In addition to the above factors, the risks and uncertainties related to the Merger (described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) include, but are not limited to: risks related to the Company’s ability to complete the Merger on the proposed terms or on the proposed timeline, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals; the possibility that competing offers will be made; and other risks associated with executing business combination transactions, such as disruption from the proposed acquisition making it more difficult to conduct business as usual or to maintain relationships with customers, employees, manufacturers, suppliers or patient groups. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are only predictions, and we may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations included in our forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Except as required by law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Organization

Nature of BusinessThe Company

Kadmon Holdings, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Kadmon” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of small molecules and biologics to address significant unmet medical needs, with a near-term clinical focus on immune and fibrotic diseases as well as immuno-oncology. The Company leverages its multi-disciplinary research and development team members to identify and pursue a diverse portfolio of novel product candidates, both through in-licensing products and employing its small molecule and biologics platforms.

In July 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved REZUROCK™ (belumosudil) 200 mg once daily (“QD”) for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older with chronic graft-versus-host disease (“cGVHD”) after failure of at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. REZUROCK was made available in the United States in August 2021.

Pending Acquisition by Sanofi

On September 7, 2021, Kadmon entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Sanofi, a French société anonyme (“Sanofi”), and Latour Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Sanofi (“Merger Subsidiary”), providing for the merger of Merger Subsidiary with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Sanofi (the “Parent”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this section “Pending Acquisition by Sanofi” have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) has unanimously approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement and recommended that the stockholders of the Company adopt the Merger Agreement. At the Effective Time of the Merger:

each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares, Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of the Company or Parent) will be cancelled and cease to exist and automatically convert into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to $9.50, without interest (the “Common Stock Merger Consideration”);

each share of 5% convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Company Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) will be cancelled and cease to exist and automatically convert into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the Stated Liquidation Preference Amount (as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Designation dated July 26, 2016) plus any dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon from the last Dividend Payment Date (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) through the closing date of the Merger and (ii) the amount that would be payable per share of Company Preferred Stock if such share of Company Preferred Stock had been converted to Company Common Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Preferred Stock Merger Consideration”);

all unvested options to purchase Company Common Stock (“Company Options”) which are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will fully vest and become exercisable and, to the extent not exercised prior to the Effective Time, be canceled at the Effective Time with the former holder of such canceled Company Option becoming entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to any applicable withholding or other taxes, or other amount as required by law) equal to (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option multiplied by (2) the excess, if any, of the Common Stock Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such Company Option; provided that each Company Option with an exercise price per share equal to or greater than the Common Stock Merger Consideration will be canceled without consideration;

Table of Contents

all unvested stock appreciation rights granted by the Company (“Company SARs”) which are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will fully vest and, to the extent not exercised prior to the Effective Time, be canceled at the Effective Time, with the former holder of such canceled Company SAR becoming entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to any applicable withholding or other taxes, or other amount as required by law) equal to (A) the excess, if any, of the Common Stock Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such Company SAR multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company SAR; provided that each Company SAR with an exercise price per share equal to or greater than the Common Stock Merger Consideration will be canceled without consideration; and

all unvested equity appreciation rights granted by the Company (“Company EARs”) which are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will fully vest and be canceled at the Effective Time, with the former holder of such canceled Company EAR becoming entitled to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to any applicable withholding or other taxes, or other amount as required by law) equal to (A) the excess of the Common Stock Merger Consideration over the base price per share of such Company EAR multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Company EAR; provided that each Company EAR with a base price per share equal to or greater than the Common Stock Merger Consideration will be canceled without consideration.

Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including, without limitation, the absence of certain legal impediments and approval by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock, voting on an as converted to Company Common Stock basis, entitled to vote on such matter.

The Company has made representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement and has agreed to covenants regarding the operation of the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time. The Company is also subject to customary restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties and to provide non-public information to, and participate in discussions and engage in negotiations with, third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants requiring the Board, subject to certain exceptions, to recommend that the Company’s stockholders approve the Merger. Prior to the approval of the Merger by the Company’s stockholders, the Board may withhold, withdraw, qualify, or modify its recommendation that the Company’s stockholders approve the Merger because of a Company Intervening Event or may adopt, approve or recommend any Superior Proposal, subject to complying with notice and other specified conditions.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both the Company and Parent, including that, subject to certain limitations, (i) the Company or Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger is not consummated by March 7, 2022, (ii) the Company and Parent may mutually agree to terminate the Merger Agreement, (iii) the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement to accept a Superior Proposal and (iv) Parent may terminate the Merger Agreement because the Board changes its recommendation to the Company stockholders with respect to approval of the Merger.

The Company will be required to pay a termination fee of $60.1 million in the event that the Company terminates the Merger Agreement to accept a Superior Proposal or if Parent terminates the Merger Agreement because the Board changes its recommendation to the Company’s stockholders to approve the Merger. In addition, the Company will be required to pay the termination fee under specified circumstances if, within 12 months after the termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company enters into or consummates a Competing Acquisition Transaction.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 8, 2021 and incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the approval of the Merger Agreement, the Board approved certain amendments to the employment agreements between the Company and each of Harlan W. Waksal, M.D., the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Steven Meehan, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Gregory S. Moss, the Company’s Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, Chief Compliance Officer (the “Employment Agreement Amendments”). The Employment Agreement Amendments provide for the payment of retention bonuses in the amount of $3.5 million to Dr. Waksal and $1.0 million to each of Mr. Meehan and Mr. Moss (the “Retention Bonuses”). The Retention Bonuses shall be paid as follows: (1) 25% of the Retention Bonus shall be paid on the date the Merger Agreement is fully executed and (2) the remaining 75% of the Retention Bonus will be earned at the Closing Date, subject to the executive’s continuous and active employment with the Company through such date, with certain exceptions.

The Company incurred transaction-related costs of approximately $6.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, inclusive of $1.4 million related to the Employment Agreement Amendment, which are recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19 Update

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility in financial markets. While the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cybersecurity and liquidity have not been materially impacted by the direct effects of the pandemic, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. The Company is continuing to monitor developments with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic and to make adjustments as needed to assist in protecting the safety of the Company’s employees and communities while continuing business activities. To date, implementation of these measures has not required material expenditures or significantly impacted these unaudited financial statements. The Company is continuing to monitor the potential impacts of COVID-19 on its operations and those of its partners, suppliers, customers, and regulators, including commercial and clinical drug supply chain continuity and commercial launch of REZUROCK.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company cannot precisely predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have in the future due to numerous uncertainties, including the severity of the disease and its variants, the duration of the pandemic, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, the impact to the business of potential variations or disruptions in the Company’s supply chain. The Company will continue to closely monitor and evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to its business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition.

