NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2024
(unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization and Business
Novavax, Inc. (“Novavax,” and together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a global company that is advancing protein-based vaccines with its Matrix-M TM adjuvant. Novavax offers a differentiated vaccine platform that combines a recombinant protein approach, innovative nanoparticle technology, and patented Matrix-M™ adjuvant to enhance the immune response. In May 2024, Novavax entered into a collaboration and licensing agreement (the “Collaboration and License Agreement” or “ Sanofi CLA”) with Sanofi Pasteur Inc. (“Sanofi”) to co-commercialize Novavax’s current standalone COVID-19 vaccines (“COVID-19 Vaccine”), including Novavax’s Nuvaxovid TM , prototype COVID-19 vaccine (“NVX-CoV2373,” or “prototype vaccine”) and XBB COVID-19 vaccine (“NVX-CoV2601”), and the Company’s updated vaccine for the 2024-2025 vaccination season (“NVX-CoV2705,” or “updated vaccine” and, collectively with NVX-CoV2373 and NVX-CoV2601, the Company’s “COVID-19 Vaccine” or “COVID-19 Program”). This agreement is discussed in greater detail in Note 6 of Novavax’s consolidated financial statements. The partnership with Sanofi allows Novavax to broaden access to its vaccine and adjuvant and refocus on clinical-stage research and development and pipeline expansion beginning in 2025.
Through the end of the 2024-2025 vaccination season, Novavax will continue commercialization of its COVID-19 Vaccine. Local regulatory authorities have also specified nomenclature for the labeling of NVX-CoV2373 and NVX-CoV2601 within their territories (e.g., “Novavax COVID-19 Vaccine, Adjuvanted”, “Novavax COVID-19, Adjuvanted (2023-2024 Formula),” respectively, for the U.S., and “Nuvaxovid™” for ex-US territories) collectively referred to as the Company’s “COVID-19 Program,” or “COVID-19 Vaccine”).
In 2024, the Company has submitted an amendment to the previously granted October 2023 Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“U.S. FDA”), filed for a type II variation of the existing Marketing Authorization (“MA”) with the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) and the United Kingdom's (“U.K.”) Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), and filed for authorization with Health Canada for the Company’s updated vaccine. Currently, the Company significantly depends on its supply agreement with Serum Institute of India Pvt. Ltd. (“SII”) and its subsidiary, Serum Life Sciences Limited (“SLS” and together with SII, “Serum”), for co-formulation, filling, and finishing (other than in Europe) and on its service agreement with PCI Pharma Services for finishing in Europe.
Novavax is advancing development of other vaccine candidates, including its COVID-19-Influenza Combination (“CIC”) and stand-alone influenza vaccine candidates. In addition, Novavax’s adjuvant is included in the University of Oxford and SII’s R21/Matrix-M TM malaria vaccine which has received authorizations in a number of countries with doses administered in 2024. Novavax’s COVID-19 Vaccine and its other vaccine candidates incorporate the Company’s proprietary Matrix-M™ adjuvant to enhance the immune response and stimulate higher levels of functional antibodies and induce a cellular immune response.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The consolidated financial statements are unaudited but include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the periods presented. Although the Company believes that the disclosures in these unaudited consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote information normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted under the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Novavax, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The aggregate foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from the conversion of the transaction currency to functional currency were a $ 1.6 million loss and a $ 6.7 million loss, and a $ 0.2 million loss and $ 16.1 million gain for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are reflected in Other income (expense).
6
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Results for this or any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future interim period or for the entire year. The Company operates in one business segment.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty described below.
In May 2024, the Company entered into the Sanofi CLA and a securities subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Sanofi as a result of which, the Company received a total of $ 568.8 million during the second quarter of 2024 (See Note 6).
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $ 680.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, $ 369.4 million in marketable securities, and working capital of $ 45.6 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized net income of $ 14.8 million, and had net cash flows provided by operating activities of $ 230.7 million.
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern , the Company evaluated its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued. Based on the Company’s current cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities balances and its current cash flow forecast for the one-year going concern look forward period, the Company has concluded that it will have sufficient capital available to fund its operations for the one-year period from the date that these financial statements are issued. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had concluded that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern primarily due to significant uncertainty related to its ability to successfully develop, manufacture, distribute, and market its updated vaccine and execute on certain cost-reduction initiatives as described in Note 16. The Sanofi CLA has alleviated the substantial doubt.
Revenue Recognition, Licensing and Transition Services
The terms of the Company’s third-party licensing agreements may contain multiple performance obligations, including licenses and transition services. The Company evaluates licensing agreements under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) to determine the distinct performance obligations. Prior to recognizing revenue, the Company estimates the transaction price, including variable consideration that is subject to a constraint. Amounts of variable consideration are included in the transaction price to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Total consideration may include nonrefundable upfront license fees, transition service fees, other payments based upon the achievement of specified milestones, and royalty payments based on product sales from licensed products.
