CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on our beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to us, but are subject to factors beyond our control. Forward-looking statements: reflect management’s current knowledge, assumptions, judgment and expectations regarding future performance or events; include all statements that are not historical facts; and can be identified by terms such as “accelerate,” “achieve,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “goal,” “believes,” “estimates,” “positions,” “predictive,” “projects,” “predicts,” “intends,” “potential,” “continue,” “seeks” and similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. In particular, forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report relate to, among other things:
•our ability to successfully commercialize Rezdiffra, our only approved product, for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (“MASH”) with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis);
•our ability to obtain and maintain full approval for Rezdiffra from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Commission;
•our ability to successfully, or in a timely manner, report positive results from our outcomes trials;
•our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval to expand Rezdiffra’s indication to a broader MASH patient population;
•our expectations regarding the degree of market acceptance of Rezdiffra by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the healthcare community, our ability to obtain and maintain adequate reimbursement from government and third-party payors for Rezdiffra or acceptable prices for Rezdiffra and Rezdiffra’s potential sector leadership;
•our ability to effectively scale our operations in Europe to successfully commercialize Rezdiffra;
•our possible or assumed future business strategies and plans (including potential ex-U.S. commercial or partnering opportunities) and potential growth opportunities and our ability to acquire or in-license new product candidates and technologies;
•our expectations related to clinical trials, including anticipated timing of receipt of data from our clinical trials, our ability to successfully conduct our current or any future clinical trials necessary for regulatory approval and our ability to delay certain research activities and related clinical expenses as necessary;
•our ability to establish and maintain an effective commercial organization, including sales and marketing representatives, and the ability of third parties on which we rely to manufacture sufficient quantities of Rezdiffra or any other future product candidate for our commercial or clinical needs;
•anticipated or estimated future results, including our future operating performance and financial position, estimates of our expenses and liquidity and our ability to raise additional capital as needed, our ability to achieve or maintain profitability, our ability to comply with the covenants included in our loan facility and our ability to comply with our obligations under our agreements related to Rezdiffra, including our license agreement with Hoffman-La-Roche; and
•the regulation of the healthcare industry, including potential pricing reform, and general economic conditions in the United States, Europe and globally, including the impact of tariffs and inflation, that may affect us, our suppliers, third-party service providers and potential partners.
These forward-looking statements reflect management’s current views with respect to future events and with respect to our business and future financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, those described under Part I, Item IA, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Other sections of this Quarterly Report may include additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements for
any reason, even if new information becomes available in the future. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosure we make in our reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Organization, Business, and Basis of Presentation
Organization and Business
Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company” or “Madrigal”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on delivering novel therapeutics for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (“MASH”), a serious liver disease with high unmet medical need that can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer, need for liver transplantation and premature mortality. MASH was previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). MASH is the leading cause of liver transplantation in women and the second leading cause of all liver transplantation in the United States, and the fastest-growing indication for liver transplantation in Europe. The Company’s medication, Rezdiffra (resmetirom), is a once-daily, oral, liver-directed thyroid hormone receptor beta (“THR-β”) agonist designed to target key underlying causes of MASH. In March 2024, Rezdiffra became the first therapy approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for patients with MASH and was commercially available in the United States beginning in April 2024. In August 2025, the European Commission (“EC”) approved Rezdiffra and the Company launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September 2025. Rezdiffra is the first and only medication approved by both the FDA and EC for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (F2 to F3 fibrosis). The Company is also evaluating Rezdiffra in patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis (consistent with F4c fibrosis) in its MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES trial, that, if successful, could expand the eligible patient population for Rezdiffra.
Basis of Presentation
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures included in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of such interim results. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that the Company will have for the full year ending December 31, 2025 or any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principle of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP and include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in
the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s).
Product Revenue, Net
On March 14, 2024, the Company announced that the FDA granted accelerated approval of Rezdiffra (resmetirom) in conjunction with diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis). The Company enters into agreements with specialty pharmacies and specialty distributors (each a “Customer” and collectively the “Customers”) to sell Rezdiffra in the U.S. In addition, the Company launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September 2025. Revenues from product sales are recognized when the Customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery to the Customer.
Revenue is recorded net of variable consideration, which includes prompt pay discounts, returns, chargebacks, rebates, and co-payment assistance. The variable consideration is estimated based on contractual terms as well as management assumptions. The amount of variable consideration is calculated by using the expected value method, which is the sum of probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible outcomes, or the most likely amount method, which is the single most likely amount in a range of possible outcomes. Estimates are reviewed quarterly and adjusted as necessary.
Accruals are established for gross to net deductions and actual amounts incurred are offset against applicable accruals. The Company reflects these accruals as either a reduction in the related account receivable from the customer or as an accrued liability, depending on the means by which the deduction is settled. Sales deductions are based on management’s estimates that involve a substantial degree of judgment.
Prompt Pay: Customers receive a prompt pay discount for payments made within a contractually agreed number of days before the due date. The discounts are accounted for as a reduction of the transaction price and recorded as a contra receivable.
Returns: The Company records allowances for product returns as a reduction of revenue at the time product sales are recorded. Product returns are estimated based on forecasted sales and historical and industry data. Returns are permitted in accordance with the return of goods policy defined within each customer agreement. A returns reserve is recorded as an accrued liability.
Chargebacks: The Company estimates obligations resulting from contractual commitments with the government and other entities to sell products to qualified healthcare providers at prices lower than the list prices charged to the customer who directly purchases from the Company. The customer charges the Company for the difference between what it pays to the Company for the product and the selling price to the qualified healthcare providers, with the difference recorded as a contra receivable.
Co-Payment Assistance: Co-payment assistance programs are offered to eligible end-users as price concessions and are recorded as accrued liabilities and a reduction of the transaction price. The Company uses a third-party to administer the co-payment program for pharmacy benefit claims.
Rebates: The Company’s rebates include amounts paid to pharmacy benefit managers, Medicaid, Medicare, and other rebate programs. Reserves for rebates are recorded in the same period the related product revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenues and a current liability that is included in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s estimate for rebates is based on statutory or contractual discount rates, expected utilization or an estimated number of patients on treatment, as applicable.
Trade Receivables, Net
The Company's trade receivables relate to amounts due from Customers related to product sales and are recorded net of prompt pay discounts and chargebacks. The Company assesses collectability of overdue receivables and those determined to be uncollectible are written-off. As of September 30, 2025, there were no receivables written off.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts, the balance of which, at times, exceeds Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.
The primary objective of the Company’s investment activities is to preserve its capital for the purpose of funding operations and the Company does not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company’s cash is deposited in highly rated financial institutions predominantly in the United States. The Company invests in money market funds and high-grade, commercial paper and corporate bonds, which management believes are subject to minimal credit and market risk.
Marketable Securities
Marketable securities consist of investments in high-grade corporate obligations and government agency obligations that are classified as available-for-sale. Since these securities are available to fund current operations, they are classified as current assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company adjusts the cost of available-for-sale debt securities for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. The Company includes such amortization and accretion as a component of interest income, net. Realized gains and losses and declines in value, if any, that the Company judges to be the result of impairment or as a result of recognizing an allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities are reported as a component of interest income. To determine whether an impairment exists, the Company considers whether it intends to sell the debt security and, if the Company does not intend to sell the debt security, it considers available evidence to assess whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company determined it did not have any securities that were other-than-temporarily impaired.
