Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines to target diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone. Our initial product candidate, lorundrostat, is an investigational, proprietary, orally administered, highly selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor that we are developing for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension (uHTN) or resistant hypertension (rHTN), as well as related comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and other diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone.

We have completed six clinical trials of lorundrostat supporting its efficacy and safety profile while also validating aldosterone as an integral therapeutic target in uHTN and rHTN. The clinical program includes two pivotal, registrational trials, the Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial and Phase 2 Advance-HTN trial, which support the robust, durable, and clinically meaningful reductions in systolic blood pressure (BP) by lorundrostat. Lorundrostat was well tolerated in both trials with a favorable safety profile. We submitted our NDA to the FDA in December 2025 for lorundrostat for the treatment of hypertension in combination with other antihypertensive drugs. The FDA accepted the NDA submission and provided us with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target date of December 22, 2026 for lorundrostat.

In the United States, there are approximately 120 million patients with sustained elevated BP, or hypertension. Approximately 60 million patients are treated and over 30 million do not achieve their BP goal, with approximately 20 million having systolic BP levels greater than 140 mmHg. Patients with hypertension that persists despite taking two or more medications have 1.8 and 2.5 times greater mortality risk due to either cardiovascular disease or stroke, respectively. Dysregulated aldosterone levels are a key factor in uHTN or rHTN in approximately 30% of patients.

The image below summarizes the status of recently completed and ongoing clinical trials. Detailed results of our trials are set forth in Part I, Item 1, “Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Transform-HTN is an open-label extension trial that is ongoing and enables participants to continue to receive lorundrostat and allows us to gather additional long-term safety and efficacy data. All participants in the pivotal hypertension program, including the Launch-HTN and Advance-HTN trials, as well as the Explore-CKD trial, were given the opportunity to participate in the extension trial.

On March 9, 2026, we announced topline data from our exploratory Phase 2 Explore-OSA trial that evaluated the effect of lorundrostat in the treatment of overweight and obese participants with moderate-to-severe OSA and hypertension. After four weeks of treatment, lorundrostat 50 mg dosed in the evening did not demonstrate a clinically meaningful difference relative to placebo on the apnea-hypopnea index, the primary

endpoint. The trial demonstrated a clinically meaningful reduction in BP at week four, with an 11.1 mmHg (p 0.0001) and a 1.0 mmHg (p = NS) BP reduction with lorundrostat and placebo, respectively, in the pre-planned parallel arm analysis of the first period. There was a 6.2 mmHg placebo-adjusted reduction (p 0.0003) in BP in the crossover analysis. Lorundrostat demonstrated a favorable safety profile and was well tolerated, with no serum potassium excursions above 5.5 mmol/L. Analysis is ongoing for other endpoints in the trial and may be reported in future publications or medical meetings. Detailed results of our trials are set forth in Part I, Item 1, “Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Financial Overview

We commenced our operations in May 2019 and have devoted substantially all of our resources to date to fund research and development activities, business planning, establishing and maintaining our intellectual property portfolio, advancing regulatory activities, staffing our company, initiating commercial-readiness activities, raising capital, and providing general and administrative support for our operations. As of June 30, 2026, we had cash, cash equivalents, and investments of $661.4 million. Since inception, we have raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.4 billion from sales of common stock, convertible preferred stock, pre-funded warrants, and convertible notes, as well as borrowings under the Loan Agreement (as defined and further described below). Our net losses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $280.4 million and $85.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $737.6 million and $457.2 million, respectively. Our net losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year, depending on the timing of our clinical development activities and other research and development activities, the timing and outcome of the regulatory review of our NDA for lorundrostat by the FDA, and the extent of our commercial-readiness activities in anticipation of potential FDA approval.