7
For multiple performance obligation arrangements, the Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The standalone selling price is generally determined for each performance obligation based on the prices charged to customers, discounted cash flows, or using expected cost-plus margin. For standalone selling prices determined using discounted cash flows, the Company considers discounted, probability-weighted cash flows related to the performance obligation transferred. In developing such estimates, the Company applies judgment in determining the forecasted revenue, expected margins, and the discount rate. These estimates are subjective and require the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows. Revenue related to performance obligations satisfied at a point in time is recognized when the customer obtains control of the promised asset. For performance obligations recognized over time, the Company recognizes revenue using an input method to measure progress by utilizing costs incurred to-date relative to total expected costs. Under this process, the Company considers the costs that have been incurred to-date, as well as projections to completion using various inputs and assumptions, including, but not limited to, progress towards completion, labor costs and level of effort, material and subcontractor costs, and indirect administrative costs. Estimating the total cost at completion of the Company’s performance obligation under a contract is subjective and requires the Company to make assumptions about future activity and cost drivers. Changes in these estimates can occur for a variety of reasons and may impact the timing of revenue recognition on the Company’s contracts. Changes in estimates related to the process are recognized in the period when such changes are made on a cumulative catch-up basis. The Company has not experienced any material adjustments as a result of changes in estimates arising from this process.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Restructuring
The Company recognizes restructuring charges when such costs are incurred. The Company’s restructuring charges consist of employee severance and other termination benefits related to the reduction of its workforce, the consolidation of facilities, and infrastructure and other costs. Termination benefits are expensed on the date the Company notifies the employee, unless the employee must provide future service, in which case the benefits are expensed ratably over the future service period. Ongoing benefits are expensed when restructuring activities are probable and the benefit estimable.
See Note 16 for additional information on the severance and employee benefit costs for terminated employees and impairment of assets in connection with the Company’s Restructuring Plan as defined in Note 16.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Not Yet Adopted
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements (“ASU 2023-06”), to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of topics and align the requirements in the FASB ASC with the SEC's regulations. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-06 to determine its impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The standard enhances transparency in income tax disclosures by requiring, on an annual basis, certain disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The ASU also requires disaggregated disclosure related to pre-tax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) and eliminates certain disclosures related to the balance of an entity’s unrecognized tax benefit and the cumulative amount of certain temporary differences. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

As of June 30, 2024, investments in marketable securities, comprising corporate debt securities, were due to mature within one year. Based on the Company’s policy under the expected credit loss model, including an assessment of unrealized losses on the portfolio as of June 30, 2024, the Company concluded that the unrealized losses for its marketable securities were not attributable to credit and therefore an allowance for credit losses for these securities has not been recorded as of June 30, 2024. Also, based on the scheduled maturities of the investments, the Company was more-likely-than-not to hold these investments for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of the Company’s cost basis. As of June 30, 2024, the Company held no securities that were in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months.

Note 5 – Revenue
The Company's accounts receivable included $ 29.8 million and $ 286.4 million related to amounts that were billed to customers and $ 2.3 million and $ 10.8 million related to amounts which had not yet been billed to customers as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, changes in the Company’s accounts receivables, allowance for credit losses, and deferred revenue balances were as follows (in thousands):
Balance, Beginning of Period Additions Deductions Balance, End of Period
Accounts receivable:
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 $ 304,916 $ 672,326 $ ( 937,462 ) $ 39,780
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 96,210 793,039 ( 486,684 ) 402,565
Allowance for credit losses (1) :
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 $ ( 7,675 ) $ — $ — $ ( 7,675 )
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 ( 13,835 ) — 6,160 ( 7,675 )
Deferred revenue: (2)
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 $ 863,520 $ 365,150 $ ( 28,849 ) $ 1,199,821
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 549,551 414,816 ( 56,957 ) 907,410
(1) There was no allowance for credit losses recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there was a $ 6.2 million reversal of a credit loss allowance due to the collection of a previously recognized allowance for credit losses. To estimate the allowance for credit losses, the Company evaluates the credit risk related to its customers based on historical loss experience, economic conditions, the aging of receivables, and customer-specific risks.
(2) Deductions from Deferred revenue generally related to the recognition of revenue once performance obligations on a contract with a customer are met. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, deductions included a $ 2.2 million reclassification of refundable upfront payments previously included in Deferred revenue to Other current liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, additions included a $ 225.0 million reclassification of refundable upfront payment from Other current liabilities to Deferred revenue related to the settlement with Gavi as discussed below. There were no such reclassifications during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that were unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied), excluding amounts related to sales-based royalties and constrained variable consideration, was approximately $ 2 billion, of which $ 1.2 billion was included in Deferred revenue. Failure to meet regulatory milestones, obtain timely supportive recommendations from governmental advisory committees, or achieve product volume or delivery timing obligations under the Company’s APAs may require the Company to refund portions of upfront and other payments or result in reduced future payments, which could adversely impact the Company’s ability to realize revenue from its unsatisfied performance obligations. The timing to fulfill performance obligations related to APAs will depend on the timing of product manufacturing, receipt of marketing authorizations for additional indications, delivery of doses based on customer demand, and the ability of the customer to request the Company’s updated vaccine under certain of the Company’s APAs.
