In connection with entering into the Candid Merger Agreement in the first quarter of 2026, the Company incurred severance charges of approximately $2.3 million of which $1.6 million was included in research and development expenses and $0.7 million was included in general and administrative expenses, with such amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The charges related to the Merger Agreement were cash-based expenditures related primarily to severance and benefit payments. The Company recognized all such charges during the first quarter of 2026, with such amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The accrued severance liability is included in accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026.
On May 2, 2025, the Company approved a workforce reduction to focus resources on the Company’s lead program, RLYB116, and its preclinical development programs.
As part of this effort, the Company eliminated approximately 40% of its positions. As a result of these actions, the Company incurred charges of approximately $1.7 million of which $1.2 million was included in research and development expenses and $0.5 million was included in general and administrative expenses, with such amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
