Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONS OLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  1. Organization

Description of Business

ImageneBio, Inc. (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for patients with immunological, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The Company’s program IMG-007 is a non-depleting anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody (“mAb”) which binds specifically to OX40 receptor on activated T cells to block their binding to OX40 ligand (“OX40L”).

The Merger

On July 25, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Delaware corporation formerly known as “Ikena Oncology, Inc.” (“Ikena”) completed its previously announced merger with Inmagene Biopharmaceuticals, a privately held exempted company with limited liability incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Legacy Inmagene”). The transaction was completed in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 23, 2024 ( the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Ikena, Insight Merger Sub I, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ikena (“Merger Sub I”), Insight Merger Sub II, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Ikena (“Merger Sub II”), and Legacy Inmagene, providing for the merger of Merger Sub I with and into Legacy Inmagene, with Legacy Inmagene surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ikena (such transaction, the “First Merger”), and the subsequent merger of the surviving entity of the First Merger with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ikena (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Merger”). In addition, on July 25, 2025, Ikena changed its name from “Ikena Oncology, Inc.” to “ImageneBio, Inc.”

Prior to the effective time of the First Merger (the “First Effective Time”), Ikena effected a 1-for-12 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its issued common stock (“Ikena Common Stock”). At the First Effective Time, (i) each ordinary share and preferred share of Legacy Inmagene (each such share, a “Legacy Inmagene Share”) held as treasury shares immediately prior to the First Effective Time were canceled and ceased to exist, and no consideration was delivered in exchange therefor, (ii) each then-outstanding Legacy Inmagene Share was converted into the right to receive 0.0030510 shares of Ikena Common Stock (such ratio, the “Exchange Ratio”) and (iii) each then-outstanding option to purchase Legacy Inmagene Shares was converted into an option to purchase Ikena Common Stock, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement.

All references to common stock, options to purchase common stock, common stock share data, per share data, preferred shares and related information contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Exchange Ratio for all periods presented, including the change from ordinary shares to common stock, unless otherwise specifically indicated or the context otherwise requires.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company determined that Legacy Inmagene was the accounting acquirer and Ikena was the accounting acquiree of the Merger in accordance ASC Topic 805. Management concluded that Legacy Inmagene was the accounting acquirer primarily due to: (i) the Legacy Inmagene stockholders receiving the largest portion of the voting rights in the Company following the First Merger, (ii) Legacy Inmagene’s largest shareholder retained the largest interest in the Company, (iii) Legacy Inmagene designated three of the six members to the Company’s Board of Directors on the closing of the Merger, and (iv) certain members of Legacy Inmagene’s executive management team became the management of the Company. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the historical operations of Legacy Inmagene for accounting purposes together with the issuance of shares to the former stockholders of Ikena, the legal acquirer, and a recapitalization of the equity of Legacy Inmagene, the accounting acquirer.

Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Legacy Inmagene together with its consolidated subsidiaries for periods prior to the Merger and to ImageneBio, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries for periods following the Merger; references to “Ikena” refer to Ikena Oncology, Inc. for periods prior to the Merger; references to “Legacy Inmagene” refer to Inmagene Biopharmaceuticals together with its consolidated subsidiaries for periods prior to the Merger; and references to “common stock” include the Company’s voting and non-voting common stock for periods following the Merger and to Legacy Inmagene’s ordinary shares for periods prior to the Merger.

PIPE Financing

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Ikena entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors (the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which, immediately following the closing of the Second Merger, the PIPE Investors subscribed for and purchased, and Ikena issued and sold, an aggregate of 2,508,339 shares of Ikena Common Stock in a private placement at a price of approximately $29.90 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $75.0 million (the “PIPE Financing”).

CVR Agreements

Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, Ikena and the designated rights agent entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “Ikena CVR Agreement”), pursuant to which Ikena stockholders of record as of the close of business on July 24, 2025 received one contingent value right (each, an “Ikena CVR”) for each outstanding share of Ikena Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date.

