Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Organization and basis of presentation

Description of business

Aligos Therapeutics, Inc. (Aligos-US) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on February 5, 2018 (inception). On September 10, 2018, the Company formed Aligos Belgium BVBA (Aligos-Belgium), a limited liability company organized under the laws of Belgium. On March 30, 2020, the Company formed as a wholly owned subsidiary, Aligos Australia Pty LTD (Aligos-Australia), a proprietary limited company. On May 18, 2021, the Company formed as a wholly owned subsidiary, Aligos Therapeutics (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. (Aligos-Shanghai) and together with Aligos-US, Aligos-Belgium, and Aligos-Australia being the “Company” or “Aligos”.

Aligos is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel therapeutics to address unmet medical needs in liver and viral diseases, including for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH), and obesity.

The Company is devoting substantially all of its efforts to the research and development of its drug candidates. The Company has not generated any product revenue to date. The Company is also subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in the biotechnology industry, including the uncertainty of success of its nonclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approval of drug candidates, uncertainty of market acceptance of products, competition from substitute products and larger companies, the need to obtain additional financing, compliance with government regulations, protection of proprietary technology, dependence on third parties, product liability, and dependence on key individuals.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and follow the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial information. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Interim-period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for a full year or any subsequent interim period. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity and Going Concern

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, the Company evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the condensed financial statements are issued.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of$31.1 million and an accumulated deficit of$688.6 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities. The Company expects that its cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund current planned operations into the first quarter of 2027, which is less than one year from the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company plans to raise substantial additional capital to continue as a going concern, including through a combination of public or private equity offerings, third-party funding, collaborations, strategic alliances, and licensing arrangements. In addition, the Company is evaluating future financing opportunities, and intends to secure additional funding.

However, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all. If events or circumstances occur such that the Company does not obtain additional funding, it may be necessary to significantly reduce its scope of operations to reduce the current rate of spending, which could include reductions in staff and the need to delay, limit, reduce or terminate current or future product development, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, even if financing efforts are successful and additional capital is obtained, available liquidity may still be insufficient to eliminate the aforementioned substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Periodically, the Company maintains deposits in accredited financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Company deposits its cash in financial institutions that it believes have high credit quality and has not experienced any losses on such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. The Company maintains a dual banking system to limit its credit and liquidity risk.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 5, 2026 (the 2025 Form 10-K).

Summary of significant accounting policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities when these values are not readily apparent from other sources. Accounting estimates and judgments are inherently uncertain, and actual results could differ from these estimates.

Significant accounting policies and estimates

No material changes were made to the Company’s significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2. Summary of significant accounting policies, in its 2025 Form 10-K, other than those noted below.

Revenue from licensing agreements

If a license to intellectual property is determined to be distinct from other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenue attributable to the license at the point in time the license is transferred to the customer, and the customer is able to use and benefit from the license.

Recently issued accounting standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. The Company's status as an emerging growth company ended on the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of the Company's initial public offering, i.e., December 31, 2025.

The Company has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective, and does not expect any to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements other than those discussed in its 2025 Form 10‑K.

Operating Leases

In September 2026, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Lease (the “Amendment”) with Britannia Biotech Gateway Limited Partnership for its corporate headquarters, comprising approximately 38,675 rentable square feet of office and laboratory space in South San Francisco, California. The Amendment extends the lease term from March 31, 2027 to March 31, 2034. Monthly base rent under the extended term ranges from $4.65 to $5.72 per rentable square foot, increasing annually, and is subject to abatement for the ten-month period from April 1, 2027 through January 31, 2028. The Company will continue to pay its share of operating expenses. The Amendment provides the Company a one-time right toterminate the lease effective March 31, 2031, upon written notice by March 31, 2030 and payment of a termination fee of approximately $2.5 million, andone option toextend the term for an additional seven years. The Company has recorded the $0.6 million Letter of Credit as non-current restricted cash on its balance sheet as of September 30, 2026.

The Company accounted for the Amendment as a lease modification that was not a separate contract. On the effective date of the modification, the Company reassessed the lease classification, which remained an operating lease, and remeasured the lease liability using its incremental borrowing rate of 10.81% as of that date. The remeasurement increased the operating lease liability and the corresponding operating lease right-of-use asset by $9.3 million. The Company determined that it is reasonably certain not to exercise the early termination option and that it is not reasonably certain to exercise the extension option. Accordingly, the lease term used to measure the lease liability ends on March 31, 2034.

