LegacyWe TuHURA, our main operating subsidiary, hashave incurred significant losses since inception and expects to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability in the future.
LegacyWe TuHURA isare not profitable and has incurred significant losses in each period since its inception, including net losses of $22.6$30.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, and $29.3$21.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 (which includes the expensing of the entire $16.2 million purchase price for the assets of TuHURA Biopharma, of which $15.0 million was paid in the form of our common stock).2024. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through registered direct offerings, private placements of our common and preferred stockstock, and convertible notes. We have not commercialized any products and hashave never generated any revenue from product sales. We expect these losses to increase as itwe continuescontinue to incur significant research and development and other expenses related to our ongoing operations, seeks regulatory approvals for our product candidates, scales-up manufacturing capabilities and hires additional personnel to support the development of our product candidates and to enhance our operational, financial and information management systems.
Our operations have required substantial amounts of cash since inception. We expect to continue to spend substantial amounts to continue the clinical development of our product candidates, particularly as we advance the development of our product candidates, including our lead product candidate Ifx-Hu2.0 as a potential treatment for patients with melanoma, bladder and cervical cancers.cancers and TBS-2025, our VISTA inhibiting antibody. If we obtain orphan drug designation and marketing approval for Ifx-Hu2.0 or any of our product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution.
As of December 31, 2024,2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $12.7$3.6 million. Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, together with the anticipated$7.0 paymentmillion ofreceived notesin receivablethe first quarter from warrantthe exercises,December 2025 registered direct offering, should be sufficient to fund our operations through lateearly fourththird quarter of 2025.2026. This estimate is based on assumptions that may prove to be materially wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than itwe currently expectsexpect because of circumstances beyond our control. We may require additional capital for the further development and commercialization of our product candidates and may need to raise additional funds sooner if we choose to pursue additional indications or geographies for our product candidates or otherwise expand more rapidly than we presently anticipate. Any additional fundraising efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our product candidates.
We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Our ability to raise additional funding will depend on financial, economic and market conditions and other factors, over which we may have no or limited control. In addition, our ability to obtain future funding when needed through equity financings, debt financings or strategic collaborations may be particularly challenging in light of the uncertainties and circumstances resulting from the ongoing military conflict between Russian and Ukraine, as well as the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, as well as the recent United States and Israeli air-based military campaigns in Iran, and the global impacts of such conflicts. We have no committed source of additional capital and if we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development or commercialization of our product candidates or other research and development initiatives. Our license and collaboration agreements may also be terminated if we are unable to meet the payment obligations under the agreements. We could be required to seek collaborators for our product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable or on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available or relinquish or license on unfavorable terms our rights to our product candidates in markets where we otherwise would seek to pursue development or commercialization ourself.
Our immuno-oncology product candidates are based on novel technologies that target the tumor microenvironment (“TME”), which makes it difficult to predict the results, timing and cost of product candidate development and likelihood of obtaining regulatory approval.
Our TBS-2025, acquired in the acquisition of Kineta in June 2025, target the TME which is highly immunosuppressive. We have not yet succeeded and may not succeed in demonstrating efficacy and safety for any product candidates based on our platform technologies in clinical trials or in obtaining marketing approval thereafter, and use of our platform technologies may not ever result in marketable products.
In addition, the clinical trial requirements of the FDA and other regulatory authorities and the criteria these regulators use to determine the safety and efficacy of a product candidate vary substantially according to the type, complexity, novelty and intended use and market of the potential products. The regulatory approval process for novel product candidates such as ours can be less predictable, more expensive and longer than for other, better known or extensively studied pharmaceutical or other product candidates.
The immuno-oncology industry is also rapidly developing, and our competitors may introduce new technologies improving the immune response to cancer that render our technologies obsolete or less attractive. New technology could emerge at any point in the development cycle of our product candidates.
If our clinical trials with our immune-oncology product TBS-2025 do not show any functionality in the TME, our development plans, financial position, results of operations and prospects may be materially adversely affected.
While we plan to develop product candidates for use in solid tumors, our immuno-oncology product candidate may not show any functionality in the TME. The cellular environment in which solid tumor cells thrive is generally hostile to T cells due to factors such as the presence of immunosuppressive cells, humoral factors and limited access to nutrients. Our product candidates may not be able to access the solid tumor, and even if they do, they may not be able to exert anti- tumor effects in a hostile TME. In addition, the safety profile of our product candidates may differ in a solid tumor setting. As a result, our product candidate may not demonstrate efficacy in solid tumors. If we are unable to make its immuno-oncology product candidate function in tumors, our development plans, financial position, results of operations and prospects may be materially adversely affected.
Our near-term ability to generate product revenue is highly dependent on our ability to obtain regulatory approval of and successfully commercialize one or more of our product candidates. IFx-2.0 and IFx-Hu3.0TBS-2025 are in late and early stages, respectively, of development and will require additional clinical and nonclinical development, regulatory review, and approval in each jurisdiction in which we intend to market the products, substantial investment, access to sufficient commercial manufacturing capacity, and significant marketing efforts before we can generate any revenue from product sales. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of our product candidates, we must conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety, purity, and potency of the product candidates in humans. We cannot be certain that any of our product candidates will be successful in clinical trials and they may not receive regulatory approval even if they are successful in clinical trials.
If we are unable to address one or more of these factors in a timely manner or at all, we could experience significant delays in the successful commercialization of, or an inability to successfully commercialize, our product candidates, which would materially harm our business. If we do not receive regulatory approvals for one or more of our product candidates, we may not be able to continue our operations. Even if we successfully obtains regulatory approvals to manufacture and market our product candidates, our revenues will be dependent, in part, upon the size of the markets in the territories for which it gains regulatory approval and hashave commercial rights. If the markets for patient subsets that we are targeting are not as significant as we estimate, we may not generate significant revenues from sales of such products, if approved.
