Nature of business and basis of presentation | |
Nature of business and basis of presentation | 1. Nature of business and basis of Mersana Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Company is focused on developing antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) that offer a clinically meaningful benefit for cancer patients with significant unmet need. The Company has leveraged over 20 years of industry learning in the ADC field to develop proprietary technologies that enable it to design ADCs to have improved efficacy, safety and tolerability relative to existing ADC therapies. The Company’s novel platform, Dolaflexin, has been used to generate proprietary ADC product candidates to address patient populations that are not currently amenable to treatment with traditional ADC‑based therapies. The Company’s lead product candidate, XMT‑1536, is a first-in-class, wholly-owned Dolaflexin ADC targeting NaPi2b, an antigen broadly expressed in ovarian cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) adenocarcinoma. The first patient was dosed on XMT‑1536 in late 2017 and the study is currently in Phase 1 dose escalation in ovarian cancer, NSCLC adenocarcinoma and rare cancers potentially expressing NaPi2b. In January 2019, following a strategic evaluation by the Company of the competitive environment for HER2-targeted therapies, the Company and its former partner, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, or Takeda, discontinued the development of XMT-1522, which was then being studied in the dose escalation of a Phase 1 clinical trial. The Company’s collaboration agreements with Takeda were terminated during the first quarter of 2019. The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the biotechnology industry, including but not limited to, the need for additional capital, risks of failure of preclinical studies and clinical trials, the need to obtain marketing approval and reimbursement for any drug product candidate that it may identify and develop, the need to successfully commercialize and gain market acceptance of its product candidates, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, development of technological innovations by competitors, reliance on third party manufacturers and the ability to transition from pilot-scale production to large-scale manufacturing of products. The Company has incurred cumulative net losses since inception. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized deferred revenue of $39,965 as a result of the above-mentioned discontinuation of the partnership with Takeda, resulting in net income of $4,830 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company did not recognize any revenue related to the Takeda agreements in the second quarter and will not have any further revenue related to these agreements. Cash used in operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was $14,197 and $38,884, respectively. The Company’s net loss was $64,257 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 159,336 . The future success of the Company is dependent on its ability to identify and develop its product candidates, and ultimately upon its ability to attain profitable operations. The Company has devoted substantially all of its financial resources and efforts to research and development and general and administrative expense to support such research and development. The Company’s net losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. Net losses and negative operating cash flows have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on the Company’s stockholders' equity and working capital. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2019, will enable it to fund its operating plan through at least mid-2021. Management’s belief with respect to its ability to fund operations is based on estimates that are subject to risks and uncertainties. If actual results are different from management’s estimates, the Company may need to seek additional funding. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative United States generally accepted accounting principles as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on March 8, 2019. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2019, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, a statement of stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature, other than the adjustments associated with the adoption of ASC 842, Leases (ASC 842). The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2019, or for any future period. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the requirements of ASC 842 using the modified retrospective method as discussed below in Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include those of the Company and its subsidiary, Mersana Securities Corp. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company’s management evaluates its estimates, which include, but are not limited to, management’s judgments with respect to the performance obligations and estimated selling prices within its revenue arrangements, accrued expenses, valuation of stock-based awards and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company operates and manages its business as a single operating segment, which is the business of discovering and developing ADCs. Summary of Accounting Policies The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as noted below with respect to the Company’s lease accounting policies and as disclosed within the “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” section below. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants at measurement dates. ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820) establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for instruments measured at fair value. The hierarchy is based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1—Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2—Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity, or a remaining maturity at the time of purchase, of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company invests excess cash primarily in money market funds, commercial paper and government agency securities, which are highly liquid and have strong credit ratings. These investments are subject to minimal credit and market risks. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. The following amounts were presented as cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash: Six months ended Six months ended June 30, 2019 June 30, 2018 Beginning End Beginning End of period of period of period of period Cash and cash equivalents $ 59,634 $ 116,206 $ 26,591 $ 51,142 Restricted cash included in other assets, noncurrent 371 371 371 371 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash per statement of cash flows $ 60,005 $ 116,577 $ 26,962 $ 51,513 Marketable Securities Short-term marketable securities consist of investments with maturities greater than three months and less than one year from the balance sheet date. Long-term marketable securities consist of investments with maturities greater than one year that are not expected to be used to fund current operations. The Company classifies all of its marketable securities as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value. Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums are recorded as interest income within other income. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities are included in other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary are included as a component of other income (expense), net, based on the specific identification method. When determining whether a decline in value is other than temporary, the Company considers various factors, including whether the Company has the intent to sell the security, and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis. Fair value is determined based on quoted market prices. Other Assets The Company recorded other assets of $1,503 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, comprised of restricted cash of $371 held as security deposits for a standby letter of credit and $1,132 held by a service provider. Leases Consistent with ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in right-of-use lease assets (ROU assets), current portion of lease obligations and long-term lease obligations on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Assets subject to finance leases are included in property and equipment, and the related lease obligation is included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Lease assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in operations. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense while expense for financing leases is recognized as depreciation expense and interest expense using the effective interest method. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for short-term leases, which allows the Company to not recognize lease liabilities and ROU assets on the consolidated balance sheets for leases with an original term of twelve months or less. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating ROU assets and obligations are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU lease asset also includes lease payments made and lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842), which replaced the guidance in ASC 840, Leases . The updated standard aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. This standard is effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted in ASC Topic 842. Accordingly, the Company accounted for its existing operating leases as operating leases under the new guidance, without reassessing (a) whether the contracts contain a lease under ASC Topic 842, (b) whether classification of the operating leases would be different in accordance with ASC Topic 842, or (c) whether the unamortized initial direct costs would have met the definition of initial direct costs in ASC Topic 842 at lease commencement. The Company also elected not to include leases with an initial term of twelve months or less in the recognized ROU asset and lease liabilities. As a result of the adoption of the new lease accounting guidance, the Company recognized on January 1, 2019 (a) an operating lease liability of $4,778, and (b) an operating ROU asset of $4,369 which represents the lease liability of $4,778 adjusted for deferred rent of $409. This standard had a material impact on the Company’s balance sheets but had no impact on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows from operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease obligations for operating leases. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This guidance simplifies the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance per ASU 2018-07 is to be adopted by using a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard at the date of initial application. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s 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 . The main provisions of ASU 2018-18 include: (i) clarifying that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account and (ii) precluding the presentation of transactions with collaborative arrangement participants that are not directly related to sales to third parties together with revenue. This guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance per ASU 2018-18 is to be adopted retrospectively to the date of initial application of Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that ASU No. 2018-18 may have on its financial position and results of operations. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Currently, U.S. GAAP delays recognition of the full amount of credit losses until the loss is probable of occurring. Under this ASU, the income statement will reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses will be based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct write-down of the security. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that ASU 2016-13 may have on its financial position and results of operations. |

