Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] |
Moderna Collaboration and License Agreement | Moderna Collaboration and License Agreement In January 2022, the Company entered into the Moderna License Agreement, which provides for a broad strategic collaboration to discover, develop and commercialize in vivo engineered CAR-M therapeutics for up to twelve oncology programs. Moderna has the right to designate up to twelve research targets as development targets. The first five research targets have been designated and all programs are currently in the discovery phase. Upon Moderna’s election of a development target (and payment of a related development target designation milestone) for commencement of pre-clinical development of a product candidate, the Company will grant Moderna an exclusive worldwide, sublicensable royalty bearing license to develop, manufacture and commercialize the product candidate. Under the terms of the Moderna License Agreement, Moderna made an upfront non-refundable payment of $45.0 million to the Company. Assuming Moderna develops and commercializes 12 products, each directed to a different development target, the Company is eligible to receive up to between $247.0 million and $253.0 million per product in development target designation, development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments. Moderna also will reimburse the Company for all costs incurred by the Company in connection with its research and development activities under the Moderna License Agreement plus a reasonable margin for the respective services performed (with a minimum commitment to reimburse $10.0 million in research and development costs over the first three years from execution of the Moderna License Agreement). The Company is also eligible to receive tiered mid-to-high single digit royalties of net sales of any products that are commercialized under the agreement, which may be, subject to reductions. In addition, Moderna has agreed to cover the cost the Company incurs for certain milestone payments and royalties that the Company owes as a licensor under one of its intellectual property in-license agreements with Penn, which is sublicensed to Moderna under the Moderna License Agreement. Moderna may deduct these royalties in part from any royalties owed to the Company. The Moderna License Agreement terminates on a product-by-product basis upon the latest of expiration of the applicable product patents, expiration of regulatory exclusivity and the tenth anniversary of first commercial sale, unless terminated earlier by the Company or Moderna. At commencement, the Company identified several potential performance obligations within the Moderna License Agreement, including research and development services on research targets, option rights held by Moderna, a non-exclusive royalty-free license to use the Company’s intellectual property to conduct research and development activities and participation on the joint steering committee (JSC). The Company determined that there were 2 performance obligations comprised of (i) research and development services and (ii) option rights. For the research and development services, the stand-alone selling price was determined considering the expected passthrough costs and cost of the research and development services and a reasonable margin for the respective services. The material rights from the option rights were valued based on the estimated discount at which the option is priced and the Company’s estimated probability of the options’ exercise as of the time of the agreement. The transaction price allocated to research and development services is recognized as collaboration revenues as the research and development services are provided to satisfy the underlying obligation related to the research and development target. The transfer of control occurs over this period and, in management’s judgment, is the best measure of progress towards satisfying the performance obligation. The transaction price of $45.0 million allocated to the options rights, which are considered material rights, will be recognized in the period that Moderna elects to exercise or elects to not exercise its option right to license and commercialize the underlying research and development target. In June 2024, the Company received notice from Moderna that Moderna had nominated the first development candidate, an in vivo antigen receptor macrophage targeting Glypican-3 that is designed to treat solid tumor s, including hepatocellular carcinoma. Pursuant to the terms of the Moderna License Agreement, the nomination triggered a $2.0 million milestone payment from Moderna to the Company. As a result, the Company recorded a collaboration receivable and recognized collaboration revenue of $2.0 million. On July 3, 2024, the Company received the $2.0 million payment from Moderna. In addition, the Company reduced its $45.0 million deferred revenue liability associated with the option rights by recognizing $3.8 million in collaboration revenue, which represents a proportional reduction based on the 12 potential early stage targets. The Company included the $45.0 million up-front and nonrefundable payment and $73.9 million of variable consideration for expected research and development services to be performed during the five-year contract term, inclusive of passthrough costs, in the transaction price as of the outset of the arrangement. During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $9.2 million and $3.6 million, respectively, of collaboration revenues. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $12.6 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of collaboration revenues. Collaboration revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 include $3.8 million of deferred option rights revenue recognition and $2.0 million of milestones. The Company recognized $31.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively, of research and development services and option right collaboration revenues since inception of the Moderna License Agreement through June 30, 2024. The following table includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of June 30, 2024 (in thousands):
