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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “Annual Report”). This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under the sections titled “Risk Factors,” “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere herein, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Executive Overview

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 and premature mortality. MASH is expected to become the leading cause of liver transplantation in the United States and is already the leading cause of liver transplantation among women in the United States. Our medication, Rezdiffra (resmetirom), is a once-daily, oral, liver-directed THR-β agonist designed to target key underlying causes of MASH. In March 2024, Rezdiffra became the first and only therapy approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) for patients with MASH and was commercially available in the United States beginning in April 2024. Rezdiffra is indicated in conjunction with diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis).

See “Part I, Item 1. Business” for a summary of our commercial and clinical activities.

Financial Overview

We have incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $1,802.2 million as of December 31, 2024. Prior to generating product revenue from sales of Rezdiffra beginning in April 2024, we financed our operations primarily through public and private offerings of our equity securities and through our loan facility (“Loan Facility”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”). We have generated losses principally from costs associated with research and development activities, acquiring, filing and expanding intellectual property rights, establishing a commercial infrastructure to support the launch of Rezdiffra and selling, general and administrative expenses. As a result of planned expenditures to commercialize Rezdiffra, expand our commercial operations to Europe (subject to receipt of regulatory approval), continue research and development activities, manage and grow our intellectual property portfolio, engage in potential business development transactions and costs associated with general corporate activities, we expect to incur additional operating losses.

Our ability to reduce operating losses and begin to generate positive cash flow from operations depends on our ability to successfully commercialize Rezdiffra and achieve positive results from our post-approval trials in order to obtain full approval of Rezdiffra in the United States and potentially expand the eligible patient population. Our financial results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and will depend on, among other factors, the net sales of Rezdiffra; the scope and progress of our research and development efforts and the timing of certain expenses.

See the section titled “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Need for Capital.” in this Annual Report for additional information.

Key Components of Our Operating Results

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. Rezdiffra was launched for sale in the United States in April 2024. As described in the “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section below, revenue is recorded net of variable consideration, which includes prompt pay discounts, service fees, returns, chargebacks, government 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 non-clinical and clinical trial supplies, including fees paid to contract manufacturers;

•expenses related to preclinical studies;

•expenses related to compliance with drug development regulatory requirements; and

•other allocated expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for depreciation of equipment and other supplies.

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 preclinical studies and 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 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 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 SEC requirements.

Interest Income

Interest income consists primarily of interest and dividend income earned on cash equivalents and marketable securities.

Interest Expense

Table of Contents

Interest expense consists primarily of interest accrued on principal balances under the Loan Facility with Hercules.

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 amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at 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.

Revenue Recognition

Our accounting policy over revenue recognition has a significant impact on our financial results and involves substantial judgement and estimation. The amount of revenue we recognize is impacted by variable consideration, as described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. Our gross to net estimates are based on contracts with customers, government agencies, healthcare providers, industry data, historical information, and other factors. The judgements and estimates involved in determining variable consideration are reviewed each reporting period, as all are subject to adjustments as new information becomes available.

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. 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 entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that we determine are within the scope of ASC 606, we perform 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) we satisfy its performance obligation(s).

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. We reflect 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: We record 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 goods policy defined within each customer agreement. A returns reserve is recorded as an accrued liability.

Chargebacks: We estimate 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 us. The customer charges us for the difference between what it pays to us 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. We use a third-party to administer the co-payment program for pharmacy benefit claims.

Rebates: We are subject to discount obligations under government programs, including Medicaid and Medicare. 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. Our

71

Table of Contents

estimate for rebates is based on statutory discount rates, expected utilization or an estimated number of patients on treatment, as applicable.

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 it will be consumed within our normal operating cycle. We periodically review our inventory for factors that could impact the future recoverability and realization of future sales, which requires estimates and judgements. We analyze our inventory levels quarterly and write down inventory subject to expiry, 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 Income. We capitalize inventory costs when future commercial sale in the ordinary course of business is probable.

