ITEM 7.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and the other financial information included elsewhere in this Annual Report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking statements.

For the discussion of the financial condition and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” to our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 21, 2024.

Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company discovering, developing, and commercializing novel therapeutics for the treatment of rare diseases and those with limited treatment options, with a focus on conditions resulting from dysfunction of the immune system. On April 29, 2024, we announced that the U.S. FDA approved our NDA for mavorixafor, which is being marketed in the U.S. under the trade name XOLREMDI, for use as an oral, once-daily therapy in patients aged 12 years of age and older with WHIM (warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and myelokathexis) syndrome, to increase the number of circulating mature neutrophils and lymphocytes. WHIM syndrome (Warts, Hypogammaglobulinemia, Infections, and Myelokathexis) is a rare combined primary immunodeficiency and chronic neutropenic disorder. Concurrent with the U.S. approval of XOLREMDI and pursuant to its Rare Pediatric Disease designation, the FDA granted us a PRV that we sold to another drug sponsor shortly thereafter.

XOLREMDI Commercial Launch

We are currently engaged in our U.S. launch of XOLREMDI in WHIM syndrome, continuing our engagements with physicians and rare disease patient advocacy organizations and our disease-awareness campaign to further the understanding of WHIM syndrome and educate patients and physicians on the importance and benefits of early diagnosis. We have entered into agreements with a third-party logistics organization and a specialty pharmacy to support the distribution of XOLREMDI in the U.S., to mitigate barriers to product access, and to provide a suite of patient support services to help patients through their treatment journey. We submitted a Marketing Authorisation Application (“MAA”) to the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) in early 2025 seeking regulatory approval to commercialize mavorixafor for WHIM syndrome outside of the U.S. Such MAA was accepted for processing by the EMA in January 2025. As discussed further below, on January 13, 2025, we entered into a License and Supply Agreement (the “Norgine Agreement”) with Norgine Pharma UK Limited (“Norgine”), pursuant to which Norgine is granted an exclusive license to distribute, market and sell our drug product for all indications in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. In February 2025, we announced that we had entered into an agreement with taiba rare to distribute and commercialize XOLREMDI for the treatment of WHIM syndrome in select Middle East and North African countries. We continue to explore additional potential commercial and distribution opportunities in geographies where we may be able to efficiently leverage any of our regulatory approvals.

The U.S. approval of XOLREMDI in the WHIM syndrome indication is the first for mavorixafor, which is an orally active, selective antagonist of chemokine receptor CXCR4, a key regulator of the movement of immune cells throughout the body. Due to its ability to increase the mobilization of white blood cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream, we believe that mavorixafor has the potential to provide therapeutic benefit across a variety of immune system disorders in addition to WHIM syndrome.

Phase 2 Clinical Study in Chronic Neutropenia

Following positive results from a Phase 1b clinical study of a single dose of mavorixafor in people with idiopathic, cyclic, and congenital chronic neutropenia (“CN”), we recently completed and announced positive results from a Phase 2 clinical study evaluating the durability of effect, safety, and tolerability of chronic dosing of once-daily oral mavorixafor with or without concurrent treatment with injectable granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (“G-CSF”) in the same patient population.

66

The results from the completed six-month study showed that once-daily oral mavorixafor was generally well tolerated and durably increased participants’ absolute neutrophil counts (“ANC”) both as a monotherapy and in combination with G-CSF, the only therapy approved in the U.S. for severe chronic neutropenia. In addition, when tested in combination with G-CSF, mavorixafor treatment enabled physicians to substantially reduce G-CSF dosing while maintaining normal mean ANC levels.

Phase 3 Clinical Trial in Chronic Neutropenia

We continue to progress our global, pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial, (the “4WARD” study) to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oral, once-daily mavorixafor (with or without stable doses of G-CSF) in people with congenital, acquired primary autoimmune, or idiopathic CN who are experiencing recurrent and/or serious infections. The 52-week trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study aiming to enroll 150 participants. We believe we are on track to complete enrollment in the 4WARD study in the third or fourth quarter of 2025.

We believe that successfully developing and commercializing mavorixafor to provide a new therapeutic option to individuals diagnosed with certain immunodeficiencies has the potential to revolutionize the current treatment landscape, which is principally served by injectable and infused therapies.

2025 Restructuring

In February 2025, we implemented a strategic restructuring of our business operations, workforce and capital spending to focus efforts on advancing mavorixafor to treat those with chronic neutropenia, while also optimizing its U.S. promotion of XOLREMDI (the “2025 Restructuring”). As part of the 2025 Restructuring, we implemented a net reduction of our employee headcount by 43 employees, or approximately 30% of our total workforce. The strategic restructuring activities include (i) discontinuing of research efforts, (ii) closing of our facility in Vienna, Austria, (iii) pausing pre-clinical drug candidate programs, (iv) scaling the U.S. commercial field team and supporting roles across our business and (v) streamlining other spending to support the ongoing clinical development of mavorixafor for the larger population of those with chronic neutropenia. We estimate that the workforce reduction will be substantially completed in the first quarter of 2025. We estimate that it will incur charges of approximately $3.0 million for severance and other employee termination-related costs, primarily in the first quarter of 2025. We expect the 2025 Restructuring will decrease annual spending by $30 to 35 million and believe it will have sufficient funds to support operations into the first half of 2026. The estimate of costs that we expect to incur related to the 2025 Restructuring as well as the decrease in annual spending, and the timing thereof are subject to a number of assumptions and actual results may differ.

We may also incur additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur as a result of, or that are associated with, the actions described for the 2025 Restructuring above.

Norgine Agreement

On January 13, 2025, we entered into the Norgine Agreement, pursuant to which Norgine is granted an exclusive license to distribute, market and sell our product mavorixafor for all indications in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand following regulatory approval. Pursuant to the terms of the Norgine Agreement, we received an upfront payment of €28.5 million upon signing of the agreement and could receive up to €226.0 million upon the achievement of certain regulatory, commercial and sales milestones. We will also receive escalating, double-digit royalties of up to mid-twenties on any future net sales of our drug product by Norgine. Norgine will be responsible for all market access and commercialization activities and will eventually hold all marketing authorizations in the licensed territories. We will manufacture and supply drug product to Norgine for a supply price derived from our product manufacturing cost plus a low double-teen digit margin.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023

The following table summarizes the results of our operations for the periods indicated:

Year Ended December 31,

(in thousands)

Costs and operating expenses:

Product Revenue, Net

Net revenue from the sale of our drug product was $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. There was no product revenue in the prior periods. We sell our approved drug product in the U.S. to a specialty pharmacy that dispenses the product to patients who have been prescribed our drug product by their health-care providers. We also sell our drug product through international distributors. There were no sales to international distributors for the year ended December 31, 2024. Net revenue includes reserves for distributor discounts, estimated rebates that we may owe to U.S. government payors, future co-pay assistance payments that we may owe for patients who enroll in our patient assistance program, and for potential product returns. As we have just recently launched our first drug product in the U.S. in 2024, we have limited history of returns or downstream rebates or co-pay assistance payments. Therefore, we expect to adjust these estimates quarterly as new information becomes available.

Cost of Revenue

For the year ended December 31, 2024, cost of revenue was $0.8 million. There was no cost of revenue in prior periods.

