Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization and Business | Organization and Business Organization Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (successor to Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC) (“Zentalis”, “We” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing clinically differentiated, novel small molecule therapeutics targeting fundamental biological pathways of cancer. The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. To date, all of the Company’s revenue has been generated in the United States. All of the Company’s tangible assets are held in the United States. The Company was formed and incorporated in the state of Delaware as Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on December 23, 2014. Effective November 21, 2017, Zeno Pharma, LLC was formed by the shareholders of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On December 21, 2017, Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Zeno Pharma, LLC. In connection with this restructuring, the rights and preferences of the Preferred Stock of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. were exchanged for preferred units with similar rights and preferences of Zeno Pharma, LLC. As part of the restructuring, the employees, consultants and board members of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. exchanged their equity grants in Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. stock for Class B common units in Zeno Pharma, LLC. Additionally, existing common stockholders of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. exchanged their common stock for Class A common units in Zeno Pharma, LLC. All exchanges were made on a one-for-one basis. The restructuring was accounted for as a common control transaction. In December 2019, the Company was renamed to Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. Immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement pertaining to the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) on April 2, 2020, the Company converted from a Delaware limited liability company into a Delaware corporation, and changed its name to Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Pursuant to the statutory corporate conversion, all of the outstanding units of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC converted into shares of common stock of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. based upon the value of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at the time of the IPO with a value implied by the price of the shares of common stock sold in the IPO. Based on the IPO price of $18.00 per share, the outstanding units converted into 25,288,854 shares of common stock (including 1,160,277 shares of restricted common stock). On April 7, 2020, the Company completed the IPO in which the Company issued and sold 10,557,000 shares of common stock (including 1,377,000 shares of common stock in connection with the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. The Company’s aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of shares in the IPO, including the sale of shares pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, was $190.0 million before fees and expenses of $17.6 million. On May 19, 2020, the Company announced the closing of a Series A financing of Zentera Therapeutics, Ltd. (“Zentera”), a majority owned biopharmaceutical company with headquarters in Shanghai, China. Contributions from non-controlling interest members totaled $20.0 million before issuing costs of $1.6 million. The Company holds 60.2% equity interest in Zentera for purposes of the development and commercialization of ZN-c5, ZN-d5 and ZN-c3 for the treatment or preventions of disease, other than for pain, in the People’s Republic of China, Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Two of our executives entered into restricted stock purchase agreements with Zentera. The associated shares vest over four years. On August 3, 2020, the Company completed a follow-on offering in which the Company issued and sold 4,125,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $35.00 per share. The Company’s aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of shares in the follow-on offering was $144.4 million before estimated fees and expenses of $9.4 million. The Company granted the underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase up to 618,750 additional shares of common stock. Liquidity |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Interim Unaudited Financial Statements | Interim Unaudited Financial Statements Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) related to a quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s final prospectus for its IPO, filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, with the SEC on April 6, 2020. The unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented herein reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operation for the periods presented, with such adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries, majority-owned or controlled companies, and variable interest entity (“VIE”), Kalyra Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Kalyra”), for which we are the primary beneficiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, which are based on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and, as such, actual results may differ from management’s estimates. Though the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business and operating results presents additional uncertainty, we continue to use the best information available to inform our critical accounting estimates. Marketable Securities Marketable securities are investments with original maturities of more than ninety days from the date of purchase that we have the ability to liquidate to fund current operations. Accordingly, those investments with contractual maturities greater than one year from the date of purchase are classified as short-term investments on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets Marketable securities are considered available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and included as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit. The cost of marketable securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts to maturity, and such amortization or accretion is included in investment and other income, net in the interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. We assess whether our available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position have credit-related losses and record such losses, and any subsequent improvements as interest income, through an allowance account. We use the specific identification method for calculating realized gains and losses on marketable securities sold. Realized gains and losses on