Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Description of Business
Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary, Jasper Tx Corp. (collectively, “Jasper” or the “Company”), is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing therapeutics targeting mast cell driven diseases, such as chronic spontaneous urticaria, chronic inducible urticaria and asthma. Briquilimab has been evaluated in clinical studies in chronic spontaneous urticaria, chronic inducible urticaria and allergic asthma. The Company’s clinical development activities are currently focused on chronic urticarias, and while the clinical data generated in allergic asthma supports further development in the broader asthma population, advancing any future clinical studies in asthma would be based on an evaluation of the competitive landscape, the potential for strategic partnerships and capital availability. The Company has also historically explored diseases where targeting diseased hematopoietic stem cells can provide benefits, such as stem cell transplant conditioning regimens, but is currently focused on development of briquilimab in mast cell driven diseases.
The Company is headquartered in Redwood City, California. The Company is a Delaware corporation and was incorporated in March 2018. In September 2021, the Company completed a merger with Amplitude Healthcare Acquisition Corporation and became a public company.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for financial reporting.
The financial statements are consolidated for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and include the accounts of Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Jasper Tx Corp, which had no operations during the periods presented.
Going Concern
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, 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 after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of the Company’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, the Company evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of the Company’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. In performing this analysis, the Company excluded certain elements of its operating plan that cannot be considered probable.
The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred net losses of $75.8 million and $71.3 million, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had negative operating cash flows of $77.2 million and $62.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $316.7 million. The Company expects to continue to incur substantial losses, and its ability to achieve and sustain profitability will depend on the successful development, approval, and commercialization of product candidates and on the achievement of sufficient revenues to support the Company’s cost structure.
Management expects to finance the Company’s future cash needs through equity or debt financings, collaborations or a combination of these approaches. However, due to several factors, including those outside management’s control, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete additional financings. The Company’s ability to raise additional funds may be adversely impacted by negative global economic conditions and any disruptions to and volatility in the credit and financial markets in the United States and worldwide or other factors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in acquiring additional funding at levels sufficient to fund its operations or on terms favorable or acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing when needed or on terms favorable or acceptable to it, the Company may be forced to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of its research and development programs. The Company concluded the likelihood that its plan to successfully obtain sufficient funding or adequately delay or reduce expenditures, while reasonably possible, is less than probable. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $28.7 million. The Company’s management expects that the existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating plans for at least twelve months from the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 4, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its common stock. The par value per share and the number of authorized shares were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. The shares of common stock underlying outstanding stock options, common stock warrants and other equity instruments were proportionately reduced and the respective exercise prices, if applicable, were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of the agreements governing such securities. In addition, the shares available for grants under the Company’s incentive plans were adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the consolidated financial statements include but are not limited to, the determination of the accrued research and development expenses, the measurement of stock-based compensation expense and the valuation of warrant liability. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors and adjusts those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total amount shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):
| December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $28,692 | $71,637 |
| Restricted cash | 417 | 417 |
| Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $29,109 | $72,054 |
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in operating accounts and investments in money market funds. Restricted cash relates to the letter of credit secured in conjunction with the operating lease (Note 8).
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained with financial institutions in the United States of America. Cash balances are held at financial institutions and account balances may exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities’ balances and periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of its financial institutions.
The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the development stage, including, but not limited to, development and regulatory approval of new product candidates, development of markets and distribution channels, dependence on key personnel, and the ability to obtain additional capital as needed to fund its product plans. To achieve profitable operations, the Company must successfully develop and obtain requisite regulatory approvals for, manufacture, and market its product candidates. There can be no assurance that any such product candidate can be developed and approved or manufactured at an acceptable cost and with appropriate performance characteristics, or that such product will be successfully marketed. These factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future financial results.
Products developed by the Company require approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance that the Company’s future products will receive the necessary clearances. If the Company were denied such clearances or such clearances were delayed, it could have a materially adverse impact on the Company.
Property and Equipment, Net
Property and equipment, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease. Upon the sale or retirement of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the balance sheets and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment, principally property and equipment, whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of assets held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the Company determines that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, principally discounted cash flow models, to assess the fair values of long-lived assets.
