Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Organization Organization
Summit Therapeutics Inc. (“we”, “Summit” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of patient-, physician-, caregiver- and societal-friendly medicinal therapies intended to improve quality of life, increase potential duration of life, and resolve serious unmet medical needs. The Company’s pipeline of product candidates is designed with the goal to become the patient-friendly, new-era standard-of-care medicines, in the therapeutic area of oncology.

The Company’s current lead development candidate is ivonescimab, a novel, potential first-in-class bispecific antibody intending to combine the effects of immunotherapy via a blockade of PD-1 with the anti-angiogenesis effects of an anti-VEGF compound into a single molecule. On December 5, 2022, the Company entered into the License Agreement with Akeso, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “Akeso”) pursuant to which the Company has in-licensed intellectual property rights related to ivonescimab (as amended, the “License Agreement”), as further described in Note 4. Through the License Agreement, the Company obtained the rights to develop and commercialize ivonescimab in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan. The License Agreement and transaction closed in January 2023 following customary waiting periods. On June 3, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the License Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with Akeso to expand its territories covered under the License Agreement to also include Latin America, including Mexico and all countries in Central America and South America, the Middle East and Africa (collectively, and as expanded, the “Licensed Territory“) . The Company’s operations are focused on the development of ivonescimab and other future activities, as the Company determines.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to current year presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued research and development expenses, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,079,586 and cash used in operating activities was $322,930. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,294,159, and cash and cash equivalents of $225,266 and short-term investments of $488,182. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company raised gross proceeds of $500,037 from a private placement and $106,498 from the Company’s at-the-market sales agreement, both described further in Note 13. With these recent financings, the Company has evaluated and concluded that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments provide sufficient cash to fund its operating cash needs for at least the next 12 months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Until the Company can generate substantial revenue and achieve profitability, the Company will need to raise additional capital to fund its ongoing operations and capital needs. The Company continues to evaluate options to further finance its operating
cash needs for its product candidates through a combination of some, or all, of the following: equity and debt offerings, collaborations, strategic alliances, grants and clinical trial support from government entities, philanthropic, non-government and not-for-profit organizations, and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. There is no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available when needed or that management of the Company will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain funding when required in the future, the Company could be required to delay, reduce, or eliminate research and development programs, product portfolio expansion, or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospects.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The significant accounting policies adopted by the Company in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of Summit Therapeutics Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, historical exchange rates for stockholders’ equity and weighted average exchange rates for operating results. Translation gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recorded realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction (loss) gain of ($610), $(97) and $613 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is included in other income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the diluted net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including potentially dilutive common shares. The dilutive effect of share options and warrants are determined under the treasury stock method using the average market price for the period. In addition, the assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the average unrecognized compensation expense of stock options and warrants that are in-the-money.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units at the time of acquisition or when there is a change in the reporting structure and bases that allocation on which reporting units will benefit from the acquired assets and liabilities. Reporting units are defined as operating segments or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. Typically acquisitions related to a single reporting unit do not require the allocation of goodwill to multiple reporting units. If the net assets obtained in an acquisition are assigned to multiple reporting units, the goodwill is distributed to the respective reporting units as part of the purchase price allocation process.

The Company assesses goodwill for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31 or more frequently when events and circumstances occur indicating that the recorded goodwill may be impaired. The Company regularly monitors current business conditions and other factors including, but not limited to, adverse industry or economic trends and lower projections of
profitability that may impact future operating results. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill requires significant judgment. In performing the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test, the Company is permitted to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. In performing the qualitative assessment, the Company considers certain events and circumstances specific to the reporting unit and to the entity as a whole, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and cost factors when evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company is also permitted to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative test. If the Company chooses to undertake the qualitative assessment and concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company would then proceed to the quantitative impairment test. In the quantitative assessment, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount, which includes goodwill. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no impairment loss exists. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, a goodwill impairment loss is measured and recorded.

The Company has operating leases for real estate. The Company does not have any finance leases. A contract is or contains a lease when the lessee has the right to control the use of an identified asset. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract, which is the date on which the terms of the contract are agreed to and the agreement creates enforceable rights and obligations. The lease term used to calculate the lease liability include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

At the lease commencement date, the Company measures and recognizes a lease liability and a right-of-use asset in the financial statements. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The right-of use asset is measured by taking the present value of future lease payments, plus any incremental direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. As most of the Companys leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term and the economic environment of the lease at the lease commencement date, which is then utilized to determine the present value of future lease payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, with variable lease payments recognized in the periods in which they are incurred.

The Company has existing lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component, and has allocated all of the contract consideration to the lease component only.

Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Acquired In-Process Research and Development

The Company may enter into agreements with collaboration partners for the development and commercialization of its products. These arrangements may include payments contingent on the occurrence of certain events such as development, regulatory or sales-based milestones. The Company considers the unique nature, terms and facts and circumstances of each transaction. The Company considers whether or not the assets acquired have an alternative future use.

The fair value associated with acquired in-process research and development which does not have an alternative future use is expensed and is recorded as research and development expense. Any development or commercial milestone payments are recognized when the achievement of the associated milestone becomes probable and will either be expensed or capitalized depending upon whether or not regulatory approval has been obtained.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred to discover, research and develop product candidates, including personnel expenses, stock-based compensation expense, allocated facility-related and depreciation expenses, third-party license fees and external costs of outside vendors engaged to conduct preclinical and clinical development activities and clinical trials as well as to manufacture clinical trial materials. Non-
refundable prepayments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are recorded as prepaid expenses. Such amounts are recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed, or until it is no longer expected that the goods will be delivered, or the services rendered. Milestone and other payments made to third-parties with respect to in-process research and development, in accordance with the Company’s license, acquisition and other similar agreements are expensed when determined to be probable and estimable.