Pursuant to the Ikena CVR Agreement, each Ikena CVR holder will be entitled to certain rights to receive (i)100% of the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company as a result of contingent payments (“Ikena CVR Payments”) made to the Company, such as milestone, royalty or earnout payments, received under any disposition agreements related to Ikena’s pre-Merger assets, including but not limited to IK-595 (the “Ikena CVR Assets”), including pursuant to any out-license agreements, entered into prior to the Closing Date and (ii)90% of the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company as a result of Ikena CVR Payments received under any disposition agreements related to the Ikena CVR Assets entered into after the Closing Date and prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Disposition Period”). Such proceeds are subject to certain permitted deductions, including for applicable tax payments, certain expenses incurred by the Company or its affiliates, and losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Company or its affiliates due to a third-party proceeding in connection with a disposition and certain wind-down costs. The Company has not entered into any transactions subject to the Ikena CVR Agreement. No estimated value has been attributed to the agreement as of and for the period ended September 30, 2025.

Immediately prior to the First Effective Time, Ikena, Legacy Inmagene and the designated rights agent entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “Legacy Inmagene CVR Agreement”), pursuant to which Legacy Inmagene’s shareholders of record as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time received one contingent value right (each, a “Legacy Inmagene CVR”) for each outstanding Legacy Inmagene Share held by such shareholder on such date. Pursuant to the Legacy Inmagene CVR Agreement, each Legacy Inmagene CVR holder will be entitled to certain rights to receive (i)100% of the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company as a result of contingent payments (“Legacy Inmagene CVR Payments”) made to the Company under any disposition agreement related to the programs and projects controlled by Legacy Inmagene any time prior to the Closing Date (other than its anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody asset, IMG-007) (the “Legacy Inmagene CVR Assets”), which agreement is entered into prior to the Closing Date and (ii)90% of the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company as a result of Legacy Inmagene CVR Payments received under any disposition agreement related to the Legacy Inmagene CVR Assets entered into during the Disposition Period. Such proceeds are subject to certain permitted deductions, including for applicable tax payments, certain expenses incurred by the Company or its affiliates, and losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Company or its affiliates due to a third-party proceeding in connection with a disposition.

Non-OX40 Divestiture

On July 25, 2025, immediately prior to consummation of the Merger, Legacy Inmagene completed the divestiture of the non-IMG-007 business related assets, business and operations (the “Non-OX40 Business”) controlled by Legacy Inmagene immediately prior to the Merger (the “Non-OX40 Divestiture”). Specifically, Legacy Inmagene sold and transferred (including via sublicense) all of the Non-OX40 Business to Miragene Inc, a newly formed private company and wholly owned subsidiary of Legacy Inmagene (“Miragene”).

As part of the Non-OX40 Divestiture, Miragene Co, a newly formed private company (“BuyCo”), held by the holders of Legacy Inmagene’s outstanding shares prior to the Merger, purchased from Legacy Inmagene all of the outstanding share capital of Miragene (holding the Non-OX40 Business) in exchange for a promissory note in the amount of $8.9 million issued by BuyCo to Legacy Inmagene (the “Promissory Note”). BuyCo has been identified as a related party to the Company as there are shareholders in common and the Miragene CEO is a member of our board of directors.

As a result of the Non-OX40 Divestiture, IMG-007, a non-depleting anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody, for the treatment of atopic dermatitis and other potential indications, became the only product candidate of the Company in clinical development.

The Non-OX40 Divestiture resulted in Legacy Inmagene’s recognition of $1.5 million within additional paid-in capital, comprised of ($5.2) million in net assets, consisting of $5.2 million in cash transferred to BuyCo for outstanding liabilities associated with the Non-OX40 Business and other insignificant operating assets and liabilities, offset by the initial fair value of the promissory note of $6.7 million, for the period ended September 30, 2025. The Non-OX40 Divestiture represents a transaction between entities with a high degree of common ownership, and therefore, was accounted for like a common control transaction. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities transferred were derecognized at their historical carrying values, and the estimated fair value of promissory note receivable was recognized, with any difference recorded in equity. No gain or loss was recognized in the condensed combined statement of operations in connection with this transaction. In addition, the initial estimated fair value of the corresponding Legacy Inmagene CVR liability was recorded as a dividend to the Legacy Inmagene shareholders within equity, with the related payable recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Transition Services Agreement

In connection with the Non-OX40 Divestiture, the Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) with Miragene for the provision by Miragene of certain transitional services related to the ongoing operations of the Company’s business with respect to the IMG-007 program, which may include services related to chemistry, manufacturing and controls, regulatory affairs, clinical trial support and operations, translational science research and support, bioanalysis, pharmacovigilance (collectively, the “Miragene Services”).

