We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about our business, the industry in which we operate, and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or development. These statements speak only as of the date of this report and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, or otherwise.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this report. While we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, the information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all

Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Note 1.    Description of the Business

Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Recursion, the Company, we or our) was originally formed as a limited liability
company on November 4, 2013 under the name Recursion Pharmaceuticals, LLC. In September 2016, the Company converted to a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Recursion is a clinical stage TechBio company decoding biology to industrialize drug discovery. The Recursion Operating System (OS), a platform built across diverse technologies, enables the Company to map and navigate trillions of biological and chemical relationships within the Recursion Data Universe, one of the world’s largest proprietary biological and chemical datasets. The Company integrates physical and digital components as iterative loops of atoms and bits scaling wet lab biology and chemistry data organized into virtuous cycles with computational tools to rapidly translate in silico hypotheses into validated insights and novel chemistry.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1.1 billion. The Company expects to incur substantial operating losses in future periods and will require additional capital to advance its drug candidates. The Company does not expect to generate significant revenue until the Company successfully completes significant drug development milestones with its subsidiaries or in collaboration with third parties, which the Company expects will take a number of years. In order to commercialize its drug candidates, the Company or its partners need to complete clinical development and comply with comprehensive regulatory requirements. The Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties similar to those of other companies of the same size within the biotechnology industry, such as the uncertainty of clinical trial outcomes, uncertainty of additional funding and a history of operating losses.

The Company has funded its operations to date primarily through the issuance of convertible preferred stock and the issuance of Class A common stock (see Note 8, “Common Stock” for additional details). Additionally, the Company has received payments from its strategic partnerships (see Note 9, “Collaborative Development Contracts” for additional details). Recursion will likely be required to raise additional capital. As of March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any unconditional outstanding commitments for additional funding. If the Company is unable to access additional funds when needed, it may not be able to continue the development of its products or the Company could be required to delay, scale back or abandon some or all of its development programs and other operations. The Company’s ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if not achieved on a timely basis, could materially harm its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Recursion believes that the Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating expenses and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2023.

It is management’s opinion that these condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements. Revenue and net loss for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2024, the SEC issued rule 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. The new rule requires Recursion to provide certain disclosures in the footnotes to the
5

financial statements of climate-related information. These disclosures include the impact of severe weather and other natural conditions on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations, to the extent they are material. Recursion will also need to disclose a rollforward of the beginning and ending balances of its carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates (RECs), if they are a material component of meeting the Company’s climate-related targets and goals. Additionally, the Company will need to disclose whether and, if so, how severe weather events and other natural conditions and disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans materially affected estimates and assumptions in the financial statements.

The standard’s effective dates, if adopted, will be phased in depending on the disclosure requirement starting the annual period ending December 31, 2025. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of the new climate-related disclosure requirements pending judicial review. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this rule will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-9, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new standard updates disclosure requirements for Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 primarily by requiring additional information in the income tax rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. This standard will be effective for Recursion starting the annual period ending December 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard will not impact Recursion’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-7, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The standard requires new disclosures related to ASC 280 including: disclosing significant segment expenses by category; requiring all the ASC 280 disclosures for Companies with a single reportable segment and; requiring an increased frequency of the ASC 280 disclosures. Recursion must apply the amendments retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented. This standard will be effective for Recursion starting the annual period ending December 31, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not impact Recursion’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

Note 3.    Supplemental Financial Information

Tempus agreement

In November 2023, Recursion entered into a five-year agreement with Tempus Labs, Inc. (Tempus) to purchase access to their records of patient-centric multimodal oncology data and use rights for therapeutic development purposes. This data will be used to improve the training of Recursion’s artificial intelligence and machine learning models and is expected to accelerate Recursion’s drug discovery process. Recursion is making annual payments, ranging between $22.0 million and $42.0 million, up to $160.0 million in aggregate, to Tempus in cash or equity at the Company’s option. The equity value is determined by using the seven-trading day period dollar volume-weighted average price (VWAP) for Recursion Class A common stock ending on the day immediately preceding the date that is five business days prior to the payment date.

Recursion is expensing the record purchases as “Research and Development” expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the records are purchased. To the extent that the Recursion payments to Tempus are greater than or less than the records purchased amount, Recursion records the applicable amount to “Other Current Assets” or “Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, Recursion had recorded $16.0 million within “Other Current Assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to the Tempus agreement.

Note 4. Acquisitions

Valence Discovery Inc.

On May 16, 2023, Recursion acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Valence Discovery Inc. (Valence), a privately-held machine learning (ML) / artificial intelligence (AI) digital chemistry company. The integration of Valence’s AI-based chemistry engine into Recursion’s operating system will allow Recursion to expand its technology-enabled drug discovery process. This will accelerate Recursion’s digital chemistry capabilities and its drug discovery process.

The acquisition of Valence was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The aggregate upfront consideration for the acquisition of Valence consisted of 2.2 million shares of Recursion Class A common stock, 4.4 million shares of a subsidiary of Recursion, exchangeable for shares of Recursion’s Class A common stock, 792 thousand shares issuable upon exercise of stock options held by Valence equity award holders and deferred liabilities for additional consideration. An insignificant number of the aforementioned shares of consideration had not yet been issued as of March 31, 2024.The final number of shares to be issued has not yet been finalized and so are subject to change.

The following table summarizes total consideration:

(in thousands)
Fair value of Recursion Class A common stock $11,096 
Fair value of Exchangeable stock22,473 
Fair value of equity awards issued to Valance equity award holders1,933 
Deferred liabilities for additional consideration396 
Total consideration$35,898 

The following table summarizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

(in thousands)
Cash$4,235 
Other receivables536 
Intangible asset - technology15,000 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities(872)
Deferred income taxes(3,265)
Total identifiable net assets15,634 
Goodwill20,264 
Total assets acquired and liabilities assumed$35,898 
8


The intangible asset related to Valence’s ML and AI digital chemistry platform. The estimated fair value of the intangible asset was determined using a cost approach. This valuation technique provides the fair value of an asset based on estimates of the total costs to develop the technology. Significant inputs used to determine the total cost includes the length of time required and service hours performed by Company employees. The technology intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its four-year useful life.

Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized. The goodwill recognized represents the assembled workforce and expected synergies, including the ability to: (i) leverage Valence’s digital chemistry platform across Recursion’s business; (ii) leverage Valence’s ML and AI capabilities; (iii) integrate Recursion’s data and operating system into Valence’s platform; and (iv) accelerate Recursion’s pipeline. Goodwill was also impacted by the establishment of a deferred tax liability for the acquired identifiable intangible assets which have no tax basis. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

Recursion’s condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included no net revenue and a $2.9 million operating loss associated with Valence’s operations. As the acquisition occurred in May 2023, the Company is still finalizing the allocation of the purchase price to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price included in the current period balance sheet is based on the best estimate of management and is preliminary and subject to change. The primary area subject to change relates to the valuation of other receivables. To assist management in the allocation, the Company engaged external specialists. The Company will finalize the amounts recognized as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. The Company expects to finalize these amounts as soon as possible but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Cyclica Inc.

On May 25, 2023, Recursion acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Cyclica Inc. (Cyclica), a privately-held Company that has built a digital chemistry software suite which enables mechanism of action deconvolution and generative chemistry suggestions based on desired targets. Cyclica’s platform is expected to enhance the optimization of Recursion’s compounds for efficacy while minimizing liabilities through generative machine learning approaches.

The acquisition of Cyclica was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The aggregate upfront consideration for the acquisition of Cyclica consisted of 5.8 million shares of Recursion Class A common stock, cash payments, 1.0 million shares issuable upon exercise of stock options held by Cyclica equity award holders and deferred liabilities for additional consideration. Approximately 182 thousand of the aforementioned shares of Class A common stock consideration had not yet been issued as of March 31, 2024.

The following table summarizes total consideration:

(in thousands)
Fair value of Recursion Class A common stock $49,915 
Cash6,505 
Fair value of equity awards issued to Cyclica equity award holders3,852

The intangible assets are related to Cyclica’s digital chemistry platforms. The estimated fair value of the intangible assets were determined using a cost approach. This valuation technique provides the fair value of an asset based on estimates of the total costs to develop the technology. Significant inputs used to determine the total cost includes the length of time required and service hours performed by Company employees. The technology intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their three-year useful lives.

Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized. The goodwill recognized represents the assembled workforce and expected synergies, including the ability to: (i) leverage Cyclica’s digital chemistry platform across Recursion’s business; (ii) leverage Cyclica’s ML and AI capabilities; (iii) integrate Recursion’s data and operating system into Cyclica’s platform; and (iv) accelerate Recursion’s pipeline. Goodwill was also impacted by the establishment of a deferred tax liability for the acquired identifiable intangible assets. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

Recursion’s condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included immaterial net revenue and a $3.8 million operating loss associated with Cyclica’s operations. As the acquisition occurred in May 2023, the Company is still finalizing the allocation of the purchase price to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price included in the current period balance sheet is based on the best estimate of management and is preliminary and subject to change. The primary area subject to change relates to the valuation of the other receivables. To assist management in the allocation, the Company engaged external specialists. The Company will finalize the amounts recognized as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. The Company expects to finalize these amounts as soon as possible but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

The unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and was based on the historical financial information of Recursion, Valence and Cyclica. In order to reflect the occurrence of the acquisitions on January 1, 2022 as required, the unaudited pro forma financial information includes adjustments to reflect the incremental amortization expense to be incurred based on the fair values of the identifiable intangible assets acquired and the additional stock compensation expense associated with the issuance of equity compensation related to the acquisitions. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the consolidated results of operations would have been had the acquisitions been completed on January 1, 2022. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information is not a projection of the future results of operations of the combined company nor does it reflect the expected realization of any cost savings or synergies associated with the acquisitions.

Note 5.    Leases

The Company has entered into various long-term real estate leases primarily related to office, research and development and operating activities. The Company’s leases have remaining terms from under 1 to 9 years and some of those leases include options that provide Recursion with the ability to extend the lease term for five years. The options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Recursion entered into lease modifications resulting in a decrease to the right-of-use asset and lease liability of $3.1 million and an increase to the right-of-use asset and lease liability $3.5 million, respectively. The modifications had no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In January 2024, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space in London, England with approximately 6,792 square feet (the “London Lease”). The right of use began January 2024 when the control of the asset was obtained. The London Lease term is 5 years with a five-year renewal option. The London Lease includes provisions for escalating rent payments. Total fixed payments are expected to be approximately $7.9 million, additionally there will be variable expenses including building service charges related to the lease.

In February 2024, the Company entered into a lease agreement for the supercomputer for the exclusive use of physical space in a data center of approximately 1,851 square feet (the “Data Center Lease”). The right of use is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2024 and the Data Center Lease term is 5 years with a five-year renewal option. The lease includes provisions for escalating rent payments. Total fixed lease payments are expected to be approximately $13.0 million with additional variable expenses, including utilities and tax expenses. The Company did not control the space or any of the assets being constructed as of March 31, 2024 and therefore no right of use asset or lease liability was recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2024.

Amortization expense was $3.4 million and $152 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in amortization expense was due to the intangible assets purchased in the acquisitions, (see Note 4, “Acquisitions” for additional details). Amortization expense was included in Research and Development in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. No indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

Contract Obligations

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts with clinical research organizations, drug manufacturers and other vendors for preclinical and clinical research studies, research and development supplies and other services and products for operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice and are cancellable contracts.