For example, our IND for our planned Phase 3 trial for IFx-2.0 contemplated by our SPA agreement with the FDA is subject to a partial clinical trial hold as described in a January 2024 letter from the FDA that relates to certain CMC matters for the trial. A partial clinical hold means that the FDA suspends part of the clinical work requested under an IND (i.e., a specific protocol or part of a protocol is not allowed to proceed). The partial hold required us to provide additional CMC information from our contract manufacturers for the Phase 3 trial, complete and qualify a potency assay, and qualify the mixing process for IFx-2.0 at the clinical site prior to initiating the trial. We have reached agreement with FDA on the requirements for lifting the partial clinical hold and believe we will meet the requirements, but there is no assurance that we will be able to complete these requirements on a timely basis, which could delay our expected timetable to complete the trial, or if we are unable to complete these requirements, we will not be able to proceed with the trial.
The FDA standard for regular approval of a biologic generally requires two well-controlled phasePhase 3 studies or one large and robust, well-controlled phasePhase 3 study in the patient population being studied that provides substantial evidence that a biologic is safe and effective for its proposed indication. Phase 3 clinical trials typically involve hundreds of patients, have significant costs, and take years to complete. Product candidates studied for their safety and effectiveness in treating serious or life-threatening illnesses and that provide meaningful therapeutic benefit over existing treatments may be eligible for accelerated approval and may be approved on the basis of adequate and well-controlled clinical trials establishing that the product candidate has an effect on a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit, or on a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than irreversible morbidity or mortality, that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit, taking into account the severity, rarity or prevalence of the condition and the availability or lack of alternative treatments. As a condition of accelerated approval, the FDA may require a sponsor of a drug or biologic receiving accelerated approval to perform post-marketing studies to verify and describe the predicted effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical endpoint, and the drug or biologic may be subject to withdrawal procedures by the FDA that are more accelerated than those available for regular approvals. Recently, we entered into athe SPA agreement with the FDA for a single Phase 3 randomized placebo and injection controlled trial for IFx-2.0,IFx-2.0. whichWe we believe will lead to initiation ofinitiated the Phase 3 studytrial in of the second quarter ofJune 2025. If our efforts to obtain approval for IFx-2.0 or any other product candidate is not successful, then we may be required to conduct additional clinical trials beyond those weit contemplate,contemplates, which would likely result in a longer time period to potential approval and commercialization of such product candidate (if approved) and would likely increase the cost of development of such product candidate, all of which could harm the Company’scompany’s competitive position in the marketplace and shorten the remaining term of applicable patent coverage after product approval.
Any agreements governing our relationships with CROs or other contractors with whom we currently engagesengage or may engage in the future may provide those outside contractors with certain rights to terminate a clinical trial under specified circumstances. If any of our relationships with these third-party CROs terminate, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative CROs or do so on commercially reasonable terms. Switching or adding additional CROs involves additional cost and requires management time and focus. In addition, there is a natural transition period when a new CRO begins work. As a result, delays occur, which can materially impact our ability to meet our desired clinical development timelines. Though we carefully manage our relationships with our CROs, there can be no assurance that we will not encounter similar challenges or delays in the future or that these delays or challenges will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and prospects.
The research, testing, manufacturing, labeling, approval, sale, marketing and distribution of drug products are, and will remain, subject to extensive regulation by the FDA in the United States and by the respective regulatory authorities in other countries where regulations differ. We are not permitted to market our biological product candidates in the United States until we receivesreceive the respective approval of a BLA from the FDA, or in any foreign countries until we receive the requisite approval from the respective regulatory authorities in such countries. The time required to obtain approval, if any, by the FDA, EMA and comparable foreign authorities is unpredictable, but typically takes many years following the commencement of clinical trials, if approval is obtained at all, and depends upon numerous factors, including the substantial discretion of the regulatory authorities and the type, complexity and novelty of the product candidates involved. Regulatory authorities have substantial discretion in the approval process and may refuse to accept any application or may decide that our data is insufficient for approval and require additional nonclinical studies or clinical trials. We have limited experience in planning and conducting the clinical trials required for marketing approvals, and we have and expect to continue to rely on third-party CROs to assist us in this process. Obtaining marketing approval requires the submission of extensive nonclinical and clinical data and supporting information to regulatory authorities for each therapeutic indication to establish the product candidate’s safety and efficacy. Securing marketing approval also requires the submission of information about the product manufacturing process, and in many cases the inspection of manufacturing, processing, and packaging facilities by the regulatory authorities. Our product candidates may not be effective, may be only moderately effective or may prove to have undesirable or unintended side effects, toxicities or other characteristics that may preclude us obtaining marketing approval or prevent or limit commercial use, or there may be deficiencies in cGMP compliance by us or by our CMOs that could result in the candidate not being approved. Moreover, we have not obtained regulatory approval for any drug candidate in any jurisdiction and it is possible that none of our existing drug candidates or any drug candidates we may seek to develop in the future will ever obtain regulatory approval.
We currently have no marketing and sales organization and hashave no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establish marketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be able to generate product revenue.
If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and commercial distribution capabilities for any or all products we develop, it will likely pursue collaborative arrangements regarding the sales and marketing of our products. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to establish or maintain such collaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, that they will have effective sales forces. Any revenue we receive will depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the marketing and sales efforts of such third parties, and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized our product candidates itself.ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist it with the sales and marketing efforts of our product candidates.
If us, our CROs or our CMOs use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law, we may be liable for damages.
Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical and biological materials, by us or third parties, such as CROs and CMOs. Us and such third parties are subject to federal, state, and local laws and regulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling, and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Although we believe that our and such third parties’ procedures for using, handling, storing, and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any such contamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state, or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt its business operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed its resources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and production efforts, which could harm its business, prospects, financial condition, or results of operations.