The Company has entered into various research and development contracts with other companies. These agreements are generally cancellable, and related payments are recorded as research and development expenses as incurred. The Company records accruals for estimated ongoing research and development costs or prepaid expenses where the payments made exceed the estimated costs. These amounts are determined based on the estimated costs to complete each study or activity, the estimation of the current stage of completion and the invoices received, as well as predetermined milestones which are not reflective of the current stage of development for prepaid expenses. Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates. In all cases, the full cost of each study or activity is expensed by the time the final report or where applicable, product, has been received. The Company’s historical estimates have not been materially different from the actual costs.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock option awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards. Additionally, the Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the estimated fair value on the date of grant related to awards with market-based service conditions. The fair value is recognized as expense, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award, on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award when the only condition to vesting is continued service. If vesting is subject to a market or performance condition, recognition is based on the derived service period of the award. Expense for awards with performance conditions is estimated and adjusted on a quarterly basis based upon the assessment of the probability that the performance condition will be met. Use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires management to apply judgment under subjective assumptions. These assumptions include:
Expected term—The expected term of stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses the simplified method for estimating the expected term as provided by the SEC. The simplified method calculates the expected term as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the options.
Expected volatility—The expected volatility is calculated based on historical volatility of the Companys share price.
Risk-free interest rate—The risk-free rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury instruments, the terms of which were consistent with the expected term of the Company’s stock options.
Expected dividend—The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has not paid and does not intend to pay dividends.

The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair value of Performance and Market-based Stock Options at the date of grant which utilizes multiple input variables to estimate the probability that the market condition will be achieved. Key assumptions used in the model include the risk-free interest rate, which reflects the US Treasury Constant Maturity Yield with a term commensurate with the contractual term of the award, and stock price volatility, which is derived based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock.

The Company estimates expected forfeitures at the time of grant instead of accounting for forfeitures as they occur. Stock option awards have been granted at fair value to non-employees in connection with research and consulting services provided to the Company. Equity awards generally vest over terms of 3 or 4 years.

The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Tax laws may require items to be included in tax filings at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. A current asset or liability is recognized
for the estimated taxes receivable or payable for the current year. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes are initially recognized at enacted tax rates in force at the time of initial recognition and are subsequently adjusted for any enacted changes in tax rates and tax laws. Subsequent changes to deferred taxes originally recognized in equity are recognized in income. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets in excess of its deferred tax liabilities, as the deferred tax liabilities represent future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. The Company records interest and penalties related to income tax matters as part of income tax expense.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments. The Company’s cash is comprised of short-term cash deposits at a variety of financial institutions which the Company believes are of high credit ratings in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts. Cash balances maintained during the year have been principally held with U.S.-based and U.K.-based banks. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships.

The Company relies, and expects to continue to rely, on a number of vendors to conduct its clinical trials and preclinical studies, manufacture drug product and supply clinical trial and preclinical study materials for its development programs. These programs could be adversely affected by a significant interruption in these services or the availability of materials.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with the provisions of fair value accounting, a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability and defines fair value based on the exit price model.

The fair value measurement guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2
Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments or securities or derivative contracts that are valued using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company categorizes such assets and liabilities based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset.
Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers only those investments that are highly liquid, readily convertible to cash and that mature within 90 days or less from date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2025, cash equivalents were comprised of money market funds and U.S. treasury securities. As of December 31, 2024, cash equivalents were comprised of money market funds.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts which are legally restricted to withdrawal or usage and is presented in the consolidated balance sheet as restricted cash. As of December 31, 2025 the Company has $316 of restricted cash associated with an irrevocable letter of credit required by the landlord to enter into the lease for Company’s corporate office.

The Company’s total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances were as follows:
Year Ended December 31,
202520242023
Cash and cash equivalents$225,266 $104,862 $71,425 
Restricted cash316 325 — 
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash$225,582 $105,187 $71,425 

Short-term Investments

Short-term investments consist of marketable securities with original maturities greater than ninety days from the date of acquisition. The Company classifies marketable securities with original maturities of greater than 90 days and less than one year as short-term, based on the liquid nature of the marketable securities and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. The Company considers its investment portfolio of marketable securities as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices or other observable inputs. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis and are included in other income, net. Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums are also recorded in other income, net.

When the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset, an estimate of expected credit losses is made. This estimate is limited to the amount by which fair value is less than amortized cost. The credit-related impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and the remaining impairment amount and unrealized gains are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Credit losses are recognized through the use of an allowance for credit losses account and subsequent improvements in expected credit losses are recognized as a reversal of the allowance account. If the Company has the intent to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis the allowance for credit loss is written off and the excess of the amortized cost basis of the asset over its fair value is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and allows for adoption on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025 using a retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU-2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures. The guidance is to be applied prospectively, with the option for retrospective application and is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Narrow-Scope Improvements”, which is intended to improve the navigability of the guidance in ASC 270 and clarify when the guidance is applicable. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other recent authoritative guidance issued by the FASB (including technical corrections to the FASB ASC), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Akeso License and Collaboration Agreement Akeso License and Collaboration Agreement
On December 5, 2022, the Company entered into the License Agreement with Akeso pursuant to which the Company is in-licensing its breakthrough bispecific antibody, ivonescimab. The License Agreement and transaction closed in January 2023 following customary waiting periods.
Ivonescimab, known as AK112 in China and Australia, and also as SMT112 in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan, is a novel, potential first-in-class bispecific antibody intending to combine the effect of immunotherapy via a blockade of PD-1 with the anti-angiogenesis effects of an anti-VEGF into a single molecule. Ivonescimab was engineered to bring two well established oncology targeted mechanisms together. Ivonescimab is currently in clinical development and, pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, Summit will design and conduct the clinical trial activities to support regulatory filings in the Licensed Territory that Summit will submit.

Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, Summit will have final decision making authority with respect to clinical development strategy and execution in the Licensed Territory. For co-joined studies in which both Summit and Akeso participate, mutual agreement is required for material decisions; Summit retains the exclusive decision making with respect to participating in, and continuing its participation in, co-joined studies. Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, Summit will have final decision-making authority with respect to commercial strategy, pricing and reimbursement and other commercialization matters in the Licensed Territory. In connection with the License Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase a certain portion of drug substance and/or drug product for clinical and commercial supply and to enter into a supply agreement with Akeso. Summit is not assuming any liabilities (including contingent liabilities), acquiring any physical assets or trade names, or hiring or acquiring any employees from Akeso in connection with the License Agreement. Through the License Agreement, the Company obtained the rights to develop and commercialize ivonescimab in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Japan.

In exchange for the rights obtained, the Company made an upfront payment of $500,000 to Akeso, of which $274,900 was paid in cash and, pursuant to the License Agreement and Issuance Agreement, Akeso elected to receive 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“common stock”) in lieu of $25,100 in cash. The remaining $200,000 amount of the upfront payment was paid on March 6, 2023.

Effective June 3, 2024, the Company and Akeso entered into the Second Amendment to the License Agreement to expand the Company’s territories covered under the License Agreement to include the Latin America, Middle East and Africa regions. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Company paid an upfront payment to Akeso of $15,000 in the third quarter of 2024. Akeso will also be eligible to receive up to an additional $55,000 upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones. Except as specifically modified by the Second Amendment, the terms and conditions of the License Agreement remain in full force and effect.

The Company has accounted for the License Agreement and Second Amendment to acquire the rights to develop and commercialize ivonescimab as the acquisition of an asset. All of the consideration relates to ivonescimab and technological feasibility of the asset has not yet been established since ivonescimab is in clinical development. As such, the Company has expensed the consideration as acquired in-process research and development upon closing of the transaction in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Acquired in-process research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 was nil. Acquired in-process research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $15,007 which is comprised of the upfront payment and immaterial transaction costs. For the year ended December 31, 2023, acquired in-process research and development expense totaled $520,915 pursuant to the License Agreement, which was comprised of the $474,900 paid in cash, the fair value of the 10,000,000 shares of common stock on the date of closing the transaction of $45,900, and $115 of direct transactions costs incurred.

In addition to the payments already made to Akeso, under the License Agreement and Second Amendment, there are additional potential milestone payments of up to $4,555,000, as Akeso will be eligible to receive regulatory milestones of up to $1,050,000 and commercial milestones of up to $3,505,000. In addition, Akeso will be eligible to receive low double-digit royalties on net sales.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Tax Income Tax 
The Company is primarily subject to corporation taxes in the U.S. and the U.K. The calculation of the Company’s tax provision involves the application of both U.S. and U.K. tax law and requires judgment and estimates. The Company has also assessed the applicability of the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Pillar 2 rules, which establish a global minimum tax rate. Based on the Company’s current financial position and revenue it does not meet the thresholds for Pillar 2 to apply. Therefore, the provisions and requirements under Pillar 2 do not impact our financial statements for the reporting period.

The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Tax laws may require items to be included in tax filings at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. A current asset or liability is recognized for the estimated taxes receivable or payable for the current year.

Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes are initially recognized at enacted tax rates in force at the time of initial recognition and are subsequently adjusted for any enacted changes in tax rates and tax laws. Subsequent changes to deferred taxes originally recognized in equity are recognized in income.

Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets in excess of its deferred tax liabilities, as the deferred tax liabilities represent future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. The Company records interest and penalties related to income tax matters as part of income tax expense.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions taken in its tax filings by applying a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination by the taxing authorities having full knowledge of the facts and applicable tax rules. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed as the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of benefits that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves, or unrecognized tax benefits, that are considered appropriate, as well as the related net interest and penalties.

Due to the Company’s full valuation allowance, the unrecognized tax benefits are not expected to materially impact the Company’s effective tax rate when recognized or significantly increase or decrease in the next 12 months. In addition, the
Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of its income tax provision. However, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits because any potential disallowance would not result in current tax but only result in a reduction to the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards.

Deferred Income Taxes

The Company has not recognized a current or deferred provision for federal, state or non-United States income taxes in either of the years ending December 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes.

For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $133,578 and $95,925, respectively.

The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon its ability to realize its deferred tax assets, which are comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards, research and development credits, stock-based compensation expense, and research and development costs capitalized for tax purposes. Management has considered the Company’s history of cumulative net losses in each taxing jurisdiction, estimated future taxable income, as well as prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and has concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the tax benefits in each
jurisdiction. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established against these net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company reevaluates the positive and negative evidence at each reporting period.

The changes in the valuation allowance during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards and capitalized research and development expenses.

The change in the valuation allowance was as follows:
Year Ended December 31,
202520242023
Valuation allowance as of beginning of year$(95,588)$(84,751)$(64,016)

Valuation allowance as of end of year$(133,161)$(95,588)$(84,751)

Net Operating Loss and Tax Credit Carryforwards

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had U.S. Federal gross operating loss carryforwards of approximately $93,210 and $44,270, respectively, which may be available to offset future income tax liabilities. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) will generally allow losses incurred after 2017 to be carried over indefinitely but generally limits the net operating loss deduction to the lesser of the net operating loss carryover or 80% of a corporation’s taxable income (subject to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). In addition, the Company has approximately $21,335 in U.S. State gross loss carryforwards which expire through various dates through 2044.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an estimated U.S. federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $15,565 and $5,002, respectively, which may be available to offset future tax liabilities, and each begin to expire in 2041 and 2037, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had U.K. gross operating loss carryforwards of approximately $211,096 and $198,653 respectively, which may be available to offset future income tax liabilities. To the extent that U.K. taxable profits exceed £5,000 in each year, the loss available to utilize against profits in excess of £5,000 will be restricted to 50%. The U.K. loss carryforwards do not lapse and therefore, the full amount will be relieved over time provided there are sufficient profits against which the losses can be utilized.