The initial term of the Transition Services Agreement is six months (the “Initial Term”), which shall be automatically extended for an additional six months unless during the first three months of the Initial Term, the Company provides written notice to terminate the Transition Services Agreement. In addition, the Company may extend the Initial Term with respect to any or all of the Miragene Services for up to an additional 12 months upon 60 days’ prior written notice prior to the end of the Initial Term.

Upon the closing of the Merger, the Company paid Miragene $1.25 million as pre-payment for the Miragene Services to be provided during the Initial Term, of which $0.4 million has been recognized as operating expense for the period ended September 30, 2025. Up to $1.25 million may be payable if the Initial Term is automatically extended for the Miragene Services to be provided during such period.

The Transition Services Agreement may be terminated after the Initial Term by either party upon 60 days’ prior written notice or by Miragene after the completion by the Company of the sale or other disposition of any portion of the Company’s business, assets or properties constituting all or a majority of the IMG-007 Business (as defined in the Transition Services Agreement).

On October 23, 2025, the Company provided written notice to Miragene of its election to (i) not have the Transition Services Agreement automatically renew and (ii) extend the term for an additionalsix months following the end of the initial term for a subset of the Miragene Services, including services related to chemistry, manufacturing and controls, translational sciences research and support, for total service fees of $0.2 million.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company expects to continue to incur losses as it invests in research and development activities to advance its existing and potential future research programs and incurs ongoing costs associated with operating as a public company. Since inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its resources to advancing the development of its portfolio of programs, organizing and staffing the Company, business planning, raising capital, and providing general and administrative support for these operations. Current and future programs will require significant research and development efforts, including preclinical and clinical trials, and regulatory approvals for commercialization. These efforts require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel, and infrastructure. Even if the Company’s development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will realize significant revenue from product sales. If the Company obtains regulatory approval for its product candidate or any future product candidates and starts to generate revenue, it expects to incur significant expenses related to developing its internal commercialization capability to support product sales, marketing, and distribution.

The Company has not generated any revenue from product sales and has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has incurred a net loss of $ $24.8 million and $38.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company used net cash of $40.6 million for its operating activities. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $142.6 million.

The Company will need substantial additional funding to support its operating activities as it advances its product candidate or any future product candidates through development, seeks regulatory approval and prepares for and, if its product candidate or any future product candidates are approved, proceeds to commercialization. Until such time as the Company can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, the Company expects to finance its operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, government or private party grants, debt financings and license and collaboration agreements. Adequate funding may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all.

The Company believes its existing cash, cash equival ents and marketable securities of $142.6 million as of September 30, 2025 are sufficient to support operations through at least the next 12 months from the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and reflect the operations of the Company and its fully owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Legacy Inmagene's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are included in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-290108) (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 8, 2025 and declared effective on September 15, 2025. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position as of September 30, 2025, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024, was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements.

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s audited consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 that are included in the Registration Statement, except as noted below.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’scondensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, accrued research and development expenses, stock-based compensation, the fair value of common stock prior to the Merger and redeemable convertible preferred shares, the fair value of Promissory Note receivable and related CVR liability, and the amount and timing of revenue recognition. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates as there are changes in facts, circumstances, and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

The Company’s cash equivalents, marketable securities, Promissory Note receivable and related CVR liability are carried at fair value, determined according to the fair value hierarchy described above (see Note 4 -Fair Value Measurements). The carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these liabilities. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy on the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

Marketable Securities

The Company invests its excess cash balances in marketable securities and classifies its investments as available-for-sale based on facts and circumstances present at the time it purchased the securities. At each balance sheet date presented, the Company classified all of its investments in marketable securities as available-for-sale and as current assets as they represent the investment of funds available for current operations. The Company reports available-for-sale securities at fair value at each balance sheet date and includes any unrealized holding gains and losses (the adjustment to fair value) in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are included in other income (expense). If any adjustment to fair value reflects a decline in the value of the marketable securities, the Company considers all available evidence to evaluate if an impairment loss exists, and if so, adjusts the investment to market value through a charge to its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Any premium arising at purchase is amortized to the earliest call date and any discount arising at purchase is accreted to maturity. Accretion of discounts are recorded in interest income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Net Loss Per Share

Prior to consummation of the Merger, Legacy Inmagene applied the two-class method to compute basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders when it had issued shares that meet the definition of participating securities. The two-class method determined net loss per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared or accumulated and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires loss available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to share in the earnings as if all loss for the period had been distributed. Legacy Inmagene’s redeemable convertible preferred shares were eligible to participate in any dividends declared by Legacy Inmagene and were therefore considered to be participating securities. The participating securities were not required to participate in the losses of Legacy Inmagene, and therefore during periods of loss there was no allocation required under the two-class method.