Marketable securities are stated at fair value, including accrued interest, with their unrealized gains and losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The fair value of these securities is based on quoted prices and observable inputs on a recurring basis. Realized gains and losses are determined on the specific identification method. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, realized gains and losses on marketable securities were not material.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash equivalents and marketable securities, approximate their fair values. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments reflects the amounts that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy has the following three levels:
Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2—observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3—unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company measures the fair value of its marketable securities by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing sources. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include reported trades of and broker-dealer quotes on the same or similar securities, issuer credit spreads, benchmark securities and other observable inputs.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s financial assets valued based on Level 1 inputs consisted of cash and cash equivalents in a money market fund, its financial assets valued based on Level 2 inputs consisted of high-grade corporate and government agency bonds and commercial paper, and it had no financial assets valued based on Level 3 inputs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any transfers of financial assets between Levels 1 and 2. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any financial liabilities that were recorded at fair value on a recurring basis on the balance sheet.
Inventory
Inventory, which consists of work in process and finished goods, is stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value, using actual cost, based on a first-in, first-out method. The balance sheet classification of inventory as
current or non-current is determined by whether the inventory will be consumed within the Company’s normal operating cycle. The Company analyzes its inventory levels quarterly and writes down inventory subject to expiry or in excess of expected requirements, or that has a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value. These write downs are charged to cost of sales in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company capitalizes inventory costs when future commercial sale in the ordinary course of business is probable.
The Company considered regulatory approval of its product candidate to be uncertain and product manufactured prior to regulatory approval could not have been sold unless regulatory approval was obtained. As such, the manufacturing costs incurred prior to regulatory approval were not capitalized as inventory, but rather were expensed as incurred as research and development expenses. The Company began capitalizing inventory in March 2024 after FDA approval was granted for Rezdiffra.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs are comprised of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including internal costs (including cash compensation and stock-based compensation), costs for consultants, certain milestone payments under licensing agreements, and other costs associated with the Company’s preclinical and clinical programs. Research and development costs also include certain licensing costs, including upfront fees and milestones paid to third-parties in connection with technologies that had not reached technological feasibility and did not have an alternative future use. In particular, the Company has conducted safety studies in animals, optimized and implemented the manufacturing of its drug, and conducted clinical trials, all of which are considered research and development expenditures. Management uses significant judgment in estimating the amount of research and development costs recognized in each reporting period. Management analyzes and estimates the progress of its clinical trials, completion of milestone events per underlying agreements, invoices received and contracted costs when estimating the research and development costs to accrue in each reporting period. Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expenses for employees, management costs, costs associated with obtaining and maintaining our patent portfolio, commercial and marketing activities, advertising, corporate insurance, professional fees for accounting, auditing, consulting and legal services and allocated overhead expenses.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the leasing arrangement. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When an implicit rate is not readily determinable, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on information available at commencement. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Short-term leases of twelve months or less at commencement date are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Patents
Costs to secure and defend patents are expensed as incurred and are classified as selling, general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Intangible Assets, Net
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized to cost of sales over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Intangible assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value of stock options, restricted stock units, and other stock-based compensation awards granted to employees, officers, directors, and
consultants. Awards that vest as the recipient provides service are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the grant date fair value of stock options as management believes it is the most appropriate valuation method for its option grants. The Black-Scholes model requires inputs for risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, volatility and expected lives of the options. The expected lives for options granted represent the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses the simplified method for determining the expected lives of options. Expected volatility is based upon an industry estimate or blended rate including the Company’s historical trading activity. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical data. This analysis is re-evaluated at least annually and the forfeiture rate is adjusted as necessary.
For other stock-based compensation awards granted to employees and directors that vest based on market conditions, such as the trading price of the Company’s common stock achieving or exceeding certain price targets, the Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the grant date fair value and recognize stock compensation expense over the derived service period. The Monte Carlo simulation model requires key inputs for risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, volatility, and expected life.
The assumptions used in computing the fair value of equity awards reflect the Company’s best estimates but involve uncertainties related to market and other conditions. Changes in any of these assumptions may materially affect the fair value of awards granted and the amount of stock-based compensation recognized.
Certain of the employee stock options granted by the Company are structured to qualify as incentive stock options (“ISOs”). Under current tax regulations, the Company does not receive a tax deduction for the issuance, exercise or disposition of ISOs if the employee meets certain holding requirements. If the employee does not meet the holding requirements, a disqualifying disposition occurs, at which time the Company may receive a tax deduction. The Company does not record tax benefits related to ISOs unless and until a disqualifying disposition is reported. In the event of a disqualifying disposition, the entire tax benefit is recorded as a reduction of income tax expense. The Company has not recognized any income tax benefit for its stock-based compensation arrangements due to the fact that the Company does not believe it is more likely than not it will realize the related deferred tax assets.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, which prescribes the use of the liability method where deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value if it is more likely than not that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence. The Company currently maintains a 100% valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The difference between the Company’s net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities and unrealized foreign currency translation adjustments.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted average dilutive potential common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. However, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because the inclusion of weighted average shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants or vesting of restricted stock units, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of preferred stock would be
anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes outstanding securities not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Outstanding at September 30, |
| 2025 | | 2024 |
| Common stock options | 1,090,458 | | 1,701,618 |
| Restricted stock units | 779,923 | | 502,867 |
| Performance-based restricted stock units | 306,982 | | 235,520 |
| Preferred stock | 2,369,797 | | 2,369,797 |
| Warrants | 3,625,244 | | 3,625,244 |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which enhances the disclosures required for income taxes in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which applies to all public entities and requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. Public entities must adopt the new standard prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”), which clarifies and aligns existing guidance related to accounting for certain costs incurred in connection with internal-use software, including updated guidance regarding agile and iterative software development methodologies. The standard applies to all entities that incur costs to develop internal-use software. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 on its financial statements.
3. Liquidity and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks common to development stage companies and early commercial companies in the biopharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, uncertainty of product development and commercialization, dependence on key personnel, uncertainty of market acceptance of products and product reimbursement, product liability, uncertain protection of proprietary technology, potential inability to raise additional financing necessary for development and commercialization, and compliance with the FDA, the European Medicines Agency and other government regulations.
