NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization
Description of Business
Nurix Therapeutics, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 27, 2009, and is headquartered in Brisbane, California. The Company is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of targeted protein degradation medicines, the next frontier in innovative drug design aimed at improving treatment options for patients with cancer and inflammatory diseases. Powered by a fully artificial intelligence (AI)-integrated discovery engine capable of tackling any protein class, and coupled with leading ligase expertise, the Company holds a differentiated position in translating the science of protein degradation into clinical advancements with the aim of establishing degrader-based treatments at the forefront of patient care. The Company’s wholly owned, clinical stage pipeline includes targeted protein degraders of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase, a B-cell signaling protein, and inhibitors of Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene B, an E3 ligase that regulates activation of multiple immune cell types including T cells and NK cells. The Company’s partnered drug discovery pipeline consists of multiple programs under collaboration agreements with Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Gilead), Sanofi S.A. (Sanofi) and Seagen Inc. (now a part of Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer)), within which the Company retains certain options for co-development, co-commercialization and profit sharing in the United States for multiple drug candidates.
Equity Distribution Agreement
In August 2021, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which was amended in February 2023 (the Shelf Registration Statement) and which expired in August 2024 with respect to additional sales of securities. The Shelf Registration Statement, which included a base prospectus, allowed the Company to offer and sell up to $ 450.0 million of the Company’s registered common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, subscription rights and/or units or any combination of securities described in the prospectus in one or more offerings. In addition, in August 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Piper Sandler & Co. (Piper Sandler) pursuant to which, from time to time, the Company could offer and sell through Piper Sandler up to $ 150.0 million of the common stock registered under the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to one or more “at the market” offerings.
The Company was not required to sell any shares at any time during the term of the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company agreed to pay Piper Sandler a commission of 3.0 % of the gross sales price of any shares sold pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement. In June 2022, the Company issued and sold 2,000,000 shares of common stock under the Equity Distribution Agreement at a price of $ 10.00 per share for gross proceeds of $ 20.0 million before deducting offering commissions and expenses paid by the Company.

In June 2024, the Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement). The Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, which includes a base prospectus, allows the Company at any time to offer and sell the Company’s registered common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, subscription rights and/or units or any combination of securities described in the prospectus in one or more offerings. On July 11, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Equity Distribution Agreement (as amended, the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement), pursuant to which, from time to time, the Company could offer and sell through Piper Sandler up to $ 150.0 million of common stock registered under the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to one or more “at the market” offerings.
The Company was not required to sell any shares at any time during the term of the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company agreed to pay Piper Sandler a commission of up to 3.0 % of the gross sales price of any shares sold pursuant to the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. In August 2024, the Company issued and sold 2,145,000 shares of common stock under the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement at a price of $ 20.00 per share for total gross proceeds of $ 42.9 million before deducting offering commissions and expenses paid by the Company. In October 2024, the Company issued and sold 4,803,573 shares of common stock under the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement at various prices ranging from $ 21.50 to $ 25.00 per share for total gross proceeds of $ 107.1 million, before deducting offering commissions and expenses paid by the Company.

On October 31, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Equity Distribution Agreement (as amended, the Second Amended Equity Distribution Agreement), pursuant to which, from time to time, the Company could offer and sell through Piper Sandler up to $ 300.0 million of common stock registered under the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to one or more “at the market” offerings. The Company was not required to sell any shares at any time during the term of the Second Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company agreed to pay Piper Sandler a commission of up to 3.0 % of the gross sales price of any shares sold pursuant to the Second Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. In November 2024, the Company issued and sold 3,634,393 shares of common stock under the Second Amended Equity Distribution Agreement at a price of $ 26.25 per share for total gross proceeds of $ 95.4 million before deducting offering commissions and expenses paid by the Company. In January 2026, the Company issued and sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock under the Second Amended Equity Distribution Agreement at a price of $ 18.25 per share for total gross proceeds of $ 18.3 million before deducting offering commissions and expenses paid by the Company.
On March 6, 2026, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Equity Distribution Agreement (as amended, the Third Amended Equity Distribution Agreement), pursuant to which, from time to time, the Company may offer and sell through Piper Sandler up to $ 413.65 million of common stock, which includes $ 113.65 million in gross proceeds sold under the Second Amended Equity Distribution Agreement, registered under the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to one or more “at the market” offerings. The Company is not required to sell any shares at any time during the term of the Third Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company agreed to pay Piper Sandler a commission of up to 3.0 % of the gross sales price of any shares sold pursuant to the Third Amended Equity Distribution Agreement. As of May 31, 2026, the Company had $ 300.0 million of common stock remaining available for sale under the Third Amended Equity Distribution Agreement.
Registered Direct Offerings
In July 2022, the Company entered into separate securities purchase agreements with certain purchasers to issue and sell pre‑funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,814,920 shares of the Company’s common stock in registered direct offerings (RDOs) at a price of $ 13.939 per pre-funded warrant (the 2022 Pre-Funded Warrants). Net proceeds from the RDOs were $ 94.8 million, after deducting offering expenses of $ 0.2 million. Refer to Note 7 for more information regarding the 2022 Pre-Funded Warrants.
