Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis is meant to provide material information relevant to an assessment of the financial condition and results of operations of our company, including an evaluation of the amount and certainty of cash flows from operations and from outside sources, so as to allow investors to better view our company from management’s perspective. You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and the related notes and discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed on February 24, 2026. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on February 24, 2026 and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in or implied by these forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
Our Business
We are a biotechnology company dedicated to improving the lives of patients suffering from debilitating and life-threatening diseases. Through our PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera, or PROTAC, protein degradation platform, we are pioneering the development of a new class of therapeutics designed to harness the body’s own natural protein disposal system to selectively and efficiently degrade and remove disease-causing proteins. We believe that our targeted protein degradation approach is a novel therapeutic modality that may provide distinct advantages over existing therapies and address a broad range of targets, including historically undruggable proteins, in areas of significant unmet need.
In the past five years, seven of the programs developed using our PROTAC protein degradation platform have progressed to clinical trials in oncology and neurology indications after demonstrating potent and selective protein degradation in our preclinical studies. We believe favorable clinical trial results in our ongoing oncology and neurology programs would further validate our platform as a new therapeutic modality for the potential treatment of diseases caused by dysregulated intracellular proteins.
In the second quarter of 2026, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approved VEPPANU™ (vepdegestrant) for the treatment of adults with estrogen receptor-positive, or ER+,/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, or HER2-, estrogen receptor 1, or ESR1, -mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer, as detected by an FDA-authorized test, with disease progression following at least one line of endocrine-based therapy. VEPPANU is the first and only FDA-approved PROTAC protein degrader, a type of heterobifunctional protein degrader therapy.
Also in the second quarter of 2026, we and Pfizer Inc., or Pfizer, entered into a license agreement with Rigel Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or Rigel, for the exclusive global development, manufacturing, and commercialization rights for VEPPANU, or the Rigel License Agreement. Under the terms of the Rigel License Agreement, Rigel is responsible for the launch and commercialization of VEPPANU in the U.S. and owns global rights with the ability to sublicense to potential partners to further develop and commercialize VEPPANU outside of the U.S. We and Pfizer are entitled to a percentage of sublicensing revenue generated outside the U.S. Rigel has agreed to reimburse us and Pfizer up to $40.0 million of the costs of ongoing development activities that were in progress as of the effective date of the Rigel License Agreement. While Pfizer is responsible for these ongoing development activities, we and Pfizer will share equally in this reimbursement and therefore we will reimburse Pfizer for 50% of the costs of such activities.
Pursuant to the terms of the Rigel License Agreement, Rigel paid to us and Pfizer a one-time, upfront payment in the aggregate amount of $70.0 million. In addition, we and Pfizer will receive an additional upfront payment in the amount of $15.0 million upon successful completion of select development and manufacturing transition activities. We and Pfizer are also eligible to receive up to an additional $320.0 million as contingent payments based on future development, regulatory and commercial milestones being met, as well as tiered royalties in the mid-teens to mid-20s based upon worldwide net sales of VEPPANU, subject to reduction under
23
Table of Contents
certain circumstances as provided in the Rigel License Agreement. All payments under the Rigel License Agreement will be shared equally between us and Pfizer. In connection with and to facilitate entry into the Rigel License Agreement, in the second quarter of 2026, we and Pfizer also entered into a letter agreement supplementing and amending the terms of the Original Vepdegestrant (ARV-471) Collaboration Agreement, or the Pfizer Letter Agreement, which was accounted for as a contract modification. Pursuant to the terms of the Pfizer Letter Agreement, until any termination of the Rigel License Agreement, the milestones and royalty payments under the Rigel License Agreement replace any unearned future amounts that may be owed by Pfizer to us under the Original Vepdegestrant (ARV-471) Collaboration Agreement.
Our pipeline, which includes an overview of our clinical and preclinical programs, as well as out-licensed programs, is summarized below.
*The agents, other than VEPPANU which has been approved by the FDA, in the pipeline graphic above are currently under investigation; their safety and effectiveness for these investigational uses have not been established.

•Footnotes included in pipeline graphic: 1. Includes relapsed/refractory angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) and relapsed/refractory mature B cell NHL; 2. Phase 1/2 combination trials with palbociclib, atirmociclib, abemaciclib, ribociclib, samuraciclib, everolimus.
