Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and follow the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP can be condensed or omitted. In management’s opinion, the unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and its results of operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. These statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 , which are contained in the Company’s Current Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 7, 2024. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any other interim period. Significant Accounting Policies A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in the audited consolidated financial statements within its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Except as noted below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024 . Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company maintains deposits in federally insured financial institutions and such deposits are in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant risk on its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Viracta uses third party contract laboratories and facilities for the manufacture and testing of drug substance, drug product, and clinical trial material while providing internal oversight on technical development, quality and regulatory compliance. This outsourcing model allows Viracta to maintain a flexible infrastructure and capital efficiency while focusing its expertise on developing its products. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 , the Company had two contract laboratories that provided 41.9 % and one contract laboratory that provided 10.9 % of total third-party services, r espectively . Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Fair Value Measurements The Company invests in available-for-sale securities consisting of money market funds, commercial paper, corporate debt securities, U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. agency bonds. Available-for-sale securities are classified as either cash, cash equivalents or short-term investments on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following tables summarize, by major security type, the Company's cash equivalents and short-term investments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, in thousands: March 31, 2024 Maturities Amortized Cost Unrealized Gains Unrealized Losses Fair Value Cash equivalents: Money market funds 1 or less $ 9,839 $ — $ — $ 9,839 Total cash equivalents 9,839 — — 9,839 Short-term investments: U.S. Treasury securities 1 or less 8,254 — ( 2 ) 8,252 Commercial paper 1 or less 13,087 — ( 1 ) 13,086 Corporate debt securities 2 or less 3,378 1 — 3,379 U.S. Agency bonds 1 or less 2,791 — ( 4 ) 2,787 Total short-term investments 27,510 1 ( 7 ) 27,504 Total $ 37,349 $ 1 $ ( 7 ) $ 37,343 December 31, 2023 Maturities Amortized Cost Unrealized Gains Unrealized Losses Fair Value Cash equivalents: Money market funds 1 or less $ 9,535 $ — $ — $ 9,535 Commercial paper 1 or less 499 499 Total cash equivalents 10,034 — — 10,034 Short-term investments: U.S. Treasury securities 2 or less 11,371 8 — 11,379 Commercial paper 1 or less 14,931 10 — 14,941 Corporate debt securities 2 or less 3,796 4 — 3,800 U.S. Agency bonds 1 or less 11,267 — ( 13 ) 11,254 Total short-term investments 41,365 22 ( 13 ) 41,374 Total $ 51,399 $ 22 $ ( 13 ) $ 51,408 The Company has classified investments with remaining maturity at purchase of more than three months and remaining maturities of one year or less as short-term investments. The Company has also classified investments with remaining maturities of greater than one year as short-term investments, which reflects management's intention to use the proceeds from sales of these securities to fund operations, as necessary. As of March 31, 2024, the unrealized losses for available-for-sale investments were primarily due to changes in interest rates and not due to increased credit risks associated with specific securities. The Company does not currently intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at the time of maturity. As of March 31, 2024, no allowance for credit losses was recorded and the Company did not recognize any impairment losses related to investments. None of the short-term investments were in a continuous unrealized loss position for a period greater than 12 months as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale securities was $ 0.1 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 . We have no t written off any accrued interest receivables for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The fair value of financial instruments is classified into one of the following categories based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets. Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values for these financial instruments due to their short maturities. Below is a summary of assets, including cash equivalents and short-term investments, measured at fair value as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, in thousands. Fair Value Measurements Using March 31, 2024 Level 1 Level 2 Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 9,839 $ 9,839 $ — Total cash equivalents 9,839 9,839 — Short-term investments: U.S. Treasury securities 8,252 8,252 — Commercial paper 13,086 — 13,086 Corporate debt securities 3,379 — 3,379 U.S. Agency bonds 2,787 — 2,787 Total short-term investments 27,504 8,252 19,252 Total $ 37,343 $ 18,091 $ 19,252 Fair Value Measurements Using December 31, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 9,535 $ 9,535 $ — Commercial paper 499 — 499 Total cash equivalents 10,034 9,535 499 Short-term investments: U.S. Treasury securities 11,379 11,379 — Commercial paper 14,941 — 14,941 Corporate debt securities 3,800 — 3,800 U.S. Agency bonds 11,254 — 11,254 Total short-term investments 41,374 11,379 29,995 Total $ 51,408 $ 20,914 $ 30,494 The Company had no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis a s of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 . Net Loss Per Share Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and warrants to purchase common stock for nominal consideration outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the impact of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from outstanding common stock equivalents. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to compute basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company's net loss position. The following common stock equivalent securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive: March 31, 2024 2023 Shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock 292,799 292,799 Common stock options and RSUs outstanding 11,606,919 9,560,329 ESPP shares pending issuance 84,807 37,619 Warrants to purchase common stock 23,100 23,100 Total excluded securities 12,007,625 9,913,847 Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The ASU amendments are intended to improve reportable segment disclosure, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024.