Cost of revenue primarily consists of $0.5 million of amortization of an intangible asset related to accrued and paid milestone payments associated with our Genzyme license agreement, $0.2 million of sales-based royalty payments accrued and paid under our Genzyme license agreement, and $0.1 million of drug product costs.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the development of our product candidates, including employee salaries and related expenses for personnel in our clinical operations, biostatistics, medical affairs, manufacturing and technical, quality and regulatory affairs departments; external expenses incurred in connection with the clinical development of our product candidates, including under agreements with third parties, such as consultants and contract research organizations (“CROs”); the cost of manufacturing drug products for use in our clinical trials, including under agreements with third parties, such as consultants and contract manufacturing organizations (“CMOs”); facilities, depreciation and other expenses, which include direct or allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities and insurance; and costs related to compliance with regulatory requirements. We expense research and development costs as incurred. We capitalized as intangible assets certain milestone payments due under our key in-license agreement.

68

Year EndedDecember 31,

(in thousands)

Direct research and development expenses by product candidate:

Research and development expenses increased by $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year primarily due to an increase in unallocated expense. Unallocated expense increased primarily due to an increase in personnel within our research and development functions, primarily in our clinical operations, biostatistics, medical affairs, manufacturing and technical, and quality organizations.

We expect that our research and development expenses, particularly for our mavorixafor programs, will be relatively consistent over the next several years as we continue to conduct our clinical trials of mavorixafor in chronic neutropenic disorders. Research and development expenses related to our X4P-002 and X4P-003 programs was not significant in 2024 or 2023 relative to our overall research and development expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation for personnel in sales and marketing, executive, finance and administrative functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include direct and allocated facility-related costs, as well as professional fees for legal, patent, consulting, investor and public relations, accounting, and audit services.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $26.0 million to $61.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $35.5 million in the prior year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to an increase of $15.2 million in selling and marketing expenses, including increases in sales and marketing personnel and external marketing costs to support the ongoing launch activities of our approved product, XOLREMDI in the U.S. Selling, general and administrative expenses also increased due to an increase of $10.8 million in general and administrative expenses, primarily due to higher legal, corporate communications, accounting, information technology, and professional service costs associated with the ongoing commercialization of our drug product.

Gain on Sale of Non-Financial Asset

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we entered into contractual arrangement with a third party that transferred the rights to a Priority Review Voucher (“PRV”) awarded to the Company as a result of the FDA’s approval of XOLREMDI. The PRV was accounted for as an intangible asset with no accounting cost basis. The third party purchased the PRV for $105.0 million. As a result of the transfer of control of the PRV to the third party, the Company derecognized the associated intangible asset and recorded a gain through “gain on transfer of nonfinancial assets.” There was no such transaction in year ended December 31, 2023 and we do not expect similar PRV sales in the future.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses decreased by $68.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year. Excluding the impact of the PRV sale, operating expenses increased $36.4 million in the current year as compared to the prior year, primarily due to an increase in head count to support our U.S. launch of XOLREMDI and to support our 4WARD clinical trial. As a result of the strategic restructuring of our workforce and capital spending to focus efforts on advancing mavorixafor to treat those with chronic neutropenia, while also optimizing its U.S. promotion of XOLREMDI, we expect that our operating expenses will decrease by approximately $30.0 million to $35.0 million in 2025.

Other (Expense) Income, Net

Year EndedDecember 31,

(in thousands)

Change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities 1,928 7,074 (5,146)

Research and development incentive program 659 553 106

Foreign currency (losses) gains (327) 1 (328)

Total other (expense) income, net $ (739) $ 6,433 $ (7,172)

The increase in other (expense) income, net, of $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to 2023 was primarily due (i) lower income resulting from the decrease in the fair value of outstanding Class C warrants, which are accounted for as a liability and are remeasured to fair value each period, as compared to the prior year and, (ii) an increase in interest expense associated with the Hercules Loan agreement due to more borrowings outstanding during the current period. These increases were partially offset by higher interest income earned in the current year on our marketable security portfolio as compared to the prior year.

Income Taxes

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded an income tax provision of $0.3 millionrelated to our U.S. operations and related to our Austrian subsidiary. Our tax provision in the year ended December 31, 2023 was related to our U.S. security corporation, which holds our investment portfolio, and our Austrian subsidiary. During the current year, our U.S. entity generated taxable income due to the sale of a PRV voucher, which generated $105.0 million of taxable income, and product revenue, partially offset by available deductions, net operating loss carryforwards and available research and development credits. Our net operating loss carryforwards were limited under IRC 382 due to several qualifying changes in ownership resulting from certain of our equity financings and therefore we were not able to fully offset our taxable income in the current year. We do not expect to record a significant income tax benefit or expense for several years until such time as we begin to generate meaningful and sustained taxable income in our U.S. jurisdiction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

To date, we have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from sales of common stock, warrants and prefunded

warrants for the purchase of our preferred stock and our common stock, sales of preferred stock, proceeds from the issuance of

convertible debt and borrowings under loan and security agreements.

ATM Sales Agreement — On August 7, 2020, we have entered into a Controlled Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreement (“ATM Sales Agreement”), with B. Riley Securities, Inc., Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (collectively the “Sales Agents”), pursuant to which we may offer and sell, at our sole discretion through one or more of the Sales Agents, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million. To date, we have sold approximately $14.3 million of our common stock, net of offering costs, under the ATM Sales Agreement.

LPC Agreement — In January 2022, we entered into an agreement, (the “LPC Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which we have the right to sell to Lincoln Park shares of our common stock, having an aggregate value of up to $50.0 million, subject to certain limitations and conditions, at our request during a 36-month period. The shares of common stock that we may sell under the LPC Agreement are capped at an aggregate of 5.6 million shares, which amount may be adjusted under certain conditions as defined in the LPC Agreement. In January 2022, we raised $3.0 million from the sale of shares of our common stock through the LPC Agreement.

70

Public and Private Equity Offerings — Over the past several years we have funded our operations primarily from sales of common stock, warrants and prefunded warrants through both public offerings and private placements. For example, In March 2022, we sold shares of common stock and, in lieu of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a private placement for gross proceeds of $3.0 million, before offering expenses. In June 2022, we sold shares of common stock and, in lieu of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a private placement for gross proceeds of $55.7 million, before offering expenses. In December 2022, we sold shares of common stock and, in lieu of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a public offering for gross proceeds of $65.1 million, before offering expenses. In May 2023, we sold shares of common stock and, in lieu of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a private placement for gross proceeds of $65.0 million, before offering expenses.

Hercules Loan Agreement — We entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, as most recently amended in August 2023 with Hercules Capital, Inc, (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”). The Hercules Loan Agreement provides for an aggregate term loan facility of up to $107.5 million, less $75.0 million borrowed to date. Additional borrowings are subject to approval of the lender in its sole discretion. Borrowings under the Hercules Loan Agreement accrues interest at a variable rate equal to the greater of (i) 10.15% or (ii) 3.15% plus the Wall Street Journal prime rate and are repayable in monthly interest-only payments through March 1, 2027, and in equal monthly payments of principal and accrued interest until July 1, 2027, which is the maturity date of the loans. The Hercules Loan Agreement requires that we maintain a minimum level of cash of $15.0 million, representing 20% of outstanding borrowings under the Hercules Loan Agreement, and we must comply with certain financial performance milestones.

PRV Sale— As noted above, during the year ended December 31, 2024 we sold a PRV for $105 million to a third party. We do not expect to recognize similar PRV sales in the future.

Norgine Agreement— As noted above, on January 13, 2025, we entered into the Norgine Agreement, pursuant to which we received an upfront payment of €28.5 million in January 2025. Receipt of the upfront payment obligated us to process a sublicense royalty of approximately $4.5 million to Genzyme.

Going Concern— Although we have an approved drug product, sales of the our drug product over the next 12 months will not be sufficient to fund our forecasted operating expenses. Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2024, we had $102.1 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities and an accumulated deficit of $515.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, our net losses were $37.5 million and net cash used in operating activities of $130.9 million.