Prior to the consummation of the Merger, Legacy Inmagene had two classes of ordinary shares outstanding - ordinary shares and Series A convertible preferred shares. Basic net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders was computed by allocating the undistributed earnings for each period to each class on a proportionate basis. Net loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss attributable to each class of ordinary share by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of each class outstanding for the period. The two-class method was expected to yield the same basic loss per share for ordinary share and Series A convertible preferred shares as there were no differences in dividend rights between the two classes. Diluted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was computed by adjusting net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders based on the potential impact of dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders was computed by dividing the diluted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive ordinary shares.

Legacy Inmagene’s ordinary shares, Series A convertible preferred shares, and redeemable convertible preferred shares were exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock at the consummation of the Merger. Subsequent to the close of the Merger, the Company has two classes of common stock outstanding, voting common stock and non-voting common stock. The rights of the holders of voting and non-voting common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Each share of non-voting common stock is convertible into one share of voting common stock at the option of the holder upon written notice. The Company allocates undistributed income (losses) attributable to common stock between the common stock classes on a one-to-one basis when computing net income (loss) per share. As a result, basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of voting and non-voting common stock are equivalent. Basic per share data is computed by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding.

The Company generated a net loss in all periods presented, and therefore the basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and may have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes the impact of any recently issued and not yet effective pronouncements will not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 provide for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the guidance in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which will result in additional disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements..

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)and provided a clarifying update in January 2025. The amendments increase disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization) in commonly presented expense captions. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and is required to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the disclosures on its consolidated financial statements.

On July 30, 2025 the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides guidance for estimating credit losses under the current expected credit losses (CECL) model for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under ASC 606. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and is required to be adopted prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the disclosures on its consolidated financial statements.

  1. Reverse Recapitalization

As discussed in Note 1 -Organization, the Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

At the effective time of the Merger, the assets of Ikena primarily consisted of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, as well as other nominal assets, including prepaid expenses and other current assets, operating lease right-of-use assets, and other non-current assets. Ikena did not have significant operating activities immediately prior to the closing of the Merger. Under such reverse recapitalization accounting, the assets and liabilities of Ikena were recorded at their fair value in the Company’s financial statements at the effective time of the reverse recapitalization, which approximated carrying value. No goodwill or intangible assets were recognized as a result of the reverse recapitalization.

On July 25, 2025, Legacy Inmagene acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities listed belowas part of the reverse recapitalization (in thousands):

Cash and cash equivalents$54,631
Marketable securities40,060
Prepaid expenses and other current assets4,263
Operating lease right-of-use assets, net2,428
Other non-current assets1,278
Accounts payable(1,808)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities(11,365)
Lease liabilities, current(3,701)
Lease liabilities, non-current(1,658)
Other non-current liabilities(1,092)
Net assets acquired$83,036

Legacy Inmagene incurred transaction costs related to the reverse recapitalization of $9.4 million. This amount was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated statements of redeemable convertible preferred shares and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

  1. Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands) as of September 30, 2025. There wereno assets or liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2024.

Liabilities
CVR liability$7,510$—$—$7,510
Total liabilities at fair value$7,510$—$—$7,510

Corporate debt securities are valued using a market approach based on prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving similar instruments. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services, which use observable inputs including benchmark yields, reported trades, broker quotes, benchmark securities, and other market-related data. As the valuations are based on observable market inputs for similar instruments, rather than quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets, these securities are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company elected the fair value option and accordingly recorded the Promissory Note receivable at fair value at inception date and each period end, with changes recorded within other income (expense) on the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company’s Promissory Note receivable is valued on a recurring basis using a probability weighted expected future payout discounted by applicable market yield of 15% and 11.6% as of July 25, 2025 (inception date) and September 30, 2025, respectively, which are Level 3 inputs.

The Company recorded a corresponding CVR liability in connection with the Promissory Note receivable, with the carrying amount equal to the fair value at inception and each period end, with changes recorded within other income (expense) on the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The CVR liability and the Promissory Note have offsetting adjustments resulting from the change of their respective fair values as any payments received by the Company under the Promissory Note from BuyCo will be distributed to Legacy Inmagene CVR holders as Legacy Inmagene CVR Payments.