We anticipate that certain expenses will increase substantially as we prepare for a potential approval and launch of lorundrostat, including the following:

•conducting ongoing regulatory activities, including responding to FDA information requests, supporting a potential advisory committee meeting (not anticipated currently), preparing for potential approval and post-marketing commitments, and potential commercial launch of lorundrostat;

•continuing to expand our pre-commercial organization, including building out our sales, medical affairs, market access, health economics and outcomes research, regulatory, quality, manufacturing, and other commercial functions;

•obtaining, maintaining, protecting, and enforcing our intellectual property;

•continuing the Transform-HTN open-label extension trial and conducting any required post-approval studies;

•attracting and retaining experienced scientific, regulatory, medical, commercial, and operational talent; and

•operating as a public company with expanding SEC compliance, legal, and finance obligations.

We have never generated any revenue and do not expect to generate any revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain regulatory approval for lorundrostat, if ever. Accordingly, until such time as we can generate significant revenue from sales of lorundrostat, if ever, we expect to finance our cash needs through equity offerings, debt financings, or other capital sources, including potential collaborations, licenses, and other similar arrangements. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such other arrangements when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to

develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves. For more information, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Tanabe License Agreement

In July 2020, we entered into an exclusive license agreement (as amended, the Tanabe License) with Tanabe Pharma Corporation (Tanabe) (formerly Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation), pursuant to which Tanabe granted us an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing, sublicensable license under Tanabe’s patent and other intellectual property rights to exploit products incorporating lorundrostat (formerly MT-4129) (Lorundrostat Product) for the prevention, treatment, diagnosis, detection, monitoring, or predisposition testing with respect to indications, diseases, and conditions in humans. Pursuant to the Tanabe License, we previously paid Tanabe a $1.0 million upfront fee and development milestone payments of $9.0 million in the aggregate.

On June 2, 2026, we entered into a fourth amendment to the Tanabe License (the Fourth Amendment), pursuant to which our obligation to pay Tanabe royalties on net sales of Lorundrostat Products was terminated, the license was amended and restated to grant us an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license, and our diligence obligations with respect to the ongoing development and commercialization of lorundrostat were eliminated. As consideration, we made an upfront cash payment to Tanabe of $200.0 million and agreed to pay additional commercial milestone payments of up to $100.0 million in the aggregate (the New Milestones). As a result of the Fourth Amendment, we have remaining obligations to pay Tanabe commercial milestone payments, including the New Milestones, of up to $255.0 million in the aggregate upon first commercial sale and upon meeting certain annual sales targets, as well as up to $10.0 million related to commercialization for a potential second indication. The New Milestones become immediately due and payable by us upon certain change-of-control transactions. Within a specified period following execution of the Fourth Amendment, the parties agreed to enter into an agreement to terminate the Tanabe License, pursuant to which, among other things, Tanabe will assign to us all of Tanabe’s rights in the licensed intellectual property.

Senior Secured Term Loan

On June 2, 2026, we entered into a senior secured term loan agreement (the Loan Agreement) with BioPharma Credit PLC, as collateral agent, and each of BPCR Limited Partnership and BioPharma Credit Investments V (Master) LP, which are funds managed by Pharmakon Advisors, LP, as lenders. The Loan Agreement provides for a five‑year senior secured term loan of up to $500.0 million, maturing on June 3, 2031 (the Maturity Date), consisting of the following tranches (collectively, the Term Loans): (i) a Tranche A Loan of $100.0 million, which was drawn on June 2, 2026; (ii) a Tranche B Loan of $150.0 million, which is required to be drawn no later than April 30, 2027, subject to approval by the FDA of the lorundrostat NDA (the Tranche B Approval Condition); (iii) a Tranche C Loan of $150.0 million, which is available at our election until December 14, 2028, subject to the occurrence of the Tranche B Approval Condition and the achievement of certain net sales milestones; and (iv) a Tranche D Loan of $100.0 million, which is available at our election until June 14, 2029, subject to the draw of the Tranche C Loan and the achievement of certain net sales milestones. As of June 30, 2026, we had drawn the $100.0 million Tranche A Loan, and the Tranche B Loan, Tranche C Loan, and Tranche D Loan were undrawn. The Maturity Date is subject to acceleration to June 30, 2028 if the Tranche B Approval Condition is not satisfied on or before September 30, 2027.