Under an APA with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance (“Gavi”), entered into in May 2021 (the “Gavi APA”), the Company received upfront payments of $ 700 million from Gavi (the “Advance Payment Amount”) to be applied against purchases of the Company’s prototype vaccine by certain countries participating in the COVAX Facility. As of December 31, 2023, the remaining Gavi Advance Payment Amount was $ 696.4 million. In February 2024, the Company entered into a Termination and Settlement Agreement with Gavi (the “Gavi Settlement Agreement”) terminating the Gavi APA, settling the arbitration proceedings, and releasing both parties of all claims arising from, under, or otherwise in connection with the Gavi APA. On February 22, 2024, the claims and counterclaims were dismissed with prejudice. Pursuant to the Gavi Settlement Agreement, the Company is responsible for payment to Gavi of (i) an initial settlement payment of $ 75 million, which the Company paid in February 2024, and (ii) deferred payments, in equal annual amounts of $ 80 million payable each calendar year through a deferred payment term ending December 31, 2028. The deferred payments are due in variable quarterly installments and total $ 400 million during the deferred payment term. Such deferred payments may be reduced through Gavi’s use of an annual vaccine credit equivalent to the unpaid balance of such deferred payments each year, which may be applied to qualifying sales of any of the Company’s vaccines for supply to certain low-income and lower-middle income countries. The Company has the right to price the vaccines offered to such low-income and lower-middle income countries in its discretion, and, when utilized by Gavi, the Company will credit the actual price per vaccine paid against the applicable credit. The Company intends to price
10
vaccines offered via the tender process, consistent with its shared goal with Gavi to provide equitable access to those countries. Also, pursuant to the Gavi Settlement Agreement, the Company granted Gavi an additional credit of up to $ 225 million that may be applied against qualifying sales of any of the Company’s vaccines for supply to such low-income and lower-middle income countries that exceed the $ 80 million deferred payment amount in any calendar year during the deferred payment term. In total, the Gavi settlement agreement is comprised of $ 700 million of potential consideration, consisting of the $ 75 million initial settlement payment, deferred payments of up to $ 400 million that may be reduced through annual vaccine credits, and the additional credit of up to $ 225 million that may be applied for certain qualifying sales.
The Company recorded the $ 3.6 million difference between the refund liability recorded as of December 31, 2023 of $ 696.4 million and the $ 700 million of total consideration under the arrangement as a reduction to revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the remaining amounts included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet were $ 225 million in non-current Deferred revenue for the additional credit that may be applied against future qualifying sales, $ 90 million in Other current liabilities, and $ 305 million in Other non-current liabilities. In addition, the Company and Gavi entered into a security agreement pursuant to which Novavax granted Gavi a security interest in accounts receivable from SII under the SII R21 Agreement (see Note 6), which will continue for the deferred payment term of the Gavi Settlement Agreement.

Product sales in the U.S. are primarily made through large pharmaceutical wholesale distributors at the wholesale acquisition cost (“WAC”). Product sales in the U.S. are recorded net of gross-to-net deductions. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, product sales in North America includes $ 4.8 million of gross-to-net deductions in excess of the WAC, primarily due to wholesale distributor fees for shipments expected to be returned and adjustments made to estimated returns of prior period product sales, partially offset by updates to estimated product returns. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, product sales for the rest of the world includes a $ 3.6 million reduction to revenue recognized pursuant to the Gavi Settlement Agreement as discussed above.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $ 55.5 million and $ 103.1 million of gross-to-net deductions were included in Accrued expenses, respectively.
The Company has an APA with the Commonwealth of Australia (“Australia”) for the purchase of doses of COVID-19
11
Vaccine (the “Australia APA”). In March 2024, the Company and Australia agreed to cancel the COVID-19 Vaccine doses previously scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter of 2023. As a result of the cancellation, the total contract value was reduced by $ 54.0 million, including $ 6.0 million of deferred revenue related to the cancelled doses that will be applied as a credit towards future deliveries of doses. Australia is not required to purchase updated vaccine doses until the Company receives authorization from Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). The Company does not expect approval in time for product delivery in 2024 which could result in a loss or deferral of approximately $ 240 million of contract value. The Company plans to seek an amendment to the Australia APA which may not be achievable on acceptable terms or at all. As of June 30, 2024, $ 119.1 million was classified as current Deferred revenue and $ 14.7 million was classified as non-current Deferred revenue with respect to the Australia APA in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. If the Company is unable to satisfy its obligations under the Australia APA, $ 92.5 million of deferred revenue may become refundable and approximately $ 225 million of remaining funds under the contract may no longer be available.
The Company has an APA with His Majesty the King in Right of Canada as represented by the Minister of Public Works and Government Services, as successor in interest to Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada, as represented by the Minister of Public Works and Government Services (the “Canadian government”), for the purchase of doses of COVID-19 Vaccine (the “Canada APA”). The Canadian government may terminate the Canada APA, as amended, if the Company fails to receive regulatory approval for its COVID-19 Vaccine using bulk antigen produced at Biologics Manufacturing Centre (“BMC”) Inc. on or before December 31, 2024 . The Company does not anticipate achieving regulatory approval of its COVID-19 Vaccine using bulk antigen produced at BMC on or before December 31, 2024 . Therefore, the Company plans to seek an amendment to the Canada APA to address possible alternatives, which may not be achievable on acceptable terms or at all. As of June 30, 2024, $ 452.1 million was classified as current Deferred revenue and $ 136.1 million was classified as non-current Deferred revenue with respect to the Canadian APA in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. If the Canadian government terminates the Canada APA, $ 28.0 million of the deferred revenue would become refundable and approximately $ 224 million of the contract value related to future deliverables would no longer be available.
In July 2024, the Pharmaceutical Management Agency (“Pharmac”), a New Zealand Crown entity, provided notice of its termination of its APA (the “New Zealand APA”). As of June 30, 2024, $ 31.3 million was classified as current Deferred revenue with respect to such agreement in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. New Zealand has requested a refund of certain advanced payments and the Company is in discussion with Pharmac on both, whether its termination of the New Zealand APA was appropriate under the New Zealand APA, and whether a refund of the advanced payments is appropriate under the New Zealand APA. Ap proximately $ 125 million of the contract value related to future deliverables may no longer be available if the APA is terminated.
