OBSIDIAN THERAPEUTICS SUB, INC. (F/K/A OBSIDIAN THERAPEUTICS, INC.)

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. Nature of the Business and Basis of Presentation

Obsidian Therapeutics Sub, Inc. (formerly known as, Obsidian Therapeutics, Inc.) (the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company harnessing novel protein-regulation technology to develop engineered tumor infiltrating lymphocytes ("TIL") cell therapies for the treatment of patients with solid tumors. The Company's proprietary cytoDRiVE™ platform is highly versatile and allows it to leverage drug responsive domains to control protein function, with its initial focus on TIL cell therapies developed from this platform ("cytoTILs™"). The Company's lead product candidate, OBX-115, is a novel, genetically engineered, autologous TIL cell therapy currently in a Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of advanced melanoma and a Phase 1 clinical trial for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.

The Company was incorporated in 2015 under the laws of the State of Delaware, and its principal offices are in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all its efforts to raising capital, obtaining financing, and incurring research and development costs related to advancing its scientific platform.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Obsidian Therapeutics Securities Corporation. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to early-stage companies in the biotechnology industry, including, but not limited to, development by competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, and ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. Product candidates currently under development will likely require significant additional research and development efforts, including extensive preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval prior to commercialization. These efforts require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel infrastructure, and extensive compliance reporting capabilities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s research and development will be successfully completed, that adequate protection for the Company’s technology will be obtained, that any products developed will obtain necessary government regulatory approval, or that any approved products will be commercially viable. The Company operates in an environment of rapid change in technology and substantial competition from pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. In addition, the Company is dependent upon the services of its employees and consultants. Even if the Company’s product development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will generate significant revenue from product sales.

Liquidity

The Company has a history of operating losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects to continue generating losses as it advances its research and development programs. As of June 30, 2026 the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $34.4 million.

On April 14, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement with Galera Therapeutics, Inc. (“Galera”), pursuant to which both companies were to become wholly owned subsidiaries of a newly formed holding company, Gazelle Parent, Inc. (“Gazelle”). In connection with the merger, Gazelle, the Company and Galera secured commitments for a private investment in public equity financing in Galera with expected gross proceeds of approximately $350.0 million.

On July 31, 2026, immediately prior to the completion of the merger transaction and before the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Concurrent PIPE Financing (as defined below) closed and generated gross proceeds of approximately $350.0 million. The Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities subsequent to the closing of the Concurrent PIPE Financing will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, ("GAAP"). In our opinion, 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. We consider events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the condensed consolidated 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. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2025.

There were no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2026, other than noted below.

Deferred Offering Costs

The Company capitalizes legal, accounting, and other professional fees directly related to the Concurrent PIPE Financing (as defined below) and merger, which are recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are expensed or charged against additional paid‑in capital, as applicable, upon closing of the merger transaction and Concurrent PIPE Financing.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

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 (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires public business entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025‑12, Codification Improvements, which includes amendments to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, Earnings Per Share. The amendments clarify guidance related to the calculation of diluted earnings per share when an entity reports a loss from continuing operations, including the evaluation of the effect of potential common shares. ASU 2025‑12 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, and are required to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025‑12 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

6. Common Stock

The Company’s fourth amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the Company to issue 274,320,131 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had reserved 207,952,902 shares of common stock for the conversion of the Preferred Stock (Note 5), as applicable.

7. Stock-Based Compensation

2016 Equity Incentive Plan

In March 2016, the Company adopted the 2016 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “2016 Plan”), which allows the granting of awards in the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and stock grants, which may include restricted stock, to eligible employees, outside directors and consultants of the Company. The total number of common stock reserved for grant under the 2016 Plan was 48,749,161 shares as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, of which 5,330,455 and 4,475,263 shares remained available for future issuance as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The 2016 Plan expired in March 2026 and no future awards may be granted thereunder. Effective immediately prior to the closing of the merger on August 3, 2026, the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2026 Employee Stock Purchase Plan became effective. Pursuant to the share reserve provisions of the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan, shares underlying outstanding awards granted under the 2016 Plan that are forfeited, canceled, expire unexercised or otherwise terminate without issuance of the underlying shares may become available for future issuance under the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan.


 

Stock Options

The Company estimates the fair value of the stock options issued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant. The key assumptions used to apply this pricing model were as follows:

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, 354,074 performance‑based stock options granted in 2024 were forfeited, with approximately half forfeited due to employee termination and the remaining forfeited due to the related performance condition not being achieved. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2026 the Company granted 1,883,750 performance‑based awards that vest upon the achievement of specified performance goals, with a portion subject to continued service‑based vesting thereafter. As of June 30, 2026, the applicable performance conditions for these awards were not deemed probable, and therefore no compensation expense has been recognized related to these awards.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those options that had exercise prices lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised totaled $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and less than $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026 there was $11.2 million of unrecognized compensation expense, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. Included in this amount is $1.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense relating to the performance-based awards described above.

8. Income Taxes

No income tax expense was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 or 2025. The Company maintained a full valuation allowance through June 30, 2026 due to uncertainty regarding its ability to utilize deferred tax assets.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

401(k) Plan

In January 2017, and as amended in February 2020, the Company established a defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “401(k) Plan”). The 401(k) Plan covers all employees who meet defined minimum age and service requirements and allows participants to defer a portion of their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis. Starting in 2020, the Company makes matching contributions at a rate of 100% of each employee’s contribution up to a maximum employee contribution of 3% of eligible plan compensation. The Company made matching contributions of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Other Contractual Obligations

The Company enters into contracts in the normal course of business with third parties for preclinical research studies, upcoming clinical trials and testing and manufacturing services. These contracts typically do not contain minimum purchase commitments and are generally cancelable by the Company upon written notice. Payments due upon cancellation consist of payments for services provided or expenses incurred, including noncancelable obligations of the service providers, up to the date of cancellation and in the case of certain arrangements may include noncancelable fees.