Liquidity

The Company maintained cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities of $150.5$251.6 million at September 30, 2020.2021. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $415.7$538.1 million and working capital of $134.2$237.2 million at September 30, 2020. The Company entered into a Sales Agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”) in August 2017 under which2021. On February 16, 2021, the Company could sell up to $50.0issued $240.0 million in sharesaggregate principal amount of its common stock in one or more placements at prevailing market prices for its common stock3.625% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “ATM Program”"Notes"). Any such sales would be effected, pursuant to an Indenture dated February 16, 2021, between the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-233766), which was declared effective byCompany and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 24, 2019. In May 2020,Act. On February 10, 2021, concurrently with the Company sold 11,060,786 sharespricing of common stock at a weighted average price of $4.52 per share through the ATM Program and received total net proceeds of $48.5 million (net of $1.5 million of commissions payable by the Company to Cantor). Under this registration statement, the Company registered to sell, in one or more transactions, up to $200.0 million of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, purchase contracts and units. The Company had sold securities totaling an aggregate of $151.5 million pursuant to this registration statement as of September 30, 2020. In May 2020,Notes, the Company entered into a single transaction pursuant to which it sold approximately 1.1 million ordinary shares of MeiraGTx Holdings plc (“MeiraGTx”privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) for gross proceeds of $15.5 million. In July 2020, the Company entered into an additional single transaction pursuant to which it sold approximately 0.3 million ordinary shares of MeiraGTx for gross proceeds of $4.2 million.with certain financial institutions. The Company expects thatused approximately $33.0 million of the net proceeds from the Notes offering to pay for the cost of the Capped Call Transactions (Note 5). The net proceeds from the offering were $199.4 million after deducting issuance costs and the cost of Capped Call Transactions.

Based on the Company’s expectations for revenue, operating expenses, and its cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities available on hand at September 30, 2021, the Company believes it will enable itcontinue to be able to advance its planned commercial launch efforts for belumosudil, if approved,REZUROCK (belumosudil), advance certain of its other pipeline product candidates, including KD033, and KD045, and provide for other working capital purposes.purposes. Although cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities available at September 30, 2021 is expected to execute the Company’s current business plans, it may not be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its long-term expected plans. The Company has sustained operating losses for the majority of its corporate history and the Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows until revenues reach a level sufficient to support ongoing operations.

The Company’s future liquidity needs and ability to address those needs will be largely determined by the success of operations in regard to the successful commercialization of REZUROCK and the progression of its product candidates in the future, scope and magnitude of its commercial expenses and key development and regulatory events in the future. Management’s plans may include continuing to finance operations through the issuance of debt and sale of additional equity securities, monetization of assets, including the Company’s ownership of MeiraGTx ordinary shares, and expanding the Company’s commercial portfolio through the development of its current pipeline or through strategic collaborations. The Company has no commitments for any additional financing and may not be successful in its efforts to raise additional funds or achieve profitable operations. Any transactions that occur may contain covenants that restrict the ability of management to operate the business or may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the Company’s common stock and may dilute current stockholders of the Company.

The Company also filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-238969) on June 5, 2020, which was declared effective by the SECU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 16, 2020.

The Company has not established a sourcesold any securities pursuant to this ATM Program as of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, and as such, has been dependent on funding operations through the issuance of debt and sale of equity securities. Since inception, the Company has experienced significant losses and incurred negative cash flows from operations. The Company expects to incur further losses over the next several years as it develops its business. The Company has spent, and expects to continue to spend, a substantial amount of funds in connection with implementing its business strategy, including its planned product development efforts, preparation for its planned clinical trials, performance of clinical trials and its research and discovery efforts.September 30, 2021.

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities will not be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its long-term expected plans, including commercialization of clinical pipeline products, if approved, or initiation or completion of future registration studies. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative near-term impact on capital markets and may impact the Company’s ability to access capital.

The Company has no current commitments for additional financing and may not be successful in its efforts to raise additional funds or achieve profitable operations, and there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to the Company on commercially acceptable terms or at all. Any amounts raised will be used for further development of the Company’s product candidates, for marketing and promotion, to secure additional property and equipment and for other working capital purposes.

If the Company is unable to obtain additional capital (which is not assured at this time), its long-term business plan may not be accomplished and the Company may be forced to curtail or cease operations. These factors individually and collectively raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments or classifications that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company operates in 1 segment considering the nature of the Company’s products and services, class of customers, methods used to distribute its products and the regulatory environment in which the Company operates. The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Kadmon Holdings, Inc. and its domestic and international subsidiaries all of which are wholly owned by Kadmon Holdings, Inc., have been prepared in accordance with GAAPaccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the Company’s opinion, the financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the final results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.2021.

These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020, filed with the SEC on March 4, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates are related to share-based compensation (Note 10) and the accrual of research and development and clinical trial expenses (Note 11).

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020, filed with the SEC on March 4, 2021. Since the date of such financial statements, there have been no changes or updates to the Company’s significant accounting policies, other than those described below.

Debt

On April 15, 2020, the Company received the proceeds from a loan in the amount of approximately $3.1 million (the “Loan”) from PNC Bank, National Association, as lender, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The Loan matures on April 15, 2022 and bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum. On August 20, 2020, the loan was amended so that, commencing August 15, 2021, the Company is required to pay the lender equal monthly payments of principal and interest as required to fully amortize by April 15, 2022 the principal amount outstanding on the Loan as of October 15, 2020. The Loan is evidenced by a promissory note dated April 15, 2020 (the “Note”), which contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breaches of representations and warranties. The Loan may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties.

The application for these funds required the Company to certify in good faith that the then current economic uncertainty made the loan request necessary to support the ongoing operations of the Company. This certification further required the Company to take into account its current business activity and its ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support ongoing operations in a manner that is not significantly detrimental to the business. The Company made this good faith assertion based upon various factors, including the degree of uncertainty introduced to the capital markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Company’s dependency on its ability to raise capital to fund ongoing operations.

All or a portion of the Loan may be forgiven by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) upon application by the Company upon documentation of expenditures in accordance with the SBA requirements. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of eligible and documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, covered mortgage interest and covered utilities during the eight-week period beginning on the date of loan approval. If, despite the Company’s good-faith belief that given the circumstances the Company satisfied all eligibility requirements for the Loan, the Company is later determined to have violated any applicable laws or regulations or it is otherwise determined that the Company was ineligible to receive the Loan, the Company may be required to repay the Loan in its entirety and/or be subject to additional penalties. In the event the Loan, or any portion thereof, is forgiven pursuant to the PPP, the amount forgiven is applied to outstanding principal.

The Company used all proceeds from the Loan to retain employees, maintain payroll and make lease, rent and utility payments. Under the terms of the loan, the Company may be eligible for full or partial loan forgiveness. The Company has begun preparations to apply for forgiveness, however, no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness for any portion of the Loan.

The Company has accounted for the Loan as a debt instrument in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470, Debt. At September 30, 2020, $0.7 million of principal payments due in the third quarter of 2021 have been recorded as short-term debt and the remaining balance of $2.4 million is recorded as long-term debt. The Company does not expect to incur any material interest expense under the Loan.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Debt Securities

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the time of acquisition to be cash equivalents.

Marketable debt securities are considered to be available-for-sale and are carried at fair market value. The estimated fair value of the available-for-sale marketable debt securities is determined based on quoted market prices or rates for similar instruments. Unrealized gains and losses, if any, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The cost of marketable debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization and accretion is included in other (expense) income. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary, if any, are also included in other (expense) income. Interest and dividends on available-for-sale securities are included in other income.

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt securities at the time of purchase. All of the Company’s debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are reported as short-term or long-term based on maturity dates and whether such assets are available for use in current operations and are reasonably expected to be realized in cash or sold or consumed during the normal cycle of business. Our available-for-sale debt securities generally have contractual maturity dates between six and eighteen months.

