Net Product Revenue

Collaboration and License Agreements Revenue

The Company enters into collaborative arrangements for the research and development, and commercialization of drug products and drug candidates. To date, these collaborative arrangements have included out-licensing of and options to out-license in-licensed compounds to other parties. These arrangements may include non-refundable upfront payments, contingent obligations for potential development, regulatory and commercial performance milestone payments, cost reimbursement arrangements, product supply and royalty payments.

In-Licensing Arrangements with Daiichi Sankyo Company Ltd. ("DS")

The Company has in-licensed the rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize multiple development stage drug candidates globally or in specific territories. The development milestone payments are recognized when the achievement of the associated milestone becomes probable and estimable and have been expensed before regulatory approval has been obtained. In December 2024, a $2.0 million development milestone payment was capitalized as an intangible asset upon regulatory approval in China. We reached two milestones in 2024, and the resulting $6 million in development milestone payments owed were paid to DS in March 2025. In June 2025, upon regulatory approval in the U.S., an $8 million regulatory milestone payment was owed to DS under the arrangement. This milestone payment was paid in July 2025 and was capitalized as an intangible asset.

Out-Licensing Arrangements

The Company's revenue related to its out-licensing collaborative agreements consist of product revenue, upfront license fees, royalty revenue and research and development services revenue from its collaboration agreements with Innovent Biologics Co. Ltd. ("Innovent") and Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd. ("NK") for taletrectinib (also known as "AB-106").

Collaboration and License Agreement with Innovent

In May 2021, AnHeart entered into an agreement with Innovent, granting Innovent a sub-licensable, royalty-bearing, exclusive right and license to commercialize AB-106 in the People's Republic of China and Taiwan (the "Innovent Territory"). AnHeart is responsible for funding ongoing clinical trials of AB-106, regulatory submissions after development with Innovent responsible for commercialization. Under the agreement, AnHeart received a non-refundable upfront cash payment, $12.0 million for achievement of certain regulatory approval milestones, and is eligible to receive up to $17.0 million upon achievement of additional regulatory milestones, up to $105.0 million upon achievement of commercial milestones, and tiered percentage royalties ranging from mid-teen to low-twenties on annual net sales of taletrectinib in the Innovent Territory subject to certain adjustments.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized research and development service revenue of $5.3 million, sales of products supply of $2.4 million, and royalties of $1.1 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized research and development service revenue of $3.1 million, and license revenue of $2.1 million. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the accounts receivable of Innovent was $1.3 million and $12.6 million, respectively.

Collaboration and License Agreement with NK

In October 2023, AnHeart entered into an agreement with NK, granting NK a sub-licensable, royalty-bearing, exclusive right and license to commercialize AB-106 in Japan (the "NK Territory"). AnHeart is responsible for funding ongoing clinical trials of AB-106 in the NK Territory, with NK responsible for funding regulatory submissions in the NK Territory. The Company also granted NK a sub-licensable, royalty-bearing, exclusive right and license to research, develop and commercialize any new indications of AB-106 in the NK Territory ("NK New Indication Right"). Under the agreement, AnHeart received a non-refundable upfront cash payment of $40.0 million and is eligible to receive $25.0 million upon achievement of a regulatory milestone ("Regulatory Milestone Payment"), up to $35.0 million upon achievement of commercial milestones, and a lower-mid double digit percentage royalty on net sales of taletrectinib in the NK Territory. In September 2025, taletrectinib was approved by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare. Since the regulatory approval has now been obtained, all remaining contract liability for research and development service from the initial upfront payment was recognized as revenue. In December 2025, upon receipt of the Regulatory Milestone Payment, the Company recognized $21.2 million in license revenue and $3.8 million in research and development service revenue.

The Company recognized license revenue of $21.2 million, research and development service revenue of $6.9 million, sales of products supply of $0.6 million and royalties of $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized research and development service revenue of $2.7 million. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the accounts receivable of NK was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Contract assets and contract liabilities

When the Company satisfies its performance obligations by providing services to a customer before the customer pays consideration and before payment is due, the Company recognizes its rights to consideration as a contract asset.

The Company did not recognize any contract assets as of December 31, 2025.

When a customer pays consideration before the Company provides services, the Company records its obligation as a contract liability representing the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations. The contract liabilities as of December 31, 2025 of $18.8 million are expected to be recognized as revenue as research and development services are provided over the next 3 years, with $7.5 million expected to be recognized within one year of the balance sheet date.

The Company recognized $8.3 million of revenue in 2025 that was included in the contract liability balance at December 31, 2024.

The costs incurred to fulfill customer contracts were capitalized and amortized to cost of revenue on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of research and development services to the customer to which the asset relates. For the year ended December 31, 2025, $5.2 million of costs incurred to fulfill customer contracts were capitalized and expensed in the same period. There were no balances related to the costs incurred to fulfill customer contracts as of December 31, 2025.

About Revenue Disclosures

Revenue disclosures under ASC 606 explain how a company identifies performance obligations, allocates transaction prices, and determines when revenue is recognized. This section is essential for understanding whether reported revenue reflects genuine economic activity or aggressive accounting choices. Analysts examine the mix of point-in-time versus over-time recognition, which directly affects revenue timing and comparability.

Key signals: rising contract liabilities (deferred revenue) suggest strong future revenue visibility, while declining contract assets may indicate slowing project milestones. Watch for variable consideration estimates — rebates, returns, and performance bonuses that require management judgment. Significant changes in disaggregated revenue by geography or product line can reveal shifting business mix before it appears in headline numbers. Compare revenue growth against contract liability growth to assess sustainability, and scrutinize any changes in the timing of recognition that coincide with earnings pressure.