marketable securities, if any, are included in investment and other income, net in the interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Adoption and Pending Adoption of Recent Accounting Pronouncements The following table provides a brief description of recently issued accounting standards, those adopted in the current period and those not yet adopted: Standard Description Effective Date Effect on the Financial In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments This guidance makes improvements to financial instruments guidance, including the current expected credit losses guidance. January 1, 2020 We have adopted the new guidance as of January 1, 2020. The impact of the adoption was not material to the consolidated financial statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321) This standard clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities (ASC 321), equity method investments (ASC 323), and certain derivatives (ASC 815). January 1, 2021 We currently do not hold equity securities, have equity method investments or derivatives. We do not believe the adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or 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. In November 2018 and April and May of 2019, the FASB issued additional guidance related to Topic 326. The standard amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. January 1, 2020 We have adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2020. The impact of the adoption was not material to the consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new guidance is intended to simplify aspects of the accounting for income taxes, including the elimination of certain exceptions to the guidance in ASC 740 related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, among other changes. January 1, 2020 We have adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2020. The impact of the adoption was not material to the consolidated financial statements. |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations Kalyra Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On December 21, 2017, we acquired $4.5 million of Kalyra’s Series B Preferred Stock representing a 25% equity interest in Kalyra for purposes of entering the analgesics therapeutic research space. The acquisition price was paid entirely in cash. In accordance with the authoritative guidance, we concluded that Kalyra is a business consisting of inputs, employees, intellectual property and processes capable of producing outputs. Additionally, we have concluded that Kalyra is a variable interest entity, we are the primary beneficiary and have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect Kalyra’s economic performance through common management and our board representation. Prior to the change of control, Zentalis and Kalyra transacted for the delivery of research and development services and support. The financial position and results of operations of Kalyra have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of the initial investment. Pursuant with authoritative guidance, we have recorded the identifiable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests in the VIE at their fair value upon initial consolidation. The identified goodwill is comprised of the workforce and expected synergies from combining the entities. Total assets and liabilities of Kalyra as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows (in thousands): June 30, December 31, 2020 2019 Cash and cash equivalents $ 430 $ 712 Other current assets 51 21 In-process research and development 8,800 8,800 Goodwill 3,736 3,736 Other long-term assets — 14 Accounts payable and accrued expenses 65 391 Deferred tax liability 2,463 2,463 Noncontrolling interests $ 6,643 $ 6,821 The liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating Kalyra do not represent additional claims on our general assets.

When evaluating an investment for impairment, we review factors such as the severity of the impairment, changes in underlying credit ratings, forecasted recovery, our intent to sell or the likelihood that we would be required to sell the investment before its anticipated recovery in market value and the probability that the scheduled cash payments will continue to be made. Based on our review of these marketable securities, we believe none of the unrealized loss is as a result of a credit loss as of June 30, 2020, because we do not intend to sell these securities and it is not more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis.

Under the terms of the Series A Preferred Agreement, Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. issued 1,293,104 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock at $11.60 per share for gross proceeds of $15.0 million. The net proceeds of this financing were $14.9 million after issuance costs of $0.1 million. In February and March 2016, Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. issued an aggregate of 286,205 additional shares of Series A convertible preferred stock at $11.60 per share for additional gross proceeds of $3.3 million. The issuance costs of this additional financing were approximately thirty-nine thousand dollars. All Series A convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding by Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was converted into Series A convertible preferred units of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC in conjunction with the corporate restructuring and merger. Series B Convertible Preferred Units In December 2017, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC entered into a Series B Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Series B Preferred Agreement”). Under the terms of the Series B Preferred Agreement, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC issued 2,735,320 Series B preferred units at $12.43 per unit for gross proceeds of $34.0 million. The net proceeds of this financing were $32.1 million after issuance costs of $1.9 million. In January and August 2018, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC issued an aggregate of 788,419 additional shares of Series B preferred units at $12.43 per unit for additional gross proceeds of $9.8 million. The net proceeds of this additional financing were $9.5 million after issuance costs of $0.3 million. Series C Preferred Unit Issuance In September 2019, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC entered into a Series C Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Series C Preferred Agreement”). Under the terms of the Series C Preferred Agreement, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC issued 4,847,106 units of Series C convertible preferred units at $17.50 per unit for gross proceeds of $84.8 million. The net proceeds of this financing were $81.9 million after issuance costs of $2.9 million.