The Company reviews investments for other-than-temporary impairment whenever the fair value of an investment is less than the amortized cost and evidence indicates that an investment’s carrying amount is not recoverable within a reasonable period of time. Other-than-temporary impairments of investments are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations if the Company experienced a credit loss and have the intent to sell the investment or if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the amortized cost basis. Evidence considered in this assessment includes reasons for the impairment, compliance withfollowing tables summarize the Company’s investment policy, the severitycash, cash equivalents and the durationmarketable debt securities as of the impairmentSeptember 30, 2021 and changes in value subsequent to the end of the period.December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

At September 30, 2020,2021, the Company had invested in 1529 available-for-sale marketable debt securities that were in an unrealized loss position for less than one year and 0 securities in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months.one year. The aggregate fair value of debt securities in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 20202021 was $36.7$133.2 million. The unrealized losses of less than $0.1 million related to these corporate debt securities were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2020.2021. Unrealized losses on corporate debt securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers’ bonds are of high credit quality (rated A3/A- or higher), management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to market conditions and/or changes in interest rates. The issuers continue to make timely interest payments on the bonds. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity and the Company does not believe any unrealized losses represent other-than-temporary impairments.

Convertible Notes Transaction

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”) to address the complexity associated with applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU includes amendments to the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating the cash conversion accounting model for convertible instruments. The Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2021, and the standard did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements. By adopting ASU 2020-06, the Company eliminates the separation model for convertible debt and the requirement to separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt.

In February 2021, the Company issued $240.0 million in aggregate principal of 3.625% convertible senior notes due February 15, 2027 (Note 5). The Company accounts for the convertible notes wholly as debt in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470, Debt. The Company does not separately account for the liability and equity components of convertible notes transactions that can be settled in cash by allocating the proceeds from issuance between the liability component and the embedded conversion option. The Company recognizes amortization of the debt discount related to issuance costs as interest expense using the effective interest method.

In February 2021, the Company purchased capped call options from financial institutions to minimize the impact of potential dilution of Kadmon common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes. The capped call options meet the definition of a derivative in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), however, qualify for derivative scope exception under ASC 815 for instruments indexed to a company’s own stock. Accordingly, the premiums for the capped call options were recorded as additional paid-in capital on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as the options are settleable in Kadmon common stock at the election of the Company. See Note 5 for additional information.

Embedded Derivatives

The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments as either equity or liabilities in accordance with ASC 815, based on the characteristics and provisions of each instrument. Embedded derivatives are required to be bifurcated from the host instruments and recorded at fair value if the derivatives are not clearly and closely related to the host instruments on the date of issuance. The Company’s convertible notes (Note 5) contain certain features that, in accordance with ASC 815, are not clearly and closely related to the host instrument and represent derivatives that are required to be re-measured at fair value each reporting period. The Company determined that the estimated fair value of the derivatives at issuance and as of September 30, 2021 were not material based on a scenario-based cash flow model that uses unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions. Should the Company’s assessment of the probabilities around these scenarios change, including due to changes in market conditions, there could be a change to the fair value.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company’s revenues have primarily been generated through product sales, collaborative research, development and commercialization license agreements, and other service agreements. The following table summarizes revenue from contracts with customers for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20202021 and 20192020 (in thousands):

Product Sales

These contracts typically include a single promise to deliver a fixed amount of product to thea customer with payment due within 30-60 days of shipment.shipment, with a prompt pay discount for payments made within the terms of the applicable contract. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods.goods, which generally occurs upon delivery. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. The Company has not recognized any assets for costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer as of September 30, 2020.2021.

On July 16, 2021, the FDA approved REZUROCK for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older with cGVHD after failure of at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. The Company expects REZUROCK to be its principal source of product sales in the future. For REZUROCK, the Company will classify payments to its customers for certain services provided by its customers as reductions to revenue.

The Company sells REZUROCK to patients through a limited distribution network of specialty pharmacy and specialty distributors in the United States. Net revenue from sales of REZUROCK will be recorded at net selling price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration for which reserves are established for (i) estimated government rebates, such as Medicaid and Medicare Part D reimbursements, and estimated managed care rebates, (ii) estimated chargebacks, (iii) estimated costs of co-payment assistance programs and (iv) product returns. These reserves are based on the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales and are classified as reductions of accounts receivable or as a current liability. Where appropriate, these estimates take into consideration items such as the Company’s current contractual and statutory requirements and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the applicable contract. The amount of variable consideration included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company's estimates. If actual results in the future vary from estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Government and Managed Care Rebates. The Company contracts with government agencies and managed care organizations or, collectively, third-party payors, so that REZUROCK will be eligible for purchase by, or partial or full reimbursement from, such third-party payors. The Company estimates the rebates it will provide to third-party payors and deducts these estimated amounts from total gross product revenues at the time the revenues are recognized. These reserves are recorded in the same period in which the revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. The Company estimates the rebates that it will provide to third-party payors based upon (i) the Company's contracts with these third-party payors, (ii) the government mandated discounts applicable to government-funded programs, (iii) a range of possible outcomes that are probability-weighted for the estimated payor mix, and (iv) product distribution information obtained from the Company's distribution network of specialty pharmacy and specialty distributors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $0.7 million of rebates expense as a reduction to revenue related to REZUROCK and has recorded a current liability of $0.7 million in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021.

Chargebacks. Chargebacks are discounts that occur when certain contracted customers, pharmacy benefit managers, insurance companies, government programs and group purchasing organizations purchase directly from the Company’s specialty distributors. These customers purchase the Company’s product under contracts negotiated between them and the Company’s specialty distributors. The specialty distributor, in turn, charges back to the Company the difference between the price the specialty distributor paid and the negotiated price paid by the contracted customers, which may be higher or lower than the specialty distributor’s purchase price from the Company. The Company estimates chargebacks and adjusts gross product revenues and accounts receivable based on the estimates at the time revenues are recognized. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $0.8 million of chargebacks expense as a reduction to revenue related to REZUROCK and has recorded a current liability of $0.2 million in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

Co-payment assistance and patient assistance programs. Patients who have commercial insurance and meet certain eligibility requirements may receive co-payment assistance. Based upon the terms of the program and co-payment assistance utilization reports received from the Company’s hub services provider, the Company is able to estimate the co-payment assistance amounts, which are recorded in the same period in which the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue. The Company also offers a patient assistance program that provides free drug product, for a limited period of time, to allow a patient’s insurance coverage to be established. Based on patient assistance program utilization reports provided by the Company’s hub services provider, the Company records gross revenue of the product provided and a full reduction of the revenue amount for the free drug discount. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $0.1 million of co-payments assistance expense as a reduction to revenue related to REZUROCK and has recorded a current liability of $0.1 million in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

Product returns. The Company provides contractual return rights to its customers, based on product dating and in instances where the product is damaged or defective. Non-acceptance of shipped drug product is reflected as a reversal of sales in the period in which the sales were originally recorded. Reserves for estimated returns are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period that the related revenue is recognized, as well as a liability. Estimates of returns are based on third party analogs of recent drug product launches and quantitative information provided by the Company's distribution network of specialty pharmacies and specialty distributors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $0.2 million of returns expense as a reduction to revenue related to REZUROCK and has recorded a liability of $0.2 million in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

License Revenue

License revenue in 2021 consists of a milestone payment earned pursuant to a strategic partnership entered into with BioNova Pharmaceuticals Ltd. to develop belumosudil (KD025) in China. The transaction price of $2.0 million was allocated to the single combined performance obligation under the contract and the performance obligation was completed during the third quarter of 2021. License revenue in 2020 consists of a milestone payment earned pursuant to a joint venture and license agreement entered into with Meiji Seika Pharma Co., Ltd (“Meiji”) to develop belumosudil (KD025) in Japan (Note 9). As of December 31, 2019, the Company had 1 performance obligation related to a license agreement with Meiji that had not yet been satisfied and for which the upfront cash payment had not been received.Japan. The transaction price of $6.0 million was allocated to the single combined performance obligation under the contract and the performance obligation was completed during the first quarter of 2020. There are 0 performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied and there is no transaction price allocated to future performance obligations as of September 30, 2020.2021.

