Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Organization | Organization Business Overview Vir Biotechnology, Inc. (“Vir” or the “Company”) is an immunology company focused on combining cutting-edge technologies to treat and prevent serious infectious diseases and other serious conditions. Vir has assembled two technology platforms that are designed to stimulate and enhance the immune system by exploiting critical observations of natural immune processes. Its current clinical development pipeline consists of product candidates targeting hepatitis B virus (“HBV”), hepatitis delta virus (“HDV”) and human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”). Vir has several preclinical candidates in its pipeline including those targeting influenza A and B, coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”), respiratory syncytial virus and human metapneumovirus, (“RSV” and “MPV”, respectively), and human papillomavirus (“HPV”). In January 2023, a majority-owned subsidiary, Encentrio Therapeutics, Inc. (“Encentrio”), was incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company initially owned 80% of Encentrio’s outstanding voting shares. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company increased its ownership of Encentrio's outstanding voting shares to 100%. The primary purpose of Encentrio is to conduct research and development of oncology therapeutics. Liquidity and Capital Resources In November 2020, the Company entered into a sales agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC (“Cowen”), under which the Company may from time to time offer and sell shares of its common stock for an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million, through or to Cowen, acting as sales agent or principal. The shares will be offered and sold under the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and a related prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 10, 2020. The Company will pay Cowen a commission of up to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of shares, reimburse legal fees and disbursements and provide Cowen with customary indemnification and contribution rights. As of September 30, 2023, no shares have been sold under the Sales Agreement. The Sales Agreement will expire in November 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $1.7 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and investments, which the Company believes will be sufficient to fund its operations for a period through at least twelve months from the issuance date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