Licensing, Royalties, and Other
Licensing, royalties, and other includes Licensing payments, Transition Services revenue, and Technology Transfer revenue from the Company’s Collaboration and License Agreement with Sanofi (“Sanofi CLA”); royalty milestone payments; sales-based royalties; and Matrix-M™ adjuvant sales.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, the Company recognized $ 386.3 million and $ 390.3 million in revenue related to license fees and $ 2.7 million and $ 10.2 million in revenue related to Matrix-M™ adjuvant sales, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $ 6.6 million of Transition Services revenue.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $ 2.2 million and $ 3.2 million in revenue related to Matrix-M™ adjuvant sales. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not recognize revenue related to license fees or milestone payments.
Grants
The Company’s U.S. government agreement consisted of a Project Agreement (the “Project Agreement”) and a Base Agreement with Advanced Technology International, the Consortium Management Firm acting on behalf of the Medical CBRN Defense Consortium in connection with the partnership formerly known as Operation Warp Speed (the Base Agreement together with the Project Agreement the “USG Agreement”). As of December 31, 2023, the Company recognized the full $ 1.8 billion funding in revenue.

Note 6 – Collaboration, License, and Supply Agreements
As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s material collaborations, license and supply agreements were as follows:
Serum
The Company previously granted SII exclusive and non-exclusive licenses for the development, co-formulation, filling and finishing, registration, and commercialization of its prototype vaccine, NVX-CoV2601, its updated vaccine, and its CIC vaccine candidate. SII agreed to purchase the Company's Matrix-M™ adjuvant and the Company granted SII a non-exclusive license to manufacture the antigen drug substance component of the Company’s COVID-19 Vaccine in SII’s licensed territory solely for use in the manufacture of COVID-19 Vaccine. The Company and SII equally split the revenue from SII’s sale of COVID-19 Vaccine in its licensed territory, net of agreed costs. In May 2024, the Company and SLS entered into a supply agreement (the “SLS Supply Agreement”) under which SLS will supply the Company with antigen drug substance and finished COVID-19 Vaccine doses. The SLS Supply Agreement includes the general terms and conditions of supply orders between the Company and SLS. The Company and SLS intend to execute statements of work and firm purchase orders to included specific quantities to be delivered under the SLS Supply Agreement. The Company will supply SLS with all Matrix-M™ adjuvant needed to manufacture finished COVID-19 Vaccine doses. In March 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with SII that granted SII a non-exclusive license for the use of Matrix-M™ adjuvant supplied by the Company to develop, manufacture, and commercialize R21/Matrix-M™ adjuvant (“SII R21 Agreement”), a malaria vaccine created by the Jenner Institute, University of Oxford (“R21/Matrix-M™”). In December 2023, R21/Matrix-M™ received prequalification by the World Health Organization (“WHO”). Under the SII R21 Agreement, SII purchases the Company's Matrix-M™ adjuvant for use in development activities at cost and for commercial purposes at a tiered commercial supply price, and pays a royalty in the single-to low- double-digit range based on vaccine sales for a period of 15 years after the first commercial sale of the vaccine in each country.
Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited
The Company has a collaboration and license agreement with Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”) under which the Company granted Takeda an exclusive license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize the Company’s COVID-19 Vaccine in Japan. Under the agreement, Takeda purchases Matrix-M™ adjuvant from the Company to manufacture doses of COVID-19 Vaccine, and the Company is entitled to receive milestone and sales-based royalty payments from Takeda based on the achievement of certain development and commercial milestones, as well as a portion of net profits from the sale of COVID-19 Vaccine. In September 2021, Takeda finalized an agreement with the Government of Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare ("MHLW") for the purchase of 150 million doses of its prototype vaccine. In February 2023, MHLW canceled the remainder of doses under its agreement with Takeda. As a result, it is uncertain whether the Company will receive future sales-based royalty payments from Takeda under the terms and conditions of their current collaboration and licensing agreement.
Sanofi
In May 2024, the Company entered into the Sanofi CLA under which the Company granted and Sanofi received the following:
i) A co-exclusive license to commercialize the Company’s current stand-alone COVID-19 Vaccine, including the Company’s prototype vaccine and updated vaccines, that address seasonal variants throughout the world (the “COVID-19 Vaccine Products”);
ii) A sole license to develop and commercialize combination products containing a potential combination of the Company’s COVID-19 Vaccine and Sanofi’s seasonal influenza vaccine (“COVID-19 and influenza Combination Products” or “CIC Products”);
iii) A non-exclusive license to develop and commercialize combination products containing both the Company’s COVID-19 Vaccine and one or more non-influenza vaccines (“Other Combination Products” and together with the COVID-19 Vaccine Products, CIC Products, and Other Combination Products, “Licensed COVID-19 Products”); and
iv) A non-exclusive license to develop and commercialize other vaccine products selected by Sanofi that include the Company’s Matrix-M™ adjuvant (as described below, the “Adjuvant Products”).
13
The Company is also responsible for performing services related to the technology transfer of its manufacturing process for the COVID-19 Vaccine Products and Matrix-M™ components to Sanofi. Until the successful completion of such transfer, the Company will supply Sanofi with both COVID-19 Vaccine Products and Matrix-M™ intermediary components for Sanofi’s use and is eligible for reimbursement of such costs from Sanofi. In addition, the Company is responsible for certain research and development and medical affairs services related to the COVID-19 Vaccine.
Under the Sanofi CLA, the Company will continue to commercialize its updated vaccine. Beginning in 2025 and continuing during the term of the Sanofi CLA, Sanofi and the Company will commercialize the COVID-19 Vaccine Products worldwide in accordance with a commercialization plan agreed by the Company and Sanofi, under which the Company will continue to supply its existing APA customers and strategic partners, including Takeda and SII. Upon completion of the existing APAs, the Company and Sanofi will jointly agree on commercialization activities of each party in each jurisdiction.
