated to reflect a change in its governance structure and composition of the board of managers, which was determined to be a VIE reconsideration event. Based on the VIE reconsideration assessment, GondolaBio was deemed a VIE. As a result of the change in governance structure and composition of the board of managers, we are no longer the primary beneficiary, as we no longer have the power over key decisions that significantly impact GondolaBio’s economic performance. Accordingly, we deconsolidated GondolaBio, inclusive of Portal Therapeutics, Inc. and Sub21, Inc., on August 16, 2024. On August 16, 2024, we recognized an approximate $52.0 million net gain from deconsolidation of subsidiaries which is presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Upon the deconsolidation of GondolaBio, we accounted for our investment in GondolaBio, for which we had significant influence through our ownership interest, using the equity method of accounting as of August 16, 2024. GondolaBio was also deemed a related party. For the period August 16, 2024 through September 30, 2024, we recognized a net loss from equity method investment of $1.4 million. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate carrying amount of our equity method investment in GondolaBio is $48.6 million and is presented as part of “Investment in nonconsolidated entities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In January 2022, we committed to a restructuring initiative designed to drive operational changes in our business processes, efficiencies and cost savings to advance our corporate strategy and development programs. The restructuring initiative included, among other components, consolidation and rationalization of our facilities, reprioritization of development programs and the reduction in our workforce. In March 2024, upon entering into the Bayer Agreement and termination of the Navire-BMS License Agreement (refer to Note 11 for details regarding these transactions), we have committed to additional restructuring plans to reprioritize and advance our corporate strategy and development programs. We estimate that we will incur a remaining $12.0 million to $16.0 million in restructuring charges, consisting primarily of winding down costs, exit and other related costs, and severance and employee-related costs. Our estimate of the costs is subject to certain assumptions and actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions. We may also incur additional costs that are not currently foreseeable as we continue to evaluate our restructuring alternatives to drive operational changes in business processes, efficiencies and cost savings. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our restructuring, impairment and related charges amounted to $6.3 million and $6.9 million, respectively, which consisted primarily of winding down costs, exit and other related costs, impairments and write-offs of long-lived assets, and severance and employee-related costs.

Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred net losses of $111.7 million. We had an accumulated deficit as of June 30, 2024 of $2.7 billion. While we have undertaken activities in preparation for commercial launch readiness for our late-stage programs and a restructuring initiative to drive operational change in business processes, efficiencies and cost savings, we expect to continue to incur significant operating and net losses over the next several years as we continue to fund our drug development and discovery efforts. In particular, to the extent we advance our programs into and through later-stage clinical trials without a partner, we will incur substantial expenses. In addition, we have very limited experience with commercialization, and we may not be able to generate significant revenues from product sales, if any, even if any of our product candidates are approved for commercial sale. Further, we may not realize the anticipated efficiencies and other benefits of our past and any future restructuring initiatives. Our current business plan is also subject to significant uncertainties and risks as a result of, among other factors, our ability to generate product sales sufficient to achieve profitability, which will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of product candidates at our consolidated entities as well as our ability to partner in the development of certain clinical programs, as well as the levels of our operating expenses. Additionally, failure to secure FDA approval for acoramidis will result in our inability to receive a $500.0 million milestone payment pursuant to the Funding Agreement, which would significantly harm our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