Research and Development Expense

The following represents our research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

Our research and development expenses were $236.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $272.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Research and development expenses decreased by $35.6 million in 2024 primarily due to a reduction in clinical trial expense and the change in accounting for inventory costs following FDA approval of Rezdiffra in March 2024, partially offset by increases in headcount.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $435.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $108.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $326.9 million in 2024 due primarily to increases for commercial launch activities for Rezdiffra, including a corresponding increase in headcount, and an increase in stock compensation expense.

Interest Income

Our interest income was $46.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $19.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in interest income was due primarily to higher principal balances and interest rates in 2024.

Interest Expense

Our interest expense was $14.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $12.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of a higher average outstanding principal balance during the period under the Loan Facility with Hercules.

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

For discussion of our 2023 results and a comparison with 2022 results please refer to “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, 2023 that was filed with the SEC on February 28, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have incurred significant net losses and we have funded our operations primarily through proceeds from sales of our capital stock and debt financings.

As of December 31, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities totaling $931.3 million compared to $634.1 million as of December 31, 2023, with this increase attributable to our 2024 public offering, where we received net proceeds of approximately $659.9 million.

Until we are able to generate sufficient revenue from Rezdiffra and any other 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 and our entry into any strategic transactions. To meet future long-term liquidity requirements, as well as maintain compliance with certain of our Loan Facility covenants, 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 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Sales Agreement Amendment”) to our prior sales agreement (the “2021 Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC, an affiliate of TD Securities (USA) LLC (“Cowen”), which was subsequently terminated in May 2024 when we entered into a Sales Agreement (the “2024 Sales Agreement”) with Cowen, replacing and superseding the 2021 Sales Agreement, as amended by the Sales Agreement Amendment. We are authorized to issue and sell up to $300.0 million in shares of our common stock under the 2024 Sales Agreement. We sold no shares during the year ended December 31, 2024 under either the 2021 Sales Agreement, as amended by the Sales Agreement Amendment, or the 2024 Sales Agreement.

Since the entry into the Sales Agreement Amendment in May 2023, we sold 98,101 shares in total under the 2021 Sales Agreement, as amended by the Sales Agreement Amendment, for an aggregate of $25.2 million in gross proceeds, with net proceeds to us of approximately $24.5 million after deducting commissions and other transaction costs. All shares were sold pursuant to our effective Registration Statement and the prospectus supplement relating thereto. In total, we sold 1,334,044 shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of $225.1 million pursuant to the 2021 Sales Agreement, as amended by the Sales Agreement Amendment.

As of December 31, 2024, $300.0 million remained reserved and available for sale under the 2024 Sales Agreement and our related prospectus supplement.

Sales of our common stock, if any, under the 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 Sales Agreement or terminate the Sales Agreement pursuant to its terms.

Loan Facility

In May 2022 we entered into the $250.0 million Loan Facility with Hercules. Under the terms of the Loan Facility, the first $50.0 million tranche (“Tranche 1”) was drawn at closing. On February 3, 2023, we entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Loan Facility (as amended, the “Amended Loan Facility”). Under the Amended Loan Facility, $65.0 million was drawn in 2023 under the second tranche (“Tranche 2”). The third tranche (“Tranche 3”) of $75.0 million became available to us when we obtained FDA approval for Rezdiffra in March 2024. We did not draw on Tranche 3 prior to its expiration in June 2024. On August 22, 2024, we entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Loan Facility (as amended by the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, the “Second Amended Loan Facility”). Under the Second Amended Loan Facility, our borrowing capacity available under Tranche 4 increased to include the $75.0 million available under Tranche 3 that was not utilized by us. After such increase, our current borrowing capacity is $135.0 million under Tranche 4, which is available subject to Hercules’ sole discretion.