Other Revenue

The other revenue generated by the Company is primarily related to a sublease agreement with MeiraGTx (Note 8)Holdings plc (“MeiraGTx”). The Company recognizes revenue related to sublease agreements as they are performed.

Cost of Sales

Cost of product sales includes the cost of producing and distributing inventories that are related to product revenue during the respective period, including royalties owed under license agreements (Note 9). In addition, shipping and handling costs for product shipments are recorded as incurred.

Concentration and Credit Risks

Risks from Third-Party Manufacturing and Distribution Concentration

The Company relies on single source manufacturers for active pharmaceutical ingredient and finished drug product manufacturing of product candidates in development and on a limited number of distributors for distribution of approved drug products. Delays in the manufacture or distribution of any product could adversely impact the commercial revenue and future inventory procurement of the Company’s product candidates.

Credit Risk

The Company’s receivables from sales of REZUROCK are primarily due from sixcustomers, accounting for approximately 96% of receivables from sales of REZUROCK and approximately 64% of total receivables, resulting in a concentration of credit risk. Sales of REZUROCK occur once an order of product has been received by the specialty pharmacy or specialty distributor customer. 

Aditionally, the Company’s receivables include approximately $6.4 million due from one customer related to a collaboration agreement. This receivable accounts for approximately 36% of total receivables, resulting in a credit risk.

Related Party Transactions

The Company’s related party transactions are disclosed in the audited financial statements included in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies–Related Party Transactions” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Since the date of such financial statements, there have been no changes to the Company’s related party transactions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”, which removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU is effective for annual or interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the standard to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606”, which requires transactions in collaborative arrangements to be accounted for under ASC 606 if the counterparty is a customer for a good or service (or bundle of goods and services) that is a distinct unit of account. The ASU also precludes entities from presenting consideration from transactions with a collaborator that is not a customer together with revenue recognized from contracts with customers. The Company adopted this standard on

Table of Contents

January 1, 2020,2021, and the standard did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company does not have any material agreements that are within the scope of this ASU.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”, which requires customers in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2020, and the standard did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company’s cloud computing contracts are not material.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating “Step 2” from the goodwill impairment test. Instead of performing Step 2 to determine the amount of an impairment charge, the fair value of a reporting unit will be compared with its carrying amount and an impairment charge will be recognized for the value by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. For smaller reporting companies, ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard on April 1, 2020, and the standard did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company’s goodwill is not material.statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, to require financial assets carried at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasts. For smaller reporting companies, the ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted.

Basic net loss attributable to common stockholders per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period during which they were outstanding. Because the Company has reported a net loss for each period presented, diluted net loss per share of common stock is the same as basic net loss per sharesshare of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019. 2020.

5. Debt

3.625% Convertible Senior Notes Due in 2027

In February 2021, the Company issued $240.0 million in aggregate principal of 3.625% convertible senior notes due February 15, 2027 (the "Notes") through a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The debt issuance costs of $7.6 million were recorded as a debt discount and are being amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the Notes.

The Notes, governed by an indenture between the Company and a trustee, are senior, unsecured obligations and do not include financial and operating covenants nor any restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of securities by Kadmon or any of its subsidiaries. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears at a rate of 3.625% per annum on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The Notes will mature February 15, 2027 unless they are redeemed, repurchased or converted prior to such date. Before November 15, 2026, noteholders will have the right to convert their Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after November 15, 2026, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date.

Upon conversion, the Notes may be settled in shares of Kadmon common stock, cash or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 143.7815 shares of common stock per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $6.96 per share of common stock, or a premium of approximately 30% to the $5.35 per share closing price of the Company’s common stock on February 10, 2021, the date the Company priced the offering. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the applicable indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time.

17


Table of Contents

The Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at its option, on or after February 20, 2024 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least each of 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company provides written notice of redemption; and the trading day immediately before the notice is sent. In addition, calling any Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.

Holders of Notes may require the Company to repurchase their Notes upon the occurrence of certain events that constitute a fundamental change under the indenture governing the Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

Capped Call Transactions

Separately, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call options with financial institutions. The capped call options cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that initially underlie the Notes. The cap price of the capped call options is $10.70 per share, representing a premium of 100% above the closing price of $5.35 per share of the Company’s common stock on February 10, 2021, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call options. The capped call options, which have a final expiration date of February 11, 2027, are generally intended to reduce or offset potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the Notes with such reduction and/or offset, subject to a cap based on the cap price. The capped call transactions are separate transactions entered into by the Company, are not part of the terms of the Notes and will not change the holders’ rights under the Notes. Holders of the Notes will not have any rights with respect to the capped call options. The Company paid a total of $33.0 million in premiums for the capped call options,which was recorded as additional paid-in capital, using a portion of the gross proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Notes. The capped call options are excluded from diluted earnings per share because the impact would be anti-dilutive.

The Company is required to disclose information on all assets and liabilities reported at fair value that enables an assessment of the inputs used in determining the reported fair values. The fair value hierarchy defines three levels and prioritizes valuation inputs based on the observable nature of those inputs. The fair value hierarchy applies only to the valuation inputs used in determining the reported fair value of the investments and is not a measure of the investment credit quality.

Items classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy consist of the Company’s cash equivalents held in money market funds and its ownership of MeiraGTx (Note 8).MeiraGTx. The Company measures these investments at fair value determined based on Level 1 observable quoted price market inputs.

Items classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy consist of the Company’s marketable debt securities, warrant liabilities and warrant liabilities.convertible notes. The Company estimates the fair values of the marketable debt securities by taking into consideration valuations obtained from third-party pricing sources. These pricing sources utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market-based approaches, for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, to estimate fair value. These inputs include market pricing based on real-time trade data for the same or similar securities, issuer credit spreads, benchmark yields, and other observable inputs. The Level 2 inputs used to value the Company’s warrant liabilities were determined using prices that can be directly observed or corroborated in active markets.observed. Although the fair value of this obligation is calculated using the observable market price of the Company’s common stock, an active market for this financial instrument does not exist.

7. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (on a first-in, first-out basis) using standard costs. Standard costs include an allocation of overhead rates, which include those costs attributable to managing the supply chain and are evaluated regularly. Variances are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes inventory costs associated with the Company’s products after regulatory approval, if ever, when, based on management’s judgment, future commercialization is considered probable and the future economic benefit is expected to be realized; otherwise, such costs are expensed as research and development. On July 16, 2021, REZUROCK received FDA approval and all subsequent inventory costs associated with REZUROCK are being capitalized. Raw materials and work-in-process include all inventory costs prior to packaging and labelling, including raw material, active product ingredient, and drug product. Finished goods include packaged and labelled products. The inventory balance as of September 30, 2021 does not include $0.1 million of inventory on hand that was previously expensed as research & development cost prior to FDA approval.