In October 2025, the Company completed an underwritten registered direct offering (the 2025 RDO) and issued 24,485,799 shares of common stock at a price of $ 10.21 per share. Net proceeds from the 2025 RDO were $ 234.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses of $ 15.6 million.
Public Offering
In April 2024, the Company completed a public offering (2024 Public Offering) pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and issued 11,916,667 shares of common stock (including the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase an additional 1,750,000 shares of common stock) at a price to the public of $ 15.00 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,500,100 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $ 14.999 per pre-funded warrant (the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants). Net proceeds from the 2024 Public Offering were approximately $ 188.7 million, after deducting offering commissions and expenses of $ 12.5 million. Refer to Note 7 for more information regarding the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants.
Liquidity and Management Plans
The Company’s operations have historically been financed through the issuance of common stock, redeemable convertible preferred stock and pre-funded warrants and proceeds received under the Company’s collaboration and license agreements. Since inception, the Company has generally incurred significant losses and negative net cash flows from operations. The Company does not expect its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities to be sufficient to fund the completion of its clinical trials through commercialization and will need substantial additional funding to support its continuing operations and pursue its long-term business plan. The Company anticipates incurring additional losses until such time, if ever, that it can generate significant sales of its drug candidates currently in development.

Table of Contents
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of May 31, 2026, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $ 443.5 million and an accumulated deficit of $ 1.2 billion. Management believes that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities are sufficient to continue operating activities for at least 12 months following the issuance date of these condensed financial statements. Future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the timing and extent of spending on research and development and payments the Company may receive under its collaboration agreements with Sanofi, Gilead and Pfizer or future collaboration agreements, if any. There can be no assurance that, in the event the Company requires additional financing, such financing will be available at terms acceptable to the Company if at all. If additional capital is not available, failure to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, raise additional capital and reduce discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives. Management considered whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and evaluated the funds necessary to maintain operations. Based on the Company’s current forecast of future operating results, the Company has concluded that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are sufficient to continue operating activities for at least 12 months following the issuance date of these condensed financial statements.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. The Company’s condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of and for the three and six months ended May 31, 2026 and 2025. The condensed balance sheet as of November 30, 2025, was derived from the audited annual financial statements as of that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. These interim financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the interim financial statements have read or have access to the audited annual financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2025, as filed with the SEC on January 28, 2026. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any future interim period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the useful lives of long-lived assets, the measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals for research and development activities, income taxes and revenue recognition. The Company also makes certain commencement date estimates for its leases, including the incremental borrowing rate, the expected lease term and the fair value of the leased asset. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other relevant assumptions that are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Refer to Note 3 for more information regarding the estimates related to revenue recognition.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company’s marketable securities consist of debt securities issued by highly rated corporate entities, the U.S. federal government or state and local governments. The Company’s exposure to any individual corporate entity is limited by policy. Deposits may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company invests its cash equivalents in highly rated money market funds. During the periods presented, the Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities.

Table of Contents
Other Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other clinical stage biopharmaceutical companies, including, but not limited to, changes in any of the following areas that the Company believes could have a material adverse effect on its future financial position or results of operations: risks related to the successful discovery and development of its drug candidates, ability to raise additional capital, development of new technological innovations by its competitors and delay or inability to obtain drug substance and finished drug product from the Company’s third-party contract manufacturers necessary for the Company’s drug candidates, protection of intellectual property rights, litigation or claims against the Company based on intellectual property rights and regulatory clearance and market acceptance for any of the Company’s product candidates for which the Company receives marketing approval.
Moreover, the Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of global business, political and macroeconomic events and conditions, including increasing financial market volatility and uncertainty, inflation, interest rate fluctuations, uncertainty with respect to the federal budget and debt ceiling and potential government shutdowns related thereto, potential instability in the global banking system, cybersecurity events, the impact of war or military conflict, including regional conflicts around the world, and public health pandemics. The extent to which business, political and macroeconomic factors, including increasing financial market volatility and uncertainty, will impact the Company’s business will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. The extent to which the increasing financial market volatility and uncertainty may directly or indirectly impact the condensed financial statements is highly uncertain and subject to change.
The Company relies on single source manufacturers and suppliers for the supply of its drug candidates. Disruption from these manufacturers or suppliers would have a negative impact on the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily by amending disclosure requirements for the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, and retrospective application is permitted. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its disclosures, but does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
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 is intended to enhance transparency into the nature and function of expenses, primarily through additional disclosures on certain cost and expenses. ASU 2024-03 should be applied on a prospective basis, and retrospective application is permitted. 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 is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06— Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASU 2025-06), which is intended to simplify the capitalization guidance for internal-use software by removing references to project stages and clarifying when capitalization of eligible costs is required. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its disclosures.
