EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) for the period ended September 30, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2024 (the “Original Filing”).
Subsequent to the filing of its Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company became aware of a misapplication of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") as it relates to the Company's exclusion of its Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock and Series B non-voting convertible preferred stock in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share and a finding of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting solely related to such matter. This Amendment is being filed for the sole purpose of amending certain disclosures from the Original Filing related to the aforementioned misapplication of U.S. GAAP and related finding of material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.
Specifically, this Amendment amends: (i) Part I, Item 1. “Financial Information (unaudited)” to update the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations and related footnote disclosures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, (ii) Part I, Item 4. "Controls and Procedures" to address management's re-evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024 and to reflect the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and (iii) Part II, Item 6. "Exhibits" to include, in accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), updated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32.1. In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, this Amendment amends and restates in their entirety each item identified in the paragraph above.
Other than as described above, this Amendment does not amend, update or change any other items or disclosures contained in the Original Filing, and accordingly, all other information contained in this Amendment is as of the date of the original filing and does not reflect subsequent information or events beyond the original filing date, November 7, 2024. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with other filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including any amendments to those filings. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Filing.

Spyre Therapeutics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. The Company and Basis of Presentation
Spyre Therapeutics, Inc., formerly Aeglea BioTherapeutics, Inc. (“Spyre” or the “Company”), is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing next generation therapeutics for patients living with inflammatory bowel disease. The Company was formed as a Limited Liability Company ("LLC") in Delaware on December 16, 2013 under the name Aeglea BioTherapeutics Holdings, LLC and was converted from a Delaware LLC to a Delaware corporation on March 10, 2015. On November 27, 2023, the Company completed its corporate rebranding, changing the name of the Company to Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. The Company operates in one segment and has its principal offices in Waltham, Massachusetts.
On September 8, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-25 (the “Reverse Split”). Except as indicated otherwise, all share numbers related to the Company's Common Stock disclosed in these financial statements have been adjusted on a post-Reverse Split basis.
On April 12, 2023, based on the review of the inconclusive interim results from the Company's Phase 1/2 clinical trial of pegtarviliase for the treatment of Classical Homocystinuria and other business considerations, the Company announced that it had initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value and engaged an independent exclusive financial advisor to support this process. As a result, in April 2023, the Company implemented a restructuring plan resulting in an approximate 83% reduction of the Company’s existing headcount.
On June 22, 2023, the Company acquired, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Acquisition Agreement"), the assets of Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. (“Pre-Merger Spyre”), a privately held biotechnology company advancing a pipeline of antibody therapeutics with the potential to transform the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease through a research and development option agreement ("Paragon Agreement") with Paragon Therapeutics, Inc. ("Paragon"). The asset acquisition was accomplished through a two-step reverse triangular merger whereby a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into Pre-Merger Spyre, which existed at the time the Acquisition Agreement was entered into, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. Immediately following this merger, Pre-Merger Spyre merged with and into a second wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement and Pre-Merger Spyre ceased to exist. Subsequently, Aeglea BioTherapeutics, Inc. was renamed Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. and is a different entity than Pre-Merger Spyre, which ceased to exist upon merging with Merger Sub. The transaction was structured as a stock-for-stock transaction pursuant to which all of Pre-Merger Spyre's outstanding equity interests were exchanged based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.5494488 to 1 for consideration from the Company of 517,809 shares of common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), and 364,887 shares of Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share ("Series A Preferred Stock") (convertible on a 40 to 1 basis), in addition to the assumption of outstanding and unexercised stock options to purchase 2,734 shares of Common Stock from the Amended and Restated Spyre 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Asset Acquisition"). The Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock related to the Asset Acquisition were issued to the Pre-Merger Spyre stockholders on July 7, 2023.
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, on June 26, 2023, the Company completed a private placement of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “June 2023 PIPE”) to a group of investors (the “June 2023 Investors”). The Company sold an aggregate of 721,452 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $210.0 million before deducting approximately $12.7 million in placement agent and other offering expenses (together with the Asset Acquisition, the “Transactions”).
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, a non-transferable contingent value right ("CVR") was distributed to stockholders of record of the Company as of the close of business on July 3, 2023 (the "Legacy Stockholders"), but was not distributed to the holders of shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock issued to the former stockholders of Pre-Merger Spyre or the June 2023 Investors in the Transactions. Holders of the CVRs will be entitled to receive cash payments from proceeds received by the Company for a three-year
8


period related to the disposition or monetization of its legacy assets for a period of one-year following the closing of the Asset Acquisition.
On November 21, 2023, the Company's stockholders approved the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock. A total of 649,302 shares of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted to 25,972,080 shares of Common Stock; 437,037 shares of Series A Preferred Stock did not automatically convert and remained outstanding after the conversion.
On December 11, 2023, the Company completed a private placement of shares of Common Stock and Series B non-voting convertible preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share ("Series B Preferred Stock") (convertible on a 40 to 1 basis) (the “December 2023 PIPE”) to a group of investors. The Company sold an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 150,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $180.0 million before deducting approximately $10.9 million of placement agent and other offering expenses.
On March 20, 2024, the Company completed a private placement of Series B Preferred Stock (convertible on a 40 to 1 basis) (the “March 2024 PIPE”) to a group of investors. The Company sold 121,625 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $180.0 million before deducting approximately $11.2 million of placement agent and other offering costs.
On April 23, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Fairmount Healthcare Fund II L.P. (the “Stockholder”), pursuant to which the Stockholder agreed to exchange an aggregate of 90,992 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 3,639,680 shares of Common Stock (the “April 2024 Exchange”). The Common Stock issued in connection with the April 2024 Exchange was issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on the exemption from registration contained in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The April 2024 Exchange closed on April 25, 2024, with 346,045 shares of Series A Preferred Stock remaining outstanding following the April 2024 Exchange.
On May 14, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock to Common Stock. A total of 254,958 shares of Series B Preferred Stock automatically converted to 10,198,320 shares of Common Stock; 16,667 shares of Series B Preferred Stock did not automatically convert and remained outstanding as of September 30, 2024.
On September 6, 2024, the Company filed a new shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that was declared effective by the SEC for the potential offering, issuance and sale by the Company of up to $500.0 million of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and/or units consisting of all or some of these securities. Concurrent with the filing of the shelf-registration statement, the Company entered into a sales agreement with TD Securities (USA) LLC (“TD Cowen”), as its sales agent, pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock for an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million under an at-the-market (“ATM’) offering program included in the shelf registration. In September 2024, the Company sold 426,287 shares of common stock under the ATM at a price per share of $28.15, resulting in net proceeds of $11.8 million.
Liquidity
The Company is a clinical stage biotechnology company with a limited operating history, and due to its significant research and development expenditures, the Company has generated operating losses since its inception and has not generated any revenue from the commercial sale of any products. There can be no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, and, if achieved, whether profitability can be sustained on a continuing basis.
Since its inception and through September 30, 2024, the Company has funded its operations by raising an aggregate of approximately $1.1 billion of gross proceeds from the sale and issuance of convertible preferred stock and common stock, pre-funded warrants, the collection of grant proceeds, and the licensing of its product rights for commercialization of pegzilarginase in Europe and certain countries in the Middle East. As of September 30, 2024, Spyre had an accumulated deficit of $916.1 million, and cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $414.2 million.
9


