Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Description of Operations | Description of Operations FibroGen, Inc. (“FibroGen” or the “Company”) is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with subsidiary offices in Beijing and Shanghai, People’s Republic of China (“China”). FibroGen is a leading biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing a pipeline of first-in-class therapeutics. The Company applies its pioneering expertise in hypoxia-inducible factor ("HIF") biology, 2-oxoglutarate enzymology, and connective tissue growth factor to advance innovative medicines for the treatment of anemia, fibrotic disease, and cancer. Pamrevlumab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting connective tissue growth factor, is in Phase 3 clinical development for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Roxadustat is an oral small molecule inhibitor of HIF prolyl hydroxylase (“HIF-PH”) activity that is approved for the treatment of anemia caused by chronic kidney disease (“CKD”) in dialysis and non-dialysis patients, under the tradename EVRENZO®, in the European Union, Great Britain, Japan, South Korea, Chile, Russia, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait. Roxadustat is being commercialized in China for CKD anemia in dialysis and non-dialysis patients under the tradename: 爱瑞卓®. Roxadustat is in Phase 3 clinical development for anemia associated with myelodysplastic syndromes. We have completed a Phase 2 study of roxadustat in chemotherapy-induced anemia and are running a Phase 3 trial for roxadustat in China. We have a pipeline of late-stage clinical programs as well as pre-clinical drug candidates at various stages of development that include both small molecules and biologics. We have leveraged our internally developed 2-oxoglutarate and connective tissue growth factor biology expertise as well as in-licensing of additional programs, such as antibodies targeting Galectin-9 protein (“Gal-9”) and C-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 8 (“CCR8”), to further enhance our late-stage preclinical pipeline. Our goal is to build a diversified pipeline with novel drugs that will address unmet patient needs in oncology, immunology, and fibrosis.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FibroGen, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority-owned subsidiaries, FibroGen Europe Oy and FibroGen China Anemia Holdings, Ltd. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. For any variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which FibroGen is not the primary beneficiary, the Company uses the equity method of accounting. The Company operates as one reportable segment — the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat serious unmet medical needs. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed on February 28, 2022 and as amended on March 4, 2022 (“2021 Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions include valuation and recognition of revenue, specifically, estimates in variable consideration for drug product sales, and estimates in transaction price per unit for the China performance obligation (as defined and discussed under Significant Accounting Policies below). On an ongoing basis, management reviews these estimates and assumptions. Changes in facts and circumstances may alter such estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates. In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FibroGen, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority-owned subsidiaries, FibroGen Europe Oy and FibroGen China Anemia Holdings, Ltd. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. For any variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which FibroGen is not the primary beneficiary, the Company uses the equity method of accounting. The Company operates as one reportable segment — the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat serious unmet medical needs.

The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed on February 28, 2022 and as amended on March 4, 2022 (“2021 Form 10-K”). Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions include valuation and recognition of revenue, specifically, estimates in variable consideration for drug product sales, and estimates in transaction price per unit for the China performance obligation (as defined and discussed under Significant Accounting Policies below). On an ongoing basis, management reviews these estimates and assumptions. Changes in facts and circumstances may alter such estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates. In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies used by the Company in its presentation of interim financial results are consistent with those presented in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the 2021 Form 10-K, except for the updates to the following: Stock-Based Compensation The Company maintains equity incentive plans under which incentive and nonqualified stock options are granted to employees, which are comprised of stock options, service-based restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance-based RSUs and total shareholder return (“TSR”) awards. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock options, service and performance-based restricted stock units granted to its employees and directors based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards. The determination of the grant date fair value of options using the Black-Scholes valuation model is affected by the Company’s estimated common stock fair value and requires management to make a number of assumptions including the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock, the risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. To estimate the fair value of the TSR awards, the Company uses the Monte Carlo valuation model to simulate the probabilities of achievement, which requires management to make a number of assumptions including 30-day average price, volatility of the underlying stock and our peers, and the risk-free interest rate. The compensation cost of service-based stock options and restricted stock units is recognized net of any estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the employee requisite service period. Compensation cost for performance-based RSUs is expensed over the respective vesting periods when the achievement of performance criteria is probable. Compensation cost for the TSR awards is recognized over the requisite service period, regardless of when, if ever, the market condition is satisfied. The Company believes that the fair value of stock options granted to non-employees is more reliably measured than the fair value of the services received. Net Loss per Share Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive and as such, these shares are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company reported a net loss, respectively. Therefore, dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued since their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted weighted average shares excluded potential common shares related to stock options, restricted stock units (including service-based RSUs, performance-based RSUs and TSR awards) and shares to be purchased under the employee stock purchase plan totaling 12.2 millio n and 7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as they were anti-dilutive. Risks and Uncertainties The Company’s future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, rapid technological change, obtaining second source suppliers, regulatory approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or other regulatory authorities, the results of clinical trials and the achievement of milestones, market acceptance of the Company’s product candidates, competition from other products and larger companies, protection of proprietary technology, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals. Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides companies with optional financial reporting alternatives to reduce the cost and complexity associated with the accounting for contracts and hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform. This guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Subsequently in January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which clarifies ASU 2020-04 and provides certain optional expedients that allow derivative instruments impacted by changes in the interest rate used for margining, discounting or contract price alignment to qualify for certain optional relief. ASU 2021-01 is effective in the same timeframe as ASU2020-04. The relief offered by this guidance, if adopted, is available to companies for the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has certain lease arrangements that are linked to t he London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). The Company is in the process of evaluating options for transitioning away from LIBOR and expects to complete this analysis by the time LIBOR is phased out. The Company did not elect to apply any of the expedients or exceptions as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and is currently evaluating the impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures upon adoption of this guidance.