The following table presents the balances of the Promissory Note receivable and the corresponding CVR liability during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 (in thousands):

  1. Term Loan Advances

Concurrent with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Legacy Inmagene and Ikena entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which Ikena agreed to loan the Company up to $22.5 million in term loans of at least $7.5 million (collectively, the “Term Loan Advances”), with the first Term Loan Advance occurring within three days of the execution of the Loan Agreement. Legacy Inmagene received the second Term Loan Advance of $7.5 million in April 2025 and the third $7.5 million Term Loan Advance in May 2025. The Term Loan Advances bore interest, on the outstanding daily balance thereof, at a rate of 6.0% per annum, and could have been prepaid at any time without a premium or a penalty. The Term Loan Advances were secured by all assets held or owned by Legacy Inmagene in respect of the anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody asset, IMG-007. The Term Loan Advances, including interest accrued therewith, was added to Ikena’s net cash for purposes of the Merger Agreement, including the calculation of the Exchange Ratio and the closing conditions.

Upon the consummation of the Merger on July 25, 2025, the outstanding principal balance from the Term Loan Advances of $22.5 million and the corresponding accrued interest of $0.5 million were forgiven.

  1. Related Party Promissory Note Receivable and CVR Liability

As discussed in Note 1, as part of the Non-OX40 Divestiture, BuyCo issued a Promissory Note to Legacy Inmagene in the amount of $8.9 million. The Promissory Note accrues interest at an annual rate of 4.61%, with interest payments due monthly in arrears, unless BuyCo elects to capitalize the interest through payment-in-kind (PIK) treatment. The Promissory Note matures on the earlier of (i) the year 2035 or (ii) the date on which Legacy Inmagene declares the Promissory Note due and payable on or after the occurrence of an event of default. Additionally, in the event that BuyCo receives certain specified milestone or license payments, after the second anniversary of the Promissory Note,50% of such proceeds must be used to prepay the outstanding balance of the Promissory Note. Any payments received by the Company under the Promissory Note from BuyCo will be distributed to Legacy Inmagene CVR holders as Legacy Inmagene CVR Payments.

As discussed in Note 4, the Promissory Note receivable is recorded at fair value at each period end. As of September 30, 2025, the Promissory Note receivable and related CVR liability were valued at $7.5 million.

Stock option valuation

The fair value of each award granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing valuation model (the “Black-Scholes model”). In determining the fair value of stock options granted, the following weighted average assumptions were used for nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

Nine Months Ended

Summary of stock options

Legacy Inmagene granted stock options where vesting was subject to service and performance-based criteria, which were assumed by the Company upon the closing of the Merger. The service condition is typically a four-year service vesting period, and the exercise of the stock options was contingent upon consummation of certain transactions of Legacy Inmagene such as a change in control, corporate transaction, or initial public offering. A corporate transaction included specific events in which Legacy Inmagene underwent a merger or reverse merger (including the Merger), the sale of substantially all assets, a liquidation or dissolution, or an acquisition, resulting in either a change of control or the loss of majority voting power by its shareholders. Legacy Inmagene also granted certain stock options with vesting that is determined based on the achievement of certain corporate and individual milestones, which were assumed by the Company. The recognition of expense for these stock options is further dependent upon the achievement of certain milestones. In addition, the 2025 Plan allows for the acceleration of vesting of certain awards to the extent approved by the administrator of the 2025 Plan.

The Company’s stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is summarized as follows:

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of September 30, 2025.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $12.48 per share.

Summary of RSUs

The following table summarizes RSU activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

On April 8, 2025, Legacy Inmagene’s Board of Directors granted RSU to employees. Prior to April 8, 2025, Legacy Inmagene had not granted any RSUs to employees. The RSUs contain service-based and performance-based vesting conditions. The performance-based vesting condition was the successful closing of the Merger. The service-based requirement was satisfied subject to the employee remaining in continuous service through the closing of the Merger. The holders of RSUs were not entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents. The fair value of the RSUs granted was based on the estimated fair value of the underlying shares at the date of grant.

Stock-based compensation expense for stock options

On July 25, 2025, upon consummation of the Merger, the performance condition of exercisability and vesting of the then outstanding stock-based awards were met where applicable. Consequently, the Company recorded $14.9 million of stock-based compensation expense on the Closing Date.

Stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was recorded as follows (in thousands):

As of September 30, 2025, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for stock option awards was $7.5 million estimated to be recognized over a period of 3.6 years.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded $14.0 million in research and development expense related to the issuance of common stock on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, respectively. See Note 13 for detail on the issuance of common stock related to the Hutchmed Agreement.