Indemnification

The Company has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences, while the officer or director is or was serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The Company purchases directors and officers liability insurance coverage that provides for reimbursement to the Company for covered obligations and this is intended to limit the Company’s exposure and enable it to recover a portion of any amounts it pays under its
12

indemnification obligations. The Company had no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as no amounts were probable.

Employee Agreements

The Company has signed employment agreements with certain key employees pursuant to which, if their employment is terminated following a change of control of the Company, the employees are entitled to receive certain benefits, including accelerated vesting of equity incentives.

Legal Matters

The Company may, from time to time, be involved in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. An unfavorable resolution of any such matter could materially affect the Company’s future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2021, the Company entered into a lease agreement for laboratory and office space (the Industry Lease) with Industry Office SLC, LLC (the landlord). In March 2023, the Company sent a letter to the landlord detailing numerous construction delays and irregularities, deficiencies and deviations from applicable structural drawings and/or non-conforming conditions with applicable building codes. On June 23, 2023, the landlord filed a lawsuit against the Company (Industry Office SLC, LLC v. Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Case No. 230904627) in the Third District Court for Salt Lake County, State of Utah (the Court), alleging anticipatory repudiation and breach of contract. The Plaintiff seeks monetary damages and attorney’s fees. In July 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss. In September 2023, Recursion was granted its motion to dismiss, and the Court provided the landlord until October 23, 2023, to amend and re-file the dismissed complaint. On October 23, 2023, the landlord filed an amended complaint again alleging anticipatory repudiation, breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing (the Amended Complaint) and seeks monetary damages and attorney’s fees. In November 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint. The Court set a hearing on the Company’s motion to dismiss in May 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had no liability recorded for these events as an unfavorable outcome was not probable.

In connection with the Industry Lease, in September 2023, the Company filed claims in the Court against the landlord alleging, among other things, breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation (the Counterclaims). In October 2023, the landlord filed an answer and denied the Company’s allegations asserted in the Counterclaims. The Company and the landlord are currently engaged in discovery. On October 27, 2023, the Company filed a motion for partial judgment on the pleadings, seeking judgment on one of its four counterclaims. The Court set a hearing on the Company’s motion for partial judgment on the pleadings in May 2024. The Company is unable to estimate the possible amount or range of amounts associated with the Counterclaims.

Note 8. Common Stock

Each share of Class A common stock entitles the holder to one vote per share and each share of Class B common stock entitles the holder to 10 votes per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders. Common stockholders are entitled to receive dividends, as may be declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no dividends had been declared.

At-The-Market Offering

In August 2023, the Company entered into an Open Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (the “Sales Agent”), to provide for the offering, issuance and sale of up to an aggregate amount of $300.0 million of its Class A common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” (ATM) offerings. As of March 31, 2024, an amount of $208.2 million remained available for future sales under the Sales Agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company has sold 921 thousand shares and received net proceeds of $10.9 million under the agreement. Recursion is not required to sell additional shares under the Sales Agreement. The Company will pay the Sales Agent a commission of up to 3% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from all sales of Class A common stock. The Sales Agreement continues until the earlier of selling all shares available under the Sales Agreement or terminated by written notice from either of the parties. The ATM Offering is being made under a prospectus supplement dated August 8, 2023, and related prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange
13

Commission pursuant to our automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR (Registration No. 333-264845).

NVIDIA Private Placement

In July 2023, Recursion entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement for a private placement with NVIDIA Corporation (2023 Private Placement), pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 7.7 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $6.49 per share for net proceeds of approximately $49.9 million.

Valence Acquisition Exchangeable Shares

In May 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Valence, the Company entered into an agreement to issue up to 5.9 million shares of Class A common stock (the “Exchange Shares”), that may be issued upon exchange, retraction or redemption of exchangeable shares of a subsidiary of Recursion. Each exchangeable share of the subsidiary of Recursion entitles the holder to exchange those shares on a one-for-one basis for Recursion’s Class A common stock. The shares are entitled to receive dividends economically equivalent to dividends declared by Recursion, are non-voting and are subject to customary adjustments for stock splits or other reorganizations. In addition, the Company may require all outstanding exchangeable shares to be exchanged into an equal number of Class A common stock upon the occurrence of certain events and at any time following the seventh anniversary of the closing of the Valence acquisition. The exchangeable shares are substantially the economic equivalent of the Class A shares and classified as common stock within the Company’s stockholders’ equity. The Company’s calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding includes the exchangeable shares. As of March 31, 2024, 4.2 million Exchangeable shares have been redeemed for Class A shares.

Registration Rights Agreements

Tempus agreement
In November 2023, in connection with the Tempus Agreement, the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement (or a prospectus supplement to an effective registration statement on Form S-3ASR that will become automatically effective upon filing with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e)) with the SEC, for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued or issuable under the Tempus Agreement. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in December 2023 to register shares issued to Tempus for the initial license fee under the Tempus Agreement for resale.

After registration of any shares issued to Tempus under the Tempus Agreement, the Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration statement effective until such date that all shares issued to Tempus covered by such registration statement have been sold or are able to be publicly sold by relying on Rule 144 of the Securities Act without registration.

NVIDIA Private Placement
In July 2023, in connection with the 2023 Private Placement with NVIDIA, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued in such transaction. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in August 2023 to register the resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued to NVIDIA. The Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement continuously effective until such date that all registrable securities under the agreement have been sold. In the event the holders cannot sell their shares due to certain circumstances causing the registration statement to be ineffective, the Company must pay each holder of shares outstanding on the date and each month thereafter 1% of the aggregate purchase price with the maximum payable amount of 5% of the aggregate purchase price. As of March 31, 2024, there was no accrued liability related to this agreement, as it was not probable that a payment would be required.

Acquisitions
In May 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Valence, the Company entered into a Registration Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock and Exchange Shares issued or issuable in such transaction. A registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-272281) was filed to register
14

the shares for resale by the holders. The registration statement must remain effective for a period of not less than three years.

In May 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Cyclica, the Company entered into a Registration Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued in such transaction. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in June 2023 to register the shares for resale by the holders. The registration statement must be continuously effective until the earlier of the date that all shares have been sold thereunder or are able to be publicly sold by relying on Rule 144 of the Securities Act without registration.

2022 Private Placement
In October 2022, in connection with the 2022 Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued in such transaction. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in October 2022 to register the resale of the shares of Class A common stock by the Purchasers. The agreement must remain effective until registrable securities covered by the agreement have been publicly sold by the holders or all shares cease to be registrable securities. In the event the holders cannot sell their shares due to certain circumstances causing the agreement to be ineffective, the Company must pay each holder of shares outstanding on the date and each month thereafter 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the holder without limit until the agreement is cured. As of March 31, 2024, there was no accrued liability related to this agreement, as it was not probable that a payment would be required.

Class A and B Common Shares Authorization

In April 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B. The rights of the holders of Class A and B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting and conversion. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share and is convertible at any time into one share of Class A common stock.

All Class B common stock is held by Christopher Gibson, Ph.D., the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), or his affiliates. As of March 31, 2024, Dr. Gibson and his affiliates held outstanding shares of Class B common stock representing approximately 25% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding shares. This voting power may increase over time as Dr. Gibson vests in and exercises equity awards outstanding. If all the exchangeable equity awards held by Dr. Gibson had been fully vested, exercised and exchanged for shares of Class B common stock as of March 31, 2024, Dr. Gibson and his affiliates would hold approximately 26% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding shares. As a result, Dr. Gibson will be able to significantly influence any action requiring the approval of Recursion stockholders, including the election of the Board of Directors; the adoption of amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws; and the approval of any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or other major corporate transaction.

Note 9. Collaborative Development Contracts

Roche and Genentech

Description
In December 2021, Recursion entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Roche and Genentech (collectively referred to as Roche). Recursion is constructing, using the Company’s imaging technology and proprietary machine-learning algorithms, unique maps of the inferred relationships amongst perturbation phenotypes in a given cellular context with the goal to discover and develop therapeutic small molecule programs in a gastrointestinal cancer indication and in key areas of neuroscience. Roche and Recursion will collaborate to select certain novel inferences with respect to small molecules or targets generated from the Phenomaps for further validation and optimization as collaboration programs. Roche and Recursion may also combine sequencing datasets from Roche with Recursion’s Phenomaps and collaborate to generate new algorithms to produce multi-modal maps from which additional collaboration programs may be initiated. For every collaboration program that successfully identifies potential therapeutic small molecules or validates a target, Roche will have an option to obtain an exclusive license to develop and commercialize such potential therapeutic small molecules or to exploit such target in the applicable exclusive field.

15

Pricing
In January 2022, Recursion received a $150.0 million non-refundable upfront payment from the Company’s collaboration with Roche. Recursion is eligible for additional milestone payments based on performance progress of the collaboration. Each of the Phenomaps requested by Roche and created by Recursion may be subject to either an initiation fee, acceptance fee or both. Such fees could exceed $250.0 million for 16 accepted Phenomaps. In addition, for a period of time after Roche’s acceptance of certain Phenomaps, Roche will have the option to obtain, subject to payment of an exercise fee, rights to use outside the collaboration the raw images generated in the course of creating those Phenomaps. If Roche exercises its external use option for all 12 eligible Phenomaps, Roche’s associated exercise fee payments to Recursion could exceed $250.0 million. Under the collaboration, Roche may initiate up to 40 programs, each of which, if successfully developed and commercialized, could yield more than $300.0 million in development, commercialization and net revenue milestones for Recursion, as well as tiered royalties on net revenue.

Accounting
This agreement represents a transaction with a customer and therefore is accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. Recursion has determined that it has three performance obligations, one related to gastrointestinal cancer and two in neuroscience. These performance obligations are for performing research and development services for Roche to identify targets and medicines. The performance obligations also include potential licenses related to the intellectual property. The Company concluded that licenses within the contract are not distinct from the research and development services as they are interrelated due to the fact that the research and development services significantly impact the potential licenses. Any additional services are considered customer options and will be considered as separate contracts for accounting purposes.

The Company has determined the transaction price to be $150.0 million, comprised of the upfront payment. Recursion will fully constrain the amounts of variable consideration to be received from potential milestones considering the stage of development and the risks associated with the remaining development required to achieve each milestone. Recursion will re-evaluate the transaction price each reporting period.

The transaction price was allocated to the performance obligations based on the estimated relative stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation as determined using an expected cost plus margin approach. The Company recognizes revenue over time based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs to perform the research and development services. Recursion determined that this method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of control to the customer. This method of recognizing revenue requires the Company to make estimates of total costs to provide the services required under the performance obligations. Significant inputs used to determine the total costs included the length of time required, service hours performed by Company employees and materials costs. A significant change in these estimates could have a material effect on the timing and amount of revenue recognized in future periods. Recursion has estimated the completion of the performance obligations by 2026.

Additional Revenue Disclosures

Of the revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, primarily all of it was included in the unearned revenue balance as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Revenue recognized was from upfront payments received at the inception of the related contracts, which decreased the initial unearned revenue recognized. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $6.5 million of costs incurred to fulfill a contract on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within “Other Current Assets.”

Unearned revenue was classified as short-term and long-term on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the Company’s estimate of revenue that will be recognized during the next twelve months.

Note 10. Stock-Based Compensation

In April 2021, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company adopted the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2021 Plan). The Company may grant stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and other forms of stock-based compensation. As of March 31, 2024, 18.9 million shares of Class A common stock were available for grant.

Exercisable as of March 31, 20248,909,647 $5.49 6.2$51,959 

The fair value of options granted to employees is calculated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The weighted-average grant-date fair values of stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were $6.41 and $5.32, respectively.