The Company periodically analyzes its inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire prior to expected sale or has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value, and writes-down such inventories as appropriate. In addition, the Company’s product is subject to strict quality control and monitoring which the Company performs throughout the manufacturing process. If certain batches or units of product no longer meet quality specifications or the Company identifies excess, obsolete or unsalable inventory, its value is written down to net realizable value. Inventories recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets are net of a reserve for expirable inventory of $2.6 million and $3.0 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Pursuant to the sub-licensing arrangement, the Company was granted a worldwide, exclusive license agreement with Romeckunder certain intellectual property owned by SLx to three clinical-stage product candidates, including belumosudil, each of which were licensed by SLx to NTLS. NTLS is a research and Meiji in exchangedevelopment company, which independently maintains intellectual property for the purpose of pursuing medical discoveries. The Company is represented on the board of managers of NTLS and is a 50% interest in Romeck. Romeck is domiciled in Japan with shared oversight betweenparty to decisions which influence the Company and Meiji. Under the termsdirection of the license agreement, the Company received an upfront payment of $6.0 million in January 2020 and is eligible to receive an additional $23.0 million in development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments upon the occurrence of specified events over the term of the agreement. In addition, the Company is eligible to receive double-digit percentage royalty payments on sales of belumosudil (KD025) in Japan.organization.

The Company must pay to the previous shareholders of SLx from which Nano Terra acquired SLx, royalties on net sales in the amount of 5%. Additionally, after the 5% royalty has been paid, the Company must also pay royalties on the remaining net sales in the amount of 10% to NTLS. As the Company owns 50% of NTLS, the cumulative results of these obligations is that the Company will owe aggregate royalty payments totaling 9.75% on net sales of licensed products. The royalties will become due and recognizable at the time of sale and are payable to SLx and NTLS 45 calendar days after each quarter. All royalties paid to third parties are recorded as Cost of Sales in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. NTLS is required to distribute any royalties from belumosudil to the two parties (Kadmon and SLx) within 15 days of receipt as equity distributions.

Since inception, the Company has continuously assessed the applicability of FASB ASC 810, Consolidation“Consolidation”, to the aforementioned agreements and based on the corporate structure, voting rights and contributions of the various parties in connection with these agreements, determined that Romeck was a VIE, however consolidation was not required asagreements. The Company consolidates entities where the Company was nothas a direct or indirect controlling financial interest based on either a variable interest model or voting interest modeltity. As such, the Company will consolidate an entity that is concluded to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary based uponand any entity in which the Company holds a majority voting interest or has majority ownership and control over the operational, financial and investing decisions of that entity.

With the approval of REZUROCK, NTLS has started to operationalize its structure and there was no activity of the joint venture prior to August 2021. NTLS does not meet any of the criteria for VIE classification, however, NTLS is subject to consolidation by the Company under the voting and managerial structure of the entity. The purpose of the VIE is to develop and commercialize belumosudil in Japan and the operations of Romeck will be financed entirely by Meiji. The Company has not and is not required to provide financial support under the agreements and has no exposure to loss as a result of its involvement in the VIE. The Company’s investment in Romeck was accounted for under the equity methodinterest model as the Company has majority control over the ability to exercise significant influence over Romeck. The equity method investment was recorded at immaterial cost representing the Company’s initial capital contribution for its ownership. This value was determined based upon the corporate structure which does not allocate profits or losses to the Company. An adjustment to this recorded investment will only occur upon a sales transaction or liquidation event, as defined in the agreement.

operational, financial and investing decisions of NTLS. The Company evaluatedcontrols the arrangement under ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements,board of managers of NTLS and determined that the license agreement and related joint venture with Romeck is not within the scope of ASC 808, and that the license agreement represents a contract with a customer under ASC 606.any major operational decisions. The Company has determined that the license agreement containsrecorded a single combined performance obligation that consists of the exclusive license to Kadmon’s intellectual property and related initial technology transfer. All other promises includednoncontrolling interest in the license agreement were deemedactivity of NTLS based on its 50% ownership.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company accrued royalties of approximately $0.6 million to be immaterialSLx and approximately $1.2 million to NTLS related to net sales of REZUROCK. The royalties owed to SLx are recorded as accrued liabilities in the context of the contract including clinical supply, participation in a JSC, and limited technical assistance as requested by Romeck and Meiji.

The Company determined that the $6.0 million non-refundable, upfront payment under the license agreement constituted the entire consideration to be included in the transaction price at the inception of the arrangement. As such, this amount was allocated to the single performance obligation. The potential development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments and sales-based royalties that the Company is eligible to receive represent variable consideration under the license agreement. The development and regulatory milestone amounts were excluded from the transaction price and were fully constrained based on their probability of achievement and the fact that Company cannot reasonably conclude that a significant reversal of revenue related to these milestones would not occur. Any future sales-based royalties, including commercial milestone payments based on the level of sales, will be included in the transaction price and recognized as revenue when the related sales occur and the milestones are achieved. The Company will reevaluate the transaction price at the end of each reporting period as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur, and, if necessary, adjust its estimate of the transaction price.

The single combined performance obligation represents a license of functional intellectual property. The Company had not received the upfront payment or completed the single combined performance obligation as of December 31, 2019. The Company recognized $6.0 million in license revenue in the first quarter of 2020 upon completion of the initial technology transfer. No other milestone or royalty revenues have been earnedconsolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2020.2021. As NTLS is consolidated, the Company has eliminated the $1.2 million and recorded a noncontrolling interest of approximately $0.6 million related to 50% of the net income of NTLS related to the royalties.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company,” “Kadmon,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Kadmon Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and related notes appearing in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those in included in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (including in the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements”) and our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of small molecules and biologics to address significant unmet medical needs. Our clinical pipeline includes developmental treatments for immune and fibrotic diseases as well as immuno-oncology therapy candidates. We leverage our multi-disciplinary research and development team members to identify and pursue a diverse portfolio of novel product candidates, both through in-licensing products and employing our small molecule and biologics platforms. We believe that we have the ability to progress these candidates ourselves while maintaining flexibility for commercial and licensing arrangements. We expect to continue to progress our clinical candidates and have further clinical trial and regulatory events to report in the remainder of 2020 and in 2021.therapies.

The Company’s most advanced product candidate, belumosudil (KD025) is an orally administered, selective small molecule inhibitor of Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase 2 (“ROCK2”), a signaling pathway that modulates inflammatory response. The Company is initially developing belumosudil for the treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease (“cGVHD”), an immune-mediated inflammatory and fibrotic disorder. On September 30, 2020, the Company submitted a New Drug Application (“NDA”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for belumosudil for the treatment of patients with cGVHD. The NDA is subject to acceptance by the FDA. The NDA is being reviewed under the Real-Time Oncology Review (“RTOR”) pilot program, an initiative of the FDA's Oncology Center of Excellence (“OCE”). The RTOR program aims to explore a more efficient review process to ensure that safe and effective treatments are available to patients as early as possible.

The NDA submission is supported by positive data observed in ROCKstar (KD025-213), the Company’s pivotal clinical trial evaluating belumosudil in 132 patients with cGVHD who have received two or more prior lines of systemic therapy. As previously reported, belumosudil achieved clinically meaningful and statistically significant Overall Response Rates of 73% with 200 mg once daily and 74% with 200 mg twice daily. Responses were achieved across key patient subgroups and complete responses were observed in all organ systems. Belumosudil has been well tolerated and adverse events have been consistent with those expected in the patient population.

The FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation to belumosudil for the treatment of cGVHD, and the FDA has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to belumosudil for the treatment of patients with cGVHD after failure of two or more lines of systemic therapy.

The recent global pandemic caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus SARS-COV-2, which causes a disease that is referred to as coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”), may materially affect us economically. While the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may be difficult to assess or predict, this widespread pandemic has resulted in a significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce our ability to access capital. If the disruption to the financial markets is protracted, our liquidity could be negatively affected in the future. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock. During these uncertain times, the Company’s top priorities are to ensure the health and welfare of its employees, maintain product safety and continue to advance its clinical studies. However, our clinical trials have been impacted, and we may experience delays in anticipated timelines and milestones. For instance, due to interruptions at clinical sites, enrollment has been delayed in our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial of belumosudil in systemic sclerosis and enrollment was also delayed in our ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial of KD033 in patients with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors. In addition, we may experience disruptions in our supply chain, including our supply of our product candidates, which may adversely affect the conduct of our clinical trials. We rely on contract research organizations (“CROs”) to conduct our clinical trials. Our CROs may be unable to conduct clinical trials for product candidates as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic could impact our healthcare systems and our clinical trial sites’ ability to conduct trials to varied degrees and times. COVID-

19 creates risk of interrupting availability of necessary clinical supplies as well as local regulatory reviews, hospital ethics committee reviews and site monitors.

Our operations to date have been focused on developing first-in-class innovative therapies for indications with significant unmet medical needs while leveraging our commercial infrastructure. We believe that we have the ability to progress these candidates ourselves while maintaining flexibility for commercial and licensing arrangements. In addition to these discovery and development efforts, our business strategy includes the efficient commercialization of these drugs in the U.S. and certain other regions upon regulatory approval. By focusing on rare disease markets, we believe that we can more effectively control the costs of, and our strategic allocation of financial resources toward, post-approval commercialization.

Our revenues are difficult to predict and depend on several factors. For example, our revenues depend, in part, on regulatory approval decisions for our product and product candidates, the effectiveness of our and our collaborative partners’ commercialization efforts, market acceptance of our products, particularly REZUROCK™ (belumosudil), the resources dedicated to our products and product candidates by us and our collaborative partners, and our ability to enter into or modify licensing agreements for our product candidates. We have never been profitable and had an accumulated deficit of $415.7$538.1 million at September 30, 2020.2021.

AlthoughOur operating expenses are also difficult to predict and depend on several factors, including commercialization expenses, research and development expenses, drug manufacturing, and clinical research activities, the ongoing requirements of our commercial business generates revenue throughdevelopment programs and the saleavailability of CLOVIQUE™ (Trientine Hydrocholride), the revenues generatedcapital. As our commercialization activities for the threeREZUROCK and nine months ended September 30, 2020research and 2019 were not significant, anddevelopment programs continue to advance, we expect our operating costs will increase. Management may be able to incur significantcontrol the timing and level of research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses, but many of these expenditures will occur irrespective of our actions due to contractually committed activities and/or payments.

As a result of these factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons are not necessarily meaningful and you should not rely on them as an indication of future performance. The Company has sustained operating losses for the foreseeable futuremajority of its corporate history and expect thesethe Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows until revenues reach a level sufficient to increase as we continue our developmentsupport ongoing operations. Due to all of and seek regulatory approvals for, our additional product candidates, hire additional personnel and initiate commercialization of any products that receive regulatory approval. We anticipatethe foregoing factors, it is possible that our expensesoperating results will increase substantially if, orbe below the expectations of market analysts and investors. In such event, the prevailing market price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.

Components of Statement of OperationsCOVID-19 Update

The componentsongoing COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility in financial markets. While our financial condition, results of operations, cybersecurity and liquidity have not been materially impacted by the direct effects of the pandemic, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. We are continuing to monitor developments with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic and to make adjustments as needed to assist in protecting the safety of our statementemployees and communities while continuing our business activities.

We are continuing to monitor the potential impacts of COVID-19 on our operations are disclosedand those of our partners, suppliers, customers, and regulators, including commercial and clinical drug supply chain continuity and commercial launch of REZUROCK.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we cannot precisely predict the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have in the audited financial statements forfuture due to numerous uncertainties, including the year ended December 31, 2019severity of the disease and its variants, the duration of the pandemic, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, the impact to the business of potential variations or disruptions in our supply chain, and other factors identified in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filedfor the year ended December 31, 2020. We will continue to closely monitor and evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition.

REZUROCK (belumosudil)

REZUROCK is an oral tablet developed by Kadmon for the treatment of cGVHD. REZUROCK was approved by the FDA on March 5, 2020July 16, 2021 for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older with cGVHD after failure of at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. REZUROCK was made available in the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). SinceUnited States in August 2021.

We began generating revenue from sales of REZUROCK in the datethird quarter of such financial statements, there have been no significant changes2021. Revenue from sales of REZUROCK in future periods is subject to uncertainties and will depend on several factors, including the componentssuccess of our statementand our partners’ commercialization efforts in the U.S., the number of operations.new patients switching to REZUROCK, patient retention and demand, the number of physicians prescribing REZUROCK, the rate of monthly prescriptions, reimbursement from third-party payors, the conversion of patients from our clinical trials to commercial customers, and market trends. We will monitor and analyze this data during the initial launch period.

Financial Outlook for 2022

In the launch period for REZUROCK, expected to be through 2022, the Company is not providing specific revenue or operating guidance. Based on our expectations for revenue and operating expenses, we believe our current cash runway takes us into 2023.

Future Funding Requirements

We expectOur operations have principally been funded through the issuance of equity and debt securities. As our expenses to increase compared to prior periods in connection withcommercialization activities and our ongoing activities, particularly as we continueplanned research and development programs continue to advance, we expect our costs will increase. Furthermore, given the uncertain economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we will continue to monitor the nature and initiate clinical trials, seek regulatory approvals forextent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our product candidatesliquidity and advancecapital resources. As a result, our planned commercial launch efforts for belumosudil, if approved. In anticipation of regulatory approval for anymanagement will retain broad discretion over the allocation of our product candidates, we expect to incur significant pre-commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, distributionexisting cash, cash equivalents and manufacturing.marketable debt securities.

The expected use of our cash, and cash equivalents and marketable debt securities at September 30, 20202021 represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve. The amount and timingAdditional funding, whether through additional sales of equity or debt securities, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate partners or from other sources, may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us. Insufficient funds may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate certain of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors,research and development programs.

