Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
Senti Biosciences Holdings, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Senti”), is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing next-generation cell and gene therapies engineered with its gene circuit platform technologies for patients living with incurable diseases. Senti’s mission is to create a new generation of smarter therapies that can outsmart complex diseases using novel and unprecedented approaches. Senti has built a synthetic biology platform that enables it to program next-generation cell and gene therapies with gene circuits. These gene circuits, which are created from novel and proprietary combinations of DNA sequences, reprogram cells with biological logic to sense inputs, compute decisions and respond to their cellular environments. The Company is headquartered in South San Francisco, California.
Holding Company Reorganization
On April 24, 2026, Senti Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Former Senti”), implemented a holding company reorganization (the “Reorganization”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 24, 2026, among Former Senti, the Company and Senti Biosciences Merger Sub, Inc. (the “Reorganization Merger Agreement”). Senti Biosciences Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Reorganization Merger Sub”), was a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Senti Holdings, Inc. (“Senti Holdings”), a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Pursuant to the terms of the Reorganization Merger Agreement, Reorganization Merger Sub merged with and into Former Senti, with Former Senti continuing as the surviving corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Senti Holdings, which is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Reorganization Merger”).
Following the Reorganization Merger, the Company became the successor issuer to Former Senti. Shares of the Company’s common stock continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SNTI.”
Liquidity and Going Concern
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to organizing and staffing, business planning, raising capital, and conducting preclinical and clinical studies and has not realized substantial revenues from its planned principal operations. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $ 378.3 million through the merger in 2022, issuances of common stock, redeemable convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, collaboration arrangements, and governmental grants and loans.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 375.5 million and $ 358.6 million , respectively. The Company’s net losses were $ 17.0 million and $ 28.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Substantially all of the Company’s net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with the Company’s research and development programs and from general and administrative costs associated with the Company’s operations. The Company expects to incur substantial operating losses and negative cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future as the Company advances its preclinical activities and clinical trials for its product candidates in development.
In May 2026, Senti Holdings issued $ 10.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes. Senti Holdings received gross cash proceeds of $ 10.0 million and paid a $ 0.3 million fee to the note holder pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 6 ). While this financing improved

(Unaudited)
the Company’s liquidity, the Company concluded that substantial doubt continued to exist and that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents of $ 6.5 million as of June 30, 2026, were not sufficient for the Company to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement and related transactions described in Note 16 , Subsequent Events. In August 2026, in connection with the Merger Agreement, Senti Holdings issued an aggregate principal amount of $ 4.0 million of additional senior secured convertible notes pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and received cash proceeds of approximately $ 3.9 million. Based on the Company’s current operating plan and existing cash and cash equivalents, the Company has determined that it may not be able to maintain current operations starting as early as the fourth quarter of 2026. Additional funds will be necessary to maintain current operations and to continue research and development activities. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon management’s ability to raise capital and ultimately develop profitable operations. While management is devoting substantially all of its efforts to developing the Company’s business and raising capital, there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts will be successful. Moreover, no assurance can be given that management’s actions will result in raising additional financing or profitable operations.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments that the management of the Company believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full fiscal year or for any subsequent interim period. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Senti Biosciences Holdings, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has one business activity and operates in one reportable segment within continuing operations.
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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuation of stock-based awards, the accrual for research and development expenses, the fair value of the convertible notes - related party, and the determination of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors and adjusts those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents that are maintained in checking and money market accounts at one financial institution, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company has not experienced any credit losses in such accounts or investments.
Concentration of Business Risk
The Company is subject to concentrations of business risk arising from its reliance on a limited number of counterparties and arrangements that are critical to its operations. The Company currently depends on GeneFab LLC
7