In connection with Tranche 1, in 2022 we issued Hercules warrants to purchase 14,899 shares of our common stock, which had a Black-Scholes value of $0.6 million. In connection with Tranche 2, in 2023 we issued to Hercules warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,555 shares of common stock, which had a Black-Scholes value of $0.9 million.

The Loan Facility had a minimum interest rate of 7.45% and adjusted with changes in the prime rate. The First Amendment reduced the interest rate under the Amended Loan Facility to the greater of (i) the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 2.45% and (ii) 8.25%. We were originally scheduled to pay interest-only monthly payments of accrued interest under the Loan Facility through May 1, 2025, for a period of 36 months. In March 2024, the interest-only period was extended to May 1, 2026 when we achieved a milestone when Rezdiffra received FDA approval. The interest-only period can be further extended to May 3, 2027, upon the achievement of regulatory approval milestones and future revenue covenants, subject to compliance with applicable covenants. The Loan Facility originally matured in May 2026, but the maturity date was extended to May 2027 when we achieved a milestone upon receipt of FDA approval in March 2024. The Loan Facility is secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets, other than intellectual property. The Loan Facility includes an end of term charge of 5.35% of the aggregate principal amount, which is accounted for in the loan discount.

The Loan Facility includes affirmative and restrictive financial covenants which commenced on January 1, 2023, including maintenance of a minimum cash, cash equivalents and liquid funds covenant of $35.0 million, which may decrease in certain circumstances if we achieve certain clinical milestones and a revenue milestone. The Loan Facility also includes a revenue-based covenant that could apply commencing at or after the time that the financial reporting became due for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, however the revenue-based covenant will be automatically waived pursuant to

74

Table of Contents

the terms of the Loan Facility at any time in which we maintain, as measured monthly, (i) a certain level of cash, cash equivalents and liquid funds relative to debt outstanding under the Loan Facility or (ii) a market capitalization of at least $1.2 billion. The Loan Facility contains event of default provisions for: our failure to make required payments or maintain compliance with covenants under the Loan Facility; our breach of certain representations or default under certain obligations outside the Loan Facility; insolvency, attachment or judgment events affecting us; and any circumstance which has occurred or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on us, provided that, any failure to achieve approval or certain other milestones under the Loan Facility shall not in and of itself constitute a material adverse effect. The Loan Facility also includes customary covenants associated with a secured loan facility, including covenants concerning financial reporting obligations and certain limitations on indebtedness, liens (including a negative pledge on intellectual property and other assets), investments, distributions (including dividends), collateral, investments, distributions, transfers, mergers or acquisitions, taxes, corporate changes and deposit accounts.

As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding principal under the Loan Facility was $115.0 million. The interest rate as of December 31, 2024 was 9.95%. As of December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all loan covenants and provisions.

March 2024 Public Offering

On March 18, 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.

We intend to use the net proceeds from the 2024 Offering for our commercial activities in connection with the commercial launch of Rezdiffra in the United States and for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, research and development expenditures, ongoing clinical trial expenditures, manufacture and supply of drug substance and drug products, potential ex-U.S. commercialization or partnering opportunities, potential acquisitions or licensing of new technologies, capital expenditures and working capital.

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.

2023 Public Offering

On September 28, 2023, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein, pursuant to which we sold to the underwriters in an underwritten public offering (the “2023 Offering”): (i) 1,248,098 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $151.69 per share, and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “2023 Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 2,048,098 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $151.6899 per 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. The 2023 Offering closed on October 3, 2023.

The gross proceeds of the 2023 Offering was $500.0 million, and we received net proceeds, after deducting the underwriting discount and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by us, of approximately $472.0 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from the 2023 Offering for our clinical and commercial activities in preparation for a potential launch of resmetirom in the United States and for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, research and development expenditures, clinical trial expenditures, manufacture and supply of drug substance and drug products, potential acquisitions or licensing of new technologies, capital expenditures and working capital.