Our future working capital requirements, including the progressneed for additional working capital, will be largely determined by the advancement of our portfolio of product candidates and commercialization of REZUROCK. More specifically, our working capital requirements will be dependent on:

the timing, magnitude and scope of commercial spending and our development the status of, and results from, clinical trials, the potential need to conduct additional clinical trials to obtainprograms;

regulatory approval of our product candidates for all intended indications, as well as any additional collaborations that we may enter into with third partiescandidates;

the costs of obtaining patent protection for our product candidatescandidates;

the timing and any unforeseen cash needs. Our funding requirements may be affectedterms of business development activities;

the rate of technological advances relevant to our operations;

the efficiency of manufacturing processes developed on our behalf by the COVID-19 pandemic to the extent timelines for clinical trialsthird parties; and product approvals may be extended and access to capital may be reduced. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of our existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable debt securities. In addition, we anticipate the need to raise additional funds from the issuance of additional debt or equity securities and monetization of assets, and our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of those funds.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Evaluation of our Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officerChief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer,Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of September 30, 2020,2021, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officerCEO and principal financial officer,CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)Act). Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None.From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Please refer to Note 12 of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion related to our legal proceedings.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

 Although not requiredInvesting in our securities involves a high degree of risk. In addition to provide the other information required bycontained elsewhere in this Item,report, you should carefully consider the Company is supplementing and updating the risk factors discussed in its prior filings with the SEC, including those discussed under the heading “Item“Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors,”Factors” in the Company’sour most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with2020, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. These risks and uncertainties are not the SEC on March 5, 2020, withonly ones we face. You should recognize that other significant risks and uncertainties may arise in the following:

Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of health epidemics and pandemics, including the recent COVID-19 pandemic, in regions where we or third parties onfuture, which we rely have significant concentrations of clinical trial sitescannot foresee at this time. Also, the risks that we now foresee might affect us to a greater or different degree than expected. Certain risks and uncertainties, including ones that we currently deem immaterial or that are similar to those faced by other companies in our industry or business operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has impactedin general, may also affect our operations, including at our corporate headquarters in New York, commercial operations in Pennsylvania, clinical operations in Massachusetts, research facility in New Jersey and at our clinical trial sites, as well as the business or operations of our CROs or other third parties with whom we conduct business. If these impacts continue for an extended periodany of time,the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business could be adversely affected by health epidemicsThe risk factors described below update the risk factors disclosed in regions where we have clinical trial sites or other business operations and could cause significant disruption in the operations of CROs upon whom we rely. For example, in December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, causing a disease referred to as COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Since then, COVID-19 has spread to multiple countries, including the United States and several European countries. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. Further, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency. The Governors of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Massachusetts declared a state of emergency related to the spread of COVID-19, and issued orders directing all individuals, including where our headquarters is located, to “stay at home” except to perform certain essential activities. The orders took effect in March 2020. We have temporarily implemented work-from-home policies for all employees. The impacts of the state orders and our work-from-home policies have impacted productivity in certain business units, impacted management attention, depleted resources, disrupted our business and delayed our clinical programs and timelines, the magnitude of which will depend, in part, on the length and severity of the restrictions and other limitations on our ability to conduct our business in the ordinary course. These and similar disruptionsPart I, Item 1A. in our operations could materially2020 10-K to include additional information, and adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, our clinical trials mayshould be affected byread in conjunction with the COVID-19 pandemic. Clinical site initiation and patient enrollment may be delayed due to prioritization of hospital resources toward the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, due to interruptions at clinical sites, enrollment has been delayedrisk factors in our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial of belumosudil (KD025) in systemic sclerosis and enrollment was also delayed in our ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial of KD033 in patients with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors. Also, some patients may not be able to comply with clinical trial protocols if quarantine impedes patient movement or interrupt healthcare services. Similarly, our ability to recruit and retain patients and principal investigators and site staff who, as healthcare providers, may have heightened exposure to COVID-19 and adversely impact our clinical trial operations. The COVID-19 pandemic may materially affect us economically. While the economic impact brought by, and the duration of, COVID-19 may be difficult to assess or predict, the widespread pandemic has resulted in significant disruption of global financial markets, potentially reducing our ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic may also exacerbate other risks discussed in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, any of which could have a material effect on us. This situation is changing rapidly and additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently.2020.

Our business could be adversely affectedIf the Merger contemplated by the cyber, privacy and productivity effects of remote working and disruption at management and board levels due to COVID-19.

We have transitioned all of our employee population to a remote work environment in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, which may exacerbate certain risks to our business, including an increased demand for information technology resources, increased risk of phishing and other cybersecurity attacks, and increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information about us or our members or other third-parties. We may experience disruptions to our business operations resulting from quarantines, self-isolations, or other movement and restrictions on the ability of our employees to perform their jobs that may impact our ability to progress our clinical candidates in a timely manner or meet development milestones. The COVID-19 pandemic could also disrupt our operations due to absenteeism by infected or ill members of management or other employees, or absenteeism by members of

management and other employees who electMerger Agreement does not to come to work due to the illness affecting others in our office or laboratory facilities, or due to quarantines. COVID-19 illness could also impact members of our Board of Directors resulting in absenteeism from meetings of the directors or committees of directors, and makingoccur, it more difficult to convene the quorums of the full Board of Directors or its committees needed to conduct meetings for the management of our affairs.

We may not be entitled to forgiveness of our recently received Loan under the Paycheck Protection Program of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, and our application for the Paycheck Protection Program Loan could in the future be determined to have been impermissible or could damage our reputation.

On April 14, 2020 we received proceeds of $3.1 million from a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP Loan”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which we intend to use to retain current employees, maintain payroll and make lease and utility payments. The PPP Loan matures on April 15, 2022 and bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum. On August 20, 2020, the loan was amended so that, commencing August 15, 2021, the Company is required to pay the lender equal monthly payments of principal and interest as required to fully amortize by April 15, 2022 the principal amount outstanding on the PPP Loan as of October 15, 2020. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, covered mortgage interest and covered utilities during the eight-week period beginning on the date of loan approval. We will be required to repay any portion of the outstanding principal that is not forgiven, along with accrued interest. While we have begun preparations to apply for forgiveness, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be eligible for loan forgiveness, or that any amount of the PPP Loan will ultimately be forgiven by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). Furthermore, on April 28, 2020, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Treasury stated that the SBA will perform a full review of any PPP loan over $2.0 million before forgiving the loan. In order to apply for the PPP Loan, we were required to certify, among other things, that the current economic uncertainty made the PPP Loan request necessary to support our ongoing operations. We made this certification in good faith after analyzing, among other things, the maintenance of our entire workforce, notwithstanding certain obvious “work-from-home” limitations associated with the nature of our business and managing risks to our development programs. In considering our position, the Company, an emerging growth clinical-stage biopharmaceutical research and development company with approximately 120 employees (including 27 research staff ordinarily located within the Company’s laboratories), currently conducting 6 clinical trials to develop at least 3 medicines for currently unmet and under-served medical needs, took into account our classification as a smaller reporting Company under SEC rules, our ability to currently access alternative forms of capital in the current market environment, and that management expressed substantial doubt as described in Note 1 of the financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 5, 2020 about our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our recurring and continuing losses from operations and our need for additional funding to continue operations. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm BDO USA, LLP also included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Following this analysis, we believe that we satisfied all eligibility criteria for the PPP Loan, and that our receipt of the PPP Loan is consistent with the broad objectives of the PPP of the CARES Act, and following receipt of the loan, we have made no COVID-19 layoffs. The certification described above did not contain any objective criteria and is subject to interpretation. We will continue to assess our continued qualification if and when updated guidance is released by the Treasury Department. If, despite our good-faith belief that given our circumstances we satisfied all eligible requirements for the PPP Loan, we are later determined to have violated any applicable laws or regulations or it is otherwise determined that we were ineligible to receive the PPP Loan, we may be required to repay the PPP Loan in its entirety and/or be subject to additional penalties, which could also result in adverse publicity and damage to reputation. In addition, our receipt of the PPP Loan may result in adverse publicity and damage to our reputation, and a review or audit by the SBA or other government entity or claims under the False Claims Act could consume significant financial and management resources. If these events were to transpire, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and stock price.

