| Unaudited Financial Information | Unaudited Financial Information— In the opinion of the Company, the information furnished reflects all adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the reported interim periods. The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rallybio Corporation and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with Rallybio’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (our “Annual Report”). The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report. There have been no new accounting policies, including the adoption of new accounting standards during the three months ended March 31, 2026, unless otherwise noted below, which could be expected to materially impact the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. |

| Future Milestone and Royalty Assets | Future Milestone and Royalty Assets As part of the JV Sale, the Company received consideration including an estimated $3.0 million in future contingent milestones and royalty payments, which are recognized as a contingent consideration asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of this contingent consideration was determined using a model that incorporates significant unobservable inputs based on Company estimates, external data, and management’s judgment and forecasts. Key assumptions in the model include the discount rate, the timing of expected cash flows, the probability of achieving the milestone and royalty payments, and projected future net revenues. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of the contingent consideration when impairment indicators arise and records an impairment loss if the carrying amount materially exceeds the reassessed fair value. Increases in the carrying value are recognized only when contingent gains are realized. Since the contingent payments are tied to Phase 1 clinical study milestones and future royalty payments, the Company believes the likelihood of timely payment by Recursion is uncertain. |
Future Milestone and Royalty Assets As part of the JV Sale, the Company received consideration including an estimated $3.0 million in future contingent milestones and royalty payments, which are recognized as a contingent consideration asset within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of this contingent consideration was determined using a model that incorporates significant unobservable inputs based on Company estimates, external data, and management’s judgment and forecasts. Key assumptions in the model include the discount rate, the timing of expected cash flows, the probability of achieving the milestone and royalty payments, and projected future net revenues. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of the Contingent Consideration when impairment indicators arise and records an impairment loss if the carrying amount materially exceeds the reassessed fair value. Increases in the carrying value are recognized only when contingent gains are realized. Since the contingent payments are tied to Phase 1 clinical study milestones and future royalty payments, the Company believes the likelihood of timely payment by Recursion is remote.

| Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ( 2024-03”). This ASU requires public entities to disclose additional transparency on certain costs and expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has chosen not to early adopt this standard and is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this standard on its financial statements. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures 2023-09”) which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. The ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 were early adopted by the Company on a prospective basis. There was no material impact to the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting ASU 2023-09. See Note 8, “Income Taxes” for additional detail. In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity 2025-03”), which revises current guidance for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity that meets the definition of a business. The amendments require that an entity consider the same factors that are currently required for determining which entity is the accounting acquirer in other acquisition transactions. The Company early adopted this ASU on a prospective basis as of October 1, 2025. There was no material impact to the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting ASU 2025-03. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ( 2024-03”).

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. On February 6, 2026, the Company executed a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.0001, at a ratio of

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates in the consolidated financial statements. While management believes that estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates are those used in the determination of the fair value of its common units and incentive units awarded to employees prior to the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), for purposes of recording share-based incentive compensation, the fair value of stock options, as well as contracted research and development expenses incurred. |

| Liquidity and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern | Liquidity and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of $9.0 million and $57.8 million, respectively. The loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 included a $23.0 million gain in connection with the JV Sale in 2025. In addition, as of December 31, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $302.0 million. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses and negative cash flows in the foreseeable future. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $54.7 million as of December 31, 2025. The Company currently expects that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital requirements for more than 12 months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued. However, the Company does not anticipate that its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of December 31, 2025 will be sufficient to fund any of its product candidates through regulatory approval, and it will need to raise substantial additional capital to complete the development and commercialization of its product candidates, if approved. Rallybio may satisfy its future cash needs through the sale of equity securities, debt financings, corporate collaborations or license agreements, working capital lines of credit, grant funding, interest income earned on invested cash balances or a combination of one or more of these sources.

| Asset Acquisitions | Asset Acquisitions The Company measures and recognizes asset acquisitions that are not deemed to be business combinations based on the cost to acquire the assets, which includes transaction costs. In an asset acquisition, the cost allocated to acquire in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) with no alternative future use is charged to research and development expense at the acquisition date. See Note 3, “Collaboration and License Agreements” for additional details. |

| Variable Interest Entity | Variable Interest Entity (“REV-I”), defined in Note 9, and concluded that it represented a VIE and the Company was not deemed the primary beneficiary. If the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary in a VIE, the Company accounts for the investment or other variable interests in a VIE in accordance with the applicable GAAP.

| Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities available-for-sale available-for-sale Unrealized gains and losses on our marketable debt securities that are deemed temporary are included in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. If any adjustment to fair value reflects a significant decline in the value of the security, we evaluate the extent to which the decline is determined to be other-than-temporary and would mark the security to market through a charge to our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Credit losses are identified when we do not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the amortized cost basis of a security. In the event of a credit loss, only the amount associated with the credit loss is recognized in operating results, with the amount of loss relating to other factors recorded in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss). |