Collaboration agreements | 3. Collaboration agreements Merck KGaA In June 2014, the Company entered into a Collaboration and Commercial License Agreement with Merck KGaA (the Merck KGaA Agreement). Upon the execution of the agreement, Merck KGaA paid the Company a nonrefundable technology access fee of $12,000 for the right to develop ADCs directed to six exclusive targets over a specified period of time. No additional fees are due when a target is designated and the commercial license to the target is granted. Merck KGaA will be responsible for the product development and marketing of any products resulting from this collaboration. All six targets were designated prior to 2018. The Company is eligible to receive milestones under the Merck KGaA Agreement. The next potential milestone payment is a development milestone of $500 on Merck KGaA’s designation of a preclinical development candidate for any target. Revenue for the milestone is fully constrained until it is certain the milestone would be achieved. Under the terms of the Merck KGaA Agreement, the Company and Merck KGaA develop research plans to evaluate Merck KGaA's antibodies as ADCs incorporating the Company's technology. The Company receives fees for its efforts under the research plans. The goal of the research plans is to provide Merck KGaA with sufficient information to formally nominate a development candidate and begin IND-enabling studies or cease development on the designated target. In May 2018, the Company entered into a Supply Agreement with Merck KGaA (the Merck KGaA Supply Agreement). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will provide Merck KGaA with materials that could be used for IND-enabling studies and clinical trials. The Company receives fees and reimbursement for its efforts under the Merck KGaA Supply Agreement. Accounting Analysis The Company identified the following performance obligations under the agreement: (i) exclusive license and research services for six designated targets, (ii) rights to future technological improvements and (iii) participation of project team leaders and providing joint research committee services. The Company recognizes revenue related to the exclusive license and the research and development services over the estimated period of the research and development services using a proportional performance model. The Company measures proportional performance based on the costs incurred relative to the total costs expected to be incurred as the Company will satisfy the performance obligations as the research and development services are performed. To the extent that the Company receives fees for the research and development services as they are performed, these amounts are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue related to future technological improvements and joint research committee services will be recognized ratably over the respective performance periods (which in the case of the joint research committee services approximates the time and cost incurred each quarter), which are 10 and five years, respectively. The Company continues to reassess the estimated remaining term at each subsequent reporting period. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded collaboration revenue of $18, $612, $36 and $944, respectively, related to its efforts under the Merck KGaA Agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized collaboration revenue and corresponding research and development expense of $184 and $1,221, respectively, related to the Merck KGaA Supply Agreement. Included in accounts receivable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $262 and $450, respectively, related to the Merck KGaA Supply Agreement. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $5,481 in deferred revenue related to the Merck KGaA Agreement and Merck KGaA Supply Agreement that will be recognized in accordance with the proportional performance method. Takeda XMT-1522 Strategic Partnership In January 2016, the Company entered into a Development Collaboration and Commercial License Agreement with Takeda through its wholly owned subsidiary, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for the development and commercialization of XMT-1522 (the XMT-1522 Agreement). Under the XMT-1522 Agreement, Takeda was granted the exclusive right to commercialize XMT-1522 outside of the United States and Canada. Under the XMT-1522 Agreement, the Company was responsible for conducting certain Phase 1 development activities for XMT-1522, including the ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial, at its own expense. The parties agreed to collaborate on the further development of XMT-1522 in accordance with a global development plan (Post-Phase 1 Development). On January 2, 2019, the Company received notice from Takeda stating that Takeda was exercising its right to terminate the XMT-1522 Agreement upon 30 days’ prior written notice. The XMT-1522 Agreement terminated in accordance with its provisions, and the Company and Takeda wound down activities related to the XMT-1522 Agreement as of March 31, 2019. Under the XMT-1522 Agreement, the Company and Takeda shared equally all Post-Phase 1 Development costs through the date of termination and for a period of 30 days after the effective termination date. For the applicable period within the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company was billed $200 by Takeda, representing the Company’s share of Post-Phase 1 Development costs incurred by Takeda. This amount has been reflected as research and development costs in the consolidated statement of operations. Takeda strategic research and development partnership In March 2014, the Company entered into a Research Collaboration and Commercial License Agreement with Takeda through Takeda’s wholly owned subsidiary, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the 2014 Agreement). The 2014 Agreement was amended in January 2015 and amended and restated in January 2016 (the 2016 Restated Agreement). The agreements provided Takeda with the right to develop ADCs directed to a total of seven exclusive targets, designated by Takeda, over a specified period of time. On January 2, 2019, the Company received notice from Takeda stating that Takeda was exercising its right to terminate the 2016 Restated Agreement upon 45 days’ prior written notice. The 2016 Restated Agreement terminated in accordance with its provisions, and the Company and Takeda wound down activities related to the 2016 Restated Agreement as of March 31, 2019. During the applicable period within the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company billed Takeda $195 related to ASC 808 costs. Accounting Analysis The Company concluded that the termination of the XMT-1522 Agreement and the 2016 Restated Agreement resulted in the completion of all of its remaining performance obligations. As a result, $39,965 of previously deferred revenue related to the Takeda agreements as of December 31, 2018 was recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company did not recognize any revenue related to the XMT-1522 Agreement or the 2016 Restated Agreement in the second quarter and will not have any further revenue related to these agreements. Included in accounts receivable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $26 and $9, respectively, related to the Takeda agreements. Included in accounts payable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $2,754 and $2,749, respectively, related to the Takeda agreements.