Significant Accounting Policies

3. Collaboration Agreements
Gilead
In June 2019, the Company entered into a global strategic collaboration agreement with Gilead (as subsequently amended, the Gilead Agreement) to discover, develop and commercialize a pipeline of targeted protein degradation drugs for patients with cancer and other challenging diseases using the Company’s DEL-AI platform to identify novel agents that utilize E3 ligases to induce degradation of five specified drug targets. In August 2019 and September 2022, the Company and Gilead entered into the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, respectively, to the Gilead Agreement to clarify certain language of the Gilead Agreement. These amendments had no impact on revenue recognition. In February and March 2024, as part of the existing collaboration agreement, Gilead elected to extend the five-year initial research term by two years for certain drug targets (Gilead Research Term Extension). The Gilead Research Term Extension triggered a $ 15.0 million payment that the Company received in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.
Under the Gilead Agreement, Gilead has the option to license drug candidates directed to up to five targets resulting from the collaboration and is responsible for the clinical development and commercialization of drug candidates resulting from the collaboration. The Company retains the option to co-develop and co-promote, under a profit share structure, up to two drug candidates in the United States, provided that the Company may only exercise such option once per licensed product and Gilead retains the right to veto the Company’s option selection for any one drug candidate of its choice. The collaboration excludes the Company’s current internal protein degradation programs for which the Company retains all rights, and also excludes the Company’s future internal programs, provided that the Company has distinguished future programs as excluded from the scope of the collaboration. In March 2023, Gilead exercised the option, which did not represent a material right at contract inception, since it was not offered for free or at a discount, to exclusively license one target (Gilead License Option Exercise), the first development candidate resulting from the Gilead Agreement. Pursuant to the Gilead Agreement, the Company received a license option exercise payment of $ 20.0 million in April 2023 for the Gilead License Option Exercise. The license to the functional intellectual property and all goods and services related to the Gilead License Option Exercise were transferred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.
Over time, Gilead may elect to replace the initial drug targets with other drug targets. For drug targets that are subject to the collaboration, the Company is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to undertake a research program in accordance with a research plan agreed to by the parties and established on a target-by-target basis. The Company has primary responsibility under the Gilead Agreement for performing preclinical research activities (including target validation, drug discovery, identification or synthesis) pursuant to a research plan. Each party will bear its own costs in the conduct of research activities. Gilead will be responsible for any development, commercialization and manufacturing activities, unless the Company exercises its co-development and co-promotion option. For those programs that the Company exercises its option to co-develop and co-promote, the Company and Gilead will split U.S. development costs as well as U.S. profits and losses evenly, and the Company will be eligible to receive royalties on net ex-U.S. sales and reduced milestone payments.
Upon signing the Gilead Agreement, Gilead paid the Company an upfront payment of $ 45.0 million plus $ 3.0 million in additional fees. In addition, from the signing of the Gilead Agreement to May 31, 2026, the Company has received payments of $ 47.0 million for research milestones and additional payments, $ 20.0 million for a license option exercise payment, $ 15.0 million in research term extension fees and $ 5.0 million for a clinical milestone payment. As of May 31, 2026, the Company is eligible to receive up to approximately $ 1.8 billion in total additional payments, including payments of up to $ 508.5 million upon the achievement of specified research and development milestones, up to $ 60.0 million in certain additional fees related to target licensing and reservation and up to $ 1.2 billion upon the achievement of certain sales milestones. The Company also is eligible to receive mid-single digit to low tens percentage tiered royalties on annual net sales from any commercial products directed to the optioned collaboration targets, subject to certain reductions and excluding sales in the United States of any products for which the Company exercises its option to co-develop and co-promote, for which the parties share profits and losses evenly.
Subject to earlier expiration in certain circumstances, the Gilead Agreement expires on a licensed product-by-licensed product and country-by-country basis upon the later of (1) the expiration of the last to expire patent with a valid claim covering the applicable licensed product in the applicable country, (2) the expiration of any regulatory exclusivity for the applicable licensed product in the applicable country or (3) ten years after the first commercial sale of the applicable licensed product in the applicable country covered by the Gilead Agreement, provided that the term for any profit-shared licensed product in the United States will expire upon the expiration or termination of the applicable profit-share term as set forth in an applicable profit-share agreement to be negotiated upon the Company’s exercise of its option to co-develop and co-promote such licensed product.

The Company identified the following promises in the Gilead Agreement: (1) the research licenses, (2) the research services, including selection campaign research services for certain replacement targets, (3) the obligation to share information during the research term and (4) the participation in the joint research committee and joint steering committee. The Company determined that the research licenses, the obligation to share information and the participation in joint committees are not capable of being distinct from the research services due to the specialized nature of the research services to be provided by the Company, and, accordingly, the promises identified were combined as one single performance obligation. The Company also concluded that, at the inception of the Gilead Agreement, Gilead’s options to obtain an exclusive development, manufacturing and commercialization license for each collaboration target, to extend the five-year research term and to perform selection campaign research services for certain replacement targets do not represent material rights and are not considered performance obligations because they do not contain a significant and incremental discount. The Company concluded that Gilead’s target reservation right is not a performance obligation as it does not require any specific action from the Company and it is rather an exclusivity right and an attribute of other performance obligations in the Gilead Agreement, such as the research licenses.
