Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] |
Stockholders' Equity | Note 11. Stockholders' Equity Preferred Stock. We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which was outstanding as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Board of Directors may determine the rights, preferences and privileges of any preferred stock issued in the future. Common Stock. We are authorized to issue 400,000,000 shares of common stock. Share Repurchase and Modified "Dutch Auction" Tender Offer. On May 13, 2024 we announced that our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization of $2.0 billion. Subsequently, we commenced a modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer to repurchase shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $1.672 billion (the “tender offer”). We offered to purchase up to $1.672 billion in value of our common stock at a price not greater than $60.00 per share nor less than $52.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the tender offer documents that were distributed to stockholders. A modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer allows stockholders to indicate how much stock they wish to tender and at what price within the range described above. Based on the number of shares tendered and the prices specified by the tendering stockholders, we determined the lowest price per share that enabled us to purchase $1.672 billion of common stock at such price. On June 13, 2024 we completed the tender offer and repurchased 27,866,666 shares at a price of $60.00 per share for an aggregate price of approximately $1.672 billion, excluding fees and related expenses, pursuant to the tender offer. In addition, on May 12, 2024, we entered into a separate stock purchase agreement with Julian C. Baker (a member of our Board of Directors), Felix J. Baker, and entities affiliated with Julian C. and Felix J. Baker, including funds advised by Baker Bros. Advisors LP (collectively, the “Baker Entities”), to repurchase up to $328.0 million of our common stock. This would enable the Baker Entities to maintain their ownership level as of May 9, 2024 of approximately 16.4% of Incyte’s outstanding common stock. The Baker Entities purchase was to be at the same price per share as is determined and paid in the tender offer. On June 26, 2024, we repurchased 5,459,183 shares at a price of $60.00 per share for an aggregate price of approximately $328.0 million pursuant to the terms of the stock purchase agreement with the Baker Entities. We account for share repurchases as retirements, whereby it reduces common stock and additional paid-in capital by the amount of the original issuance, with any excess purchase price recorded as a reduction to retained earnings (accumulated deficit). Any transaction costs, including the excise tax, directly associated with the share repurchases are included as part of the purchase price. Under this method, the issued and outstanding shares of common stock are reduced by the number of shares of common stock repurchased, and no treasury stock is recognized on the consolidated financial statements. A total of 33,325,849 common shares were repurchased during June 2024 at a price of $60.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.0 billion. We incurred $24.4 million in fees and expenses associated with the share repurchase, which included $19.2 million for excise taxes on share repurchases in accordance with the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. We currently expect to pay the excise tax in the first half of 2025. These costs are recognized within (accumulated deficit) retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 as costs to repurchase our common stock. The purchased shares were cancelled and ceased to be outstanding. Stock Compensation Plans. As of December 31, 2024, we had a total of 4,302,716 shares of our common stock available for future issuance related to our stock plans as described below. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan. In May 2010 the Board of Directors adopted the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2010 Stock Plan”), which was most recently amended in April 2023, for issuance of common stock to employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and scientific advisors. Awards under the 2010 Stock Plan include stock options, RSUs and PSUs. In June 2023, our stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2010 Stock Plan from 53,953,475 to 66,453,475. 2024 Inducement Stock Incentive Plan. In January 2024, our Board of Directors adopted the Incyte Corporation 2024 Inducement Stock Incentive Plan (the “2024 Inducement Plan”). In reliance on Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(c)(4), stockholder approval was not obtained. A total of 1,000,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2024 Inducement Plan. Stock Options Options are granted to employees, consultants, and scientific advisors under the 2010 Stock Plan and 2024 Inducement Plan. Options are also granted under the 2010 Stock Plan to non-employee members of our Board of Directors, pursuant to a formula set forth in the 2010 Stock Plan. All options are exercisable at the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Our annual stock option grants generally have a 10-year term and vest over four years, with 25% vesting after one year and the remainder vesting in 36 equal monthly installments, subject to customary retirement provisions that may accelerate the requisite service period for expense recognition purposes. Non-employee director options expire after 10 years and vest in full on the first anniversary of the date of grant or, if earlier, the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders. Option activity under the 2010 Stock Plan and 2024 Inducement Plan was as follows:

Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares RSUs and PSUs are granted to our employees at the share price on the date of grant. Each RSU represents the right to acquire one share of our common stock. Each RSU granted in connection with our annual equity awards will vest 25% annually over four years, while each RSU granted as outstanding merit awards or as part of retention award programs will vest in a single installment at the end of four years, subject to customary retirement provisions that may accelerate the requisite service period for expense recognition purposes. We grant PSUs with performance and/or service-based milestones with graded and/or cliff vesting over three to four years. The shares of our common stock into which each PSU may convert is subject to a multiplier based on the level at which the financial, developmental and market performance conditions are achieved over the service period. Compensation expense for PSUs with financial and developmental performance conditions is recorded over the estimated service period for each milestone when the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement. For PSUs containing performance conditions which were not deemed probable of achievement, no stock compensation expense is recorded. Compensation expense for PSUs with market performance conditions is calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model as of the date of grant and recorded over the requisite service period. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we recorded $30.1 million, $17.2 million and $7.8 million, respectively, of stock compensation expense for PSUs on our consolidated statements of operations.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan. On May 21, 1997, our stockholders adopted the 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which was most recently amended in April 2023 (the “ESPP”). Each regular full-time and part-time employee working 20 hours or more per week is eligible to participate after one month of employment. In June 2023, our stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP from 9,600,000 to 10,350,000. We issued 453,312, 380,145 and 308,413 shares under the ESPP in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, we recorded stock compensation expense of $5.3 million, $5.1 million and $4.7 million, respectively, as the ESPP is considered compensatory under the FASB stock compensation rules. As of December 31, 2024, 289,105 shares remain available for issuance under the ESPP.