Future legislative and regulatory proposals may materially impact the ability of the FDA and other regulatory agencies to operate as they have historically operated. We cannot be sure whether additional legislative changes or executive orders will be enacted, or whether any of the FDA’s regulations, guidance or interpretations will be changed, or what the impact of such changes on the agency and its scientific review staff, if any, may be. For example, the next FDA user fee reauthorization package entered stakeholder negotiations in mid-2025, with any agreement to be sent to Congress in early 2027 for purposes of initiating the legislative process. Reauthorization of the prescription drug user fee program would need to be finalized by Congress by the end of September 2027 in order to avoid a disruption in FDA’s review goals for NDAs and other activities supported by user fees assessed against industry.
Disruptions at the FDA and other agencies may also slow the time necessary for new product candidates to be reviewed and/or approved by necessary government agencies, which would adversely affect our business. For example, over the last several years, the U.S. government has shut down several times and certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA and the SEC, have had to furlough critical FDA, SEC and other government employees and stop critical activities. If a prolonged government shutdown occurs, it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA to timely review and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Further, future government shutdowns could impact our ability to access the public markets and obtain necessary capital in order to properly capitalize and continue our operations. Future government shutdowns or slowdowns could also result in delays in our interactions with the SEC and other government agencies, which could impact our ability to access the public markets and obtain necessary capital in order to properly capitalize and continue its operations.
Even if we obtain regulatory approval of our product candidates, the products may not gain market acceptance among physicians, patients, hospitals, cancer treatment centers, and others in the medical community. Our products may not become broadly accepted by physicians, patients, hospitals, cancer treatment centers, and others in the medical community. Several factors will influence whether our product candidates are accepted in the market, including:
Our products may not become broadly accepted by physicians, patients, hospitals, cancer treatment centers, and others in the medical community. Several factors will influence whether our product candidates are accepted in the market, including:
Even if we are not determined to have violated these laws, government investigations into these issues typically require the expenditure of significant resources and generate negative publicity, which could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Coverage and reimbursement may be limited or unavailable in certain market segments for our product candidates, which could make it difficult for us to sell our product candidates profitably. Successful sales of our product candidates, if approved, depend on the availability of adequate coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors. In addition, because our product candidates represent new approaches to treat cancer and other immune-related diseases, we cannot accurately estimate the potential revenue from our product candidates.

In addition, because our product candidates represent new approaches to treat cancer and other immune-related diseases, we cannot accurately estimate the potential revenue from our product candidates.
We have received confidential and proprietary information from third parties. In addition, we employ individuals who were previously employed at other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies. We may be subject to claims that uswe or our employees, consultants, or independent contractors have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed confidential information of these third parties or our employees’ former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costcosts and be a distraction to our management and employees.
Even if we isare successful in achieving regulatory approval to commercialize a product candidate faster than our competitors, we may face competition from biosimilars. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which was signed into law in March 2010, included a subtitle called the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act of 2009 (the “BPCIA”). The BPCIA established a regulatory scheme authorizing the FDA to approve biosimilars and interchangeable biosimilars. While certain biosimilar products have been approved by the FDA for use in the United States, none of these have been cell therapy products and none have been interchangeable biosimilars. The FDA has issued several guidance documents outlining an approach to review and approval of biosimilars. Additional guidance is expected to be finalized by the FDA in the near term.
Our shares of common stock could be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.
Nasdaq’s listing standards provide that a company may be delisted if the bid price of its stock drops below $1.00 for a period of 30 consecutive business days. On January 29, 2026, we received a Notification Letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, due to the bid price of the Company’s common stock closing below the minimum $1 per share for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notification Letter. In accordance with listing rules, we were afforded 180 days, or until July 28, 2026, to regain compliance. On February 26, 2026, Nasdaq informed us that we regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
Although we have regained compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement, there is no guarantee that we will remain in compliance with such listing requirements or other listing requirements in the future. Any failure to maintain compliance with continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market could result in delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market and negatively impact our company and holders of our common stock, including by reducing the willingness of investors to hold our common stock because of the resulting decreased price, liquidity and trading of our common stock, limited availability of price quotations and reduced news and analyst coverage. Delisting may adversely impact the perception of our financial condition, cause reputational harm with investors, our employees and parties conducting business with us and limit our access to debt and equity financing
Risks Related to the Kineta Merger
Failure to complete the Kineta Merger could negatively impact our stock price, future business and financial results.
Our obligation to complete the Kineta Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions set forth in the Kineta Merger Agreement. There can be no assurance that the conditions to completion of the Kineta Merger will be satisfied or waived or that the Kineta Merger will be completed. If the Kineta Merger is not completed for any reason, our ongoing businesses may be materially and adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Kineta Merger, we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:
we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative impacts on the trading price of our common stock, which could affect our ability to secure sufficient financing in the future on attractive terms (or at all) as a standalone company, and from our customers, vendors, regulators and employees;
we may be required to pay a termination fee of $1 million if we fail to consummate the Kineta Merger under specified circumstances;
we will be required to pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the Kineta Merger, whether or not the Kineta Merger is completed; and matters relating to the Kineta Merger (including integration planning) will require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management and the expenditure of significant funds in the form of fees and expenses, which would otherwise have been devoted to day-to-day operations and other opportunities that may have been beneficial to our company.
In addition, we could be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger or related to any proceeding to specifically enforce our obligations under the Merger Agreement.
If any of these risks materialize, they may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, financial results and stock prices.
The market price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate after the Kineta Merger.