In order to determine the transaction price, the Company evaluated all the payments to be received during the duration of the contract. Certain milestone payments and additional fees were considered variable consideration, which were not included in the transaction price based on the most likely amount method as of May 31, 2026. The Company re-evaluates the transaction price in each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur. The Company determined that the transaction price at the inception of the initial research term consisted of the upfront payment of $ 45.0 million and $ 3.0 million in additional fees. Upon the achievement of research milestones and additional fees related to target reservations, $ 47.0 million in variable consideration was added to the transaction price, and a cumulative effect was recorded as revenue in the period the transaction price increased. The transaction price is recognized as collaboration revenue using the cost-based input method over the estimated initial research term of five years , which represents the estimated timing of completion of the identified deliverables. Additionally, the Company considered the impact of Gilead terminating the Gilead Agreement prior to the completion of the research services during the five-year initial research term and determined that there were significant economic costs to Gilead for doing so, and as such, did not adjust the contract term. The initial research term ended in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024.
The Gilead Research Term Extension, which has a term of two years and did not represent a material right at the inception of the Gilead Agreement because it does not contain a significant and incremental discount, is accounted for as a separate contract commencing in June 2024. The research term extension fee of $ 15.0 million is recognized as collaboration revenue using the cost-based input method over the estimated extended research term of two years , which represents the estimated timing of completion of the identified deliverables. As of May 31, 2026, no milestones have been achieved related to the extended research term.
Using the cost-based input method, which the Company determined most faithfully depicts the transfer of its performance obligation to Gilead, the Company recognizes revenue based on actual costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs as the Company completes its performance obligation under the contract. Costs consist primarily of internal full-time employee (FTE) and third-party contract costs related to the Gilead Agreement. The cumulative effect of revisions to estimated costs to complete the Company’s performance obligation is recorded in the period in which changes are identified and amounts can be reasonably estimated. Total estimated costs are primarily driven by the number of estimated FTEs, which requires significant management judgment.
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Gilead Research Extension of $ 2.1 million and $ 3.6 million, respectively, all of which was included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period. For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, the Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Gilead Research Extension of $ 1.6 million and $ 3.3 million, respectively, all of which was related to the $ 15.0 million research term extension fee received in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. As of May 31, 2026, deferred revenue related to the Gilead Agreement was $ 0.2 million, all of which was current. As of November 30, 2025, deferred revenue related to the Gilead Agreement was $ 3.8 million, all of which was current.
Sanofi
In December 2019, the Company entered into a strategic collaboration with Genzyme Corporation, a subsidiary of Sanofi, which became effective in January 2020 (as subsequently expanded and amended, the Sanofi Agreement), to discover, develop and commercialize a pipeline of targeted protein degradation drugs for patients with challenging diseases in multiple therapeutic areas using the Company’s DEL-AI platform to identify small molecules designed to induce degradation of three specified initial drug targets. In January 2021, as part of the existing Sanofi Agreement, Sanofi paid the Company $ 22.0 million to exercise its option to expand the number of targets in the Sanofi Agreement from three to a total of five targets.

Table of Contents
In January 2021, the Company and Sanofi entered into the First Amendment to the Sanofi Agreement to modify the research term on all targets (the First Sanofi Amendment). In December 2021, the Company and Sanofi entered into the Second Amendment to the Sanofi Agreement to extend the substitution deadline on certain targets. In July 2022, the Company and Sanofi entered into the Third Amendment to the Sanofi Agreement to further extend the substitution deadline on certain targets. The extensions of the substitution deadline had no impact on revenue recognition. Also in July 2022, Sanofi elected to replace certain drug targets, and the substitution extended the research term of those targets by one year to 5.25 years and increased overall forecasted costs, which had an immaterial impact on revenue recognition. In August 2022 and November 2023, the Company and Sanofi entered into the Fourth Amendment and Fifth Amendment, respectively, to the Sanofi Agreement to modify the research plan for certain targets, which had no impact on revenue recognition. In March 2024, the Company and Sanofi entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Sanofi Agreement to extend the research term for the collaboration target STAT6, a key drug target in type 2 inflammation, by two years (the Sixth Sanofi Amendment), which increased overall forecasted costs and had an impact on revenue recognition. In April 2026, the Company and Sanofi entered into the Seventh Amendment to the Sanofi Agreement to enable Sanofi to continue research activities for the collaboration target STAT6 and for an additional collaboration target after the expiration of the original research term, which had no impact on revenue recognition.