The Term Loans bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the three‑month secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) (subject to a 3.25% floor) plus 5.50%, payable quarterly in arrears. At inception of the Tranche A Loan, the applicable interest rate was 9.15%. We are required to pay a funding fee equal to 2.00% of the funding amount on the funding date of each Term Loan, and paid a funding fee of $2.0 million in connection with the Tranche A Loan. We may elect to prepay the Term Loans in whole or, subject to certain conditions, in part prior to the Maturity Date, subject to certain prepayment, make‑whole, and exit fees. The Term Loans are subject to certain mandatory prepayments, including a repayment of all Term Loans in four equal installments commencing on September 30, 2027 to the extent the Tranche B Approval Condition is not met on or prior to September 30, 2027. Each Term Loan requires us to pay a final fee equal to 1.5% of the original principal

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including those described in the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements and Market Data.” As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines to target diseases driven by dysregulated aldosterone. Our product candidate, lorundrostat, is a proprietary, orally administered, highly selective ASI that we are developing for the treatment of cardiorenal conditions affected by dysregulated aldosterone, including hypertension and related comorbidities such as CKD and OSA.

In the United States, there are approximately 120 million patients with sustained elevated BP, or hypertension. Approximately 60 million patients are treated and over 30 million do not achieve their BP goal, with approximately 20 million having systolic BP levels greater than 140 mmHg. Patients with hypertension that persists despite taking two or more medications have 1.8 and 2.5 times greater mortality risk due to either cardiovascular disease or stroke, respectively. Dysregulated aldosterone levels are a key factor in uHTN or rHTN in approximately 30% of patients.

We submitted our NDA to the FDA in December 2025 for lorundrostat for the treatment of hypertension in combination with other antihypertensive drugs. The FDA accepted the NDA submission and provided us with a PDUFA target action date of December 22, 2026.

Clinical Program Highlights

Ahead of the NDA submission in December 2025, we completed five successful clinical trials of lorundrostat supporting the efficacy and safety profile while also validating aldosterone as an integral therapeutic target in uHTN or rHTN. This includes two pivotal, registrational trials, the Phase 3 Launch-HTN trial and Phase 2 Advance-HTN trial, which support the robust, durable, and clinically meaningful reductions in systolic BP by lorundrostat. Lorundrostat was well tolerated in both trials with a favorable safety profile. Based on the positive results from our pivotal program, we submitted an NDA in December 2025 for lorundrostat for the treatment of hypertension in combination with other antihypertensive drugs. We believe, based on available clinical data, that our product candidate holds promise to be an innovative solution for the rapidly growing unmet need in multiple cardiorenal metabolic disorders.

The image below summarizes the status of recently completed and ongoing clinical trials:

We believe the Launch-HTN and Advance-HTN trial results demonstrate the opportunity for lorundrostat in third-line or later treatment of patients with hypertension. Detailed results of these trials are set forth in the “Business” section of this Annual Report. Our pivotal program was highlighted in several publications in 2025:

•The Launch-HTN trial results were presented in a late-breaking presentation at the 2025 European Society of Hypertension Meeting on Hypertension and Cardiovascular Protection in May 2025 and published in the June 30, 2025 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA, DOI:10.1001/jama.9413).

•The Launch-HTN clinical trial and results were featured in JAMA’s inaugural “Research of the Year Roundup,” a curated collection of the most impactful studies published between October 2024 and September 2025, including recognition of Launch-HTN as one of the top-nine manuscripts by the editors of JAMA.

•The Advance-HTN trial results were presented in a late-breaking presentation at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session & Expo (ACC.25) held in March 2025 and published in the April 23, 2025 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM, DOI: 10.1056/NEJMoa2501440).

•The Explore-CKD clinical trial results were presented at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025, featuring a late-breaking oral presentation of the Phase 2 Explore-CKD trial.

Transform-HTN is an open-label extension trial allowing participants to continue to receive lorundrostat and for us to obtain ongoing long-term efficacy and safety data. All participants in the pivotal hypertension program, including the Advance-HTN and Launch-HTN trials, as well as the Explore-CKD trial, were given the opportunity to participate in the extension trial.