Collaboration Agreements, License Agreement and Revenues | Astellas Agreements Japan Agreement In June 2005, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with Astellas Pharma Inc. (“Astellas”) for the development and commercialization (but not manufacture) of roxadustat for the treatment of anemia in Japan (“Japan Agreement”). Under this agreement, Astellas agreed to pay license fees, other upfront consideration and various milestone payments, totaling $172.6 million. The Japan Agreement also provides for tiered payments based on net sales of product (as defined) in the low 20% range of the list price published by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, adjusted for certain elements, after commercial launch. The aggregate amount of consideration received through March 31, 2022 totaled $105.1 million, excluding drug product revenue that is discussed separately below.
Product Revenue, Net | Product Revenue, Net Product revenue, net from the sales of roxadustat commercial product in China was as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Direct Sales: |  |  |  |  |  |
Gross revenue |  | $ | 2,830 |  |  | $ | 5,429 |
Discounts and rebates |  |  | (175 | ) |  |  | (562 | )
Sales returns |  |  | 3 |  |  |  | 89 |
Direct sales revenue, net |  |  | 2,658 |  |  |  | 4,956 |
Sales to Falikang: |  |  |  |  |  |
Gross transaction price |  |  | 22,726 |  |  |  | 24,401 |
Profit share |  |  | (8,849 | ) |  |  | (10,064 | )
Net transaction price |  |  | 13,877 |  |  |  | 14,337 |
Decrease (increase) in deferred revenue |  |  | 2,346 |  |  |  | (3,931 | )
Sales to Falikang revenue, net |  |  | 16,223 |  |  |  | 10,406 |
Total product revenue, net |  | $ | 18,881 |  |  | $ | 15,362 |
Direct Sales Product revenue from direct roxadustat product sales to distributors in China is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products, net of various sales rebates and discounts. The total discounts and rebates were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Due to the Company’s legal right to offset, at each balance sheet date, the rebates and discounts are presented as reductions to gross accounts receivable from the distributor, or as a current liability to the distributor to the extent that the total amount exceeds the gross accounts receivable or when the Company expects to settle the discount in cash. The Company’s legal right to offset is calculated at the individual distributor level. The following table includes a roll-forward of the contract liabilities (in thousands):
|  | Balance at December 31, 2021 |  |  | Additions |  |  | Deduction |  |  | Currency Translation and Other |  |  | Balance at March 31, 2022 |
Product revenue - Direct sales - contract liabilities |  | $ | (3,176 | ) |  | $ | (407 | ) |  | $ | 835 |  |  | $ | (11 | ) |  | $ | (2,759 | )
The above contract liabilities were included in accrued and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The rebates and discounts reflected as reductions to gross accounts receivable for direct sales wer e $0.6 million and $1.1 million a s of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Sales to Falikang – China Performance Obligation Since Falikang became fully operational in January 2021, substantially all direct roxadustat product sales to distributors in China are made by Falikang. FibroGen Beijing manufactures and supplies commercial product to Falikang. The net transfer price for FibroGen Beijing’s product sales to Falikang is based on a gross transfer price, which is adjusted to account for the 50/50 profit share for the period. The roxadustat sales to Falikang marked the beginning of the Company’s China performance obligation under the Company’s agreements with AstraZeneca. Product revenue is based on the transaction price of the China performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to Falikang, in an amount that reflects the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation satisfied during the reporting period. Any net transaction price in excess of the revenue recognized is added to the deferred balance to date, and will be recognized over future periods as the performance obligation is satisfied. Following updates to its estimates, the Company recognized $2.3 million from the previously deferred revenue of the China performance obligation during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The following table includes a roll-forward of the related deferred revenue that is considered as a contract liability (in thousands):
|  | Balance at December 31, 2021 |  |  | Additions |  |  | Recognized as Revenue |  |  | Balance at March 31, 2022 |