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company believes there is no litigation pending or loss contingencies that could have, either individually or in the aggregate, a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In connection with the merger, two actions have been filed against the Company and its board of directors in the Supreme Court for the State of New York, County of New York, captioned Smith v. Ikena Oncology, Inc., et al., No. 653576/2025 (filed June 12, 2025) and Kent v. Ikena Oncology, Inc., et al., No. 653588/2025 (filed June 13, 2025) (collectively, the “Complaints”). The Complaints allege that the defendants filed or caused to be filed a materially incomplete and misleading registration statement with the SEC and asserts claims under New York common law for negligent misrepresentation and concealment and negligence. In addition, the Company and its board of directors have received five additional demands from purported stockholders seeking additional disclosures in the registration statement (collectively, the “Demands”).

The Company cannot predict the outcome of the Complaints or the Demands. The Company believes that the Complaints and the Demands are without merit, and the Company and the individual defendants intend to vigorously defend against the Complaints and the Demands and any subsequently filed similar actions. If additional similar complaints are filed or demands are received, absent new or significantly different allegations, the Company will not necessarily disclose such additional filings or demands.

Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

The Company enters into contracts in the normal course of business with third-party contract organizations for clinical trials, preclinical studies, manufacturing and other services and products for operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination following a certain period after notice and therefore the Company believes that its non-cancelable obligations under these agreements are not material.

  1. Collaborative Arrangements and Licensing Agreements

Licensing Agreements

Hutchmed Limited

On January 5, 2021, Legacy Inmagene entered into a Collaboration, Option and License Agreement (the “Hutchmed Agreement”) with Hutchmed Limited (“Hutchmed”), formerly known as Hutchison MediPharma Limited. Legacy Inmagene entered into the Hutchmed Agreement as a strategic partnership to further develop four novel preclinical drug candidates discovered by Hutchmed for the potential treatment of multiple immunological diseases – OX40 (CD134) antagonistic monoclonal antibody (anti-OX40 mAb), BTK (Bruton tyrosine kinase) inhibiter (BTK HMPL-727), RIPK1 HMPL-662, and CSF-1R HMPL-958.

Under the terms of the Hutchmed Agreement, Legacy Inmagene received an exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to perform research and development and for use in regulatory filings related to the licensed compounds (the “Licensed Compounds”). Further, on a Licensed Compound-by-Licensed Compound basis, Hutchmed granted Legacy Inmagene the exclusive option to the worldwide license with the right to sublicense to develop, manufacture and commercialize the licensed compound, with Hutchmed retaining first right to co-commercialization in mainland China (each a “License Option”).

Upon exercise of each License Option, Legacy Inmagene acquires an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers, under certain patents and know-how controlled by Hutchmed and Hutchmed’s right, title and interest in the joint intellectual property to develop, manufacture and commercialize any product that contains, incorporates, or otherwise includes the Licensed Compound (the “Licensed Products”) and is required pay a $20.0 million fee per licensed compound, or, if exercise and payment is made within three years of execution of the Hutchmed Agreement, Legacy Inmagene may elect to pay the option exercise fee in common stock pursuant to a share subscription agreement at a price to be agreed to by both parties. Following Legacy Inmagene’s decision to exercise the License Option, Hutchmed is eligible to receive up to $92.5 million for each Licensed Product upon the achievement of various development and regulatory milestones. Additionally, Hutchmed is eligible to receive up to $135.0 million for each Licensed Compound upon the achievement of various worldwide aggregate cumulative net sales milestones for the Licensed Products that contain such Licensed Compound and tiered royalty rates in the high-single-digit to low-tens percentages on a Licensed Compound-by-Licensed Compound basis for net sales of such Licensed Compounds worldwide, subject to reduction in certain circumstances. None of the payments under the Hutchmed Agreement are refundable. None of the payments under the Hutchmed Agreement are refundable.

In April 2023, Legacy Inmagene entered into an amendment to the Hutchmed Agreement which terminated portions of the Hutchmed Agreement related to the RIPK1 HMPL-662 compound, and extended Legacy Inmagene’s deadline for License Option exercise by an additional year to allow time for additional research to be performed on two of the remaining targets.