Based on current operating plans, the Company has sufficient resources to fund operations for at least one year from the issuance date of these financial statements with existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Spyre will need to secure additional financing in the future to fund additional research and development, and before a commercial drug can be produced, marketed and sold. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing or generate license or product revenue, the lack of liquidity could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or balance sheets.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2024, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, changes in convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or for any other future annual or interim period. The December 31, 2023 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "Annual Report") as filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024 and amended on March 1, 2024 and November 18, 2024.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC instructions for interim financial information, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report. Significant accounting policies and other disclosures normally provided have been omitted since such items are disclosed in the Company's Annual Report. The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements.
Other than policies noted below, there have been no significant changes from the significant accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the Notes titled “1. The Company and Basis of Presentation” and "2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Company's Annual Report.
License Agreements Contingent Milestone Payments
The Company’s license agreements include specific development, regulatory, and clinical milestone payments that are payable upon the resolution of a contingency, such as upon the selection of a development candidate, first dosing of a human patient in clinical trials or receipt of the Food Drug and Administration’s (“FDA”) approval of a Spyre drug. The achievement of these milestone payments involves many factors outside of the Company’s control and therefore the associated likelihood cannot be considered probable until the
10


related contingency is resolved. Based on the preceding, the Company accrues each milestone payment upon the achievement of the applicable milestone event.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.
Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03 to require more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.
3. Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures and reports certain financial instruments as assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy (in thousands):
September 30, 2024

Liabilities:

Total liabilities$ $ $42,700 $42,700 
The Company measures the fair value of money market funds and U.S. government treasury securities on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Level 2 assets include U.S. government agency securities, commercial paper and corporate bonds, and are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are derived from observable market data. The Company evaluates transfers between levels at the end of each reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the periods presented.
Parapyre Option Obligation
Under the Paragon Agreement, the Company is obligated to issue Parapyre Holding LLC ("Parapyre") an annual equity grant of warrants, on the last business day of each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, to purchase 1% of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, on a fully diluted basis, during the term of the Paragon Agreement (the "Parapyre Option Obligation"). The Company determined that the 2023 and 2024 grants are two separate grants, as there would be no obligation for the 2024 grant had the Company exercised or terminated all of the options under the Paragon Agreement prior to December 31, 2023. The service inception period for the grant precedes the grant date, with the full award being vested as of the grant date with no post-grant date service requirement. Accordingly, a liability related to the Parapyre Option Obligation is recorded pursuant to the Paragon Agreement during interim periods. On December 31, 2023, the Company settled its 2023 obligation under the Parapyre Option Obligation by issuing Parapyre 684,407 warrants to purchase the Company's Common Stock, with a $21.52 per share exercise price for each warrant.
The Parapyre Option Obligation is considered a Level 2 liability based on observable market data for substantially the full term of the liability. The Parapyre Option Obligation is measured each period using a Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the option grant. Changes in the fair value of the Parapyre Option Obligation are recorded as stock-based compensation within Research and development expenses for non-employees who provided pre-clinical development services.
CVR Liability
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, a non-transferable CVR was distributed to the Legacy Stockholders, but was not distributed to holders of shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock issued to the June 2023 Investors or former stockholders of Pre-Merger Spyre in connection with the Transactions. Holders of the CVR will be entitled to receive certain cash payments from proceeds received by the Company for a three-year period, if any, related to the disposition or monetization of the Company’s legacy assets for a period of one year following the closing of the Asset Acquisition.
The fair value of the CVR liability was determined using the probability weighted discounted cash flow method to estimate future cash flows associated with the sale of the legacy assets. Analogous to a dividend being declared/approved in one period and paid out in another, the liability was recorded at the date of approval, June 22, 2023, as a Common Stock dividend, returning capital to the Legacy Stockholders. Changes in fair
12


value of the liability will be recognized as a component of Other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss in each reporting period. The liability value is based on significant inputs not observable in the market such as estimated cash flows, estimated probabilities of regulatory success, and discount rates, which represent a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
The significant inputs used to estimate the fair value of the CVR liability were as follows:
 September 30, 2024
Estimated cash flow dates
05/28/25 - 06/22/26
Estimated probability of success
72% - 100%
Estimated reimbursement rate compared to reimbursement target
81% - 100%
Risk-adjusted discount rates
7.76% - 7.82%
The change in fair value between December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2024 was a $19.6 million increase, primarily driven by changes in the likelihood of achievement of certain milestones and the time value of money, partially offset by an increase in risk-adjusted discount rates.
The following table presents changes in the CVR liability for the periods presented (in thousands):
 
CVR Liability
Beginning balance as of December 31, 2023$42,700 
Changes in the fair value of the CVR liability19,630 
Payments(1,430)
Ending Balance as of September 30, 2024$60,900 
Forward Contract Liability
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, the Company entered into a contract for the issuance of 364,887 shares of Series A Preferred Stock as part of the consideration transferred. This forward contract was classified as a liability because the underlying preferred shares were contingently redeemable. The forward contract was carried at fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in fair value between the acquisition date and June 30, 2023 recorded in earnings. The liability was settled with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock on July 7, 2023.
The fair value of the forward contract as of the acquisition date, June 22, 2023, was $106.2 million. The liability was settled with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock on July 7, 2023 for $189.7 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, $25.4 million and $83.5 million, respectively, was recorded as Other (expense) income in the consolidated statements of operations in connection with the change in fair value of the forward contract liability.

The Company evaluated its securities for credit losses and considered the decline in market value to be primarily attributable to current economic and market conditions and not to a credit loss or other factors. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position and does not expect it will be required to sell the securities before recovery of the unamortized cost basis. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, an allowance for credit losses had not been recognized. Given the Company's intent and ability to hold such securities until recovery, and the lack of significant change in credit risk of these investments, the Company does not consider these marketable securities to be impaired as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits. Accounts at each of our two U.S. banking institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per depositor. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash deposits at the Company's U.S. banking institutions exceeded the FDIC limits. Uninsured foreign cash deposits were immaterial for both periods.
There were no realized gains or losses on marketable securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Interest on marketable securities is included in interest income. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was $1.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and is reflected in Prepaid expenses and other current assets.
The following table summarizes the contractual maturities of the Company’s marketable securities at estimated fair value (in thousands):

Due in 1 - 2 years89,034 34,600 
Total marketable securities$342,647 $150,384

The Company may sell investments at any time for use in current operations even if they have not yet reached maturity. As a result, the Company classifies marketable securities, including securities with maturities beyond twelve months as current assets.
5. Accrued and Other Current Liabilities

