Organization

Coherus Oncology, Inc. (the “Company” or “Coherus”) is a fully integrated commercial-stage innovative oncology company with an approved next-generation programmed death receptor-1 (“PD-1”) inhibitor, LOQTORZI® (toripalimab-tpzi), and a pipeline that includes two mid-stage clinical candidates targeting liver, lung, head & neck, and other cancers. Our strategy is to expand the use of LOQTORZI in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (“NPC”) and advance the development of new indications for LOQTORZI in combination with both our pipeline candidates as well as our industry partners, driving synergies from proprietary combinations, including first-in-class anticancer agents. On May 29, 2025, the Company changed its corporate name from Coherus BioSciences, Inc. to Coherus Oncology, Inc. to better align with its exclusive focus on proprietary innovative immuno-oncology medicines following the completion of the recent divestitures of our biosimilar businesses and the transition to an exclusive focus on immuno-oncology.

The Company previously owned UDENYCA (pegfilgrastim-cbqv), which was launched commercially in a pre-filled syringe presentation in the United States in January 2019, followed by the launch of UDENYCA in an autoinjector presentation in May 2023 and the launch of UDENYCA ONBODY in February 2024. On December 2, 2024, the Company and Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (“Intas”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “UDENYCA Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to divest the UDENYCA franchise (the “UDENYCA Business”) to Intas (the “UDENYCA Sale”). On April 11, 2025 (the “UDENYCA Closing Date”), the Company completed the divestiture of the UDENYCA Business to Intas for upfront, all-cash consideration of $483.4 million, inclusive of $118.4 million for UDENYCA product inventory. Intas has designated Accord BioPharma, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Intas (“Accord” and, together with Intas, the “Intas Parties”) to purchase the physical assets, including product inventory. In addition, the Company is also eligible to receive two additional payments of $37.5 million each (together, the “Earnout Payments”). The first such payment is payable by Intas to the Company if net sales (as defined in the UDENYCA Purchase Agreement, “Net Sales”) of UDENYCA for four consecutive fiscal quarters from July 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026 are equal to or greater than $300 million, and the second such payment is payable by Intas to the Company if Net Sales of UDENYCA for four consecutive fiscal quarters from July 1, 2025 through March 31, 2027 are equal to or greater than $350 million. The UDENYCA Sale represented the last and most significant divestiture of the Company’s biosimilar businesses, which comprised the UDENYCA, YUSIMRY and CIMERLI franchises; therefore, the strategic shift criteria had been met. As a result, the Company has included discontinued operations presentation in its condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. Refer to Note 6. Discontinued Operations for more information. 

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Coherus and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals that the Company believes are necessary to fairly state the financial position and the results of the Company’s operations and cash flows for interim periods in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Interim-period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for a full year or any subsequent interim period.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”) filed with the SEC.

Use of Estimates

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

Segment Reporting and Geographic Disclosures

The Company operates and manages its business as one reportable and operating segment, which is the business of developing and commercializing human pharmaceutical products. The Company’s chief executive officer, as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), manages and allocates resources to the operations of the Company on an entity-wide basis. Managing and allocating resources on an entity-wide basis enables the CODM to assess the overall level of resources available and how to best deploy these resources across functions. The CODM assesses operating performance and makes operating decisions primarily based on net income (loss), cash on-hand and investments, and cash flows. All expense categories on the condensed consolidated statements of operations are significant, and there are no other significant segment expenses that would require disclosure. Asset information is not regularly provided to the CODM for assessing performance and allocating resources other than cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities. Primarily, all revenue is generated and all long-lived assets are maintained in the United States.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of immaterial deposits for letters of credit that the Company has provided to secure its obligations under certain leases and is included in other assets, non-current on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are recorded net of allowances for chargebacks, cash discounts for prompt payment and credit losses. The Company estimates an allowance for expected credit losses by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The corresponding expense for the credit loss allowance is reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses. The credit loss allowance was immaterial as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Net Revenues

The Company sells to wholesalers and distributors, (collectively, “Customers”). The Customers then resell to hospitals and clinics (collectively, “Healthcare Providers”) pursuant to contracts with the Company. In addition to distribution agreements with Customers and contracts with Healthcare Providers, the Company enters into arrangements with group purchasing organizations that provide for United States government-mandated or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks and discounts. The Company also enters into rebate arrangements with payers, which consist primarily of commercial insurance companies and government entities, to cover the reimbursement of products to Healthcare Providers. The Company provides co-payment assistance to patients who have commercial insurance and meet certain eligibility requirements. Revenue from product sales is recognized at the point when a Customer obtains

control of the product and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which generally occurs at the time product is shipped to the Customer. Payment terms differ by jurisdiction and customer, but payment terms typically range from 30 to approximately 80 days from date of shipment and may be extended during the launch period of a new product.

The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of vaccines to the U.S. federal government for placement into vaccine stockpiles in accordance with SEC Interpretation, Commission Guidance Regarding Accounting for Sales of Vaccines and BioTerror Countermeasures to the Federal Government for Placement into the Pediatric Vaccine Stockpile or the Strategic National Stockpile. This interpretation allows companies to recognize revenue for sales of vaccines into U.S. government stockpiles even though these sales might not meet the criteria for revenue recognition under other accounting guidance.

Discontinued Operations

The Company evaluates all disposal transactions to determine whether it qualifies for reporting as discontinued operations. A disposal of a component or a group of components is reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results when the following occurs: (1) a component (or group of components) meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale; (2) the component or group of components is disposed of by sale; or (3) the component or group of components is disposed of other than by sale (for example, by abandonment or in a distribution to owners in a spin-off). For any component classified as held for sale or disposed of by sale or other than by sale, qualifying for presentation as a discontinued operation, the Company reports the results of operations of the discontinued operations (including any gain or loss recognized on the disposal or loss recognized on classification as held for sale of a discontinued operation), less applicable income taxes (benefit), as a separate component in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for all prior periods presented. The Company also reports net assets transferred to Accord as separate line items on the condensed consolidated balance sheet for prior periods.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in prior years’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation of discontinued operations, including amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations and various footnotes. There were no changes to net income (loss). In addition, certain amounts in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation, and these changes had no impact on the net cash (used in) provided by operating activities and financing activities.

2025 Tax Reform

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law in the United States. This comprehensive tax legislation contains a broad range of tax reforms, including provisions that allow for the immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenses, restore and make permanent 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying assets, and ease limitations on the deductibility of interest expense. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions taking effect in 2025 and others being implemented through various future years. The Company is evaluating the impacts of the OBBBA on its condensed consolidated financial statements, with effects beginning to be reflected in the third quarter of 2025, the period of enactment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following are recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has not yet adopted:

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides qualitative and quantitative updates to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, among others, in order to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures, including consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation by jurisdiction of income taxes paid. The new standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is also permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on its financial statement disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires public entities to disclose certain disaggregated costs and expenses on an annual and interim basis in the notes to the financial statements. It also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses, and the Company’s definition of selling expenses. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on its financial statement disclosures.

The Company has reviewed other recent accounting pronouncements and concluded they are either not applicable to the business or that no material effect is expected on the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.
