Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. Formation and Business of the Company

Organization and Liquidity

PMV Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in March 2013. Since inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its time and efforts to performing research and development activities and raising capital. The Company is a precision oncology company pioneering the discovery and development of small molecule, tumor-agnostic therapies targeting p53. The Company’s headquarters are located at 400 Alexander Park Drive, Suite 301, Princeton, New Jersey.

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to clinical stage companies in the biotechnology industry including, but not limited to, technical risks associated with the successful research, development and manufacturing of product candidates, development by competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations and the ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. Current and future programs will require significant research and development efforts, including extensive preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval prior to commercialization. These efforts require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel, and infrastructure. Even if the Company’s product development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will realize significant revenue from product sales.

The Company has incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $18,086 and $36,124, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company used $34,256 of cash for operations. At June 30, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $482,578. Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $79,431 as of June 30, 2026. Management expects to incur substantial additional operating losses for the next several years and may need to obtain additional debt or equity financings in order to complete development of its products, obtain regulatory approvals, launch and commercialize its products.

Liquidity and Going Concern

Management has determined that the Company’s current available cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities may not be sufficient to fund its planned operations for at least one year from the date of this Quarterly Report, and there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will depend on, among other things, its ability to obtain additional funding and appropriately manage the amount of cash used to fund its operations. The Company plans to address this condition through public or private equity, convertible or debt financing or capital obtained in connection with strategic collaborations or licensing or other sources. There are inherent uncertainties as the outcome of these potential transactions are outside management’s control, and therefore there are no assurances that any of these potential transactions will occur. In addition, there can be no assurances that these transactions will sufficiently improve the Company’s liquidity or that the Company will otherwise realize the anticipated benefits. If the Company is not able to secure adequate additional funding, the Company may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible, suspend or curtail planned programs, or pursue strategic alternatives. Any of these actions could materially harm the Company’s business, results of operations and future prospects.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 6, 2026. Since the date of those consolidated financial statements, there have been no changes to its significant accounting policies.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the interim period reporting requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2026, or for any other subsequent interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, PMV Pharma Australia Pvt Ltd. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States (“U.S.”)Dollars, which is also the functional currency of the Company.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience when available and on various factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, research and development costs, accrued research and development costs and related prepaid expenses, and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company discloses and recognizes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active.

Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable in which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions that are unobservable.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities

Management considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The Company’s marketable debt securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. The Company classifies its marketable debt securities as either short-term or long-term based on each instrument’s underlying contractual maturity date. Marketable debt securities with maturities of 12 months or less are classified as short-term and marketable debt securities with maturities greater than 12 months are classified as long-term. The Company’s marketable debt securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity. Premiums and discounts on marketable debt securities are amortized into earnings over the life of the security and recorded on the interest income, net line of the income statement. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $767 and $1,564 of accretion, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight‑line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally five years, except for leasehold improvements, which are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease. Upon retirement or sale of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred.

Comprehensive Loss and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources, including unrealized gains and losses on investments and foreign currency translation gains and losses.

Leases

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the circumstances present. The Company accounts for a contract as a lease when it has the right to control the asset for a period of time while obtaining substantially all of the asset’s economic benefits. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its operating right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities at the lease commencement date, and thereafter if modified. The lease term includes any renewal options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company’s policy is to not record leases with a lease term of 12 months or less on its balance sheets. The Company's only existing lease recorded on the balance sheet is for office space.

The ROU asset represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term. The lease liability represents the present value of the lease payments under the lease. The present value of lease payments is determined by using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate is readily determinable; otherwise, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate for that lease term.

Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term based on the total lease payments and is included in operating expense in the statements of operations.

Payments due under each lease agreement include fixed and variable payments. Variable payments relate to the Company’s share of the lessor’s operating costs associated with the underlying asset and are recognized when the event on which those payments are assessed occurs. Variable payments have been excluded from the lease liability and associated right-of-use asset. Neither of the Company’s leases contain residual value guarantees.