Upon completion of the Kineta Merger, Kineta stockholders will become holders of our common stock. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly following completion of the Kineta Merger. As a result, former current stockholders could lose some or all of the value of their investment in our common stock. In addition, any significant price or volume fluctuations in the stock market generally could have a material adverse effect on the market for, or liquidity of, the common stock received in the Kineta Merger, regardless of our actual operating performance.
The market price of our common stock may decline in the future as a result of the sale of shares of our common stock held by former Kineta stockholders or current stockholders.
Following their receipt of shares of our common stock as merger consideration, former Kineta stockholders may seek to sell the shares of common stock delivered to them, and, other than former directors and executive officers of Kineta who are subject to a lock-up of one-third of the shares of common stock they receive as merger consideration, the Kineta Merger Agreement contains no restriction on the ability of former Kineta stockholders to sell such shares of common stock following consummation of the Kineta Merger. Other stockholders may also seek to sell shares of our common stock held by them following, or in anticipation of, consummation of the Kineta Merger. These sales (or the perception that these sales may occur), coupled with the increase in the outstanding number of shares of our common stock, may affect the market for, and the market price of, our common stock in an adverse manner.
Satisfying closing conditions may prevent or delay completion of the Kineta Merger.
The Kineta Merger is subject to a number of conditions to closing as specified in the Kineta Merger Agreement. These closing conditions include, among others, the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 registering the issuance of shares of our common stock to Kineta stockholders in connection with the Kineta Merger, our completion of a financing resulting in net proceeds of no less than Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000) (the “Concurrent Investment”), and the absence of any stop order or proceedings by the SEC with respect thereto, and the absence of governmental restraints or prohibitions preventing the completion of the Kineta Merger. The obligation of each of us and Kineta to complete the Kineta Merger are also conditioned on, among other things, the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of the other party on the date of the Kineta Merger Agreement and on the closing date and the compliance by such other party with certain of its covenants, in each case, subject to the materiality standards set forth in the Kineta Merger Agreement. No assurance can be given that the required stockholder approvals will be obtained or that the required conditions to closing will be satisfied (including the condition to complete a financing transaction), and, if all required consents and approvals are obtained and such conditions are satisfied, no assurance can be given as to the terms, conditions and timing of such consents and approvals. Any delay in completing the Kineta Merger could cause some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve if the Kineta Merger is successfully completed within its expected time frame not to be realized, or to be delayed in realizing.
We need to obtain financing in connection with the Kineta Merger and cannot guarantee that we will be able to complete such financing.
Our ability to complete the contemplated Concurrent Investment will depend on, among other factors, prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond our control. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to it or at all, and any such failure could materially adversely affect our operations and financial condition. Our obligation to complete the Kineta Merger is conditioned upon the receipt of the Concurrent Investment. In the event such capital raise is the only condition to the closing of the Kineta Merger not otherwise satisfied, we have agreed to make a $1 million termination fee payment to Kineta if the Kineta Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.
We will incur significant transaction and Kineta Merger-related transition costs in connection with the Kineta Merger.
We expect that we will incur significant, non-recurring costs in connection with consummating the Kineta Merger and integrating the operations of the two companies post-closing. We may incur additional costs to retain key employees. We will also incur significant fees and expenses relating to financing arrangements and legal services (including any costs that would be incurred in defending against any potential class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits in connection with the Kineta Merger if any such proceedings are brought), accounting and other fees and costs, associated with consummating the Kineta Merger. Some of these costs are payable regardless of whether the Kineta Merger is completed. In addition, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $1,000,000 if the Kineta Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances. Though we continue to assess the magnitude of these costs, additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the Kineta Merger and the integration of our business with Kineta’s business.
We may be the target of securities class action and stockholder lawsuits which could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the Kineta Merger from being completed.
Securities class action lawsuits and stockholder lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger agreements. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on our liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion of the Kineta Merger, then that injunction may delay or prevent the Kineta Merger from being completed, which may adversely affect our, or, if the Kineta Merger is completed but delayed, the combined company’s business, financial position and results of operations. As of the date of this Annual Report, no such lawsuits have been filed in connection with the Kineta Merger and we cannot predict whether any will be filed.
The global economy, including credit and financial markets, has experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including, among other things, diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, supply chain shortages, increases in inflation rates, higher interest rates, and uncertainty about economic stability. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in widespread unemployment, economic slowdown, and extreme volatility in the capital markets. The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates multiple times in response to concerns about inflation and it may raise them again.

In this section, we discuss our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of our operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. A discussion of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of our operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.2023 can be found under Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 which was filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025 and is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov as well as our website at ir.tuhurabio.com. References to “we”, “our” and “the Company” refers to Legacy TuHURA for periods prior to the closing of the Kintara Merger, and to TuHURA Biosciences, Inc. (formerly Kintara Therapeutics, Inc.) for all other periods, as the context requires.
We are a clinical stage immuno-oncology company developing novel technologies designed to overcome primary and acquired resistance to cancer immunotherapies. Our proprietary Immune FxTM technology platform, or IFx, is an innate immune agonist technology designed to “trick” the body’s immune system to attack tumor cells by making tumor cells look like bacteria. Our lead product candidate, IFx2.0, is an innate immune agonist designed to overcome primary resistance to checkpoint inhibitors.

In addition to our innateIFx technology platform, in June 2025 we acquired the rights to TBS-2025, a novel VISTA-inhibiting monoclonal antibody formerly known as KVA1213, through our acquisition of Kineta on June 30, 2025.

Following our acquisition of Kineta, we are currently planning on investigating TBS-2025 in a randomized Phase 2 trial in combination with a menin inhibitor vs menin inhibitor alone in mutated NPM1 (mutNPM1) AML.
To date, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to organizing and staffing, business planning, raising capital, identifying and developing product candidates, enhancing our intellectual property portfolio, undertaking research, conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, and securing manufacturing for our development programs. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product sales. We have funded our operations primarily through the private placementissuance of capital stockstock, warrants and convertible notes.