Utilization of the U.S. net operating loss carryforwards and research and development tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 due to ownership changes that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. In general, an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, results from transactions increasing the ownership of certain shareholders or public groups in the stock of a corporation by more than 50% over a three-year period. The Company has not completed a study to assess whether a change of ownership has occurred, or whether there have been multiple ownership changes since its formation. Any limitation may result in the loss of a portion of the net operating loss carryforwards or research and development tax credit carryforwards before utilization.

U.K. tax losses are subject to additional restrictions where there is a change in ownership in the business and certain other conditions are met. An ownership change of a U.K. tax resident company would occur where (directly or indirectly) a single person acquires more than half of the ordinary share capital of a company, or two or more persons each acquire a holding of at least 5% of the ordinary share capital of a company and these holdings together amount to more than half the ordinary share capital of a company. Where a change in ownership has occurred, and within three years prior to that change in ownership and five years afterwards, there is a major change in the nature and conduct of trade of that company or the trade of that business becomes small or negligible, any losses carried forward will be extinguished from the point of the change in ownership. In addition, losses accrued subsequent to April 1, 2017 will be extinguished on a change of ownership when there is a major change in the nature or conduct of a company’s business, or where there is a major change in the scale of that business, or a company ceases to carry on a particular trade or business. The Company has not completed a study to assess whether a change of ownership has occurred since its formation, or whether there has been a major change in the Companys business that would
restrict the U.K. tax losses. Any limitation may result in the loss of a portion of the net operating loss carryforwards before utilization.

Deemed U.S. Income Inclusions

The TCJA created a requirement that US corporations include in income earnings of certain controlled foreign corporations under the global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) regime. Pursuant to the FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 740 No.5. Accounting for Global Intangible Low-taxed Income, the Company is allowed to make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or to provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as period expense only. The Company has elected to account for GILTI in the year the tax is incurred and include the current tax impact of GILTI in the effective tax rate. Given the Company’s loss position in the U.S. and the valuation allowance recorded against its U.S. net deferred tax assets, these provisions have not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

Basic net loss per share$(1.44)$(0.31)$(0.99)
Diluted net loss per share$(1.44)$(0.31)$(0.99)

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the diluted net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including potentially dilutive common shares. Since the Company was in a loss position for all periods presented, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share for all periods, as the inclusion of all potential common share equivalents outstanding would have been antidilutive.

Because the 2023 Rights Offering (see Note 13) exercise price of $1.05 per share was less than the closing price of $1.82 per share on March 1, 2023, the expiration, the Company has retroactively adjusted earnings per share and the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the bonus element for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share of common stock for the periods presented because their effect would have been anti-dilutive:

In December 2017, the Company expanded its activities in the field of infectious diseases with the acquisition of Discuva Limited, a privately held United Kingdom-based company. Through this acquisition, the Company obtained a bacterial genetics platform and a suite of software-based technologies, which facilitates the discovery and development of new mechanism antibiotics. This resulted in the recognition of goodwill of £1.5 million, which is translated into U.S. dollars at each reporting period.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, goodwill was $2,001 and $1,864, respectively. Changes year over year are the result of changes in foreign currency.

The Company assesses goodwill for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31 or more frequently when events and circumstances occur indicating that recorded goodwill may be impaired. As of December 31, 2025, the Company performed its annual impairment assessment of goodwill and determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount.

December 2022 Promissory Notes

On December 6, 2022, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), with Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to each of Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $520,000. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh unsecured promissory notes in the amount of $400,000 (the “Duggan February Note”) and $20,000 (the “Zanganeh Note”), respectively, which matured and became due on February 15, 2023 and an unsecured promissory note to Mr. Duggan in the amount of $100,000 (the “Duggan September Note” and together with the Duggan February Note and the Zanganeh Note, the “December 2022 Notes”), which was originally due on September 15, 2023. The maturity dates of the December 2022 Notes could have been extended one or more times at the Company’s election, but in no event to a date later than September 6, 2024. In addition, if the Company consummated a public offering, then upon the later to occur of (i) five business days after the Company receives the net cash proceeds therefrom or (ii) May 15, 2023, the Duggan February Note and the Zanganeh Note were to be prepaid by an amount equal to the lesser of (a) 100% of the amount of the net proceeds of such offering and (b) the outstanding principal amount on such Notes.

On January 19, 2023, the Company provided notice to extend the term of the Duggan February Note and Duggan September Note to a maturity date of September 6, 2024. Furthermore, on January 19, 2023, the Company and Mr. Duggan rectified the Duggan February Note and Duggan September Note in order to correctly reflect the parties’ intent that the Company may only prepay (i) the Duggan February Note following the completion of a public rights offering to be conducted by Summit in the approximate amount of $500,000, or a similar capital raise, in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the net proceeds of the rights offering or such capital raise or (y) the full amount outstanding of the Duggan February Note, and (ii) Duggan September Note following the completion of a capital raising transaction subsequent to the rights offering in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the net proceeds of such capital raise or (B) the full amount outstanding of the Duggan September Note. Following the issuance of the two new Promissory Notes (the “Revised Duggan February Note” and the “Revised Duggan September Note”, respectively), the Duggan February Note and Duggan September Note were marked as “cancelled” on their face and replaced in their entirety by the Revised Duggan February Note and the Revised Duggan September Note (together with the Zanganeh Note, the “Notes”).

