Pilavapadin originated from our collaborative neuroscience drug discovery efforts with Bristol-Myers Squibb and LX9851, sotagliflozin and compounds from a number of additional drug programs originated from our own internal drug discovery efforts. Our efforts were driven by a systematic, target biology-driven approach in which we used gene knockout technologies and an integrated platform of advanced medical technologies to systematically study the physiological and behavioral functions of almost 5,000 genes in mice and assessed the utility of the proteins encoded by the corresponding human genes as potential drug targets. We have identified and validated in living animals, or in vivo, more than 100 targets with promising profiles for drug discovery.

We record significant accrued liabilities related to unbilled expenses for products or services that we have received from service providers, specifically related to ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials. These costs primarily relate to clinical study management, monitoring, laboratory and analysis costs, drug supplies, toxicology studies and investigator grants. We may have multiple drug candidates in concurrent preclinical studies and clinical trials at clinical sites throughout the world. In order to ensure that we have adequately provided for ongoing preclinical and clinical development costs during the period in which we incur such costs, we maintain accruals to cover these expenses. Substantial portions of our preclinical studies and clinical trials are performed by third party laboratories, medical centers, contract research organizations and other vendors. For preclinical studies, we accrue expenses based upon estimated percentage of work completed and the contract milestones remaining. For clinical studies, expenses are accrued based upon milestones and the number of patients enrolled over the duration of the study. We monitor patient enrollment, the progress of clinical studies and related activities to the extent possible through internal reviews of data reported to us by the vendors and clinical site visits. Our estimates depend on the timeliness and accuracy of the data provided by our vendors regarding the status of each program and total program spending. We periodically evaluate the estimates to determine if adjustments are necessary or appropriate based on information we receive. Although we use consistent milestones or subject or patient enrollment to drive expense recognition, the assessment of these costs is a subjective process that requires judgment. Upon settlement, these costs may differ materially from the amounts accrued in our consolidated financial statements.

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024 were approximately $31.1 million and primarily consisted of the upfront payment of $25.0 million received from the Viatris licensing agreement and net product revenues of $6.0 million recognized from sales of INPEFA.
Current wording
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $49.8 million and primarily consisted of the upfront payment of $45 million received from our license agreement with Novo Nordisk and net product revenues of $4.6 million recognized from sales of INPEFA. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $31.1 million and primarily consisted of the upfront payment of $25.0 million received from the Viatris licensing agreement and net product revenues of $6.0 million recognized from sales of INPEFA.
Previous wording
Cost of sales for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 consist of third-party manufacturing costs and freight associated with sales of INPEFA. Prior to receiving regulatory approval of INPEFA on May 26, 2023, we had completed or begun the manufacturing of certain INPEFA raw materials. These raw materials were either received at “zero-cost” to us in conjunction with a terminated agreement in 2019 or recorded as research and development expense. Based on our expectations for future manufacturing costs, we estimate these amounts totaled approximately $39.0 million. We began capitalizing inventory manufactured subsequent to regulatory approval of INPEFA as the related costs were expected to be recoverable through the commercialization of the product. At December 31, 2024, substantially all of the “zero-cost” INPEFA raw materials remains available to us. However, the time period over which this inventory is consumed will depend on a number of factors that may include the amount of future INPEFA sales, use of this inventory to satisfy the manufacturing and supply agreement we have agreed to enter into with Viatris (see Note 7) or in clinical development or other research activities, production lead times, and/or the ability to utilize inventory prior to its expiration date. Any future sales of INPEFA will utilize this “zero-cost” inventory and will result in a lower average per unit cost of materials during that period. We estimate our cost of goods sold as a percentage of net product revenue will be less than 10% subsequent to the utilization of all of the remaining “zero-cost” inventory.
Current wording

We expect to continue to devote substantial capital resources to the research and development of our drug candidates and for other general corporate activities. We believe that our current unres tricted cash and investment balances and cash and revenues we expect to derive from strategic and other collaborations and other sources will be sufficient to fund our currently planned operations for at least the next 12 months from the date of this report. In future periods, if cash on hand or generated by operations is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we will need to obtain additional liquidity through future strategic and other collaborations or sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit arrangements. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing when needed, we may have to delay or reduce the scope of our commercialization efforts or one or more of our clinical trials and other research and development programs. Additional financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities may result in additional dilution to our stockholders.

•Facilities, equipment, and other – Facilities, equipment, and other costs relate primarily to rent, insurance, travel and training, and software licensing costs. Facilities, equipment, and other costs decreased 63% in 2025 to $5.4 million from $14.6 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower travel as a result of our restructuring in late 2024.