The Company has incurred losses since inception, including approximately $229.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, resulting in an accumulated deficit of approximately $2,031.9 million as of September 30, 2025. The Company has historically funded its operations primarily through proceeds from sales of the Company’s capital stock and debt financings. In July 2025, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility that provides up to $500.0 million. See Note 8 “Long Term Debt” for additional details. In addition, following FDA and EC approval, the Company receives revenue from sales of Rezdiffra. Management expects to incur losses until the Company is able to generate sufficient revenue from Rezdiffra and any other approved products. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at September 30, 2025 will be sufficient to fund operations past one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The Company’s future long-term liquidity requirements will be substantial and will depend on many factors, including the Company’s ability to effectively commercialize Rezdiffra, the Company’s decisions regarding future geographic expansion, the conduct of any future preclinical studies and clinical trials, the Company entering into any strategic transactions, the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with the liquidity covenant in the Financing Agreement (as defined in Note 8) and potential milestone payments payable pursuant to an exclusive global license agreement (the “CSPC License Agreement”) with CSPC Pharmaceutical Group Limited (“CSPC”). To meet its future capital needs, the Company may need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings, collaborations, partnerships or other strategic transactions. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete any such transactions on acceptable terms or otherwise. The inability of the Company to obtain sufficient funds on
acceptable terms when needed, if at all, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company has the ability to delay certain commercial activities, geographic expansion activities, and certain research activities and related clinical expenses if necessary due to liquidity concerns until a date when those concerns are relieved.

8. Long Term Debt
Hercules Loan Facility
In May 2022, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Canticle Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Canticle”), entered into a $250.0 million senior secured loan facility (as amended from time to time, the “Hercules Loan Facility”) with the several banks and other financial institutions or entities party thereto (collectively, the “Hercules Lenders”), and Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”), in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent for itself and the Hercules Lenders. Interest on the Hercules Loan Facility was the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 2.45% and (ii) 8.25%. The Hercules Loan Facility included an end-of-term charge of 5.35% of the aggregate principal amount, which was accounted for in the loan discount. In connection with the first tranche drawn at closing, the Company issued Hercules a warrant to purchase 14,899 shares of Company common stock, which had a Black-Scholes value of $0.6 million. In addition, the Company issued to Hercules and its affiliates warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,555 shares of common stock, which had a Black-Scholes value of $0.9 million, following the closing of the second tranche.
On July 17, 2025, the Company used the proceeds of the Initial Term Loan under the Financing Agreement (each as defined below) to repay all outstanding obligations under the Hercules Loan Facility, totaling $121.7 million, and upon such repayment, terminated the Hercules Loan Facility. The amount repaid by the Company included $115.0 million of outstanding indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the repayment date and exit fees. As a result of the termination, all credit commitments under the Hercules Loan Facility were terminated and all security interests and guarantees executed in connection with the Hercules Loan Facility were released. The repayment resulted in a $2.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt, primarily due to the write off of unamortized debt issuance costs.
Blue Owl Credit Facility
On July 17, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, as the borrower, and Canticle, as a guarantor (the “Guarantor”), entered into a Financing Agreement (as amended on September 4, 2025, the “Financing Agreement”) with certain funds managed by Blue Owl Capital Corporation, as the lenders (the “Lenders”), and LSI Financing LLC, as the
administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”). Under the Financing Agreement, the Lenders have committed up to $500.0 million in senior secured credit facilities, consisting of (a) an initial term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $350.0 million (the “Initial Term Loan”) and (b) delayed draw term loan commitments in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $150.0 million (the loans thereunder, if any, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”). In addition, the Financing Agreement includes an uncommitted incremental facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250.0 million (the loans thereunder, if any, the “Incremental Term Loans”, together with the Initial Term Loan and any Delayed Draw Term Loans, collectively the “Term Loans”), subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth in the Financing Agreement. The Initial Term Loan was funded on the Closing Date. Delayed Draw Term Loans are available at the Company’s election from time to time after the Closing Date until December 31, 2027. Incremental Term Loans are available at the Company’s and the Lenders’ mutual consent from time to time after the Closing Date.
Any outstanding principal on the Term Loans will bear interest at a rate per annum on the basis of a 360-day year equal to the sum of (i) the three-month forward-looking term secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (subject to 1.0% per annum floor) plus (ii) 4.75%. Accrued interest is payable quarterly following the funding of the Initial Term Loan on the Closing Date, on any date of prepayment or repayment of the Term Loans and at maturity. The outstanding balance of the Term Loans, if not repaid sooner, shall be due and payable in full on the maturity date thereof. The stated maturity date of the Term Loans is July 17, 2030.
The Company may prepay the Term Loans at any time (in whole or in part) and may be required to make mandatory prepayments upon the occurrence of certain customary prepayment events. In certain instances and during certain time periods, these prepayments will be subject to customary prepayment fees. If the Term Loans are prepaid on or prior to the one-year anniversary of the original issuance, the Company must pay a make-whole amount equal to the greater of (i) 3.00% of the Term Loans being prepaid at such time and (ii) the present value of all remaining interest payments on the amount repaid through the one-year anniversary of the original issuance of such Term Loans, calculated using a discount rate. Thereafter, the amount of any such prepayment fee may vary, but the maximum amount that may be due with any such prepayment would be an amount equal to 3.00% of the Term Loans being prepaid at such time, with such prepayment fee stepping down on each anniversary of the original issuance of such Term Loans.
The Financing Agreement contains affirmative covenants and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries that are customary for financings of this type. The Company and the Guarantors are also required to maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $100.0 million at all times. The Financing Agreement also includes representations, warranties, indemnities and events of default that are customary for financings of this type, including an event of default relating to a change of control of the Company. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Lenders may, among other things, accelerate the Company’s obligations under the Financing Agreement. The obligations of the Company under the Financing Agreement are and will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (such subsidiaries, collectively, the “Guarantors”).
On July 17, 2025, concurrently with the entry into the Financing Agreement, the Company, the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement. As security for the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, each of the Company and the Guarantors are required to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and secured parties, a continuing first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors (including all equity interests owned or hereafter acquired by the Company and the Guarantors), subject to certain customary exceptions. On September 4, 2025, the parties amended the Financing Agreement to add certain of the Company’s subsidiaries as Guarantors.
Future minimum payments, including interest and principal, under the loans payable outstanding as of September 30, 2025 were as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | |
| Period Ending September 30, 2025: | Amount |
| 2025 | $ | 7,828 | |

9. Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
Each common stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held. The common stock will vote together with all other classes and series of stock of the Company as a single class on all actions to be taken by the Company’s stockholders. Each share of common stock is entitled to receive dividends, as and when declared by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Company has never declared cash dividends on its common stock and does not expect to do so in the foreseeable future.
Preferred Stock
The Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (together, the “Series A and B Preferred Stock”) have a par value of $0.0001 per share and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a one-to-one ratio, subject to adjustment as provided in the Certificates of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock that the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 21, 2017 and December 22, 2022, respectively. The terms of the Series A and B Preferred Stock are set forth in such Certificates of Designation. Each share of the Series A and B Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock following notice that may be given at the holder’s option. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, after the satisfaction in full of the debts of the Company and the payment of any liquidation preference owed to the holders of shares of capital stock of the Company ranking prior to the Series A and B Preferred Stock upon liquidation, the holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock shall participate pari passu with the holders of the common stock (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) in the net assets of the Company. Shares of the Series A and B Preferred Stock will generally have no voting rights, except as required by law. Shares of the Series A and B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends before shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Company (other than dividends in the form of the common stock) equal to the dividend payable on each share of the common stock, on an as-converted basis.