On February 15, 2023, the $20,000 Zanganeh Note matured and the Company repaid the outstanding principal balance. In connection with the closing of the rights offering in 2023 (the “2023 Rights Offering”), the $400,000 Revised Duggan February Note matured and became due, and the Company repaid all principal and accrued interest thereunder using a combination of a portion of the cash proceeds from the 2023 Rights Offering and the extinguishment of a portion of the amount due equal to the subscription price of shares subscribed by Mr. Duggan in the 2023 Rights Offering.
The Notes accrued interest at an initial rate of 7.5%. All interest on the Notes was paid on the date of signing for the period through February 15, 2023. Such prepaid interest was paid in a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the dollar amount of such prepaid interest, divided by $0.7913 (the consolidated closing bid price immediately preceding the time the Company entered into the Note Purchase Agreement, plus $0.01), which was 9,720,291 shares. For all applicable periods following February 15, 2023, interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Notes at the U.S. prime interest rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, plus 50 basis points, as adjusted monthly, for three months immediately following February 15, 2023, and thereafter at the U.S. prime rate plus 300 basis points, as adjusted monthly. Accrued interest was paid in cash, quarterly in arrears, on each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. Debt issuance costs associated with the Notes were $44 and were capitalized as part of the carrying value of the promissory notes payable to related parties.

On February 17, 2024, the Revised Duggan February Note was amended to extend the maturity date from September 6, 2024 to April 1, 2025. For all applicable periods commencing February 17, 2024, interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance at the greater of 12% or the U.S. prime interest rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 350 basis points, as adjusted monthly, and compounded quarterly. Interest was paid upon maturity of the loan. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate of the Revised Duggan February Note and Zanganeh Note was 8.9% and the effective interest rate of the Revised Duggan September Note was 11.3%.

On September 16, 2024, the Company used some of the proceeds raised from the September 2024 Private Placement (see Note 13 for further details) to repay $75,500 in principal on the Revised Duggan September Note. On October 1, 2024, the Company repaid the remaining outstanding balance of the Revised Duggan September Note in full, resulting in principal payments of $24,500 and accrued cash interest of $7,305.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no debt. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred no interest expense. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred interest expense of $8,686 related to the Revised Duggan September Note.

2016 Long Term Incentive Plan

Upon the effectiveness of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), no additional grants will be made under the 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan, (the “2016 Plan”) and any outstanding awards continue with their original terms.

2020 Stock Award Plan

In September 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, which became effective on September 21, 2020. The 2020 plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards.

A total of 8,000,000 shares of Common Stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan. Additionally, up to 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock, including RSUs can be added to the 2020 Plan for future issuance from options that expire, lapse or are terminated from the 2016 Plan or any other predecessor plans. The number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2020 Plan will automatically increase on each January 1, beginning in 2021 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including, the fiscal year ending December 31, 2030, equal to the lesser of (i) 6,400,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) 4% of the common shares outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year and (iii) an amount as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.

As of December 31, 2025, there are 2,643,200 shares available to be issued under the 2020 Plan. The Company currently grants stock options to employees and directors under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and formerly, the Company granted stock options under the 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The 2020 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The 2020 Plan is intended to attract and retain employees and directors and provide an incentive for these individuals to assist the Company to achieve long-range performance goals and to enable these individuals to participate in the long-term growth of the Company.

Based on the provisions of the 2020 Plan, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan increased by 6,400,000 shares on January 1, 2025. On September 18, 2025, the Board approved an increase of 8,000,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan (the “Incremental Pool”), subject to the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares voting at the Company’s stockholder meeting. As of December 31, 2025, there are 3,082,075 shares available to be issued under the Incremental Pool. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have treated the grant date of such stock options as the date Board approval was obtained.

On May 3, 2024, the Board adopted the 2024 Inducement Pool (the “Inducement Pool”), which mirrors the terms of the 2020 Plan, with a total of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Inducement Pool. Effective January 22, 2025, the number of shares of common stock available under the Inducement Pool increased by 2,000,000 shares. The Inducement Pool provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options and was approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board without stockholder approval pursuant to Rule 5635(c)(4) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

The Inducement Pool is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. In accordance with Rule 5635(c)(4) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, non-qualified stock options under the Inducement Pool may only be made to an employee who has not previously been an employee of the Company or member of the Board (or any parent or subsidiary of the Company), if he or she is granted such non-qualified stock options in connection with his or her commencement of employment with the Company or a subsidiary and such grant is an inducement material to his or her entering into employment with the Company or such subsidiary. As of December 31, 2025, there were 1,936,452 shares available for grant under the Inducement Pool.
2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2020 ESPP”) was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the Company’s shareholders on July 17, 2020 and approved by the predecessor company shareholders on August 19, 2020 and is qualified under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. The 2020 ESPP initially authorized the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to participating employees. The number of common shares that may be issued under the 2020 ESPP automatically increases on each fiscal year commencing January 1, 2021 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including the fiscal year commencing on, January 1, 2030 equal to the lesser of (i) 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) 1% of the common shares outstanding on such date and (iii) an amount as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2025, there were 1,743,682 shares available to be issued under the 2020 ESPP.

The 2020 ESPP is comprised of purchase periods of six months in duration and commence immediately preceding the end of the previous offering period, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

Under the 2020 ESPP, eligible employees can purchase shares of Common Stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their compensation received during the plan period or such shorter period during which deductions from payroll are made, up to a defined maximum amount. The option price is determined based on the lesser of the closing price of Common Stock on (i) the first business day of the plan period or (ii) the exercise date, or shall be based solely on the closing price of the Common Stock on the exercise date; provided that such option price shall be at least 85% of the applicable closing price. In the absence of a determination by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee, the option price is 85% of the lesser of the closing price of the Common Stock on (i) the first business day of the plan period or (ii) the exercise date.

