Description of business
Formerly known as BeiGene, Ltd., BeOne Medicines Ltd. (the “Company” or “BeOne”) is a global oncology company discovering and developing innovative treatments that are more accessible to cancer patients worldwide.
Effective May 27, 2025, the Company changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to Switzerland through a transaction known as a continuation under Section 206 of the Companies Act (as amended) of the Cayman Islands and Article 161 of the Swiss Federal Act on Private International Law (such transaction, the “Continuation”), The Continuation did not change the accounting basis under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) of any of the Company’s consolidated assets, liabilities, equity, or any previous results of operations or cash flows.
In connection with the Continuation, ordinary shares held by the Company or one of its controlled subsidiaries immediately prior to the effective date of the Continuation became part of the Company’s issued share capital and are considered ordinary shares of the Company, or “treasury shares” under Swiss law. See the Company’s final prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) on March 10, 2025 for a full description of the changes related to the Company’s ordinary shares following the Continuation.
Since its inception in 2010, the Company has become a fully integrated global organization with over 12,000 employees worldwide.
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the related footnote disclosures are unaudited. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including guidance with respect to interim financial information and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future annual or interim period.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Areas where management uses subjective judgment include, but are not limited to, estimating the useful lives of long-lived assets, estimating variable consideration in product sales and collaboration revenue arrangements, assessing the impairment of long-lived assets, valuation and recognition of share-based compensation expenses, realizability of deferred tax assets, estimating uncertain tax positions, valuation of inventory, estimating the allowance for credit losses, determining defined benefit pension plan obligations, measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, estimates related to research and development accruals, estimates related to the sale of future royalty liability and the fair value of financial instruments. Management bases the estimates on historical experience, known trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recent accounting pronouncements
New accounting standards which have not yet been adopted
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities (ASU 2025-10), which establishes authoritative guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government grants. Under ASU 2025-10, government grants are recognized when it is probable that the entity will both comply with the conditions of the grant and the grant will be received. The ASU provides specific accounting models for grants related to assets and grants related to income, including options to recognize government grants as deferred income or as a reduction of the asset’s cost basis. The ASU also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature of government grants, significant terms and conditions, accounting policies applied, and amounts recognized in the financial statements. ASU 2025-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-10 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This update removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages throughout Subtopic 350-40. The update requires an entity to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The update further specifies that the disclosures in Subtopic 360-10 are required for all capitalized internal-use software costs. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance can be applied using a prospective transition approach, a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or a retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements of adopting this guidance.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update requires that at each interim and annual reporting period public entities disclose (1) the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion in commonly presented expense captions; (2) certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current GAAP in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements; (3) a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively; and (4) the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, the definition of selling expenses. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. This update clarifies that ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements of adopting this guidance.
