In July 2019, the Company authorized the sale of up to 61,773,000 shares of its Series C convertible preferred stock, or Series C, at a price of $1.4693 per share, or Series C Financing. In July and August 2019, the Company issued 37,432,787 shares of Series C for aggregate gross proceeds of $55.0 million. In connection with this financing, certain purchasers of the Series C had the option to purchase up to an additional 17,014,902 shares of Series C at a price per share of $1.4693 for a period of up to 30 days after the Company notified them of the three-month readout from the Phase 2a clinical trial of GB-102 in patients with macular edema secondary to diabetic macular edema and retinal vein occlusion, or the Preferred Stock Tranche Obligation. The Company concluded that the Preferred Stock Tranche Obligation met the definition of a freestanding financial instrument, as the rights were legally detachable and separately exercisable from the Series C. Therefore, the Company allocated the proceeds received from the issuance of shares under the Series C Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement between the Preferred Stock Tranche Obligation and the Series C. The fair value of the Preferred Stock Tranche Obligation of $2.2 million on issuance was allocated from the $55.0 million proceeds of the Series C Financing and is classified as a current liability on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, as the Series C would become redeemable upon a deemed liquidation event, the occurrence of which was not within the Company’s control.

In September 2020, the board of directors and the Series C investors amended the Series C stock purchase agreement such that the Preferred Stock Tranche Obligation was no longer exercisable and expired upon the effectiveness of the Company’s IPO registration statement.  As a result, the liability for the Preferred Stock Tranche Obligation was permanently eliminated as of September 24, 2020.

Prior to the completion of the IPO on September 24, 2020, all of the outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock automatically converted into 13,085,913 shares of common stock. Subsequent to the closing of the IPO on September 29, 2020, there were no shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding.