The interest rate implicit in lease agreements is typically not readily determinable, and as such, the Company utilizes the incremental borrowing rate to calculate lease liabilities, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Cash and cash equivalents were held at primarily two financial institutions. At times, such deposits may be in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s marketable securities are carried at fair value and include any unrealized gains and losses. Any investments with unrealized losses are considered to be temporarily impaired.

The Company’s future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, rapid technological change, cost of development, uncertainty of market acceptance of the product, competition from substitute products and larger companies, protection of proprietary technology, any future strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals.

Products developed by the Company require clearances from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance the Company’s product candidates will receive the necessary clearances. If the Company is denied clearance, clearance is delayed or it is unable to maintain clearance, it could have a materially adverse impact on the Company.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amended guidance enhances income tax disclosures primarily related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This guidance requires disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and additional information on reconciling items meeting a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amended guidance requires disaggregating income taxes paid (net of refunds received) by federal, state, and foreign taxes. It also requires disaggregating individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) are equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). The amended guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. For additional information, see “Note 9 — Income Taxes.”

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”. This amended guidance requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements and a qualitative description of the remaining expense amounts not separately disaggregated. This standard becomes effective for reporting companies with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and requires prospective application with an option to apply it retrospectively. The Company anticipates adopting this standard in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07 (“ASU 2025-07”), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The guidance refines the scope of Topic 815 to clarify which contracts are subject to derivative accounting. The guidance also provides clarification under Topic 606 for share-based payments from a customer in a revenue contract. The amendments in ASU 2025-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

  1. Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments consist of money market funds, U.S. government debt securities and corporate debt securities. Cash and cash equivalents includes money market funds, corporate securities, and government securities, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices and are classified as Level 1. Marketable securities are measured at fair value based on inputs other than quoted prices that are derived from observable market data and are classified as Level 2 inputs, except for investments in U.S. treasury securities and certificates of deposit which are classified as Level 1. There were no Level 3 assets or liabilities at June 30, 2026.

The following tables show the Company’s cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities’ carrying amounts and fair values as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025:

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

In January 2021, the Company signed a lease for 50,581 square feet of office and laboratory space (the “One Research Way Lease”) at One Research Way in Princeton, New Jersey (the “Premises”). The lease term initially extended through 2032, had a five-year extension option, and replaced the Company’s two prior facilities as the Company’s headquarters in March 2023. The Company estimated that payments under the One Research Way Lease would be $19,889 through May 2032. The Company received a lease incentive of $4,046 from the lessor for a buildout of laboratory, vivarium, and office space. Management estimated the timing and amounts of reimbursements and included them as a reduction of lease payments when initially measuring the lease liability and right-of-use asset upon commencement. Since the inception date of the lease, $4,046 reimbursements were received from the lessor.

In August 2024, the Company entered into a Lease Termination Agreement with BMR-One Research Way LLC (the “Landlord”), in connection with the termination of the One Research Way Lease (the “Termination Agreement”). The Termination Agreement was contingent on the sale of the Premises by the Landlord to a prospective new buyer, which was met on October 1, 2024, and, as a result, there was no modification in August 2024.

Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Company surrendered the Premises in October 2024 and paid a total termination fee of approximately $1,420, consisting of (i) a cash payment in the amount of approximately $798 and (ii) a release of a security deposit from the Company’s existing letter of credit in the amount of approximately $622. The transaction was accounted for as an immediate termination of an operating lease before the expiration of the lease term in accordance with ASC 842. The Company derecognized the lease-related asset and liability resulting in a gain of $4,850. Since the termination fee of $1,420 was not already included in the lease payments, the termination fee was recognized as a loss on termination of the lease. Further, the Company abandoned and wrote-off all the related leasehold improvements totaling $9,454 held at the Premises. This net activity totaling $6,024 was recorded as a loss within General and Administrative expense in the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In August 2024, the Company signed a sublease for 14,201 square feet of office space at 400 Alexander Park Drive, Suite 301, in Princeton, New Jersey, to be used as its new headquarters (the “400 Alexander Sublease”). The 400 Alexander Sublease commenced on October 1, 2024 and extends until February 28, 2027. Payment under the 400 Alexander Sublease will total $789 through February 2027.