On October 16, 2023, Legacy Inmagene exercised the License Option for (a) anti-OX40 mAb, and (b) the BTK (Bruton tyrosine kinase) inhibiter. Legacy Inmagene elected to pay Hutchmed the option exercise fee in the form of common stock pursuant to the Hutchmed Agreement. In February 2024, Legacy Inmagene and Hutchmed entered into a share subscription agreement whereby Legacy Inmagene agreed to issue 429,082 shares of common stock for satisfaction of the option exercise fees for the two licensed compounds. In the first quarter of 2024, Legacy Inmagene recorded $14.0 million in research and development expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The License Option rights to CSF-1R HMPL-958 were not exercised and have expired under the terms of the Hutchmed Agreement.

In connection with the Non-OX40 Divestiture, the BTK inhibiter program was sold to the BuyCo (Note 1). The Company became the successor of the Hutchmed Agreement upon consummation of the Merger, and continues to actively develop the anti-OX40 mAb program.

Legacy Collaborative Arrangements

Below is a summary of collaboration agreements and programs that have been divested in connection with the Non-OX40 Divestiture.

IMG-013 and IMG-008 Agreements

On July 12, 2024, Legacy Inmagene entered into separate exclusive license and collaboration agreements to license Legacy Inmagene’s anti-IL-7Ra antibody (the “IMG-013 Agreement”) and anti-IL-36R antibody (the “IMG-008 Agreement”) to a third party. Legacy Inmagene determined that the IMG-008 Agreement and IMG-013 Agreement should be accounted for as separate contracts with a customer in accordance with ASC 606.

IMG-013 Agreement

Under the IMG-013 Agreement, Legacy Inmagene agreed to grant to a third party an exclusive royalty-bearing worldwide license to exploit patents, patent applications, and Legacy Inmagene know-how which would address immune disorders where Legacy Inmagene’s anti-IL-7Ra antibody (IMG-013) is involved. The license term commenced upon receipt of the upfront payment and would continue until such time as there are no remaining payment obligations due to Legacy Inmagene.

Under the IMG-013 Agreement as amended by the settlement agreement and mutual general release pertaining to the IMG-008 Agreement, Legacy Inmagene was entitled to receive a $3.5 million non-refundable upfront cash payment, which Legacy Inmagene received in the third quarter of 2024. Legacy Inmagene was eligible to receive additional payments under the IMG-013 Agreement based on development and regulatory milestones achievement, and based on sales-based milestones. Legacy Inmagene may also receive additional payments based on mid-single-digit sales-based royalties. None of the payments under the IMG-013 Agreement are refundable.

In order to determine the transaction price, Legacy Inmagene evaluated all the payments to be received during the duration of the contract. Fixed consideration exists in the form of the $3.5 million upfront payment. Development, regulatory, and sales-based milestones and royalties were considered contingent variable consideration. Legacy Inmagene determined that the initial transaction price consisted of the upfront payment which is allocated to the one performance obligation. The transaction price allocated to the one performance obligation was recognized upon grant of license and transfer of technology in the third quarter of 2024.

IMG-008 Agreement

Under the IMG-008 Agreement, Legacy Inmagene agreed to grant to a third party an exclusive royalty-bearing worldwide license to exploit patents, patent applications, and Legacy Inmagene know-how which would address immune disorders where Legacy Inmagene’s anti-IL-36R antibody (IMG-008) is involved. The license term would have commenced upon receipt of the upfront payment and would continue until such time as there are no remaining payment obligations due to Legacy Inmagene.

Under the IMG-008 Agreement, Legacy Inmagene was initially entitled to receive a $6.5 million non-refundable upfront cash payment from IMG-008 no later than September 9, 2024. Legacy Inmagene was also eligible to receive additional payments based on achievement of development and regulatory milestones and sales-based milestones. Legacy Inmagene was also entitled to receive additional payments based on mid-single-digit sales-based royalties.

Legacy Inmagene and the third party entered into an amendment of the IMG-008 Agreement in the third quarter of 2024, whereby Legacy Inmagene extended the payment period for the upfront payment in exchange for a non-refundable $0.7 million deposit. The $0.7 million deposit was received by Legacy Inmagene in the third quarter of 2024 and was reflected as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024.

