Equity [Abstract] |
Pre-Funded Warrants | Pre-Funded Warrants In connection with our underwritten public offering in April 2023, we issued pre-funded warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $40.999 per underlying share. Each pre-funded warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per share. In connection with our underwritten public offering in February 2024, we issued pre-funded warrants to purchase 781,250 shares of our common stock at a price of $63.999 per underlying share. Each pre-funded warrant has an exercise price of $0.001 per share. The public offering prices for the pre-funded warrants were equal to the public offering prices of our common stock, less the $0.001 exercise price of each pre-funded warrant and were recorded as a component of stockholders' equity within additional paid-in-capital. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and payment of the exercise price. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a pre-funded warrant. The holders of the pre-funded warrants may also satisfy their obligation to pay the exercise price through a “cashless exercise,” in which the holder receives the net value of the pre-funded warrant in shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the pre-funded warrant. The pre-funded warrants will not expire until they are fully exercised. However, we may not effect the exercise of any pre-funded warrants, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any pre-funded warrants that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause: (i) the aggregate number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as applicable; or (ii) the combined voting power of our securities beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99% of the combined voting power of all of our securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as applicable, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the pre-funded warrants. However, any holder of a pre-funded warrant may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99% upon at least 61 days' prior notice for the holder to us. As of June 30, 2024, in aggregate, we have issued pre-funded warrants to purchase 8,031,250 shares of our common stock and no shares underlying the pre-funded warrants had been exercised.