We have a covenant (the “Minimum Cash Covenant”) under our Hercules Loan Agreement that effective January 31, 2025 requires that we maintain a minimum level of cash of $15 million, representing 20% of outstanding borrowings under the Hercules Loan Agreement. Based on our current operating plan, which includes estimates of anticipated cash inflows from product sales and cash outflows from operating expenses, we believe there is a risk that we will not meet the conditions of the Minimum Cash Covenant within the 12-month period from the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. In such case, Hercules could accelerate the principal payments on the our outstanding loans and we potentially would not have sufficient cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities to settle such obligations. Accordingly, we have concluded that this condition meets the standard for raising substantial doubt about the our ability to continue as a going concern.

To alleviate the risk that the we violate the Minimum Cash Covenant and to finance our future operations, we will need to raise additional capital, which cannot be assured, and/or modify such Minimum Cash Covenant. Unless and until we reach profitability in the future, we will require additional capital to fund our operations, which could be raised through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements, or other collaborations and strategic alliances. If we are unable to obtain funding, we could be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some or all of our research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which would adversely affect our business prospects, or we may be unable to continue operations.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for each of the periods presented:

Year Ended December 31,

(in thousands)

Changes in operating assets and liabilities 2,675 344

Net cash used in operating activities (130,901) (96,512)

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities 66,990 (14,883)

Net cash provided by financing activities 20,294 88,516

Impact of foreign exchange on cash and restricted cash (156) 99

Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash (43,773) (22,780)

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period 100,248 123,028

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period $ 56,475 $ 100,248

Operating Activities: During the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $130.9 million, primarily resulting from our operating losses and other (expense) income, net, of $142.5 millionadjusted for noncash expenses of $8.9 million and changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $2.7 million. Noncash expenses primarily include stock-based compensation expense of $8.2 million and non-cash lease expense of $1.6 million, partially offset by $1.9 million of non-cash gains on the change in fair value of our Class C Warrant liability. The change of $2.3 million in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in accrued expenses due to the timing of an operational milestone payment related to our Genzyme license and increased accrued expenses related to our ongoing clinical trials, partially offset by increases in accounts receivable and inventory. Cash used in operating activities was higher for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year primarily due to higher net losses in the current year.

Investing Activities:During the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by investing activities was $67.0 million, primarily due $105.0 million of cash from the sale of a PRV, partially offset by net investments in short-term marketable securities. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily related to net investments in short-term marketable securities.

Financing Activities: During the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $20.3 million, consisting primarily of proceeds borrowed on our Hercules Loan Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $88.5 million, primarily due to $60.0 million of proceeds from the sale of our common stock and pre-funded warrants, borrowing net of repayments and issuance costs of $19.8 million on our Hercules Loan Agreement, and $8.7 million of proceeds from warrant exercises.

Material Capital Requirements

Debt Obligations

See Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements and in “Sources of Liquidity” above for a description of our debt obligation.

Lease Obligations

We have long-term lease obligations for office and laboratory space. Non-cancellable lease obligations are $1.4 million in 2025, $1.3 million in 2026, and $0.3 million thereafter.

72

Funding Requirements

Based on our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand as of December 31, 2024 and our current operating plan,

we believe that our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will not allow us to fund operations for at least the next 12

months. In order to fund operations and satisfy the Minimum Cash Covenant in the Hercules Loan Agreement, we will be

required to raise additional capital, which may be through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other third-party

funding, marketing and distribution arrangements, or collaborations and strategic alliances.

During 2025, assuming no changes to our current operational expectations, which include the impact of the strategic restructuring we announced in the first quarter of 2025, we expect our operating expenses to be lower than the operating expenses, excluding the sale of non-financial assets, we generated in 2024. However, because of the numerous risks and uncertainties

associated with the future sale of our approved drug product and the research, development, and commercialization of future

product candidates, we are unable to estimate the exact amount of our funding requirements. Our short-term and long-term

funding requirements will depend on and could increase significantly as a result of many factors, including:

• the scope, number, initiation, progress, timing, costs, design, duration, any potential delays, and results of clinical trials and nonclinical studies for our current or future product candidates, particularly our Phase 3 clinical trial of mavorixafor for the treatment of individuals with chronic neutropenic disorders;

•the outcome, timing and cost of regulatory reviews, approvals or other actions to meet regulatory requirements established by the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities, including the potential for the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities to require that we perform more studies for our product candidates than those that we currently expect;

•our ability to obtain marketing approval for our product candidates;

•the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing our patent claims and other intellectual property rights covering our product and product candidates, including any such patent claims and intellectual property rights that we have licensed from Genzyme pursuant to the terms of our license agreement with Genzyme;

•our ability to maintain, expand and defend the scope of our intellectual property portfolio, including the cost of defending intellectual property disputes, including patent infringement actions brought by third parties against us or our product or product candidates;

•our ability to establish and maintain licensing, collaboration or similar arrangements on favorable terms and whether and to what extent we retain development or commercialization responsibilities under any new licensing, collaboration or similar arrangement;

•the success of any other business, product or technology that we acquire or in which we invest;

•the costs of acquiring, licensing or investing in businesses, product candidates and technologies;

•the effect of competing technological and market developments; and

•the costs to operate as a public company

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties. We have effective universal shelf registration statements on Form S-3 registering the saleof our common stock, warrants to purchase our common stock and other securities on terms that we may determine. We have an ATM Sales Agreement with the Sales Agents, pursuant to which we have offered to sell and continue to offer to sell, at our sole discretion through one or more of the Sales Agents, shares of our common stock. We entered into a common stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital, pursuant to which Lincoln Park Capital has committed to purchase, at our request from time to time over a 36-month period, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million, of which $3.0 million have been sold to date, subject to certain limitations.

To the extent that we raise additional capital through future equity offerings or debt financings, the ownership interest of our stockholders may be materially diluted, and the terms of such securities could include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that limit our ability to take specified actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development efforts or future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report, we believe that the following accounting policies are those most critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Accrued Research and Development Expenses. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our accrued research and development expenses. This process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders, communicating with our applicable personnel to identify services that have been performed on our behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service when we have not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of actual costs. The majority of our service providers invoice us in arrears for services performed, on a pre-determined schedule or when contractual milestones are met; however, some require advance payments. We make estimates of our accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in the consolidated financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to them at that time.For our significant vendors, we confirm the accuracy of these estimates with the service providers and makeadjustments, if necessary. Examples of estimated accrued research and development expenses include fees paid to:

•vendors in connection with preclinical development activities;

•CROs and investigative sites in connection with preclinical studies and clinical trials; and

•CMOs in connection with the production of preclinical and clinical trial materials.

We base the expense recorded related to external research and development on our estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to quotes and contracts with multiple CMOs and CROs that supply, conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on our behalf. The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation, vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows. There may be instances in which payments made to our vendors will exceed the level of services provided and result in a prepayment of the expense. Payments under some of these contracts depend on factors such as the successful enrollment of patients and the completion of clinical trial milestones. In accruing service fees, we estimate the time period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period. If the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies from the estimate, we adjust the accrual or the amount of prepaid expenses accordingly.