Debt | 7. Debt On May 8, 2019, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the Credit Facility) with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) pursuant to which the Company can borrow, at its option, up to $20,000, in up to four principal advances of at least $5,000 each (each, a Term Loan or collectively, the Term Loans) through August 31, 2020. The Company drew $5,000 on the Term Loan upon execution of the Credit Facility. The Term Loans bear interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) 4.0% and (ii) 1.50% below the Prime Rate, as defined. The Company is obligated to make monthly interest only payments on each outstanding Term Loan commencing on the first calendar day of the month following the funding date of such Term Loan and continuing on the first calendar day of each month thereafter through August 31, 2020. Commencing on September 1, 2020 and continuing on the first calendar day of each month thereafter, the Company is obligated to make 30 consecutive equal payments of principal, together with applicable interest in arrears to SVB. All outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Term Loans are due and payable in full on February 1, 2023. Upon repayment of the Term Loans, the Company is also required to make a final payment to SVB equal to 5.0% of the principal amount of the Term Loans then extended to the Company. This final payment is accreted under the effective interest method over the life of each loan. The Term Loans are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, except for its intellectual property which is subject to a negative pledge, and certain other customary exclusions. At the Company’s option, it may prepay the outstanding principal balance of any Term Loans in whole but not in part, subject to a prepayment fee of: (a) 3.0% of the Term Loans then extended to the Company if the prepayment occurs on or prior to May 8, 2020, (b) 2.0% of the Term Loans then extended to the Company if the prepayment occurs after May 8, 2020 but on or prior to May 8, 2021, or (c) 1.0% of the Term Loans then extended to the Company if the prepayment occurs after May 8, 2021 but before February 1, 2023. In the event the Company has not borrowed a total of $20,000 upon the earlier of August 21, 2020, acceleration of the Company’s payment obligations or Company’s prepayment of the then extended Term Loans, the Company is required to pay an additional fee in equal to 3.0% of any unborrowed portion of the committed funding (the Unused Term Loan Commitment Fee). The Credit Facility includes customary affirmative, financial, and restrictive covenants applicable to the Company. Affirmative covenants include, among others, covenants requiring the Company to maintain its corporate existence and governmental approvals, deliver certain financial reports, maintain insurance coverage and satisfy certain requirements regarding deposit accounts. Financial covenants include maintaining a liquidity ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) of 1.50 to 1.00. The restrictive covenants include, among others, requirements relating to the Company’s ability to transfer collateral, incur additional indebtedness, engage in mergers or acquisitions, pay dividends or make other distributions, make investments, create liens, sell assets and agree to a change in control, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions. The Company’s payment obligations under the Credit Facility are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of specified events of default, which include, but are not limited to, the occurrence of a material adverse change in the Company’s business, operations, or financial or other condition. Amounts outstanding upon the occurrence of an event of default are payable upon SVB’s demand and shall accrue interest at an additional rate of 5.0% per annum of the past due amount outstanding. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility. As such, as of June 30, 2019, the classification of the loan balance was long-term based on the timing of payment obligations. The Company incurred $215 of debt issuance costs related to external legal and transaction fees. The Company recorded the debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the Term Loans which are amortized as interest expense using the effective-interest method over the term of the Term Loans. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had drawn a Term Loan of $5,000. As of June 30, 2019, Debt consisted of the following: June 30, 2019 Total debt $ 5,000 Debt financing costs, net of accretion (206) Accretion related to final payment 11 Long-term debt, net $ 4,805 As of June 30, 2019, the estimated future principal payments due are as follows: 2019 (excluding the six months ended June 30, 2019) $ — 2020 666 2021 2,000 2022 2,000 2023 334 Total debt $ 5,000 During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized $13 of interest expense related to the Credit Facility. |

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, diluted earnings per share was computed using the "treasury method" by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of shares of common stock were adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of the exercise of stock options and warrants to purchase common stock. Anti-dilutive stock-based awards excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were 2,860,328. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and the six months ended June 30, 2018, potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive, therefore basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and the six months ended June 30, 2018. |