Under the Sanofi Agreement, Sanofi has exclusive rights and is responsible for the clinical development, commercialization and manufacture of drug candidates resulting from the collaboration while the Company retains the option to co-develop, co-promote and co-commercialize all drug candidates in the United States directed to up to two targets, one of which must be selected from a list of targets designated at the execution of the Sanofi Agreement or any replacement of such targets, and one of which must be selected from targets identified by Sanofi as part of their January 2021 expansion. The Company’s right to exercise its option to co-develop, co-promote and co-commercialize a given target is dependent on its ability to demonstrate, within a given timeframe, that it has sufficient cash resources and personnel to commercialize the product. The collaboration excludes the Company’s current internal protein degradation programs for which it retains all rights, and also excludes its future internal programs, provided that the Company distinguished future programs as excluded from the scope of the collaboration.
In March 2025, Sanofi exercised its right to exclusively license one target (the First Sanofi License Extension), the first development candidate resulting from the Sanofi Agreement. This right did not represent a material right at contract inception, since it was not offered for free or at a discount. Pursuant to the Sanofi Agreement, the Company received a license extension fee payment of $ 15.0 million in March 2025 for the First Sanofi License Extension. In May 2025, Sanofi exercised its right to exclusively license a second target (the Second Sanofi License Extension, and together with the First Sanofi License Extension, the Sanofi License Extensions), the second development candidate resulting from the Sanofi Agreement. This right also did not represent a material right at contract inception, since it was not offered for free or at a discount. Pursuant to the Sanofi Agreement, the Company received a license extension fee payment of $ 15.0 million in June 2025 for the Second Sanofi License Extension. The license to the functional intellectual property and all goods and services related to both the First Sanofi License Extension and the Second Sanofi License Extension were transferred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.
For drug targets that are subject to the collaboration, the Company has primary responsibility for conducting preclinical research activities (including target validation, drug discovery, identification or synthesis) in accordance with the applicable research plan agreed to by the parties and established on a target-by-target basis. The Company is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to identify relevant target binders and targeted protein degraders in order to identify development candidates. Subject to certain exceptions, each party will bear its own costs in the conduct of such research. Sanofi will be responsible for any development and commercialization activities unless the Company exercises its co-development and co-promotion option. For those programs that the Company exercises its option to co-develop, co-promote and co-commercialize, the Company will be responsible for a portion of the U.S. development costs, and the parties will split U.S. profits and losses evenly, and the Company will be eligible to receive royalties on ex-U.S. net sales and reduced milestone payments on such optioned products.
Upon signing the Sanofi Agreement, Sanofi paid the Company an upfront payment of $ 55.0 million. Subsequently, in January 2021, Sanofi paid the Company an additional $ 22.0 million to exercise its option to expand the number of targets beyond the initial targets included in the collaboration. In addition, from the signing of the Sanofi Agreement to May 31, 2026, the Company has received payments of $ 22.0 million for research milestones and $ 30.0 million for license extension fees. As of May 31, 2026, the Company is eligible to receive up to approximately $ 937.0 million in total additional payments, including payments of up to $ 187.0 million upon the achievement of specified research and development milestones, up to $ 250.0 million upon the achievement of specified regulatory milestones and up to $ 500.0 million upon the achievement of certain sales milestones. The Company is also eligible to receive mid-single digit to low teen percentage tiered royalties on annual net sales of any commercial products that may result from the collaboration, subject to certain reductions and excluding sales in the United States of any products for which the Company exercises its option to co-develop and co-promote, for which the parties share profits and losses evenly.

Subject to earlier expiration in certain circumstances, the Sanofi Agreement expires on a licensed product-by-licensed product or profit-shared licensed product-by-profit-shared licensed product basis and country-by-country basis upon the later of (1) the expiration of the last-to-expire patent with a valid claim covering the applicable licensed product in the applicable country, (2) the expiration of any regulatory exclusivity for the applicable licensed product in the applicable country or (3) ten years after the first commercial sale of the applicable licensed product in the applicable country covered by the Sanofi Agreement.
The Company identified the following promises in the Sanofi Agreement: (1) the research licenses, (2) the research services, (3) the obligation to share information during the research term and (4) the participation of alliance managers in the joint research committee and joint patent committee. The Company determined that the research licenses, the obligation to share information and the participation in the joint committees are not capable of being distinct from the research services due to the specialized nature of the research services to be provided by the Company, and, accordingly, the promises identified were combined as one single performance obligation. The Company also determined that Sanofi’s exclusive right to add up to two additional targets constitutes a material right as it represents a significant and incremental discount that Sanofi would not have received without entering into the Sanofi Agreement. The option to extend the license term does not represent a material right because it does not contain a significant and incremental discount.
In order to determine the transaction price, the Company evaluated all the payments to be received during the duration of the contract. Certain milestone payments and additional fees were considered variable consideration, which were not included in the transaction price based on the most likely amount method as of May 31, 2026. The Company re-evaluates the transaction price in each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur. At the inception of the Sanofi Agreement, the Company determined that the transaction price consisted of the upfront payment of $ 55.0 million for three initial drug targets and $ 22.0 million for two additional targets. Subsequently, upon the achievement of research milestones, $ 20.0 million in variable consideration was added to the transaction price, and a cumulative effect was recorded as revenue in the period the transaction price increased. Revenue is recognized using the cost-based input method over the research term of 4.25 years, the revised research period that was agreed to in January 2021 in the First Sanofi Amendment for certain targets, and 5.25 years, the revised research period due to the target substitutions in July 2022, for certain other targets. The research period was extended as part of the Sixth Sanofi Amendment and a cumulative effect was recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. The research term ended in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.
