Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30 , 2021 , and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity ( deficit ) and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 and 20 20 are unaudited. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30 , 2021 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 and 2020 . The financial data and the other financial information contained in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to the three and six month periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 202 1 or for any other future annual or interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20 20 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021. Use of Estimates The preparation of 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 financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including but not limited to stock options, Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Annexon, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary and include the results of operations and cash flows of these entities. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents, which includes amounts invested in money market funds, are stated at fair value. Restricted cash as of June 30, 2021 relates to the letters of credit established for the Company’s office leases. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Cash $ 587 $ 597 Cash equivalents 99,001 267,968 Cash and cash equivalents 99,588 268,565 Restricted cash 1,166 — Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 100,754 $ 268,565 Short-Term Investments Short-term investments have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at estimated fair value as determined based upon quoted market prices or pricing models for similar securities. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt securities at the time of purchase. Available-for-sale securities with original maturities beyond three months at the date of purchase are classified as current based on their availability for use in current operations. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as a component of other comprehensive loss. The Company periodically evaluates whether declines in fair values of its marketable securities below their book value are other-than-temporary. This evaluation consists of several qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the severity and duration of the unrealized loss as well as the Company’s ability and intent to hold the marketable security until a forecasted recovery occurs. Additionally, the Company assesses whether it has plans to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell any marketable securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Impairment assessments are made at the individual security level each reporting period. When the fair value of an available-for- sale security is less than its cost at the balance sheet date, a determination is made as to whether the impairment is other-than-temporary and, if it is other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is recognized in other income, net, equal to the difference between the investment’s amortized cost and fair value at such date. The cost of investments sold is based on the specific-identification method. Interest on marketable securities is included in other income, net. Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Upon adoption of Accounting Standards Codification 842, Leases As a practical expedient, the Company elected, for all facility leases, not to separate non-lease components from lease components and instead to account for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company elected to exclude from its balance sheets recognition of leases having a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases). Foreign Currencies The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiary located in Australia is the Australian Dollar. Balance sheets prepared in the functional currencies are translated to the reporting currency at exchange rates in effect at the end of the accounting period, except for stockholders’ equity accounts, which are translated at rates in effect when these balances were originally recorded. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using a weighted-average rate during the year. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Foreign currency translation adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 Gains and losses resulting from exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local currency are included in earnings as incurred. Research and Development Expense Research and development expenses consist primarily of direct and indirect costs incurred for the development of the Company’s product candidates. Direct expenses include (i) preclinical and clinical outside service costs associated with discovery, preclinical and clinical testing of the Company’s product candidates; (ii) professional services agreements with third-party contract organizations, investigative clinical trial sites and consultants that conduct research and development activities on the Company’s behalf; (iii) contract manufacturing costs to produce clinical trial materials; and (iv) laboratory supplies and materials. Indirect expenses include (A) compensation and personnel- related expenses (including stock-based compensation) ; (B) allocated expenses for facilities and depreciation; and (C) other indirect costs. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Payments made to third parties are under agreements that are generally cancelable by the Company. Advance payments for research and development activities are deferred as prepaid expenses. The prepaid amounts are expensed as the related services are performed. The Company estimates preclinical studies and clinical trial expenses based on the services performed pursuant to contracts with research institutions and clinical research organizations that conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on the Company’s behalf. In accruing service fees, the Company estimates the period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period. These estimates are based on the Company’s communications with the third-party service providers and on information available at each balance sheet date. If the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies significantly from the estimate, the Company will adjust the accrual accordingly to reflect the best information available at the time of the financial statement issuance. The Company has not experienced any material differences between accrued costs and actual costs incurred since its inception. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements using a fair value method which requires the recognition of compensation expense for costs related to all stock-based payments, including stock options. The fair value method requires the Company to estimate the fair value of stock-based payment awards to employees on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company grants certain employees performance-based stock options. For awards that include performance conditions, no compensation cost is recognized until the performance goals are probable of being met, at which time the cumulative compensation expense from the service inception date would be recognized. Stock-based compensation costs are based on the fair value of the underlying option calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized as expense on a straight-line basis (for all but performance based awards for which the accelerated method is used) over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Determining the appropriate fair value model and related assumptions requires judgment, including estimating the fair value of the underlying common stock, expected term, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential dilutive shares of common stock. As the Company was in a loss position for all periods presented, basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders because the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company’s cash and Management Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract (Topic 350) . The standard requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred over the noncancelable term of the cloud computing arrangements plus any optional renewal periods (1) that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or (2) for which exercise of the renewal option is controlled by the cloud service provider. The effective date of this pronouncement is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The standard can be adopted either using the prospective or retrospective transition approach.