2024 Public Offering
On March 18, 2024, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, Cowen and Company, LLC, Evercore Group L.L.C. and Piper Sandler & Co, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “2024 Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company sold to the 2024 Underwriters in an underwritten public offering (the “2024 Offering”): (i) 750,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $260.00 per share, (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “2024 Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 1,557,692 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $259.9999 per 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the common stock less a $0.0001 per share exercise price for each such Pre-Funded Warrant, and (iii) a 30-day option for the 2024 Underwriters to purchase up to 346,153 additional shares of common stock at the public offering price of $260.00 per share (the “Underwriters’ Option”). The 2024 Offering closed on March 21, 2024. The gross proceeds of the 2024 Offering was $600.0 million, and the Company received net proceeds, after deducting the
underwriting discount and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, of approximately $574.0 million.
The Underwriters’ Option was later exercised in full, and closed on April 2, 2024. The net proceeds to the Company for the exercise of the Underwriters’ Option, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, was approximately $85.9 million.
The 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after the date of issuance. A holder of 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage, but not in excess of 19.99%, by providing at least 61 days prior notice to the Company.
At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement
In May 2024, the Company entered into an at-the-market sales agreement (the “2024 Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC (“Cowen”), pursuant to which the Company could, from time to time, issue and sell shares of its common stock. Pursuant to the 2024 Sales Agreement, the Company is authorized to issue and sell up to $300.0 million in shares of the Company’s common stock, at the Company’s option, through Cowen as its sales agent. Sales of common stock through Cowen could be made by any method that is deemed an “at-the-market” offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions at market prices, in block transactions or as otherwise agreed by the Company and Cowen. Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2024 Sales Agreement, Cowen would use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell the common stock based upon the Company’s instructions (including any price, time or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions the Company imposed). The Company sold no shares in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 under the 2024 Sales Agreement.
10. Stock-based Compensation
2015 Stock Plan
The Company’s 2015 Stock Plan, as amended (the “2015 Stock Plan”), is one of the Company’s equity incentive compensation plans through which equity based grants are awarded. The 2015 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based compensation awards to employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company. The administration of the 2015 Stock Plan is under the general supervision of the Compensation Committee of the Board. The terms of stock options awarded under the 2015 Stock Plan, in general, are determined by the Compensation Committee, provided the exercise price per share generally shall not be set at less than the fair market value of a share of the common stock on the date of grant and the term shall not be greater than ten years from the date the option is granted. As of September 30, 2025, 647,640 shares were available for future issuance under the 2015 Stock Plan.
2023 Inducement Plan
In September 2023, the Company adopted the 2023 Inducement Plan (the “2023 Inducement Plan”), pursuant to which the Company made equity grants to new employees as a material inducement to their employment. The 2023 Inducement Plan was adopted without stockholder approval, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), and was administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The 2023 Inducement Plan provided for the granting of non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units and other stock-based compensation awards to new employees, but did not allow for the granting of incentive stock options. The terms of the stock options under the 2023 Inducement Plan, in general, were determined by the Compensation Committee, provided the exercise price per share generally was not to be set at less than the fair market value of a share of the common stock on the date of grant and the term was not to be greater than ten years from the date the option or award is granted. A total of 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2023 Inducement Plan. In June 2025, the Company terminated the 2023 Inducement Plan, and therefore no additional awards may be made from the 2023 Inducement Plan. Any awards outstanding under the 2023 Inducement Plan will continue to be governed by the terms thereof.
2025 Inducement Plan
In June 2025, the Company adopted the 2025 Inducement Plan (the “2025 Inducement Plan”), pursuant to which the Company may from time to time make equity grants to new employees as a material inducement to their employment. The 2025 Inducement Plan was adopted without stockholder approval, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), and is
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The 2025 Inducement Plan provides for the granting of non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units and other stock-based compensation awards to new employees, but does not allow for the granting of incentive stock options. The terms of the stock options under the 2025 Inducement Plan, in general, are determined by the Compensation Committee, provided the exercise price per share generally shall not be set at less than the fair market value of a share of the common stock on the date of grant and the term shall not be greater than ten years from the date the option or award is granted. A total of 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 2025 Inducement Plan. In September 2025, the 2025 Inducement Plan was amended to increase the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance by an additional 300,000 shares. A total of 318,044 shares were available for future issuance as of September 30, 2025.

11. Commitments and Contingencies
Licenses and Other Commitments
The Company has entered into customary contractual arrangements and letters of intent in preparation for and in support of operations in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $187.6 million of obligations under these agreements related to active pharmaceutical ingredient, which is expected to be paid through 2027.
Roche Agreement
The Company has a Research, Development and Commercialization Agreement (the “Roche Agreement”) with Hoffmann-La Roche (“Roche”) which grants the Company a sole and exclusive license to develop, use, sell, offer for sale and import any Licensed Product (as defined in the Roche Agreement).
The Roche Agreement required certain milestone payments to Roche. In March 2024, upon receiving FDA approval of Rezdiffra, a milestone was achieved and $5.0 million was paid to Roche. In August 2025, upon receiving conditional marketing authorization from the EC, a milestone was achieved and $3.0 million was paid to Roche.
Furthermore, a tiered single-digit royalty is payable on net sales of resmetirom or a product developed from resmetirom, subject to certain reductions. The Company began accruing for royalty payments following its commercial launch of Rezdiffra in April 2024.
CSPC License Agreement
In July 2025, the Company entered into the CSPC License Agreement with CSPC for MGL-2086 (formerly known as SYH2086), a preclinical oral small molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Pursuant to the CSPC License Agreement, CSPC has granted the Company an exclusive global license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize MGL-2086. The transaction closed in September 2025. The Company paid CSPC an upfront payment of $120.0 million in October 2025. CSPC is eligible to receive up to $2.0 billion in milestone payments if certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones are achieved, as well as tiered royalties on net sales. The Company expects to initiate clinical development of MGL-2086 in the first half of 2026.
Leases
In 2019, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space located in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania (the “Office Lease”), which was further amended by four amendments entered into from 2019 to May 2023. In August 2023, the Company entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Office Lease (the “Fifth Lease Amendment”). The Fifth Lease Amendment extended the term of the Office Lease through November 2026. As a result of the Fifth Lease Amendment, an incremental $1.6 million right-of-use asset and lease liabilities were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2023. In 2024, we entered into the Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Amendments to the Office Lease, leasing additional office space available in the same premises under the Office Lease, which resulted in an incremental $1.3 million right-of-use asset and lease liability recorded.
In April 2025, the Company entered into an operating lease for additional office space in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. The lease commenced in May 2025 and resulted in a $4.0 million right-of-use asset and lease liability.
In September 2025, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space in Waltham, Massachusetts. The commencement date did not occur as of September 30, 2025 and therefore the new lease had no impact on the financial statements.
12. Segment Information
The Company operates as one reportable segment focused on delivering novel therapeutics for MASH. The Company's Chief Executive Officer, as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), leads the Company in support of four core values—focus on the patient, having an owner mindset, the relentless pursuit of innovation and commitment to collaboration. To best align the Company with these values, the CODM reviews consolidated financials, along with qualitative information, to evaluate performance, manage and allocate resources, make operating decisions, and assess planning and forecasting on a total company basis. Assets, liabilities and equity are reviewed and presented on the same level as the Company's consolidated balance sheet.