The following weighted-average assumptions were used to calculate the grant-date fair value of stock options:

As of March 31, 2024, $43.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized as expense over approximately the next three years.

RSUs

Equity awards granted to employees primarily consist of RSUs and generally vest over four years. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of RSUs generally is determined based on the number of units granted and the quoted price of Recursion’s common stock on the date of grant.

17

The following table summarizes Recursion’s RSU activity during the three months ended March 31, 2024:

Outstanding as of March 31, 202415,631,543 $8.63 

The fair market value of RSUs vested was $13.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, $124.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs is expected to be recognized as expense over approximately the next three years.

Note 11. Income Taxes

The Company did not record any U.S. income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company has historically incurred operating losses and maintains a full valuation allowance against its U.S. net deferred tax assets. Foreign taxes were insignificant during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Net operating losses (NOLs) and tax credit carry-forwards are subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and may become subject to annual limitation due to ownership changes that occur under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended and similar state provisions. These ownership changes may limit the amount of carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. In general, an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, results from transactions increasing the ownership of certain shareholders or public groups in the stock of a corporation by more than 50% over a three-year period. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was not limited on its NOLs and tax credit carry-forwards. The Company will continue to monitor future ownership changes for potential Section 382 limitations.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Utah, California and Massachusetts. The Company is not currently under examination in any of these jurisdictions. The Company is subject to income tax examinations on all federal returns since the 2017 tax return.

Note 12. Net Loss Per Share

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Recursion calculated net loss per share of Class A, Class B and Exchangeable common stock using the two-class method. Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares and the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options and other contingently issuable shares. For periods presented in which the Company reports a net loss, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and as such are excluded from the calculation. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported a net loss and therefore basic and diluted loss per share were the same.

The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights, of the holders of the Company’s Class A, Class B and the Exchangeable common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. As a result, the undistributed earnings for each period are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A, Class B and the Exchangeable common stock as if the earnings for the period had been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis and the resulting amount per share for Class A, Class B and the Exchangeable common stock was the same during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Class A, Class B and Exchangeable common stock:

Note 13. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:

Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the company has the ability to access;
Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market; and
Level 3 — Valuations using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and include the use of judgment by the company's management about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company is required to maintain a cash balance in a collateralized account to secure the Company’s credit cards. Additionally, the Company holds restricted cash related to an outstanding letter of credit issued by J.P. Morgan, which was obtained to secure certain Company obligations relating to tenant improvements. Recursion also holds restricted cash related to a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation grant.

Overview

Recursion is a leading clinical stage TechBio company decoding biology to industrialize drug discovery. Central to our mission is the Recursion Operating System (OS), a platform built across diverse technologies that enables us to map and navigate trillions of biological, chemical and patient-centric relationships across over 50 petabytes of proprietary data. We frame this integration of the physical and digital components as iterative loops, where scaled ‘wet-lab’ biology, chemistry and patient-centric experimental data are organized by ‘dry-lab’ computational tools in order to identify, validate and translate therapeutic insights. We believe Recursion’s unbiased, data-driven approach to understanding biology will bring more, new and better medicines at higher scale and lower cost to patients.

There are three key value-drivers at Recursion:
An expansive pipeline of internally developed clinical and preclinical programs focused on precision oncology and genetically driven rare diseases with significant unmet need and market opportunities that could potentially exceed $1 billion in annual sales in some cases
Transformational partnerships with leading biopharma and technology companies to map and navigate intractable areas of biology, identify novel targets and develop potential new medicines by using advanced computational and data resources
An industry-leading dataset intentionally designed to capitalize on computational tools and accelerate value created through our pipeline, partnerships and technology products

21

Recursion OS.jpg

We drive value by scaling and leveraging the Recursion OS to generate, aggregate and integrate over 50 petabytes of data spanning large language model derived disease relevance and target-compound relationships, predicted protein-ligand binding interactions for ~36 billion compounds, over 250 million total staining and multi-timepoint live-cell (brightfield) phenomics experiments, over 1 million whole transcriptomics experiments, tens of thousands of ADME experiments using our automated DMPK module, InVivomics and multimodal precision oncology patient data. This dataset has been curated using over 50 human cell types, our cell manufacturing facility which has produced over 1 trillion hiPSC-derived neuronal cells since 2022, our in-house chemical library of over 1.7 million compounds, an in silico library of over 1 trillion small molecules and other capabilities. We have built proprietary software applications and AI/ML models within the Recursion OS which predict and navigate over 6 trillion biological and chemical relationships. With our approach and our team of over 500 Recursionauts that is balanced between life scientists and computational and technical experts, we endeavor to turn drug discovery into a search problem, where we map and navigate biology in an unbiased manner in order to translate insights into more, new and better medicines at higher scale and lower cost to patients.

Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) (REC-994): Our Phase 2 SYCAMORE clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of two doses of REC-994 in participants with CCM. The primary endpoint of the study is safety and tolerability. Secondary and exploratory endpoints, including clinician measured outcomes, imaging of CCM lesions, patient reported outcomes and selected biomarkers, will be evaluated. This trial was fully enrolled in June 2023 with 62 participants, where the vast majority of participants who completed 12 months of treatment have entered the long-term extension study. We expect to share Phase 2 data in Q3 2024.
Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) (REC-2282): Our adaptive Phase 2/3 POPLAR clinical trial is a randomized, two part study of REC-2282 in participants with progressive NF2-mutated meningiomas. Part 1 of the study is ongoing and is exploring two doses of REC-2282 in approximately 23 adults and 9 adolescents, with enrollment in adults expected to complete in Q2 2024. We expect to share Phase 2 safety and preliminary efficacy data in Q4 2024.
Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) (REC-4881): Our Phase 1b/2 TUPELO clinical trial is an open label, multicenter, two part study of REC-4881 in participants with FAP. Part 1 is complete and enrollment in Part 2 has commenced. We expect to share Phase 2 safety and preliminary efficacy data in H1 2025.
AXIN1 or APC Mutant Cancers (REC-4881): Our Phase 2 LILAC clinical trial is an open label, multicenter study of REC-4881 in participants with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic cancer with AXIN1 or APC mutations. This study was initiated at the end of 2023 with the first participant dosed in Q1 2024. Since that time, multiple participants are now enrolled. We expect to share Phase 2 safety and preliminary efficacy data in H1 2025.
Clostridioides difficile Infection (REC-3964): REC-3964 is a first-in-class C. difficile toxin inhibitor and the first new chemical entity developed by Recursion, with promising preclinical efficacy data seen in relevant models (superiority versus bezlotoxumab). Full Phase 1 data from our healthy volunteers study will be presented at the World Congress on Infectious Diseases in Paris in June 2024. We expect to initiate a randomized Phase 2 study in patients at high risk for C. difficile infection recurrence in 2024.
Advanced HR-Proficient Cancers (RBM39): RBM39 is a novel CDK12-adjacent target identified by the Recursion OS. We intend to position our lead candidate as a single agent for the potential treatment of advanced HR-proficient cancers including ovarian and other solid tumors.We expect to submit an IND in H2 2024 and anticipate initiating a Phase 1 open label study of our lead candidate in participants with relapsed/refractory cancer. The primary endpoint of the study will be safety and tolerability. Secondary endpoints will explore pharmacokinetics and preliminary signs of anti-tumor activity.
Undisclosed Indication in Fibrosis (Target Epsilon): This program originated under our initial fibrosis collaboration with Bayer and we have since in-licensed from Bayer all rights to this program. We are advancing our lead candidate through IND-enabling studies with IND submission expected in the near-term.

Platform
Supercomputer Expansion: We worked with our partner NVIDIA to design and build BioHive-2, our next generation supercomputer with over 500 H100 GPUs. We have nearly completed the build out of BioHive-2 and began performance benchmarking tests. We believe that the performance of our supercomputer may place BioHive-2 in the top 50 of the next TOP500 list, making it one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world across any industry and the most powerful supercomputer owned and operated by any biopharma company. These computational resources, paired with Recursion’s vast datasets and data generation capabilities, enable the construction of Recursion’s large foundation models for biology, chemistry and causal patient outcomes.
Whole-Genome Transcriptomics Map: We continue to focus on key technologies that enhance our ability to generate, extract and validate novel insights for therapeutic advancements. Over the past year, we have scaled our transcriptomics technology in order to validate phenotypic-insights and relate to patient-derived RNA sequencing data. In April, we announced sequencing our 1 millionth transcriptome. We believe that we are one of the largest transcriptomics sequencers in the world and are advancing the development of a whole-genome knockout transcriptomics map, which we expect to complete in the coming quarters. Such platform capabilities are important for curating scaled datasets that are relatable and provide a more complete understanding of biology, chemistry and patient outcomes.
23

Active Learning: We have been applying active learning approaches to predict where our OS should generate and enrich biological and chemical datasets via phenotypic and ADME compound profiling across existing and new cellular contexts. These capabilities enable Recursion to rapidly construct multiomics maps that are enriched for areas of biology and chemistry that may be of high value for translating insights into therapeutic programs. We believe that such approaches enable Recursion to more rapidly expand its data moat and see active learning capabilities as an important step towards autonomous drug discovery.

Partnerships
Helix Collaboration: Recursion entered into a multi-year agreement with Helix to access hundreds of thousands of de-identified records including Helix’s Exome+(R) genomic data and data from longitudinal health records. Recursion plans to use this data to train causal AI models and design biomarker and patient stratification strategies across broad disease areas. The Helix dataset expands Recursion’s integration of real-world patient data and complements Recursion’s access to Tempus’ oncology data.
Transformational Collaborations: We continue to advance efforts to discover potential new therapeutics with our strategic partners in the areas of undruggable oncology (Bayer) as well as neuroscience and a single indication in gastrointestinal oncology (Roche-Genentech). In the near-term, there is the potential for option exercises associated with partnership programs, option exercises associated with map building initiatives or data sharing and additional partnerships in large, intractable areas of biology or technological innovation.

Financing and Operations

We were incorporated in November 2013. In April 2021, we closed our Initial Public Offering (IPO) and issued 27.9 million shares of Class A common stock at a price of $18.00 per share, raising net proceeds of $462.4 million. Prior to our IPO, we had raised $448.9 million in equity financing from investors in addition to $30.0 million in an upfront payment from our collaboration with Bayer AG (Bayer). In January 2022, we received an upfront payment of $150.0 million from our collaboration with Roche. See Note 9, “Collaborative Development Contracts” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the collaboration with Roche. In October 2022, we issued 15.3 million shares of our Class A common stock at a purchase price of $9.80 per share in the 2022 private placement to qualified institutional buyers and institutional accredited investors for net proceeds of $143.7 million, after deducting fees and offering costs of $6.6 million. In July 2023, we issued an aggregate of 7.7 million shares of our Class A common stock at a purchase price of $6.49 per share in the 2023 Private Placement with NVIDIA Corporation for net proceeds of approximately $49.9 million. In August 2023, we entered into an Open Market Sales Agreement with Jefferies LLC to provide for the offering, issuance and sale of up to an aggregate amount of $300.0 million of its Class A common stock of which $208.2 million remain available for future sales. The Company has sold 12.9 million shares and received net proceeds of $89.1 million under the agreement. See Note 8, “Common Stock” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Sales Agreement.

We use the capital we have raised to fund operating and investing activities across platform research operations, drug discovery, clinical development, digital and other infrastructure, creation of our portfolio of intellectual property and administrative support. We do not have any products approved for commercial sale and have not generated any revenues from product sales. We had cash and cash equivalents of $296.3 million as of March 31, 2024. Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.

Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Our net losses were $91.4 million and $65.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, our accumulated deficit was $1.1 billion.