Pursuant to the Sanofi CLA, the Company received a non-refundable upfront payment of $ 500 million in the second quarter of 2024. In addition, the Company will also be eligible to receive development, technology transfer, launch, and sales milestone payments totaling up to $ 700 million in the aggregate with respect to the COVID-19 Vaccine Products and royalty payments on Sanofi’s sales of such licensed products. Milestone payments are comprised of a payment of $ 175 million upon the approval of the marketing authorization for a COVID-19 Vaccine Product in a pre-filled syringe from the FDA, $ 25 million upon the transfer of such approval to Sanofi, $ 25 million upon the transfer of EMA approval of a COVID-19 Vaccine Product in a pre-filled syringe to Sanofi, $ 50 million upon database lock of an existing Phase 2/3 clinical trial (identifier 2019nCoV-503), $ 75 million upon the completion of the technology transfer of the Company’s manufacturing process for the COVID-19 Vaccine Products to Sanofi, and up to $ 350 million in CIC Product-related development and launch milestones.
The Company is also eligible to receive development, launch, and sales milestone payments of up to $ 200 million for each of the first four Adjuvant Products and $ 210 million for each Adjuvant Product thereafter, and royalty payments on Sanofi’s sales of all such licensed products. In addition, a portion of the technology transfer costs and research and development costs incurred by the Company will be reimbursed by Sanofi in accordance with agreed upon plans and budgets.
The Company assessed whether the Sanofi CLA fell within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements (“ASC 808”) based on whether the arrangement involved joint operating activities and whether both parties have active participation in the arrangement and are exposed to significant risks and rewards. The Company determined that the Sanofi CLA did not fall within the scope of ASC 808, as the Company does not share in the significant financial risks of Sanofi's development or commercialization activities. The Company then analyzed the arrangement pursuant to the provisions of ASC 606 and determined that the arrangement represents a contract with a customer and is therefore within the scope of ASC 606.
The Company identified the following performance obligations in the Sanofi CLA and determined that they were within the scope of ASC 606: delivery of (i) the licenses described above (the COVID-19 Vaccine license, CIC Products license, Other Combination Product license, and Adjuvant Products license) (collectively the “Sanofi CLA Licenses’), (ii) research and development transition services that support further regulatory approval and development of the COVID-19 Vaccine, referred to as the Sanofi Transition Services, and (iii) technology transfer of the existing manufacturing process for the COVID-19 Vaccine Products and Matrix-M™ adjuvant, referred to as the “Sanofi Technology Transfer”.
The Company also evaluated whether certain options outlined in the Sanofi Agreement represented material rights that would give rise to a performance obligation and concluded that none of the options convey a material right to Sanofi and therefore are not considered separate performance obligations within the Sanofi CLA.
The Sanofi CLA Licenses performance obligations are considered functional intellectual property and distinct from other promises under the contract as Sanofi can benefit from the licenses on their own or together with other readily available resources. Also, the Sanofi Transition Services provide a distinct benefit to Sanofi within the context of the contract, separate from the licenses, as the services could be provided by Sanofi or another third party without the Company’s assistance. The Sanofi Technology Transfer obligation is distinct as Sanofi can benefit from the Sanofi CLA Licenses transferred by the Company at the inception of the agreement with other readily available resources. Therefore, each represents a separate performance obligation within the contract with a customer under the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception.
14
The Company determined the initial transaction price at inception of the Sanofi CLA to be $ 620.2 million, consisting of (i) fixed consideration (the $ 500 million upfront nonrefundable fee), (ii) and $ 120.2 million of variable consideration attributed to a $ 50.0 million clinical milestone and $ 70.2 million of estimated cost reimbursement related to Sanofi Transition Services and Sanofi Technology Transfer. Since the clinical milestone allocated to Sanofi Transition Services is entirely within the Company’s control, and the cost reimbursement variable consideration allocated to Sanofi Transition Services and Sanofi Technology Transfer would be recognized as revenue only as the costs are incurred, the Company determined it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue would occur. The Company utilized the expected value method to determine the amount of these payments. The Company excluded certain regulatory and technology transfer milestones from the transaction price that were determined to be inherently uncertain of achievement and are highly susceptible to factors outside of the Company’s control. Sales-based royalties and launch milestones are related to the license of the intellectual property rights and the Company will recognize revenue for these in the period when subsequent sales are made or sale-based milestones are achieved pursuant to the sales-based royalty exception under ASC 606. The Company will re-evaluate the transaction price in each reporting period as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur.
The Company allocated the fixed consideration (i.e., the $ 500 million nonrefundable upfront fee) to the performance obligations in the Sanofi CLA based on each performance obligation’s relative standalone selling price, or SSP, as follows:
• $ 386.3 million for the upfront transfer of the licenses;
• $ 110.2 million for Transition Services; and
• $ 3.5 million for Technology Transfer.
The SSP for the licenses were determined using an approach that considered discounted, probability-weighted cash flows related to the license transferred. In developing such estimates, the Company applied judgment in determining the forecasted revenues, expected margins, and the discount rate. The SSP for the ongoing Transition Services and Technology Transfer were based on estimates of the associated effort and cost of these services, adjusted for a reasonable gross profit margin that would be expected to be realized under similar contracts.