The closing price is the (a) the closing price (for the primary trading session) on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or (b) the average of the closing bid and asked prices in the over-the-counter-market, whichever is applicable, as published in the Wall Street Journal or another source selected by the Board or the Committee.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, 139,459 and 353,578 shares, respectively, were issued under the 2020 ESPP Plan.

Stock Options

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Stock options granted under the 2016 and 2020 Plans generally vest over three or four years and expire after ten years. This valuation methodology utilizes several key assumptions as highlighted below.

The assumptions used in the Company’s valuation are summarized as follows, presented on a weighted average basis:
Year Ended December 31,

Exercisable at December 31, 202564,834,314$2.327.4$983,902 

* The stock option activity in the table above includes performance-based options outstanding as of December 31, 2024 of 48,220,320 of which 39,013,976 options were unvested and converted to time-based vesting. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the company granted 5,475,000 performance-based options which were modified to time-based vesting during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

During the second quarter of 2025, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a modification to the Company's outstanding unvested performance-based stock option awards for certain employees and executives that will require only the service-based vesting requirements to continue to be satisfied in order to become fully vested, subject to employee consent. The Company accounted for this change as a Type III modification (improbable-to-probable) in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (ASC 718). As a result, 44,488,976 options were valued on the modification date. The Company is recognizing the newly assessed measurement date fair value of the awards as compensation expense over the remaining vesting period. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized expense of $650,959 associated with the modification. As of December 31, 2025, the unrecognized compensation cost associated with the modification was $214,295 and is expected to be expensed over a weighted-average recognition period of approximately 1.6 years.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $17.10, $3.40 and $1.41, per share, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $15,212, $863, and $474, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those stock options that had exercise prices lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

As of December 31, 2025, there was $345,387 total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock option grants. The unvested amount is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years.

December 2022 Promissory Notes

On December 6, 2022, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), with Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to each of Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh unsecured promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $520,000. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh unsecured promissory notes in the amount of $400,000 (the “Duggan February Note”) and $20,000 (the “Zanganeh Note”), respectively, which matured and became due on February 15, 2023 and an unsecured promissory note to Mr. Duggan in the amount of $100,000 (the “Duggan September Note” and together with the Duggan February Note and the Zanganeh Note, the “December 2022 Notes”), which was originally due on September 15, 2023. The maturity dates of the December 2022 Notes could have been extended one or more times at the Company’s election, but in no event to a date later than September 6, 2024. In addition, if the Company consummated a public offering, then upon the later to occur of (i) five business days after the Company receives the net cash proceeds therefrom or (ii) May 15, 2023, the Duggan February Note and the Zanganeh Note were to be prepaid by an amount equal to the lesser of (a) 100% of the amount of the net proceeds of such offering and (b) the outstanding principal amount on such Notes.

On January 19, 2023, the Company provided notice to extend the term of the Duggan February Note and Duggan September Note to a maturity date of September 6, 2024. Furthermore, on January 19, 2023, the Company and Mr. Duggan rectified the Duggan February Note and Duggan September Note in order to correctly reflect the parties’ intent that the Company may only prepay (i) the Duggan February Note following the completion of a public rights offering to be conducted by Summit in the approximate amount of $500,000, or a similar capital raise, in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the net proceeds of the rights offering or such capital raise or (y) the full amount outstanding of the Duggan February Note, and (ii) Duggan September Note following the completion of a capital raising transaction subsequent to the rights offering in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the net proceeds of such capital raise or (B) the full amount outstanding of the Duggan September Note. Following the issuance of the two new Promissory Notes (the “Revised Duggan February Note” and the “Revised Duggan September Note”, respectively), the Duggan February Note and Duggan September Note were marked as “cancelled” on their face and replaced in their entirety by the Revised Duggan February Note and the Revised Duggan September Note (together with the Zanganeh Note, the “Notes”).

On February 15, 2023, the $20,000 Zanganeh Note matured and the Company repaid the outstanding principal balance. In connection with the closing of the rights offering in 2023 (the “2023 Rights Offering”), the $400,000 Revised Duggan February Note matured and became due, and the Company repaid all principal and accrued interest thereunder using a combination of a portion of the cash proceeds from the 2023 Rights Offering and the extinguishment of a portion of the amount due equal to the subscription price of shares subscribed by Mr. Duggan in the 2023 Rights Offering.
The Notes accrued interest at an initial rate of 7.5%. All interest on the Notes was paid on the date of signing for the period through February 15, 2023. Such prepaid interest was paid in a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the dollar amount of such prepaid interest, divided by $0.7913 (the consolidated closing bid price immediately preceding the time the Company entered into the Note Purchase Agreement, plus $0.01), which was 9,720,291 shares. For all applicable periods following February 15, 2023, interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Notes at the U.S. prime interest rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, plus 50 basis points, as adjusted monthly, for three months immediately following February 15, 2023, and thereafter at the U.S. prime rate plus 300 basis points, as adjusted monthly. Accrued interest was paid in cash, quarterly in arrears, on each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. Debt issuance costs associated with the Notes were $44 and were capitalized as part of the carrying value of the promissory notes payable to related parties.

On February 17, 2024, the Revised Duggan February Note was amended to extend the maturity date from September 6, 2024 to April 1, 2025. For all applicable periods commencing February 17, 2024, interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance at the greater of 12% or the U.S. prime interest rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 350 basis points, as adjusted monthly, and compounded quarterly. Interest was paid upon maturity of the loan. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense using an effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate of the Revised Duggan February Note and Zanganeh Note was 8.9% and the effective interest rate of the Revised Duggan September Note was 11.3%.

