Form Type
10-Q

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Obsidian Therapeutics, Inc. is a Delaware-based, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing engineered tumor infiltrating lymphocyte cell therapies for solid tumors. A corporate reorganization created Gazelle Parent, Inc. on April 10, 2026, which later completed merger transactions with Obsidian and Galera Therapeutics, Inc. under an Agreement and Plan of Merger effective August 3, 2026.

In connection with these mergers, qualified institutional and accredited investors agreed to a $350.0 million Concurrent PIPE Financing in Legacy Galera Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, alongside a registration rights agreement for resale of resulting common shares. Legacy Galera stockholders also received contingent value rights tied to 80% of potential future net proceeds from a Legacy Product for five years and 95% from a Supportive-Care Product divestiture for ten years. As of August 10, 2026, Obsidian had 61,772,876 shares of common stock outstanding, and management reported effective disclosure controls with no material changes in internal control over financial reporting.

Filing Explained

This is a pre-closing stub report, so it does not provide a post-merger operating or liquidity baseline for existing common holders.

Form 10-Q is an unaudited quarterly report; this filing covers the period from April 10, 2026, through June 30, 2026. The reporting period ended before the August 3, 2026 merger completion, so its statements describe the newly formed reporting entity before the transactions closed, not the post-merger business.

At June 30, 2026, the balance sheet, income statement, and cash-flow statement report zero amounts, while equity shows 1,000 shares issued and outstanding; the filing says the company conducted no significant activities beyond formation and transaction matters during the period. This leaves the filing without a post-merger operating or liquidity baseline.

The company separately reports 61,772,876 common shares outstanding as of August 10, 2026, versus 1,000 shares at June 30, marking the later post-transaction share count rather than a June 30 balance.

For fuller operating results, financial condition, and risk factors, the report directs readers to its Form S-4, so those items remain outside this 10-Q’s stub-period statements.

Concurrent PIPE Financing $350.0 million Aggregate purchase price for Legacy Galera Series C Preferred Stock under the Securities Purchase Agreement
Shares outstanding 61,772,876 shares Common stock outstanding as of August 10, 2026
Founding common shares 1,000 shares Common stock authorized, issued and outstanding for the holding company at June 30, 2026
Legacy Product CVR participation 80% of net proceeds Pro rata share of potential future net proceeds over five years for Legacy Product
Supportive-Care Product CVR participation 95% of net proceeds Pro rata share of potential future net proceeds over ten years from Supportive-Care Product divestiture
Inception date April 10, 2026 Date the holding company was formed to consummate the merger transactions
Concurrent PIPE Financing financial
"for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million (the “Concurrent PIPE Financing”)"
Contingent Value Rights Agreement financial
"entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”)"
registration rights agreement financial
"entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”)"
A registration rights agreement is a contract that gives investors the option to have their ownership stakes officially registered with the government, making it easier to sell their shares later. This agreement matters because it provides investors with a clearer path to cash out their investments if they choose, offering more liquidity and confidence in their ability to sell their holdings when desired.
tumor infiltrating lymphocyte cell therapies medical
"to develop engineered tumor infiltrating lymphocyte cell therapies for the treatment"
emerging growth company regulatory
"smaller reporting company | | | Emerging growth company"
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.

OBSIDIAN THERAPEUTICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

Obsidian Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company harnessing novel protein-regulation technology to develop engineered tumor infiltrating lymphocyte cell therapies for the treatment of patients with solid tumors. The Company has two wholly-owned direct subsidiaries, Onyx MergerSub, Inc. (“Obsidian Merger Sub”), and Gazelle Merger Subsidiary, Inc. (“Galera Merger Sub”), both of which are Delaware corporations.

On July 2, 2026, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declared effective the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, of Gazelle Parent, Inc., which was formed on April 10, 2026 for purposes of consummating the transactions described herein (“Legacy Company”) relating to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated April 14, 2026, by and among Company, Legacy Company, Galera Therapeutics, Inc. (“Legacy Galera”), Obsidian Merger Sub and Galera Merger Sub pursuant to which (a) Obsidian Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, pursuant to the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”), with Obsidian as the surviving entity (the “Obsidian Merger”) and (b) immediately following the Obsidian Merger, the Galera Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy Galera, pursuant to the DGCL, with Legacy Galera as the surviving entity (the “Galera Merger,” and together with the Obsidian Merger, the “Mergers”). Immediately following the completion of the Mergers, Legacy Company was renamed Obsidian Therapeutics, Inc.