6. Asset Acquisition
On June 22, 2023, the Company acquired Pre-Merger Spyre pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, by and among the Company, Aspen Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), Sequoia Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), and Pre-Merger Spyre. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, First Merger Sub merged with and into Pre-Merger Spyre, pursuant to which Pre-Merger Spyre was the surviving corporation and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First Merger”). Immediately following the First Merger, Pre-Merger Spyre merged with and into Second Merger Sub, pursuant to which Second Merger Sub became the surviving entity. Pre-Merger Spyre was a pre-clinical stage biotechnology company that was incorporated on April 28, 2023 under the direction of Peter Harwin, a Managing Member of Fairmount, for the purpose of holding rights to certain intellectual property being developed by Paragon. Fairmount is a founder of Paragon.
The Company completed the Asset Acquisition of Pre-Merger Spyre, in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, the Company issued 517,809 shares of Common Stock and 364,887 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to former Pre-Merger Spyre security holders. In addition, outstanding and unexercised stock options to purchase 2,734 shares of common stock were assumed from the Amended and Restated Spyre 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.
At the acquisition date, the Company recorded forward contracts to represent the obligation to issue shares of Common Stock and shares of Series A Preferred Stock, respectively. The forward contract related to the Common Stock was recorded as Additional paid-in capital as the instrument is indexed to the Common Stock. The forward contract related to the Series A Preferred Stock was recorded as a liability, as the underlying stock has a cash redemption feature. On July 7, 2023, both the shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock were issued and the forward contract liability associated with the Series A Preferred Stock was settled accordingly.
The Company concluded that the arrangement met the definition of an asset acquisition rather than a business combination, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identifiable asset, Pre-Merger Spyre's option to exclusively license certain intellectual property rights (the "Option"). The Company determined that the Option was a single asset as the Company's strategy relied on developing the entire portfolio of individual treatments to create combination treatments that simultaneously address different mechanisms of inflammatory bowel disease with a single treatment. The Company also determined that the pipeline candidates within the portfolio were similar in nature and risk profile. In addition, the Company did not obtain any substantive processes, assembled workforce, or employees capable of producing outputs in connection with the Asset Acquisition.
16


The Company determined that the cost to acquire the asset was $113.2 million which was recorded as acquired in-process research and development ("IPR&D"). The fair value of the consideration issued consisted of the 364,887 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (14,595,480 shares of Common Stock on an as-converted basis) and 517,809 shares of Common Stock, valued at $291.08 per share and $7.277 per share, respectively.
The Asset Acquisition costs are shown on the following table (in millions):

7. Licensing Agreements
On July 12, 2023, December 14, 2023, and June 5, 2024, the Company exercised the Option available under the Paragon Agreement with respect to the SPY001, SPY002, and SPY003 research programs, respectively.
On May 14, 2024, the Company and Paragon entered into (i) a license agreement (the “SPY001 License Agreement”), pursuant to which Paragon granted the Company a royalty-bearing, world-wide, exclusive license to develop, manufacture, commercialize or otherwise exploit certain antibodies and products targeting α4ß7 integrin and (ii) a license agreement (the “SPY002 License Agreement”), pursuant to which Paragon granted the Company a royalty-bearing, world-wide, exclusive license to develop, manufacture, commercialize or otherwise exploit certain antibodies and products targeting TL1A, respectively.
On October 11, 2024, the Company and Paragon entered into a license agreement (the "SPY003 License Agreement" and, together with the SPY001 License Agreement and the SPY002 License Agreement, the "License Agreements"), pursuant to which Paragon granted the Company a royalty-bearing, world-wide, exclusive license to develop, manufacture, commercialize or otherwise exploit certain antibodies and products targeting IL-23 in the field of IBD.
Under the terms of each License Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay Paragon up to $22.0 million based on specific development, regulatory and clinical milestones for the first product under each agreement, respectively, that achieves such specified milestones, including a $1.5 million fee for nomination of a development candidate, as applicable, and a further milestone payment of $2.5 million upon the first dosing of a human patient in a Phase 1 trial. In addition, the following summarizes other key terms of each License Agreement:
Paragon will provide the Company with an exclusive license (such license, with respect to the SPY003 License Agreement only, being limited to the field of IBD) to its patents covering the related antibody, the method of use and its method of manufacture.
Paragon will not conduct any new campaigns that generate anti-α4ß7 or anti-TL1A monospecific antibodies in any field or anti-IL-23 monospecific antibodies in the field of IBD, in each case for at least 5 years.
17


The Company will pay Paragon a low single-digit percentage royalty for single antibody products and a mid single-digit percentage royalty for products containing more than one antibody from Paragon.
There is a royalty step-down of 1/3rd if there is no Paragon patent in effect during the royalty term.
The royalty term ends on the later of (i) the last-to-expire licensed patent or Company patent directed to the manufacture, use or sale of a licensed antibody in the country at issue or (ii) 12 years from the date of first sale of a Company product.
Agreement may be terminated on 60 days’ notice by the Company; on material breach without cure; and to the extent permitted by law, on a party’s insolvency or bankruptcy.
With respect to the SPY002 License Agreement only, on a product by product basis, the Company will pay sublicensing fees of up to approximately $20 million upon the achievement of mostly commercial milestones.
The Company recognizes the expense associated with each milestone when the achievement of the milestone is deemed probable. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized expense of nil and $5.5 million related to Paragon license milestone payments recorded within Research and development expenses in the accompanying condensed statement of operations. There was no such expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company made cash milestone payments to Paragon totaling $2.5 million and $5.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, there were no Paragon license milestone payments outstanding and payable to Paragon.
Additionally, the Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.4 million related to sublicensing fees and which was recorded as Research and development expenses in the accompanying condensed statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, $0.3 million in sublicensing fees were outstanding and payable to Paragon.
8. Related Party Transactions
Paragon and Parapyre each beneficially own less than 5% of the Company's capital stock through their respective holdings of the Company's Common Stock. Fairmount Funds Management LLC ("Fairmount") beneficially owns more than 5% of the Company's capital stock on an as-converted basis, has two seats on the Company's board of directors (the "Board") and beneficially owns more than 5% of Paragon, which is a joint venture between Fairmount and FairJourney Biologics. Fairmount appointed Paragon's board of directors and has the contractual right to approve the appointment of any executive officers. Parapyre is an entity formed by Paragon as a vehicle to hold equity in Spyre in order to share profits with certain employees of Paragon.
The following is the summary of expenses related to the Paragon Agreement and License Agreements, which are ultimately settled in cash (in millions) and recorded within Research and development in the consolidated statement of operations for the periods presented:

Pre-Funded Warrants
In February 2019, April 2020 and May 2022, the Company issued pre-funded warrants to purchase the Company’s Common Stock in underwritten public offerings at the offering price of the Common Stock, less the $0.0025 per share exercise price of each warrant.

On June 22, 2023, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Series A Certificate of Designation”) in connection with the Asset Acquisition and the June 2023 PIPE.
20


Pursuant to the Series A Certificate of Designation, holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series A Preferred Stock equal to, on an as-if-converted-to-Common Stock basis, and in the same form as, dividends actually paid on shares of Common Stock. Except as provided in the Series A Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock does not have voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock: (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Preferred Stock, or alter or amend the Series A Certificate of Designation, amend or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or its Bylaws, or file any articles of amendment, certificate of designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of any series of preferred stock, if such action would adversely alter or change the preferences, rights, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the Series A Preferred Stock, regardless of whether any of the foregoing actions will be by means of amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or by merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, conversion or otherwise, (b) issue further shares of Series A Preferred Stock or increase or decrease (other than by conversion) the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock, (c) prior to the stockholder approval of the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock in accordance with Nasdaq Stock Market Rules (the “Series A Conversion Proposal”) or at any time while at least 30% of the originally issued Series A Preferred Stock remains issued and outstanding, consummate (x) any Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Series A Certificate of Designation) or (y) any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or any stock sale to, or other business combination in which our stockholders immediately before such transaction do not hold at least a majority of our capital stock immediately after such transaction or (d) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing. The Series A Preferred Stock does not have a preference upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company.
On June 26, 2023, the Company completed a private placement of 721,452 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in exchange for gross proceeds of approximately $210.0 million, or net proceeds of $197.3 million, after deducting placement agent and other offering costs.