Management does not segment business operations for internal reporting or decision making purposes. As the Company has a single reporting segment, the segment accounting policies are the same as those at the Company level, as described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” As of September 30, 2025, the Company did not have material revenue or assets outside of the U.S.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read together with our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, both of which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
About Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on delivering novel therapeutics for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (“MASH”), a serious liver disease with high unmet medical need that can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer, need for liver transplantation and premature mortality. MASH was previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). MASH is the leading cause of liver transplantation in women and the second leading cause of all liver transplantation in the United States, and the fastest-growing indication for liver transplantation in Europe. Our medication, Rezdiffra (resmetirom), is a once-daily, oral, liver-directed thyroid hormone receptor beta (“THR-β”) agonist designed to target key underlying causes of MASH. In March 2024, Rezdiffra became the first therapy approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for patients with MASH and was commercially available in the United States beginning in April 2024. In August 2025, the European Commission (“EC”) approved Rezdiffra and we launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September 2025. Rezdiffra is the first and only medication approved by both the FDA and EC for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (F2 to F3 fibrosis). We are also evaluating Rezdiffra in patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis (consistent with F4c fibrosis) in our MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES trial, that, if successful, could expand the eligible patient population for Rezdiffra.
The FDA’s accelerated approval and the EC’s conditional marketing authorization, as well as Rezdiffra’s approved prescribing information, were supported by 52-week data from our Phase 3 MAESTRO-NASH trial in which both 100 mg and 80 mg doses of Rezdiffra demonstrated statistically significant improvement compared to placebo on (i) MASH resolution with no worsening of fibrosis and (ii) an improvement in fibrosis by at least one stage with no worsening of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) activity score. MAESTRO-NASH remains ongoing as an outcomes trial where we are generating confirmatory outcomes data to 54-months that, if positive, is expected to verify a clinical benefit and support the full FDA approval of Rezdiffra to treat noncirrhotic MASH. We expect outcomes data from this trial in 2028. In addition, full FDA approval of Rezdiffra to treat noncirrhotic MASH could also be based on results from our Phase 3 MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES trial. In this trial, we are assessing progression to liver decompensation events in patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis treated with Rezdiffra versus placebo. A positive outcome in this trial is also expected to support the full FDA approval of Rezdiffra for noncirrhotic MASH, and expand the eligible patient population for Rezdiffra with an additional indication in patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis. We expect results from the MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES trial in 2027. We have agreed to submit results from these trials to the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) in support of full approval of Rezdiffra in the European Union.
MASH Disease State Overview. MASH is a more advanced form of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (“MASLD”). MASLD has become the most common liver disease in the United States and other developed countries and is characterized by an accumulation of fat in the liver with no other apparent causes. MASH can progress to cirrhosis or liver failure, can require liver transplantation and can also result in liver cancer. Patients with MASH, especially those with more advanced metabolic risk factors (hypertension, concomitant type 2 diabetes), are at increased risk for adverse cardiovascular events and increased morbidity and mortality. In addition, MASH patients with moderate to advanced fibrosis (consistent with fibrosis stages F2 and F3) have a 10-to-17 times higher risk of liver-related mortality. Patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis (consistent with F4c fibrosis) have a 42-times higher risk of liver-related mortality, underscoring the need to treat MASH before complications of cirrhosis develop. MASH is also an independent driver of cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of mortality for patients.
Our Patient Focus. Based on published epidemiology data and an analysis of medical claims using ICD-10 disease diagnosis codes, we estimate that approximately 1.5 million patients have been diagnosed with MASH in the United States, of which approximately 525,000 have MASH with moderate to advanced fibrosis. We estimate that approximately 315,000 diagnosed patients with MASH with moderate to advanced fibrosis are under the care of approximately 14,000 specialist prescribers in the U.S. which we are targeting during the commercial launch of Rezdiffra. In addition, we estimate that approximately 370,000 patients with MASH with moderate to advanced fibrosis are currently diagnosed and under the care of a liver specialist across Europe. Over time, as disease awareness improves and disease prevalence increases, we expect the number of identified MASH patients with moderate to advanced fibrosis eligible for treatment to grow. In addition, an estimated 245,000 patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis (consistent with F4c fibrosis) are currently under the care of liver specialists in the U.S.
We continue to focus our efforts on educating healthcare providers and patients on the risks of MASH and the potential clinical benefits and appropriate use of Rezdiffra. We are also supporting the creation of care pathways for
patients at physician offices, driving breadth and depth of Rezdiffra prescribers and engaging with payors to support patient access to therapy.
In June 2025, we received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”) of EMA recommending approval of resmetirom for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis. The EC granted conditional marketing authorization for Rezdiffra in August 2025 and we launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September 2025. The EC decision is valid in all 27 member states of the European Union, as well as in Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. The timing for access to Rezdiffra in individual countries will depend on multiple factors, including the completion of reimbursement procedures.
Corporate Development: We plan to selectively in-license or acquire rights to programs at all stages of development to take advantage of our drug development and commercial capabilities. With a goal of building a well‑balanced and diversified portfolio, we assess a variety of factors for potential product candidates and technologies. Our criteria for possible acquisition or in-licensing opportunities include the rationale for addressing the targeted disease, likelihood of regulatory approval, commercial viability, intellectual property protection, prospects for favorable pricing and reimbursement and competition. We intend to be opportunistic in our business development activities to achieve our long-term strategic goals.
Key Developments
In August 2025, we announced that the EC granted conditional marketing authorization for Rezdiffra for the treatment of MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis. We launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September 2025. Rezdiffra is now the first and only medication approved for patients with MASH in the European Union and is included in the European MASH treatment guidelines.
In August 2025, we announced that Daniel Brennan was appointed to our Board of Directors. Mr. Brennan most recently served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Boston Scientific Corporation (“Boston Scientific”). At Boston Scientific, Mr. Brennan was responsible for several company functions, including global controllership, global internal audit, corporate finance, treasury, corporate tax, investor relations, and corporate business development.
In July 2025, we entered into an exclusive global license agreement (the “CSPC License Agreement”) with CSPC Pharmaceutical Group Limited (“CSPC”) for MGL-2086 (formerly SYH2086), a preclinical oral small molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Pursuant to the CSPC License Agreement, CSPC has granted us an exclusive global license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize MGL-2086. The transaction closed in September 2025. We paid CSPC an upfront payment of $120.0 million in October 2025. CSPC is eligible to receive up to $2.0 billion in milestone payments if certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones are achieved, as well as tiered royalties on net sales. We expect to initiate clinical development of MGL-2086 in the first half of 2026.
In July 2025, we, as the borrower, and our wholly owned subsidiary Canticle Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Canticle”), as a guarantor, entered into a Financing Agreement (as amended, the “Financing Agreement”) with certain funds managed by Blue Owl Capital Corporation, as the lenders (the “Lenders”), and LSI Financing LLC as the administrative agent for the Lenders. Under the Financing Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to commit up to $500.0 million in senior secured credit facilities, consisting of (a) an initial term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $350.0 million (the “Initial Term Loan”) and (b) delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $150.0 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”). In addition, the Financing Agreement includes an uncommitted incremental facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250.0 million (the “Incremental Term Loans”), subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth in the Financing Agreement. The Initial Term Loan was funded on July 17, 2025. Delayed Draw Term Loans are available at our election from time to time until December 31, 2027. Incremental Term Loans are available at our and the Lenders’ mutual consent from time to time.