On September 7, 2021, we entered into the Merger Agreement with Sanofi. Completion of the proposed Merger is subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, including the receipt of approvals from our stockholders and from government or regulatory agencies. There is no assurance that all of the various conditions will be satisfied, or that the Merger will be completed on the proposed terms, within the expected timeframe, or at all. The proposed Merger gives rise to inherent risks that include:

the amount of the cash to be paid under the Merger agreement is fixed and will not be adjusted for changes in our business, assets, liabilities, prospects, outlook, financial condition.condition or results of operations or in the event of any change in the market price of, analyst estimates of, or projections relating to, our common stock;

legal or regulatory proceedings, including regulatory approvals from governmental entities (including any conditions, limitations or restrictions placed on these approvals) and the risk that one or more governmental entities may delay or deny approval, or other matters that affect the timing or ability to complete the transaction as contemplated;

the ability of Sanofi to obtain the necessary funds to complete the Merger;

the possibility of disruption to our business, including increased costs and diversion of management time and resources;

difficulties maintaining business and operational relationships, including relationships with clients, vendors, suppliers, distributors, resellers and other business partners;

the inability to attract and retain key personnel pending consummation of the proposed Merger;

potential stockholder litigation relating to the Merger could prevent or delay the Merger or otherwise negatively impact our business and operations;

the inability to pursue alternative business opportunities or make changes to our business pending the completion of the proposed Merger;

the requirement to pay a termination fee of $60.125 million if we terminate the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances;

developments beyond our control including, but not limited to, changes in domestic or global economic conditions that may affect the timing or success of the proposed Merger; and

the risk that if the proposed Merger is not completed, the market price of our common stock could decline, investor confidence could decline, stockholder litigation could be brought against us, relationships with clients, suppliers and other business partners may be adversely impacted, we may be unable to retain key personnel, and profitability may be adversely impacted due to costs incurred in connection with the proposed Merger.

ReviewThe announcement and pendency of our NDA for belumosudil underagreement to be acquired by Sanofi could adversely affect our business.

Uncertainty about the FDA's RTOR pilot programeffect of the proposed acquisition on our customers, employees, partners and other parties may not leadadversely affect our business. Our employees may experience uncertainty about their roles or seniority following the acquisition. There can be no assurance that our employees, including key personnel, can be retained, or that we will be able to a faster regulatory reviewattract and retain employees to the same extent that we have previously been able to. Any loss or approval,distraction of such employees could adversely affect our business and operations. In addition, we have diverted, and will continue to divert, significant management resources toward the completion of the acquisition, which could adversely affect our business and operations. Parties with which we do not increasebusiness may experience uncertainty associated with the likelihood that belumosudil will obtain marketing approval.acquisition, including with respect to current or future business relationships with us. Uncertainty may cause customers to refrain from doing business with us, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and stock price.

The FDAfailure to complete the acquisition by Sanofi could adversely affect our business.

Consummation of the acquisition by Sanofi is subject to several conditions beyond our control that may prevent, delay, or otherwise adversely affect its completion, including our need to obtain stockholder approval of the acquisition. If any of these conditions are not satisfied or waived, it is possible that the acquisition will not be consummated in the expected time frame (or at all) or that the definitive agreement may be terminated. If the proposed acquisition is not completed, the share price of our common stock may decrease to the extent that the current market price of our common stock reflects an assumption that a transaction will be completed. In addition, under circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $60.125 million to Sanofi. Further, a failed transaction may result in negative publicity and a negative impression of us in the investment community. Any disruption to our business resulting from the announcement and pendency of the transaction and from intensifying competition from our competitors, including any adverse changes in our relationships with our customers, employees, partners and other regulatory bodies periodically introduce pilot programs withparties, could continue or accelerate in the goalevent of a failed transaction. There can be no assurance that our business, relationships with other parties, liquidity or financial condition will not be adversely affected, as compared to the condition prior to the announcement of the acquisition, if the acquisition is not consummated.

The Merger Agreement limits our ability to pursue alternatives to the acquisition.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that make it more efficient reviewdifficult for us to enter into alternative transactions. The Merger Agreement contains certain provisions that restrict our ability to, among other things, solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate the submission of applications, includinginquiries, proposals or offers relating to or that would reasonably be expected to lead to any acquisition proposal from a third party. The Merger Agreement also provides that our board of directors will not change its recommendation that our stockholders adopt the FDA OCE's RTOR pilot program, which is currently being tested by the FDA. The RTOR pilot program allows the FDAMerger Agreement and will not approve any agreement with respect to review data before the applicant formally submits its completed application, aimingan acquisition proposal, subject to explore a more efficient review process.limited exceptions.

In September 2020,addition, upon adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders, our right to terminate the Merger Agreement in response to a superior proposal will be eliminated. While we submittedbelieve these provisions are reasonable, customary and not preclusive of other offers, the provisions might discourage a NDAthird party that has an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of us from considering or proposing such acquisition, even if such party were prepared to pay consideration with a higher per-share value than the currently proposed merger consideration. Furthermore, the requirement to pay a termination fee under certain circumstances may result in a third party proposing to pay a lower per-share price to acquire us than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee that may become payable by us in certain circumstances.

Litigation has and may arise in connection with the acquisition by Sanofi, which could be costly, prevent consummation of the acquisition, divert management’s attention and otherwise materially harm our business.

In October 2021, ten alleged stockholders of the Company filed actions in federal courts located in the states of New York, Delaware, and Pennsylvania against the Company and the members of its Board of Directors, which claims generally allege that the Company and its Board of Directors failed to disclose allegedly material information in the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the SEC on October 4, 2021 related to the FDA for belumosudil for the treatment of patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD)after failure of two or more lines of systemic therapy.Merger. The NDA remains subject to acceptance by the FDA. Acceptance by the FDA marks the commencementcase is still pending. See Note 14 of the FDA’s formal review process, and the initiationnotes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion related to our legal proceedings . Regardless of the regulatory deadlines underoutcome of this or any future litigation related to the Prescription Drug User Fee Act. The NDA is being reviewed under the RTOR pilot program.

Although the RTOR pilot program and other designations we may receive or programs we may participate in, are intended to expedite the review and approval of product candidates, they do not ensure that marketing approval will be granted in a particular timeframe, or at all. The FDA and other regulatory authorities have broad discretion whether or not to grant designations for expedited review or include product candidates within various programs, and, even if we or our partners believe a particular product candidate is eligible for these designations or programs, we cannot assure you thatacquisition by Sanofi, such authority would agree. Even if we or our partners receive such designations or our product candidates are eligible for inclusion in expedited review programs in the future, we may not experience a faster development, review, or approval process compared to conventional procedures. Furthermore, these designations and programs do not change the scientific and medical standard for approval or the quality of evidence necessary to support approval. As a result, applications for product candidates granted priority review or other expedited review designations or subject to these various programslitigation may be denied based on study data, study design,time-consuming and expensive and may distract our management from running the day-to-day operations of our business. The litigation costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources to address the claims and counterclaims in any litigation related to the acquisition by Sanofi may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Further, if the acquisition is not consummated for any reason, litigation could be filed in connection with the failure to consummate the acquisition. Any litigation related to the acquisition may result in negative publicity or other factors.an unfavorable impression of us, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock, impair our ability to recruit or retain employees, damage our relationships with our customers and suppliers, or otherwise materially harm our operations and financial performance.