The 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after the date of issuance. A holder of 2023 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

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 summarizes our net cash flow activity (in thousands):

Year Ended December 31,

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $455.6 million, $324.2 million, and $224.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. 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 used in investing activities was $274.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and consisted primarily of $1,131.2 million of purchases of marketable securities for our investment portfolio, partially offset by $863.3 million from sales and maturities of marketable securities from our investment portfolio.

Net cash used in investing activities was $502.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 and consisted primarily of $834.4 million of purchases of marketable securities for our investment portfolio, partially offset by $333.4 million from sales and maturities of marketable securities.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $206.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and consisted primarily of $350.4 million from sales and maturities of marketable securities, partially offset by $143.5 million of purchase of marketable securities for our investment portfolio.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $735.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and consisted primarily of $659.9 million in proceeds from the 2024 Offering, in addition to $76.9 million from proceeds from the exercise of common stock options.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $595.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 and consisted primarily of $472.0 million in proceeds from our 2023 Offering, in addition to $65.0 million in borrowings under the Loan Facility, $34.0 million from proceeds from the exercise of common stock options, and $24.5 million from sales of our common stock under the 2021 Sales Agreement, partially offset by $0.4 million of loan issuance costs.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $313.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and consisted primarily of sales of our common stock under the 2021 Sales Agreement and a registered direct offering of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and common stock in December 2022, and debt borrowings under our Loan Facility.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

We have contractual obligations relating to operating leases at our corporate headquarters facility located in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. Non-lease rent payments relate to a short-term lease in Waltham, Massachusetts. The Company also entered into a lease agreement on December 17, 2024 in Switzerland. As the lease commencement date had not yet occurred as of December 31, 2024, there is no impact to the financial statements.

In 2019, we entered into an operating lease for office space in certain premises located in West Conshohocken, PA (the “Office Lease"), which was further amended by three amendments entered into from 2019 to 2022. In May 2023, we entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Office Lease (the “Fourth Lease Amendment”), which did not have a financial impact. In August 2023, we entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Office Lease (the “Fifth Lease Amendment”). The

76

Table of Contents

Fifth Lease Amendment extends 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 April 2024 and May 2024, we entered into the Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Lease Amendment”) and the Seventh Amendment (the “Seventh Lease Amendment”) to the Office Lease, respectively, leasing additional office space available in the same premises under the Office Lease. The lease for such additional office space commenced in September 2024 and resulted in an incremental $1.2 million right-of-use asset and lease liability being recorded. In August 2024, we entered into the Eighth Amendment (the “Eighth Lease Amendment”) and in October 2024, we entered into the Ninth Amendment (the “Ninth Lease Amendment”) to the Office Lease, further expanding the amount of office space in the same premises. The lease for the additional office space under the Eighth Lease Amendment and Ninth Lease Amendment commenced in November 2024 and resulted in an incremental $0.2 million right-of-use asset and lease liability recorded.

In May 2022 we entered into the $250.0 million Loan Facility. As of December 31, 2024, we had drawn $115.0 million under the Loan Facility. We are scheduled to pay interest-only monthly payments of accrued interest under the Loan Facility through May 1, 2026, which period may be extended to May 3, 2027 upon the achievement of future revenue milestones, and subject to compliance with applicable covenants.

The Roche Agreement 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. A tiered single-digit royalty is payable to Roche on net sales of Rezdiffra, subject to certain reductions.

We have entered into customary contractual arrangements in support of the Phase 3 clinical trials as well as manufacturing costs of Rezdiffra.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk is confined to our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. We regularly review our investments and monitor the financial markets. We invest in high-quality financial instruments, primarily money market funds, U.S. government and agency securities, government-sponsored bond obligations and certain other corporate debt securities, with the effective duration of the portfolio less than 12 months and no security with an effective duration in excess of 24 months, which we believe are subject to limited credit risk. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. Due to the short-term duration of our investment portfolio and the low risk profile of our investments, we believe that an immediate 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our portfolio. We do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk or changes in credit ratings arising from our investments.