We are not profitable and has incurred significant operating losses in each period since itsour inception, including net losses of $22.6$30.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, and $29.3$21.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 (which includes the expensing of the entire $16.2 million purchase price for the assets of TuHURA Biopharma, of which $15.0 million was paid in the form of Legacy TuHURA common stock).2024. As of December 31, 2024,2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $111.1$141.2 million. Our operating losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year as a result of several factors, including the timing of our preclinical studies and clinical trials and the expenditures related to other research and development activities. We expect to continue to incur operating losses. We anticipate these losses will increase substantially as it advances our product candidates through preclinical and clinical development, develops additional product candidates and seeks regulatory approvals for our product candidates. We do not expect to generate any revenues from product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtains regulatory approval for one or more product candidates. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any product candidate, we expect to incur pre-commercialization expenses and significant commercialization expenses related to marketing, sales, manufacturing and distribution. We may also incur expenses in connection with the in-licensing of additional product candidates. Furthermore, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including significant legal, accounting, investor relations, compliance and other expenses that we did not previously incur as a private company.

June 2025 Private Placement
On June 2, 2025, the Company and certain accredited investors (the “Private Placement Purchasers”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Private Placement Purchasers, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), an aggregate of 4,759,309 shares of common stock together with warrants to purchase an equal number of shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.3125 (the “Private Placement Warrants”), for an aggregate gross offering amount of approximately $12.6 million. The combined effective offering price for each share and accompanying Private Placement Warrant in the Private Placement was $2.65. The Private Placement Warrants have an exercise price per share equal to $3.3125 and will expire on December 31, 2030. The exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants is subject to proportional adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, and similar transactions.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, each Private Placement Purchaser was obligated to purchase such Private Placement Purchaser’s respective investment in the Private Placement in four equal tranches, as follows:
$2.23 million was purchased on June 2, 2025 (the “Initial Closing”);
$2.23 million was purchased on June 9, 2025, following the Company's notification to the Private Placement Purchasers that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified the Company that the Company is no longer subject to the partial clinical hold set forth in the FDA's Partial Clinical Hold letter to the Company dated January 24, 2024, with respect to the Company's planned Phase 3 trial of IFx-2.0;
$2.23 million was purchased on June 24, 2025, following the Company's notification to the Private Placement Purchasers that the Phase 3 trial for IFX-Hu2.0 had been initiated; and $2.23 million was purchased on June 30, 2025, following the Company's notification to the Private Placement Purchasers that all material conditions for the closing of the Company's merger transaction with Kineta had been satisfied (other than conditions that could not be satisfied until on or immediately before the closing of the Kineta Merger) and that the Company was prepared to close the Kineta Merger.
In addition to the approximately $8.9 million that was purchased in four equal tranches pursuant to the foregoing milestones, the remaining $3.7 million in the Private Placement (the “Final Tranche Offering Amount”) was required to be purchased and funded by December 31, 2025 by certain Private Placement Purchasers who agreed to invest an aggregate of $4.0 million or more in the Private Placement and who elected to defer the purchase of a portion of such Private Placement Purchaser’s common stock and Private Placement Warrants until such time (the “Deferral Investors”).
On September 5, 2025, each of Deferral Investors and the Company entered into an agreement (the “Final Purchase Agreements”) pursuant to which they agreed to immediately purchase an aggregate of $3.2 million of the Final Tranche Offering Amount in exchange for the Company’s agreement, set forth in a Warrant Amendment Agreement between the Company and each Deferral Investor (the “Warrant Amendment Agreements”), to extend the expiration dates of certain warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1.5 million shares of Company common stock that were issued by the Company’s predecessor in a 2024 private placement of convertible notes (the “2024 Warrants”). An aggregate of $0.5 million remained outstanding in the Final Tranche Offering Amount and was purchased on December 31, 2025. Under the Warrant Amendment Agreements, the expiration dates of the 2024 Warrants was extended to December 31, 2030. The modification of the 2024 Warrants was related to the Private Placement and the incremental fair value relating to the modification has no net equity effect.
Merger with Kineta, Inc.
On June 30, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 11, 2024, and as amended by that certain First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 5, 2025 (as amended, the “TuHURA-Kineta Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Hura Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub I”), Hura Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub II”), Kineta, and Craig Philips, solely in his capacity the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the stockholders of Kineta. Pursuant to the terms of the TuHURA-Kineta Merger Agreement, among other things, Merger Sub I (a) merged with and into Kineta (the “First Merger”), with Kineta being the surviving corporation of the First Merger, also known as the “Surviving Entity” and (b) immediately following the First Merger, the Surviving Entity merged with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger”, and together with the First Merger, the “Kineta Merger”), with Merger Sub II being the surviving company of the Second Merger and subsequently changing its name to Kineta, LLC.
Upon completion of the Kineta Merger, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the TuHURA-Kineta Merger Agreement, each share of Kineta common stock, par value $0.001 per share (each, a “Kineta Share”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Merger, was converted into the right to receive 0.185298 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate of approximately 2,868,169 shares of Company common stock. Also pursuant to the terms and conditions of the TuHURA-Kineta Merger Agreement, each Kineta Share received its pro rata portion of approximately 1,129,880 shares of Company common stock in December 2025, in accordance with the terms of the TuHURA-Kineta Merger Agreement. In addition, each Kineta Share is entitled to the right to its pro rata share of cash consideration received by Kineta pursuant to disposed asset payments related to legacy Kineta assets. Such payments, if any, will be made at a later date and in accordance with the terms of the TuHURA-Kineta Merger Agreement. In each case, in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares of Company common stock, we will pay an amount equal to the product of (A) such fractional share and (B) $5.7528. As of the date of this Annual Report, all 1,129,880 shares of common stock were issued to the Kineta shareholders and no cash consideration has been received.