During the first quarter of 2025, Legacy Inmagene and the third party entered into a settlement agreement and mutual general release pertaining to the IMG-008 Agreement, whereby Legacy Inmagene agreed to dismiss all claims against the third party related to the IMG-008 Agreement in exchange for (1) re-affirmation of full release by the third party of the $0.7 million of funds previously deposited by the third party; (2) payment of a one-time settlement amount of $0.1 million by the third party to Legacy Inmagene; and (3) amendment of the above noted IMG-013 Agreement to increase the development and regulatory milestone fees. Except as so amended, the IMG-013 Agreement remains in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, whereas the IMG-008 Agreement is effectively terminated. During the first quarter of 2025, Legacy Inmagene recognized $0.8 million oflicense revenue in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Telenor

On September 28, 2023, Legacy Inmagene entered into an exclusive license and collaboration agreement (the “Celexor Agreement”) with Celexor Bio, Inc. (“Celexor”). Legacy Inmagene granted Celexor an exclusive royalty-bearing license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize any and all products and associated products utilizing Legacy Inmagene’s IMG-018, a monoclonal antibody targeting immunoglobulin-like transcript 7. The license term commenced upon the execution of the Celexor Agreement and will continue until such time as there are no remaining payment obligations due to Legacy Inmagene.

Under the Celexor Agreement, Legacy Inmagene received an upfront payment of $7.0 million and 1,223,300 shares of Series Seed-2 Preferred Shares of Celexor valued at $0.9 million from Celexor. Legacy Inmagene was eligible to receive additional payments upon achievement of development and regulatory milestones and based on sales-based milestones. Legacy Inmagene could also receive additional payments based on mid-single-digit sales-based royalties. None of the payments under the Celexor Agreement were refundable. Legacy Inmagene determined the Celexor Agreement should be accounted for as a contract with a customer under ASC 606.

Legacy Inmagene concluded that the promises included the license of intellectual property and technology transfer, and these promises should be combined into a single performance obligation.

In order to determine the transaction price, Legacy Inmagene evaluated all of the payments to be received over the duration of the contract. Fixed consideration exists in the form of the upfront payment and Series Seed-2 Preferred Shares of Celexor received. Development, regulatory, and sales-based milestones and royalties were considered contingent variable consideration. Legacy Inmagene determined that the initial transaction price consisted of the upfront payment of $7.0 million and the receipt of Series Seed-2 Preferred Shares of Celexor which were valued at $0.9 million, which was allocated to the single performance obligation. The transaction price allocated to the single performance obligation was recognized upon grant of license and transfer of technology which occurred in 2023.

As of December 31, 2024, the Series Seed-2 Preferred Shares of Celexor were recorded within other non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Celexor shares were included in the Non-OX40 divestiture and are no longer recorded within other non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025.

Affibody

On April 29, 2020, Legacy Inmagene entered into a license and collaboration agreement (the “Affibody Agreement”) with Affibody AB (“Affibody”), under which Legacy Inmagene received an exclusive license to develop and commercialize any and all products and associated products utilizing ABY-035 in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and South Korea (“Legacy Inmagene Territory”), a non-exclusive license to Affibody’s proprietary platform that is necessary or useful to develop and commercialize the licensed products in the Legacy Imagene Territory and development activities in the Asia Pacific region, excluding Japan.

On January 9, 2025, Legacy Inmagene entered into an agreement with Affibody to terminate the Affibody Agreement effective as of January 10, 2025. In accordance with the terms of the Affibody Agreement, all corresponding licenses or sublicenses were terminated, and Legacy Inmagene agreed to wind down any ongoing studies for any compounds subject to the Affibody Agreement.

  1. Net Loss per Share

The Company recast its basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the effect of the exchange ratio of 0.0030510 on its outstanding common stock and Series A preferred shares during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, resulting from the close of the Merger which occurred on July 25, 2025.

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, was calculated as follows (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Three Months Ended September 30,

The Company’s potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. Therefore, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same. The Company excluded potentially dilutive securities from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the period presented because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

  1. Income Taxes

Income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were recorded at the Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate, subject to adjustments for discrete events, if they occur. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a $0.1 million income tax benefit. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company didnot record any tax provisions. The primary reconciling items between the federal statutory rate of 21.0% and the Company’s overall effective tax rate for these periods is due to net operating losses and the valuation allowance recorded against the full amount of the Company’s net deferred tax assets and state taxes.

A valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the Company’s deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of sufficient future taxable income during the period in which the Company’s related temporary differences become deductible. Management believes that based on the earnings history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits of these assets will not be realized, and therefore, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions, most notably Section 174 capitalization of domestic research and development costs. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. There was not a significant impact on the Company's tax expense or effective tax rate for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2025 associated with the OBBBA. The OBBBA is not expected to have a material impact on the 2025 consolidated financial statements.