In May 2022, we entered into a Loan Facility that has an interest rate that is linked to the prime rate. We do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk given the current principal amount of the loan.

Capital Market Risk

Although we receive product revenues from sales of Rezdiffra, we may in the future depend on funds raised through other sources. One potential source of funding is through equity offerings. Our ability to raise funds in this manner depends upon, among other things, capital market forces affecting our stock price.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation generally may affect us by increasing our cost of labor, clinical trial costs and manufacturing costs. We do not believe inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022. Should global inflation increase in the future, we expect increases in clinical trial, selling, labor and other operating costs. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases of our product. Our inability or failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A. 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 Annual Report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2024.

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.

Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) for our company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). This process includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth in the “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on its assessment under that framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, as stated in its report, which is included herein.

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) for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information.

Director and Executive Officer 10b5-1 Plans

Our policy governing transactions in our securities by our directors, officers and employees permits our directors, officers and employees to enter into trading plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The following table describes the written plans for the sale of our securities that were adopted by our executive officers and directors during the quarter ended December 31, 2024. Each of the plans was entered into during an open trading window and is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) (each a “Trading Plan”).

(1) Each Trading Plan is subject to a “cooling-off” period as set forth in Rule 10b5-1(c). Each Trading Plan may expire on an earlier date if all contemplated transactions are completed before such Trading Plan’s expiration date, upon termination by the broker or the holder of the Trading Plan, or as otherwise provided in the Trading Plan.

(2) Each Trading Plan provides for the sale of shares to be received upon future vesting of certain outstanding equity 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 each 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.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive loss, of stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

F-2

Table of Contents

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Recognition of Product Revenue, Net

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue 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. Revenue is recorded net of variable consideration, which includes prompt pay discounts, returns, chargebacks, rebates, and co-payment assistance. Total product revenue, net, recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 was $180.1 million.

The principal consideration for our determination that performing procedures relating to the recognition of product revenue, net is a critical audit matter is a high degree of auditor effort in performing procedures related to the Company’s revenue recognition.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the revenue recognition process. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing revenue recognized for a sample of revenue transactions by obtaining and inspecting source documents, such as customer contracts, purchase orders, invoices, proof of delivery and subsequent cash receipts, where applicable; (ii) testing the Company’s reconciliation of gross revenue recognized from product sales to third-party information, and (iii) testing, on a sample basis, variable consideration transactions by obtaining and inspecting source documents such as rebate claims received from indirect customers and corresponding payments, and evaluating for consistency with the contractual terms and the Company’s policies.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

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 and premature mortality. MASH is expected to become the leading cause of liver transplantation in the United States and is already the leading cause of liver transplantation among women in the United States. The Company’s medication, Rezdiffra (resmetirom), is a once-daily, oral, liver-directed THR-β agonist designed to target key underlying causes of MASH. In March 2024, Rezdiffra became the first and only FDA-approved therapy for patients with MASH. Rezdiffra became commercially available in the United States in April 2024. Rezdiffra is indicated in conjunction with diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to align with current period presentation.

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded an out-of-period adjustment related to clinical trial accruals that reduced research and development expense, net loss, and accrued liabilities by $36.9 million, $25.6 million of which related to fiscal years 2021 through 2023. The Company evaluated the impact of the error and out-of-period adjustment and concluded the error was not material to any previously filed interim or annual consolidated financial statements, and the out-of-period adjustment for the cumulative correction is not material to the year ended December 31, 2024.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principle of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements 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 ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. 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 entity 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 U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) granted accelerated approval of Rezdiffra (resmetirom) in conjunction with diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with

F-9

Table of Contents

noncirrhotic 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. 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 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 is subject to discount obligations under government programs, including Medicaid and Medicare. 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 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 collectibility of overdue receivables and those determined to be uncollectible are written-off. As of December 31, 2024, 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 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 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.