The Company recognized an impairment loss of $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, which was recorded in research and development and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the amounts of $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively (see Note 16). The Company did not record any impairment of long-lived assets during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Leases
The Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease at the inception of the arrangement and whether such a lease is classified as a financing lease or operating lease at the commencement date of the lease. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as operating right-of-use assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and non-current portion of operating lease liabilities. The Company elected not to recognize the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with lease terms of 12 months or less (short-term leases). Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s lease contracts is not readily determinable, the Company utilizes a collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received and impairment charges if the Company determines the right-of-use asset is impaired.
The Company considers the lease term to be the noncancelable period that it has the right to use the underlying asset, together with any periods where it is reasonably certain it will exercise an option to extend (or not terminate) the lease. Periods covered by an option to extend (or not terminate) the lease in which the exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor are included in the lease term.
Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is presented in operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company has elected to not separate lease and non-lease components for its real estate leases and has instead accounted for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component. Variable lease payments are recognized as lease expense as incurred and are presented in operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The Company had no finance leases as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, warrant liability and other non-current liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock
The Company accounts for issued warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance included in ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), and ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether the warrants meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent reporting period end date while the warrants are outstanding. Warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance, or when the conditions for equity classification are met and are not subsequently remeasured. Warrants that do not meet the required criteria for equity classification are classified as liabilities at fair value. The warrants are subsequently remeasured at each reporting date with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss until exercise or expiration.
Accrued Research and Development Expenses
The Company has entered into various agreements with outsourced vendors, contract manufacturing organizations and contract research organizations. The Company makes estimates of accrued research and development expenses as of each balance sheet date based on facts and circumstances known at that time. The Company periodically confirms the accuracy of its estimates with the service providers and makes adjustments, if necessary. Research and development accruals are estimated based on the level of services performed, progress of the studies, including the phase or completion of events, and contracted costs. The estimated costs of research and development services provided, but not yet invoiced, are included in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. If the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies from the original estimates, the Company will adjust the accrual accordingly. Payments made under these arrangements in advance of the performance of the related services are recorded as prepaid expenses and other current assets until the services are rendered. To date, there have been no material differences between estimates of such expenses and the amounts actually incurred.
Research and Development
The Company expenses research and development (“R&D”) expenses as incurred. R&D expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, clinical trials, engineering and product development costs to support regulatory clearance of, and related regulatory compliance for, the Company’s products. Specifically, R&D expenses that support regulatory approval of, and related regulatory compliance for, the Company’s products include costs associated with the Company’s clinical trials, consisting of clinical trial design, clinical site establishment and management, clinical data management, travel expenses and the costs of products used for the Company’s clinical trials. Personnel-related expenses include salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation of the Company’s R&D employees. Non personnel-related expenses include costs of outside consultants, testing, materials and supplies, and allocated overhead. The Company allocates overhead related to rent, facility costs, information technology and human resources costs. R&D expenses are charged to expense when incurred.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include compensation, employee benefits and stock-based compensation for executive management, finance administration and human resources, allocated facility and information technology costs, professional service fees and other general overhead costs, including allocated depreciation to support the Company’s operations.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures its stock options granted to employees and non-employees based on the estimated fair values of the awards as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The model requires management to make a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend yield. For restricted stock unit awards, the estimated fair value is the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date. The Company expenses the fair value of its equity-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the period in which the related services are received. The Company accounts for award forfeitures as they occur. The expense for stock-based awards with performance conditions is recognized when it is probable that a performance condition is met during the vesting period.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the consolidated financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
In evaluating the ability to recover its deferred income tax assets, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including its operating results, ongoing tax planning, and forecasts of future taxable income on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. In the event the Company determines that it would be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, it would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance that would reduce the provision for income taxes. Conversely, if all or part of the net deferred tax assets are determined not to be realizable in the future, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would be charged to the provision of income taxes in the period when such determination is made. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.
Tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained during an audit. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are included within the provision for income tax. To date, there have been no interest or penalties recorded in relation to unrecognized tax benefits.
Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are initially measured in U.S. dollars using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are subsequently re-measured at the end of each reporting period using the exchange rate at that date, with the corresponding foreign currency transaction gain or loss recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and consolidated statements of cash flows. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are not subsequently re-measured.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss represents all changes in stockholders’ equity except those resulting from distributions to stockholders. There have been no items qualifying as other comprehensive income (loss) during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and therefore, the Company’s comprehensive loss was the same as its reported net loss.
Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration of potentially dilutive securities. The Pre-Funded Warrants (see Note 7) are included in the computation of basic net loss per share because their exercise price is negligible and they are fully vested and exercisable at any time after the original issuance date. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders adjusted for income (expenses), net of tax, related to any diluted securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, the restricted stock units, the Public Warrants (see Note 9), the Common Warrants (see Note 7) and stock options are considered to be potentially dilutive securities.
Basic and diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders per share is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. The Company considers the Common Warrants to be participating securities as the holders are entitled to receive dividends on a pari passu basis in the event that a dividend is paid on common stock. The Company’s participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses. As such, the net loss is attributed entirely to common stockholders. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the diluted net loss per common share was the same as basic net loss per share of common stock, as the impact of potentially dilutive securities was antidilutive to the net loss per common share. The performance restricted stock units are contingently issuable shares and are not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation until contingencies are resolved.
Segment Reporting
The Company hasone reportable and operating segment. Financial information about the Company’s operating segment is presented in Note 15.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU No. 2023-09 as of December 31, 2025 on a prospective basis.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU to its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
| ● | Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date; |
| ● | Level 2 – Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and |
| ● | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data. |
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
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.
The fair value of Level 1 securities is determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 1 securities consist of highly liquid money market funds. In addition, restricted cash collateralized by money market funds is a financial asset measured at fair value and is a Level 1 financial instrument under the fair value hierarchy.
Financial assets and liabilities are considered Level 2 when their fair values are determined using inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data, such as pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions, cash flow models with yield curves, and benchmark securities. In addition, Level 2 financial instruments are valued using comparisons to like-kind financial instruments and models that use readily observable market data as their basis. The Company had no financial instruments classified at Level 2 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Financial assets and liabilities are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s Level 3 liabilities consisted of the warrant liability. The Company had no financial instruments classified at Level 3 as of December 31, 2024.
There were no transfers within the hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Financial assets | ||||
| Money market funds | $27,692 | $— | $— | $27,692 |
| Total fair value of assets | $27,692 | $— | $— | $27,692 |
| Financial liabilities | ||||
| Warrant liability | $— | $— | $16,164 | $16,164 |
| Total fair value of financial liabilities | $— | $— | $16,164 | $16,164 |
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Financial assets | ||||
| Money market funds | $70,637 | $— | $— | $70,637 |
| Total fair value of assets | $70,637 | $— | $— | $70,637 |
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the changes in the Company’s warrant liability were as follows (in thousands):
| Warrant Liability | |
|---|---|
| Fair Value as of December 31, 2024 | $— |
| Issuance of warrants | 24,692 |
| Change in the fair value | (8,528) |
| Fair Value as of December 31, 2025 | $16,164 |
The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of its warrant liability using Level 3 inputs. Inputs used to determine estimated fair value of the warrant liability include the fair value of the underlying stock at the valuation date, the term of the warrants, and the expected volatility of the underlying stock. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the warrant liability is the estimated term of the warrants. The estimates of fair value are uncertain and changes in any of the estimated inputs used as of the date of this report could have resulted in significant adjustments to the fair value.
The key inputs into valuation models used to estimate the fair value of the warrant liability as of September 22, 2025, the issuance date, and as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:
| December 31, | September 22, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2025 | |
| Common stock price | $1.83 | $2.59 |
| Expected term (in years) | 4.22 | 4.5 |
| Expected volatility | 113.30% | 113.00% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.66% | 3.58% |

NOTE 5. CIRM GRANT
In November 2020, California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (“CIRM”) awarded the Company $2.3 million in support of the research project related to a monoclonal antibody that depletes blood stem cells and enables chemotherapy-free transplants. The award is payable to the Company upon achievement of milestones that are primarily based on patient enrollment in the Company’s clinical trials. CIRM could permanently cease disbursements if milestones are not met within four months of the scheduled completion date. Additionally, if CIRM determines, in its sole discretion, that the Company has not complied with the terms and conditions of the grant, CIRM may suspend or permanently cease disbursements. Funds received under this grant may only be used for allowable project costs specifically identified with the CIRM-funded project. Such costs can include, but are not limited to, salary for personnel, itemized supplies, consultants, and itemized clinical study costs. Under the terms of the grant, both CIRM and the Company will co-fund the research project and the amount of the Company’s co-funding requirement is predetermined as a part of the award. Under the terms of the CIRM grant, the Company is obligated to pay royalties and licensing fees based on 0.1% of net sales of CIRM-funded inventions per $1.0 million of CIRM grant. As an alternative to revenue sharing, the