SENTI BIOSCIENCES, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements— (Continued)
(Unaudited)
(“GeneFab”) as its sole contract manufacturer for the clinical-scale production of its product candidates. As a result, the Company’s development activities and timelines are dependent on GeneFab’s continued ability to perform manufacturing services in accordance with contractual requirements. Any disruption in GeneFab’s operations, financial condition, or ability to perform could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s research and development activities and may require the Company to identify and qualify alternative manufacturing vendors, which could result in increased costs and delays in the Company’s clinical trial timelines.
In addition, the Company has business risk concentrated in its real estate lease arrangements. The Company has operating lease obligations under the Alameda Lease (as defined in Note 3 ), which represents the Company’s most significant lease liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026. The Company has subleased the Alameda Lease to GeneFab. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to mitigate the cash outflows associated with these lease obligations is dependent on GeneFab’s performance under the sublease arrangements. The Company remains obligated to satisfy its lease commitments to the landlord regardless of the performance of its subtenant.
Convertible Notes - Related Party
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, Senti Holdings issued senior secured convertible notes to a related-party investor. Refer to Note 6 . Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes , for the Company’s accounting policy and additional information regarding the convertible notes.
Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the related footnotes are unaudited. These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements, and in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2026 and its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or any other period. The December 31, 2025 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not include all disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the related notes included in the Company’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2026, which provides a more complete discussion of the Company’s accounting policies and certain other information. Except for the accounting policy related to the Company’s convertible notes - related party described in Note 6 . Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes , there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Recent Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosures about significant expense categories, including but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and selling expenses, along with qualitative descriptions of certain other types of expenses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosure, but does not expect this update to have a material

impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements other than additional information that will be provided in the footnote disclosure.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments , which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as induced conversions. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2026 using the prospective transition method. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities , which establishes authoritative guidance in U.S. GAAP about accounting for government grants received by business entities and clarifies the appropriate accounting in an effort to reduce diversity in practice, and increase consistency of application across business entities. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Adoption of this ASU can be applied using a modified prospective approach, a modified retrospective approach, or a retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements , which clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of Topic 270. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can be applied either a prospective or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-11 and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification Improvements , which addresses thirty-three items, representing the changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. Generally, the amendments in this ASU are not intended to result in significant changes for most entities. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The adoption method of this ASU may vary on an issue-by-issue basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-12 and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 3. GeneFab Transaction
On August 7, 2023, the Company entered into a framework agreement (the “GeneFab Framework Agreement”) with GeneFab and Valere Bio, Inc. (“Valere”), a Delaware corporation and the parent company of GeneFab, which is wholly owned by Celadon Partners, LLC (“Celadon Partners”), pursuant to which the Company, subject to the terms and conditions therein, sold, assigned and transferred its rights, title and interest in certain of the assets and contractual rights, including all of the Company’s equipment at the Company’s Alameda facility and certain of the Company’s non-oncology license rights, intellectual property related to the schematics for and design of the Alameda facility.
The original lease for the Alameda facility was entered into between the Company and 1430 South Loop Owner, LLC (the “Landlord”) in 2021 (the “Alameda Lease”). On August 7, 2023, the Company subleased the Alameda facility to GeneFab in connection with the GeneFab Framework Agreement described above (the “GeneFab Alameda Sublease”). On March 17, 2026, both of the Alameda Lease and GeneFab Alameda Sublease were amended as described in Note 5 . Operating Leases .
On August 7, 2023, the Company and GeneFab also entered into a development and manufacturing services agreement (the “DMSA”), pursuant to which GeneFab will provide certain services to the Company using the
9