We anticipate that we will need to raise additional financing in the future to fund our operations, including the potential commercialization of any approved product candidates. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate significant product revenue, we expect to finance our operations with our existing cash and cash equivalents, any future equity or debt financings and upfront, milestone and royalty payments, if any, received under current or future license or collaboration agreements. We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Total research and development expense$67,560 $46,677 $20,883 45 %

Research and development expenses account for a significant portion of our operating expenses. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred in performing activities including:

costs to develop and operate our platform;
costs of discovery efforts which may lead to development candidates, including research materials and external research;
costs for clinical development of our investigational products;
costs for materials and supplies associated with the manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients, investigational products for preclinical testing and clinical trials;
personnel-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation for employees engaged in research and development functions;
costs associated with operating our digital infrastructure; and
other direct and allocated expenses incurred as a result of research and development activities, including those for facilities, depreciation, amortization and insurance.

We recognize expenses associated with third-party contracted services as they are incurred. Upon termination of contracts with third parties, our financial obligations are generally limited to costs incurred or committed to date. Any advance payments for goods or services to be used or rendered in future research and product development activities pursuant to a contractual arrangement are classified as prepaid expenses until such goods or services are rendered.

Significant components of research and development expense include the following allocated by development phase: Platform, which refers primarily to expenses related to screening of product candidates through hit
26

identification; Discovery, which refers primarily to expenses related to hit identification through development of candidates; and Clinical, which refers primarily to expenses related to development of candidates and beyond.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the increase in research and development expenses compared to the prior period was across all development phases as we continue to expand and upgrade our platform, including our chemical technology, machine learning and transcriptomics platform. Our discovery costs increased as we advanced our preclinical pipeline including our work on Target Epsilon. Our clinical costs grew as we continued to progress through our various clinical trials.

General and Administrative Expense

Total general and administrative expense$31,408 $22,874 $8,534 37 %

We expense general and administrative costs as incurred. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries; including employee benefits and stock-based compensation. General and administrative expenses also include facilities, depreciation, information technology, professional fees for auditing and tax, legal fees for corporate and patent matters and insurance costs.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the increase in general and administrative expense compared to prior period was primarily driven by an increase in salaries and wages of $3.9 million and increases in software and depreciation expense.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the decrease in interest income compared to prior period related to a decrease in earnings on cash and cash equivalents in money market funds.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

We have not yet commercialized any products and do not expect to generate revenue from the sales of any product candidates for at least several years. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $296.3 million and $391.6 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

We have incurred operating losses and experienced negative operating cash flows and we anticipate that the Company will continue to incur losses for at least the foreseeable future. Our net loss was $91.4 million and $65.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $1.1 billion and $967.6 million, respectively.

27

We have financed our operations through the private placements of preferred stock and Class A common stock issuances. As of March 31, 2024, we have received net proceeds of $448.9 million from the sale of preferred stock and $745.0 million from Class A common stock issuances. See Note 8, “Common Stock” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on Class A common stock issuances. Additionally, as of March 31, 2024, we have received proceeds of $183.0 million from our strategic partnerships. See Note 9, “Collaborative Development Contracts” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on the Roche partnership.

Cash Flows

The following table is a summary of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for each of the periods presented below:

Three months ended

(in thousands)20242023
Cash used in operating activities$(102,300)$(73,316)
Cash used in investing activities(6,653)(5,340)
Cash provided by financing activities13,897 1,922 

Operating Activities
Cash used by operating activities increased during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as a result of higher costs incurred for research and development and general and administrative due to the Company’s expansion and upgraded capabilities.

Cash used by operating activities increased during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as a result of an upfront payment of $150.0 million from our strategic partnership with Roche received during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Investing Activities
Cash used by investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 consisted primarily of property and equipment purchases of $6.7 million, which included $2.9 million for a project to upgrade the BioHive supercomputer and $2.7 million for lab equipment purchases.

Cash used by investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted primarily of property and equipment purchases of $5.2 million, which included $1.7 million for a project to upgrade the BioHive supercomputer and $2.3 million for lab equipment purchases.

Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily included proceeds from equity incentive plans of $1.9 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting estimates and policies is included in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2023 Annual Report. There were no significant changes in the Company’s application of its critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2, “Basis of Presentation” in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates of our cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents primarily consisted of money market funds. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest income sensitivity, which is affected by changes in U.S. interest rates. A hypothetical 100 basis point decrease in interest rates as of as of March 31, 2024, would have an insignificant effect on net loss in the ensuring year.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Our employees and our operations are primarily located in the United States and Canada and our expenses are generally denominated in U.S. and Canadian dollars. We also have entered into a limited number of contracts with vendors for research and development services that have underlying payment obligations denominated in foreign currencies. We are subject to foreign currency transaction gains or losses on our contracts denominated in foreign currencies. To date, foreign currency transaction gains and losses have not been material to our financial statements, and we do not have a formal hedging program with respect to foreign currency. A 10% increase or decrease in current exchange rates would have an insignificant effect on our financial results during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer (our Chief Executive Officer) and principal financial officer (our Chief Financial Officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives as management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to the material weakness in internal controls related to our revenue and unearned revenue process including the operating effectiveness of management review controls over the estimated costs and time to completion and controls to validate the completeness and accuracy of information used to calculate revenue and unearned revenue related to its license agreement disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Remediation of Material Weakness

The following remediation actions have been taken as of March 31, 2024:

Improvement of documentation procedures regarding specific inquiries related to the cost model used for revenue recognition and the resulting responses
Improvement of documentation for the review of changes in cost model due to responses from inquiries
Provided additional documentation for internal reports to validate and support completeness and accuracy of reports
29

Improvement of documentation of these processes was done with the input of our third-party consultants who continue to be involved in the design and enhancement of the revenue recognition policies and procedures

While significant progress has been made to enhance our internal controls over financial reporting, we are still in the process of implementing and testing these remediated processes, procedures and controls. We believe the above actions will be effective in remediating the material weakness described above. However, the material weakness cannot be considered remediated until controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. As such, we were unable to conclude that the material weakness has been remediated as of March 31, 2024.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of March 31, 2024, management is in the process of integrating the internal controls of the acquired businesses into Recursion's existing operations as part of planned integration activities. With the exception of the steps taken to remediate the material weakness as described above, there were no other changes in financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The risk factors set forth below represent new risk factors or those containing changes to the similarly titled risk factor included in the sections titled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. of our 2023 Annual Report.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR RELIANCE ON THIRD PARTIES

Third parties that perform some of our research and preclinical testing or conduct our clinical trials may not perform satisfactorily or their agreements may be terminated.

We currently rely, and expect to continue to rely, on third parties to conduct some aspects of research and preclinical testing and clinical trials. The third parties include CROs, clinical data management organizations, medical institutions, and principal investigators. Any of these third parties may fail to fulfill their contractual obligations, including by not meeting deadlines for the completion of research, testing, or trials, or we or they may terminate their engagements with us. If any of our relationships with these third parties terminate, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative third parties on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we need to enter into alternative arrangements, such negotiations could delay product development activities. Termination of our relationships with foreign third parties can also occur if U.S. legislation, sanctions, trade restrictions, or other U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements, prohibitions or restrictions, limit or prevent our ability to enter into arrangements with such foreign third parties. For example, we currently rely on foreign CROs and CDMOs, including an affiliate/subsidiary of WuXi AppTec Co., Ltd. (WuXi AppTec) in China that has been listed as a biotechnology company “of concern” in proposed U.S. legislation known as the BIOSECURE Act (recently introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives as H.R. 7085 and in the U.S. Senate as S.3558). While the BIOSECURE Act as currently proposed would restrict purchasing of services or products from WuXI AppTec and other companies of concern in China, it would only impact U.S. companies that contract with or receive funding from the U.S. government, which means that our company would not be directly impacted by the BIOSECURE Act. However, passage of the BIOSECURE Act could potentially lead the way for further legislation, sanctions, or restrictions that could potentially impact our third-party arrangements with companies such as WuXi AppTec which could delay or impact clinical trials and consequently delay or obstruct regulatory approval of our drug candidates.

Our reliance on third parties for research and development activities reduces our control over these activities, but does not relieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we remain responsible for ensuring that each of our respective clinical trials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial, as well as applicable legal, regulatory, and scientific standards. We also are required to register ongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a government-sponsored database within certain timeframes. In addition, the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities require compliance with good clinical practices (GCP) guidelines for conducting, recording, and reporting the results of clinical trials to assure that data and reported results are credible, reproducible, and accurate, and that the rights, integrity, and confidentiality of trial participants are protected. Regulatory authorities enforce GCP compliance through periodic inspections of trial sponsors, principal investigators, and trial sites.

If we or any of the third parties fail to comply with applicable GCP regulations, some or all of the clinical data generated in our clinical trials may be deemed unreliable, and the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may require us to perform additional nonclinical or clinical trials or to enroll additional patients before approving our marketing applications. In addition, if we or the third parties fail to comply with our stated protocols or applicable laws and regulations during the conduct of clinical trials, we or the third parties could be subject to warning letters or
31

enforcement actions by the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities, which could result in civil penalties or criminal prosecution, as well as adverse publicity that harms our business.

We also will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for any drug candidates we may develop if these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines, or conduct clinical trials in accordance with our stated protocols or regulatory requirements. As a result, we may be delayed or unable to successfully commercialize our drug candidates.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

(a) Sales of Unregistered Securities

Stock Option Exercises
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we issued 38 thousand shares of our Class A common stock to our employees, directors, advisors and consultants upon the exercise of stock options under our Key Personnel Incentive Stock Plan for aggregate consideration of approximately $10 thousand. The shares of Class A common stock issued upon the exercise of stock options were issued pursuant to written compensatory plans or arrangements with our employees, directors, advisors and consultants, in reliance on the exemption provided by Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relative to transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering, to the extent an exemption from such registration was required. All recipients either received adequate information about our company or had access, through employment or other relationships, to such information.

Item 5. Other Information.

B.Nonuse and Nondisclosure. During and after the term of this Agreement, Advisor will hold in the strictest confidence, and take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information, and Advisor will not (i) use the Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever other than as necessary for the performance of the Services on behalf of the Company, or (ii) subject to Advisor’s right to engage in Protected Activity (as defined below), disclose the Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of an authorized representative of the Company, except that Advisor may disclose Confidential Information to the extent compelled by applicable law; provided however, prior to such disclosure, Advisor shall provide prior written notice to Company and seek a protective order or such similar confidential protection as may be available under applicable law. Advisor agrees that no ownership of Confidential Information is conveyed to the Advisor. Without limiting the foregoing, Advisor shall not use or disclose any Company property, intellectual property rights, trade secrets or other proprietary know-how of the Company to invent, author, make, develop, design, or otherwise enable others to invent, author, make, develop, or design identical or substantially similar designs as those developed under this Agreement for any third party.

C.Further Assurances.