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	3. Fair Value Measurements The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels: • Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date. • Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. • Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date. On a recurring basis, the Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The following tables summarize the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands): June 30, 2021 Valuation Hierarchy Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Holding Gains Gross Unrealized Holding Losses Aggregate Fair Value Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds Level 1 $ 99,001 $ — $ — $ 99,001 Short-term investments: Commercial paper Level 2 114,838 — — 114,838 Corporate debt Level 2 62,515 14 (9 ) 62,520 Government bonds Level 2 25,437 3 — 25,440 Total assets $ 301,791 $ 17 $ (9 ) $ 301,799 December 31, 2020 Valuation Hierarchy Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Holding Gains Gross Unrealized Holding Losses Aggregate Fair Value Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds Level 1 $ 267,968 $ — $ — $ 267,968 Short-term investments: Commercial paper Level 2 59,930 — — 59,930 Corporate bonds Level 2 22,717 1 (7 ) 22,711 Total assets $ 350,615 $ 1 $ (7 ) $ 350,609 For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Equity Incentive Plan	7. Equity Incentive Plan In July 2020, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders adopted and approved the 2020 Incentive Award Plan, or the 2020 Plan, and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or the ESPP, which became effective in connection with the IPO. The Company may not grant any additional awards under the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2011 Plan. The 2011 Plan will continue to govern outstanding equity awards . 2020 Equity Incentive Plan The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan automatically increases on the first day of January, commencing on January 1, 2021 and ending in 2030, in an amount equal to 4% of the total number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding on the last day of the preceding year, or a lesser number of shares determined by the Company’s board of directors. Awards granted under the 2020 Plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant. For the Incentive Stock Options, or ISOs, and Nonstatutory Stock Options, or NSOs, the option price shall not be less than 100% of the estimated fair value on the date of grant. Options granted typically vest over a four-year Stock option activity under the 2011 Plan and the 2020 Plan was as follows: Shares Available for Grant Number of Shares Weighted- Average Exercise Price Per Share Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Balances as of December 31, 2020 2,707,947 3,909,873 $ 10.78 8.40 $ 56,128 Additional shares authorized 1,526,304 — Stock options granted (2,122,600 ) 2,122,600 28.09 Stock options exercised — (157,735 ) 5.08 Stock options forfeited 201,715 (201,715 ) 22.69 Balances as of June 30, 2021 2,313,366 5,673,023 $ 16.99 8.56 $ 43,667 Exercisable as of June 30, 2021 1,676,944 $ 7.89 7.02 $ 25,467 The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were $2.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively. There were no options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The intrinsic value is the difference between the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the time of exercise and the exercise price of the stock option. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The ESPP enables eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at the end of each offering period at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of the shares on the first business day or the last business day of the offering period, whichever is lower. Eligible employees generally include all employees. Share purchases are funded through payroll deductions of at least 1%, and up to 15% of an employee’s eligible compensation for each payroll period. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the ESPP increase automatically on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning on January 1, 2021, by a number equal to the least of 360,086 shares, 1% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, or such number of shares determined by the Company’s board of directors. As of June 30, 2021, 734,903 Stock-Based Compensation Expense The total stock-based compensation expense recognized related to the Company’s equity incentive plans Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Research and development $ 2,402 $ 335 $ 3,948 $ 660 General and administrative 2,115 428 3,531 766 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 4,517 $ 763 $ 7,479 $ 1,426 The stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $34,000 and $65,000, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to outstanding unvested stock options that are expected to vest was $59.2 million, which the Company expects to recognize over an estimated weighted-average period of 3.36 years. To determine the value of stock option awards for stock-based compensation purposes, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions discussed below. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant judgment. Fair Value of Common Stock— Historically, for all periods prior to the IPO in July 2020, fair values of the shares of common stock underlying the Company’s share-based awards were estimated on each grant date by the Company’s board of directors. The board of directors considered, among other things, valuations of the Company’s common stock which were prepared by an independent third- party valuation firm in accordance with the guidance provided by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants 2013 Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation . After the completion of the IPO in July 2020, the fair value of each share of underlying common stock is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the date of grant on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Expected Term —The Company’s expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The Company’s historical share option exercise information is limited due to a lack of sufficient data points and did not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate an expected term. The expected term for option grants is therefore determined using the simplified method (based on the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term). Expected Volatility —Because the Company does not have sufficient trading history for its common stock, the expected volatility was estimated based on the average volatility for comparable publicly traded life science companies over a period equal to the expected term of the stock option grants. The comparable companies were chosen based on the similar size, stage in the life cycle, or area of specialty. The Company will continue to apply this process until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of its own stock price becomes available and to align with the Company’s expected term. Risk-Free Interest Rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of the option. Dividend Yield —The Company has never paid dividends on its common stock and has no plans to pay dividends on its common stock. Therefore, the Company used an expected dividend yield of zero. The fair value of each award issued was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Expected term (in years) 5.50 - 6.08 5.00 - 6.08 4.33 - 6.08 5.00 - 6.08 Expected volatility 89.50% - 90.70% 85% 89.50% - 90.70% 85% Risk-free interest rate 0.88% - 1.01% 0.33% - 0.45% 0.35% - 1.02% 0.33% - 1.45% Dividend yield — — — —

Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30 , 2021 , and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity ( deficit ) and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 and 20 20 are unaudited. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30 , 2021 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 and 2020 . The financial data and the other financial information contained in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to the three and six month periods are also unaudited. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30 , 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 202 1 or for any other future annual or interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20 20 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of 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 financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including but not limited to stock options,