Company has the option to convert the award to a loan. In the event the Company exercises its right to convert the award to a loan, it would be obligated to repay the loan within ten business days of making such election. Repayment amounts vary dependent on when the award is converted to a loan, ranging from 60% of the award granted to amounts received plus interest at the rate of the three-month LIBOR rate plus 25% per annum. Since the Company may be required to repay some or all of the amounts awarded by CIRM, the Company accounted for this award as a liability. Given the uncertainty in amounts due upon repayment, the Company has recorded amounts received without any discount or interest recorded, and upon determination of amounts that would become due, the Company will adjust accordingly. In the absence of explicit U.S. GAAP guidance on contributions received by business entities from government entities, the Company has applied to the CIRM grant the recognition and measurement guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 958-605 by analogy. The Company has received an aggregate of $2.3 million from CIRM through December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the CIRM grant has been closed and there are no further amounts available for future distribution to the Company under the grant. As of each of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the amount of CIRM grant received of $2.3 million is included in other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE 6. SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS
Stanford License Agreements
In March 2021, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Stanford (the “2021 Stanford License Agreement”). In July 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2021 Stanford License Agreement to modify certain milestones set forth thereunder. The Company received a worldwide, exclusive license, with a right to sublicense, for briquilimab in the field of depleting endogenous blood stem cells in patients for whom hematopoietic cell transplantation is indicated. Stanford transferred to the Company certain know-how and patents related to briquilimab (together, the “Licensed Technology”). Under the terms of this agreement, the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, manufacture, and sell licensed product and to develop markets for a licensed product. In addition, the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the milestones as specified in the agreement over the six years from execution of the 2021 Stanford License Agreement and must notify Stanford in writing as each milestone is met.
The Company is obligated to pay annual license maintenance fees, beginning on the first anniversary of the effective date of the agreement and ending upon the first commercial sale of a product, method, or service in the licensed field of use, as follows: $25,000 for each first and second year, $35,000 for each third and fourth year and $50,000 at each anniversary thereafter ending upon the first commercial sale. The Company is also obligated to pay late-stage clinical development milestone payments and first commercial sales milestone payments of up to $9.0 million in total. The Company will also pay low single-digit royalties on net sales of licensed products, if approved. The Company paid $35,000 in annual license maintenance fees in each of April 2025 and March 2024, which were recognized as research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The 2021 Stanford License Agreement expires on a country-by-country basis on the last-to-expire valid claim of a licensed patent in such country. The Company may terminate the agreement by giving Stanford written notice at least 12 months in advance of the effective date of termination. The Company may also terminate the agreement solely with respect to any particular patent application or patent by giving Stanford written notice at least 60 days in advance of the effective date of termination. Stanford may terminate the agreement after 90 days from a written notice by Stanford, specifying a problem, including a delinquency on any report required pursuant to the agreement or any payment, missing a milestone or a material breach, unless the Company remediates the problem in that 90-day period.
In December 2024, the Company entered into a co-exclusive license agreement with Stanford (the “2024 Stanford License Agreement”). The Company received a co-exclusive license in the United States, with a right to sublicense, for a certain patent to be used in the field of the treatment and prevention of human diseases, including the use of anti-CD117 antibodies (other than JSP191) for the purpose of depleting endogenous blood stem cells in patients for whom hematopoietic cell transplantation is indicated (the “Co-Exclusive Licensed Field of Use”) and an exclusive license in the United States for the use of the same patent in the field provided in the 2021 Stanford License Agreement (the “Exclusive Licensed Field of Use”). Stanford will have at most one other commercial license for the licensed patent in the Co-Exclusive Licensed Field of Use. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, manufacture, and sell a licensed product and to develop markets for a licensed product. In addition, the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the milestones as specified in the agreement over approximately 4.5 years from the execution of the agreement and must notify Stanford in writing when, and if, each milestone is met.
The Company was obligated to pay a license issue fee of $75,000, following the execution of the agreement, which was paid in January 2025. The Company is also obligated to pay annual license maintenance fees, beginning on the first anniversary of the effective date of the agreement, as follows: $25,000 for each of the first through third years, $50,000 for each of the fourth through sixth years and $65,000 at each anniversary thereafter. The Company is also obligated to pay clinical development milestone payments of up to $1.3 million and sales milestone payments of up to $7.0 million in total. The Company will pay low single-digit royalties on net sales of licensed products, if approved. The Company will pay Stanford a portion of sublicensee consideration if a sublicense is granted. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized $25,000 related to the annual license maintenance fee as research and development expense in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss and as accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2024, the Company recognized $75,000 related to the license issue fee as research and development expense in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss and as accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.