subleased Alameda facility and acquired equipment. The Company also entered into a transition services agreement with GeneFab whereby certain services are to be provided by each party to the other party during a transition period beginning on August 7, 2023 (the “Transition Services Agreement”). On December 10, 2024, in connection with the private placement described in further detail in Note 7 . Stockholders’ Equity , the Company and GeneFab entered into an amended and restated DMSA (the “2024 Amended and Restated DMSA”).
On June 12, 2024, the Company subleased to GeneFab a portion of the Company’s HQ Lease as defined in Note 5 . Operating Leases , and this sublease is referred to as the “GeneFab HQ Sublease”. On March 9, 2026, the Company signed an agreement to accelerate the end of the GeneFab HQ Sublease (“GeneFab HQ Sublease Amendment”), effective March 31, 2026. Refer to Note 5 . Operating Leases for details of the GeneFab HQ Sublease Amendment.
On March 17, 2026, the Company entered into a letter agreement with GeneFab (the “GeneFab Letter Agreement”) in connection with the lease and sublease amendments described in Note 5 . Operating Leases . The GeneFab Letter Agreement provides for a $ 1.4 million back rent payment from GeneFab that may be satisfied, in whole or in part, through a cash prepayment credit to be applied toward work or services to be performed by GeneFab for the Company under the 2024 Amended and Restated DMSA, that the Company may access such prepayment credit immediately and that any unpaid portion must be paid in immediately available funds by September 1, 2026. The GeneFab Letter Agreement further provides that the Company may access $ 2.0 million as a prepayment credit to be applied toward work or services to be performed by GeneFab for the Company under the 2024 Amended and Restated DMSA beginning September 1, 2026. This prepayment credit represents a portion of the agreed-upon settlement of past-due sublease rent. GeneFab’s failure to perform its obligations with respect to the outstanding rent or the $ 2.0 million prepayment credit constitutes an immediate event of default under the GeneFab Alameda Sublease Amendment (defined in Note 5 ). The GeneFab Letter Agreement terminates automatically once the applicable prepayment credits have been fully applied.
GeneFab prepaid expenses - related party
Under the GeneFab Framework Agreement entered into on August 7, 2023, the total consideration in connection with the transaction was $ 37.8 million, of which $ 18.9 million was received by the Company on August 7, 2023 and such payment was netted against prepayment due to GeneFab for future manufacturing and research activities under the DMSA. The $ 18.9 million was initially recorded in GeneFab prepaid expenses - related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in 2023.
On December 10, 2024, the Company agreed to make an additional advance payment of $ 10.0 million to GeneFab under the 2024 Amended and Restated DMSA, of which $ 6.0 million and $ 4.0 million was paid in December 2024 and January 2025, respectively.
In June 2025, the Company made an additional advance payment of $ 2.5 million to GeneFab for additional work as part of the 2024 Amended and Restated DMSA.
In March 2026, pursuant to the GeneFab Letter Agreement, $ 3.4 million of past-due rent related to the GeneFab Alameda Sublease was converted into a prepayment for future manufacturing and research activities under the 2024 Amended and Restated DMSA. The Company accounted for the GeneFab Letter Agreement as a recognized subsequent event and reflected the $ 3.4 million prepayment in its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025.
In May 2026, the Company made an additional advance payment of $ 5.1 million to GeneFab for additional work as part of the 2024 Amended and Restated DMSA.
As of June 30, 2026, $ 4.9 million of these prepayments were remaining to be amortized against future manufacturing and research activities, which were recorded in GeneFab prepaid expenses - related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On August 7, 2023, GeneFab was granted an option to purchase up to 1,963,344 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $ 10.18670 per share, representing an aggregate exercise price of up to $ 20.0 million (the “GeneFab Option”). The Company determined that the GeneFab Option was a derivative because certain provisions of the instrument precluded equity classification under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Accordingly, the GeneFab Option was initially recognized as a liability at its fair value of $ 9.6 million on August 7, 2023 and was subsequently remeasured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
In April 2026, in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement described in Note 6 , Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes , the Company and Celadon entered into a Termination and Release Agreement pursuant to which the GeneFab Option was terminated. Accordingly, no liability related to the GeneFab Option remained outstanding as of June 30, 2026.
Consolidation and Related Party
The Company determined that GeneFab is a variable interest entity since its total equity at risk is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company performs a qualitative analysis at each reporting date to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of GeneFab. Based on this assessment, the Company has determined that it does not have the power to direct the activities of GeneFab that most significantly impact GeneFab’s economic performance. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate GeneFab. There were no material changes to the Company’s involvement with GeneFab during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 that would have resulted in a change to this conclusion.
GeneFab is a related party and the Company reports transactions with GeneFab under ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850”). Refer to Note 13 . Related Parties for GeneFab related party considerations.