Also at the closing of the Kintara Merger, Kintara entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement with the Rights Agent (as defined in the Kintara Merger Agreement), pursuant to which holders of Kintara common stock and Kintara common stock warrants, in each case, as of the close of business on the business day immediately prior to the effective time of the Kintara Merger, received one contingent value right (a “CVR”) for each outstanding share of Kintara held by such stockholder (or, in the case of the warrants, each share of Kintara common stock for which such warrant is exercisable).

Kineta Exclusivity Agreement, July 2024 Private Placement and Kineta Merger Agreement
On July 8, 2024, we issued a press release announcing that we had entered into the Exclusivity Agreement with Kineta for the potential acquisition of Kineta’s KVA12123 anti-VISTA antibody and related rights and assets associated with and derived from the asset.
KVA12123 is a rationally targeted, anti-VISTA antibody checkpoint inhibitor designed to reverse VISTA immune suppression and remodel the tumor microenvironment (TME) to overcome acquired resistance to immunotherapies.
Pursuant to the Exclusivity Agreement, among other things, Kineta granted us an exclusive right to acquire Kineta’s worldwide patents, patent rights, patent applications, product and development program assets, technical and business information, and other rights and assets associated with and derived from its development program related to KVA12123 during a specified period commencing as of July 3, 2024. Under the terms of the Exclusivity Agreement, we paid Kineta a fee in the amount of $5,000,000, with $2,500,000 paid at signing and an additional $2,500,000 paid on July 15, 2024, and we thereafter paid $300,000 in extension payments under the Exclusivity Agreement (the “Exclusivity Payments”). The Exclusivity Payments will be credited against the initial cash consideration payable to under the below-described Kineta Merger Agreement.
In conjunction with the Exclusivity Agreement, we sold 717,321 shares of our common stock in a private offering with a purchase price of $5,000,000 (the “July Private Placement”) to an existing (the “Investor”). In connection with the July Private Placement, the Investor is entitled to a 1.5% royalty on certain sales by us of products based on KVA12123 as set forth in the Investor’s subscription agreement. Due to the inherent uncertainties surrounding the regulatory approval of KvA12123 and future monetization, we have not allocated any of the $5,000,000 purchase price consideration to the royalty agreement.
On December 12, 2024, we announced that we had entered into the Kineta Merger Agreement for the acquisition of Kineta via a merger transaction. The Kineta Merger Agreement contemplates that, at the closing of the merger transaction, Hura Merger Sub I will (a) merge with and into Kineta, with Kineta being the surviving corporation of the First Merger, and (b) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the Surviving Entity will merge with and into Hura Merger Sub II, with Hura Merger Sub II being the surviving company of the Second Merger.
At the effective time of the First Merger, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Kineta Merger Agreement, each share of Kineta Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger will be converted automatically into and will represent the right to receive, without interest, the number of shares of our common stock and cash consideration each calculated according to the terms of the Kineta Merger Agreement. The proposed Kineta Merger currently is expected to be consummated in the second quarter of 2025, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of closing conditions (including the financing condition) under the Kineta Merger Agreement.
Clinical Trial Funding Agreement
In connection with the Kineta Merger Agreement, we entered into a Clinical Trial Funding Agreement (the “CTF Agreement”) with Kineta under which we agreed to continue to fund clinical trial expenses for KVA12123 in an amount of up to $900,000, which may be increased upon mutual agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the CTF Agreement, Kineta granted a security interest to us in the assets, rights, including patents, patent rights, patent application, product and development program assets, and other rights and assets, associated with, derived from, relating to, or used in connection with KVA12123 and the KVA12123 development program and clinical trial. Any amounts loaned to Kineta under the CTF Agreement will be evidenced by a secured promissory note, bearing interest at 5% simple interest per annum, payable on the earlier of (a) following the closing of the Kineta Merger, any date on which we demand payment by written notice to Kineta or (b) if the Kineta Merger Agreement is terminated, within ten days following the date of such termination. The Kineta Merger Agreement also provides that Kineta may request the extension of up to $2,000,000 in working capital loans from us, $1,750,000 of which will be contingent on the completion of a financing transaction by us.
Special Protocol Assessment Agreement
On January 25, 2024, we entered into a Special Protocol Assessment Agreement for a single registration directed, randomized, placebo controlled Phase 3 trial for IFx-Hu2.0 as adjunctive therapy to pembrolizumab (Keytruda®) in first line treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic Merkel Cell carcinoma who are checkpoint inhibitor naive. The trial utilizes a novel design recommended by the FDA which incorporates Objective Response Rate (ORR) as the primary endpoint for accelerated approval. The trial also includes Progression Free Survival (PFS) as a key secondary endpoint which, if achieved, without demonstrating a detriment to Overall Survival, could allow conversion from accelerated approval to full approval satisfying the requirement for a post marketing trial. Before initiating this Phase 3 trial we are required to complete certain CMC activities as noted in a partial clinical hold correspondence from FDA. We have reached agreement with FDA on the requirements for lifting the partial clinical hold and believe we will meet the requirements and consequently expect to receive a complete response letter, or CRL, lifting the partial clinical hold in the second quarter of 2025. We may be in position to initiate the Phase 3 study in the second quarter of 2025 if the results of the mixing studies and potency assay qualifications are acceptable to the FDA.
To date, our research and development expenses have related primarily to the development of IFx-Hu2.0,IFx-2.0, IFx-3.0 (which we are no longer advancing), TBS-2025, manufacturing, clinical studies, and other early pre-clinical activities related to our portfolio. Research and development expenses are recognized as incurred, and payments made prior to the receipt of goods or services to be used in research and development are capitalized until the goods or services are received.