In July 2025, we announced that we received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a new U.S. patent covering the FDA-approved use of Rezdiffra. The patent, which was issued on August 5, 2025, includes claims directed to Rezdiffra’s commercial weight-threshold dosing regimen as prescribed in the FDA-approved label. The U.S. patent provides protection to February 2045 and was listed in the FDA’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, commonly known as the Orange Book, in August 2025.
Basis of Presentation
Product Revenue, Net
In March 2024, the FDA approved Rezdiffra for the treatment of noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis). Rezdiffra is a once-daily, oral, liver-directed, THR-ß agonist designed to target key underlying causes of MASH. We began generating revenue from sales of Rezdiffra in the United
States in April 2024. In addition, we launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September 2025. Revenue is recorded net of variable consideration, which includes prompt pay discounts, returns, chargebacks, rebates, and co-payment assistance.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes the cost of manufacturing and distribution of inventory related to sales of Rezdiffra. We expect cost of sales to increase in the future, as manufacturing costs incurred prior to regulatory approval were expensed to research and development rather than capitalized as inventory, as approval was considered uncertain.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses primarily consist of costs associated with our research activities, including the clinical development of our product candidates. We expense our research and development expenses as incurred. We contract with clinical research organizations to manage our clinical trials under agreed upon budgets for each trial, with oversight by our clinical program managers. We account for nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities as expenses when the service has been performed or when the goods have been received. Manufacturing expense includes costs associated with drug formulation development and clinical drug production. We do not track employee and facility related research and development costs by project, as we typically use our employee and infrastructure resources across multiple research and development programs. We believe that the allocation of such costs would be arbitrary and not be meaningful.
Our research and development expenses consist primarily of:
•salaries and related expense, including stock-based compensation;
•external expenses paid to clinical trial sites, contract research organizations, laboratories, database software and consultants that conduct clinical trials;
•expenses related to development and the production of clinical trial supplies, including fees paid to contract manufacturers;
•expenses related to compliance with drug development regulatory requirements;
•other allocated expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for depreciation of equipment and other supplies; and
•certain milestone payments payable pursuant to the CSPC License Agreement.
We expect to continue to incur substantial expenses related to our development activities for the foreseeable future as we conduct our clinical trial programs, manufacturing and toxicology studies. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later stage clinical trials, additional drug manufacturing requirements, and later stage toxicology studies such as carcinogenicity studies. The process of conducting clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The probability of success for each product candidate is affected by numerous factors, including preclinical data, clinical data, competition, manufacturing capability and commercial viability.
Completion dates and costs for our clinical development programs as well as our research program can vary significantly for any future product candidate and are difficult to predict. As a result, we cannot estimate with any degree of certainty the costs we will incur in connection with the development of our product candidates at this point in time. We expect that we will make determinations as to which programs and product candidates to pursue and how much funding to direct to each program and product candidate on an ongoing basis in response to the scientific success of research, results of ongoing and future clinical trials, potential collaborative agreements with respect to programs or potential product candidates and ongoing assessments as to each product candidate’s commercial potential.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expenses for employees, management costs, costs associated with commercial activities, costs associated with obtaining and maintaining our patent portfolio, commercial and marketing activities, corporate insurance, professional fees for accounting, auditing, consulting and legal services, and allocated overhead expenses.
We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we expand our operating activities, continue commercialization efforts, including extending operations into new geographies (if approved), maintain and expand our patent portfolio and incur additional costs associated with being a public company and maintaining compliance with exchange listing and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements.
Interest Income
Interest income consists primarily of interest and dividend income earned on cash equivalents and marketable securities.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of interest accrued on principal balances that were outstanding under our Financing Agreement. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we also accrued interest on loans outstanding under the loan facility (the “Hercules Loan Facility”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”) until the Hercules Loan Facility was repaid in full and terminated in July 2025.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to gross to net expenses, inventory valuation, accrued research and development expenses and stock-based compensation expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and 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 value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates as compared to those disclosed in “Part II, Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2025. Refer to Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for details of accounting policies over revenue and inventory.

Revenue
We recorded $287.3 million of product revenue, net for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $62.2 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to increased demand for Rezdiffra in 2025.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales were incurred as a result of sales of Rezdiffra. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $18.1 million of cost of sales compared to $2.2 million in the corresponding period in 2024.
Research and Development Expenses
The following table represents our research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended September 30, | | Increase / Decrease |
| 2025 | | 2024 | | $ | | % |

Total | $ | 174,004 | | | $ | 68,742 | | | $ | 105,262 | | | 153 | % |
Our research and development expenses were $174.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $68.7 million in the corresponding period in 2024. Research and development expenses increased by $105.3 million in the 2025 period primarily due to the $120.0 million upfront expense under the CSPC License Agreement, $117.3 million of which was recognized upon the closing of the transaction in September 2025, partially offset by a reduction in expenses related to clinical trials.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $209.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $107.6 million in the corresponding period in 2024. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $101.5 million in the 2025 period, primarily due to an increase in commercial activities for Rezdiffra, including a corresponding increase in headcount to support our commercialization efforts.
Interest Income
Our net interest income was $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $13.0 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower interest rates compared to the corresponding period in 2024.
Interest Expense
Our interest expense was $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3.7 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The increase of $3.8 million was primarily the result of a higher average outstanding principal balance after entering into the Financing Agreement.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

| | | | | | | | |
Revenue
We recorded $637.3 million of product revenue, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $76.8 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a full nine months of sales in 2025, as we began selling Rezdiffra in April 2024, as well as increased demand for Rezdiffra in 2025.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales were incurred as a result of sales of Rezdiffra. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $31.7 million of cost of sales compared to $2.8 million in the corresponding period in 2024.
Research and Development Expenses
The following table represents our research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Nine Months Ended September 30, | Increase / Decrease |
| 2025 | | 2024 | | $ | | % |
Personnel and Internal Expense | $ | 51,109 | | | $ | 51,923 | | | $ | (814) | | | (2) | % |
External Expense | 221,148 | | | 159,147 | | | 62,001 | | | 39 | % |
Total | $ | 272,257 | | | $ | 211,070 | | | $ | 61,187 | | | 29 | % |
Our research and development expenses were $272.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $211.1 million in the corresponding period in 2024. Research and development expenses increased by $61.2 million in the 2025 period primarily due to the $120.0 million upfront expense under the CSPC License Agreement, $117.3 million of which was recognized upon the closing of the transaction in September 2025, partially offset by a change in accounting for inventory costs following FDA approval of Rezdiffra in March 2024 and a reduction in expenses related to clinical trials.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $573.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $293.8 million in the corresponding period in 2024. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased by $280.0 million in the 2025 period primarily due to increases for commercial activities for Rezdiffra, including a corresponding increase in headcount to support our commercialization efforts.