The Company recognized revenue related to the licenses at a point in time upon transfer of the rights and control of the license to Sanofi during the second quarter 2024. The Sanofi Transition Services and Technology Transfer are recognized in revenue over time using an input method to measure progress by utilizing costs incurred to-date relative to total expected costs. Revenue recognized related to Sanofi Transition Services and Technology Transfer for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2024 was $ 6.6 million. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 includes a deferred revenue balance of $ 109.2 million ($ 50.9 million included in Deferred revenue, current portion and $ 58.3 million included in Deferred revenue, non-current portion) related to Transition Services and Technology Transfer.
The Company recognized an asset for $ 35.0 million of direct costs incurred to obtain the Sanofi CLA. These costs are amortized to expense over the expected period of the benefit in a manner that is consistent with the transfer of the related goods and services in the Sanofi CLA. The Company recognized $ 27.1 million of amortization expense related to the asset in Selling, general, and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2024.
In May 2024, the Company also entered into the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the Company sold and issued to Sanofi, in a private placement, 6,880,481 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share at a price of $ 10.00 per share for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $ 68.8 million. The opening price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the sale approximated $ 10.00 per share and therefore all gross proceeds were allocated to stockholders’ deficit.
Bill & Melinda Gates Medical Research Institute
In May 2023, the Company entered into a three-year agreement with the Bill & Melinda Gates Medical Research
15
Institute to provide the Company’s Matrix-M™ adjuvant for use in preclinical vaccine research.
Other Supply Agreements
In March 2024, the Company, FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies UK Limited (“FDBK”), FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies Texas, LLC (“FDBT”) and FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies USA, Inc. (“FDBU” and together with FDBK and FDBT, “Fujifilm”) entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) to resolve disputes regarding amounts that Fujifilm claimed were due under a prior Confidential Settlement Agreement and Release effective September 30, 2022 (the “CSAR”) by and between the Company and Fujifilm.
Under the CSAR, the Company agreed to pay up to $ 185.0 million to Fujifilm in connection with the cancellation of manufacturing activity at FDBT. The final two quarterly installments due to Fujifilm in 2023 under the CSAR, totaling $ 68.6 million, were subject to Fujifilm’s obligation to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate losses associated with the vacant manufacturing capacity caused by the termination of manufacturing activities at FDBT. In October 2023, the Company sent Fujifilm a notice of breach and refused to pay the final two installments based on its contention that Fujifilm had not used commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate losses and should have offset some portion of the final two payments. In October 2023, Fujifilm filed a demand for arbitration with Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) seeking payment of the full amount (the “Fujifilm Arbitration”).
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, in March 2024, the Company paid $ 42.0 million to Fujifilm, the parties agreed to a mutual release of claims arising from, under or otherwise in connection with the CSAR, and Fujifilm agreed to dismiss the Fujifilm Arbitration. This payment is less than amounts previously accrued for and reflected in Research and development expense, and accordingly, the Company recorded a benefit of $ 26.6 million as Research and development expense during the six months ended June 30, 2024 upon the execution of the Settlement Agreement.
The Company continues to assess its manufacturing needs and intends to modify its global manufacturing footprint consistent with its contractual obligations to supply, and anticipated demand for, its COVID-19 Program, and in doing so, recognizes that significant costs may be incurred.

Note 13 – Stock-Based Compensation
Equity Plans
In January 2023, the Company established the 2023 Inducement Plan (the “2023 Inducement Plan”), which provides for the granting of share-based awards to individuals who were not previously employees, or following a bona fide period of non-employment, as an inducement material to such individuals entering into employment with the Company. The Company reserved 1.0 million shares of common stock for grants under the 2023 Inducement Plan. As of June 30, 2024, there were 0.2 million shares available for issuance under the 2023 Inducement Plan.
The 2015 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (“2015 Plan”), was approved at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in June 2015. Under the 2015 Plan, equity awards may be granted to officers, directors, employees, and consultants of and advisors to the Company and any present or future subsidiary.
The 2015 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 27.5 million shares of common stock under equity awards granted under the 2015 Plan. All such shares authorized for issuance under the 2015 Plan have been reserved. The 2015 Plan will expire on April 18, 2034. As of June 30, 2024, there were 9.4 million shares available for issuance under the 2015 Plan.
The Amended and Restated 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (“2005 Plan”) expired in February 2015 and no new awards may be made under such plan, although awards will continue to be outstanding in accordance with their terms.
The 2023 Inducement Plan and the 2015 Plan permit, and the 2005 Plan permitted, the grant of stock options (including incentive stock options), restricted stock, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). In addition, under the 2023 Inducement Plan and the 2015 Plan, unrestricted stock, stock units, and performance awards may be granted. Stock options and SARs generally have a maximum term of ten years and may be or were granted with an exercise price that is no less than 100 % of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the time of grant. Grants of share-based awards are generally subject to vesting over periods ranging from one to four years .

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, there was no stock-based compensation expense capitalized into inventory.
As of June 30, 2024, there was approximately $ 73 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options, SARs, RSUs, and the ESPP. This unrecognized non-cash compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately one year and will be allocated between cost of sales, research and development, and general and administrative expenses accordingly. This estimate does not include the impact of other possible stock-based awards that may be made during future periods.