CIRM Grant
On August 3, 2024, the Company executed an agreement with California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (“CIRM”) for a total grant award of $ 8.0 million (“CIRM Grant”) in support of the research project related to the ongoing clinical development of SENTI-202. The award is payable to the Company upon achievement of milestones that are primarily based on patient enrollment in the Company’s SENTI-202 clinical trial. Under the terms of the CIRM Grant, the Company is obligated to co-fund up to $ 4.8 million and is required to provide CIRM timely progress and financial update reports.
Under the terms of the CIRM Grant, the Company is obligated to pay royalties and licensing fees based on 0.1 % of net commercial revenue of CIRM-funded product candidates or CIRM-funded technology for every $ 1.0 million of CIRM funding received. These payments would commence upon the first commercial sale of an applicable product and continue for either 10 years from such first commercial sale or until the total royalties paid equal nine times the original CIRM Grant, whichever occurs first. If no CIRM-funded products are commercialized, no royalty

or licensing fee payments would be due. As an alternative to revenue sharing, the Company has the option to convert the CIRM Grant to a loan. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has not elected to convert the CIRM Grant to a loan. In the event the Company exercises its right to convert the CIRM Grant to a loan, the Company would be obligated to repay the loan within 10 business days of making such election. Repayment amounts vary dependent upon the phase of clinical development of SENTI-202 at the time of the Company’s election, ranging from 80 % to 100 % plus interest at 10 % plus the 90-day Secured Overnight Financing Rate.
As presented in the table above, the Company received an aggregate of $ 8.0 million from the CIRM Grant as of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Note 5. Operating Leases
Lessee Accounting
Operating Lease - HQ Lease
For the Company’s corporate headquarters located in South San Francisco, California, the original lease was entered into between the Company and Britannia Biotech Gateway Limited Partnership (the “HQ Landlord”) in 2021, and amended in May 2019 and June 2020 (the “HQ Lease”). The HQ Lease has an initial term of eight years expiring in 2027, with an option to renew for an additional eight years unless canceled by either party thereafter.
Operating Lease - Alameda Lease
For the Alameda facility, the original lease was entered into between the Company and 1430 South Loop Owner, LLC (the “Alameda Landlord”) in 2021 and amended in March 2026 as described below (the “Alameda Lease”). The Alameda Lease has an initial term of eleven years expiring in 2032, with an option to renew the lease for up to two additional terms of five years .
On March 17, 2026, the Company and the Alameda Landlord entered into the first amendment to the Alameda Lease (the “Alameda Lease Amendment”). Pursuant to the Alameda Lease Amendment, the Company reduced the leased premises from approximately 92,000 rentable square feet to approximately 46,000 rentable square feet. The Alameda Lease Amendment also reduced the Company’s future base rent obligations for the remaining term of the lease and modified certain cost-sharing arrangements with respect to operating expenses, taxes, and utilities. In connection with the Alameda Lease Amendment, the Alameda Landlord is entitled to draw $ 2.0 million under the Company’s existing letter of credit, and the required letter of credit for the remainder of the lease term was reduced to approximately $ 0.8 million. In May 2026, the Alameda Landlord drew the $ 2.0 million under the Company’s letter of credit.
As of the modification date on March 17, 2026, the Company accounted for the Alameda Lease Amendment as a lease modification under ASC 842. The revised lease payments were discounted using an incremental borrowing rate determined as of the modification date, which reflected the Company’s estimated collateralized borrowing rate over a term consistent with the remaining lease term and incorporated updated market inputs, including treasury rates. The resulting rate was substantially consistent with the rate used for the original Alameda Lease. As a result of the remeasurement, the lease liability decreased by $ 9.9 million. The decrease in the lease liability resulted in a corresponding $ 3.1 million reduction to the right-of-use asset, representing the carrying value of the asset immediately prior to the modification. The remaining amount of $ 6.8 million, together with a $ 0.1 million reduction of certain operating expenses associated with the Alameda Lease Amendment, was recognized as a $ 6.9 million gain in operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Note 6. Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes
Securities Purchase Agreement
On April 27, 2026, the Company, Senti Holdings, and Former Senti entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with one accredited investor (the “Investor”). The Investor is an entity affiliated with Celadon Partners SPV 24 (“Celadon”) and Celadon Partners, which is one of the Company’s related parties and largest stockholder as discussed in Note 13 . Related Parties .
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Senti Holdings agreed to issue and sell, and the Investor agreed to purchase, in a private placement up to $ 40.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes (the “Notes”), subject to the satisfaction of specified closing conditions.
The first tranche consisted of $ 10.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (the “Initial Notes”), which was issued on May 20, 2026. The second tranche may consist of up to $ 30.0 million aggregate principal amount of additional Notes, subject to the Investor’s election and the satisfaction of specified closing conditions under the Securities Purchase Agreement. See Note 16 , Subsequent Events , for additional information with respect to Senti Holdings’ issuance of additional Notes.
Assuming stockholder approval of the Company’s issuance of shares of its common stock underlying the Notes without giving effect to the Exchange Cap (the “Issuance Approval”) is obtained and the Investor immediately exchanges the Initial Notes for shares of the Company’s common stock, Celadon would beneficially own approximately 54.6 % of the Company’s outstanding common stock following the exchange of the $ 10.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes.
Initial Notes
On May 20, 2026, Senti Holdings issued the Initial Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $ 10.0 million and received gross cash proceeds of $ 10.0 million. In connection with the issuance, the Company paid a $ 0.3 million fee to the Investor and incurred $ 0.4 million of third-party issuance costs. The Company recognized the $ 0.7 million of aggregate issuance costs in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