Interest Income
Our net interest income was $27.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $35.6 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower interest rates in 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024.
Interest Expense
Our interest expense was $14.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $11.2 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The increase of $2.8 million was primarily the result of a higher average outstanding principal balance after entering into the Financing Agreement.
Macroeconomic Events
Changes in, and uncertainties related to, global trade or other economic policies, including tariffs or other restrictions imposed by the United States government or governments of other nations, may have an adverse effect on us, our partners and the pharmaceutical industry as a whole. Based on our current manufacturing locations, supply chain operations and inventory, we believe that the current tariff policies will not have a material impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our U.S. commercial and clinical supply of resmetirom is currently manufactured in the United States. In addition, we have engaged a European manufacturer to produce our commercial supply of drug product for European commercialization. Additional changes to the policies of the United States or other nations that affect the geopolitical landscape or global trade, economy or market conditions, and other direct or indirect impacts of such policies, are uncertain and unpredictable, and could, in the future, have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities totaling $1,114.7 million compared to $931.3 million as of December 31, 2024. We have historically funded our operations primarily through proceeds from sales of our capital stock and debt financings. In July 2025, we entered into a senior secured credit facility that provides up to $500.0 million. See Note 8 “Long Term Debt” for additional details. In addition, following FDA and EC approval, we receive revenue from sales of Rezdiffra.
Until we are able to generate sufficient revenue from Rezdiffra and any other future approved products, we anticipate that we will continue to incur significant losses. While our rate of cash usage will likely increase in the future, in particular to support our product development and clinical trial efforts, our commercialization efforts and geographic expansion activities and our business development goals, we believe our available cash resources are sufficient to fund our operations past one year from the issuance of the financial statements contained herein. Our future long-term liquidity requirements will be substantial and will depend on many factors, including our ability to effectively commercialize Rezdiffra, our decisions regarding future geographic expansion, the conduct of any future preclinical studies and clinical trials, our entry into any strategic transactions, our ability to maintain compliance with the liquidity covenant in the Financing Agreement and potential milestone payments payable pursuant to the CSPC License Agreement. To meet future long-term liquidity requirements, we may need to raise additional capital to fund our operations through equity or debt financings, collaborations, partnerships or other strategic transactions. Additional capital, if needed, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, or if the terms of potential funding sources are unfavorable, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We have the ability to delay certain commercial activities, geographic expansion activities and certain research activities and related clinical expenses, if necessary, due to liquidity concerns until a date when those concerns are relieved.
At-the-Market Sales Agreement
In May 2024, we entered into a Sales Agreement (the “2024 Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC, an affiliate of TD Securities (USA) LLC (“Cowen”), replacing and superseding our sales agreement from 2021. We are authorized to issue and sell up to $300.0 million of shares of our common stock under the 2024 Sales Agreement. Sales of our common stock, if any, under the 2024 Sales Agreement will be made by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We have no obligation to sell any
common stock and may at any time suspend offers under the 2024 Sales Agreement or terminate the 2024 Sales Agreement pursuant to its terms.
We did not make any sales under the 2024 Sales Agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, $300.0 million remained available for sale under the 2024 Sales Agreement and our related prospectus supplement.
Hercules Loan Facility
In May 2022 we entered into the $250.0 million Hercules Loan Facility. Interest on the Hercules Loan Facility was the greater of (i) the prime rate plus 2.45% and (ii) 8.25%. The Hercules Loan Facility included an end-of-term charge of 5.35% of the aggregate principal amount, which was accounted for in the loan discount.
On July 17, 2025, we used the proceeds received from the Financing Agreement to repay all outstanding obligations under the Hercules Loan Facility, totaling $121.7 million, and upon such repayment, terminated the Hercules Loan Facility. The amount we repaid included $115.0 million of outstanding indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the repayment date and exit fees. As a result of the termination, all credit commitments under the Hercules Loan Facility were terminated and all security interests and guarantees in connection with the Hercules Loan Facility were released. The repayment resulted in a $2.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt, primarily due to the write off of unamortized debt issuance costs.
Blue Owl Credit Facility
On July 17, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), we, as the borrower, and Canticle, as a guarantor (the “Guarantor”), entered the Financing Agreement with the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Under the Financing Agreement, the Lenders have committed up to $500.0 million in senior secured credit facilities, consisting of (a) the Initial Term Loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $350.0 million and (b) Delayed Draw Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $150.0 million. In addition, the Financing Agreement includes uncommitted Incremental Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250.0 million (together with the Initial Term Loan and any Delayed Draw Term Loans, collectively the “Term Loans”), subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth in the Financing Agreement. The Initial Term Loan was funded on the Closing Date. Delayed Draw Term Loans are available at our election from time to time after the Closing Date until December 31, 2027. Incremental Term Loans are available at our and the Lenders’ mutual consent from time to time after the Closing Date. The proceeds from the Financing Agreement are expected to primarily support our business development activities.
Any outstanding principal on the Term Loans will bear interest at a rate per annum on the basis of a 360-day year equal to the sum of (i) the three-month forward-looking term secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (subject to a 1.0% per annum floor) plus (ii) 4.75%. Accrued interest is payable (i) quarterly following the funding of the Initial Term Loan on the Closing Date, (ii) on any date of prepayment or repayment of the Term Loans and (iii) at maturity. The outstanding balance of the Term Loans, if not repaid sooner, shall be due and payable in full on July 17, 2030.
We may prepay the Term Loans at any time (in whole or in part) and may be required to make mandatory prepayments upon the occurrence of certain customary prepayment events. In certain instances and during certain time periods, these prepayments will be subject to customary prepayment fees. If the Term Loans are prepaid on or prior to the one-year anniversary of the original issuance, we must pay a make-whole amount equal to the greater of (i) 3.00% of the Term Loans being prepaid at such time and (ii) the present value of all remaining interest payments on the amount repaid through the one-year anniversary of the original issuance of such Term Loans, calculated using a discount rate. Thereafter, the amount of any such prepayment fee may vary, but the maximum amount that may be due with any such prepayment would be an amount equal to 3.00% of the Term Loans being prepaid at such time, with such prepayment fee stepping down on each anniversary of the original issuance of such Term Loans.
The Financing Agreement contains affirmative covenants and negative covenants applicable to us and our subsidiaries that are customary for financings of this type. We and the Guarantors (as defined below) are also required to maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $100.0 million at all times. The Financing Agreement also includes representations, warranties, indemnities and events of default that are customary for financings of this type, including an event of default relating to us experiencing a change of control. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Lenders may, among other things, accelerate our obligations under the Financing Agreement. Our obligations under the Financing Agreement are and will be guaranteed by certain of our existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (such subsidiaries, collectively, the “Guarantors”).
On July 17, 2025, concurrently with the entry into the Financing Agreement, we, the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement. As security for our obligations under the Financing Agreement, we and the Guarantors are required to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and secured parties, a continuing first priority security interest in substantially all of our and the Guarantors’ assets (including all equity interests owned or hereafter acquired by us and the Guarantors), subject to certain customary exceptions. On September 4, 2025, the parties amended the Financing Agreement to add certain of our subsidiaries as Guarantors.