The Company may terminate the agreement by giving Stanford written notice at least 30 days in advance of the effective date of termination. Stanford may terminate the agreement by giving the Company 90 days written notice for a problem, including a delinquency on any report required pursuant to the agreement, missing a milestone or a material breach, and by giving the Company 30 days written notice for a payment default, unless the Company remediates the problem in that 90-day or 30-day period.
NOTE 7. WARRANTS
In September 2025, in connection and together with the issuance of 11,670,707 shares of the Company’s voting common stock through the underwritten offering (the “September 2025 Offering”), the Company issued pre-funded warrants to purchase 675,000 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and common stock warrants to purchase 12,345,707 shares of common stock (the “Common Warrants”). See Note 9 for additional details about the September 2025 Offering.
Pre-Funded Warrants
The exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.0001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at the option of each holder in whole or in part at any time after their original issuance and have no expiration date. The Pre-Funded Warrants may be exercised by means of cash or the cashless settlement of the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrants. However, a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder,9.99% or 19.99%) of the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock following such exercise. However, any holder of a Pre-Funded Warrant may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99%, provided that the holder shall provide written notice at least 61 days’ prior written notice to the Company prior to the date such increase shall be effective.
Pursuant to the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrant, upon the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, as defined in the Pre-Funded Warrants, the holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants are entitled to receive, upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that such holders would have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Pre-Funded Warrants.
The Company concluded that the Pre-Funded Warrants met the equity indexation criteria and the Pre-Funded Warrants are therefore accounted for in stockholders’ equity. The Company recorded $0.3 million to additional paid-in capital upon issuance of the Pre-Funded Warrants.
As of December 31, 2025, none of the Pre-Funded Warrants have been exercised.
Common Warrants
The exercise price of each Common Warrant is $2.92 per share. Each Common Warrant is exercisable commencing on the six month anniversary of the date of issuance and thereafter for a period of four years. The Common Warrants may be exercised by means of cash or the cashless settlement of the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the Common Warrants. However, a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Common Warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder,9.99% or 19.99%) of the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock following such exercise. However, any holder of a Common Warrant may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99%, provided that the holder shall provide written notice at least 61 days’ prior written notice to the Company prior to the date such increase shall be effective.
Pursuant to the terms of the Common Warrant, upon the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, as defined in the Common Warrants, the holders of the Common Warrants are entitled to receive, upon exercise of the Common Warrant, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that such holders would have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Pre-Funded Warrants or the holder may require the Company or the successor entity to repurchase the unexercised portion of the Common Warrant for its Black Scholes Value, as defined in the Common Warrant; provided, however, if the holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any successor entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion) at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of the Common Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of common stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, shares or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of common stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of common stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of common stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the successor entity (which successor entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction.
The Company concluded that the Common Warrants did not meet the equity indexation criteria due to the certain inputs to estimate the number of shares issuable in a Fundamental Transaction and the Common Warrants are therefore accounted for as liabilities. The Company recorded $24.7 million to warrant liability upon issuance of the outstanding Common Warrants. The Company estimated fair value of the Common Warrants at the issuance date using the Black-Scholes valuation model and will remeasure the liability at each reporting date. The Company recorded a change in fair value of warrant liability of $8.5 million in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025. Refer to Note 3 for assumptions used to estimate the Common Warrants fair value.
As of December 31, 2025, none of the Common Warrants have been exercised.
NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating Leases
As of December 31, 2025, the Company leased approximately 25,900 square feet of laboratory and office space in Redwood City, California, under an operating lease that expires in August 2026.
In conjunction with signing the lease, the Company secured a letter of credit in favor of the lessor in the amount of $0.4 million. The funds related to this letter of credit are presented as restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The lease agreement includes an escalation clause for increased base rent and a renewal provision allowing the Company to extend this lease for an additional 60 months at the prevailing rental rate, which the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise. In addition to base rent, the Company pays its share of operating expenses and taxes.
In March 2025, the Company extended its existing short-term lease for 12,500 square feet of laboratory and office space in Redwood City, California, through August 2026. As a result, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $1.1 million in March 2025.