Supplemental information related to the Amendment is as follows:

Common Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants

2025 PIPE

In February 2025, the Company closed its private investment in public equity (PIPE) offering (the 2025 Private Placement) and entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors (the 2025 Securities Purchase Agreement) that resulted in gross proceeds of $105.0 million. In the 2025 Private Placement, the Company issued (i)2,103,307 shares of the Company’s common stock (the Common Stock), par value $0.0001 per share, consisting of 1,427,000 shares of voting common stock and 676,307 shares of non-voting common stock, (ii) pre‑funded warrants (the 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants) to purchase up to 1,922,511 shares of voting Common Stock and (iii) accompanying common warrants (the 2025 Common Warrants) to purchase up to 2,012,909 shares of Common Stock. The purchase price per share was $26.0825, or $26.0824 per 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant, which represents the purchase price per share less the $0.0001 per share exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant. Each 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant is immediately exercisable and does not expire. Each 2025 Common Warrant has an exercise price of $26.02, is immediately exercisable and will expire in February 2032. The Company received net proceeds of $101.4 million, after deducting the placement agent fees and expenses and offering costs.

The Company accounts for the 2025 Common Warrants and 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants in Stockholders' Equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and determined the outstanding 2025 Common Warrants and 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants are freestanding derivative instruments. The Company classified the 2025 Common Warrants and 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants as equity because they met the equity scope exception under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, Derivatives and Hedging, based on the terms in the 2025 Securities Purchase Agreement.

2023 PIPE

Each 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant has an exercise price of $0.0025 per share of common stock, was immediately exercisable and is exercisable until exercised in full. Each 2023 Common Warrant has an exercise price of $18.92 per share of common stock, is immediately exercisable and will expire on October 25, 2030.

Revenue

License Agreement with Amoytop

In May 2026, the Company and Xiamen Amoytop Biotech Co., Ltd (Amoytop) entered into a License Agreement (the Amoytop License Agreement) to develop and commercialize pevifoscorvir sodium in Greater China for chronic HBV infection. Along with a $25.0 million, net of Chinese withholding tax, upfront payment, Aligos is entitled to up to $420 million in clinical, regulatory, and sales milestones with tiered, high single-digit royalties. These potential payments consist of (i) development milestones and (ii) sales-based milestones. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received an upfront payment of $25.0 million, net of Chinese withholding tax, in July 2026.

The Company determined that the Amoytop License Agreement falls within the scope of ASC 606. The agreement did not fall under the ASC 808 guidance due to Amoytop and the Company not being joint active participants, and both parties not having significant risks and rewards. Management of the Company determined that the provision of the license along with initial transfer of know-how were not distinct within the context of the contract and therefore represent a single performance obligation and the related upfront payment is recognized at a point in time. In addition, variable consideration (e.g., milestone payments and royalties) was evaluated based on the Company’s analysis that the probability of achieving any of the milestone payments is remote, and therefore determined to be constrained and excluded from the transaction price.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized$39.0 thousand and$27.8 million in revenue from license agreements related to the upfront payment. In addition, an amount of $2.8 million of withholding taxes was recognized as income tax expense with a corresponding liability. During thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2025, there wasno revenue from licensing agreements recognized.

Research Collaboration Agreement with Amoytop

In May 2023, the Company and Amoytop entered into a Research Collaboration and Development Agreement (the Amoytop Collaboration Agreement) with a focus on nucleic acid technology for HBV treatment, with the Company granting to Amoytop an exclusive, time-limited option to enter into an exclusive, territory-limited license to develop and commercialize such compounds. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received an upfront payment of $7.0 million, less withholding taxes of $1.1 million from Amoytop. With respect to the agreement, the Company is eligible for up to $109.0 million in development and commercialization milestones as well as tiered royalties on net sales. These potential payments consist of (i) potential development milestones (such as for the commencement of a Good Laboratory Practice toxicology study for a collaboration compound, approval of IND by regulatory authority, initiation of Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials, and regulatory approval of a licensed product), and (ii) sales-based milestones.

In May 2024, the Company and Amoytop entered into an extension to the Amoytop Collaboration Agreement, covering work performed through January 2025. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received an upfront payment of $1.5 million, which was recognized as revenue from contracts with customers from the second quarter of 2024 through the first quarter of 2025.

In May 2025, the Company and Amoytop entered into an additional extension to the Amoytop Collaboration Agreement, covering work performed through approximately November 2025. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received an upfront payment of $1.0 million, which was recognized as revenue from contracts with customers from the second quarter of 2025 through the fourth quarter of 2025.

In September 2025, Amoytop exercised its option to obtain an exclusive, territory-limited license to one compound developed under the Amoytop Collaboration Agreement, with the right to choose an alternative compound among three identified candidates following the completion of certain IND-enabling studies. IND-enabling studies began on its chosen compound in January 2026, triggering a milestone payment of $3.0 million, of which the Company recognized $2.8 million as revenue from contracts with customers, net of $0.2 million of value-added tax withheld in China.

