Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Nature of Business | 1. Nature of Business Nuvalent, Inc. (the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on creating precisely targeted therapies for patients with cancer. The Company was founded in January 2017 as a Delaware corporation. The Company is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and manages its business as one operating segment. All of the Company’s operations are in the United States. The Company is subject to risks similar to those of other pre-commercial stage companies in the biopharmaceutical industry, including dependence on key individuals, the need to develop commercially viable products, competition from other companies, many of which are larger and better capitalized, the need to obtain adequate additional financing to fund the development of its product candidates, the need to obtain and maintain adequate protection for the Company’s intellectual property, and the impact of public health emergencies, natural disasters and geopolitical events on the Company’s business. There can be no assurance that the Company’s research and development will be successful, that adequate protection for the Company’s intellectual property will be obtained and maintained, that any product candidates will receive required regulatory approval or that approved products, if any, will be commercially viable. Even if the Company’s development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will generate significant revenue from the sale of its products. The Company has incurred recurring losses since inception, including net losses of $101.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and $126.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $387.9 million. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company will need to obtain additional funding through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or strategic alliances. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Company may not be able to enter into strategic alliances. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company’s stockholders. Arrangements with collaborators or others may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies or programs. If the Company is unable to obtain funding, the Company may be required to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of its research and development programs or the Company may be unable to continue operations. Although management will continue to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to the Company to fund continuing operations when needed or at all.