Stock options | 10. Stock options Stock option plans In June 2017 the Company’s shareholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2017 Plan). Under the 2017 Plan, up to 2,255,000 shares of common stock may be granted to the Company's employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors in the form of options, restricted stock awards or other stock-based awards. The 2017 Plan provides that the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2017 Plan shall be increased annually by 4% of the outstanding shares or such lesser amount specified by the Board. The terms of the awards are determined by the Board, subject to the provisions of the 2017 Plan. As of the adoption date of the 2017 Plan, there were 3,141,625 options outstanding under the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2007 Plan) (the 2007 Plan and the 2017 Plan collectively are referred to as the Plans). Any cancellations under the 2007 Plan would increase the number of shares that could be granted under the 2017 Plan. In January 2019, the number of shares of common stock issuable under the Plan was increased by 929,378 shares. As of June 30, 2019, there were 2,152,015 shares available for future issuance under the 2017 Plan. With respect to incentive stock options, the option price per share will equal the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Board, and the vesting period is generally four years. Nonqualified stock options will be granted at an exercise price established by the Board at its sole discretion (which has not been less than fair market value on the date of grant) and the vesting periods may vary. Options granted under the 2017 Plan expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. The Board may accelerate vesting or extend the expiration of granted options in the case of a merger, consolidation, dissolution, or liquidation of the Company. A summary of the activity under the Plans is as follows: Weighted- Remaining Number Average Contractual Life Aggregate of Shares Exercise Price (in years) Intrinsic Value Options outstanding at January 1, 2019 3,746,567 $ 6.58 7.6 $ 3,897 Granted 1,245,133 3.73 Exercised (44,885) 2.20 Cancelled (382,722) 9.66 Options outstanding at June 30, 2019 4,564,093 $ 5.58 7.6 $ 4,178 Options exercisable at June 30, 2019 2,385,051 $ 4.21 6.3 $ 3,655 The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, was $ 2.46 and $ 9.56 per share, respectively. Cash received from the exercise of stock options was $100 and $ 725 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Stock-based compensation The Company uses the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation, to account for stock-based awards. The measurement date for employee awards is generally the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, using the straight-line method. The following table presents stock-based compensation expense as reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss): Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Research and development $ 533 $ 438 $ 1,049 $ 807 General and administrative 628 518 1,276 896 Stock-based compensation expense included in total operating expenses $ 1,161 $ 956 $ 2,325 $ 1,703 The Company had an aggregate of $9,091 of unrecognized stock compensation cost as of June 30, 2019 remaining to be amortized over the weighted-average period of 2.3 years. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Risk-free interest rate 2.0 % 2.8 % 2.5 % 2.7 % Expected dividend yield — % — % — % — % Expected term (years) 5.70 6.10 5.95 6.08 Expected stock price volatility 74 % 73 % 74 % 73 % Employee Stock Purchase Plan During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Board adopted, and the Company’s stockholders approved the 2017 employee stock purchase plan (the 2017 ESPP). The Company initially reserved 225,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2017 ESPP. In January 2019, the number of shares of common stock for issuance under the 2017 ESPP was increased by 232,344 shares. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 82,281 shares under the 2017 ESPP. The Company did not issue any shares under the 2017 ESPP during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include those of the Company and its subsidiary, Mersana Securities Corp. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company’s management evaluates its estimates, which include, but are not limited to, management’s judgments with respect to the performance obligations and estimated selling prices within its revenue arrangements, accrued expenses, valuation of stock-based awards and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Segment Information | Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company operates and manages its business as a single operating segment, which is the business of discovering and developing ADCs. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants at measurement dates. ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820) establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for instruments measured at fair value. The hierarchy is based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1—Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2—Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity, or a remaining maturity at the time of purchase, of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company invests excess cash primarily in money market funds, commercial paper and government agency securities, which are highly liquid and have strong credit ratings. These investments are subject to minimal credit and market risks. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. The following amounts were presented as cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash: Six months ended Six months ended June 30, 2019 June 30, 2018 Beginning End Beginning End of period of period of period of period Cash and cash equivalents $ 59,634 $ 116,206 $ 26,591 $ 51,142 Restricted cash included in other assets, noncurrent 371 371 371 371 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash per statement of cash flows $ 60,005 $ 116,577 $ 26,962 $ 51,513 |
Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities Short-term marketable securities consist of investments with maturities greater than three months and less than one year from the balance sheet date. Long-term marketable securities consist of investments with maturities greater than one year that are not expected to be used to fund current operations. The Company classifies all of its marketable securities as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value. Amortization and accretion of discounts and premiums are recorded as interest income within other income. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities are included in other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary are included as a component of other income (expense), net, based on the specific identification method. When determining whether a decline in value is other than temporary, the Company considers various factors, including whether the Company has the intent to sell the security, and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis. Fair value is determined based on quoted market prices. |
Other Assets | Other Assets The Company recorded other assets of $1,503 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, comprised of restricted cash of $371 held as security deposits for a standby letter of credit and $1,132 held by a service provider. |
Leases | Leases Consistent with ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in right-of-use lease assets (ROU assets), current portion of lease obligations and long-term lease obligations on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Assets subject to finance leases are included in property and equipment, and the related lease obligation is included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Lease assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in operations. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense while expense for financing leases is recognized as depreciation expense and interest expense using the effective interest method. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for short-term leases, which allows the Company to not recognize lease liabilities and ROU assets on the consolidated balance sheets for leases with an original term of twelve months or less. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating ROU assets and obligations are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU lease asset also includes lease payments made and lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842), which replaced the guidance in ASC 840, Leases . The updated standard aims to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. This standard is effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted in ASC Topic 842. Accordingly, the Company accounted for its existing operating leases as operating leases under the new guidance, without reassessing (a) whether the contracts contain a lease under ASC Topic 842, (b) whether classification of the operating leases would be different in accordance with ASC Topic 842, or (c) whether the unamortized initial direct costs would have met the definition of initial direct costs in ASC Topic 842 at lease commencement. The Company also elected not to include leases with an initial term of twelve months or less in the recognized ROU asset and lease liabilities. As a result of the adoption of the new lease accounting guidance, the Company recognized on January 1, 2019 (a) an operating lease liability of $4,778, and (b) an operating ROU asset of $4,369 which represents the lease liability of $4,778 adjusted for deferred rent of $409. This standard had a material impact on the Company’s balance sheets but had no impact on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows from operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease obligations for operating leases. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This guidance simplifies the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance per ASU 2018-07 is to be adopted by using a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard at the date of initial application. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s 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 . The main provisions of ASU 2018-18 include: (i) clarifying that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account and (ii) precluding the presentation of transactions with collaborative arrangement participants that are not directly related to sales to third parties together with revenue. This guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance per ASU 2018-18 is to be adopted retrospectively to the date of initial application of Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that ASU No. 2018-18 may have on its financial position and results of operations. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Currently, U.S. GAAP delays recognition of the full amount of credit losses until the loss is probable of occurring. Under this ASU, the income statement will reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses will be based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct write-down of the security. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that ASU 2016-13 may have on its financial position and results of operations. |