SENTI BIOSCIENCES, INC.

The Initial Notes are guaranteed by the Company and all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, other than Senti Holdings, and are secured by all of the assets of the Company, Senti Holdings and the guarantor subsidiaries, subject to certain customary exceptions.
Initial Notes - Accounting and Fair Value Measurement
The Company elected the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”) for the Initial Notes to simplify the accounting for the instrument by measuring the Initial Notes in their entirety at fair value rather than separately accounting for their embedded features. Accordingly, the Initial Notes were initially recognized at fair value on May 20, 2026 and are subsequently remeasured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company estimated the fair value of the Initial Notes in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), using a probability-weighted expected return method that considered potential conversion, merger and liquidation scenarios. Refer to Note 11 . Fair Value Measurements, for additional information regarding the fair value hierarchy classification, significant unobservable inputs and Level 3 rollforward of the Initial Notes.
Upon issuance on May 20, 2026, the fair value of the Initial Notes was $ 4.3 million. The $ 5.7 million excess of the $ 10.0 million gross cash proceeds received over the initial fair value of the Initial Notes was recognized as a capital contribution from a related party in additional paid-in capital due to the related-party nature of the transaction. As of June 30, 2026, the fair value of the Initial Notes was $ 4.0 million and was recorded as convertible notes - related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized a gain of $ 0.3 million from the change in fair value of the Initial Notes in other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Terms of the Notes
The Notes constitute senior secured indebtedness of Senti Holdings. The Company and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, other than Senti Holdings, guarantee the Notes pursuant to a guarantee in favor of the holders of the Notes (the “Holders”). The Notes are secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all current and future assets of Senti Holdings, as issuer, and the Company and the other guarantor subsidiaries, subject to permitted liens and customary exclusions.
The Notes do not bear interest unless an event of default occurs. The Notes mature on November 23, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”). A Holder may extend the Maturity Date (i) if an event of default, or an event that would result in an event of default with the passage of time or failure to cure, is continuing on the Maturity Date or (ii) through the date that is ten business days after the consummation of a change of control that has been publicly announced or of which the Holder received notice pursuant to the Notes. If the Notes have not previously been converted or exchanged, Senti Holdings is required to pay each Holder on the Maturity Date an amount in cash equal to 200 % of the outstanding principal amount of its Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest.
A Holder may convert its Notes into shares of Senti Holdings’ common stock at an initial conversion price of $ 0.6261 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the Notes. If Celadon, for so long as it continues to hold the Notes, together with the holders of Notes representing at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (the “Required Holders”), delivers a notice to convert at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, or if the Company consummates the potential contingent value rights transaction as contemplated by the Merger Agreement described in Note 16 , Subsequent Events below (the “CVR Transaction”), Senti Holdings has the right to require the conversion of all remaining outstanding Notes.
The Notes may also be exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exchange price of $ 0.6261 per share (the “Exchange Price”), subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the Notes. Following receipt of stockholder approval to issue shares of the Company’s common stock upon exchange of the Notes in excess of the Exchange Cap described below (the “Issuance Approval”), if the Required Holders exchange at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, or if the
17
Table of Contents
SENTI BIOSCIENCES, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements— (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Company consummates the CVR Transaction, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the exchange of all remaining outstanding Notes.
A Holder may elect to have exchanges of its Notes subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of up to 19.99 %. The selected beneficial ownership limitation may be increased or decreased upon 61 days’ prior notice. In addition, prior to receipt of the Issuance Approval, the Company is not obligated to issue shares of its common stock upon exchange of the Notes in excess of 19.99 % of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Exchange Cap”). If the Company fails to timely deliver shares of its common stock upon an exchange, the applicable Holder may have certain buy-in rights under the Notes.
The Conversion Price and Exchange Price are each subject to full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustments upon certain issuances of common stock at a price below the then-effective Conversion Price or Exchange Price. Upon such an issuance, the applicable Conversion Price or Exchange Price will generally be reduced to the price per share of the dilutive issuance.
The Notes contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and liens, restricted payments, asset transfers and changes in the Company’s business.
The Notes also contain customary events of default. Upon certain bankruptcy-related events of default, Senti Holdings is required to redeem the Notes in cash at the applicable redemption price described below. Upon other events of default, the Holders may require Senti Holdings to redeem their Notes in cash at such redemption price. The redemption price is the greater of (i) 200 % of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and (ii) an amount determined based on the principal amount being redeemed, the highest closing sale price of the Company’s common stock during the applicable event-of-default period and the lowest Exchange Price during such period. While an event of default is continuing, interest accrues on the Notes at an annual rate of 12.0 %.
Registration Rights Agreement
On May 20, 2026, in connection with the issuance of the Initial Notes, the Company and Former Senti entered into a registration rights agreement with the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company, as soon as reasonably practicable following an issuance of Notes, but no later than 30 days after such issuance, to file one or more resale registration statements on Form S-3, or another appropriate form if Form S-3 is unavailable, covering the resale by the Investor of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon exchange of the Notes (the “Registrable Shares”). The Company filed such registration statement on Form S-3 on June 18, 2026.
The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each resale registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 75th calendar day following the filing date if the SEC notifies the Company that it will review the registration statement and (ii) the fifth business day after the date on which the Company is notified that the registration statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review. The Company is also required to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each registration statement effective until all Registrable Shares covered by the registration statement have been resold or no Registrable Shares remain.
Voting Agreement
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to seek stockholder approval of (i) the potential CVR Transaction and (ii) the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock upon exchange of the Notes in excess of the Exchange Cap.
On May 20, 2026, in connection with the issuance of the Initial Notes, the Company entered into a voting agreement with certain directors and executive officers of the Company and Celadon (the “Voting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the parties agreed to vote all shares of the Company’s common stock held by

Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share, and to receive dividends and, upon liquidation or dissolution, are entitled to receive all assets available for distribution to stockholders. The holders have no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such shares. Common stock is subordinate to the redeemable convertible preferred stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up, and dissolution of the Company. Through June 30, 2026, no cash dividends have been declared or paid.
Capital Contribution from Related Party
In connection with the issuance of the Initial Notes on May 20, 2026, the Company recognized a $ 5.7 million capital contribution from a related party in additional paid-in capital. Refer to Note 6 , Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes , and Note 13 , Related Parties , for additional information.
2025 ATM Agreement
On March 20, 2025, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the “2025 ATM Agreement”) with Leerink Partners LLC (“Leerink Partners”) with respect to an at-the-market offering program under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, up to a maximum aggregate offering price of $ 17.5 million of its common stock through Leerink Partners as its sales agent. Under the 2025 ATM Agreement, the Company is not obligated to sell any shares, and either party may suspend or terminate the offering of common stock upon notice to the other party and subject to certain conditions. Leerink Partners will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market, to sell shares from time to time based upon the Company’s instructions, including any price, time or size limits specified by the Company. The Company pays Leerink Partners a commission equal to 3.0 % of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold, and has agreed to reimburse certain fees and disbursements and provide Leerink Partners with customary indemnification and contribution rights. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, no shares had been issued under the 2025 ATM Agreement. Through June 30, 2026, the Company sold 4,833,477 shares of common stock under the 2025 ATM Agreement at a weighted average price of $ 2.38 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $ 11.5 million and net proceeds of $ 10.6 million after sales agent commissions and offering costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold 155,840 shares of common stock under the 2025 ATM Agreement at a weighted average price of $ 3.53 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $ 0.6 million and net proceeds of zero after sales agent commissions and offering costs.