7.INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR; BENEFITS
A.Independent Contractor. It is the express intention of the Company and Advisor that Advisor perform the Services as an independent contractor to the Company.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Advisor is not authorized to bind the Company to any liability or obligation or to represent that Advisor has any such authority. Advisor agrees to furnish (or reimburse the Company for) all tools and materials necessary to accomplish this Agreement and shall incur all expenses associated with performance. Advisor acknowledges and agrees that Advisor is obligated to report as income all compensation received by Advisor pursuant to this Agreement. Advisor agrees to and acknowledges the obligation to pay all self-employment and other taxes on such income.
B.Benefits. The Company and Advisor agree that Advisor will receive no Company-sponsored benefits from the Company where benefits include, but are not limited to, paid vacation, sick leave, medical insurance and 401k participation. If Advisor is reclassified by a state or federal agency or court as the Company’s employee, Advisor will become a reclassified employee and will receive no benefits from the Company, except those mandated by state or federal law, even if by the terms of the Company’s benefit plans or programs of the Company in effect at the time of such reclassification, Advisor would otherwise be eligible for such benefits.
8.MISCELLANEOUS

There are no intended third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement, except as expressly stated. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, Advisor may not sell, assign or delegate any rights or obligations under this Agreement.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein and supersedes all prior written and oral agreements, discussions, or representations between the Parties (for the avoidance of doubt, the Separation Agreement and Release between Advisor and the Company and any surviving documents therein will continue in full force and effect). Advisor represents and warrants that Advisor is not relying on any statement or representation not contained in this Agreement. To the extent any terms set forth in any exhibit or schedule conflict with the terms set forth in this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Parties in such exhibit or schedule.
D.Headings. Headings are used in this Agreement for reference only and shall not be considered when interpreting this Agreement.
E.Severability. If a court or other body of competent jurisdiction finds, or the Parties mutually believe, any provision of this Agreement, or portion thereof, to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the Parties, and the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.
F.Modification, Waiver. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in a writing signed by the Parties.

H.Attorneys’ Fees.

I.Signatures. This Agreement may be signed in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, with the same force and effectiveness as though executed in a single document.
J.Protected Activity Not Prohibited. Advisor understands that nothing in this Agreement shall in any way limit or prohibit Advisor from engaging in any Protected Activity. For purposes of this Agreement, “Protected Activity” shall mean filing and/or pursuing a charge, complaint, or report with, or otherwise communicating, cooperating, or participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by, any federal, state or local government agency or commission, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Government Agencies”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Advisor agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of any information that may constitute Confidential Information to any parties other than the Government Agencies. Advisor further understands that “Protected Activity” does not include the disclosure of any Company attorney-client privileged communications or privileged attorney work product. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Advisor is notified that an individual will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official (directly or indirectly) or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if (and only if) such filing is made under seal. In addition, an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the individual’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Advisor understands that nothing in this Agreement, including its definition of Confidential Information, limits Advisor’s rights to discuss or disclose Advisor’s compensation or the terms or conditions of Advisor’s service relationship with the Company to the extent protected by applicable law, or otherwise impairs Advisor from assisting other Company current or former service providers in the exercise of their rights under applicable law..

2.Services. The Services will include, but will not be limited to, the following: Advisor will provide strategic and operational support to the Company's business development function and any other mutually agreed upon transition assistance.
3.Compensation.
A.During the period that Advisor provides Services under this Agreement (the “Advisory Period”), the Company will pay Advisor the following advisory fees to Advisor: (i) for each month that Advisor provides Services under this Agreement from February 2024 through July 2024, a total of $25,000 (which constitutes the full advisory fee for the first twenty-five (25) hours of Service performed by Advisor during such month) plus $1,000 for each hour of Services performed during such month in excess of twenty-five (25) hours if Advisor receives written consent from an authorized agent of the Company prior to performing such Services, and (ii) for each month that Advisor provides Services under this Agreement from August 2024 through December 2024, a total of $15,000 (which constitutes the full advisory fee for the first fifteen (15) hours of Service performed by Advisor during such month) plus $1,000 for each hour of Services performed during such month in excess of fifteen (15) hours if Advisor receives written consent from an authorized agent of the Company prior to performing such Services.
B.During the Advisory Period, each outstanding equity award previously granted to Advisor by the Company (each, an “Equity Award”) shall continue to vest in accordance with the terms and conditions of the equity plan under which such Equity Award was granted and the award agreement between the Company and Employee evidencing such Equity Award. In addition, every three months during the period that Advisor provides Services under this Agreement, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) will review Advisor’s contributions towards the completion of transformative transactions, and based on such assessment, the Board will consider whether to accelerate the vesting of a portion of Advisor’s outstanding Equity Awards, as determined by the Board in its discretion.
C.If Advisor elects continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA for Advisor and Advisor’s eligible dependents, if applicable, the Company will pay, by remitting payment directly to the COBRA administrator, the premiums necessary to continue group health insurance benefits for Advisor and Advisor’s eligible dependents until the earlier of (i) the date Advisor ceases providing Services under this Agreement or (ii) the date upon which Advisor and/or Advisor’s eligible dependents cease(s) to be eligible for coverage under COBRA (such payments, the “COBRA Payments”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA Payments without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company will in lieu thereof provide to Advisor a taxable monthly payment, payable on the last day of a given month (except as provided by the last sentence of this Section 3.C.), in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Advisor would be required to pay to continue the group health coverage for Advisor and/or Advisor’s eligible dependents in effect on the date of the termination of Advisor’s employment with the Company (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA continuation coverage) (each, a “COBRA Replacement Payment”), which COBRA Replacement Payments will be made regardless of whether Advisor and/or Advisor’s eligible dependents elect COBRA continuation coverage and will commence on the month following the Separation Date and will end on the earlier of (x) the date upon which Advisor obtains health insurance through other employment or (y) the date Advisor ceases providing Services under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the COBRA Replacement Payments may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to all applicable tax withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement, if the Company determines in its sole discretion at any time that it cannot provide the COBRA Replacement Payments without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), Advisor will not receive any further COBRA Replacement Payments or COBRA Payments.
D.The Company will reimburse Advisor, in accordance with Company policy, for all reasonable travel expenses incurred by Advisor in performing the Services pursuant to this Agreement, if Advisor receives written consent from an authorized agent of the Company prior to incurring such expenses and submits receipts for such expenses to the Company in accordance with Company policy.
4.Invoices and Payments.
Every two weeks, Advisor shall submit to the Company a written invoice for Services and expenses within thirty (30) days after such Services are performed or such expenses are incurred, and such statement shall be subject to the approval of the contact person listed above or other designated agent of the Company. The Company will remit payment for properly submitted and approved invoices within thirty (30) days following invoice submission. In order to help prevent adverse tax consequences to Advisor under Section 409A (as defined below), in no event will any payment under Section 3.A. of this Exhibit be made later than the later of (1) March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such payment was earned, or (2) the 15th day of the third (3rd) month following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which such payment was earned.
In addition, any reimbursement under Section 3.D. of this Exhibit shall be subject to Advisor continuing to provide Services to the Company pursuant to this Agreement through the date that the expense to be reimbursed is incurred, and in no event shall any such reimbursement be made later than the later of (i) March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such expense was approved by the Company; or (ii) the 15th day of the third (3rd) month following the end of the Company’s tax year in which such expense was approved by the Company.



In addition, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A with respect to any reimbursements under Section 3.D. of this Exhibit that constitute “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, the following provisions will apply: (i) the amount eligible for reimbursement in one calendar year may not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year; (ii) the right to the applicable reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit or payment; (iii) to the extent there is any reimbursement of an expense, subject to any shorter time periods provided in this Agreement or in the applicable reimbursement arrangement, any such reimbursement of an expense must be made on or before the last day of Advisor’s taxable year following the taxable year of Advisor in which the expense was incurred; and (iv) except as specifically provided herein or in the applicable reimbursement arrangement, reimbursements will be made for expenses incurred only during Advisor’s lifetime.
All payments and benefits provided for under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance thereunder (together, “Section 409A”), so that none of the payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be exempt or so comply. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. In no event will the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) have any liability, responsibility or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Advisor for any taxes imposed, or other costs incurred, as a result of Section 409A.
This Exhibit 1 is accepted and agreed upon as of February 6, 2024.

TRANSITION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE
This Transition Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) is made by and between Shafique Virani (“Employee”) and Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) (collectively referred to as the “Parties” or individually referred to as a “Party”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Employee was employed by the Company;

WHEREAS, Employee signed a confirmatory employment letter with the Company dated March 21, 2021 (the “Employment Letter”);

WHEREAS, Employee signed a participation agreement (the “Participation Agreement”), pursuant to which Employee was a participant in the Company’s Executive Change in Control and Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”);

WHEREAS, the Company granted Employee the options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (each, an “Option”) and/or awards of restricted stock units (each, an “RSU Award”) listed in Exhibit A (such Options and/or RSU Awards, the “Equity Awards”), each subject to the terms and conditions of the Key Personnel Incentive Plan, the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan or the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plans”) and the applicable award agreement between the Company and Employee applicable to each Option (each, an “Equity Award Agreement”) (the Plans together with the Equity Award Agreements, the “Stock Agreements”);

WHEREAS, Employee separated from employment with the Company effective February 6, 2024 (the “Separation Date”); and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, the Company and Employee hereby agree as follows:
COVENANTS

1.Consideration. In consideration of and contingent on Employee’s execution of this Agreement, this Agreement going into effect, and Employee’s fulfillment of all of its terms and conditions, the Company agrees as follows:

a.Advisory Services Opportunity. The Company agrees to enter into an Advisory Agreement with Employee, attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Advisory Agreement”), pursuant to which Employee will provide advisory services to the Company as an independent contractor immediately following the end of Employee’s employment with the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Advisory Agreement (the period that Employee actually provides such services, the “Advisory Period”), and will be eligible for the compensation set forth therein. Nothing in this Agreement or the
4875-9998-4802.5


Advisory Agreement pertaining to Employee’s anticipated role as an advisor shall in any way be construed to constitute Employee as agent, officer, employee, or representative of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Advisory Agreement, the Parties agree that the Advisory Agreement and the related advisory services opportunity shall terminate immediately and without penalty to the Company in the event that Employee (i) does not execute this Agreement within the time period specified herein, or (ii) revokes this Agreement under Sections 6 and 28 below.

b.Supplemental Release. Employee agrees to execute, within twenty-one (21) calendar days after the date the Advisory Period ends, the Supplemental Release attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Supplemental Release”), in exchange for the consideration set forth therein; provided, however, that the Company may modify the Supplemental Release pursuant to or otherwise as may be required by applicable law. Subject to Employee executing the Supplemental Release (along with this Agreement), the Company agrees to provide to Employee the consideration set forth in the Supplemental Release. Employee’s failure to sign the Supplemental Release in the specified time period will constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

c.General. Employee acknowledges that without this Agreement, Employee is otherwise not entitled to the consideration listed above and that without the Supplemental Release, Employee is not entitled to the consideration set forth in the Supplemental Release.