Although we do not expect our estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred, our understanding of the status and timing of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and may result in reporting amounts that are too high or too low in any particular period. To date, there have not been any material adjustments to our prior estimates of accrued research and development expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation. We measure all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and consultants based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The stock-based awards that we have issued to date include a service-based vesting condition and the expense for these awards is recognized using the straight-line method. We have also issued stock-based awards with performance-based vesting conditions that vest in part upon our achievement of operational milestones and over time thereafter for the subsequent two years as the employee continues to provide services. We assess the probability of achievement of these operational milestones and recognize stock-based compensation for these awards using the accelerated attribution model based on the fair value of the awards as of the date of grant and our best estimate of the date each operational milestone will be achieved. We update our estimates related to the probability and timing of achievement of the operational milestones each period until the award either vests or is forfeited.

74

The fair value of stock option grants is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which uses as inputs the fair value of our common stock and assumptions we make for the volatility of our common stock, the expected term of the stock options, the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the expected term of our stock options and an expected dividend yield. Prior to the closing of the Merger and the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, our board of directors historically determined, as of the date of each option grant and with input from our management, the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist the estimated fair value of our common stock on the date of grant based on a number of objectives and subjective factors. Since the Merger and the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we have relied on the market price of our common stock to determine the fair value on the date of grant. As our common stock does not have a sufficient history of trading, we estimate our volatility based on the historical volatility of publicly traded peer companies. We estimate the expected term of our stock awards by utilizing the “simplified” method, which calculates the expected term based on weighted average midpoint of the award’s vesting and expiration dates. We determine the risk-free interest rate by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. We estimate that no dividends will be paid as we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The assumptions underlying these valuations represent the best estimates of our management, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of our judgment. As a result, if factors or expected outcomes change and we use significantly different assumptions or estimates, the resulting share-based compensation expense could be materially different.

Goodwill.Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method. The total purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to the underlying identifiable net assets, based on their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management’s judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, probabilities of success, discount rates, and asset lives, among other items. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

Goodwill is tested quantitatively for impairment at the reporting unit level annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Examples of such events or circumstances include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal or business climate, an adverse regulatory action or unanticipated competition.

We have determined that we operate in a single operating segment and have a single reporting unit. To perform its quantitative test, we compare the fair value of our single reporting unit to the carrying value of its net assets, including goodwill. We use our market capitalization (common shares outstanding multiplied by the price per share of our common stock) to measure the fair value of the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is not impaired, and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, we measure the impairment loss as the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the reporting unit. See Note 5 for more information on our goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2024.

Intangible Assets, Net. Definite-lived intangible assets related to capitalized milestones under license agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis, which aligns with the pattern over which the economic benefit of the intangible assets are consumed, over their remaining useful lives, which are estimated to be the remaining patent life. If our estimate of the product’s useful life is shorter than the remaining patent life, then a shorter period is used. Amortization expense is recorded as a component of cost of revenue on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when our customers obtain control of the promised good, such as our drug product or licensed intellectual property rights, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods. We performs the following five steps to determine the amount of revenue to recognize: (1) identify the customer and contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price, adjusted for variable consideration resulting from potential returns, rebates, discounts, and down-stream charges; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when we satisfies the performance obligations, which is upon shipment of our drug product to the customer or delivery of licensed rights to the customer.

As part of the accounting for contracts with our customers, we make significant judgments, primarily related to the estimation of the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price upon delivery of our drug product or licensed rights. The variable consideration includes estimates for discounts, product returns, rebates that will be due to U.S. federal and state payors, such as Medicaid, based on agreements that we have with these payors who provide medical insurance to the end patient, and

75

estimated co-pay assistance payments for patients who enroll in our patient assistance program. These variable payments are considered a reduction of the transaction price and must be estimated at the time our product is delivered to the customer. For our license arrangements, we will receive milestone payments based on our achievement of defined operational events or cumulative sales levels achieved. When we conclude that the achievement of such milestones is probable, we include the value of the milestone in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. For product sales, we determine the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price by using the expected value method. Net revenue recognized for each period is the amount for which, based on our estimate, it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, we re-evaluate these estimates based on new information and actual operational trends and if necessary, adjusts these variable consideration estimates. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period of the adjustment.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 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 assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

76

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who serve as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, 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 and includes those policies and procedures that:

•pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

•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

•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.

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.

Management conducted an assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting based on the framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). These criteria are in the areas of control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring. Management’s assessment included extensive documentation, evaluating and testing the design and operating effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting. Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TotheBoard of Directors and Stockholders of X4 Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of X4 Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations and 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”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements 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.

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements 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 of these consolidated financial statements 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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.

External Research and Development Costs

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, costs associated with internal research and development and external research and development services, including drug development and preclinical studies, are expensed as incurred. The Company’s research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $81.6 million, a portion of which relates to external research and development costs. Management recognizes external research and development costs based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using information provided to the Company by its service providers. As disclosed by management, this process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders, communicating with applicable

F-2

personnel to identify services that have been performed, and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service when the Company has not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of actual costs.

The principal consideration for our determination that performing procedures relating to external research and development costs is a critical audit matter is a high degree of auditor effort in performing procedures related to the Company’s external research and development costs.

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, among others, testing external research and development costs on a sample basis, which included tracing relevant information to the underlying contract research organization and contract manufacturing organization agreements, purchase orders, invoices received, and information received from certain third party service providers, where applicable.

X4 PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

X4 Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company discovering, developing and commercializing novel therapeutics for the treatment of rare diseases and those with limited treatment options, with a focus on conditions resulting from dysfunction of the immune system. On April 29, 2024, the Company announced that the FDA approved the Company’s New Drug Application (“NDA”) for mavorixafor, which is being marketed in the U.S. under the trade name XOLREMDI®, for use as an oral, once-daily therapy in patients 12 years of age and older with WHIM syndrome (warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and myelokathexis), to increase the number of circulating mature neutrophils and lymphocytes. WHIM syndrome is a rare combined primary immunodeficiency and chronic neutropenic disorder. The Company has launched XOLREMDI in WHIM syndrome in the U.S. and has filed for regulatory approvals to commercialize mavorixafor outside of the U.S. The U.S. approval of XOLREMDI in the WHIM syndrome indication is the first for mavorixafor, which is an orally bioavailable selective antagonist of chemokine receptor CXCR4, a key regulator of the movement of immune cells throughout the body. Due to its ability to increase the mobilization of white blood cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream, the Company believes that mavorixafor has the potential to provide therapeutic benefit across a variety of immune system disorders in addition to WHIM syndrome. The Company has completed a Phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of mavorixafor as a monotherapy and in combination with human G-CSF in people with certain chronic neutropenic disorders. Results from this six-month Phase 2 study showed mavorixafor was generally well tolerated and able to durably increase study participants’ mean absolute neutrophil count (“ANC”) both as a monotherapy and in combination with G-CSF. The Company is actively enrolling participants in a global, pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of mavorixafor (the 4WARD study) that aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oral once-daily mavorixafor with or without G-CSF in people with congenital or acquired primary autoimmune and idiopathic chronic neutropenia who are experiencing recurrent and/or serious infections. The Company is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts and previously had a research facility in Vienna, Austria.

Going Concern Assessment—The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. Although the Company has an approved drug product, sales of the Company’s drug product over the next 12 months will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating expenses.Since inception, the Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $102.1 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities and an accumulated deficit of $515.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s net losses were $37.5 million and net cash used in operating activities of $130.9 million.