Product revenue - AstraZeneca China performance obligation - deferred revenue |  | $ | (171,516 | ) |  | $ | (15,945 | ) |  | $ | 16,223 |  |  | $ | (171,238 | )
Deferred revenue includes amounts allocated to the China performance obligation under the AstraZeneca arrangement as revenue recognition associated with this unit of accounting is tied to the commercial launch of the products within China and to when the control of the manufactured commercial products is transferred to AstraZeneca. As of March 31, 2022, approximately $12.6 million of the above deferred revenue related to the China unit of accounting was included in short-term deferred revenue, which represents the amount of deferred revenue associated with the China unit of accounting that is expected to be recognized within the next 12 months, associated with the commercial sales in China. Due to the Company’s legal right to offset, at each balance sheet date, the rebates and discounts, mainly related to profit sharing, are presented as reductions to gross accounts receivable from Falikang, which was $8.2 million and $13.4 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Drug Product Revenue | Drug Product Revenue Drug product revenue from commercial-grade active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) or bulk drug product sales to AstraZeneca and Astellas was as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Astellas |  | $ | 7,594 |  |  | $ | 4,030 |
AstraZeneca |  |  | — |  |  |  | 4,450 |
Drug product revenue |  | $ | 7,594 |  |  | $ | 8,480 |
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company fulfilled a shipment obligation under the terms of Japan Amendment with Astellas, and recognized related drug product revenue of $9.8 million in the same period. In addition, the Company updated its estimate of variable consideration related to the API shipments fulfilled under the terms of Japan Amendment with Astellas, and recorded a reduction to the drug product revenue of $2.2 million du ring the three months ended March 31, 2022, and $4.0 million additional drug product revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Specifically, the change in estimated variable consideration was based on the API held by Astellas at period end, adjusted to reflect the changes in the estimated bulk product strength mix intended to be manufactured by Astellas, estimated cost to convert the API to bulk product tablets, and estimated yield from the manufacture of bulk product tablets, among others. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company billed and received $49.2 million from Astellas related to the annual transfer price true up for bulk drug product transferred for commercial purposes under the terms of the Europe Agreement and the EU Supply Agreement with Astellas. This amount was recorded in deferred revenue and netted against an unbilled contract asset as of December 31, 2021. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company updated its estimate of variable consideration related to the bulk drug product transferred in prior years. Specifically, the change in estimated variable consideration was based on the bulk drug product held by Astellas at the period end, adjusted to reflect the changes in the estimated transfer price, forecast information, shelf-life estimates and other items. As a result, the Company reclassified $45.5 million from deferred revenue to accrued liabilities as of March 31, 2022, representing its best estimate that this amount will be paid in the first quarter of 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company evaluated the current developments in the U.S. market, and updated its estimates of variable consideration associated with bulk drug product shipments to AstraZeneca in prior years as commercial supply under the terms of the Master Supply Agreement. As a result, the Company reclassified $11.2 million from the related deferred revenue to accrued liabilities as of March 31, 2022. The following table includes a roll-forward of the above-mentioned deferred revenues that are considered as contract liabilities related to drug product (in thousands):
|  | Balance at December 31, 2021 |  |  | Additions |  |  | Reclassified to Accrued Liability |  |  | Balance at March 31, 2022 |
Astellas - Japan Agreement |  | $ | (1,974 | ) |  | $ | (2,226 | ) |  | $ | 4,200 |  |  | $ | — |
Astellas - Europe Agreement |  |  | (25,891 | ) |  |  | (49,160 | ) |  |  | 45,463 |  |  |  | (29,588 | )
AstraZeneca - U.S. Agreement |  |  | (11,171 | ) |  |  | — |  |  |  | 11,171 |  |  |  | — |
Drug product revenue - deferred revenue |  | $ | (39,036 | ) |  | $ | (51,386 | ) |  | $ | 60,834 |  |  | $ | (29,588 | )