Acquisition-related costs
Acquisition-related costs consist of expenses incurred to effect a business combination, including legal, advisory, accounting, and valuation fees and were expensed as incurred.
Acquired In-Process Research and Development (“IPR&D”)
Acquired in-process research and development expenses consist of existing research and development projects at the time of the acquisition. Projects that qualify as IPR&D assets represent those that have not yet reached technological feasibility and have no alternative future use. Our acquisitions of assets have included IPR&D assets that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use, which resulted in a write-off of these IPR&D assets as acquired in-process research and development expenses in our consolidated statement of operations.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee-related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in our executive, finance, and other administrative functions. Other significant costs include facility related costs, legal fees relating to intellectual property and corporate matters, professional fees for accounting and consulting services and insurance costs. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, and, if any product candidates receive marketing approval, commercialization activities. We also anticipate increased expenses related to audit, legal, regulatory, and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with exchange listing and SEC requirements, director and officer insurance premiums and investor relations costs associated with operating as a public company.
Other Income (Expense) Income
Other expense income (expense) consists of grant income from a NIH-funded research grant from Legacy Kintara REM-001, employee retention tax credit for companies affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, loss on settlements related to Kineta former employees separation payments, interest income on our cash and cash equivalents, interest expense on borrowings under our convertible note agreements,agreements and 2025 bridge loan, and non-cash changes in the fair value of our derivative liability associated with the make-whole premium on our convertible notes.notes Otherand incomeholdback (expense)shares also included grant income from our NIH-funded research grants completed in May 2023, employee retention tax credit for companies with employees affected duringon the COVID-19Kineta pandemic, and forgiveness of a paycheck protection program loan in April 2022.Merger.
Warrant modification represents an extension of the exercise period of common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with Legacy TuHURA Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Warrants”) for an additional six months, with a new expiry date of February 12, 2025. The warrant modification has been recorded as a direct increase in accumulated deficit.
an increase of approximately $0.6 million due to ongoing clinical development of TBS-2025;
an increase of approximately $0.4$0.9 million due to preclinical research of IFx-3.0IFx-3.0, MDSCs and MDSCsREM-001; and an increase of approximately $1.9$4.6 million in facilities, salary and personnel related costs.
Acquired in process research and development (“IPR&D”). On January 26, 2023, we acquired certain assets of TuHURA Biopharma, for $1.2 million in cash and 4.1 million shares of Legacy TuHURA common stock. The common shares issued to TuHURA Biopharma had an estimated fair market value of $15.0 million. We performed the “screen test” and determined that substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired in the TuHURA Biopharma acquisition was concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. As such, the TuHURA Biopharma acquisition has been accounted for as an asset acquisition. As the underlying asset is in-process research and development, we immediately expensed the entire $16.2 million purchase price for the year ended December 31, 2023, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 730.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $4.3 million and $4.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The increase of $0.2 million was primarily due to increases in non-cash stock compensation expense and costs associated with being a public company incurred in 2024 offset by decrease in legal fees associated with the subsequently abandoned proposed merger with CohBar, Inc. which were incurred in 2023.
Employee Retention Tax Credit. The IRS provided a refundable tax credit for businesses that had employees that were affected during the COVID-19 pandemic. In October 2022, we applied for a credit under this program and in May 2023, we received notice that the credit would be $0.3 million of which $0.1 million was received in 2024.
Grant Income. Grant income was $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In April 2021, we received approval from the Department of Health and Human Services for a $0.4 million grant to study cervical cancer and received reimbursements for related expenses associated with the grant. We received the final payment under this grant in May 2023. Additionally, in October 2024, we assumed the Kintara Health and Human Services grant on REM-001 and received reimbursements for related expenses associated with the grant.
Interest Expense. From December 2023 to September 2024, as part of our private placement financing under which we offered and sold convertible promissory note (the “TuHURA Notes”), we issued convertible notes totaling $31,253,000. The convertible notes included interest at 20% per annum, accretion to maturity date, and amortization of debt discount. Upon the completion of the Kintara Merger, all principal and accrued and unpaid interest and make-whole amounts under the TuHURA Notes automatically converted into shares of our common stock at a conversion price $3.80 per share of our common stock. There was no cash paid for interest in the TuHURA Notes.

Our credit facility with Parkview Holdings One, LLC, which is secured by substantially all of our assets, together with the related royalty agreement with Parkview, could materially and adversely our financial condition and future operations and may cause substantial dilution to our stockholders.
In April 2026, we entered into a revolving credit facility with Parkview Holdings One LLC (“Lender”), an affiliate of the Company’s largest stockholder, with an aggregate commitment of up to $50.0 million. Our obligations under the facility bear interest at 12% per annum and matures on April 21, 2031. To secure our obligations, we and our subsidiaries granted the Lender a first‑priority lien on substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets, including our intellectual property. The loan documents also contain extensive affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional debt or liens, dispose of assets, make investments or restricted payments, transfer material intellectual property, or enter into affiliate transactions, in each case subject to limited exceptions. The loan documents include customary events of default and provide that, upon an event of default, the Lender may accelerate the indebtedness, terminate its commitments and exercise remedies against the collateral, including foreclosing on our and our subsidiaries’ assets. In addition, upon a specified event of default and only if our stockholders approve the conversion in accordance with applicable Nasdaq rules, the Lender may elect to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal and accrued interest into shares of our common stock at a fixed conversion price, which could result in significant dilution to our stockholders. Further, if we generate positive Net Profits (as defined in the loan agreement) from the sale of pharmaceutical products for two consecutive fiscal quarters, we are required to make an additional prepayment equal to 75% of Net Profits for the last fiscal quarter in which the trigger occurred (up to the outstanding principal), which would reduce cash that would otherwise be available for our operations and growth initiatives. These restrictions and obligations could impair our ability to finance our business, pursue acquisitions or strategic transactions, develop and commercialize our product candidates, or otherwise operate our business in accordance with our strategy. If we are unable to borrow sufficient funds under the credit facility to fund our operations, our financial position and development and operating activities will be adversely affected.