The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the period and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money stock options and SARs) that would have been received by the holders had all stock option and SAR holders exercised their stock options and SARs on June 30, 2024. This amount is subject to change based on changes to the closing price of the Company's common stock. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options and SARs exercises and vesting of RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was approximately $ 8 million and $ 2 million, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The ESPP was approved at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in June 2013. The ESPP currently authorizes an aggregate of 2.2 million shares of common stock to be purchased, and the aggregate number of shares will continue to increase 5 % on January 1 of each year up to a maximum of 3.5 million shares. The ESPP allows employees to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at each purchase date through payroll deductions of up to a maximum of 15 % of their compensation, at 85 % of the lesser of the market price of the shares at the time of purchase or the market price on the beginning date of an option period (or, if later, the date during the option period when the employee was first eligible to participate). As of June 30, 2024, there were 1.2 million shares available for issuance under the ESPP.
Note 14 – Income Taxes
The Company evaluates the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. Significant pieces of objective evidence evaluated by the Company were the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended June 30, 2024 and that the Company has historically generated pretax losses. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as projections for future growth. On the basis of this evaluation, as of June 30, 2024, the Company continued to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, except to the extent Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) have been used to reduce taxable income. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has $ 2.3 billion of U.S. Federal NOLs carryforward, and all are subject to limitation in accordance with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), which limits allowable NOL deductions to 80% of federal taxable income.
20
For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $ 2.2 million and $( 0.1 ) million of federal, state, and foreign income tax expense (benefit), respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $ 4.5 million and $ 1.0 million of federal, state, and foreign income tax expense, respectively.

Legal Matters
Stockholder Litigation
On November 12, 2021, Sothinathan Sinnathurai filed a purported securities class action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland (the “Maryland Court”) against the Company and certain members of senior management, captioned Sothinathan Sinnathurai v. Novavax, Inc., et al., No. 8:21-cv-02910-TDC (the “Sinnathurai Action”). On January 26, 2022, the Maryland Court entered an order designating David Truong, Nuggehalli Balmukund Nandkumar, and Jeffrey Gabbert as co-lead plaintiffs in the Sinnathurai Action. The co-lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint on March 11, 2022, alleging that the defendants made certain purportedly false and misleading statements concerning the Company’s ability to manufacture prototype vaccine on a commercial scale and to secure the prototype vaccine’s regulatory approval. The amended complaint defines the purported class as those stockholders who purchased the Company’s securities between February 24, 2021 and October 19, 2021. On April 25, 2022, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On December 12, 2022, the Maryland Court issued a ruling granting in part and denying in part defendants’ motion to dismiss. The Maryland Court dismissed all claims against two individual defendants and claims based on certain public statements challenged in the consolidated amended complaint. The Maryland Court denied the motion to dismiss as to the remaining claims and defendants, and directed the Company and other remaining defendants to answer within fourteen days . On December 27, 2022, the Company filed its answer and affirmative defenses. On March 16, 2023, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification and to appoint class representatives and counsel. The Company filed its opposition to the plaintiffs’ motion on September 22, 2023. On December 4, 2023, the parties agreed to a binding settlement in principle (the “Proposed Settlement”) to fully resolve the surviving claims in the Sinnathurai Action. Under the Proposed Settlement’s terms, the Company agreed to pay $ 47 million into a settlement fund, which will be funded by the Company’s directors and officers’ liability insurance and paid to members of a putative settlement class. On January 12, 2024, after the parties negotiated and executed a written agreement governing the Proposed Settlement, plaintiffs filed an unopposed motion for the Proposed Settlement’s preliminary approval. On January 23, 2024, the Maryland Court granted the motion for preliminary approval and, as requested by the parties, preliminarily certified, for the purposes of settlement only, the settlement class. The court also scheduled a settlement hearing to consider final approval of the settlement for May 23, 2024. Ahead of the May 23 settlement hearing, on April 11, 2024, Plaintiffs filed a motion seeking the Maryland Court’s final approval of the settlement. At the May 23 settlement hearing, the Maryland Court granted final approval of the settlement. The Maryland Court closed the Sinnathurai Action on May 24, 2024. Upon the Maryland Court’s final approval, the Company relieved the $ 47 million estimated settlement liability within Accrued expenses and the $ 47 million estimated insurance recovery within Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet.
After the Sinnathurai Action was filed, eight derivative lawsuits were filed: (i) Robert E. Meyer v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. 8:21-cv-02996-TDC (the “Meyer Action”), (ii) Shui Shing Yung v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. 8:21-cv-03248-TDC (the “Yung Action”), (iii) William Kirst, et al. v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. C-15-CV-21-000618 (the “Kirst Action”), (iv) Amy Snyder v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. 8:22-cv-01415-TDC (the “Snyder Action”), (v) Charles R. Blackburn, et al. v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. 1:22-cv-01417-TDC (the “Blackburn Action”), (vi) Diego J. Mesa v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. 2022-0770-NAC (the “Mesa Action”), (vii) Sean Acosta v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. 2022-1133-NAC (the “Acosta Action”), and (viii) Jared Needelman v. Stanley C. Erck, et al., No. C-15-CV-23-001550 (the “Needelman Action”). The Meyer, Yung, Snyder, and Blackburn Actions were filed in the Maryland Court. The Kirst Action was filed in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland, and shortly thereafter removed to the Maryland Court by the defendants. The Needleman Action was also filed in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland. The Mesa and Acosta Actions were filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Delaware Court”). The derivative lawsuits name members of the Company’s board of directors and certain members of senior management as defendants. The Company is deemed a nominal defendant. The plaintiffs assert derivative claims arising out of substantially the same alleged facts and circumstances as the Sinnathurai Action. Collectively, the derivative complaints assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, insider selling, unjust enrichment, violation of federal securities law, abuse of control, waste, and mismanagement. Plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as an award of monetary damages and attorneys’ fees.
