| Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Significant Accounting Policies Description of Operations Kyntra Bio, Inc. (“Kyntra Bio” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on development of novel therapies in oncology and rare disease. In January 2026, the Company announced its rebranding from “FibroGen, Inc.” to “Kyntra Bio, Inc.,” representing the next step of its transformation to focus on oncology and rare disease assets. On January 8, 2026, the Company’s common stock began trading under the new Nasdaq symbol “KYNB.” The Company is developing FG-3246, a potential first-in-class antibody-drug conjugate (“ADC”) targeting CD46, for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (“mCRPC”) and potentially other cancers. This program also includes the development of FG-3180, an associated CD46-targeted positron emission tomography (“PET”) biomarker and imaging agent. The Company initiated a Phase 2 monotherapy dose optimization study of FG-3246 for the treatment of mCRPC, along with the exploratory sub-study of FG-3180, in the third quarter of 2025. The Company and its collaboration partners developed roxadustat (爱瑞卓®, EVRENZOTM), which is currently approved in Europe, Japan, the People’s Republic of China (“China”), and numerous other countries for the treatment of anemia in chronic kidney disease (“CKD”) patients on dialysis and not on dialysis. On August 29, 2025, the Company closed the sale of its China operations through FibroGen International (Hong Kong) Ltd. (“FibroGen International”) to AstraZeneca Treasury Limited pursuant to the share purchase agreement entered into by the Company and AstraZeneca Treasury Limited on February 20, 2025, as amended (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) for a total consideration of $220.4 million comprised of $85.0 million in enterprise value and $135.4 million in net cash held in China. AstraZeneca AB (“AstraZeneca”) was the Company’s long-time commercialization partner for roxadustat in greater China. This sale included all of its roxadustat assets in China, including FibroGen International’s subsidiary FibroGen (China) Medical Technology Development Co., Ltd (“FibroGen Beijing”) and its 51.1% interest in Beijing Falikang Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“Falikang”). For additional details, refer to Note 3, Discontinued Operations and Divestiture. The Company has retained the rights to roxadustat in the United States of America (“U.S.”), Canada, Mexico, and in all markets not held by AstraZeneca or licensed to Astellas Pharma Inc. (“Astellas”). Astellas is commercializing roxadustat (EVRENZOTM) in Europe and Japan to treat anemia under two development and commercialization license agreements: one for Japan, and one for Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent States, the Middle East and South Africa. The Company continues to advance its development plan for roxadustat in anemia associated with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (“MDS”), a high-value indication with significant unmet medical need. The Company has finalized the Phase 3 trial protocol for roxadustat for the treatment of anemia in patients with lower-risk MDS with high transfusion burden. The Company is continuing with preparations for the Phase 3 trial, while evaluating internal development and potential partnership opportunities for this late-stage program. The Company’s goal is to initiate the Phase 3 trial in the fourth quarter of 2026. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted roxadustat Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of MDS in December 2025. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on March 16, 2026. The interim financial data as of June 30, 2026 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet presented as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the consolidated audited financial statements as of that date. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and its majority-owned subsidiaries, as well as any variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which Kyntra Bio is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company deconsolidates its subsidiary or business in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), as of the date the Company ceased to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation, all assets and liabilities of the former subsidiary are derecognized, any retained investment is recorded at its fair value, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company operates as one reportable segment — the development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat serious unmet medical needs. Discontinued Operations On February 20, 2025, the Company entered into the Share Purchase Agreement with AstraZeneca Treasury Limited pursuant to which the Company and its subsidiary FibroGen China Anemia Holdings, Ltd. agreed to sell all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of to AstraZeneca Treasury Limited (the “Transaction”). This sale included all of the Company’s roxadustat assets in China, including FibroGen International’s subsidiary FibroGen Beijing and its 51.1% interest in Falikang. The Transaction was closed on August 29, 2025 for a total consideration of $220.4 million, subject to certain customary adjustments as set forth in the purchase agreement, comprised of $85.0 million in enterprise value and $135.4 million in net cash held in China. The Company analyzed the quantitative and qualitative factors and concluded that the sale of FibroGen International represents a strategic shift in the Company’s business and qualified as a discontinued operation since December 31, 2024. As a result, the Company determined that FibroGen International met the “discontinued operations” criteria in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements. Accordingly, the operating results related to FibroGen International and the gain (loss) related to the Transaction are classified as discontinued operations, and have been reflected as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. See Note 3, Discontinued Operations and Divestiture, for related disclosures. Unless otherwise noted, discussion in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, relates solely to the Company’s continuing operations. Liquidity and Going Concern The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Based on its current operating plan, the Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund the Company’s planned operating requirements for at least the 12 months following the issuance of the financial statements for June 30, 2026. Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions include valuation and recognition of revenue and deferred revenue, specifically, estimates in variable consideration for drug product sales. On an ongoing basis, management reviews these estimates and assumptions. Changes in facts and circumstances may alter such estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates. In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies used by the Company in its presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those presented in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on March 16, 2026. Net Income (Loss) per Share The Company reported net income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026. The effect of potentially dilutive securities to the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding is taken into consideration and the resulting impact on diluted net income per share were immaterial. Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive and as such, these shares are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The Company reported a loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. Therefore, dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued since their effect is anti-dilutive for these periods. Diluted weighted average shares excluded the following potential common shares related to stock options, service-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based RSUs (“PRSUs”), total shareholder return (“TSR”) awards and shares to be purchased under the 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) for the periods presented as they were anti-dilutive (in thousands):
Risks and Uncertainties The Company’s future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, the results of clinical trials and the achievement of milestones, research developments, actions by regulatory authorities, market acceptance of the Company’s product candidates, competition from other products and larger companies, the liquidity and capital resources of the Company, intellectual property protection for the Company's proprietary technology, strategic relationships, and dependence on key individuals, suppliers, clinical organization, and other third parties.