Using the cost-based input method, which the Company determined most faithfully depicts the transfer of its performance obligation to Sanofi, the Company recognizes revenue based on actual costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs as the Company completes its performance obligation under the contract. Costs consist primarily of internal FTE and third-party contract costs related to the Sanofi Agreement. The cumulative effect of revisions to estimated costs to complete the Company’s performance obligation is recorded in the period in which changes are identified and amounts can be reasonably estimated. Total estimated costs are primarily driven by the number of estimated FTEs, which requires significant management judgment.
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recognized $ 2.0 million of collaboration revenue related to the Sanofi Agreement. For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, the Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Sanofi Agreement of $ 3.4 million and $ 16.1 million, respectively, of which $ 3.1 million and $ 9.1 million, respectively, were included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period, and zero and $ 6.4 million, respectively, were related to activities satisfied in previous periods. There was no deferred revenue related to the Sanofi Agreement as of May 31, 2026, and November 30, 2025, and all performance obligations were satisfied.
Pfizer
In September 2023, the Company entered into a strategic collaboration with Seagen Inc. (now a part of Pfizer Inc.) (the Pfizer Agreement) to develop a suite of targeted protein degraders against multiple targets nominated by Pfizer that are suitable for antibody conjugation. Pfizer will be responsible for conjugating these degraders to antibodies to make degrader antibody conjugates (DACs), a new class of medicines for use in cancer treatment, and advancing these DAC drug candidates through preclinical and clinical development and commercialization.
Under the Pfizer Agreement, Pfizer has the option to obtain exclusive licenses to develop and commercialize certain degraders, while the Company retains an option for U.S. profit sharing and co-promotion on two products arising from the collaboration. The collaboration excludes the Company’s current internal protein degradation programs for which the Company retains all rights, and also excludes the Company’s future internal programs, provided that the Company has distinguished future programs as excluded from the scope of the collaboration.
13
Table of Contents
For the targets nominated by Pfizer under the collaboration, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify, synthesize, characterize and deliver targeted protein degraders that selectively bind to and degrade such targets. Development of licensed degraders, with the exception of licensed products for which the Company exercises its profit-share options, will be at Pfizer’s sole cost and expense. For the profit-share products, the parties will share net profits and net losses and global development costs, and the Company will be eligible to receive royalty and milestone payments on such optioned products.
Under the terms of the Pfizer Agreement, the Company received an upfront payment of $ 60.0 million. In addition, from the signing of the Pfizer Agreement to May 31, 2026, the Company has received payments of $ 15.0 million for research milestones. As of May 31, 2026, the Company is eligible to receive up to approximately $ 3.4 billion in contingent payments across multiple programs, including payments of up to $ 621.0 million upon the achievement of specified research and development milestones, up to $ 19.5 million in certain additional fees related to target licensing and reservation, up to $ 873.0 million upon the achievement of specified regulatory milestones and up to $ 1.8 billion upon the achievement of certain sales milestones. The Company is also eligible for mid-single to low double digit percentage tiered royalties on future sales.
Subject to the exceptions described in the Pfizer Agreement, the Pfizer Agreement expires upon the first to occur of (1) the expiration of the last-to-expire option exercise period under the Pfizer Agreement if no such option has been exercised prior to such expiration and (2) the expiration of the last-to-expire royalty term under the Pfizer Agreement.
The Company identified the following promises in the Pfizer Agreement: (1) the research licenses, (2) the research services, (3) the participation of a gatekeeper and alliance managers and the participation in various joint committees, and (4) the obligation to share information during the research term. The Company determined that the research licenses, the participation in the joint committees and the obligation to share information are not capable of being distinct from the research services, and, accordingly, the identified promises were combined as one single performance obligation. The Company also determined that, at the inception of the Pfizer Agreement, Pfizer’s options to obtain an exclusive development, manufacturing and commercialization license for each collaboration target and to extend the four-year research term do not represent material rights and are not considered performance obligations because they do not contain a significant and incremental discount. Additionally, Pfizer’s target reservation right is not a performance obligation as it is an exclusivity right and an attribute of other performance obligations in the Pfizer Agreement, such as the research licenses, and does not require any specific actions from the Company.
In order to determine the transaction price, the Company evaluated all the payments to be received during the duration of the contract. Milestone payments and additional fees were considered variable consideration, which were not included in the transaction price based on the most likely amount method as of May 31, 2026. The Company re-evaluates the transaction price in each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur. The Company determined that the transaction price at the inception of the Pfizer Agreement consisted of the upfront payment of $ 60.0 million. Subsequently, upon achievement of research milestones, $ 15.0 million in variable consideration was added to the transaction price and a cumulative effect was recorded as revenue in the period the transaction price increased. The transaction price is recognized as collaboration revenue using the cost-based input method over the estimated research term of four years , not to extend beyond six years , which represents the estimated period to complete the identified deliverables. Additionally, the Company considered the impact of Pfizer terminating the Pfizer Agreement prior to the completion of the research services during the initial four-year research term and determined that there were significant economic costs to Pfizer for doing so, and as such, did not adjust the contract term.