2.Equity Awards. During the Advisory Period, the Equity Awards will continue to vest and otherwise continue in accordance with their terms and conditions. In addition, every three months during the Advisory Period, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) will review Employee’s contributions towards the completion of transformative transactions, and based on such assessment, the Board will consider whether to accelerate the vesting of a portion of Employee’s outstanding Equity Awards, as determined by the Board in its discretion.
3.Benefits. Employee’s Company-sponsored health insurance benefits shall cease on February 29, 2024 (or such earlier date as may be required by applicable plan terms and conditions), subject to Employee’s right to continue Employee’s health insurance under COBRA. Employee’s participation in all benefits and incidents of employment, including, but not limited to, the accrual of bonuses, vacation, and paid time off, ceased as of the Separation Date.
4.Payment of Salary and Receipt of All Benefits and Reimbursements. Employee acknowledges and represents that, other than the consideration set forth in this Agreement, the Company has (as applicable) paid or provided all salary, wages, bonuses, vacation/paid time off, premiums, leaves, housing allowances, relocation costs, interest, severance, outplacement costs, fees, reimbursable expenses, commissions, stock, equity awards, vesting, and any and all other benefits and compensation due to Employee. Employee also affirms that Employee has submitted all expense reports in compliance with Employer’s policies and procedures and been reimbursed for all expenses necessarily incurred by Employee in following Employer’s directions or incurred in performing Employee’s duties during Employee’s employment with Employer. For the avoidance of doubt, Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee is not entitled to receive any payments or benefits under the Severance Plan.
5.Release of Claims. Employee agrees that the foregoing consideration represents settlement in full of all outstanding obligations owed to Employee by the Company, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, and each of their respective current and former officers, directors, employees, agents, investors, attorneys, shareholders, administrators, benefit plans, plan administrators, professional employer organizations or co-employers, insurers, trustees, divisions, predecessor and successor corporations, and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”). Employee, on Employee’s own behalf and on behalf of Employee’s respective heirs, family members, executors, agents, and assigns, hereby and forever releases the Releasees from, and agrees
2


not to sue concerning, or in any manner to institute, prosecute, or pursue, any claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, demand, or cause of action relating to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Employee may possess against any of the Releasees arising from any omissions, acts, facts, or damages that have occurred up until and including the date Employee signs this Agreement, including, without limitation:

6.Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA. Employee acknowledges that Employee is waiving and releasing any rights Employee may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary. Employee agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the date Employee signs this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled. Employee further acknowledges that Employee has been advised by this writing that: (a) Employee should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (b) Employee has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement; (c) Employee has seven (7) days following Employee’s execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement; (d) this Agreement shall not be effective until after the revocation period has expired; and (e) nothing in this Agreement prevents or precludes Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law. In the event Employee signs this Agreement and returns it to the Company in less than the twenty-one (21)-day period identified above, Employee hereby acknowledges that Employee has knowingly and voluntarily chosen to waive the time period allotted for considering this Agreement. Employee acknowledges and understands that revocation must be accomplished by a written notification to the person executing this Agreement on the Company’s behalf that is received prior to the Effective Date. The Parties agree that changes, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the 21-day period.
7.Unknown Claims. Employee acknowledges that Employee has been advised to consult with legal counsel and that Employee is familiar with the principle that a general release does not extend to claims that the releaser does not know or suspect to exist in Employee’s favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by Employee, must have materially affected Employee’s settlement with the Releasees. Employee, being aware of said principle, agrees to expressly waive any rights Employee may have to that effect, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect.
8.No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that Employee has no lawsuits, claims, or actions pending in Employee’s name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any of the other Releasees. Employee also represents that Employee does not intend to bring any claims on Employee’s own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any of the other Releasees.
9.No Right to Employment. Employee understands and agrees that, as a condition of this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to any employment with the Company, and Employee hereby waives any right, or alleged right, of employment or re-employment with the Company.
10.Confidentiality. Subject to the “Protected Activity Not Prohibited” section below (and as applicable, the “Protected Activity Not Prohibted” section in the Advisory Agreement), Employee agrees to maintain in complete confidence the existence of this Agreement and the Supplemental Release, the contents and terms of this Agreement and the Supplemental Release, and the consideration for this Agreement and the Supplemental Release (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Separation Information”), and Employee agrees that Employee will not publicize, directly or indirectly, any Separation Information. If, however, Employee becomes an advisor to the Company pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, Employee may disclose that he is an advisor to the Company for the time period Employee is a service provider to the Company under such Advisory Agreement. Except as required by law, and subject to the “Protected Activity Not Prohibited” section below, Employee may disclose Separation Information only to Employee’s immediate family members, the Court in any proceedings to enforce the terms of this Agreement or the Supplemental Release, Employee’s counsel, and Employee’s accountant and any professional tax advisor to the extent that they need to know the Separation Information in order to provide advice on tax treatment or to prepare tax returns, and must prevent disclosure of any Separation Information to all other third parties.

11.Trade Secrets and Confidential Information/Company Property. Employee reaffirms and agrees to observe and abide by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, specifically including the provisions therein regarding nondisclosure of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information, and all restrictive covenants.  During the Advisory Period, Employee may continue to use his Company-provided laptop computer (the “Laptop”), although the Company may require the earlier return of the Laptop in its discretion. Employee’s signature below constitutes his certification under penalty of perjury that, other than the Laptop, Employee does not have in his possession, custody, or control, and has returned to the Company, all devices, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, materials, equipment, any other documents, items, or property, or reproductions of any and all aforementioned items (whether in physical or electronic form) provided to him by the Company (with the exception of personnel documents specifically relating to Employee), developed or obtained by Employee in connection with his relationship with the Company or otherwise belonging to the Company, including, but not limited to, all passwords to any software or other programs or data that Employee used in performing services for the Company.
12.No Cooperation. Subject to the “Protected Activity Not Prohibited” section below, Employee agrees that Employee will not knowingly encourage, counsel, or assist any attorneys or their clients in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the Releasees, unless under a subpoena or other court order to do so or upon written request from an administrative agency or the legislature or as related directly to the ADEA waiver in this Agreement or the Supplemental Release. Employee agrees both to immediately notify the Company upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order or written request from an administrative agency or the legislature, and to furnish, within three (3) business days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or other court order or written request from an administrative agency or the legislature. Subject to the “Protected Activity Not Prohibited” section below, if approached by anyone for counsel or assistance in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints against any of the Releasees, Employee shall state no more than that Employee cannot provide counsel or assistance.
13.Nondisparagement. Subject to the “Protected Activity Not Prohibited” section below, Employee agrees to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel, or slander of any of the Releasees, and agrees to refrain from any tortious interference with the contracts and relationships of any of the Releasees. Employee shall direct any inquiries by potential future employers to the Company’s human resources department.
14.Protected Activity Not Prohibited. Employee understands that nothing in this Agreement or the Supplemental Release shall in any way limit or prohibit Employee from engaging in any “Protected Activity,” which means filing a charge, complaint, or report with, or otherwise communicating, cooperating, or participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by, any federal, state or local government agency or commission, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the National Labor Relations Board (“Government Agencies”). Additionally, nothing in this Agreement or the Supplemental Release constitutes a waiver of any rights Employee may have under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”). For purposes of clarity, nothing in this Agreement or the Supplemental Release shall be interpreted to impair or limit Employee’s participation in any legally protected activities, such as (i) forming, joining, or supporting labor unions, (ii) bargaining collectively through representatives of employees’ choosing, (iii) discussing wages, benefits, or terms and conditions of employment, and (iv) discussing, or raising complaints about, working conditions for the purpose of mutual aid or protection of Employee or the Company’s other current or former employees, to the extent such activities are protected by Section 7 of the NLRA. When engaging in any of the protected conduct described in this section, Employee agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Company confidential information; provided, however, that such
5


disclosures may be made to Government Agencies in connection with Protected Activity. For the sake of clarity, Company confidential information does not include information regarding working conditions, wages, benefits, or other terms and conditions of employment. Additionally, Employee understands that the protected conduct described herein does not include the disclosure of any Company attorney-client privileged communications or privileged attorney work product. Employee understands that nothing in the Confidentiality Agreement shall limit or prohibit Employee from engaging in any protected conduct set forth in this section. Finally, pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Employee is notified that an individual will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (a) is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official (directly or indirectly) or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (b) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if (and only if) such filing is made under seal. In addition, an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the individual’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.
15.Breach. In addition to the rights provided in the “Attorneys’ Fees” section below, Employee acknowledges and agrees that any material breach of this Agreement, unless such breach constitutes a legal action by Employee challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the waiver in this Agreement or the Supplemental Release under the ADEA, or of any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement or the Advisory Agreement shall entitle the Company immediately to recover and/or cease providing the consideration provided to Employee under this Agreement and the Supplemental Release and to obtain damages, except as provided by law.
16.No Admission of Liability. Employee understands and acknowledges that with respect to all claims released in this Agreement and the Supplemental Release, this Agreement and the Supplemental Release constitute a compromise and settlement of any and all actual or potential disputed claims by Employee. No action taken by the Company hereto, either previously or in connection with this Agreement and the Supplemental Release, shall be deemed or construed to be (a) an admission of the truth or falsity of any actual or potential claims or (b) an acknowledgment or admission by the Company of any fault or liability whatsoever to Employee or to any third party.
17.Costs. The Parties shall each bear their own costs, attorneys’ fees, and other fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Agreement.
18.ARBITRATION. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUPPLEMENTAL RELEASE, THEIR INTERPRETATION, EMPLOYEE’S EMPLOYMENT WITH THE COMPANY OR THE TERMS THEREOF, OR ANY OF THE MATTERS HEREIN RELEASED, SHALL BE SUBJECT TO BINDING ARBITRATION UNDER THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (THE “FAA”) AND THAT THE FAA SHALL GOVERN AND APPLY TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WITH FULL FORCE AND EFFECT; HOWEVER, WITHOUT LIMITING ANY PROVISIONS OF THE FAA, A MOTION OR PETITION OR ACTION TO COMPEL ARBITRATION MAY ALSO BE BROUGHT IN STATE COURT UNDER THE PROCEDURAL PROVISIONS OF SUCH STATE’S LAWS RELATING TO MOTIONS OR PETITIONS OR ACTIONS TO COMPEL ARBITRATION. EMPLOYEE AGREES THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EMPLOYEE MAY BRING ANY SUCH ARBITRATION PROCEEDING ONLY IN EMPLOYEE’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. ANY ARBITRATION WILL OCCUR IN FLORIDA BEFORE JAMS, PURSUANT TO ITS EMPLOYMENT ARBITRATION RULES & PROCEDURES (“JAMS RULES”), EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO DECIDE ANY MOTIONS BROUGHT BY ANY
6


PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION, INCLUDING MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND/OR ADJUDICATION, AND MOTIONS TO DISMISS AND DEMURRERS, APPLYING THE STANDARDS SET FORTH UNDER FLORIDA’S RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL ISSUE A WRITTEN DECISION ON THE MERITS. THE PARTIES ALSO AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO AWARD ANY REMEDIES AVAILABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, AND THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS TO THE PREVAILING PARTY, WHERE PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  THE ARBITRATOR MAY GRANT INJUNCTIONS AND OTHER RELIEF IN SUCH DISPUTES. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL APPLY SUBSTANTIVE FLORIDA LAW TO ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS OF ANY JURISDICTION. THE DECISION OF THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE FINAL, CONCLUSIVE, AND BINDING ON THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE PREVAILING PARTY IN ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO ENFORCE THE ARBITRATION AWARD. EMPLOYEE UNDERSTANDS THAT THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION SHALL EACH PAY AN EQUAL SHARE OF THE COSTS AND EXPENSES OF SUCH ARBITRATION, AND EACH PARTY SHALL SEPARATELY PAY FOR ITS RESPECTIVE COUNSEL FEES AND EXPENSES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL AWARD ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS TO THE PREVAILING PARTY, EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW.  THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THEM RESOLVED IN A COURT OF LAW BY A JUDGE OR JURY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THIS SECTION WILL NOT PREVENT EITHER PARTY FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE RELIEF (OR ANY OTHER PROVISIONAL REMEDY) FROM ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE PARTIES AND THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THEIR DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE AGREEMENTS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE, AND THE SUPPLEMENTAL RELEASE. SHOULD ANY PART OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION CONFLICT WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN.
19.Tax Consequences. The Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the tax consequences of the consideration provided to Employee or made on Employee’s behalf under the terms of this Agreement or the Supplemental Release.

7


good faith to consider either (i) amendments to this Agreement or the Supplemental Release; or (ii) revisions to this Agreement or the Supplemental Release with respect to the payment of any awards, which are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to the actual payment to Employee under Section 409A. In no event will the Releasees reimburse Employee for any taxes that may be imposed on Employee as a result of Section 409A.

25.Entire Agreement.