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Annexon, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary and include the results of operations and cash flows of these entities. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash	Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents, which includes amounts invested in money market funds, are stated at fair value. Restricted cash as of June 30, 2021 relates to the letters of credit established for the Company’s office leases. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Cash $ 587 $ 597 Cash equivalents 99,001 267,968 Cash and cash equivalents 99,588 268,565 Restricted cash 1,166 — Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 100,754 $ 268,565
Short-Term Investments	Short-Term Investments Short-term investments have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at estimated fair value as determined based upon quoted market prices or pricing models for similar securities. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt securities at the time of purchase. Available-for-sale securities with original maturities beyond three months at the date of purchase are classified as current based on their availability for use in current operations. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as a component of other comprehensive loss. The Company periodically evaluates whether declines in fair values of its marketable securities below their book value are other-than-temporary. This evaluation consists of several qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the severity and duration of the unrealized loss as well as the Company’s ability and intent to hold the marketable security until a forecasted recovery occurs. Additionally, the Company assesses whether it has plans to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell any marketable securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Impairment assessments are made at the individual security level each reporting period. When the fair value of an available-for- sale security is less than its cost at the balance sheet date, a determination is made as to whether the impairment is other-than-temporary and, if it is other-than-temporary, an impairment loss is recognized in other income, net, equal to the difference between the investment’s amortized cost and fair value at such date. The cost of investments sold is based on the specific-identification method. Interest on marketable securities is included in other income, net.
Leases	Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Upon adoption of Accounting Standards Codification 842, Leases As a practical expedient, the Company elected, for all facility leases, not to separate non-lease components from lease components and instead to account for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company elected to exclude from its balance sheets recognition of leases having a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases).
Foreign Currencies	Foreign Currencies The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiary located in Australia is the Australian Dollar. Balance sheets prepared in the functional currencies are translated to the reporting currency at exchange rates in effect at the end of the accounting period, except for stockholders’ equity accounts, which are translated at rates in effect when these balances were originally recorded. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using a weighted-average rate during the year. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Foreign currency translation adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 Gains and losses resulting from exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local currency are included in earnings as incurred.
Research and Development Expense	Research and Development Expense Research and development expenses consist primarily of direct and indirect costs incurred for the development of the Company’s product candidates. Direct expenses include (i) preclinical and clinical outside service costs associated with discovery, preclinical and clinical testing of the Company’s product candidates; (ii) professional services agreements with third-party contract organizations, investigative clinical trial sites and consultants that conduct research and development activities on the Company’s behalf; (iii) contract manufacturing costs to produce clinical trial materials; and (iv) laboratory supplies and materials. Indirect expenses include (A) compensation and personnel- related expenses (including stock-based compensation) ; (B) allocated expenses for facilities and depreciation; and (C) other indirect costs. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Payments made to third parties are under agreements that are generally cancelable by the Company. Advance payments for research and development activities are deferred as prepaid expenses. The prepaid amounts are expensed as the related services are performed. The Company estimates preclinical studies and clinical trial expenses based on the services performed pursuant to contracts with research institutions and clinical research organizations that conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on the Company’s behalf. In accruing service fees, the Company estimates the period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period. These estimates are based on the Company’s communications with the third-party service providers and on information available at each balance sheet date. If the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies significantly from the estimate, the Company will adjust the accrual accordingly to reflect the best information available at the time of the financial statement issuance. The Company has not experienced any material differences between accrued costs and actual costs incurred since its inception.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements using a fair value method which requires the recognition of compensation expense for costs related to all stock-based payments, including stock options. The fair value method requires the Company to estimate the fair value of stock-based payment awards to employees on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company grants certain employees performance-based stock options. For awards that include performance conditions, no compensation cost is recognized until the performance goals are probable of being met, at which time the cumulative compensation expense from the service inception date would be recognized. Stock-based compensation costs are based on the fair value of the underlying option calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized as expense on a straight-line basis (for all but performance based awards for which the accelerated method is used) over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Determining the appropriate fair value model and related assumptions requires judgment, including estimating the fair value of the underlying common stock, expected term, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.
Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders	Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential dilutive shares of common stock. As the Company was in a loss position for all periods presented, basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders because the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company’s cash and Management

The Company has chosen to apply the package of practical expedients for existing leases, which provides relief from reassessing: (i) whether a contract is or contains a lease, (ii) lease classification, and (iii) whether initial direct costs can be capitalized. The Company did not elect the hindsight practical expedient to reassess the lease term for existing leases. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption, under which any lease less than 12 months is excluded from recognition on the balance sheet. Additionally, the Company elected the non-separation of lease and non-lease components. either using the prospective or retrospective transition approach. The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-15 on January 1, 2021 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