F-10

Table of Contents

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 years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, 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 year ended December 31, 2024, realized gains and losses on marketable securities were not material. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any realized gains or losses on marketable securities.

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 December 31, 2024 and 2023, 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 years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any transfers of financials assets between Levels 1 and 2. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 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 it 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 Income. 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

F-11

research and development expenses. The Company began capitalizing inventory in March 2024 after FDA approval was granted.

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, milestone payments under licensing agreements, and other costs associated with the Company’s preclinical and clinical programs. 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 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 statements of operations. Patent expenses were approximately $0.7 million, $0.9 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Intangible Assets

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.

F-12

Table of Contents

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 share-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 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 Loss

Comprehensive 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. Changes in unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities represent the only difference between the Company’s net loss and comprehensive loss.

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 years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, 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:

for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Refer to Note 15 for the Company's segment information.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, 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 is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("DISE"), 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.

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 U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other government regulations.

The Company has incurred losses since inception, including approximately $465.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, resulting in an accumulated deficit of approximately $1,802.2 million and $1,336.3 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Management expects to incur losses until the Company is able to generate sufficient revenue from Rezdiffra and any other approved products. To date, the Company has funded its operations primarily through proceeds from sales of the Company’s capital stock and debt financings. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at December 31, 2024 will be sufficient to fund operations past one year from the issuance of these financial statements. 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 planned commercialization costs, product manufacturing, research activities and related clinical expenses if necessary due to liquidity concerns until a date when those concerns are relieved.

8. Long Term Debt

In May 2022 the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Canticle Pharmaceuticals, Inc., entered into the $250.0 million Loan Facility (the “Loan Facility”) with several banks and other financial institutions or entities party thereto (each, a “Lender” and collectively referred to as the “Lenders”), and Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”), in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent for itself and the Lenders. Under the terms of the Loan Facility, the first $50.0 million tranche was drawn at closing. The Company also could draw up to an additional $125.0 million in two separate tranches upon achievement of certain resmetirom clinical and regulatory milestones. A fourth tranche of $75.0 million could have been drawn by the Company, subject to the approval of Hercules. The Loan Facility had a minimum interest rate of 7.45% and adjusted with changes in the prime rate. The Company was originally scheduled to pay interest-only monthly payments of accrued interest under the Loan Facility through May 1, 2025, for a period of 36 months. In March 2024, the interest-only period was extended to May 1, 2026 when the Company achieved a milestone when Rezdiffra received FDA approval. The interest only period can further extended to May 3, 2027, upon the achievement of regulatory approval milestones and future revenue covenants, subject to compliance with applicable covenants. The Loan Facility originally matured in May 2026, but the maturity date was extended to May 2027 when the Company achieved a milestone upon receipt of FDA approval in March 2024. The Loan Facility is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than intellectual property. It includes an end of term charge of 5.35% of the aggregate principal amount, which is 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.

On February 3, 2023, the Company entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Loan Facility (as amended, the “Amended Loan Facility”). Under the Amended Loan Facility, an additional $35.0 million was drawn under a second, expanded, $65.0 million tranche (“Tranche 2”) in February of 2023 following the Company’s achievement of the Phase 3 clinical development milestone. An additional $15.0 million was drawn under Tranche 2 in June of 2023. The remaining $15.0 million available under Tranche 2 was drawn in September of 2023 in accordance with the Amended Loan Facility.

The third tranche (“Tranche 3”) of $75.0 million was unchanged by the First Amendment, and such borrowings became available when the Company achieved a milestone with FDA approval for Rezdiffra in March 2024. The Company did not elect to draw Tranche 3 before it expired in June 2024, but subsequently entered into an amendment to extend the availability of these funds in August 2024. Coincident with the expansion of Tranche 2 borrowing capacity by $15.0 million, the First Amendment reduced the fourth tranche under the Loan Facility (“Tranche 4”) by $15.0 million to $60.0 million.

