Barinthus Biotherapeutics plc. 10-Q

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk. Foreign Currency and Currency Translation We are subject to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, specifically with respect to the euro, pound sterling, Swiss franc and Australian dollar. Our reporting currency is the United States dollar, and the functional currency of Barinthus Biotherapeutics plc and its consolidated subsidiaries, Barinthus Biotherapeutics (UK) Limited and Vaccitech Oncology Limited, is the pound sterling. The functional currency of our wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Barinthus Biotherapeutics North America, Inc. is the United States dollar. The functional currency of our wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Barinthus Biotherapeutics Australia Pty, is the Australian dollar. The functional currency of our wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Barinthus Biotherapeutics S.R.L, is the euro. The functional currency of our wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Barinthus Biotherapeutics Switzerland GmbH, is the Swiss franc. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2024 consisted primarily of cash balances held by Barinthus Biotherapeutics (UK) Limited in United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate in effect during the period. Translation adjustments are included in the condensed consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Adjustments that arise from exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local currency are included in operating expenses, net in the condensed consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as incurred. We incur significant operating costs in the U.K. and face exposure to changes in the exchange ratio of the United States dollar and the pound sterling arising from expenses and payables at our U.K. operations that are settled in pound sterling. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an average 10% weakening in the United States dollar relative to the pound sterling would have resulted in a material change to our current and projected expenses denominated in pound sterling. 30 Table of Contents Interest Rate Sensitivity We are not currently exposed significantly to market risk related to changes in interest rates, as we have no significant interest-bearing liabilities. We had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $106.1 million as of September 30, 2024, which were primarily held as account balances with banks in the United Kingdom, United States and Australia. A hypothetical 10% relative change in interest rates during any of the periods presented would not have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