Using the cost-based input method, which the Company determined most faithfully depicts the transfer of its performance obligation to Pfizer, the Company recognizes revenue based on actual costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs as the Company completes its performance obligation under the contract. Costs consist primarily of internal FTE and third-party contract costs related to the Pfizer Agreement. The cumulative effect of revisions to estimated costs to complete the Company’s performance obligation is recorded in the period in which changes are identified and amounts can be reasonably estimated. Total estimated costs are primarily driven by the number of estimated FTEs, which requires significant management judgment.
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Pfizer Agreement of $ 5.0 million and $ 9.7 million, respectively, all of which was included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period. For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, the Company recognized collaboration revenue related to the Pfizer Agreement of $ 4.0 million and $ 8.0 million, respectively, all of which was included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period. As of May 31, 2026, deferred revenue related to the Pfizer Agreement was $ 19.1 million, of which $ 13.1 million was current. As of November 30, 2025, deferred revenue related to the Pfizer Agreement was $ 23.8 million, of which $ 13.8 million was current, and included $ 5.0 million in contract assets representing the unbilled amount related to the research milestone achieved in November 2025.

5. Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under U.S. GAAP, the Company discloses and recognizes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1—Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active; and
Level 3—Inputs that are unobservable.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The following tables present the Company’s investments, which consist of cash equivalents and available-for-sale marketable securities, that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of May 31, 2026, and November 30, 2025 (in thousands):

The accrued interest receivable related to the Company’s marketable securities was $ 1.9 million and $ 1.5 million as of May 31, 2026, and November 30, 2025, respectively, and was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed balance sheet.
The Company classifies its money market funds and U.S. treasury securities, which are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets with no valuation adjustment, as Level 1 assets within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company classifies its marketable securities in U.S. government agency securities as Level 2 assets within the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of these marketable securities are estimated by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income- and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trades of and broker/dealer quotes on the same or similar securities, issuer credit spreads, benchmark securities, prepayment/default projections based on historical data and other observable inputs. There were no transfers of financial instruments between valuation levels during the three and six months ended May 31, 2026 and 2025.
As of May 31, 2026, and November 30, 2025, the unrealized losses for available-for-sale securities were non-credit related, and the Company does not intend to sell the securities that were in an unrealized loss position, nor will it be required to sell those securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. As of May 31, 2026, and November 30, 2025, no allowance for credit losses for the Company’s marketable securities was recorded. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not recognize any impairment losses related to marketable securities.

Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and that such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. Legal fees and other costs associated with such actions are expensed as incurred. As of May 31, 2026, the Company was not a party to any material legal proceedings.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company often includes standard indemnification provisions in its arrangements with its partners, suppliers and vendors, among others. Pursuant to these provisions, the Company may be obligated to indemnify such parties for losses or claims suffered or incurred in connection with its service, breach of representations or covenants, intellectual property infringement or other claims made against such parties. These provisions may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification obligations due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. The Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in these condensed financial statements.
In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees 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, officers or employees. No demands have been made upon the Company to provide indemnification under such agreements, and thus, there are no claims that the Company is aware of that could have a material effect on the condensed financial statements. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not specified in the agreements. However, the Company currently has directors’ and officers’ insurance that reduces its exposure and may enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.
Operating Leases
The Company previously leased office and laboratory facilities in San Francisco, California. The related lease agreements expired in accordance with their terms on December 31, 2025. The Company vacated the premises and has no further obligations under these agreements. Accordingly, the right-of-use (ROU) assets and corresponding lease liabilities associated with these facilities were fully amortized and settled during the quarter ended February 28, 2026.
In March 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement for the lease of approximately 46,434 square feet of office space in The Woodlands, Texas. In August 2023, the lease agreement was amended to increase the square footage of the leased premise to 50,094 square feet. The amendment had no impact on the accounting for the lease. The Company has an option to renew for two additional terms of five years each, and the renewal terms have not been included in the lease term used to calculate the ROU asset and lease liability as it is not reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The lease commenced in September 2023 when the underlying assets became available for use.
In February 2025, the Company entered into a lease agreement (the Brisbane Lease) for the lease of approximately 159,959 square feet of office space located at 1600 Sierra Point Parkway, Brisbane, California for a research and development laboratory and office space. The lease commenced in March 2025 when the underlying assets became available for use and the Company recorded a $ 26.7 million ROU asset and lease liability on the condensed balance sheet. A security deposit of $ 2.4 million was also recorded in other assets on the condensed balance sheet. In addition, the lease provides for a tenant improvement allowance of approximately $ 8.0 million, which is expected to be fully utilized.