The Company has a covenant (the “Minimum Cash Covenant”) under its Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, as amended, (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”) with Hercules Capital Inc. (“Hercules”), that requires that the Company maintain a minimum level of cash of $15 million, which represents 20% of outstanding borrowings under the Hercules Loan Agreement. Based on its current operating plan, which includes estimates of anticipated cash inflows from product sales and cash outflows from operating expenses, the Company believes there is a risk that it will not meet the conditions of the Minimum Cash Covenant within the 12-month period from the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. In such case, Hercules could accelerate the principal payments on the Company’s outstanding loans and the Company potentially would not have sufficient cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities to settle such obligations. Accordingly, management has concluded that this condition meets the standard for raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company does not have adequate financial resources to fund its forecasted operating costs for at least one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

To alleviate the risk that the Company violates the Minimum Cash Covenant and to finance its future operations, the Company will need to raise additional capital, which cannot be assured, and/or modify such Minimum Cash Covenant. Unless and until the Company reaches profitability in the future, it will require additional capital to fund its operations, which could be raised through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements, or other collaborations and strategic alliances. If the Company is unable to obtain funding, it could be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some or all of its research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which would adversely affect its business prospects, or it may be unable to continue operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the biopharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, uncertainties relating to conducting preclinical and clinical research and development, the manufacture and supply of products and product candidates for clinical and commercial use, obtaining and maintaining regulatory approvals and pricing and reimbursement for the Company’s products and product candidates, market acceptance, managing global growth and operating expenses, availability of additional capital, competition, obtaining and enforcing patents, stock price volatility, dependence on collaborative relationships and third-party service providers, dependence on key personnel, and from time to time government investigations, litigation, and potential product liability claims.

Principles of Consolidation— The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including X4 Pharmaceuticals (Austria) GmbH (“X4 Austria”), which is incorporated in Vienna, Austria, and X4 Therapeutics, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates— The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the accrual of research and development expenses and the impairment or lack of impairment of long-lived assets including operating lease right-of-use assets and goodwill. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require the Company to update its estimates, assumptions and judgments or revise the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Foreign Currency and Currency Translation— The functional and reporting currency of the Company and its foreign subsidiary, X4 Austria, is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar are re-measured into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing as of the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities acquired in a currency other than U.S. dollars are measured at historical exchange rates prevailing at each transaction date. Exchange gains and losses on translation are included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in other income (expense), net.

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Suppliers— Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and research and development incentive receivables. The Company generally maintains cash balances in various operating accounts at financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company’s marketable securities and cash equivalents are invested in high quality, U.S. government obligations such as U.S. Treasury bills and U.S. government agency obligations. The Company has not experienced losses related to its cash and cash equivalents.

The Company is dependent on third-party manufacturers to supply its drug substance and clinical and commercial drug supply for research and development activities in its programs and for commercial sale. The Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a small number of manufacturers to supply it the active pharmaceutical ingredient and formulated drugs related to its commercial drug supply and for its development these programs. The Company’s sales and these programs could be adversely affected by a significant interruption in these manufacturing services or in the supply of active pharmaceutical ingredients and formulated drugs.

Cash and Cash Equivalents— The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consisted of money market funds, treasury bills and federal government agency notes as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Marketable Securities— Marketable securities consist of short-term debt securities classified as available-for-sale having maturities greater than 90 days, but less than 365 days from the date of acquisition (settlement). The Company determines the

F-9

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

appropriate classification of the securities at the time they are acquired and evaluate the appropriateness of such classifications at each balance sheet date. The Company’s marketable securities, which consist of U.S. Treasury securities and federal government agency notes, are classified as available-for-sale securities whose fair value is categorized as Level 2 as their value is based on valuations using significant inputs derived from, or corroborated by, observable market data. The cost of available-for-sale securities sold is based on the specific-identification method. Unrealized gain and losses on available-for-sale are included as a component of other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet and as a component of total comprehensive loss on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss until realized. Realized gains and losses on the sale of marketable securities are determined using the specific-identification method and recorded in other (expense) income, net on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company reviews marketable securities for impairment whenever the fair value of a marketable security is less than the amortized cost and evidence indicates that a marketable security’s carrying amount is not recoverable. Unrealized losses are evaluated for impairment under ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, to determine if the impairment is credit-related or noncredit-related. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding adjustment to earnings, and noncredit-related impairment is recognized in other comprehensive loss, net of taxes. Evidence considered in this assessment includes reasons for the impairment, compliance with our investment policy, the severity of the impairment, collectability of the security, and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security, an industry, or geographic area.

In connection with the Company’s lease agreement for its facilities in Massachusetts and Austria, the Company maintains letters of credit, which are secured by restricted cash, for the benefit of the respective landlord. In accordance with the Company’s Hercules Loan Agreement and as further described in Note 10, the Company at all times must maintain a minimum level of cash of $20.0 million, and effective January 31, 2025 $15.0 million, representing 20% of its outstanding borrowings, in an account or accounts in which Hercules has a first priority security interest as further described in Note 10.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets to the sum to the total of amounts shown in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022:

Restricted cash, non-current (included within other assets) 776 782 1,025

Accounts Receivable— Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from customers, net of expected credit losses. The Company’s measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. To date, the Company has not experienced any credit losses from its customers. The Company’s contracts with its customers have customary payment terms that generally require payment within 90 days. The Company analyzes amounts that are past due for collectability, and periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers. At December 31, 2024, the Company determined an allowance for credit losses was not required based on the deemed credit worthiness of its customers.

Inventory— Prior to receiving approval from the FDA in April 2024 to sell XOLREMDI (mavorixafor) in the United States,

the Company expensed all costs incurred related to the manufacture of mavorixafor as research and development expense due

to the inherent risks associated with the development of a drug candidate, the uncertainty about the regulatory approval process

and the lack of history for the Company in obtaining of regulatory approval of drug candidates. The Company has capitalized

inventory-related costs that have been incurred subsequent to FDA approval, such as the bottling, labelling, and packaging of

drug product, and the acquisition of raw materials for the production of drug substance to be used in commercial drug product.

In connection therewith, the Company values inventories at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. The Company

determines the cost of inventories on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. Raw materials and work in process include all

inventory costs prior to packaging, and labelling, including raw materials and the active pharmaceutical ingredient used in the

drug product. Finished goods include packaged and labelled drug products designated for commercial distribution. Clinical

drug supplies are expensed to research and development. Raw materials and work in process that may be used for either

research and development or commercial sale are classified as inventory until the material is consumed or otherwise allocated

for research and development. If the material may only be used for research and development, it is expensed as research and

development.

Property and Equipment— Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset, as follows:

Estimated Useful Life

Office furniture 3 to 7 years

Computer equipment 3 years

Laboratory equipment 3 to 10 years

Leasehold improvements Shorter of lease term or 10 years

Estimated useful lives are periodically assessed to determine if changes are appropriate. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of these assets and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated from the consolidated balance sheet and any resulting gains or losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period of disposal. Costs for capital assets not yet placed into service are capitalized as construction-in-progress and depreciated once placed into service.

Right-of-Use Assets and Leases— The Company accounts for leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 842,Leases(“ASC 842”). Under ASC 842, at the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Leases with a non-cancellable term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets with associated current and non-current lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. Options to renew a lease are not included in the Company’s initial lease term assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Company will renew the lease. If a lease is cancellable without penalty, the Company excludes from the lease term periods following the cancellation notice period unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will not cancel the lease. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate in calculating the present value of the lease payments. The Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use operating asset may be required for items such as incentives received or accrued rent. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates it incurs to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The Company referenced the effective rate of its Hercules Loan Agreement, as adjusted for differences terms, to determine its incremental borrowing rate for each of its operating leases at lease inception.

In accordance with the guidance in ASC 842, components of a lease are split into lease components and non-lease components. Pursuant to a policy election, the Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a combined lease component.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets— Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets and definite-lived intangible assets. Long-lived assets to be held and used are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Factors that the Company considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends and significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets. If an impairment review is performed to evaluate a long-lived asset group for recoverability, the Company compares forecasts of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the long-lived asset group to its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized in loss from operations when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset group are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss would be based on the excess of the carrying value of the impaired asset group over its fair value. To date, the Company has not recorded any material impairment losses on long-lived assets.