Voting powers, designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions.
On December 2, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors in which the Company agreed to sell, in a private placement (the “Offering”), (i) up to 21,157 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, for an aggregate offering price of $ 47.6 million and (ii) accompanying warrants to purchase up to 31,735,500 shares of common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share.

Convertible notes - related party
The fair value of the convertible notes - related party is based on significant unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company estimated the fair value of the convertible notes - related party using a probability-weighted expected return method that considered potential conversion, merger and liquidation scenarios.
Significant inputs used in the valuation as of May 20, 2026 and June 30, 2026 included the probability assigned to each scenario and the estimated value of the contingent value rights expected to be issued in connection with the potential merger transaction. Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair value of the convertible notes - related party. Because the scenario probabilities are interrelated and must total 100%, a change in the probability assigned to one scenario results in a corresponding change in the probabilities assigned to one or more of the other scenarios. The estimated fair value would generally increase with a higher probability assigned to the conversion scenario or a higher estimated CVR value and decrease with a higher probability assigned to the liquidation scenario. The effect of a change in the probability assigned to the merger scenario depends on the corresponding changes in the probabilities assigned to the conversion and liquidation scenarios.
The following table presents the significant unobservable inputs used in estimating the fair value of the Initial Notes upon initial recognition and as of June 30, 2026:
June 30, May 20,
2026 2026
Probability of conversion scenario 10.0 % 15.0 %
Probability of merger scenario 70.0 % 60.0 %
Probability of liquidation scenario 20.0 % 25.0 %
Estimated conversion date 11/23/2026 11/23/2026
Estimated merger date 7/31/2026 7/31/2026
Estimated liquidation date 11/23/2026 11/23/2026
The following table summarizes the changes in the fair value of the Company’s convertible notes - related party:

Note 12. Income Tax
The Company’s income tax provision was zero for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. While the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes in various jurisdictions, due to cumulative losses the Company’s current income tax liability is zero and deferred tax assets generated from the Company’s net operating losses have been subject to a full valuation allowance, as the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the benefit will be realized due to the Company’s losses generated to date.

Following the transaction, the Company is expected to remain a public company with a significantly streamlined operating structure, retaining certain intellectual property, collaborations and early-stage programs focused on its Regulator Dial™ technology platform while the remaining business will merge into the private company. Company stockholders, as well as certain holders of equity awards and warrants, will, upon closing of the transaction, have the right to receive certain contingent value rights that may provide future

cash payments if specified development, regulatory and commercial milestones for SENTI-202 are achieved. The transaction is subject to stockholder approval and other customary closing conditions. See below for more detailed information about the transactions.
Merger Agreement
On July 14, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Celadon Partners SPV 35 Limited (“Parent”), Senti Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Senti Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Midco”), and Senti Biosciences, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Midco (“Opco”). Parent is an affiliate of Celadon Partners, the Company’s largest stockholder and a related party.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Midco, with Midco continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). Upon completion of the Merger, Parent will acquire substantially all of the Company’s existing business and pipeline held through Midco and Opco. The Company is expected to remain a publicly traded company and retain certain intellectual property, contracts and early-stage development programs, including the Company’s program seeking a treatment for Rett Syndrome utilizing the Company’s Regulator Dial™ technology (the “Rett Syndrome program”) and the Company’s platform of Regulator Dial-enabled armored tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte therapies (the “TIL program”). Opco will license or assign to the Company all intellectual property and contracts needed for the Company to advance the Rett Syndrome and TIL programs. The Company is also expected to retain a modest amount of cash to fund initial development activities and ongoing public company costs. The Merger Agreement also contains customary restrictions on the conduct of the Company’s business between signing and closing of the Merger.
The completion of the Merger is subject to (i) the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by holders of shares of the Company’s common stock, other than shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective affiliates (the “Majority of the Minority Approval”), and the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions. See Note 6 . Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes , for additional information regarding the Notes and the Exchange Cap. The Merger Agreement contains customary termination provisions and provides that, under certain specified circumstances, the Company may be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $ 2.5 million.
Contingent Value Rights
In connection with the Merger, the Company’s stockholders and certain holders of the Company’s equity awards and warrants will be entitled to receive contingent value rights (“CVRs”). No cash will be paid to the Company or the holders of the Company’s common stock at the closing of the Merger as consideration for the Merger. The Merger Consideration will consist exclusively of the right to receive contingent cash payments (the “Milestone Payment Amounts”), which right will be distributed to the Company’s stockholders in the form of CVRs. The CVRs will provide their holders with the right to receive a pro rata portion of contingent cash payments of up to $ 60.0 million in the aggregate (the “Aggregate Payment Cap”) upon the achievement of the following specified milestones relating to SENTI-202, each of which must be achieved on or before the seven th anniversary of the closing of the Merger (the “Milestone Expiration Date”): (i) $ 10.0 million upon the filing and acceptance (or the passing of the 60-day review period without rejection) of a Biologics License Application (“BLA”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for SENTI-202; (ii) $ 20.0 million upon receipt of FDA approval of such BLA; and (iii) $ 30.0 million upon the achievement of cumulative worldwide net sales of SENTI-202 in excess of $ 200.0 million. There can be no assurance that any of the milestones will be achieved or that any payments will be made under the CVRs.
The CVRs will not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument, will not have voting or dividend rights, and interest will not accrue on any amounts payable on the CVRs. The CVRs will not represent any equity or ownership