On November 21, 2023, the Company's stockholders approved the Series A Conversion Proposal, among other matters, at a special meeting of stockholders. As a result of the approval of the Series A Conversion Proposal, all conditions that could have required cash redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock were satisfied. Since the Series A Preferred Stock is no longer redeemable, the associated balances of the Series A Preferred Stock were reclassified from mezzanine equity to permanent equity during the fourth quarter of 2023.
Following stockholder approval of the Series A Conversion Proposal, each share of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 40 shares of Common Stock, subject to certain limitations, including that a holder of Series A Preferred Stock is prohibited from converting shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock if, as a result of such conversion, such holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than a specified percentage (established by the holder between 0.0% and 19.9%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. 649,302 shares of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted to 25,972,080 shares of Common Stock; 437,037 shares of Series A Preferred Stock did not automatically convert and remained outstanding following the conversion. This conversion was recorded as a reclassification between Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock based on the historical per-share contributed capital amount of the Series A Preferred Stock.
On April 23, 2024, in connection with the April 2024 Exchange, the Stockholder agreed to exchange an aggregate of 90,992 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 3,639,680 shares of the Company's Common Stock. This exchange was recorded as a reclassification between Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock based on the historical per-share contributed capital amount, inclusive of any forward-contract valuation adjustments, of the Series A Preferred Stock. Following the April 2024 Exchange, 346,045 shares of Series A Preferred Stock remained outstanding.

Series B Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock

Pursuant to the Series B Certificate of Designation, holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series B Preferred Stock equal to, on an as-if-converted-to-Common Stock basis, and in the same form as, dividends actually paid on shares of Common Stock. Except as provided in the Series B Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law, the Series B Preferred Stock does not have voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series B Preferred Stock, or alter or amend the Series B Certificate of Designation, amend or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or its Bylaws, or file any articles of amendment, certificate of designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of any series of preferred stock, if such action would adversely alter or change the preferences, rights, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the Series B Preferred Stock, regardless of whether any of the foregoing actions will be by means of amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or by merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, conversion or otherwise. The Series B Preferred Stock does not have a preference upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company.
On December 11, 2023, as part of the December 2023 PIPE, the Company completed a private placement of 150,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in exchange for gross proceeds of $90.0 million.
On March 18, 2024, in connection with the March 2024 PIPE, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Series B Certificate of Designation to increase the number of authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock from 150,000 to 271,625.
On March 20, 2024, as part of the March 2024 PIPE, the Company completed a private placement of 121,625 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in exchange for gross proceeds of approximately $180.0 million.
On May 14, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved the issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion of all issued and outstanding Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules (the "Series B Conversion Proposal"), among other matters, at its 2024 annual meeting of stockholders. As a result of the approval of the Series B Conversion Proposal, all conditions that could have required cash redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock were satisfied. Since the Series B Preferred Stock is no longer redeemable, the associated balances of the Series B Preferred Stock were reclassified from mezzanine equity to permanent equity during the second quarter of 2024.
Following stockholder approval of the Series B Conversion Proposal, each share of Series B Preferred Stock automatically converted into 40 shares of the Common Stock, subject to certain limitations, including that a holder of Series B Preferred Stock is prohibited from converting shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock if, as a result of such conversion, such holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than a specified percentage (established by the holder between 0.0% and 19.9%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. 254,958 shares of Series B Preferred Stock automatically converted to 10,198,320 shares of Common Stock; 16,667 shares of Series B Preferred Stock did not automatically convert and remain outstanding as of September 30, 2024 due to beneficial ownership limitations. This conversion was recorded as a reclassification between Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock based on the historical per-share contributed capital amount of the Series B Preferred Stock.
S-3 Shelf & ATM
On September 6, 2024, the Company filed a new shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that was declared effective by the SEC for the potential offering, issuance and sale by the Company of up to $500.0 million of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and/or units consisting of all or some of these securities.

10. Stock-Based Compensation
2015 Equity Incentive Plan
In March 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), administered by the board of directors, and provides for the Company to sell or issue share of Common Stock or restricted Common Stock, or to grant incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options for the purchase of Common Stock, to employees, members of the board of directors and consultants of the Company. The Company granted options under the 2015 Plan until April 2016 when it was terminated as to future awards, although it continues to govern the terms of options that remain outstanding under the 2015 Plan.
As of September 30, 2024, a total of 952 shares of Common Stock are subject to options outstanding under the 2015 Plan and will become available under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (“2016 Plan”) to the extent the options are forfeited or lapse unexercised.
2016 Equity Incentive Plan
The 2016 Plan became effective in April 2016 and serves as the successor to the 2015 Plan. Under the 2016 Plan, the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance awards, and stock bonuses. The 2016 Plan, as amended, provides for an automatic increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder on January 1 of each year for the remaining term of the plan equal to (a) 5.0% of the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including such shares issuable pursuant to the exercise or conversion, as applicable, of any outstanding pre-funded warrants and nonvoting convertible preferred stock) on December 31 of the immediately preceding year, or (b) a lesser amount as approved by the board each year (the “Evergreen Provision”). As a result of the Evergreen Provision, on January 1, 2024 and 2023, an additional 3,023,650 and 104,561 shares, respectively, became available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.
As of September 30, 2024, the 2016 Plan had 7,228,113 shares available for future issuance, of which 3,247,677 shares were subject to outstanding option awards.
2018 Equity Inducement Plan
The 2018 Equity Inducement Plan (“2018 Plan”) became effective in February 2018.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company amended the 2018 Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance by 1,000,000. After this amendment and as of September 30, 2024, the 2018 Plan had 6,999,445 shares available for future issuance, of which 5,624,067 shares were subject to outstanding option awards and restricted unit awards.
Service-based awards granted under the 2018 Plan, 2016 Plan, and 2015 Plan generally vest over four years and expire after ten years, although awards have been granted with vesting terms less than four years. Under the 2016 Plan and 2018 Plan, the Company may grant stock-based awards with service conditions (“service-based” awards), performance conditions (“performance-based” awards), and market conditions (“market-based” awards).
Spyre 2023 Equity Incentive Plan
On June 22, 2023, in connection with the Asset Acquisition, the Company assumed the Amended and Restated Spyre 2023 Equity Incentive Plan and its outstanding and unexercised stock options, which were

11. Legacy Strategic License Agreements
On March 21, 2021, the Company entered into an exclusive license and supply agreement with Immedica (the "Immedica Agreement"). On July 27, 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell the global rights to pegzilarginase, an investigational treatment for the rare metabolic disease Arginase 1 Deficiency, to Immedica for $15.0 million in upfront cash proceeds and up to $100.0 million in contingent milestone payments. The sale of pegzilarginase to Immedica superseded and terminated the Immedica Agreement.
The milestone payments are contingent on formal reimbursement decisions by national authorities in key European markets and pegzilarginase approval by the FDA, among other events. In addition to the payment previously made to holders of the Company's CVRs (as defined in Note 1) related to the upfront cash proceeds, any contingent milestone payments under the Immedica Agreement, if paid within the CVR period, will be distributed to holders of the Company's CVRs net of expenses and adjustments pursuant to the contingent value rights agreement we entered into with Equiniti Trust Company LLC (f/k/a American Stock Transfer & Trust Company LLC) as rights agent in connection with the Asset Acquisition.
The Company did not recognize any revenue under the Immedica Agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $0.9 million of development fee revenue in connection with the Immedica Agreement, which was attributable to the PEACE Phase 3 trial and BLA package for pegzilarginase. There was no such revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
For more details on the Immedica Agreement, which was terminated on July 27, 2023, please refer to the Note under Item 1 of Part I, titled "12. Strategic License Agreements" of the Company's Annual Report.
Contract Balances from Customer Contract
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in contract assets and contract liabilities on the Company's balance sheets. The Company recognizes license and development receivables based on billed services, which are derecognized upon reimbursement. When consideration is received, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a contract, a contract liability is recorded. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue after control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria have been met.
25