Maintenance and repairs which do not extend the lives of the assets are charged directly to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposal, cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized as a component of income or loss in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

| Leases | Leases non-lease components, (ii) determine the consideration in the contract, (iii) determine whether the lease is an operating or financing lease; and iv) recognize lease right-of-use We have elected to combine lease components with
non-lease components on our office real estate asset class. Fixed, or in substance fixed, lease payments on operating leases are recognized over the expected term of the lease on a straight-line basis. Variable lease expenses that are not considered fixed, or in substance fixed, are recognized as incurred. Fixed and variable lease expense on operating leases is recognized within operating expenses within our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Some leases include options to extend or terminate the lease and the Company includes these options in the recognition of the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. We have elected the short-term lease exemption and, therefore, do not recognize a ROU asset or corresponding liability for lease arrangements with an original term of 12 months or less. |

| Income Taxes | Income Taxes Accounting for Income Taxes tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating loss carry forwards, all calculated using presently enacted tax rates for the years and jurisdictions in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes. The Company evaluates whether deferred tax assets are more likely than not of being realized in determining whether a valuation allowance is necessary. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, tax-planning strategies, taxable income in prior carryback years if permitted under tax law, and the results from prior years. If the Company determines it is more likely than not, that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized a valuation allowance is recorded with a charge to income tax expense. Alternatively, if the Company determines that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset previously not meeting the more likely than not threshold will be realized, the Company reduces its valuation allowance and recognizes a benefit in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that deferred taxes will not be realized and as a result recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and has elected to include all subsidiaries owned more than 80%. The Company recognizes and measure uncertain tax benefits in accordance with ASC 740 based on a
two-step process in which (1) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position, and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than fifty percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in income tax expense. |

| Stock Warrants | Stock Warrants Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity Derivatives and Hedging paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and remeasured each balance sheet date thereafter. |
|||||||||||||||||||
| Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation Compensation—Stock Compensation The Company estimates the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) for stock option grants. The fair value of the Company’s common stock is used to determine the fair value of restricted stock awards. Black-Scholes requires inputs based on certain subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility, the expected term of the award, the risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. Due to the lack of a public market for the Company’s common stock and lack of company-specific historical and implied volatility data, the Company has based its computation of expected volatility on the historical volatility of a representative group of public companies with similar characteristics to the Company and in 2024, the Company began to include its historical volatility rate in the computation. The historical volatility is calculated based on a period of time corresponding with expected term assumption. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate the expected term for options granted where the expected term equals the arithmetic average of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the options due to its lack of sufficient historical data. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity date corresponding with the expected term of the associated award. The expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid dividends and has no current plans to pay any dividends on its common stock. |

| Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurement Level 1—Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable, such as quoted market prices, interest rates and yield curves. Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Level 3 inputs include management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). To the extent the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair values requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

| Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share | Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of our common stock requiring little consideration upon exercise. Unvested restricted common shares as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are not considered participating securities and as such are excluded from the weighted-average number of shares used for calculating basic and diluted net loss per share. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effects of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities include restricted common shares and stock options. The Company has generated a net loss for all periods presented, therefore diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share since the inclusion of potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive. |

| Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Revenue from Contracts with Customers The Company evaluates the promised goods or services in these agreements to determine which ones represent distinct performance obligations. These agreements may include the following types of promised goods or services: (i) grants of licenses and related transfer of know-how, (ii) performance of research and development services, and (iii) participation on joint research and/or development committees. They also may include options to obtain further research and development services and licenses to the Company’s intellectual property. The payment terms of these agreements may include nonrefundable upfront fees, payments based upon the achievement of certain milestones, and additional payments based on product sales derived from the collaboration. The Company exercises judgment in assessing those promised goods and services that are distinct and thus representative of performance obligations. To the extent the Company identifies multiple performance obligations in a contract or group of contracts signed together, the Company must develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the estimated standalone selling price for each performance obligation in order to allocate the transaction price among the identified performance obligations. The transaction is allocated on a relative standalone selling price basis. Prior to recognizing revenue, the Company makes estimates of the transaction price, including variable consideration that is subject to a constraint. Amounts of variable consideration are included in the transaction price to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. These estimates are reassessed at each reporting period as required. The Company then recognizes revenue in the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligations when or as the performance obligations are satisfied. For performance obligations satisfied over time, the Company estimates the efforts needed to complete the performance obligations and recognizes revenue over the satisfaction of the performance obligations. |