Indemnification Agreements

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, contract research organizations, business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors and its executive officers that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited. The Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and is not currently aware of any indemnification claims.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is not a party to any material legal proceedings. At each reporting date, the Company evaluates whether a potential loss amount or a potential range of losses is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. The Company expenses as incurred the costs related to such legal proceedings.

Collaboration and License Agreement with University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

In November 2020, the Company entered into a multi-year collaborative research and option agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”) with the Board of Regents (the “Board of Regents”) of The University of Texas System, on behalf of the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (“M.D. Anderson”) designed to expedite the research and development of novel engineered TIL for the treatment of solid tumors. Pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement, as amended, the Company agreed to fund research activities of up to $8.3 million over approximately two years and received the option to obtain a license to certain intellectual property arising from the collaboration. The collaboration focused on developing TIL containing regulated membrane-bound IL15 (“mbIL15”) with the potential to enhance anti-tumor efficacy and reduce tumor burden in patients suffering from different types of solid tumors. The collaboration’s purpose was to accelerate the development of cytoTIL™, including process and analytical development and clinical readiness activities. The Collaboration Agreement expired in 2023 and, prior to such expiration, the Company exercised its option to license certain intellectual property arising from the collaboration and subsequently entered into the resulting license agreement with the Board of Regents on behalf of M.D. Anderson (“M.D. Anderson License Agreement”) in October 2021.

Under the M.D. Anderson License Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay to M.D. Anderson (a) a royalty on net sales of Developed Products and licensed products at a low single digit percentage (b) milestone payments of up to (i) $75.0 million upon the achievement of certain specified clinical and regulatory milestones and (ii) $90.0 million upon the achievement of certain specified sales milestones, which milestones may be payable with respect to multiple products and indications and (c) a share of certain consideration received by


 

the Company from sublicensees under any sublicense agreements with third parties. As of June 30, 2026, no additional milestone payments were considered probable of achievement and, accordingly, no related liability has been recognized.

The M.D. Anderson License Agreement may be terminated by the Board of Regents upon notice for an uncured challenge of the Board of Regents' patents and by mutual agreement of us and the Board of Regents.

10. Leases

The Company has non-cancelable operating lease agreements for office space in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Bedford, Massachusetts, which run through January 2027 and December, 2028, respectively. Future minimum payments under these operating leases as of June 30, 2026 was $3.0 million. Operating lease cost was $0.7 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and $1.4 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

12. Related Party Transactions

The Company entered into individual collaboration and license agreements with Celgene Corporation (“Celgene”) in 2019 and 2020, respectively, and a collaboration agreement with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Vertex”) in 2021. Both Celgene and Vertex purchased the Company’s Preferred Stock in connection with the collaboration agreements. All performance obligations under the collaboration agreements were satisfied in previous reporting periods. Accordingly, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not recognize related party revenue associated with the collaboration agreements. The Celgene collaboration agreement was terminated in October 2025 and the Celgene license agreement was terminated in November 2025. The Vertex collaboration agreement expired in April 2025. No future revenue associated with these collaboration arrangements will be recognized.

13. Segment Information

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the chief operating decision maker and reviews cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as a measure of segment assets. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $34.4 million and $80.5 million, respectively.

(“Parent”) completed the previously announced mergers pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of the Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated April 14, 2026, by and among Parent, the Company, Onyx MergerSub, Inc., Gazelle Merger Subsidiary, Inc. and Galera, such that Parent, who subsequently changed its name to Obsidian Therapeutics, Inc., became the parent of two wholly owned subsidiaries, Obsidian Therapeutics Sub, Inc.

In connection with the closing of the transaction, all outstanding shares of the Legacy Obsidian preferred stock and outstanding warrants were converted into shares of Legacy Obsidian common stock, which were subsequently converted into shares of Parent common stock calculated as defined in the Merger Agreement. Additionally, each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase Legacy Obsidian shares was converted into an option to purchase shares of Parent common stock, with necessary adjustments to the number of shares and exercise price pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, on April 14, 2026, Parent, Legacy Obsidian and Legacy Galera entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain qualified institutional buyers and/or accredited investors (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions therein, the Investors agreed to purchase, and Legacy Galera agreed to issue and sell, immediately prior to the effective time of the Obsidian Merger (the “Obsidian Effective Time”), shares of Legacy Galera’s Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share

On August 3, 2026, Parent and Legacy Obsidian entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”) with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (the “Rights Agent”), pursuant to which stockholders of Legacy Galera of record as of July 31, 2026 received (1) one contingent value right, each a CVR, for each outstanding share of Legacy Galera Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date, representing the right to receive a pro rata portion of 80% of any potential future net proceeds received by Parent or its affiliates from the development, commercialization, licensing, sale or other disposition of the Legacy Product (as defined in the CVR Agreement), or related intellectual property during the five years following the closing and (2) the CVR for each outstanding share of Legacy Galera Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date, representing the right to receive a pro rata portion of 95% of any potential future net proceeds received by Parent or its affiliates from the Supportive-Care Product Divestiture (as defined in the CVR Agreement) during the ten years following the closing.