In May 2025, the Brisbane Lease was amended to include an additional 35,929 square feet of office space located at 1400 Sierra Point Parkway, Brisbane, California. The lease for the additional space commenced in June 2025 when the underlying assets became available for use and the Company recorded a $ 5.8 million ROU asset and lease liability on the condensed balance sheet. A security deposit of $ 0.5 million was also recorded in other assets on the condensed balance sheet. The Brisbane Lease, as amended, will expire on September 30, 2031, unless terminated earlier. Future minimum lease payments under the Brisbane Lease, as amended, total $ 51.6 million, which does not include the payment of additional rent to cover the Company’s share of annual operating and tax expenses and utilities costs for the building.
The Company is required to pay base rent plus its proportionate share of operating expenses, as defined in the applicable lease agreement on all of its leases. Variable lease payments related to operating expenses including utilities, maintenance costs and real estate taxes were $ 0.6 million and $ 1.6 million for the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, respectively, and $ 1.3 million and $ 3.2 million for the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, respectively.

7. Common Stock
The Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the Company to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $ 0.001 par value per share, as of May 31, 2026, and November 30, 2025. Holders of common stock are entitled to dividends when and if declared by the Company’s board of directors, subject to the prior rights of the holders of shares of preferred stock. The holder of each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. As of May 31, 2026, no dividends have been declared.
In July 2022, the Company issued the 2022 Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,814,920 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $ 13.939 per pre-funded warrant. As of May 31, 2026, a total of 6,097,560 of the 2022 Pre-Funded Warrants remained available for exercise.
In April 2024, the Company issued the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,500,100 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $ 14.999 per pre-funded warrant. As of May 31, 2026, a total of 1,480,349 of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants remained available for exercise.
All pre-funded warrants were immediately exercisable at issuance, have an exercise price of $ 0.001 and may be exercised at any time after the date of issuance. A holder of pre-funded warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99 % of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of the pre-funded warrants may increase or decrease this percentage not in excess of 19.99 % by providing at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.
The pre-funded warrants were classified as a component of permanent equity on the Company’s condensed balance sheet as they are freestanding financial instruments that are immediately exercisable, do not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its own shares and permit the holders to receive a fixed number of shares of common stock upon exercise. All of the shares underlying the pre-funded warrants have been included in the weighted-average number of shares of common stock used to calculate net loss per share, basic and diluted, attributable to common stockholders because the shares may be issued for little or no consideration, are fully vested and are exercisable after the original issuance date of the pre-funded warrants.
Common stock reserved for future issuance, on an as-if converted basis consists of the following:

9. Defined Contribution Plan
The Company sponsors a defined-contribution savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 401(k) Plan), which provides for the Company to make discretionary matching or discretionary annual contributions to the 401(k) Plan, for its employees. Substantially all of the Company’s employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan. Employees may contribute a percentage of their annual compensation to the plan, subject to statutory limitations. The Company has made contributions to the 401(k) Plan and recorded contribution expense of $ 0.4 million and $ 1.0 million during the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, respectively, and $ 0.5 million and $ 1.0 million during the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, respectively.
10. Income Taxes
The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $ 271,000 for the three and six months ended May 31, 2026, and an income tax provision of $ 760,000 for the three and six months ended May 31, 2025. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of loss and credit carryforwards and temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon future taxable income, the amount, if any, and timing of which are uncertain. The Company has generated losses since inception and has established a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets as of May 31, 2026 and 2025 due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards and other deferred tax assets.
The Company files income tax returns in the United States and in various states. In January 2019, the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) initiated an examination of the Company’s California tax return for tax years ending in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. During the year ended November 30, 2021, the FTB issued proposed audit assessments related to revenue sourcing and R&D credits. The Company did not agree with the FTB’s assessments and challenged the assessments. In March 2026, the Company and the FTB reached a favorable agreement under which the Company will pay a portion of the proposed assessment. As a result, the Company recognized a $ 271,000 tax benefit. All of the Company’s tax years will remain open for examination by the federal and state authorities for three and four years, respectively, from the date of the utilization of any NOLs.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA includes several significant tax provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Company will no longer be required to capitalize its domestic research and experimental costs under Section 174 of the Internal Revenue Code beginning with the tax year ending November 30, 2026. The enactment of OBBBA did not have a material impact on the condensed financial statements.

13. Segment Information
The Company operates and manages its business as a single reportable and operating segment. The Company is in the business of discovery, development and commercialization of innovative targeted protein degradation medicines aimed at improving treatment options for patients with cancer and inflammatory diseases.
The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews and evaluates net loss to monitor budget versus actual results and to analyze cash flows for purposes of allocating resources and assessing financial performance. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets. All of the Company's long-lived assets are located in the United States and all of the Company's revenue was derived from customers located in the United States.
The Company does not allocate internal costs by product candidate. With respect to internal costs, several departments support multiple product candidate research and development programs, and therefore the costs cannot be allocated to a particular product candidate or development program.
In addition to the significant expense categories included within net loss presented in the Company's statements of operations, disaggregated research and development expenses are as follows (in thousands):