The Company did not have any contract assets or liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
12. Sale of Pegzilarginase to Immedica
On July 27, 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell the global rights to pegzilarginase, an investigational treatment for the rare metabolic disease Arginase 1 Deficiency, to Immedica for $15.0 million in upfront cash proceeds and up to $100.0 million in contingent milestone payments. The sale of pegzilarginase to Immedica superseded and terminated the previous license agreement between the Company and Immedica. On July 27, 2023, the carrying value of the asset was zero as it was internally developed. Accordingly the Company recognized a $14.6 million gain within operating expenses, which is the full $15.0 million in upfront cash proceeds, net of transaction costs and the derecognition of pegzilarginase related nonfinancial assets and liabilities.
The milestone payments are contingent on formal reimbursement decisions by national authorities in key European markets and pegzilarginase approval by the FDA, among other events. The upfront payment and contingent milestone payments if paid, net of expenses and adjustments, will be distributed to holders of Aeglea’s CVR pursuant to the CVR Agreement resulting from the Asset Acquisition.
13. Net Loss Per Share (as restated)
Restatement
Subsequent to the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024, management identified an error related to the calculation and presentation of loss per share. The Company had previously concluded that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock had preferences over the Company's Common Stock and were therefore excluded from the calculation of basic and dilutive net loss per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company has now determined that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock do not have preferential rights over the Company’s Common Stock and, accordingly, are considered to be a second and third class of common stock for purposes of calculating net loss per share. Consequently, the Company has now separately calculated and presented net loss per share for its Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, loss per share attributable to common stockholders as previously presented was $1.36 and $9.34, respectively, and as restated was $1.06 and $0.86, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, loss per share attributable to common stockholders as previously presented was $3.43 and $69.57, respectively, and as restated was $2.39 and $14.65, respectively. Net loss per share attributable to holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock was not previously presented. All related amounts have been updated to reflect the effects of the restatement throughout the financial statements and related footnotes, as applicable.
The Company computes net loss per share of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, and Series B Preferred Stock using the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and other participating securities.
The two-class method is an earnings (loss) allocation method under which earnings (loss) per share is calculated for each class of common stock. The Company has determined that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock do not have preferential rights when compared to the Company's Common Stock and therefore it must allocate losses to these other classes of common stock, as illustrated in the table below.
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares and pre-funded warrants outstanding during the period, without consideration of potential dilutive securities. The pre-funded warrants are included in the computation of basic net loss per share as the exercise price is negligible and they are fully vested and exercisable. For periods in which the Company generated a net loss, the Company does not include potential shares of common stock in diluted net loss per share when the impact of these items is anti-dilutive. The Company has generated a net loss for all periods presented, therefore diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share since the inclusion of potential shares of common stock would be anti-dilutive.

14. Restructuring Charges
Severance and Stock Compensation
On April 12, 2023, based on the review of the inconclusive interim results from the Company's Phase 1/2 clinical trial of pegtarviliase for the treatment of classical homocystinuria and other business considerations, the Company announced that it had initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value and engaged an independent exclusive financial advisor to support this process.
As a result, the Company implemented a restructuring plan resulting in an approximate 83% reduction of the Company’s existing headcount by June 30, 2023. The Company recognized restructuring expenses consisting of cash severance payments and other employee-related costs of nil and $6.4 million during the three
27


and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized $1.0 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to the accelerated vesting of stock-based awards for certain employees. The Company recorded these restructuring charges based on each employee’s role to the respective research and development and general and administrative operating expense categories on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Sale of Assets
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company sold various lab equipment, consumables, and furniture and fixtures for total consideration of $0.5 million. After recording the disposal of all property and equipment net of proceeds, the Company recorded a $0.7 million and $0.2 million loss on disposal of long lived assets within Research and development and General and administrative expenses, respectively.
Lease Right-of-use Asset and Leasehold Improvement Impairment
Effective June 30, 2023, the Company abandoned its leased office space in Austin, Texas. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $0.9 million related to the operating lease right-of-use asset and $1.7 million related to leasehold improvements. On August 7, 2023, the Company terminated its building lease in Austin, Texas. The negotiated termination agreement obligated the Company to pay the lessor a $2.0 million termination fee in exchange for releasing the Company of all further obligations under the lease.
All charges related to the restructuring activities were recognized during the second quarter of 2023. No further restructuring charges were incurred under the restructuring plan. A summary of the charges related to the restructuring activities is as follows (in thousands):
Severance Related ExpensesStock Compensation ExpensesLoss on Disposal of Long Lived AssetsLease Asset ImpairmentTotal Restructuring Costs
Research and development$3,182 $123 $749 $1,405 $5,459 
General and administrative3,266 870 182 1,175 5,493 
Total$6,448 $993 $931 $2,580 $10,952 
As of December 31, 2023, $1.1 million of restructuring costs remained outstanding and unpaid. As of September 30, 2024, there were no remaining liabilities under the restructuring plan described above.
15. Subsequent Events
On October 1, 2024, the Company appointed Sheldon Sloan, M.D., M. Bioethics, to serve as its Chief Medical Officer.
On October 11, 2024, the Company and Paragon entered into the SPY003 License Agreement, pursuant to which Paragon granted the Company a royalty-bearing, world-wide, exclusive license to develop, manufacture, commercialize or otherwise exploit certain antibodies and products targeting IL-23 in the field of IBD.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it 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. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit
28


under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
At the time the Company filed the Original Filing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the resaonable assurance level as of September 30, 2024. Subsequent to the Original Filing and solely in connection with this Amendment, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer reevaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as the Company did not design and maintain effective controls related to the earnings per share calculation. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Specifically, subsequent to the Original Filing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2024 as the Company did not design and maintain effective controls related to the earnings per share calculation, as there was not an effectively designed control in place to evaluate the treatment of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock for the purpose of calculating earnings per share under the two-class method. The material weakness resulted in the restatement of the Company’s previously filed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as the quarterly condensed consolidated financial information for the 2024 interim periods ended March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2024 related to earnings per share. Additionally, the material weakness could result in further misstatements of the earnings per share calculation that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Notwithstanding the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, have concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations and our cash flows for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Remediation Plan
Our remediation process includes, but is not limited to, enhancing the design of the control relevant to the calculation of net earnings (loss) per share calculations and disclosures to ensure that economic substance beyond the legal form of our capital structure is considered when calculating net earnings (loss) per share. We believe that these actions will remediate the material weakness. The material weakness will not be considered remediated, however, until the applicable controls operate, and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Amendment Description This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) for the period ended September 30, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2024 (the “Original Filing”).Subsequent to the filing of its Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company became aware of a misapplication of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") as it relates to the Company's exclusion of its Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock and Series B non-voting convertible preferred stock in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share and a finding of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting solely related to such matter. This Amendment is being filed for the sole purpose of amending certain disclosures from the Original Filing related to the aforementioned misapplication of U.S. GAAP and related finding of material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.Specifically, this Amendment amends: (i) Part I, Item 1. “Financial Information (unaudited)” to update the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations and related footnote disclosures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, (ii) Part I, Item 4. "Controls and Procedures" to address management's re-evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024 and to reflect the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and (iii) Part II, Item 6. "Exhibits" to include, in accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), updated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32.1. In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, this Amendment amends and restates in their entirety each item identified in the paragraph above.Other than as described above, this Amendment does not amend, update or change any other items or disclosures contained in the Original Filing, and accordingly, all other information contained in this Amendment is as of the date of the original filing and does not reflect subsequent information or events beyond the original filing date, November 7, 2024. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with other filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including any amendments to those filings. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Filing.