Goodwill— Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method. The total purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to the underlying identifiable net assets, based on their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management’s judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, probabilities of success, discount rates, and asset lives, among other items. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

Goodwill is tested quantitatively for impairment at the reporting unit level annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Examples of such events or circumstances include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal or business climate, an adverse regulatory action, a significant decline in the price of the Company’s common stock, or unanticipated competition.

The Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment and has a single reporting unit. To perform its quantitative test, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is not impaired, and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, the Company measures the amount of impairment loss, if any, as the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the reporting unit. See Note 5 for more information on the Company’s goodwill impairment tests as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Intangible Assets, Net— Definite-lived intangible assets related to capitalized milestones under license agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis, which aligns with the pattern over which the economic benefit of the intangible assets are consumed, over their remaining useful lives, which are estimated to be the remaining patent life. If the Company’s estimate of the product’s useful life is shorter than the remaining patent life, then a shorter period is used. Amortization expense is recorded as a component of cost of revenue on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Fair Value Measurements— Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

•Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

The embedded derivative liability related to the redemption features of the Company’s debt with Hercules as described further below and the Company’s outstanding Class C warrants are carried at fair value and using a Level 3 measurements. The Company’s cash equivalents, which consist of money market funds, which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. government agency obligations, are carried at fair value, determined based on Level 1 and Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy described above. The Company’s marketable securities are carried at fair value determined based on Level 2 inputs. The carrying values of the Company’s accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these liabilities. The carrying value of the Company’s outstanding loan and security agreement with Hercules approximates its fair value at December 31, 2024 because the debt bears interest at a variable market rate and the Company’s credit risk has not materially changed since the inception of the agreement.

Segment Information— The Company has defined its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) as its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment, which comprises its single reportable segment, for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company’s focus is on the research, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics for the treatment of rare diseases. See Note 19 for the Company’s segment disclosures required by ASC 280, as amended by ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 326) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.

Revenue Recognition— The Company records revenue using the guidance of ASC Topic 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers(“ASC 606”), as amended. Upon the approval by the FDA of the sales and marketing of the Company’s lead product candidate, revenue related to its sale and distribution is accounted for under ASC 606. The Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company determines it expects to receive 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: (1) identify the customer and contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price, adjusted for variable consideration resulting from potential returns, rebates, discounts, and down-stream charges; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when the Company satisfies its performance obligations, which is upon shipment of the finished product to the customer.

The Company currently sells its product to a specialty pharmacy, which dispenses the Company’s drug product to patients in the U.S. The Company records revenue when the specialty pharmacy obtains control over the promised good, which occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery to the specialty pharmacy. The Company has concluded that it provides one performance obligation in its contract with its customers: the delivery of drug product that has been approved for sale and distribution by the applicable regulatory authority.

As part of the accounting for its contract arrangements, the Company makes significant judgments, primarily related to the estimation of the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price upon delivery of the Company’s drug product. The variable consideration includes estimates for discounts, product returns, rebates that will be due to U.S. federal and state payors, such as Medicaid, based on agreements that the Company has with these payors who provide medical insurance to the end patient, and estimated co-pay assistance payments for patients who enroll in the Company’s patient assistance program. These variable payments are considered a reduction of the Company’s transaction price with its customer and must be estimated at the time the Company’s product is delivered to the customer. The Company determines the amount of variable consideration by using the expected value method. Net revenue recognized for each period is the amount for which, based on management’s estimate, it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, the Company re-evaluates these estimates based on new information and actual operational trends and if necessary, adjusts these variable consideration estimates. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period of the adjustment.

Cost of Revenue—Cost of revenue consists of drug product costs, amortization of intangible assets associated with license agreements, accrued royalty costs and capitalized internal direct and overhead costs associated with the manufacturing, lot release and distribution of XOLREMDI. Cost of revenue may also include costs related to excess or obsolete inventory adjustment charges and abnormal manufacturing costs.

X4 PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Research and Development Programs— Proceeds under the research and development incentive program from the Austrian government are recognized as other income in an amount equal to the qualifying expenses incurred in each period multiplied by the applicable reimbursement percentage. Incentive income recognized upon incurring qualifying expenses in advance of receipt of proceeds from research and development incentives is recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as research and development incentive receivable.

Research and Development Costs— Costs associated with internal research and development and external research and development services, including drug development and preclinical studies, are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses include costs for salaries, employee benefits, subcontractors, facility-related expenses, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, third-party license fees, laboratory supplies, and external costs of outside vendors engaged to conduct discovery, preclinical and clinical development activities and clinical trials as well as to manufacture clinical trial materials, and other costs. The Company recognizes external research and development costs based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using information provided to the Company by its service providers.

Nonrefundable advance payments for services to be received in the future for use in research and development activities are recorded as prepaid expenses. Such prepaid expenses are recognized as an expense when the related services have been performed, or when it is no longer expected that the goods will be delivered, or the services rendered.

Patent Costs— All patent-related costs incurred in connection with filing and prosecuting patent applications are expensed as incurred due to the uncertainty about the recovery of the expenditure. Amounts incurred are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses.

Debt Issuance Costs— Debt issuance costs consist of payments made to secure commitments under certain debt financing arrangements. These amounts are recognized as interest expense over the period of the financing arrangement using the effective interest method. If the financing arrangement is canceled or forfeited, or if the utility of the arrangement to the Company is otherwise compromised, these costs are recognized as interest expense immediately. The Company’s consolidated financial statements present debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability.

Stock-Based Compensation— The Company measures all stock-based awards granted to employees, nonemployees and directors based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense for those awards, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The Company issues stock-based awards with service-based vesting conditions and records the expense for these awards using the straight-line method. The Company has also issued stock-based awards with performance-based vesting conditions that vest in part upon the Company’s achievement of operational milestones and over time thereafter for the subsequent two years as the employee continues to provide services. The Company assesses the probability of achievement of these operational milestones and recognizes stock-based compensation for these awards using the accelerated attribution model based on the fair value of the awards as of the date of grant and its best estimate of the date each operational milestone will be achieved.

The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified or in which the award recipient’s service payments are classified.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for only the portion of awards that are expected to vest. In developing a forfeiture rate estimate, the Company has considered its historical experience to estimate pre-vesting forfeitures for service-based awards. The impact of a forfeiture rate adjustment is recognized in full in the period of adjustment, and if the actual forfeiture rate is materially different from the Company’s estimate, the Company may be required to record adjustments to stock-based compensation expense in future periods.

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Prior to March 13, 2019, the Company was a private company and lacked company-specific historical and implied volatility information for its common stock. Therefore, the Company estimates its expected common stock price volatility based on the historical volatility of publicly traded peer companies and expects to continue to do so until it has adequate historical data regarding the volatility of its own traded stock price. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employee consultants is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to

F-14

X4 PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield considers the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on common stock and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Derivative Liabilities: Hercules Loan Redemption Feature— The Company’s Hercules Loan Agreement contains a redemption feature that, upon an event of default, provides Hercules the option to accelerate and demand repayment of the debt, including a prepayment premium, or, at its election, charge additional contingent interest fees on any overdue interest or principal payments. The redemption feature meets the definition of a derivative instrument as the repayment of the debt contains a substantial premium, resulting in the redemption feature not being clearly and closely related to its host instrument. Accordingly, the Company classifies this derivative as a liability within other liabilities (non-current) on its consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability was initially recorded at fair value on the date of the Hercules Loan Agreement and is subsequently remeasured to fair value at each reporting date. Changes in the fair value of this derivative liability, which is included in other liabilities, are recognized as a component of other (expense) income, net, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Changes in the fair value of this derivative liability will continue to be recognized until all amounts outstanding under the Hercules Loan Agreement are repaid or until the Hercules Loan Agreement is terminated.

