Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings Inc

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Corbus Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Accruals for Research and Development Expenses

As described in Note 3 to the financial statements, at each balance sheet date, the Company estimates its accrued pre-clinical and clinical expenses resulting from its obligations under contracts with vendors, clinical research organizations and consultants in connection with performing pre-clinical and clinical work in preparation for and related to clinical trials, and in making that estimate, may depend on factors such as successful enrollment of certain numbers of patients, site initiation, and the completion of contract milestones. The Company accounts for research and development expenses based on services that have been performed on the Company’s behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service when an invoice has not been received, or the Company has not otherwise been notified of the actual cost. The Company estimates the time period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period. The Company’s accrual for pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses of $2.7 million is included in Accrued expenses on the December 31, 2024, consolidated balance sheet. The amounts recorded for accrued pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses represent the Company’s estimate of the unpaid pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses based on the information available to the Company at that time. The estimation of accrued pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses was also identified as a critical accounting estimate by management.

We identified the accruals for research and development expenses as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgment and estimation required by management in determining progress or state of completion of trials or services completed. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor subjectivity and significant audit effort was required in performing our procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to estimates made by management.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the financial statements. We obtained an understanding and evaluated the design of controls over the Company’s estimation of accrued pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses, including the process of estimating the expenses incurred to date based on the status of the pre-clinical and clinical work. Our procedures also included, among others, reading agreements and contract amendments entered into with vendors in connection with conducting pre-clinical trials, evaluating the significant assumptions described above and the methods used in developing the pre-clinical trial estimates and calculating the amounts that were unpaid at the balance sheet date. We confirmed the assumptions directly with a sample of the third parties involved in performing the research and development services on behalf of the Company, where applicable. We also made direct inquiries of financial and pre-clinical client personnel regarding status, and progress towards completion, of pre-clinical trials and the description of future commitments, and verified amounts paid to date under each contract by vouching to invoices and payment support. We also assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates, and compared the current estimate of expenses incurred to estimates previously made by management.