In connection with the $35.0 million drawn under Tranche 2 at the closing of the First Amendment, $15.0 million drawn in June of 2023, and $15.0 million drawn in September 2023, the Company issued to Hercules and affiliates Tranche 2 Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,555 shares of common stock, which had a Black-Scholes value of $0.9 million. The First Amendment reduced the interest rate under the Amended Loan Facility to the greater of (i) the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 2.45% and (ii) 8.25%. The First Amendment and the Amended Loan Facility summary terms were disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2023.

On August 22, 2024, the Company entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Loan Facility (as amendedby the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, the “Second Amended Loan Facility”). Under the Second Amended Loan Facility, the Company’s borrowing capacity available under Tranche 4 is increased to include the $75.0 million available under Tranche 3 that was not utilized by the Company. After such increase, the Company’s current borrowing capacity is $135.0 million under Tranche 4, which is available subject to Hercules’ sole discretion.

The Loan Facility includes affirmative and restrictive financial covenants which commenced on January 1, 2023, including maintenance of a minimum cash, cash equivalents and liquid funds covenant of $35.0 million, which may decrease in certain circumstances if the Company achieves certain clinical milestones and a revenue milestone. The Loan Facility also includes a revenue-based covenant that could apply commencing at or after the time that financial reporting became due for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, however, the revenue-based covenant will be automatically waived pursuant to the terms of the Loan Facility at any time in which the Company maintains, as measured monthly, (i) a certain level of cash, cash equivalents and liquid funds relative outstanding debt under the Loan Facility or (ii) a market capitalization of at least $1.2 billion. The Loan Facility contains event of default provisions for: the Company’s failure to make required payments or maintain compliance with covenants under the Loan Facility; the Company’s breach of certain representations or default under certain obligations outside the Loan Facility; insolvency, attachment or judgment events affecting the Company; and any circumstance which has occurred or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company, provided that, any failure to achieve a clinical milestone or approval milestone under the Loan Facility shall not in and of itself constitute a material adverse effect. The Loan Facility also includes customary covenants associated with a secured loan facility, including covenants concerning financial reporting obligations, and certain limitations on indebtedness, liens (including a negative pledge on intellectual property and other assets),

investments, distributions (including dividends), collateral, investments, distributions, transfers, mergers or acquisitions, taxes, corporate changes, and deposit accounts.

As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding principal under the Loan Facility was $115.0 million. The interest rate as of December 31, 2024 was 9.95%. As of December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all loan covenants and provisions.

Future minimum payments, including interest and principal, under the loans payable outstanding as of December 31, 2024 are as follows (in thousands):

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 Series A and B Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.0001 per share and are convertible into shares of the 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

F-18

Table of Contents

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 Company intends to use the net proceeds from the 2024 Offering for its commercial activities in connection with the launch of Rezdiffra in the United States and for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, research and development expenditures, ongoing clinical trial expenditures, manufacture and supply of drug substance and drug products, potential ex-U.S. commercialization or partnering opportunities, potential acquisitions or licensing of new technologies, capital expenditures and working capital.

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.

2023 Public Offering

On September 28, 2023, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein, pursuant to which the Company sold to the underwriters in an underwritten public offering (the “2023 Offering”): (i) 1,248,098 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $151.69 per share, and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 2,048,098 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $151.6899 per 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. The 2023 Offering closed on October 3, 2023.

The gross proceeds of the 2023 Offering was $500.0 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 $472.0 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the 2023 Offering for its clinical and commercial activities in preparation for a potential launch of resmetirom in the United States and for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, research and development expenditures, clinical trial expenditures, manufacture and supply of drug substance and drug products, potential acquisitions or licensing of new technologies, capital expenditures and working capital.