Description of the Business Description of the Business
Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Recursion, the Company, we or our) was originally formed as a limited liability
company on November 4, 2013 under the name Recursion Pharmaceuticals, LLC. In September 2016, the Company converted to a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Recursion is a clinical stage TechBio company decoding biology to industrialize drug discovery. The Recursion Operating System (OS), a platform built across diverse technologies, enables the Company to map and navigate trillions of biological and chemical relationships within the Recursion Data Universe, one of the world’s largest proprietary biological and chemical datasets. The Company integrates physical and digital components as iterative loops of atoms and bits scaling wet lab biology and chemistry data organized into virtuous cycles with computational tools to rapidly translate in silico hypotheses into validated insights and novel chemistry.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1.1 billion. The Company expects to incur substantial operating losses in future periods and will require additional capital to advance its drug candidates. The Company does not expect to generate significant revenue until the Company successfully completes significant drug development milestones with its subsidiaries or in collaboration with third parties, which the Company expects will take a number of years. In order to commercialize its drug candidates, the Company or its partners need to complete clinical development and comply with comprehensive regulatory requirements. The Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties similar to those of other companies of the same size within the biotechnology industry, such as the uncertainty of clinical trial outcomes, uncertainty of additional funding and a history of operating losses.

The Company has funded its operations to date primarily through the issuance of convertible preferred stock and the issuance of Class A common stock (see Note 8, “Common Stock” for additional details). Additionally, the Company has received payments from its strategic partnerships (see Note 9, “Collaborative Development Contracts” for additional details). Recursion will likely be required to raise additional capital. As of March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any unconditional outstanding commitments for additional funding. If the Company is unable to access additional funds when needed, it may not be able to continue the development of its products or the Company could be required to delay, scale back or abandon some or all of its development programs and other operations. The Company’s ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if not achieved on a timely basis, could materially harm its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Recursion believes that the Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating expenses and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.

Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2023.

It is management’s opinion that these condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements. Revenue and net loss for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2024, the SEC issued rule 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. The new rule requires Recursion to provide certain disclosures in the footnotes to the
financial statements of climate-related information. These disclosures include the impact of severe weather and other natural conditions on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations, to the extent they are material. Recursion will also need to disclose a rollforward of the beginning and ending balances of its carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates (RECs), if they are a material component of meeting the Company’s climate-related targets and goals. Additionally, the Company will need to disclose whether and, if so, how severe weather events and other natural conditions and disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans materially affected estimates and assumptions in the financial statements.

The standard’s effective dates, if adopted, will be phased in depending on the disclosure requirement starting the annual period ending December 31, 2025. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of the new climate-related disclosure requirements pending judicial review. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this rule will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-9, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new standard updates disclosure requirements for Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 primarily by requiring additional information in the income tax rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. This standard will be effective for Recursion starting the annual period ending December 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard will not impact Recursion’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-7, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The standard requires new disclosures related to ASC 280 including: disclosing significant segment expenses by category; requiring all the ASC 280 disclosures for Companies with a single reportable segment and; requiring an increased frequency of the ASC 280 disclosures. Recursion must apply the amendments retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented. This standard will be effective for Recursion starting the annual period ending December 31, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not impact Recursion’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

Tempus agreement

In November 2023, Recursion entered into a five-year agreement with Tempus Labs, Inc. (Tempus) to purchase access to their records of patient-centric multimodal oncology data and use rights for therapeutic development purposes. This data will be used to improve the training of Recursion’s artificial intelligence and machine learning models and is expected to accelerate Recursion’s drug discovery process. Recursion is making annual payments, ranging between $22.0 million and $42.0 million, up to $160.0 million in aggregate, to Tempus in cash or equity at the Company’s option. The equity value is determined by using the seven-trading day period dollar volume-weighted average price (VWAP) for Recursion Class A common stock ending on the day immediately preceding the date that is five business days prior to the payment date.

Recursion is expensing the record purchases as “Research and Development” expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the records are purchased. To the extent that the Recursion payments to Tempus are greater than or less than the records purchased amount, Recursion records the applicable amount to “Other Current Assets” or “Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, Recursion had recorded $16.0 million within “Other Current Assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet related to the Tempus agreement.

Acquisitions Acquisitions
Valence Discovery Inc.

On May 16, 2023, Recursion acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Valence Discovery Inc. (Valence), a privately-held machine learning (ML) / artificial intelligence (AI) digital chemistry company. The integration of Valence’s AI-based chemistry engine into Recursion’s operating system will allow Recursion to expand its technology-enabled drug discovery process. This will accelerate Recursion’s digital chemistry capabilities and its drug discovery process.

The acquisition of Valence was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The aggregate upfront consideration for the acquisition of Valence consisted of 2.2 million shares of Recursion Class A common stock, 4.4 million shares of a subsidiary of Recursion, exchangeable for shares of Recursion’s Class A common stock, 792 thousand shares issuable upon exercise of stock options held by Valence equity award holders and deferred liabilities for additional consideration. An insignificant number of the aforementioned shares of consideration had not yet been issued as of March 31, 2024.The final number of shares to be issued has not yet been finalized and so are subject to change.

The intangible asset related to Valence’s ML and AI digital chemistry platform. The estimated fair value of the intangible asset was determined using a cost approach. This valuation technique provides the fair value of an asset based on estimates of the total costs to develop the technology. Significant inputs used to determine the total cost includes the length of time required and service hours performed by Company employees. The technology intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its four-year useful life.

Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized. The goodwill recognized represents the assembled workforce and expected synergies, including the ability to: (i) leverage Valence’s digital chemistry platform across Recursion’s business; (ii) leverage Valence’s ML and AI capabilities; (iii) integrate Recursion’s data and operating system into Valence’s platform; and (iv) accelerate Recursion’s pipeline. Goodwill was also impacted by the establishment of a deferred tax liability for the acquired identifiable intangible assets which have no tax basis. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

Recursion’s condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included no net revenue and a $2.9 million operating loss associated with Valence’s operations. As the acquisition occurred in May 2023, the Company is still finalizing the allocation of the purchase price to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price included in the current period balance sheet is based on the best estimate of management and is preliminary and subject to change. The primary area subject to change relates to the valuation of other receivables. To assist management in the allocation, the Company engaged external specialists. The Company will finalize the amounts recognized as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. The Company expects to finalize these amounts as soon as possible but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Cyclica Inc.

On May 25, 2023, Recursion acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in Cyclica Inc. (Cyclica), a privately-held Company that has built a digital chemistry software suite which enables mechanism of action deconvolution and generative chemistry suggestions based on desired targets. Cyclica’s platform is expected to enhance the optimization of Recursion’s compounds for efficacy while minimizing liabilities through generative machine learning approaches.

The acquisition of Cyclica was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The aggregate upfront consideration for the acquisition of Cyclica consisted of 5.8 million shares of Recursion Class A common stock, cash payments, 1.0 million shares issuable upon exercise of stock options held by Cyclica equity award holders and deferred liabilities for additional consideration. Approximately 182 thousand of the aforementioned shares of Class A common stock consideration had not yet been issued as of March 31, 2024.

Goodwill was also impacted by the establishment of a deferred tax liability for the acquired identifiable intangible assets. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

Recursion’s condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included immaterial net revenue and a $3.8 million operating loss associated with Cyclica’s operations. As the acquisition occurred in May 2023, the Company is still finalizing the allocation of the purchase price to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Leases [Abstract]  
Leases Leases
The Company has entered into various long-term real estate leases primarily related to office, research and development and operating activities. The Company’s leases have remaining terms from under 1 to 9 years and some of those leases include options that provide Recursion with the ability to extend the lease term for five years. The options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Recursion entered into lease modifications resulting in a decrease to the right-of-use asset and lease liability of $3.1 million and an increase to the right-of-use asset and lease liability $3.5 million, respectively. The modifications had no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In January 2024, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space in London, England with approximately 6,792 square feet (the “London Lease”). The right of use began January 2024 when the control of the asset was obtained. The London Lease term is 5 years with a five-year renewal option. The London Lease includes provisions for escalating rent payments. Total fixed payments are expected to be approximately $7.9 million, additionally there will be variable expenses including building service charges related to the lease.

In February 2024, the Company entered into a lease agreement for the supercomputer for the exclusive use of physical space in a data center of approximately 1,851 square feet (the “Data Center Lease”). The right of use is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2024 and the Data Center Lease term is 5 years with a five-year renewal option. The lease includes provisions for escalating rent payments. Total fixed lease payments are expected to be approximately $13.0 million with additional variable expenses, including utilities and tax expenses. The Company did not control the space or any of the assets being constructed as of March 31, 2024 and therefore no right of use asset or lease liability was recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2024.

Contract Obligations

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts with clinical research organizations, drug manufacturers and other vendors for preclinical and clinical research studies, research and development supplies and other services and products for operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice and are cancellable contracts.

Indemnification

The Company has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences, while the officer or director is or was serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The Company purchases directors and officers liability insurance coverage that provides for reimbursement to the Company for covered obligations and this is intended to limit the Company’s exposure and enable it to recover a portion of any amounts it pays under its
indemnification obligations. The Company had no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as no amounts were probable.

Employee Agreements

The Company has signed employment agreements with certain key employees pursuant to which, if their employment is terminated following a change of control of the Company, the employees are entitled to receive certain benefits, including accelerated vesting of equity incentives.

Legal Matters

The Company may, from time to time, be involved in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. An unfavorable resolution of any such matter could materially affect the Company’s future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2021, the Company entered into a lease agreement for laboratory and office space (the Industry Lease) with Industry Office SLC, LLC (the landlord). In March 2023, the Company sent a letter to the landlord detailing numerous construction delays and irregularities, deficiencies and deviations from applicable structural drawings and/or non-conforming conditions with applicable building codes. On June 23, 2023, the landlord filed a lawsuit against the Company (Industry Office SLC, LLC v. Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Case No. 230904627) in the Third District Court for Salt Lake County, State of Utah (the Court), alleging anticipatory repudiation and breach of contract. The Plaintiff seeks monetary damages and attorney’s fees. In July 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss. In September 2023, Recursion was granted its motion to dismiss, and the Court provided the landlord until October 23, 2023, to amend and re-file the dismissed complaint. On October 23, 2023, the landlord filed an amended complaint again alleging anticipatory repudiation, breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing (the Amended Complaint) and seeks monetary damages and attorney’s fees. In November 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint. The Court set a hearing on the Company’s motion to dismiss in May 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had no liability recorded for these events as an unfavorable outcome was not probable.

In connection with the Industry Lease, in September 2023, the Company filed claims in the Court against the landlord alleging, among other things, breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation (the Counterclaims). In October 2023, the landlord filed an answer and denied the Company’s allegations asserted in the Counterclaims. The Company and the landlord are currently engaged in discovery. On October 27, 2023, the Company filed a motion for partial judgment on the pleadings, seeking judgment on one of its four counterclaims. The Court set a hearing on the Company’s motion for partial judgment on the pleadings in May 2024. The Company is unable to estimate the possible amount or range of amounts associated with the Counterclaims.

Common stockholders are entitled to receive dividends, as may be declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no dividends had been declared.

At-The-Market Offering

In August 2023, the Company entered into an Open Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (the “Sales Agent”), to provide for the offering, issuance and sale of up to an aggregate amount of $300.0 million of its Class A common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” (ATM) offerings. As of March 31, 2024, an amount of $208.2 million remained available for future sales under the Sales Agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company has sold 921 thousand shares and received net proceeds of $10.9 million under the agreement. Recursion is not required to sell additional shares under the Sales Agreement. The Company will pay the Sales Agent a commission of up to 3% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from all sales of Class A common stock. The Sales Agreement continues until the earlier of selling all shares available under the Sales Agreement or terminated by written notice from either of the parties. The ATM Offering is being made under a prospectus supplement dated August 8, 2023, and related prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to our automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR (Registration No. 333-264845).