In September 2024, the Company signed a sublease agreement for 3,205 square feet of office and laboratory space at 311 Pennington Rocky Hill Road in Hopewell, New Jersey (the “311 Pennington Sublease”). The Company utilized the premises as laboratory space for research and development activities. The term of the 311 Pennington Sublease extended through 2029 and provided the Company with the option to extend the term for an additional three year period. Payment under the 311 Pennington Sublease totaled $192 through February 2026.

In March 2026, the 311 Pennington Sublease was terminated effective March 4, 2026, upon the termination of the primary lease between the master landlord and the tenant, in accordance with the terms of the sublease agreement. As a result, the Company accounted for the 311 Pennington Sublease termination as an immediate termination of an operating lease before the expiration of the lease term in accordance with ASC 842. Upon termination, the Company derecognized the related operating lease right‑of‑use asset and lease liabilities and recorded a net gain of approximately $24, which was recognized in General and Administrative expense in the accompanying Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The components of lease cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, were as follows:

Pursuant to the ATM Program, the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock having aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $150.0 million from time to time. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company didnot sell any shares of its common stock under the ATM Program. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has approximately $113.8 million remaining in gross proceeds available for future issuances of common stock under the ATM Program.

  1. Stock Plan

2020 Equity Incentive Plan

The 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) was approved by the Company’s board of directors on September 24, 2020. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted stock awards, unrestricted stock awards, cash-based awards and dividend equivalent rights to the Company’s officers, employees, directors and consultants. The number of shares of common stock initially reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan was 4,406,374, which shall be increased, upon approval by the Company’s board of directors, on January 1, 2021 and each January 1 thereafter, in an amount equal to the least of (i)4,406,374 shares of common stock, (ii) five percent (5%) of the outstanding common stock on the immediately preceding December 31, or (iii) such number of common stock determined by the board of directors no later than the immediately preceding December 31. For 2026, the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors, as the 2020 Plan administrator, exercised its discretion under clause (ii) to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan by 2,666,470 shares, effective as of January 1, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, there were 3,185,748 shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

On January 18, 2024, the Company granted 952,665 RSUs to employees VP-level or higher, pursuant to an employee retention program approved by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors. As of June 30, 2025 such RSUs were fully vested and common stock was issued upon settlement of the RSUs.

2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2020 ESPP”) was approved by the Company’s board of directors on September 24, 2020. A total of 400,752 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under this plan, which shall be increased, upon approval by the Company’s board of directors, on January 1, 2021 and each January 1 thereafter, to the lesser of (i)801,504 shares of common stock, (ii)1% of the outstanding shares of common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, or (iii) an amount determined by the board of directors or any of its committees no later than the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year. For 2026, the Company’s board of directors waived the annual increase to the shares reserved under the 2020 ESPP. As of June 30, 2026,740,081 shares are issued or outstanding, and there were 1,033,530 shares available for issuance, under the 2020 ESPP.

Stock Options

On July 16, 2024, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO defining the terms and conditions of a one-time voluntary stock option exchange to its employees of certain options to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,820,491 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option Exchange”). On August 13, 2024, the completion date of the Option Exchange, stock options covering an aggregate of 2,786,691 shares of common stock were tendered by eligible employees, and the Company granted new options at an exercise price of $1.48, the Company’s closing stock price on August 13, 2024, covering an aggregate of 2,786,691 sharesof common stock under the 2020 Plan in exchange for the tendered options. The new options are subject to a new three or four-year vesting schedule, vestingin equal annual installments over the vesting term. Each new option has a maximum term of ten years. The Option Exchange was treated as a modification for accounting purposes. As a result of the Option Exchange, the Company will recognize incremental stock-based compensation expense of $1,370 over the requisite service period of the new stock options, which isthree orfour years. The Company will recognize the sum of the incremental stock-based compensation expense and the remaining unrecognized compensation expense for the original awards on the modification date, over the requisite service period of the new stock options.