The Company was formed as a Limited Liability Company ("LLC") in Delaware on December 16, 2013 under the name Aeglea BioTherapeutics Holdings, LLC and was converted from a Delaware LLC to a Delaware corporation on March 10, 2015. On November 27, 2023, the Company completed its corporate rebranding, changing the name of the Company to Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. The Company operates in one segment and has its principal offices in Waltham, Massachusetts.
On September 8, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its Common Stock at a ratio of 1-for-25 (the “Reverse Split”). Except as indicated otherwise, all share numbers related to the Company's Common Stock disclosed in these financial statements have been adjusted on a post-Reverse Split basis.
On April 12, 2023, based on the review of the inconclusive interim results from the Company's Phase 1/2 clinical trial of pegtarviliase for the treatment of Classical Homocystinuria and other business considerations, the Company announced that it had initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value and engaged an independent exclusive financial advisor to support this process. As a result, in April 2023, the Company implemented a restructuring plan resulting in an approximate 83% reduction of the Company’s existing headcount.
On June 22, 2023, the Company acquired, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Acquisition Agreement"), the assets of Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. (“Pre-Merger Spyre”), a privately held biotechnology company advancing a pipeline of antibody therapeutics with the potential to transform the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease through a research and development option agreement ("Paragon Agreement") with Paragon Therapeutics, Inc. ("Paragon"). The asset acquisition was accomplished through a two-step reverse triangular merger whereby a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into Pre-Merger Spyre, which existed at the time the Acquisition Agreement was entered into, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. Immediately following this merger, Pre-Merger Spyre merged with and into a second wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement and Pre-Merger Spyre ceased to exist. Subsequently, Aeglea BioTherapeutics, Inc. was renamed Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. and is a different entity than Pre-Merger Spyre, which ceased to exist upon merging with Merger Sub. The transaction was structured as a stock-for-stock transaction pursuant to which all of Pre-Merger Spyre's outstanding equity interests were exchanged based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.5494488 to 1 for consideration from the Company of 517,809 shares of common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), and 364,887 shares of Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share ("Series A Preferred Stock") (convertible on a 40 to 1 basis), in addition to the assumption of outstanding and unexercised stock options to purchase 2,734 shares of Common Stock from the Amended and Restated Spyre 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Asset Acquisition"). The Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock related to the Asset Acquisition were issued to the Pre-Merger Spyre stockholders on July 7, 2023.
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, on June 26, 2023, the Company completed a private placement of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “June 2023 PIPE”) to a group of investors (the “June 2023 Investors”). The Company sold an aggregate of 721,452 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $210.0 million before deducting approximately $12.7 million in placement agent and other offering expenses (together with the Asset Acquisition, the “Transactions”).
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, a non-transferable contingent value right ("CVR") was distributed to stockholders of record of the Company as of the close of business on July 3, 2023 (the "Legacy Stockholders"), but was not distributed to the holders of shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock issued to the former stockholders of Pre-Merger Spyre or the June 2023 Investors in the Transactions. Holders of the CVRs will be entitled to receive cash payments from proceeds received by the Company for a three-year
period related to the disposition or monetization of its legacy assets for a period of one-year following the closing of the Asset Acquisition.
On November 21, 2023, the Company's stockholders approved the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock. A total of 649,302 shares of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted to 25,972,080 shares of Common Stock; 437,037 shares of Series A Preferred Stock did not automatically convert and remained outstanding after the conversion.
On December 11, 2023, the Company completed a private placement of shares of Common Stock and Series B non-voting convertible preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share ("Series B Preferred Stock") (convertible on a 40 to 1 basis) (the “December 2023 PIPE”) to a group of investors. The Company sold an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 150,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $180.0 million before deducting approximately $10.9 million of placement agent and other offering expenses.
On March 20, 2024, the Company completed a private placement of Series B Preferred Stock (convertible on a 40 to 1 basis) (the “March 2024 PIPE”) to a group of investors. The Company sold 121,625 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $180.0 million before deducting approximately $11.2 million of placement agent and other offering costs.
On April 23, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Fairmount Healthcare Fund II L.P. (the “Stockholder”), pursuant to which the Stockholder agreed to exchange an aggregate of 90,992 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 3,639,680 shares of Common Stock (the “April 2024 Exchange”). The Common Stock issued in connection with the April 2024 Exchange was issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on the exemption from registration contained in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The April 2024 Exchange closed on April 25, 2024, with 346,045 shares of Series A Preferred Stock remaining outstanding following the April 2024 Exchange.
On May 14, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock to Common Stock. A total of 254,958 shares of Series B Preferred Stock automatically converted to 10,198,320 shares of Common Stock; 16,667 shares of Series B Preferred Stock did not automatically convert and remained outstanding as of September 30, 2024.
On September 6, 2024, the Company filed a new shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that was declared effective by the SEC for the potential offering, issuance and sale by the Company of up to $500.0 million of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and/or units consisting of all or some of these securities. Concurrent with the filing of the shelf-registration statement, the Company entered into a sales agreement with TD Securities (USA) LLC (“TD Cowen”), as its sales agent, pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock for an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million under an at-the-market (“ATM’) offering program included in the shelf registration. In September 2024, the Company sold 426,287 shares of common stock under the ATM at a price per share of $28.15, resulting in net proceeds of $11.8 million.
Liquidity
The Company is a clinical stage biotechnology company with a limited operating history, and due to its significant research and development expenditures, the Company has generated operating losses since its inception and has not generated any revenue from the commercial sale of any products. There can be no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, and, if achieved, whether profitability can be sustained on a continuing basis.
Since its inception and through September 30, 2024, the Company has funded its operations by raising an aggregate of approximately $1.1 billion of gross proceeds from the sale and issuance of convertible preferred stock and common stock, pre-funded warrants, the collection of grant proceeds, and the licensing of its product rights for commercialization of pegzilarginase in Europe and certain countries in the Middle East. As of September 30, 2024, Spyre had an accumulated deficit of $916.1 million, and cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $414.2 million.
Based on current operating plans, the Company has sufficient resources to fund operations for at least one year from the issuance date of these financial statements with existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Spyre will need to secure additional financing in the future to fund additional research and development, and before a commercial drug can be produced, marketed and sold. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing or generate license or product revenue, the lack of liquidity could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or balance sheets.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2024, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, changes in convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or for any other future annual or interim period. The December 31, 2023 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "Annual Report") as filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024 and amended on March 1, 2024 and November 18, 2024.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC instructions for interim financial information, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report. Significant accounting policies and other disclosures normally provided have been omitted since such items are disclosed in the Company's Annual Report. The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements.
Other than policies noted below, there have been no significant changes from the significant accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the Notes titled “1. The Company and Basis of Presentation” and "2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Company's Annual Report.
License Agreements Contingent Milestone Payments
The Company’s license agreements include specific development, regulatory, and clinical milestone payments that are payable upon the resolution of a contingency, such as upon the selection of a development candidate, first dosing of a human patient in clinical trials or receipt of the Food Drug and Administration’s (“FDA”) approval of a Spyre drug. The achievement of these milestone payments involves many factors outside of the Company’s control and therefore the associated likelihood cannot be considered probable until the
related contingency is resolved. Based on the preceding, the Company accrues each milestone payment upon the achievement of the applicable milestone event.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.
Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03 to require more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.