In December 2025, in connection with the cessation of the Company’s vivarium operations and consolidation of personnel office space, the Company ceased use of a portion of its leased headquarters space. As a result, the right-of-use asset associated with that lease was impaired and the Company recognized an impairment loss of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, recorded in research and development expense and general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the amounts of $0.2 million each.
The Company also pays variable costs related to its share of operating expenses and taxes. These variable costs are recorded as lease expense as incurred and presented as operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The components of lease costs, which were included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, are as follows (in thousands):
| Year ended December 31, | ||

License Agreements
In March 2021, the Company entered into the 2021 Stanford License Agreement (Note 6), which was amended in July 2023, pursuant to which the Company is required to pay annual license maintenance fees, clinical development and commercial sales milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $9.0 million, and low single-digit royalties on net sales of licensed products. All products were in development as of December 31, 2025, and no royalties were due as of such date. The Company paid $35,000 in annual license maintenance fees in each of April 2025 and March 2024, which were recognized as a research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no milestones were probable to be achieved and payable.
In December 2024, the Company entered into the 2024 Stanford License Agreement (Note 6), pursuant to which the Company is required to pay a license issue and annual license maintenance fees, clinical development and commercial sales milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $8.3 million and low single-digit royalties on net sales of licensed products. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized $25,000 related to the annual license maintenance fee as research and development expense in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss and as accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheet. All products were in development as of December 31, 2025, and no royalties were due as of such date. As of December 31, 2025, no milestones were probable to be achieved and payable.
Legal Proceedings
The Company, from time to time, may be party to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. On September 19, 2025, a shareholder class action complaint captionedGrant v. Jasper Therapeutics, Inc., et al. (Case No. 25-cv-08010) was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against us and certain of the Company’s current and former officers. The complaint alleges that certain material misstatements or omissions related to the ongoing clinical trials of briquilimab were made in violation of federal securities laws. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified monetary damages and an award of costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees and other costs. On December 3, 2025, a stipulated order was entered appointing co-lead plaintiffs and approving their selection of co-lead counsel, and on December 16, 2025, a stipulated order was entered setting a schedule for the filing and responses to an amended complaint. Per the terms of the December 16, 2025 stipulated order, an amended complaint captionedAllard, et al. v. Jasper Therapeutics, Inc., et al. (Case No. 25-cv-08010) was filed, and defendants’ responses to that amended complaint are due on or about April 20, 2026.
In addition, on November 5, 2025, a shareholder derivative complaint captionedBardauskas v. Martell, et al. (Case No. 25-cv-09561) was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California , and on December 22, 2025, another shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the same court and captionedWalsh v. Martell, et al. (Case No. 25-cv-10899). The derivative complaints name as defendants certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors, and allege claims related to the allegations raised in the shareholder class action complaint. On January 21, 2026, a stipulated order was entered, among other things, consolidating and staying the derivative actions. The Company believes the claims raised in these lawsuits are without merit, and intends to defend these matters vigorously. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail. The Company is unable to determine whether any loss ultimately will occur or to estimate the range of such loss; therefore, no amount of loss has been accrued in the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company due to costs involved, diversion of management resources, negative publicity, reputational harm, and other factors.
The Company believes that it is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements that contain a variety of representations and provide for general indemnification. The Company’s exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future. To date, the Company has not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to its indemnification obligations. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company does not have any material indemnification claims that were probable or reasonably possible and consequently has not recorded related liabilities.
NOTE 9. COMMON STOCK
The Company is authorized to issue 490,000,000 shares of voting common stock,2,000,000 shares of non-voting common stock, and 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock.

| Number of Share | Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value | |
|---|---|---|
| Unvested restricted stock units at December 31, 2024 | — | $— |

Performance Restricted Stock Units (PSUs)
In June 2024, the Company granted PSUs for 20,000 shares that will vest in full if the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market reaches or exceeds $35.00 per share (subject to adjustment for recapitalizations, stock splits and similar transactions) for thirty consecutive calendar days within two years from the grant date. If the vesting condition is not met within two years from the grant date, the PSUs will be forfeited. The Company concluded that issued PSUs are equity-based awards and include a market based vesting condition. The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair value of the PSUs with the following assumptions: common stock fair value of $23.95, which was the closing market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date, volatility of 133.00%, risk free rate of 4.87%, and vesting term of 2.0 years. Total estimated fair value of $0.4 million was recognized as stock-based compensation expense over 0.4 years, the derived requisite service period from the grant date.