In addition to the programs above and any early-stage collaborations, including with Pfizer, we are conducting exploratory research and development work on multiple other undisclosed targets.
Clinical Stage Programs: ARV-393, ARV-102, ARV-027 and ARV-806
ARV-393: Oral PROTAC BCL6 Degrader Program
ARV-393 is an investigational, orally bioavailable PROTAC designed to specifically target and degrade BCL6, a transcriptional repressor and a key regulator of normal B-cell maturation and differentiation processes. Deregulation of BCL6 function (e.g., via chromosomal translocation, mutations) may lead to malignant transformation and development of NHL. Also as a lineage defining transcription factor of T-follicular helper
24
Table of Contents
cells, BCL6 has been implicated in nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma, or nTFHL, including the angioimmunoblastic type, formerly angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, or AITL.
We believe that PROTAC-mediated degradation has the potential to address the historically undruggable nature of BCL6 and that ARV-393 PROTAC-mediated degradation of BCL6 may provide an important novel therapeutic option for patients with NHL. Furthermore, we believe current preclinical data suggest that ARV-393 has the potential to be an attractive combination partner for development of novel therapies for lymphoma, including chemo-free combination regimens and/or “all oral” treatment options.
Preclinical Development
We have conducted preclinical studies of ARV-393 alone, in combination with SOC chemotherapy and biologic agents, as well as oral, investigational small molecule inhibitors in high grade and aggressive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, or DLBCL, and in combination with glofitamab, a CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody and an emerging SOC option for DLBCL, in models of aggressive high grade DLBCL. We believe the totality of our ARV-393 preclinical data provides a compelling rationale to evaluate ARV-393 in combination with bi-specifics, oral pathway inhibitors, and potentially other SOCs in the larger DLBCL indication.
Clinical Development
We initiated the monotherapy cohort of our first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-393 in patients with relapsed or refractory NHL in the second quarter of 2024 and are currently recruiting patients for this clinical trial. This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1 dose escalation trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability PK, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of ARV-393 as a single agent in adult patients with relapsed/refractory NHL. We announced in the first quarter of 2026, and have since reiterated that there have been multiple responses observed in early cohorts at doses below the predicted effective exposure level in patients with both B- and T-cell lymphomas in the first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial. We believe these early data support an emerging, and differentiated, therapeutic benefit of ARV-393. Dose escalation in the trial is ongoing and the safety profile of ARV-393 supports continuing dose escalation. We plan to share clinical data from the early monotherapy cohorts in the ongoing Phase 1 dose escalation clinical trial of ARV-393 in patients with relapsed/refractory NHL at a medical congress in the second half of 2026. We expect that the majority of this data in 2026 will be from the early cohorts dosed below the expected efficacious range. These early monotherapy cohorts, when compared with the overall lymphoma population, include a higher-than-predicted proportion of patients with T-cell lymphomas, which we believe reflects the limited treatment options for these patients. However, as we’ve approached the predicted efficacious range, enrollment of patients, including those with B-cell lymphomas, has increased. We anticipate sharing additional monotherapy data in the ongoing Phase 1 dose escalation clinical trial in patients with B- and T-cell lymphomas in mid-2027.
In addition, in the second quarter of 2026, we announced the initiation of a combination cohort in the ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate ARV-393 in combination with glofitamab as a chemotherapy-free combination approach in patients with DLBCL. Enrollment in this clinical trial is currently ongoing, and we plan to share data from this combination cohort of ARV-393 with glofitamab in patients with DLBCL in mid-2027.
ARV-102: Oral PROTAC LRRK2 Degrader Program
ARV-102 is an investigational, orally bioavailable PROTAC designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and specifically target and degrade LRRK2, which is a large, multi-domain scaffolding kinase with GTPase activity. ARV-102 is our first oral PROTAC protein degrader in clinical development to treat neurodegenerative diseases.