The 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after the date of issuance. A holder of 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 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 June 2021, the Company entered into an at-the-market sales agreement (the “Original 2021 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. The Original 2021 Sales Agreement authorized an aggregate offering of up to $200.0 million in shares of our 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 Original 2021 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).

In May 2023, the Company amended the 2021 Agreement (the “Sales Agreement Amendment”), with Cowen, pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, issue and sell an additional $200.0 million in shares of its common stock. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of its common stock under this arrangement. Any shares sold will be sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and prospectus supplement filed pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Sales Agreement Amendment authorizes sales of shares of the Company’s common stock, from time to time, at the Company’s option, through Cowen as its sales agent. Sales of common stock through Cowen may be made by any method

F-19

Table of Contents

that is deemed an “at-the-market” offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and as described in the prospectus supplement.

Since the entry into the Sales Agreement Amendment in May 2023, the Company sold 98,101 shares in total under the 2021 Sales Agreement, as amended by the Sales Agreement Amendment, for an aggregate of $25.2 million in gross proceeds, with net proceeds to the Company of approximately $24.5 million after deducting commissions and other transaction costs.

10. Stock-based Compensation

2015 Stock Plan

The 2015 Stock Plan, as amended (the “2015 Stock Plan”), is our shareholder-approved incentive plan 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 of Directors. 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 December 31, 2024, 1,205,990 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 “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 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 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 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 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance under the Inducement Plan. As of December 31, 2024, 25,176 shares were available for future issuance under the 2023 Inducement Plan.

11. Leases

In 2019, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space located in West Conshohocken, PA (the “Office Lease”), which was later updated by three amendments entered into from 2019 to 2022. In May 2023, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Office Lease (the “Fourth Lease Amendment”), which did not have a financial impact. 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.

In April 2024 and May 2024, the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Lease Amendment”) and the Seventh Amendment (the “Seventh Lease Amendment”) to the Office Lease, respectively, leasing additional office space in the same premises under the Office Lease.

In August 2024, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment (the “Eighth Lease Amendment”) and in October 2024, the Company entered into the Ninth Amendment (the “Ninth Lease Amendment”) to the Office Lease, further expanding the amount of

12. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has a Research, Development and Commercialization 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 by the agreement.

The agreement requires future milestone payments to Roche. In March 2024, upon receiving FDA approval of Rezdiffra, a milestone was achieved and $5.0 million was subsequently paid to Roche. The remaining milestone obligation under the agreement is $3.0 million and is payable upon the Company achieving specified objectives related to future regulatory approval in Europe of resmetirom or a product developed from resmetirom. 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. The Company had no Licensed Product sales for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The Company has entered into customary contractual arrangements and letters of intent in preparation for and in support of the clinical trials as well as manufacturing costs of Rezdiffra.

13. Income Taxes

At December 31, 2024, the Company had federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $850.2 million available to reduce future taxable income, of which $40.4 million will expire between 2031 and 2037. The Company also has state operating loss carryforwards of approximately $823.5 million, available to reduce future taxable income, which expire between 2031 and 2043. The Company has unused federal and state research and development carryforwards of approximately $69.7 million which will begin to expire in 2031.

The Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) limits the amounts of NOL carryforwards that a Company may use in any one year in the event of certain cumulative changes in ownership over a three-year period as described in Section 382 of the IRC. Such change in ownership could limit the Company's utilization of the NOL, and could be triggered by subsequent sales of securities by the Company or stockholders. The deferred tax asset related to the NOL reflected on the financial statements could be affected by this limitation. Although a formal analysis has not been completed, the Company has determined that an ownership change likely occurred for Madrigal during the year ended December 31, 2017. The net operating losses are estimated to be subject to an annual limitation, of which none are expected to expire before becoming available to reduce future taxable income.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. As there is no assurance of future taxable income, a full valuation allowance has been established to offset the deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance increased $125.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Changes in the deferred tax asset will be recorded as an income tax benefit or expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