Research to date has demonstrated the opportunities for lorundrostat as a solution for patients in the treatment of hypertension, including hypertensive patients with CKD and OSA. In June 2025, we announced positive topline data from our Phase 2 Explore-CKD trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of 25 mg of lorundrostat in addition to an SGLT2 inhibitor for the treatment of hypertension in participants with hypertension and comorbid CKD. The trial was highly statistically significant and was clinically meaningful in reducing UACR, a marker of kidney disease progression, as well as demonstrating a favorable safety and tolerability profile. Detailed results of this trial are set forth in the “Business” section of this Annual Report.

Lorundrostat has been developed to address dysregulated aldosterone, and we believe this mechanism may be applicable to other indications where dysregulated aldosterone biology plays a role. Most recently, we have begun to explore lorundrostat for patients with OSA and hypertension.

On March 9, 2026, we announced topline data from our exploratory Phase 2 Explore-OSA trial that evaluated the effect of lorundrostat in the treatment of overweight and obese participants with moderate-to-severe OSA and hypertension. After four weeks of treatment, lorundrostat 50 mg dosed in the evening did not demonstrate a clinically meaningful difference relative to placebo on the AHI, the primary endpoint. The trial demonstrated a clinically meaningful reduction in BP at week four, with an 11.1 mmHg (p 0.0001) and a 1.0 mmHg (p = NS) BP reduction with lorundrostat and placebo, respectively, in the pre-planned parallel arm analysis of the first period. There was a 6.2 mmHg placebo-adjusted reduction (p 0.0003) in BP in the crossover analysis.

Lorundrostat demonstrated a favorable safety profile and was well tolerated, with no serum potassium excursions above 5.5 mmol/L. Analysis is ongoing for other endpoints in the trial and may be reported in future publications or medical meetings. Detailed results of this trial are set forth in the “Business” section of this Annual Report.

Financial Overview

We commenced our operations in May 2019 and have devoted substantially all of our resources to date to organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, in-licensing our product candidate, lorundrostat, establishing our intellectual property portfolio, conducting research, preclinical studies, and clinical trials, and providing other general and administrative support for our operations. As of December 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and investments of $656.6 million. Since inception, we have raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion from the sale of common stock, convertible preferred stock, pre-funded warrants, and convertible notes. In September 2025, we sold 11,274,509 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $269.6 million after deducting an underwriting discount of 6% and other offering expenses. In March 2025, we sold 14,907,406 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $188.7 million after deducting an underwriting discount of 6% and other offering expenses. Beginning in April 2025 and through March 12, 2026, we have sold an aggregate of 4,634,548 ATM Shares (as defined below) for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $139.6 million after deducting commission to the Sales Agents and Prior Sales Agents (each as defined below) and other offering expenses. In February 2024, we

Table of Contents

sold 8,339,169 shares of common stock and, to certain purchasers, 549,755 pre-funded warrants to purchase common stock for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $116.1 million, net of offering expenses, in a private placement offering (the Private Placement).

We do not have any products approved for sale, have not generated any revenue, and have incurred net losses since our inception. Our operations to date have been limited to business planning, raising capital, in-licensing and developing lorundrostat, conducting clinical trials, research and development and other activities. Our net losses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $154.7 million and $177.8 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $457.2 million and $302.5 million, respectively. Our net losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year, depending on the timing of our clinical development activities and other research and development activities. We expect our expenses and operating losses will increase substantially as we conduct our ongoing and future clinical trials for lorundrostat, seek regulatory approval for lorundrostat and potentially any future product candidates we may develop, expand our clinical, regulatory, quality, manufacturing, and commercialization capabilities, obtain, maintain, protect and enforce our intellectual property, expand our general and administrative support functions, including hiring additional personnel, and incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company.

Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our cash, cash equivalents, and investments will be sufficient to allow us to fund our operations for at least twelve months. We have never generated any revenue and do not expect to generate any revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain regulatory approval for lorundrostat, if ever. Accordingly, until such time as we can generate significant revenue from sales of lorundrostat, if ever, we expect to finance our cash needs through equity offerings, debt financings, or other capital sources, including potential collaborations, licenses, and other similar arrangements. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such other arrangements when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