NVIDIA Private Placement

In July 2023, Recursion entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement for a private placement with NVIDIA Corporation (2023 Private Placement), pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 7.7 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $6.49 per share for net proceeds of approximately $49.9 million.

Valence Acquisition Exchangeable Shares

In May 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Valence, the Company entered into an agreement to issue up to 5.9 million shares of Class A common stock (the “Exchange Shares”), that may be issued upon exchange, retraction or redemption of exchangeable shares of a subsidiary of Recursion. Each exchangeable share of the subsidiary of Recursion entitles the holder to exchange those shares on a one-for-one basis for Recursion’s Class A common stock. The shares are entitled to receive dividends economically equivalent to dividends declared by Recursion, are non-voting and are subject to customary adjustments for stock splits or other reorganizations. In addition, the Company may require all outstanding exchangeable shares to be exchanged into an equal number of Class A common stock upon the occurrence of certain events and at any time following the seventh anniversary of the closing of the Valence acquisition. The exchangeable shares are substantially the economic equivalent of the Class A shares and classified as common stock within the Company’s stockholders’ equity. The Company’s calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding includes the exchangeable shares. As of March 31, 2024, 4.2 million Exchangeable shares have been redeemed for Class A shares.

Registration Rights Agreements

Tempus agreement
In November 2023, in connection with the Tempus Agreement, the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement (or a prospectus supplement to an effective registration statement on Form S-3ASR that will become automatically effective upon filing with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e)) with the SEC, for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued or issuable under the Tempus Agreement. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in December 2023 to register shares issued to Tempus for the initial license fee under the Tempus Agreement for resale.

After registration of any shares issued to Tempus under the Tempus Agreement, the Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration statement effective until such date that all shares issued to Tempus covered by such registration statement have been sold or are able to be publicly sold by relying on Rule 144 of the Securities Act without registration.

NVIDIA Private Placement
In July 2023, in connection with the 2023 Private Placement with NVIDIA, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued in such transaction. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in August 2023 to register the resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued to NVIDIA. The Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement continuously effective until such date that all registrable securities under the agreement have been sold. In the event the holders cannot sell their shares due to certain circumstances causing the registration statement to be ineffective, the Company must pay each holder of shares outstanding on the date and each month thereafter 1% of the aggregate purchase price with the maximum payable amount of 5% of the aggregate purchase price. As of March 31, 2024, there was no accrued liability related to this agreement, as it was not probable that a payment would be required.

Acquisitions
In May 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Valence, the Company entered into a Registration Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock and Exchange Shares issued or issuable in such transaction. A registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-272281) was filed to register
the shares for resale by the holders. The registration statement must remain effective for a period of not less than three years.

In May 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Cyclica, the Company entered into a Registration Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued in such transaction. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in June 2023 to register the shares for resale by the holders. The registration statement must be continuously effective until the earlier of the date that all shares have been sold thereunder or are able to be publicly sold by relying on Rule 144 of the Securities Act without registration.

2022 Private Placement
In October 2022, in connection with the 2022 Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement providing for the registration for resale of the shares of Class A common stock issued in such transaction. A prospectus supplement to a registration statement (File No. 333-264845) was subsequently filed in October 2022 to register the resale of the shares of Class A common stock by the Purchasers. The agreement must remain effective until registrable securities covered by the agreement have been publicly sold by the holders or all shares cease to be registrable securities. In the event the holders cannot sell their shares due to certain circumstances causing the agreement to be ineffective, the Company must pay each holder of shares outstanding on the date and each month thereafter 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the holder without limit until the agreement is cured. As of March 31, 2024, there was no accrued liability related to this agreement, as it was not probable that a payment would be required.

Class A and B Common Shares Authorization

In April 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B. The rights of the holders of Class A and B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting and conversion. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes per share and is convertible at any time into one share of Class A common stock.

All Class B common stock is held by Christopher Gibson, Ph.D., the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), or his affiliates. As of March 31, 2024, Dr. Gibson and his affiliates held outstanding shares of Class B common stock representing approximately 25% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding shares. This voting power may increase over time as Dr. Gibson vests in and exercises equity awards outstanding. If all the exchangeable equity awards held by Dr. Gibson had been fully vested, exercised and exchanged for shares of Class B common stock as of March 31, 2024, Dr. Gibson and his affiliates would hold approximately 26% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding shares. As a result, Dr. Gibson will be able to significantly influence any action requiring the approval of Recursion stockholders, including the election of the Board of Directors; the adoption of amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws; and the approval of any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or other major corporate transaction.

Collaborative Development Contracts Collaborative Development Contracts
Roche and Genentech

Description
In December 2021, Recursion entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Roche and Genentech (collectively referred to as Roche). Recursion is constructing, using the Company’s imaging technology and proprietary machine-learning algorithms, unique maps of the inferred relationships amongst perturbation phenotypes in a given cellular context with the goal to discover and develop therapeutic small molecule programs in a gastrointestinal cancer indication and in key areas of neuroscience. Roche and Recursion will collaborate to select certain novel inferences with respect to small molecules or targets generated from the Phenomaps for further validation and optimization as collaboration programs. Roche and Recursion may also combine sequencing datasets from Roche with Recursion’s Phenomaps and collaborate to generate new algorithms to produce multi-modal maps from which additional collaboration programs may be initiated. For every collaboration program that successfully identifies potential therapeutic small molecules or validates a target, Roche will have an option to obtain an exclusive license to develop and commercialize such potential therapeutic small molecules or to exploit such target in the applicable exclusive field.
Pricing
In January 2022, Recursion received a $150.0 million non-refundable upfront payment from the Company’s collaboration with Roche. Recursion is eligible for additional milestone payments based on performance progress of the collaboration. Each of the Phenomaps requested by Roche and created by Recursion may be subject to either an initiation fee, acceptance fee or both. Such fees could exceed $250.0 million for 16 accepted Phenomaps. In addition, for a period of time after Roche’s acceptance of certain Phenomaps, Roche will have the option to obtain, subject to payment of an exercise fee, rights to use outside the collaboration the raw images generated in the course of creating those Phenomaps. If Roche exercises its external use option for all 12 eligible Phenomaps, Roche’s associated exercise fee payments to Recursion could exceed $250.0 million. Under the collaboration, Roche may initiate up to 40 programs, each of which, if successfully developed and commercialized, could yield more than $300.0 million in development, commercialization and net revenue milestones for Recursion, as well as tiered royalties on net revenue.

Accounting
This agreement represents a transaction with a customer and therefore is accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. Recursion has determined that it has three performance obligations, one related to gastrointestinal cancer and two in neuroscience. These performance obligations are for performing research and development services for Roche to identify targets and medicines. The performance obligations also include potential licenses related to the intellectual property. The Company concluded that licenses within the contract are not distinct from the research and development services as they are interrelated due to the fact that the research and development services significantly impact the potential licenses. Any additional services are considered customer options and will be considered as separate contracts for accounting purposes.

The Company has determined the transaction price to be $150.0 million, comprised of the upfront payment. Recursion will fully constrain the amounts of variable consideration to be received from potential milestones considering the stage of development and the risks associated with the remaining development required to achieve each milestone. Recursion will re-evaluate the transaction price each reporting period.

The transaction price was allocated to the performance obligations based on the estimated relative stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation as determined using an expected cost plus margin approach. The Company recognizes revenue over time based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs to perform the research and development services. Recursion determined that this method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of control to the customer. This method of recognizing revenue requires the Company to make estimates of total costs to provide the services required under the performance obligations. Significant inputs used to determine the total costs included the length of time required, service hours performed by Company employees and materials costs. A significant change in these estimates could have a material effect on the timing and amount of revenue recognized in future periods. Recursion has estimated the completion of the performance obligations by 2026.

Additional Revenue Disclosures

Of the revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, primarily all of it was included in the unearned revenue balance as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Revenue recognized was from upfront payments received at the inception of the related contracts, which decreased the initial unearned revenue recognized. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $6.5 million of costs incurred to fulfill a contract on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within “Other Current Assets.”
Unearned revenue was classified as short-term and long-term on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the Company’s estimate of revenue that will be recognized during the next twelve months.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company did not record any U.S. income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company has historically incurred operating losses and maintains a full valuation allowance against its U.S. net deferred tax assets. Foreign taxes were insignificant during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Net operating losses (NOLs) and tax credit carry-forwards are subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and may become subject to annual limitation due to ownership changes that occur under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended and similar state provisions. These ownership changes may limit the amount of carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. In general, an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, results from transactions increasing the ownership of certain shareholders or public groups in the stock of a corporation by more than 50% over a three-year period. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was not limited on its NOLs and tax credit carry-forwards. The Company will continue to monitor future ownership changes for potential Section 382 limitations.
The Company files income tax returns in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Utah, California and Massachusetts. The Company is not currently under examination in any of these jurisdictions. The Company is subject to income tax examinations on all federal returns since the 2017 tax return.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Loss Per Share Net Loss Per Share
For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Recursion calculated net loss per share of Class A, Class B and Exchangeable common stock using the two-class method. Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares and the effect of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options and other contingently issuable shares. For periods presented in which the Company reports a net loss, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and as such are excluded from the calculation. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported a net loss and therefore basic and diluted loss per share were the same.

The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights, of the holders of the Company’s Class A, Class B and the Exchangeable common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. As a result, the undistributed earnings for each period are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A, Class B and the Exchangeable common stock as if the earnings for the period had been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis and the resulting amount per share for Class A, Class B and the Exchangeable common stock was the same during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Class A, Class B and Exchangeable common stock:

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:

Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the company has the ability to access;
Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market; and
Level 3 — Valuations using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and include the use of judgment by the company's management about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company is required to maintain a cash balance in a collateralized account to secure the Company’s credit cards. Additionally, the Company holds restricted cash related to an outstanding letter of credit issued by J.P. Morgan, which was obtained to secure certain Company obligations relating to tenant improvements. Recursion also holds restricted cash related to a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation grant.

The following tables summarize the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2023.

It is management’s opinion that these condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements. Revenue and net loss for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2024, the SEC issued rule 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. The new rule requires Recursion to provide certain disclosures in the footnotes to the
financial statements of climate-related information. These disclosures include the impact of severe weather and other natural conditions on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations, to the extent they are material. Recursion will also need to disclose a rollforward of the beginning and ending balances of its carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates (RECs), if they are a material component of meeting the Company’s climate-related targets and goals. Additionally, the Company will need to disclose whether and, if so, how severe weather events and other natural conditions and disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans materially affected estimates and assumptions in the financial statements.

The standard’s effective dates, if adopted, will be phased in depending on the disclosure requirement starting the annual period ending December 31, 2025. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of the new climate-related disclosure requirements pending judicial review. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this rule will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-9, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new standard updates disclosure requirements for Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 primarily by requiring additional information in the income tax rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. This standard will be effective for Recursion starting the annual period ending December 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard will not impact Recursion’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-7, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The standard requires new disclosures related to ASC 280 including: disclosing significant segment expenses by category; requiring all the ASC 280 disclosures for Companies with a single reportable segment and; requiring an increased frequency of the ASC 280 disclosures. Recursion must apply the amendments retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented. This standard will be effective for Recursion starting the annual period ending December 31, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not impact Recursion’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.