(Unaudited)
interest in Parent, Midco or any of their affiliates. The CVRs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of, except under certain limited circumstances specified in the CVR Agreement.
Immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, each outstanding stock option and restricted stock unit award of the Company, whether vested or unvested, will become fully vested. Each stock option, restricted stock unit and warrant that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the CVR record date will entitle such holder to receive, upon exercise or settlement thereof, a number of CVRs equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock subject to such award, reduced by any applicable withholding taxes, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable award and the CVR Agreement.
Additional Financing
Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, Senti Holdings is not obligated to issue any additional Notes unless the parties executed, within 30 days of the closing of the Initial Notes, definitive documents for a potential transaction pursuant to which, if consummated, an entity affiliated with Celadon Partners would merge with and into Senti Holdings and Senti Holdings would issue a contingent value right to the Company’s stockholders, which may pay out up to an aggregate of $ 60.0 million in cash subject to the achievement of certain regulatory and sales milestones with respect to the Company’s product candidate, SENTI-202. The Merger Agreement, which constitutes such definitive document, was executed on July 14, 2026, more than 30 days after the closing of the Initial Notes on May 20, 2026. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, no later than 21 days from the date of the Merger Agreement (unless Parent and the Company mutually agree in writing to a later date), Parent or an affiliate of Parent was required to fund and purchase additional Notes in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, in an amount equal to $ 6.0 million (the “Additional Funding Amount” and the Notes purchased in connection therewith, the “Additional Notes”), minus the aggregate amount of net proceeds actually received by the Company from sales of common stock pursuant to the Company’s existing at-the-market offering facility with Leerink Partners LLC following the date of the Merger Agreement (“Offset ATM Sales”). As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no Offset ATM Sales.
On August 14, 2026, Senti Holdings received net cash proceeds of $ 3.9 million of the Additional Funding Amount from CPIF II-7 Limited and issued $ 4.0 million of Additional Notes pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement . As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Parent or an affiliate of Parent is obligated to fund and purchase an additional $ 2.0 million of Additional Notes in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
Assuming the Company issues and sells the full $ 6.0 million of the Additional Notes or $ 30.0 million in aggregate principal amount of additional Notes to Parent or an affiliate of Parent, the Issuance Approval is obtained and the Investor immediately exchanges all of its Initial Notes and additional Notes for shares of the Company’s common stock, Celadon and its affiliates would beneficially own approximately 62.3 % or 77.5 %, respectively, of the Company’s outstanding common stock.
The Company evaluated the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein in accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”), and determined that they represent nonrecognized subsequent events. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were not adjusted to reflect the Merger, the related CVRs or the issuance of any additional Notes because completion of the Merger remains subject to stockholder approval and other closing conditions.