Concurrently with the loan facility, we entered into a separate royalty agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”) with the Lender under which we (and, in certain cases, our sublicensees or affiliates) agreed to pay annual royalties on worldwide Net Sales of products that use our IFx‑2.0 technology, subject to specified tiered rates, deductions and offsets. Royalty payments are due within 90 days after each royalty year and any late payments accrue interest. Our obligation to pay royalties, which is separate and apart from our debt service obligations under the credit facility, will reduce the net revenues we retain from future commercialization, may materially and adversely affect our liquidity, and could create tension with our debt covenants and operating needs, particularly if commercialization commences before we are profitable or if commercialization is slower than expected.
If we fail to comply with the covenants under the credit facility or the terms of the Royalty Agreement, or if an event of default occurs under the loan documents, the Lender could accelerate the indebtedness, exercise remedies against substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets and, in certain circumstances and subject to stockholder approval, convert debt to equity at a fixed price, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects and could force us to curtail or cease operations, seek additional financing on unfavorable terms, or seek protection under bankruptcy or other insolvency laws, all of which could materially and adversely affect our cash flows, business, results of operations and financial condition.

(“Kintara”)) for all other periods, as the context requires.
We are a clinical stage immuno-oncology company developing novel technologies designed to overcome primary and acquired resistance to cancer immunotherapies. Our proprietary Immune FxTM technology platform, or IFx, is an innate immune agonist technology designed to “trick” the body’s immune system to attack tumor cells by making tumor cells look like bacteria. Our lead product candidate, IFx-2.0, is an innate immune agonist designed to overcome primary resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. In June 2025, we initiated a single randomized placebo-controlled Phase 3 registration trial of IFx-2.0 administered as an adjunctive therapy to Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in first line treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma who are checkpoint inhibitor naïve utilizing the FDA’s accelerated approval pathway. In addition to our IFx technology platform, in June 2025 we acquired the rights to TBS-2025, a novel VISTA-inhibiting monoclonal antibody formerly known as KVA12123, through our acquisition of Kineta, Inc. (“Kineta”) on June 30, 2025 (the “Kineta Merger”). VISTA (otherwise referred to as V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation) is an immune checkpoint highly expressed on myeloid cells that is believed to be a strong driver of immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment and is believed to be a primary mechanism by which leukemic blasts escape immune recognition contributing to low response rates and high rates of recurrence in acute myeloid leukemia, or AML. Following our acquisition of Kineta, we are currently planning on investigating TBS-2025 in a randomized Phase 1b/2 trial in combination with a menin inhibitor vs menin inhibitor alone in mutated NPM1 (mutNPM1) AML.
To date, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to organizing and staffing, business planning, raising capital, identifying and developing product candidates, enhancing our intellectual property portfolio, undertaking research, conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, and securing manufacturing for our development programs. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product sales. We have funded our operations primarily through debt financings, the issuance of capital stock, warrants and convertible notes.
We are not profitable and have incurred significant operating losses in each period since our inception, including net losses of $7.5$9.2 million and $16.8 million for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, and $30.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $148.7$157.9 million. Our operating losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year as a result of several factors, including the timing of our preclinical studies and clinical trials and the expenditures related to other research and development activities. We expect to continue to incur operating losses. We anticipate these losses will increase substantially as we advance our product candidates through preclinical and clinical development, develop additional product candidates and seek regulatory approvals for our product candidates. We do not expect to generate any revenues from product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for one or more product candidates. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any product candidate, we expect to incur pre-commercialization expenses and significant commercialization expenses related to marketing, sales, manufacturing and distribution. We may also incur expenses in connection with the in-licensing of additional product candidates.
As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from sales of our product candidates, if ever, we expect to finance our cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations and licensing arrangements or other capital sources. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such other arrangements as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and could force itus to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market our product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market itself.ourselves.
As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6.3$1.0 million. See “ — Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.
Parkview Credit Facility
On April 21, 2026, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Parkview Holdings One LLC (“Parkview”), an affiliate of K&V Investment LLC (“K&V Investment One”) (a holder of more than 5% of the Company’s fully diluted capital stock and an entity owned by Mr. Vijay Patel), pursuant to which Parkview agreed to extend a $50 million revolving credit facility to the Company maturing on April 21, 2031. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at 12% per annum (plus an additional 6% during any event of default), payable monthly in arrears, and are secured by substantially all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued expenses and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, contained in Part I, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we believe the following accounting policies and estimates to be most critical to the preparation of our financial statements.
Stock-based compensation expense represents the cost of the grant date fair value of equity awards recognized over the requisite service period of the awards (usually the vesting period) on a straight-line basis. We estimate the fair value of equity awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognizesrecognize forfeitures as they occur. Estimating the fair value of equity awards as of the grant date using valuation models, such as the Black-Scholes option pricing model, is affected by assumptions regarding a number of variables, including the risk-free interest rate, the expected stock price volatility, the expected term of stock options, the expected dividend yield and the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Changes in the assumptions can materially affect the fair value and ultimately how much stock-based compensation expense is recognized. These inputs are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. See Note 2 of our financial statements for information concerning certain of the specific assumptions we use in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the estimated fair value of our stock options granted.
Goodwill and other intangible assets comprised of IPR&D on our balance sheet as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were in connection with the Kineta Merger.
There are no recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements that have a material effect on the CompanyCompany’s financial statements.