Comprehensive Loss— For the year ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 all foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses were included in net loss as the Company has deemed the functional currency of its foreign subsidiary to be the U.S. Dollar. Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes foreign currencytranslation adjustments of$119 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2019 that were included in other comprehensive loss prior to the designation of the U.S. Dollar as the functional currency of X4 Austria. As of December 31, 2024, unrealized gains on the Company’s marketable debt security portfolio are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet. Once these gains (losses) are realized, they are included in other (expense) income, net, on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Income Taxes— The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements or in the Company’s tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in the provision for income taxes. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent it believes, based upon the weight of available evidence, that it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established through a charge to income tax expense. Potential for recovery of deferred tax assets is evaluated by estimating the future taxable profits expected and considering prudent and feasible tax planning strategies.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the consolidated financial statements by applying a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination by the taxing authorities. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provision for income taxes includes the effects of any resulting tax reserves, or unrecognized tax benefits, that are considered appropriate as well as the related net interest and penalties.

Net Loss per Share—Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2022, in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Class B Warrants, the exercise price of each outstanding Class B Warrant was adjusted to the price of subsequent sales of common stock. Such adjustment is presented as a deemed dividend that adjusts net loss available to common shareholders for purposes of basic earnings per share. The deemed dividend is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, taking into account historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and the estimated remaining life of the outstanding Class B Warrants.

Basic shares outstanding includes the weighted average effect of the Company’s outstanding prefunded warrants, the exercise of which requires little or no consideration for the delivery of shares of common stock. Diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net loss attributable to common stockholders to reallocate undistributed earnings based on the potential impact of dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding

for the period, including potential dilutive shares of common stock. For purpose of this calculation, outstanding stock options, unvested restricted stock units and warrants to purchase shares of common stock are considered potential dilutive shares of common stock.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 326) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). Among other disclosure enhancements, ASU 2023-07 requires that entities with one reportable segment, such as the Company, disclose general information for its reportable segment, such as the title and position of the individual identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which for the Company is the Chief Executive Officer, the types of products and services provided by the reportable segment, the measure of profit or loss reviewed by the CODM to evaluate performance of the reportable segment and other financial results such as significant segment expenses, interest income, interest expense, and depreciation associated with the reportable segment. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 became effective for the Company in these consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024 and were adopted retrospectively. See Note 19, which contains the disclosures required by ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The amendments in ASU 2023-09 require that entities on an annual basis disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items if the effect of those reconciling items that exceed a certain threshold. ASU 2023-09 also requires more disaggregated disclosures related to income taxes paid. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 become effective for the Company in its December 31, 2025 consolidated financial statements. Although the Company continues to evaluate the potential impact of ASU 2023-09, the Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements when adopted.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Topic 220) (“ASU 2024-03”) requiring that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements in ASU 2024-03 may be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company continues to evaluate the potential impact of ASU 2024-03.

3. LICENSE AND FUNDING ARRANGEMENTS

Genzyme Agreement

In July 2014, the Company entered into a license agreement with Genzyme (the “Genzyme Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company was granted an exclusive license to certain patents and intellectual property owned or controlled by Genzyme related to the CXCR4 receptor to develop and commercialize products containing licensed compounds (including but not limited to mavorixafor) for all therapeutic, prophylactic and diagnostic uses, with the exception of autologous and allogenic human stem cell therapy. Under the terms of the Genzyme Agreement, the Company is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize licensed products for use in the field in the United States and at least one other major market country. The Company has the right to grant sublicenses of the licensed rights that cover mavorixafor to third parties.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, a $7.0 million regulatory milestone payment was incurred and paid after receipt of FDA approval of the Company’s NDA on April 26, 2024. The payment was recorded as a definite-lived intangible asset as discussed in Note 8. For the year ended December 31, 2023, a $5.0 million milestone was incurred and paid upon the FDA’s acceptance of the Company’s NDA seeking approval of oral, once-daily mavorixafor in the treatment of people aged 12 years and older with WHIM syndrome. Such amount has been included within research and development expense. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company did not incur any payment obligations to Genzyme under the Genzyme Agreement.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company is obligated to make future milestone payments in the aggregate amount of up to $13.0 million contingent upon the achievement by the Company of certain clinical-stage regulatory and sales milestones with respect to licensed products. The remaining regulatory milestones include (i) $3.0 million for the acceptance by the EMA of the Company’s first drug application and (ii) $5.0 million upon the notification by the EMA of regulatory approval of our first drug application. The Company must also make one-time sales milestone payments of $0.5 million, $1.5 million and $3.0 million on cumulative net

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

sales of $50.0 million, $150.0 million and $300.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company accrued $3.0 million of regulatory milestones, which were achieved and paid in the first quarter of 2025, and $0.5 million of sales-based milestones as a component of the definite-lived intangible asset, as management has concluded that the achievement of these milestones is probable.

The Company is also obligated to pay Genzyme tiered royalties based on net sales of licensed products that the Company commercializes under the agreement. Upon the first sale of the Company’s drug candidate in the U.S., the Company incurred a royalty on annual net sales at a rate of 6%, and will incur royalties on annual net sales at a rate of 6% up to $150.0 million, 10% on the portion of annual net sales between $150.0 million and $300.0 million, and 12.00% thereafter on annual sale over $300.0 million. The Company also incurs a 15% royalty on certain sublicense payments received from sub-licensees.

The obligation to pay royalties for each licensed product expires on a country-by-country basis on the latest of (i) the expiration of licensed patent rights that cover that licensed product in that country, (ii) the expiration of regulatory exclusivity in that country and (iii) ten years after the first commercial sale of such licensed product in that country. Royalty rates are subject to reduction under the agreement in specified circumstances, including in any country if the Company is required to obtain a license from any third party to the extent the Company’s patent rights might infringe the third party’s patent rights, if a licensed product is not covered by a valid claim in that country or if sales of generic products reach certain thresholds in that country. If the Company enters into a sublicense under the Genzyme Agreement, the Company will be obligated to pay Genzyme a percentage of certain upfront fees, maintenance fees, milestone payments and royalty payments paid to the Company by the sublicensee. Under the Genzyme Agreement, the Company will itself manufacture and supply, or enter into manufacturing or supply agreements with Genzyme or third parties to manufacture and supply, clinical and commercial supplies of licensed compounds and each licensed product. The Company is also responsible for all costs related to the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the licensed patent rights.

The Genzyme Agreement will remain in effect until the expiration of the royalty term in all countries for all licensed products. The Genzyme Agreement may be terminated by either party with at least 90 days’ notice in the event of material breach by the other party that remains uncured for 90 days, by either party for insolvency or bankruptcy of the other party, immediately by Genzyme if the Company challenges the licensed patents, or immediately by the Company if a material safety issue arises.

Georgetown Agreement

In December 2016, the Company entered into a license agreement (the “Georgetown Agreement”) with Georgetown University (“Georgetown”) pursuant to which the Company obtained an exclusive, worldwide license to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale and import of products covered by patent rights co-owned by Georgetown. The rights licensed to the Company are for all therapeutic, prophylactic and diagnostic uses in all disease indications in humans and animals.

