Sale of Technology and Other Assets | 4. Sale of Technology and Other Assets On May 1, 2025, the Company out-licensed its early-stage discovery platforms, including certain platform and program intellectual property, to DCx Biotherapeutics Corporation (“DCx”). Under the terms of the out-licensing agreement, the Company received a $1.0 million upfront payment and is expected to receive near-term payments of $3.0 million. In addition, the Company received a 9.99% equity position in DCx, including certain dilution protection rights. The Company is eligible to receive potential future out-licensing, clinical and commercial milestone payments, as well as low-single digit tiered sales royalties for the development of certain products by DCx. Additionally, DCx retained some of the Company's preclinical research employees. As the assets, rights and employees transferred to DCx constitute a business as defined in ASC 805, Business Combinations, the Company accounted for the disposal by applying the derecognition guidance in ASC 810, Consolidation, which requires that a gain or loss be recognized for the difference between the carrying value of the assets sold and the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. As of May 1, 2025, the total fair value of the consideration received or receivable was determined to be $6.2 million, reflecting the $1.0 million upfront payment received, the $3.0 million cash consideration receivable in the near-term, the $1.6 million equity position in DCx (Note 5), and the $0.6 million dilution protection rights (Note 6). The carrying value of assets disposed of as of May 1, 2025 was $0.5 million, reflecting prepaid expenses for R&D services transferred to DCx. All equipment sold and intellectual property out-licensed to DCx had no carrying value as of May 1, 2025. In connection with the disposal, the Company recognized a gain on sale of technology and other assets in the amount of $5.7 million. Milestones and sales royalties were determined to be contingent consideration by the Company, which will be recognized when amounts are probable and estimable in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. No amounts have been recognized as of June 30, 2025. |