21
On February 7, 2022, the Maryland Court entered an order consolidating the Meyer and Yung Actions (the “First Consolidated Derivative Action”). The plaintiffs in the First Consolidated Derivative Action filed their consolidated derivative complaint on April 25, 2022. On May 10, 2022, the Maryland Court entered an order granting the parties’ request to stay all proceedings and deadlines pending the earlier of dismissal or the filing of an answer in the Sinnathurai Action. On June 10, 2022, the Snyder and Blackburn Actions were filed. On October 5, 2022, the Maryland Court entered an order granting a request by the plaintiffs in the First Consolidated Derivative Action and the Snyder and Blackburn Actions to consolidate all three actions and appoint co-lead plaintiffs and co-lead and liaison counsel (the “Second Consolidated Derivative Action”). The co-lead plaintiffs in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action filed a consolidated amended complaint on November 21, 2022. On February 10, 2023, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Second Consolidated Derivative Action. The plaintiffs filed their opposition to the motion to dismiss on April 11, 2023. Defendants filed their reply brief in further support of their motion to dismiss on May 11, 2023. On August 21, 2023, the court entered an order granting in part and denying in part the motion to dismiss. On September 5, 2023, the Company filed an Answer to the consolidated amended complaint. On September 6, 2023, the court entered an order granting the individual defendants an extension of time to file their answer until November 6, 2023. On October 6, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company formed a Special Litigation Committee (“SLC”) with full and exclusive power and authority of the Board to, among other things, investigate, review, and analyze the facts and circumstances surrounding the claims asserted in the pending derivative actions, including the claims that remain following the court’s order on the motion to dismiss in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action. On November 7, 2023, the court entered an order granting the parties’ request to stay the Second Consolidated Derivative Action for up to six months from the date of entry of the order, and, on April 15, 2024, the court entered a further order extending the stay until June 6, 2024. On June 7, 2024, the court entered another order extending the stay until August 5, 2024. This includes staying the deadline for the individual defendants to respond to the consolidated amended complaint. On August 5, 2024, the parties agreed to a further 90-day extension to November 4, 2024, which remains subject to court approval.
The Kirst Action was filed on December 28, 2021, and the defendants immediately removed the case to the Maryland Court. On July 21, 2022, the Maryland Court issued a memorandum opinion and order remanding the Kirst Action to state court. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on December 30, 2022. On January 23, 2023, defendants filed a motion to stay the Kirst action. On February 22, 2023, the parties in the Kirst Action filed for the Court’s approval of a stipulation staying the Kirst Action pending the resolution of defendants’ motion to dismiss in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action. On March 22, 2023, the Court entered the parties’ stipulated stay of the Kirst Action pending resolution of the motion to dismiss in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action.
On August 30, 2022, the Mesa Action was filed. On October 3, 2022, the Delaware Court entered an order granting the parties’ request to stay all proceedings and deadlines in the Mesa Action pending the earlier of dismissal of the Sinnathurai Action or the filing of an answer to the operative complaint in the Sinnathurai Action. On January 9, 2023, following the ruling on the motion to dismiss the Sinnathurai Action, the Delaware Court entered an order granting the Mesa Action parties’ request to set a briefing schedule in connection with a motion to stay by defendants. On February 28, 2023, the court granted the defendants’ motion and stayed the Mesa Action pending the entry of a final, non-appealable judgment in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action. On August 31, 2023, the Mesa plaintiffs filed a motion to lift the stay in the Mesa Action. On October 6, 2023, the Company filed an opposition to plaintiff’s motion to lift the stay. Plaintiff filed his reply on October 17, 2023. On December 27, 2023, the parties filed a letter informing the Court that the Second Consolidated Derivative Action had been stayed for a period of six months and asked the Court to stay further proceedings in the Mesa Action until expiration of that stay.
On December 7, 2022, the Acosta Action was filed. On February 6, 2023, defendants accepted service of the complaint and summons in the Acosta Action. On March 9, 2023, the court entered an order granting the parties’ request to stay the Acosta Action pending the entry of a final, non-appealable judgment in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action. On October 13, 2023, the parties filed, and the Delaware Court entered, a stipulated order providing that (i) if the Delaware Court declines to lift the stay in the Mesa Action, the Acosta Action will also remain stayed, and (ii) if the Delaware Court lifts the stay in the Mesa Action, the stay in the Acosta Action will also be lifted.
On April 17, 2023, the Needelman Action was filed. On July 12, 2023, the parties filed a stipulation and proposed order to stay the Needelman Action pending the Maryland Court’s decision on the motion to dismiss in the Second Consolidated Derivative Action. The court entered that order on July 17, 2023.
22
On November 30, 2023, the court entered an order consolidating the Kirst and Needelman Actions. On December 14, 2023, the parties filed a stipulation (i) extending the plaintiffs’ deadline to file a consolidated complaint until January 29, 2024, and (ii) otherwise staying all other proceedings in the case (including the defendants’ deadline to respond to the consolidated complaint) until February 12, 2024. The stipulation entered by the court instructs the parties to discuss whether the stay should be further extended in light of the then-current status of the SLC’s investigation. On May 3, 2024, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint. On May 14, 2024, the parties filed a stipulation staying the action until June 6, 2024. On July 12, 2024, the court entered an order staying the action until August 5, 2024.
The financial impact of the above derivative claims is not reasonably estimable.
The Company is also involved in various other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. Although the outcomes of these other legal proceedings are inherently difficult to predict, the Company does not expect the resolution of these other legal proceedings to have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