The Company measures the fair value of money market funds and U.S. government treasury securities on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Level 2 assets include U.S. government agency securities, commercial paper and corporate bonds, and are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are derived from observable market data. The Company evaluates transfers between levels at the end of each reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the periods presented.
Parapyre Option Obligation
Under the Paragon Agreement, the Company is obligated to issue Parapyre Holding LLC ("Parapyre") an annual equity grant of warrants, on the last business day of each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, to purchase 1% of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, on a fully diluted basis, during the term of the Paragon Agreement (the "Parapyre Option Obligation"). The Company determined that the 2023 and 2024 grants are two separate grants, as there would be no obligation for the 2024 grant had the Company exercised or terminated all of the options under the Paragon Agreement prior to December 31, 2023. The service inception period for the grant precedes the grant date, with the full award being vested as of the grant date with no post-grant date service requirement. Accordingly, a liability related to the Parapyre Option Obligation is recorded pursuant to the Paragon Agreement during interim periods. On December 31, 2023, the Company settled its 2023 obligation under the Parapyre Option Obligation by issuing Parapyre 684,407 warrants to purchase the Company's Common Stock, with a $21.52 per share exercise price for each warrant.
The Parapyre Option Obligation is considered a Level 2 liability based on observable market data for substantially the full term of the liability. The Parapyre Option Obligation is measured each period using a Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the option grant. Changes in the fair value of the Parapyre Option Obligation are recorded as stock-based compensation within Research and development expenses for non-employees who provided pre-clinical development services.
CVR Liability
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, a non-transferable CVR was distributed to the Legacy Stockholders, but was not distributed to holders of shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock issued to the June 2023 Investors or former stockholders of Pre-Merger Spyre in connection with the Transactions. Holders of the CVR will be entitled to receive certain cash payments from proceeds received by the Company for a three-year period, if any, related to the disposition or monetization of the Company’s legacy assets for a period of one year following the closing of the Asset Acquisition.
The fair value of the CVR liability was determined using the probability weighted discounted cash flow method to estimate future cash flows associated with the sale of the legacy assets. Analogous to a dividend being declared/approved in one period and paid out in another, the liability was recorded at the date of approval, June 22, 2023, as a Common Stock dividend, returning capital to the Legacy Stockholders. Changes in fair
value of the liability will be recognized as a component of Other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss in each reporting period. The liability value is based on significant inputs not observable in the market such as estimated cash flows, estimated probabilities of regulatory success, and discount rates, which represent a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
The significant inputs used to estimate the fair value of the CVR liability were as follows:
 September 30, 2024
Estimated cash flow dates
05/28/25 - 06/22/26
Estimated probability of success
72% - 100%
Estimated reimbursement rate compared to reimbursement target
81% - 100%
Risk-adjusted discount rates
7.76% - 7.82%
The change in fair value between December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2024 was a $19.6 million increase, primarily driven by changes in the likelihood of achievement of certain milestones and the time value of money, partially offset by an increase in risk-adjusted discount rates.
The following table presents changes in the CVR liability for the periods presented (in thousands):
 
CVR Liability
Beginning balance as of December 31, 2023$42,700 
Changes in the fair value of the CVR liability19,630 
Payments(1,430)
Ending Balance as of September 30, 2024$60,900 
Forward Contract Liability
In connection with the Asset Acquisition, the Company entered into a contract for the issuance of 364,887 shares of Series A Preferred Stock as part of the consideration transferred. This forward contract was classified as a liability because the underlying preferred shares were contingently redeemable. The forward contract was carried at fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in fair value between the acquisition date and June 30, 2023 recorded in earnings. The liability was settled with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock on July 7, 2023.
The fair value of the forward contract as of the acquisition date, June 22, 2023, was $106.2 million. The liability was settled with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock on July 7, 2023 for $189.7 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, $25.4 million and $83.5 million, respectively, was recorded as Other (expense) income in the consolidated statements of operations in connection with the change in fair value of the forward contract liability.

The Company evaluated its securities for credit losses and considered the decline in market value to be primarily attributable to current economic and market conditions and not to a credit loss or other factors. Additionally, the Company does not intend to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position and does not expect it will be required to sell the securities before recovery of the unamortized cost basis. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, an allowance for credit losses had not been recognized. Given the Company's intent and ability to hold such securities until recovery, and the lack of significant change in credit risk of these investments, the Company does not consider these marketable securities to be impaired as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits. Accounts at each of our two U.S. banking institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per depositor. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash deposits at the Company's U.S. banking institutions exceeded the FDIC limits. Uninsured foreign cash deposits were immaterial for both periods.
There were no realized gains or losses on marketable securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Interest on marketable securities is included in interest income. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale debt securities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was $1.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and is reflected in Prepaid expenses and other current assets.

The Company may sell investments at any time for use in current operations even if they have not yet reached maturity. As a result, the Company classifies marketable securities, including securities with maturities beyond twelve months as current assets.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]  
Asset Acquisition Asset Acquisition
On June 22, 2023, the Company acquired Pre-Merger Spyre pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, by and among the Company, Aspen Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), Sequoia Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), and Pre-Merger Spyre. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, First Merger Sub merged with and into Pre-Merger Spyre, pursuant to which Pre-Merger Spyre was the surviving corporation and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “First Merger”). Immediately following the First Merger, Pre-Merger Spyre merged with and into Second Merger Sub, pursuant to which Second Merger Sub became the surviving entity. Pre-Merger Spyre was a pre-clinical stage biotechnology company that was incorporated on April 28, 2023 under the direction of Peter Harwin, a Managing Member of Fairmount, for the purpose of holding rights to certain intellectual property being developed by Paragon. Fairmount is a founder of Paragon.
The Company completed the Asset Acquisition of Pre-Merger Spyre, in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement. Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, the Company issued 517,809 shares of Common Stock and 364,887 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to former Pre-Merger Spyre security holders. In addition, outstanding and unexercised stock options to purchase 2,734 shares of common stock were assumed from the Amended and Restated Spyre 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.
At the acquisition date, the Company recorded forward contracts to represent the obligation to issue shares of Common Stock and shares of Series A Preferred Stock, respectively. The forward contract related to the Common Stock was recorded as Additional paid-in capital as the instrument is indexed to the Common Stock. The forward contract related to the Series A Preferred Stock was recorded as a liability, as the underlying stock has a cash redemption feature. On July 7, 2023, both the shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock were issued and the forward contract liability associated with the Series A Preferred Stock was settled accordingly.
The Company concluded that the arrangement met the definition of an asset acquisition rather than a business combination, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identifiable asset, Pre-Merger Spyre's option to exclusively license certain intellectual property rights (the "Option"). The Company determined that the Option was a single asset as the Company's strategy relied on developing the entire portfolio of individual treatments to create combination treatments that simultaneously address different mechanisms of inflammatory bowel disease with a single treatment. The Company also determined that the pipeline candidates within the portfolio were similar in nature and risk profile. In addition, the Company did not obtain any substantive processes, assembled workforce, or employees capable of producing outputs in connection with the Asset Acquisition.
The Company determined that the cost to acquire the asset was $113.2 million which was recorded as acquired in-process research and development ("IPR&D"). The fair value of the consideration issued consisted of the 364,887 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (14,595,480 shares of Common Stock on an as-converted basis) and 517,809 shares of Common Stock, valued at $291.08 per share and $7.277 per share, respectively.
The Asset Acquisition costs are shown on the following table (in millions):

