| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as 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 determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements are classified on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:
In many cases, a valuation technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy described above. The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy. 6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments – (continued) The carrying amounts of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these level 1 instruments. As a result of the Acquisition of VCN the Company acquired interest-free or below-market interest rate loans extended by Spanish government. The carrying value of the loans payable approximate fair value and are classified under level 2. In connection with the Acquisition of VCN, the Company was required to pay up to $70.2 million in additional consideration upon the achievement of certain milestones, including regulatory filings. In September 2022, the Company received approval from the FDA to proceed with the Phase 2 clinical trial of VCN-01 (zabilugene almadenorepvec) in PDAC. Due to this approval the Company paid Grifols Innovation and New Technologies Limited (“Grifols”), $3.0 million in the fourth quarter 2022. In August 2023, the Company initiated patient dosing in the U.S. in its Phase 2 clinical trial of VCN-01 in PDAC. As a result, payment was made subsequent to September 30, 2023 in the amount of $3.25 million. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company met the primary survival and safety endpoints in its VIRAGE Phase 2b clinical trial evaluating the Company’s lead product candidate VCN-01. As a result of achieving the primary survival and safety endpoints in the Phase 2b clinical trial, the Company is obligated to pay Grifols $6.0 million. On August 5, 2025, the Company and Grifols agreed to defer the $6.0 million milestone payment into three payments, as follows: $500,000 was paid in August 2025, $500,000 was paid in December 2025, and the remaining $5.0 million payment will be deferred pending ongoing discussions with Grifols. The discounted cash flow method used to value this contingent consideration includes inputs of not readily observable market data, which are Level 3 inputs. The fair value of the contingent consideration was $10.0 million as of March 31, 2026 and is reflected as contingent consideration, current portion of $1.2 million and non-current contingent consideration liability of $8.8 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized in operating expense a $27,000 and $21,000, respectfully, fair value adjustment increase to contingent consideration. There were no transfers in or out of the level 3 liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The following table summarizes the change in the fair value as determined by Level 3 inputs for the contingent consideration liabilities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