On September 16, 2024, the Company used some of the proceeds raised from the September 2024 Private Placement (see Note 13 for further details) to repay $75,500 in principal on the Revised Duggan September Note. On October 1, 2024, the Company repaid the remaining outstanding balance of the Revised Duggan September Note in full, resulting in principal payments of $24,500 and accrued cash interest of $7,305.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no debt. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred no interest expense. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred interest expense of $8,686 related to the Revised Duggan September Note.

Legal Proceedings
Litigation Relating to the December 2022 Notes Entered into in Connection with the License Agreement

On March 17, 2025, Rainaldi Revocable Trust, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a derivative lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery against certain of the Company’s current and former directors and the Company, solely as a nominal defendant, concerning the December 2022 Notes entered into by the Company, Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh in connection with the License Agreement. The suit asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment and seeks, among other things, unspecified damages, rescission of the shares that Mr. Duggan and Dr. Zanganeh received as part of prepaid interest payments under the December 2022 Notes, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the complaint was filed on May 16, 2025. Plaintiff filed the Motion to Certify certain constitutional questions to the Delaware Supreme Court on May 29, 2025. Defendants agreed to a stipulation staying briefing on the Motion to Certify and the Motion to Dismiss pending the Delaware Supreme Court’s decision in another case involving substantially the same constitutional questions. On June 18, 2025, the Court granted such stipulation. Defendants believe that Plaintiff's allegations are without merit and plan to vigorously defend against its claims

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]
We have implemented a risk-based approach to identify and assess the cybersecurity threats that could affect our business and information systems. We use recognized commercially reasonable measures, tools and methodologies designed to manage cybersecurity risk that are tested on a regular cadence. We also monitor and evaluate our cybersecurity posture on an ongoing basis through regular vulnerability scans, penetration tests and third-party reviews. We rely on third-party service providers to provide the systems required to effectively run our clinical trials and endeavor to require third-party service providers that have access to personal, confidential or proprietary information to implement and maintain cybersecurity practices. Specific controls that are used in appropriate portions of our environment include endpoint threat detection and response, identity and access management, privileged access management, logging and monitoring involving the use of security information and event management, multi-factor authentication, firewalls and intrusion detection and prevention, and vulnerability and patch management. Our cybersecurity risk management processes are integrated into our enterprise risk management program.

To manage our material risks from cybersecurity threats and to protect against, detect, and prepare to respond to cybersecurity incidents, we endeavor to:

Monitor emerging data protection laws and implement changes to our processes to comply;
Conduct annual cybersecurity management and incident training for employees that process sensitive data;
Conduct onboarding and cybersecurity training for all employees on an ongoing basis;
Conduct regular phishing email simulations for all employees; and
Carry cybersecurity risk insurance meant to provide protection against the potential losses arising from a cybersecurity incident.

In addition, we engage several third-party consultants in connection with our risk assessment and risk management, and we have established separate processes and procedures to oversee and identify cybersecurity risks associated with third parties. All third parties involved in our cybersecurity risk assessments and risk management are required to provide reports designed to allow us to monitor and assess such third parties’ security controls.

Our incident response plan coordinates the activities that we and our third-party cybersecurity provider take to respond and recover from cybersecurity incidents, which include processes to triage, assess severity, investigate, escalate, contain, and remediate an incident, as well as to comply with legal obligations and attempt to mitigate brand and reputational damage. We have business continuity plans that we periodically review and update in line with our evolving applications architecture.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2025
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
Reclassification Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued research and development expenses, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Principles of Consolidation
Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of Summit Therapeutics Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, historical exchange rates for stockholders’ equity and weighted average exchange rates for operating results. Translation gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Net Loss Per Share
Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the diluted net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including potentially dilutive common shares. The dilutive effect of share options and warrants are determined under the treasury stock method using the average market price for the period. In addition, the assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the average unrecognized compensation expense of stock options and warrants that are in-the-money.
Goodwill
Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units at the time of acquisition or when there is a change in the reporting structure and bases that allocation on which reporting units will benefit from the acquired assets and liabilities. Reporting units are defined as operating segments or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. Typically acquisitions related to a single reporting unit do not require the allocation of goodwill to multiple reporting units. If the net assets obtained in an acquisition are assigned to multiple reporting units, the goodwill is distributed to the respective reporting units as part of the purchase price allocation process.

The Company assesses goodwill for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31 or more frequently when events and circumstances occur indicating that the recorded goodwill may be impaired. The Company regularly monitors current business conditions and other factors including, but not limited to, adverse industry or economic trends and lower projections of
profitability that may impact future operating results. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill requires significant judgment. In performing the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test, the Company is permitted to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. In performing the qualitative assessment, the Company considers certain events and circumstances specific to the reporting unit and to the entity as a whole, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance and cost factors when evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company is also permitted to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative test. If the Company chooses to undertake the qualitative assessment and concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company would then proceed to the quantitative impairment test. In the quantitative assessment, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount, which includes goodwill. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no impairment loss exists. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, a goodwill impairment loss is measured and recorded.
Leases
Leases

The Company has operating leases for real estate. The Company does not have any finance leases. A contract is or contains a lease when the lessee has the right to control the use of an identified asset. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract, which is the date on which the terms of the contract are agreed to and the agreement creates enforceable rights and obligations. The lease term used to calculate the lease liability include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

At the lease commencement date, the Company measures and recognizes a lease liability and a right-of-use asset in the financial statements. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The right-of use asset is measured by taking the present value of future lease payments, plus any incremental direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. As most of the Companys leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term and the economic environment of the lease at the lease commencement date, which is then utilized to determine the present value of future lease payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, with variable lease payments recognized in the periods in which they are incurred.

The Company has existing lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component, and has allocated all of the contract consideration to the lease component only.

Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Acquired In-Process Research and Development
Acquired In-Process Research and Development

The Company may enter into agreements with collaboration partners for the development and commercialization of its products. These arrangements may include payments contingent on the occurrence of certain events such as development, regulatory or sales-based milestones. The Company considers the unique nature, terms and facts and circumstances of each transaction. The Company considers whether or not the assets acquired have an alternative future use.
The fair value associated with acquired in-process research and development which does not have an alternative future use is expensed and is recorded as research and development expense. Any development or commercial milestone payments are recognized when the achievement of the associated milestone becomes probable and will either be expensed or capitalized depending upon whether or not regulatory approval has been obtained.
Research and Development Costs
Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred to discover, research and develop product candidates, including personnel expenses, stock-based compensation expense, allocated facility-related and depreciation expenses, third-party license fees and external costs of outside vendors engaged to conduct preclinical and clinical development activities and clinical trials as well as to manufacture clinical trial materials. Non-
refundable prepayments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are recorded as prepaid expenses. Such amounts are recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed, or until it is no longer expected that the goods will be delivered, or the services rendered. Milestone and other payments made to third-parties with respect to in-process research and development, in accordance with the Company’s license, acquisition and other similar agreements are expensed when determined to be probable and estimable.

The Company has entered into various research and development contracts with other companies. These agreements are generally cancellable, and related payments are recorded as research and development expenses as incurred. The Company records accruals for estimated ongoing research and development costs or prepaid expenses where the payments made exceed the estimated costs. These amounts are determined based on the estimated costs to complete each study or activity, the estimation of the current stage of completion and the invoices received, as well as predetermined milestones which are not reflective of the current stage of development for prepaid expenses. Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates. In all cases, the full cost of each study or activity is expensed by the time the final report or where applicable, product, has been received. The Company’s historical estimates have not been materially different from the actual costs.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock option awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards. Additionally, the Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the estimated fair value on the date of grant related to awards with market-based service conditions. The fair value is recognized as expense, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award, on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award when the only condition to vesting is continued service. If vesting is subject to a market or performance condition, recognition is based on the derived service period of the award. Expense for awards with performance conditions is estimated and adjusted on a quarterly basis based upon the assessment of the probability that the performance condition will be met. Use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires management to apply judgment under subjective assumptions. These assumptions include:
Expected term—The expected term of stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses the simplified method for estimating the expected term as provided by the SEC. The simplified method calculates the expected term as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the options.
Expected volatility—The expected volatility is calculated based on historical volatility of the Companys share price.
Risk-free interest rate—The risk-free rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury instruments, the terms of which were consistent with the expected term of the Company’s stock options.
Expected dividend—The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has not paid and does not intend to pay dividends.

The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair value of Performance and Market-based Stock Options at the date of grant which utilizes multiple input variables to estimate the probability that the market condition will be achieved. Key assumptions used in the model include the risk-free interest rate, which reflects the US Treasury Constant Maturity Yield with a term commensurate with the contractual term of the award, and stock price volatility, which is derived based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock.

The Company estimates expected forfeitures at the time of grant instead of accounting for forfeitures as they occur. Stock option awards have been granted at fair value to non-employees in connection with research and consulting services provided to the Company. Equity awards generally vest over terms of 3 or 4 years.

The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Tax laws may require items to be included in tax filings at different times than the items are reflected in the financial statements. A current asset or liability is recognized
for the estimated taxes receivable or payable for the current year. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes are initially recognized at enacted tax rates in force at the time of initial recognition and are subsequently adjusted for any enacted changes in tax rates and tax laws. Subsequent changes to deferred taxes originally recognized in equity are recognized in income. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets in excess of its deferred tax liabilities, as the deferred tax liabilities represent future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. The Company records interest and penalties related to income tax matters as part of income tax expense.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties
Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments. The Company’s cash is comprised of short-term cash deposits at a variety of financial institutions which the Company believes are of high credit ratings in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts. Cash balances maintained during the year have been principally held with U.S.-based and U.K.-based banks. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships.

The Company relies, and expects to continue to rely, on a number of vendors to conduct its clinical trials and preclinical studies, manufacture drug product and supply clinical trial and preclinical study materials for its development programs. These programs could be adversely affected by a significant interruption in these services or the availability of materials.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with the provisions of fair value accounting, a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability and defines fair value based on the exit price model.

The fair value measurement guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2
Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments or securities or derivative contracts that are valued using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company categorizes such assets and liabilities based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers only those investments that are highly liquid, readily convertible to cash and that mature within 90 days or less from date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents amounts which are legally restricted to withdrawal or usage and is presented in the consolidated balance sheet as restricted cash.
Short-term Investments
Short-term Investments

Short-term investments consist of marketable securities with original maturities greater than ninety days from the date of acquisition. The Company classifies marketable securities with original maturities of greater than 90 days and less than one year as short-term, based on the liquid nature of the marketable securities and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. The Company considers its investment portfolio of marketable securities as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices or other observable inputs. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis and are included in other income, net. Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums are also recorded in other income, net.

When the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset, an estimate of expected credit losses is made. This estimate is limited to the amount by which fair value is less than amortized cost. The credit-related impairment amount is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and the remaining impairment amount and unrealized gains are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Credit losses are recognized through the use of an allowance for credit losses account and subsequent improvements in expected credit losses are recognized as a reversal of the allowance account. If the Company has the intent to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis the allowance for credit loss is written off and the excess of the amortized cost basis of the asset over its fair value is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and allows for adoption on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025 using a retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU-2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures. The guidance is to be applied prospectively, with the option for retrospective application and is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Narrow-Scope Improvements”, which is intended to improve the navigability of the guidance in ASC 270 and clarify when the guidance is applicable. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other recent authoritative guidance issued by the FASB (including technical corrections to the FASB ASC), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