Under the terms of the Georgetown Agreement, the Company paid a one-time, upfront fee of $50 thousand, and the Company may be required to make milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $800 thousand related to commercial sales of its product. Under the Georgetown Agreement, the Company is solely responsible for all development and commercialization activities and costs in its respective territories. The Company is also responsible for all costs related to the filing, prosecution, and maintenance of the licensed patent rights. The term of the Georgetown Agreement will continue until the expiration of the last valid claim within the patent rights covering the product. Georgetown may terminate the agreement in the event (i) the Company fails to pay any amount and fails to cure such failure within 30 days after receipt of notice, (ii) the Company defaults in its obligation to obtain and maintain insurance and fails to remedy such breach within 45 days after receipt of notice, or (iii) the Company declares insolvency or bankruptcy. The Company may terminate the Georgetown Agreement at any time upon at least 60 days’ written notice. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not incur any payment obligations to Georgetown under the Georgetown Agreement and no milestone payments were made or due under the Georgetown Agreement.

Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Agreement

In December 2016, the Company entered into a license agreement (the “BIDMC Agreement”) with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (“BIDMC”), pursuant to which the Company obtained an exclusive, worldwide license to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale and import products covered by patent rights co-owned by BIDMC. The rights licensed to the Company are for all fields of use. Under the terms of the BIDMC Agreement, the Company paid a one-time, upfront fee of $20 thousand, and the Company is responsible for all future patent prosecution costs. The Company recorded the upfront payment as research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss because the acquired technology represented in-process research and development and had no alternative future use. The term of the BIDMC Agreement will

F-17

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

continue until the expiration of the last valid claim within the patent rights covering the licensed products. BIDMC may terminate the agreement in the event (i) the Company fails to pay any amount and fails to cure such failure within 15 days after receipt of notice, (ii) the Company is in material breach of any material provision of the BIDMC Agreement and fails to remedy such breach within 60 days after receipt of notice, or (iii) the Company declares insolvency or bankruptcy. The Company may terminate the BIDMC Agreement at any time upon at least 90 days’ written notice. The Company did not incur any payment obligations under the BIDMC Agreement during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Dana Farber Cancer Institute Agreement

In November 2020, the Company entered into a license agreement (the “DFCI Agreement”) with the Dana Farber Cancer Institute (“DFCI”) pursuant to which the Company obtained a non-exclusive, royalty-bearing license to use, make, have made, develop, market, import, distribute, sell and have sold products covered by patent rights owned by DFCI. Under the terms of the DFCI Agreement, the Company paid a one-time, upfront fee of $25 thousand and approximately $35 thousand for reimbursement of DFCI’s past patent expenses relating to the patent rights. The DFCI Agreement was terminated effective January 20, 2025 and the Company has no further rights or obligations under the DFCI Agreement.

Research and Development Incentive Program

The Company participates in a research and development incentive program provided by the Austrian government whereby the Company is entitled to reimbursement by the Austrian government for a percentage of qualifying research and development expenses incurred by the Company’s subsidiary in Austria. Under the program, the reimbursement rate for qualifying research and development expenses incurred by the Company through X4 Austria is 14% for the current year.

The Company recognizes incentive income from Austrian research and development incentives when qualifying expenses have been incurred, there is reasonable assurance that the payment will be received, and the consideration can be reliably measured. Management has assessed the Company’s research and development activities and expenditures to determine which activities and expenditures are likely to be eligible under the research and development incentive program described above. At each reporting date, management estimates the reimbursable incentive income available to the Company based on available information at the time.

As of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the amounts due under these programs were $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively, which is included in research and development incentive receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of income related to the program on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss within “other income”.

Abbisko Agreement

In July 2019, the Company entered into a license agreement with Abbisko (the “Abbisko Agreement”). Under the terms of the Abbisko Agreement, the Company granted Abbisko the exclusive right to develop, manufacture and commercialize mavorixafor in mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau, the (“Abbisko Territory”). The agreement provides Abbisko with the exclusive rights in the Abbisko Territory to develop and commercialize mavorixafor in combination with checkpoint inhibitors or other agents in multiple oncology indications. The Company retains the full rest-of-world rights to develop and commercialize mavorixafor outside of Greater China for all indications and the ability to utilize data generated pursuant to the Abbisko collaboration for rest-of-world development. Assuming mavorixafor is developed by Abbisko in six indications, the Company would be entitled to milestone payments of up to $214.0 million, which will vary based on the ultimate sales, if any, of the approved licensed products. In addition, upon commercialization of mavorixafor in the Abbisko Territory, the Company is eligible to receive a tiered royalty, with a percentage range in the low double-digits, on net sales of approved licensed products. Abbisko is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize mavorixafor in the Abbisko Territory. Abbisko has responsibility for all activities and costs associated with the further development, manufacture and commercialization of mavorixafor in the Abbisko Territory.

The Company determined that the future sale of clinical and commercial supply are optional goods that will be subject to the customer’s future purchasing decisions and do not represent performance obligations in the Abbisko Agreement. The Company concluded that the amount to be charged for the clinical supply will be reflective of market value and, therefore, the Abbisko Agreement does not provide a discount on such supply that would be accounted for as material right at the outset of the contract. In arriving at these conclusions, the Company considered the complexity of the manufacturing process for the licensed compound and the potential ability for Abbisko to obtain the compound directly from other manufactures in the future. The Company

expects that it will recognize revenue at a point in time when such clinical supply (and commercial supply, if applicable) is delivered to Abbisko in the future.

The Company re-evaluates the transaction price, including its estimated variable consideration for milestones included in the transaction price and all constrained amounts, in each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur.

All marketable securities are classified as short-term investments as all are due within one year and include investments in U.S. Treasury notes, U.S. Treasury bills and federal government agency notes. The amortized cost of each investment, individually and in aggregate, approximates fair value. The Company evaluated each marketable security for impairment that is other-than-temporary and concluded that no marketable security was impaired as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The Company’s cash equivalents consisted of money market funds invested in U.S. Treasury securities and direct investments in U.S. Treasury securities. The money market funds were valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, which represents a Level 1 measurement. U.S. Treasury securities were valued by using inputs observable in active markets for similar securities, which represents a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy.

Valuation of Embedded Derivative Liability—The fair value of the embedded derivative liability recognized in connection with the Company’s Hercules Loan Agreement, which is associated with additional fees due to Hercules upon events of default, was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of this embedded derivative liability, which is reported within other non-current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, is estimated by the Company at each reporting date based, in part, on the results of third-party valuations, which were prepared based on a discounted cash flow model that considered the timing and probability of occurrence of a redemption upon an event of default, the potential amount of prepayment fees or contingent interest upon an event of default and the Company’s risk-adjusted discount rate of 17%. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of this derivative liability was $10 thousand.

Warrant Liabilities—

PIPE Warrant Liability— On July 6, 2022, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of its common stock in a private placement (the “ PIPE Warrants”). Upon issuance, the holder’s exercise of the PIPE Warrants was conditioned on the Company increasing it authorized shares. As there were insufficient authorized shares available at the time of issuance, the PIPE Warrants were classified as a liability and measured at fair value. On September 1, 2022, upon shareholder approval of the increase to the Company’s authorized shares, the PIPE Warrants met all criteria required for permanent equity accounting and, accordingly, the Company remeasured the fair value of the warrant liability through “other (expense) income, net”and reclassified the fair value of the warrant liability to additional paid-in capital.

Class C Warrant Liability— In December 2022, the Company issued Class C Warrants for the purchase of shares of its common stock in a public offering. The Class C Warrants are accounted for as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet and are adjusted to fair value at period end through “change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities” on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