In July 2026, Amoytop received IND approval in China on its chosen compound, triggering a milestone payment of $3.0 million, of which the Company recognized $2.8 million as revenue from contracts with customers, net of $0.2 million of value-added tax withheld in China.

The Company determined that the Amoytop Collaboration Agreement falls within the scope of ASC 606. The agreement did not fall under the ASC 808 guidance due to Amoytop and the Company not being joint active participants, and both parties not having significant risks and rewards. Management of the Company determined that there were three performance obligations for the agreement given the deliverables are distinct. The Company evaluated the standalone selling price for each obligation based on available data for similar arrangements. The Company evaluated the performance obligations and determined the provision of R&D services for the collaboration compound performance obligation will be satisfied over time, the research license including data and know-how has been satisfied, and the provision of materials will be satisfied upon delivery. Given the nature of the arrangement, the Company believes that the satisfaction of its performance obligations is best measured by the progress of its efforts as it relates to the performance of the R&D services. As such, the Company has used an input method based on costs incurred to recognize revenue associated with the upfront payments, and the Company recognizes revenue over time based on the costs incurred. The effect of any updates to the estimated overall costs are recorded as a change in estimate. In addition, variable consideration (e.g., milestone payments) were evaluated based on the Company’s analysis that the probability of achieving any of the milestone payments is remote, and therefore determined to be constrained and excluded from the transaction price.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized$2.8 million and$5.7 million in revenue from customers related to milestone payments described above, less withholding taxes.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognizedno revenue from customers related to milestone payments. During thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized$0.7 million and$2.0 million, respectively, in revenue from customers related to upfront payments.

In-licensing agreements

Agreement with Emory University (Emory)

In June 2018, the Company entered into a license agreement with Emory (the Emory License Agreement), pursuant to which Emory granted the Company a worldwide, sublicensable license under certain of its intellectual property rights to make, have made, develop, use, offer to sell, sell, import and export products containing certain compounds relating to Emory’s hepatitis B virus capsid assembly modulator technology, for all therapeutic and prophylactic uses. Such license is initially exclusive with respect to specified licensed patents owned by Emory and non-exclusive with respect to certain of Emory’s specified know-how. In June 2022, the license to such patents became non-exclusive for certain licensed compounds with respect to all fields except for the treatment and prevention of HBV; however, the Company may select up to six compounds which will maintain exclusivity with respect to all therapeutic and prophylactic uses. With respect to all other compounds that are enabled by the licensed patents, those which are jointly invented by the Company and Emory or inventors in the Schinazi laboratory, or which are disclosed in a specified licensed patent, are licensed to the Company exclusively including as to Emory; whereas all other such compounds are licensed to the Company non-exclusively. Under the terms of the Emory License Agreement, the Company is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to bring licensed products to market in accordance with a mutually agreed upon development plan. Unless terminated earlier by either party in accordance with the provisions thereof, the Emory License Agreement shall continue until the expiration of the last-to-expire of the patents licensed to the Company thereunder.

In June 2020, the Company amended the license agreement with Emory. Pursuant to the amended license agreement, Emory granted the Company additional patent rights to certain compounds targeting the treatment or prevention of HBV. As consideration for the additional rights, the Company made a one-time, non-refundable payment to Emory in the amount of $0.2 million, with an additional obligation to pay up to a maximum of $35,000. On the same date, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with Emory, with the initial research plan pertaining to the synthesis and evaluation of the compounds licensed through the additional patent rights granted in the amended license agreement. The research plan was set to terminateone year from the effective date of June 2020 but the Company exercised its option to extend it for a second year. In June 2022, the research plan terminated.

The Company has agreed to pay Emory up to an aggregate of $125.0 million upon the achievement of specified development, regulatory, and commercial milestones, and all ongoing patent costs. During thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2026, no milestone payments were made. During thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company made a $9.0 million payment to Emory following the first subject dosed in the Phase 2 study. The Company also agreed to pay Emory tiered single-digit royalties on worldwide annual net sales of licensed products, on a quarterly basis and calculated on a product-by-product basis. With respect to licensed products containing any of a specified subset of the licensed compounds, such royalties range from a mid-single digit to a high-single digit percentage rate. With respect to licensed products which do not contain such compounds, the royalties range from a low-single digit to a mid-single digit rate. The Company is obligated to pay Emory a certain percentage of upfront fees received by the Company from certain sublicensees. Under this provision, the Company paid $1.5 million to Emory in connection with the Amoytop License Agreement.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized a $1.5 million payment for the aforementioned provision in research and development expenses.