March 2024 Public Offering
In March 2024, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, Cowen and Company, LLC, Evercore Group L.L.C. and Piper Sandler & Co, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “2024 Underwriters”), pursuant to which we sold to the 2024 Underwriters in an underwritten public offering (the “2024 Offering”): (i) 750,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $260.00 per share, (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “2024 Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 1,557,692 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $259.9999 per 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the common stock less a $0.0001 per share exercise price for each such Pre-Funded Warrant, and (iii) a 30-day option for the 2024 Underwriters to purchase up to 346,153 additional shares of common stock at the public offering price of $260.00 per share (the “Underwriters’ Option”). The 2024 Offering closed on March 21, 2024.
The net proceeds of the 2024 Offering after deducting the underwriting discount and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by us, were approximately $659.9 million.
The 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after the date of issuance. A holder of 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants may not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of 2024 Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage, but not in excess of 19.99%, by providing at least 61 days prior notice to us.
Cash Flows
The following table provides a summary of our net cash flow activity (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Nine Months Ended September 30, |
| 2025 | | 2024 |
|
| Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (56,093) | | | $ | (351,086) | |

| Net increase in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | 195,675 | | | $ | 137,769 | |
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $56.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $351.1 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The use of cash in these periods resulted primarily from our losses from operations, as adjusted for non-cash charges for stock-based compensation, and changes in our working capital accounts.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $226.4 million for the corresponding period in 2024. Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily consisted of $843.2 million from sales and maturities of marketable securities, partially offset by $834.6 million of purchases of marketable securities for our investment portfolio and a $3.0 million acquisition of an intangible asset. Net cash used in investing activities for the corresponding period in 2024 primarily consisted of $781.0 million of purchases of marketable securities and a $5.0 million acquisition of an intangible asset, partially offset by $560.9 million from sales and maturities of marketable securities in our investment portfolio.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $247.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $715.3 million for the corresponding period in 2024. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consisted of $350.0 million of proceeds from the Initial Term Loan under the Financing Agreement and $28.1 million from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by a repayment of $121.7 million under the Hercules Loan Facility and $9.4 million of debt issuance costs. Net cash provided by financing activities for the corresponding period in 2024 consisted primarily of $659.9 million of net proceeds from our 2024 Offering and $57.1 million from the exercise of stock options.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
In 2019, we entered into an operating lease for office space in certain premises located in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania (the “Office Lease”), which was further amended by four amendments entered into from 2019 to May 2023. In August 2023, we entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Office Lease (the “Fifth Lease Amendment”) pursuant to which the term of the Office Lease was extended through November 2026. As a result of the Fifth Lease Amendment, an incremental $1.6 million right-of-use asset and lease liability were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2023. In 2024, we entered into the Sixth Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Amendments to the Office Lease, leasing additional office space available in the same premises under the Office Lease, which resulted in an incremental $1.3 million right-of-use asset and lease liability recorded.
In April 2025, we entered into an operating lease for additional office space in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. The lease commenced in May 2025 and resulted in a $4.0 million right-of-use asset and lease liability.
In September 2025, we entered into an operating lease for office space in Waltham, Massachusetts. The commencement date did not occur as of September 30, 2025 and therefore the new lease had no impact on the financial statements.
In May 2022, we entered into the $250.0 million Hercules Loan Facility. On July 17, 2025, we entered into the Financing Agreement and used the proceeds to repay all outstanding obligations under the Hercules Loan Facility, totaling $121.7 million, and upon such repayment, terminated the Hercules Loan Facility. The amount we repaid included $115.0 million of outstanding indebtedness plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the repayment date and exit fees. Accrued interest under the Financing Agreement is payable quarterly, on any date of prepayment or repayment of the term loans outstanding thereunder and at maturity. We are not required to repay any principal amounts outstanding under the Financing Agreement until maturity in July 2030, subject to certain prepayment events set forth in the Financing Agreement. See Note 8 “Long Term Debt” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the Financing Agreement.
We have a Research, Development and Commercialization Agreement (the “Roche Agreement”) with Hoffmann-La Roche (“Roche”) which grants us a sole and exclusive license to develop, use, sell, offer for sale and import any Licensed Product (as defined in the Roche Agreement). We received FDA approval for Rezdiffra in March 2024 and EC approval for Rezdiffra in August 2025. A tiered single-digit royalty is payable to Roche on net sales of Rezdiffra, subject to certain reductions.
In July 2025, we entered into the CSPC License Agreement for MGL-2086 (formerly known as SYH2086), a preclinical oral small molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. Pursuant to the CSPC License Agreement, CSPC has granted us an exclusive global license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize MGL-2086. The transaction closed in September 2025. We paid CSPC an upfront payment of $120.0 million in October 2025. CSPC is eligible to receive up to $2.0 billion in milestone payments if certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones are achieved, as well as tiered royalties on net sales.
We have entered into customary contractual agreements in support of the Phase 3 clinical trials and in connection with manufacturing Rezdiffra. As of September 30, 2025, we had approximately $187.6 million of obligations under these agreements related to active pharmaceutical ingredient, which is expected to be paid through December 2027.
Except as noted above, no significant changes to contractual obligations and commitments occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on February 26, 2025.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Variable Interest Rate
As of September 30, 2025, our primary exposure to interest rate risk was associated with our variable rate borrowings under the Financing Agreement. Any outstanding principal on the Term Loans will bear interest at a rate per annum on the basis of a 360-day year equal to the sum of (i) the three-month forward-looking term secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (subject to a 1.00% per annum floor) plus (ii) 4.75%. See Note 8 “Long Term Debt” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Interest rates are sensitive to a variety of factors, including changes in fiscal and monetary policies, geopolitical events, changes in global economic conditions and other factors beyond our control. For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the interest rate associated with the $350.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Financing Agreement was 9.1%. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the effect of a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the interest rate would have changed our interest expense under the Financing Agreement by approximately $0.7 million.
Foreign Exchange Exposure
As we expand our operations into Europe, we are exposed to risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily between the U.S. dollar, euro and Swiss franc. The majority of our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which they are incurred, which is primarily the U.S. dollar. As we endeavor to expand our presence in international markets, to the extent we are required to enter into agreements denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, results of operations and cash flows may increasingly be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To date, we have not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk. As our international operations grow, we will continue to reassess our approach to manage our risk relating to fluctuations in currency rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide such reasonable assurance described above as of September 30, 2025.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1) This Trading Plan provides for the sale of shares to be received upon future vesting of certain outstanding restricted stock unit awards, net of any shares sold to satisfy applicable taxes. The number of shares to be sold to satisfy taxes, and thus the exact number of shares to be sold pursuant to this Trading Plan, can only be determined upon the occurrence of future vesting events. For purposes of this disclosure, we have reported the maximum aggregate number of shares to be sold without subtracting any shares to be sold to satisfy tax obligations.
Director Resignation
On November 3, 2025, Kenneth Bate provided notice of his resignation from our Board of Directors (the “Board”), effective as of December 10, 2025. Mr. Bate’s resignation was not due to any disagreement on any matter relating to our operations, policies or practices. The Board is grateful to Mr. Bate for his years of service and significant contributions to the Board and the Company.
