Current report
See above table. Casdozokitug and tagmokitug are our two pipeline product candidates with on-going clinical trials. The reduction in internal costs includes a $1.9 million decrease in facilities, supplies, material and other infrastructure costs and a $1.1 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense.
Current report
We expect our fixed research and development expenses in 2026 to be lower than in 2025 primarily due to lower expenditures on manufacturing-related development activities and reduced headcount. Total overall research and development expenses, which includes external clinical costs, will be a function of data readouts and our ongoing portfolio prioritization process.
Current report
The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by a lower average headcount and decreased operating costs following our 2025 exit from the biosimilar business. This resulted in a reduction of $2.2 million in employee-related costs, including stock-based compensation.
Current report
During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we completed the sale and issuance of 32,890,000 Offering Shares, which included the Underwriters’ Optional Shares. We received net proceeds of $53.6 million, after deducting the Underwriters’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.
Current report
Since certain contracts with third parties related to the divested biosimilar businesses could not immediately be transitioned to the buyers in the Sale Transactions at the respective divestiture dates, generally because the contracts did not allow for assignment, we remained a legal party to transactions occurring after the closings, often functioning as an agent on behalf of the buyer. These transactions are presented within TSA receivables, net and TSA payables and accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and they generally do not have a net effect on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The use of cash to settle TSA payables and accrued liabilities is expected to occur in a front-loaded fashion over the remainder of 2026. The CIMERLI and YUSIMRY TSAs were substantially completed as of December 31, 2025.
Current report
In addition, in connection with the divestiture of the UDENYCA Business, we have certain contractual obligations related to inventory replacement under a legacy customer agreement. Pursuant to the terms of that agreement, we may be required to pay Accord for replacing certain inventory in specified circumstances. Our maximum potential exposure under this obligation is approximately $5.9 million. As of March 31, 2026, no amounts have been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements related to this matter. We will continue to assess this matter each reporting period and recognize a liability at such time as reimbursement is required.
Current report
Net cash used in operating activities of $57.9 million and $25.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, was primarily due to commercial activity, research and development activities and selling, general and administrative expenses to support those activities. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, included, among other items: non-cash stock-based compensation expense, non-cash depreciation and amortization, non-cash changes in fair values related to derivative liabilities, and non-cash interest expense on financial liabilities related to revenue participation right purchase agreements and debt.
Current report
Cash provided by investing activities of $30.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily due to $38.1 million cash received from maturities of investments, offset by $6.4 million purchases of investments in marketable securities.
Current report
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Current report
Cash provided by financing activities of $53.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was mainly due to proceeds from issuance of common stock in connection with Public Offering, net of issuance costs.

These reductions were partially offset bya $1.6 million net impairment charge in the third quarter of 2025 relating to the write-off of the net carrying value of the out-license intangible asset of $2.1 million and the final remeasurement of the CVR liability of $0.5 million related to GSK4381562 to its fair value of zero (see Note 5.

Previous report
The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense from continuing operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to a lower average headcount resulting in reductions of $8.7 million in employee-related costs including stock-based compensation, the $6.8 million net impairment charge in the first quarter of 2024 relating to the write-off of the net carrying value of the out-license intangible asset of $10.6 million and the final remeasurement of the CVR liability of $3.8 million related to NZV930 to its fair value of zero, lower professional fees of $3.6 millionand a reduction of $1.4 million in facilities, supplies and materials and other related expenses to support our commercial infrastructure.

Previous report
Other income (expense), net from continuing operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 changed unfavorably compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to a reduction of certain TSA reimbursements classified in other income of $1.8 million, a decrease in foreign exchange gains of $1.3 million, and the change in fair value of the LOQTORZI Royalty Fee Derivative Liability of $0.8 million, partially offset by an increase in interest and investment income of $2.6 million.
Previous report
The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily driven by the $162.0 million favorable change in gain on Sale Transactions (2025 period included the UDENYCA gain and 2024 period included CIMERLI and YUSIMRY gains) and lower cost of goods sold of $51.5 million, partially offset by lower net revenue and an $11.8 million charge in the first quarter of 2025 for the change in fair value of the Royalty Fee Derivative Liability related to UDENYCA.

The increase in LOQTORZI net revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in the prior year was driven primarily by volume growth of LOQTORZI, which launched in December 2023.

We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Further, our operating plan may change, and we may need additional funds to meet operational needs and capital requirements for product development and commercialization sooner than planned. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development and commercialization of our product candidates and the extent to which we may enter into additional agreements with third parties to participate in their development and commercialization, we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenditures associated with our current and anticipated research and development activities, and on-going and future licensing and collaboration obligations. We may need to raise additional funds in the future; however, there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful or that, if they are successful, the terms and conditions of such financing will be favorable. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the following:
