Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Organization and Business
Nature of Business
Xeris Biopharma Holdings, Inc. ("Xeris," "Xeris Biopharma" or the "Company") is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapies for people with chronic endocrine and neurological diseases in the United States. The Company offers Recorlev for the treatment of Cushing’s syndrome, Gvoke for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia, and Keveyis for the treatment of Primary Periodic Paralysis ("PPP"). The Company leverages its proprietary formulation technologies (XeriSol and XeriJect) in the creation of new products such as its own XP-8121 (once-weekly subcutaneous (SC) levothyroxine) as well as through the formation of development partnerships with other biopharmaceutical companies.
Throughout this document, unless otherwise noted, references to Gvoke include Gvoke PFS, Gvoke HypoPen, and Gvoke Kit (glucagon).
The Company relies on a number of single source suppliers and manufacturers for the supply of its products and product candidates.
Note 2. Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies and estimates
Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), including those for interim financial information, and with the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 6, 2026.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, but that is not required for interim reporting purposes, have been condensed or omitted.
Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") and Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").
Basis of consolidation
These condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Xeris and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses included in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue recognition
The Company applies the guidance in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to all contracts with customers within the scope of the standard.
The Company sells product primarily to wholesalers or a specialty pharmacy that subsequently resell to retail pharmacies or patients. The Company enters into arrangements with payors, group purchasing organizations, and healthcare providers that provide for government-mandated or privately-negotiated rebates, chargebacks and discounts related to the Company's products. The Company currently sells Recorlev, Gvoke, and Keveyis in the United States only.
Revenue is recognized when the Company's customer (e.g., a wholesaler or specialty pharmacy) obtains control of promised goods or services, which is when the Company's obligations under the terms of the contract with the customer are satisfied, based on the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
Revenues are recorded at the net product sales price, which includes estimated allowances for patient copay assistance programs, prompt payment discounts, payor rebates, chargebacks, service fees, and product returns, all of which are recorded at the time of sale to the pharmaceutical wholesaler or other customer. The Company applies significant judgments and estimates in determining some of these allowances. If actual results differ from its estimates, adjustments are made to these allowances in the period in which the actual results or updates to estimates become known.
Such revenue is reported as product revenue, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Additionally, the Company earns revenue from research collaborations for the use of Xeris' proprietary formulation technology platforms and royalties from branded products. Such revenue is recognized as earned in accordance with contract terms when it can be reasonably estimated and collectability is reasonably assured. This revenue is reported as royalty, contract and other revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to research collaboration performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of the end of the reporting period is $5.0 million.
Concentration of credit risk
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, four customers accounted for 99% and 98% of the Company's gross product revenue, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, four customers accounted for 96% of the Company's gross product revenue. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the same four customers accounted for 97% and 92% of the trade accounts receivable, net, respectively.
New accounting pronouncements
Adopted accounting standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) - Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments. The FASB issued final guidance to clarify the requirements for determining whether to account for certain early settlements of convertible debt instruments as induced conversions. The guidance, which is based on a consensus-for-exposure of the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF), is intended to address issues that stakeholders encountered when applying the guidance on induced conversions in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or Codification) 470-20, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options, to certain settlements of cash convertible debt instruments. For all entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted ASU 2020-06, which simplified an issuer’s accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2026 and it did not have an immediate impact on the Company's Financial Statements and related disclosures.
Pending accounting standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities (PBEs). The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for all PBEs for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the timing and effects of the adoption of this standard on the Company's disclosures.
In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220). This standard clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is evaluating the timing and effects of the adoption of this standard on the Company's disclosures.

Convertible Senior Notes
In September 2023, the Company completed the exchange of $32.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its then outstanding Convertible Notes due 2025 ("2025 Convertible Notes") or $33.6 million in aggregate principal amount of new 8.00% Convertible Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Convertible Notes").
In March and April of 2025, holders of all outstanding 2025 Convertible Notes, totaling $15.2 million in aggregate principal amount, were converted by the noteholders into 4,978,151 shares of the Company's common stock.
The 2028 Convertible Notes were senior, unsecured obligations and are equal in right of payment with the issuer's existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness, senior in right of payment to its future indebtedness, if any, that is expressly subordinated to the 2028 Convertible Notes, and effectively subordinated to its existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness. The 2028 Convertible Notes were structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company or Xeris Pharma is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries other than Xeris Pharma.
At any time before the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, holders of the then outstanding 2028 Convertible Notes had the option to convert their 2028 Convertible Notes into shares of the Company's common stock, together, if applicable, with cash in lieu of any fractional share, at a conversion rate of 326.7974 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2028 Convertible Notes, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.
In June 2026, the Company executed an exchange agreement to enable settlement in cash of $23.0 million in aggregate principal outstanding with certain holders of their 2028 Convertible Notes. Execution of this exchange agreement resulted in recognition of an extinguishment loss of $30.8 million, which represents the difference between the amortized cost of this component of the 2028 Convertible Notes immediately prior to the exchange and their fair value of $53.7 million. As of June 30, 2026, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Convertible Notes was $33.6 million, which includes the $10.5 million of the holders that did not participate in the exchange agreement. The remaining balance of unamortized debt issuance costs have been reflected as a direct reduction to the loan balance. The effective interest rate of the 2028 Convertible Notes, including the amortization of debt issuance costs was 8.9%.
In July 2026, the Company settled its obligations with the noteholders of the 2028 Convertible Notes, after whichno notes remain outstanding. The settlement was completed by issuing 8.6 million shares of the Company's common stock and $23.0 million of cash.
The fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes is determined using current interest rates based on credit ratings and the remaining term of maturity. As of June 30, 2026, the fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes was approximately $92.2 million. The fair value of the convertible debt was estimated using inputs for volatility, the Company's stock price, time to maturity, the risk-free rate and the Company's credit spread, some of which are considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy disclosed in "Note 10 - Fair value measurement."
Loan Agreement
On March 5, 2024, the Company and certain subsidiary guarantors of the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") with the lenders from time to time parties thereto (the "Lenders") and Hayfin Services LLP, as administrative agent for the Lenders, pursuant to which the Company and its subsidiaries party thereto granted a first priority security interest on substantially all of their assets, including intellectual property, subject to certain exceptions. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Credit Agreement dated March 8, 2022, between the Company, Xeris Pharma, and certain subsidiary guarantors of the Company and Hayfin Services, LLP, as administrative agent for the lenders ("Credit Agreement"). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provided for the Lenders to extend $200.0 million in term loans (the "Tranche 1 Loans") to Xeris Pharma on the closing date and $15.2 million in additional term loans (the "Tranche 2 Loans" and, together with the Tranche 1 Loans, the "2029 Loans") on any date after the closing date and through July 15, 2025. The Tranche 2 Loans were only to be used to redeem the then outstanding 2025 Convertible Notes. The Company did not borrow any funds under the Tranche 2 Loans, which expired on July 15, 2025. In conjunction with the execution of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the aggregate principal balance of $150.0 million plus all accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under the Credit Agreement was continued under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as Tranche 1 Loans. In addition to utilizing the proceeds to repay the obligations under the Credit Agreement in full, the proceeds of the Tranche 1 Loans are being used for general corporate purposes. After repayment, the 2029 Loans may not be re-borrowed. The 2029 Loans will mature on March 5, 2029.
The 2029 Loans incur interest at a floating per annum rate in an amount equal to the sum of (i)6.95% (or 5.95% if the replacement rate is in effect) plus (ii) the greater of (x) the forward-looking term rate based on SOFR for a three month tenor (or the replacement rate, if applicable), and (y)2.00% per annum. The remaining balance of unamortized debt issuance costs have been reflected as a direct reduction to the loan balance. The effective interest rate of the 2029 Loans, including the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs, amounts to approximately 11.4%. As of June 30, 2026, the fair value of the loan approximates its book value.
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement allows Xeris Pharma to voluntarily prepay the outstanding amounts thereunder. Xeris Pharma is subject to an early prepayment fee equal to (i) for any prepayment that occurs on or prior to the second anniversary of the closing date, the applicable make-whole amount, (ii) for any prepayment that occurs after the second anniversary of the closing date but on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the closing date, the product of (x) the amount of any principal so prepaid, multiplied by (y) for any prepayment that occurs (A) after the second anniversary of the closing date and on or prior to the third anniversary of the closing date, five percent (5.00%), (B) after the third anniversary of the closing date and on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the closing date, three percent (3.00%), and (C) after the fourth anniversary of the closing date, zero percent (0.00%).
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, covenants that limit or restrict the Company's (and its subsidiaries) ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, merge or consolidate, make acquisitions, pay dividends or other distributions or repurchase equity, make investments, dispose of assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to certain exceptions.
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was accounted for as a modification of debt in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments, thus there was no gain or loss recognized on the transaction.
The following table sets forth the Company's future minimum principal payments on the 2028 Convertible Notes and the 2029 Loans (in thousands):

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is 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. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
Level 1: Measured using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).
Fair value measurements are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The determination of the fair values stated below considers the market for the financial assets and liabilities, the associated credit risk and other factors as required. The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
The following tables present the Company's fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):
| Total as of June 30, 2026 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |

Note 11. Stock Compensation Plans
The 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "2018 Plan") was adopted by the Board of Directors in April 2018 and approved by the Company's stockholders in June 2018. The 2018 Plan replaced the 2011 Plan as the Board of Directors decided not to make additional awards under the 2011 Stock Option Issuance Plan (the "2011 Plan"). Under the 2018 Plan, equity awards may be granted to the Company's officers, employees, directors, consultants and advisors.

The ESPP permits eligible employees to authorize payroll deductions of up to 15% of their compensation to purchase up to the number of shares of common stock determined by dividing $25,000 by the closing market price of Xeris common stock on the offering date. The purchase price per share at each purchase date is equal to 85% of the lower of (i) the closing market price per share of Xeris common stock on the employee's offering date or (ii) the closing market price per share of Xeris common stock on the purchase date. Each offering period has asix-month duration and purchase interval. As of June 30, 2026, there were 5.7 million shares available for issuance under the ESPP.
The Equity Inducement Plan (the "Inducement Plan") was adopted by the Board of Directors in February 2019.

As of June 30, 2026, there was $34.6 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining vesting period of 1.7 years. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the weighted-average grant date fair value per share of RSUs granted was $7.19 and $3.71, respectively.
Stock Appreciation Rights
Stock appreciation rights ("SARs") are granted under the 2018 Plan. SARs are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. SARs allow the recipient to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of the Company's common stock between the exercise date and the date of grant. SARs are settled in cash and vest in full and automatically exercise on the second anniversary of the date of grant, subject to continued service through the vesting date. SARs are settled in cash, and accordingly are classified as liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and are remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
SARs activity under the 2018 Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was as follows:
| Number of SARs | Weighted Average Exercise PricePer Share | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years) | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in millions) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding - December 31, 2025 | 2,650,000 | $3.36 | 0.98 | $11.8 |
| Granted | — | $— | ||
| Outstanding - June 30, 2026 | 2,650,000 | $3.36 | 0.48 | $11.9 |

| Expected term (in years) | 2.0 |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.9% |
| Expected stock price volatility | 44.9% |
| Expected dividend yield | —% |
The risk-free interest rate for SARs is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of remeasurement. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. As of June 30, 2026, there was $2.9 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to SARs.

Note 12. Leases
The Company has non-cancellable operating leases for office and laboratory space, which expire at various times in 2031 and 2036. The non-cancellable lease agreements provide for monthly lease payments, which increase during the term of each lease agreement.
All of the Company's leases are classified as operating leases, which are included as operating lease right-of-use assets and current and non-current operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company's operating lease costs are included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
A majority of the Company's lease agreements include fixed rental payments. Certain lease agreements include fixed rental payments that are adjusted periodically by a fixed rate. The fixed payments, including the effects of changes in the fixed rate or amount, and renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised, are included in the measurement of the related lease liability. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, which includes renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised. The majority of the Company's real estate leases require that the Company pay maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance in addition to rent. These payments are generally variable and based on actual costs incurred by the lessor. Therefore, these amounts are not included in the consideration of the contract when determining the right-of-use asset and lease liability but are reflected as variable lease expenses.
As the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The Company considers observable inputs as of the effective date of the ASC 842 adoption including the credit rating, existing borrowings and other relevant borrowing rates, such as risk-free rates like the United States Treasury rate, and then adjusting as necessary for the appropriate lease term. The incremental borrowing rate is reassessed if there is a change to the lease term or if a modification occurs and it is not accounted for as a separate contract. As of June 30, 2026, the Company's operating leases had a weighted-average remaining lease term of 9.2 years and a weighted-average discount rate of 11.9%.

Contingencies
Legal Matters
On February 26, 2026; March 20, 2026; June 4, 2026; and July 13, 2026, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Xeris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Strongbridge Dublin Limited, filed patent infringement lawsuits under the Hatch-Waxman Act in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against defendants (i) Torrent Pharmaceuticals Limited (along with its affiliate, “Torrent”) and Somerset Therapeutics, LLC (along with its affiliates, “Somerset”), (ii) Sandoz Inc. (“Sandoz”) and Zydus Lifesciences Global FZZE (along with its affiliates, “Zydus”), and (iii) Novitium Pharma, LLC (along with its affiliate, “Novitium”) in two separate actions, respectively (each, an “ANDA Filer”). These lawsuits were filed following receipt of a Paragraph IV certification notice letter (each, a “Notice Letter”) from each of Torrent, Somerset, Sandoz, Zydus, and Novitium regarding the filing of its respective Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) seeking approval to manufacture, use, or sell a generic version of Recorlev®. The Notice Letters stated that each ANDA Filer’s ANDAs contained Paragraph IV certifications alleging that four of the Company’s Orange Book-listed patents covering Recorlev® (U.S. Patent Nos. 11,020,393, 11,278,547, 11,903,940 and 12,377,096) (collectively, the “Orange Book Patents), which are scheduled to expire in March 2040, are invalid, unenforceable and/or will not be infringed by each ANDA Filer’s manufacture, use, or sale of the generic product described in its respective ANDA submission.
Collectively, the complaints allege that, by filing ANDAs for their respective generic products, each of Torrent, Somerset, Sandoz, Zydus, and Novitium has infringed the Orange Book Patents for Recorlev®. The complaints seek an order preventing the FDA from granting final approval of the respective ANDAs before the expiration of the Orange Book Patents and a permanent injunction to prevent each of the defendants from commercializing a generic version of Recorlev®, until the expiration of the Orange Book Patents, including any applicable extensions and additional periods of exclusivity. On June 8, 2026, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey entered an order consolidating for all pretrial purposes the actions filed on February 26, 2026 against Somerset and Torrent and the action filed on March 20, 2026 against Sandoz and Zydus (“Consolidated Action”). On July 20, 2026, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey entered an order consolidating for all pretrial purposes the actions against Novitium filed on June 4, 2026 and July 13, 2026 into the Consolidated Action. A bench trial has been tentatively scheduled for November 2028. The filing of each lawsuit within 45 days of receipt of each of the respective Notice Letters triggered an automatic stay of the FDA’s approval of each of the respective ANDAs in accordance with the Hatch-Waxman Act until up to June 30, 2029, in the absence of a decision from the court finding all asserted claims invalid or not infringed before that date.
The Company may receive additional Notice Letters in the future from ANDA filers seeking approval of a generic version of Recorlev and may file additional ANDA lawsuits in the future.
From time to time, the Company may become involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2026, management was not aware of any existing, pending or threatened legal actions that would have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
Note 14. Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic and diluted net loss per common share are determined by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. For periods in which the Company was in a net loss, the shares issuable upon conversion, exercise or vesting of Convertible Notes, warrants, stock option awards and RSUs have been excluded from the calculation because their effects would be anti-dilutive. Therefore, the weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per common share are the same.
The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding due to their anti-dilutive effect:
| Six Months Ended June 30, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| Shares to be issued upon conversion of Convertible Notes | 10,971,895 | 10,971,895 |
| Restricted stock units (RSUs) | 9,405,109 | 14,468,303 |
| Stock Options | 7,067,252 | 7,077,512 |
| Warrants | 125,999 | 5,758,536 |
| Total anti-dilutive securities excluded from EPS computation | 27,570,255 | 38,276,246 |
Note 15. Segment Reporting
The Company is a single operating and reporting segment dedicated to developing and commercializing therapies for people with chronic endocrine and neurological diseases. The Company has identified the Chief Executive Officer as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM").
The CODM regularly reviews consolidated financial information, including net loss, to assess the performance of the Company and allocate resources. The CODM also considers budget versus actual results and revenue trends to evaluate expenditures and allocate resources across the organization.
The condensed consolidated financial statements provide a comprehensive view of the Company’s overall financial condition, including information on segment assets and liabilities reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The significant expense categories are consistent with those presented on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, and the CODM does not receive or use any other disaggregated or significant expense information for decision making purposes.