Traditional small molecule inhibitors, or SMIs, only block LRRK2’s kinase activity, and thus only modify

We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to improving the lives of patients suffering from debilitating and life-threatening diseases. Through our PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera, or PROTAC, protein degradation platform, we are pioneering the development of a new class of therapeutics designed to harness the body’s own natural protein disposal system to selectively and efficiently degrade and remove disease-causing proteins. We have designed and optimized our proprietary PROTAC Discovery Engine for the discovery of PROTAC therapeutics to address diseases caused by abnormal proteins or aberrant protein expression. We believe that our targeted protein degradation approach is a novel therapeutic modality that may provide distinct advantages over existing therapies and address a broad range of targets, including historically undruggable proteins, in areas of significant unmet need.
In the past five years, seven of the programs developed using our PROTAC protein degradation platform have progressed to clinical trials in oncology and neurology indications after demonstrating potent and selective protein degradation in our preclinical studies. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, has accepted our New Drug Application, or NDA, for vepdegestrant, our most advanced product candidate from the platform, for the treatment of patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-), or ER+/HER2-, estrogen receptor 1, or ESR1, mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have previously received endocrine-based therapy, and has assigned a Prescription Drug User Fee Act, or PDUFA, action date of June 5, 2026. We believe favorable clinical trial results in our ongoing oncology and neurology programs would further validate our platform as a new therapeutic modality for the potential treatment of diseases caused by dysregulated intracellular proteins.
We are currently progressing the following product candidates through clinical development programs:
•ARV-102, targeting the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2, or LRRK2, protein for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease, or PD, and progressive supranuclear palsy, or PSP;
•ARV-806, targeting Kirsten rat sarcoma, or KRAS, G12D protein for cancers with the G12D mutation, including pancreatic, colorectal and non-small cell lung cancer;
•ARV-393, targeting the B-cell lymphoma 6, or BCL6, protein for the treatment of relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or NHL;
•ARV-027, targeting the polyglutamine-expanded androgen receptor, or polyQ-AR, in skeletal muscle; and
•vepdegestrant, targeting the estrogen receptor, or ER, for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer.

We are also advancing several preclinical candidates through early stage development in a broad range of intracellular disease targets, including proteins that currently cannot be addressed by existing small molecule therapies, commonly referred to as “undruggable” or under-drugged targets. These preclinical candidates include ARV-6723 targeting hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1, or HPK1, and a pan-KRAS degrader targeting multiple variants of KRAS while sparing other RAS isoforms.
In addition to the programs above and our early-stage collaborations, including with Pfizer, Inc., or Pfizer, and Genentech, Inc. and F. Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., or Genentech, we are conducting exploratory research and development work on multiple other undisclosed targets.
Our Clinical Stage Programs
ARV-102: Oral PROTAC LRRK2 Degrader Program
ARV-102 is an investigational, orally bioavailable PROTAC designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and specifically target and degrade LRRK2, which is a large, multi-domain scaffolding kinase with GTPase activity. ARV-102 is our first oral PROTAC protein degrader in clinical development to treat neurodegenerative diseases. We believe our LRRK2 degraders are particularly well positioned to be evaluated in neurodegenerative diseases where there are currently no disease modifying therapies available, including :
•PD, where increased LRRK2 expression and activity contributes to neurodegeneration and pathogenesis of PD; and
•PSP, where genetic variations in LRRK2 are associated with PSP progression and accelerated time to death. Additionally, we have published data associating the tau pathology of PSP with LRRK2-mediated endolysosomal dysfunction.
We have been evaluating ARV-102 in Phase 1 clinical trials in healthy volunteers and patients with PD.
•Healthy Volunteers: We initiated the first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial for ARV-102 in the first quarter of 2024. We completed the single ascending dose, or SAD, and multiple ascending dose, or MAD, cohorts of the ARV-102 Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy volunteers.
•Patients with PD: We completed enrollment in the SAD cohort of the ARV-102 Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with PD in the second quarter of 2025. We received Clinical Trial Application approval in the Netherlands to initiate a multiple dose cohort of the Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with PD in the second quarter of 2025, and we initiated this multiple dose cohort in the third quarter of 2025. In the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed enrollment in the multiple dose cohort.
In the second quarter of 2025, we presented data from the first-in-human Phase 1 healthy volunteer clinical trial of ARV-102 at the 2025 International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases, or AD/PD, 2025, including results from the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled SAD cohort, and initial results from the MAD cohort. The ARV-102 Phase 1 clinical data in healthy volunteers demonstrated substantial reduction of LRRK2 in CSF with a promising safety/tolerability profile and favorable pharmacodynamic outcomes. Key findings from the clinical trial indicated brain penetration, substantial central and peripheral LRRK2 protein degradation, and downstream LRRK2 pathway engagement.