On March 21, 2021, the Company entered into an exclusive license and supply agreement with Immedica (the "Immedica Agreement"). On July 27, 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell the global rights to pegzilarginase, an investigational treatment for the rare metabolic disease Arginase 1 Deficiency, to Immedica for $15.0 million in upfront cash proceeds and up to $100.0 million in contingent milestone payments. The sale of pegzilarginase to Immedica superseded and terminated the Immedica Agreement.
The milestone payments are contingent on formal reimbursement decisions by national authorities in key European markets and pegzilarginase approval by the FDA, among other events. In addition to the payment previously made to holders of the Company's CVRs (as defined in Note 1) related to the upfront cash proceeds, any contingent milestone payments under the Immedica Agreement, if paid within the CVR period, will be distributed to holders of the Company's CVRs net of expenses and adjustments pursuant to the contingent value rights agreement we entered into with Equiniti Trust Company LLC (f/k/a American Stock Transfer & Trust Company LLC) as rights agent in connection with the Asset Acquisition.
The Company did not recognize any revenue under the Immedica Agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $0.9 million of development fee revenue in connection with the Immedica Agreement, which was attributable to the PEACE Phase 3 trial and BLA package for pegzilarginase. There was no such revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
For more details on the Immedica Agreement, which was terminated on July 27, 2023, please refer to the Note under Item 1 of Part I, titled "12. Strategic License Agreements" of the Company's Annual Report.
Contract Balances from Customer Contract
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in contract assets and contract liabilities on the Company's balance sheets. The Company recognizes license and development receivables based on billed services, which are derecognized upon reimbursement. When consideration is received, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a contract, a contract liability is recorded. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue after control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria have been met.
The Company did not have any contract assets or liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Sale of Pegzilarginase to Immedica Sale of Pegzilarginase to Immedica
On July 27, 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell the global rights to pegzilarginase, an investigational treatment for the rare metabolic disease Arginase 1 Deficiency, to Immedica for $15.0 million in upfront cash proceeds and up to $100.0 million in contingent milestone payments. The sale of pegzilarginase to Immedica superseded and terminated the previous license agreement between the Company and Immedica. On July 27, 2023, the carrying value of the asset was zero as it was internally developed. Accordingly the Company recognized a $14.6 million gain within operating expenses, which is the full $15.0 million in upfront cash proceeds, net of transaction costs and the derecognition of pegzilarginase related nonfinancial assets and liabilities.
The milestone payments are contingent on formal reimbursement decisions by national authorities in key European markets and pegzilarginase approval by the FDA, among other events. The upfront payment and contingent milestone payments if paid, net of expenses and adjustments, will be distributed to holders of Aeglea’s CVR pursuant to the CVR Agreement resulting from the Asset Acquisition.

Restatement
Subsequent to the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024, management identified an error related to the calculation and presentation of loss per share. The Company had previously concluded that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock had preferences over the Company's Common Stock and were therefore excluded from the calculation of basic and dilutive net loss per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company has now determined that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock do not have preferential rights over the Company’s Common Stock and, accordingly, are considered to be a second and third class of common stock for purposes of calculating net loss per share. Consequently, the Company has now separately calculated and presented net loss per share for its Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, loss per share attributable to common stockholders as previously presented was $1.36 and $9.34, respectively, and as restated was $1.06 and $0.86, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, loss per share attributable to common stockholders as previously presented was $3.43 and $69.57, respectively, and as restated was $2.39 and $14.65, respectively. Net loss per share attributable to holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock was not previously presented. All related amounts have been updated to reflect the effects of the restatement throughout the financial statements and related footnotes, as applicable.
The Company computes net loss per share of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, and Series B Preferred Stock using the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and other participating securities.
The two-class method is an earnings (loss) allocation method under which earnings (loss) per share is calculated for each class of common stock. The Company has determined that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock do not have preferential rights when compared to the Company's Common Stock and therefore it must allocate losses to these other classes of common stock, as illustrated in the table below.
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares and pre-funded warrants outstanding during the period, without consideration of potential dilutive securities. The pre-funded warrants are included in the computation of basic net loss per share as the exercise price is negligible and they are fully vested and exercisable. For periods in which the Company generated a net loss, the Company does not include potential shares of common stock in diluted net loss per share when the impact of these items is anti-dilutive. The Company has generated a net loss for all periods presented, therefore diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share since the inclusion of potential shares of common stock would be anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, and Series B Preferred Stock (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]  
Restructuring Charges Restructuring Charges
Severance and Stock Compensation
On April 12, 2023, based on the review of the inconclusive interim results from the Company's Phase 1/2 clinical trial of pegtarviliase for the treatment of classical homocystinuria and other business considerations, the Company announced that it had initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value and engaged an independent exclusive financial advisor to support this process.
As a result, the Company implemented a restructuring plan resulting in an approximate 83% reduction of the Company’s existing headcount by June 30, 2023. The Company recognized restructuring expenses consisting of cash severance payments and other employee-related costs of nil and $6.4 million during the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized $1.0 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to the accelerated vesting of stock-based awards for certain employees. The Company recorded these restructuring charges based on each employee’s role to the respective research and development and general and administrative operating expense categories on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Sale of Assets
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company sold various lab equipment, consumables, and furniture and fixtures for total consideration of $0.5 million. After recording the disposal of all property and equipment net of proceeds, the Company recorded a $0.7 million and $0.2 million loss on disposal of long lived assets within Research and development and General and administrative expenses, respectively.
Lease Right-of-use Asset and Leasehold Improvement Impairment
Effective June 30, 2023, the Company abandoned its leased office space in Austin, Texas. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $0.9 million related to the operating lease right-of-use asset and $1.7 million related to leasehold improvements. On August 7, 2023, the Company terminated its building lease in Austin, Texas. The negotiated termination agreement obligated the Company to pay the lessor a $2.0 million termination fee in exchange for releasing the Company of all further obligations under the lease.
All charges related to the restructuring activities were recognized during the second quarter of 2023. No further restructuring charges were incurred under the restructuring plan. A summary of the charges related to the restructuring activities is as follows (in thousands):

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or balance sheets.
License Agreements Contingent Milestone Payments
License Agreements Contingent Milestone Payments
The Company’s license agreements include specific development, regulatory, and clinical milestone payments that are payable upon the resolution of a contingency, such as upon the selection of a development candidate, first dosing of a human patient in clinical trials or receipt of the Food Drug and Administration’s (“FDA”) approval of a Spyre drug. The achievement of these milestone payments involves many factors outside of the Company’s control and therefore the associated likelihood cannot be considered probable until the
related contingency is resolved. Based on the preceding, the Company accrues each milestone payment upon the achievement of the applicable milestone event.
Recently Adopted and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.
Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03 to require more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.