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, on April 14, 2026, the Company, Legacy Company and Legacy Galera entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain qualified institutional buyers and/or accredited investors (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions therein, the Investors agreed to purchase, and Legacy Galera agreed to issue and sell, immediately prior to the effective time of the Obsidian Merger (the “Obsidian Effective Time”), shares of Legacy Galera’s Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million (the “Concurrent PIPE Financing”).

In connection with the Concurrent PIPE Financing, Legacy Galera, Legacy Company and the investors in the Concurrent PIPE Financing entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Company agreed to register for resale certain shares of common stock of Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”) held by such Investors from time to time, including shares of Company Common Stock issued in the Mergers in exchange for the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Legacy Galera (“Legacy Galera Common Stock”) issued in the Concurrent PIPE Financing.

On July 31, 2026, Legacy Company and Legacy Obsidian entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”) with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (the “Rights Agent”), pursuant to which stockholders of Legacy Galera of record as of July 31, 2026 received (1) one contingent value right, each a CVR, for each outstanding share of Legacy Galera Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date, representing the right to receive a pro rata portion of 80% of any potential future net proceeds received by Company or its affiliates from the development, commercialization, licensing, sale or other disposition of the Legacy Product (as defined in the CVR Agreement), or related intellectual property during the five years following the closing and (2) the CVR for each outstanding share of Legacy Galera Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date, representing the right to receive a pro rata portion of 95% of any potential future net proceeds received by Company or its affiliates from the Supportive-Care Product Divestiture (as defined in the CVR Agreement) during the ten years following the closing.

The contingent payments under the CVR Agreement, if they become payable, will become payable to the Rights Agent for subsequent distribution to the holders of the CVRs. There can be no assurance that any holders of CVRs will receive payments with respect thereto.

The right to the contingent payments contemplated by the CVR Agreement is a contractual right only and will not be transferable, except in the limited circumstances specified in the CVR Agreement. The CVRs are not evidenced by a certificate or any other instrument and are not registered with the SEC. The CVRs do not have any voting or dividend rights and do not represent any equity or ownership interest in us or any of our affiliates. No interest will accrue on any amounts payable in respect of the CVRs.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the applicable periods presented. Actual results may vary from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Management’s discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Obsidian Therapeutics, Inc. should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended (File No. 333-295249) filed with the SEC.

On July 2, 2026, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) declared effective the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, of Legacy Company relating to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated April 14, 2026, by and among the Company, Legacy Company, Galera Therapeutics, Inc.

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, on April 14, 2026, the Company, Legacy Company and Legacy Galera entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain qualified institutional buyers and/or accredited investors (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions therein, the Investors agreed to purchase, and Legacy Galera agreed to issue and sell, immediately prior to the effective time of the Obsidian Merger (the “Obsidian Effective Time”), shares of Legacy Galera’s Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $350.0 million (the “Concurrent PIPE Financing”).

In connection with the Concurrent PIPE Financing, Legacy Galera, Legacy Company and the investors in the Concurrent PIPE Financing entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Company agreed to register for resale certain shares of common stock of Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”) held by such Investors from time to time, including shares of Company Common Stock issued in the Mergers in exchange for the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Legacy Galera (“Legacy Galera Common Stock”) issued in the Concurrent PIPE Financing.

On July 31, 2026, Legacy Company and Legacy Obsidian entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”) with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (the “Rights Agent”), pursuant to which stockholders of Legacy Galera of record as of July 31, 2026 received (1) one contingent value right, each a CVR, for each outstanding share of Legacy Galera Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date, representing the right to receive a pro rata portion of 80% of any potential future net proceeds received by Company or its affiliates from the development, commercialization, licensing, sale or other disposition of the Legacy Product (as defined in the CVR Agreement), or related intellectual property during the five years following the closing and (2) the CVR for each outstanding share of Legacy Galera Common Stock held by such stockholder on such date, representing the right to receive a pro rata portion of 95% of any potential future net proceeds received by Company or its affiliates from the Supportive-Care Product Divestiture (as defined in the CVR Agreement) during the ten years following the closing.

The contingent payments under the CVR Agreement, if they become payable, will become payable to the Rights Agent for subsequent distribution to the holders of the CVRs. There can be no assurance that any holders of CVRs will receive payments with respect thereto.

The right to the contingent payments contemplated by the CVR Agreement is a contractual right only and will not be transferable, except in the limited circumstances specified in the CVR Agreement. The CVRs are not evidenced by a certificate or any other instrument and are not registered with the SEC. The CVRs do not have any voting or dividend rights and do not represent any equity or ownership interest in us or any of our affiliates. No interest will accrue on any amounts payable in respect of the CVRs.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) were effective, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