The was no PSU activities during the year ended December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has unvested outstanding PSUs for 20,000 shares with the weighted-average grant date fair value of $21.90 per share.

There wasno unamortized stock-based compensation for shares issuable under the 2021 ESPP as of December 31, 2025. There was $0.2 million unamortized stock-based compensation for shares issuable under the 2024 ESPP as of December 31, 2025, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years. The Company recorded less than $0.1 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities related to contributions withheld as of December 31, 2025.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The following table presents stock-based compensation expenses related to options, PSUs and RSUs granted to employees and non-employees, employee stock purchase plan awards and restricted common stock shares issued to founders (in thousands):
| Year Ended December 31, | ||

The Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.5 million of stock-based compensation expense related to performance-based options, PSUs and RSUs during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Valuation of Stock Options
The grant date fair value of stock options was estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
| Year Ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Expected term (in years) | 5.27 – 6.08 | 5.50 – 6.08 |
| Expected volatility | 97.37% – 99.81% | 95.80% – 123.10% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.82% – 4.35% | 3.63% – 4.50% |
| Expected dividend yield | — | — |
The determination of the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model is affected by the estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock, as well as assumptions regarding a number of variables that are complex, subjective and generally require significant judgment to determine. The Company estimates the fair value of its common stock based on the closing quoted market price of its common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
Expected Term
The expected term represents the period that the options granted are expected to be outstanding and is determined using the simplified method (based on the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term) as the Company has concluded that its stock option exercise history does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
Expected Volatility
The Company derived the expected volatility from the average historical volatilities over a period approximately equal to the expected term of comparable publicly traded companies within its peer group that were deemed to be representative of future stock price trends. The Company will continue to apply this process until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of its own stock price becomes available.
Risk-Free Interest Rate
The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rate, with maturities similar to the expected term of the stock options.
Expected Dividend Yield
The Company does not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future and, therefore, uses an expected dividend yield of zero.
Valuation of ESPP Awards
The grant date fair value of ESPP awards granted under the 2024 ESPP was estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
| Year Ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Expected term (in years) | 0.49 – 2.00 | 0.38 – 2.00 |
| Expected volatility | 104.93% – 155.78% | 67.74% – 154.96% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.54% – 4.31% | 4.13% –5.36% |
| Expected dividend yield | — | — |

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company believes that, based on a number of factors such as the history of operating losses, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be fully realized, such that a full valuation allowance has been recorded. The valuation allowance increased by $16.1 million and $15.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The following table sets forth the Company’s federal and state net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2025 (in thousands):
| Amount | Expiration Years | |
|---|---|---|
| Net operating losses, Federal | $210,421 | Do not expire |
| Net operating losses, states primarily California | $64,946 | 2038-2042 |
| Tax credits, Federal | $6,630 | 2040-2045 |
| Tax credits, state | $4,680 | N/A |
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $2.1 million and $1.4 million available to reduce future taxable income, if any, for both federal and California state income tax purposes, respectively. The federal research and development credit carryforwards begin expiring in 2040, and California credits carryforward indefinitely.
Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and research credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation due to the ownership percentage change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (“IRC”), and similar state provisions. Annual limitations may result in the expiration of the net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards before they are utilized. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has completed an IRC Section 382 analysis from inception through the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company experienced an ownership change on November 21, 2019 related to Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock financing. Any net operating loss generated in excess of the $2.9 million will be permanently limited for California tax purposes. The Company reduced its California net operating loss deferred tax assets balance by the permanently limited amount of $0.6 million. Net federal operating losses are not limited as they can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company experienced an additional ownership change on September 24, 2021 in connection with the business combination with Amplitude Healthcare Acquisition Corporation, a special purpose acquisition company. Any further potential ownership change will be evaluated through a section 382 study. However, the Company does not expect there are additional tax attributes that will expire unused before the expiration periods.

State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of four years after filing of the respective return. To the extent the Company has tax attribute carryforwards, the tax years in which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state tax authorities to the extent utilized in a future period. No income tax returns are currently under examination by taxing authorities.
On July 4, 2025, new legislation was enacted in the United States which includes significant provisions, including, but not limited to, modifications of capitalization of research and development expenses and accelerated fixed asset depreciation. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027.