In the fourth quarter of 2025, we presented late breaking positive Phase 1 data from our clinical trial of ARV-102 in healthy volunteers, and from the SAD cohort of our Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-102 in patients with PD, as well as CSF Proteomic Data from the Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-102 in healthy volunteers at the 2025 International Congress of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders®. Data from the Phase 1 SAD and MAD clinical trial in healthy volunteers showed that ARV-102 was generally well tolerated, with no discontinuations due to adverse events, or AEs, or serious adverse events, or SAEs, observed in the trial population, favorable pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Interim SAD data from the Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with PD showed single doses of ARV-102 were well tolerated with only mild treatment-related AEs, including headache, diarrhea, and nausea, with no SAEs, and favorable pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
We plan to present data from the multiple dose cohort of the Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-102 in patients with PD in the first quarter of 2026 in an oral presentation at 2026 AD/PD. Pending regulatory feedback, we plan
123
to initiate a Phase 1b clinical trial of ARV-102 in patients with PSP in the first half of 2026, and have the potential to initiate a registrational trial of ARV-102 in PSP in late 2026, pending regulatory feedback.
ARV-806: Novel PROTAC KRAS G12D Degrader Program
ARV-806 is an investigational novel PROTAC designed to selectively target and degrade mutant KRAS G12D in solid tumors. KRAS is one of the most frequently mutated human oncogenes and G12D is the most common mutation of the KRAS protein. We believe ARV-806 has the potential to address high unmet need in solid tumors, such as pancreatic, colorectal and non-small cell lung cancer, or NSCLC, with KRAS G12D mutation.
We have conducted preclinical studies of ARV-806 and in the preclinical setting, ARV-806 demonstrated high potency and selectivity, with robust antitumor activity through dose-responsive degradation of KRAS G12D in KRAS G12D mutated cancer models, including pancreatic and colorectal models. These preclinical data demonstrate sustained pharmacodynamic activity consistent with long-lasting target degradation, which we believe supports intermittent clinical dosing. In particular, in the fourth quarter of 2025, we presented new preclinical data at AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics highlighting ARV-806's high potency and clear differentiation from both KRAS inhibitors and degraders currently in the clinic while also demonstrating dose-dependent, selective, robust anti-tumor activity, with regressions across preclinical models of KRAS G12D-mutant cancers; in vitro potency approximately 25 times greater than KRAS inhibitors and 40 times greater than the leading clinical-stage degrader, and degradation greater than 90% for seven days after single dose and significant efficacy in models of pancreatic, colorectal, and lung cancer.
We believe ARV-806 has the potential to address high unmet need in solid tumors, such as pancreatic, colorectal and non-small cell lung cancer. We filed an investigational new drug application with the FDA for ARV-806 in the first quarter of 2025 and received a safe-to-proceed letter from the FDA in the second quarter of 2025. We initiated enrollment in a Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-806 in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring KRAS G12D mutations in the second quarter of 2025 and this trial is currently ongoing.
In the first quarter of 2026, we announced that we had completed dose escalation for once-weekly administration ahead of plan based on faster-than-anticipated enrollment of the Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating ARV-806 in patients with solid tumors harboring KRAS G12D mutations. We plan to continue enrollment in this clinical trial and anticipate sharing initial clinical data in patients with solid tumors harboring KRAS G12D mutations in 2026.
ARV-393: Oral PROTAC BCL6 Degrader Program
ARV-393 is an investigational, orally bioavailable PROTAC designed to specifically target and degrade BCL6, a transcriptional repressor and a key regulator of normal B-cell maturation and differentiation processes. Deregulation of BCL6 function (e.g., via chromosomal translocation, mutations) may lead to malignant transformation and development of NHL. Also as a lineage defining transcription factor of T-follicular helper cells, BCL6 has been implicated in nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma, or nTFHL, including the angioimmunoblastic type, formerly angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, or AITL.
We believe that PROTAC-mediated degradation has the potential to address the historically undruggable nature of BCL6 and that ARV-393 PROTAC-mediated degradation of BCL6 may provide an
