| Collaboration Agreements | Collaboration Agreements G42 Agreements The Company and G42 Investments AI Holding RSC Ltd, a private limited company (“G42 Investments”), entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “G42 Purchase Agreement”), on May 31, 2022, pursuant to which the Company sold to G42 Investments 259,657 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $25.0 million, which was paid (i) $12.5 million in cash at the closing and (ii) $12.5 million in the form of a promissory note of G42 Investments paid in 2023. G42 Investments agreed to certain transfer restrictions (including restrictions on short sales or similar transactions) and restrictions on further acquisitions of shares. The Company granted G42 Investments certain shelf and piggyback registration rights with respect to those shares, including the ability to conduct an underwritten offering to resell such shares under certain circumstances. The registration rights include customary cooperation, cut-back, expense reimbursement, and indemnification provisions. Contemporaneously with the G42 Purchase Agreement, in 2022, the Company entered into a collaboration and license agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) with Cogna Technology Solutions LLC, an affiliate of G42 Investments, with those rights transferring to G42 Healthcare Research Technology Projects LLC ("G42"), an affiliate of G42 Investments. The Collaboration Agreement which requires G42 to work with the Company in performing clinical trials for cadisegliatin (TP399) as well as jointly creating a global development plan to develop, market, and commercialize cadisegliatin in certain countries in the Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia (the “Partner Territory”). Under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, G42 obtained a license under certain intellectual property controlled by the Company to enable it to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights under the Collaboration Agreement, including to develop and commercialize cadisegliatin in the Partner Territory. Specifically, the Company will share various protocols with G42 related to conducting the clinical trials and will provide the patient dosages and placebo of cadisegliatin needed to conduct the trials. Under the Collaboration Agreement, G42 has the right to develop and commercialize cadisegliatin in the Partner Territory at its own cost. The Company may supply at cost, or G42 may manufacture, cadisegliatin for commercial sale under terms to be agreed upon by the parties at a later date. Separately, the Company will conduct its clinical trials for cadisegliatin outside of the Partner Territory at its own cost. The results of each party’s clinical trials may be combined by the Company to seek FDA approval in the United States for cadisegliatin. The G42 Purchase Agreement also provides for, following the receipt of the cadisegliatin FDA Approval, at the option of G42 Investments, either (a) the issuance of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Milestone Shares”) having an aggregate value equal to $30.0 million or (b) the payment by the Company of $30.0 million in cash (the “Milestone Cash Payment”). The issuance of the Milestone Shares or the payment of the Milestone Cash Payment, as applicable, is conditioned upon receipt of the cadisegliatin FDA Approval and subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the G42 Purchase Agreement. There can be no assurance that the cadisegliatin FDA Approval will be granted or as to the timing thereof. Once commercialization takes place in the Partner Territory, the Company will receive royalties in the single digits from G42 Healthcare on the net sales of cadisegliatin for a period of at least ten years after the first commercial sale of cadisegliatin in the Partner Territory. A premium was paid on the Class A common stock by G42 Investments of $18.7 million, net of a note receivable discount of $0.6 million, which was deferred and recorded as a contract liability. This premium was determined to be the transaction price for all remaining obligations under the agreements and accounted for under ASC 808 or ASC 606 based on determination of the unit of account. As of December 31, 2025 $18.7 million was recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company determined that certain commitments under the agreements are in the scope of ASC 808 as both the Company and G42 are active participants in the clinical trials of cadisegliatin, and both are exposed to significant risks and rewards based on the success of the clinical trials and subsequent FDA approval. G42 is determined to be a vendor of the Company during the clinical trial phase, working on the Company’s behalf to complete research and development activities, and not in a customer capacity. The Company accounted for the commitments related to the clinical trials, which includes transfer of trial protocols, supply of clinical trial dosages, and collaboration on the joint development committee as an ASC 808 unit of account, applying the recognition and measurement principles of ASC 606 by analogy. The Company will recognize collaboration revenue for its development activities under ASC 808 over time based on the estimated period of performance. By applying the principles in ASC 606 by analogy, the Company identified the performance obligation and considered the timing of satisfaction of the obligation to account for the pattern of revenue recognition. In order to recognize collaboration revenue, generally, the Company would begin satisfying its performance obligation and G42 would need to be able to use and benefit from delivery of the assets or services. The performance obligation under the agreements that fall within the ASC 808 unit of account are concentrated in the clinical trials. As of March 31, 2026, the clinical trials had not commenced. Accordingly, no collaboration revenue was recognized for the ASC 808 unit of account during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. $1.3 million remains deferred and recorded in contract liabilities as of March 31, 2026. The Company identified certain commitments that are in the scope of ASC 606 as G42’s relationship is that of a customer for these commitments. The significant performance obligations that are in the scope of ASC 606 are (1) the development, commercialization and manufacturing license of the intellectual property (IP) once restrictions on the use of the IP have been lifted by the Company and (2) a potential material right to a commercial supply agreement. As a result, the Company recognizes revenue associated with the development, commercialization, and manufacturing license at a point in time upon the release of the IP restrictions. As of March 31, 2026, the Company lifted the contractual restrictions on the use of the IP. Accordingly, the Company determined that control of the license was transferred to G42 at that point in time, and the related performance obligation was satisfied. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized $16.9 million license revenue associated with the transfer of the IP. No license revenue was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company will recognize revenue from the material right related to G42’s ability to purchase the commercial supply at cost as G42 purchases the commercial supply from the Company, which will occur after the completion of the initial clinical trials (if G42 decides to purchase the clinical supply from the Company). No revenue has been recognized related to the commercial supply agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, as G42 has not exercised its option to purchase commercial supply as of those dates. $0.5 million remains deferred and recorded in contract liabilities as of March 31, 2026. Newsoara License Agreement The Company is party to a license agreement with Newsoara Biopharma Co., Ltd., (“Newsoara”) (the “Newsoara License Agreement”) under which Newsoara obtained an exclusive and sublicensable license to develop and commercialize the Company’s phosphodiesterase type 4 inhibitors (“PDE4”) program, including the compound HPP737, in China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and other pacific rim countries (collectively, the “Newsoara License Territory”). Additionally, under the Newsoara License Agreement, the Company obtained a non-exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-free license to develop and commercialize certain Newsoara patent rights and know-how related to the Company’s PDE4 program for therapeutic uses in humans outside of the Newsoara License Territory. In accordance with ASC 606, the Company identified all of the performance obligations at the inception of the Newsoara License Agreement. The significant obligations were determined to be the license and the technology transfer services. The Company determined that the license and technology transfer services represent a single performance obligation because they were not capable of being distinct on their own. The transaction price was fully allocated to this combined performance obligation and the related revenue was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2018. The Newsoara License Agreement was amended in 2020 to change certain future milestone payments and patent rights (the “First Newsoara Amendment”). On January 30, 2026, the Company entered into a new Second Amendment with Newsoara. Although the Company had previously entered into an amendment with Newsoara to expand the Original Agreement, that amendment became null and void in June 2025. Under the new Second Amendment, Newsoara's rights in the Company's PDE4 inhibitor, HPP737, will expand to include all countries of the world upon Newsoara's payment of the upfront fee of $20.0 million. The Second Amendment also requires Newsoara to pay vTv LLC up to approximately $50.0 million in development milestones, $65.0 million in sales-related milestones and royalties in the mid single digits depending upon sales volumes. In February 2026, the Company received and recognized the $20.0 million upfront payment from Newsoara as stipulated in the Second Amendment and recognized the related revenue due to satisfying the performance obligation. As of March 31, 2026 $3.0 million milestones have been met.