The units were issued for $17.50 per unit for gross proceeds of $15.2 million. The net proceeds of this financing were $14.2 million after issuance costs of $1.0 million. There were no authorized, issued, and outstanding shares of convertible preferred units at June 30, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, the authorized, issued, and outstanding units of convertible preferred units were as follows: December 31, 2019 Series Units Units Issued Liquidation Carrying Value Series A convertible preferred units 1,579,309 1,579,309 $ 18,319,984 $ 18,225,809 Series B convertible preferred units 3,523,739 3,523,739 43,800,076 41,603,945 Series C convertible preferred units 5,714,300 4,847,106 84,824,355 81,876,092 Total 10,817,348 9,950,154 $ 146,944,415 $ 141,705,846 During 2019, we reclassified the convertible preferred units from members’ equity to temporary equity because, in conjunction with the Series C convertible preferred units issuance, all units were now deemed to contain contingent liquidation features that are not solely within our control. During the year ended December 31, 2019 and prior to the conversion of convertible preferred units into common stock in conjunction with our IPO on April 2, 2020, we did not adjust the carrying values of the convertible preferred units to the deemed redemption values of such units since a liquidation event was not probable. Dividends Dividends are payable if and when declared by the Board of Directors. No dividends have been declared prior to the conversion of convertible preferred units into common stock in conjunction with our IPO on April 2, 2020. Conversion Each Series A preferred unit, Series B preferred unit and Series C preferred unit was convertible at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the issuance of such unit, into Class A common units at a conversion price equal to the original purchase price (subject to anti-dilution adjustments, discussed below) which was $11.60, $12.43 and $17.50 per unit, respectively. The convertible preferred units automatically converted at the then applicable conversion rate upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of shares of a successor corporations’ common stock, at a public offering price per share of equal to or greater than the Series C original purchase price (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or other similar recapitalization) resulting in aggregate gross cash proceeds of at least $75.0 million (a “Qualified IPO”). Additionally, the convertible preferred units would have automatically converted into common stock, at the then applicable conversion rate, upon written consent of a majority of the then outstanding Series A, Series B and Series C convertible preferred units (voting as a separate class on an as converted to Common Unit basis). In conjunction with our IPO on April 2, 2020, which constituted a Qualified IPO, all convertible preferred units were converted into common stock. Anti-dilution protection The holders of the convertible preferred unit had proportional anti-dilution protection for unit splits, unit dividends and similar recapitalizations. Subject to certain exclusions, anti-dilution price protection for additional sales of securities by us for consideration per unit less than the applicable conversion price per unit of any series of convertible preferred stock, was on a broad-based weighted average basis. Protective rights The holders of the convertible preferred units had certain protective rights, including, without limitation, regarding the authorization, alteration, redemption, or sale of Class B common units; commencement of a liquidation or deemed liquidation event; entrance into a joint venture or partnership; any incurrence of indebtedness; certain transactions that exceed a certain dollar threshold; changes to our governing documents; or the declaration of any dividends. Such actions were required to be approved by a majority of the then outstanding Series A, Series B and Series C convertible preferred unit holders (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), as specified in the amended and restated LLC agreement. An increase or decrease in the authorized number of Directors constituting the Board or the creation of a membership interest or equity security senior to or pari passu with Series C convertible preferred units was required to be approved by a majority of the then outstanding Series C convertible preferred Units (voting as a separate class on an as converted basis). Redemption The Series A, Series B and Series C convertible preferred units were not redeemable except in the event of certain effected deemed liquidation events. As of immediately prior to our IPO on April 2, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had classified convertible preferred units as temporary equity in accordance with authoritative guidance for the classification and measurement of potentially redeemable securities whose redemption is based upon certain change in control events outside of our control, including liquidation, sale or transfer of control of the Company. We did not adjust the carrying value of the convertible preferred units to the deemed redemption values of such units since a liquidation event was not probable. Liquidation preference In the event of the dissolution, liquidation, merger or winding up of the Company, the holders of Series C convertible preferred units were entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis in respect of each such Series C convertible preferred unit, a preference amount of $17.50 per Series C convertible unit (as adjusted for any unit splits, dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or the like). Subsequent to the payment of the Series C convertible preferred unit preferences, Series A and Series B convertible preferred units were entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis in respect of each convertible preferred unit in proportion to the relative preference amount of each preferred unit, a preference amount of $11.60 and $12.43 per unit of Series A and Series B convertible preferred units (as adjusted for any units splits, dividend, combinations, recapitalizations of the like), respectively. Subsequent to the payment of the Series C, Series A and Series B convertible preferred unit preferences, Series A, Series B and Series C convertible preferred units were entitled to receive, on an as converted to common unit pro rata basis, an amount equal to distributions made to Class A common units prior to all unit classes sharing in distributions on a pro rata basis. Thereafter, Series A, Series B and Series C convertible preferred units and Series A and Series B common units were entitled to receive the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its unit holders pro rata based on the number of common units held by each holder, treating for these purposes as if all units had been converted to common. Voting Rights The holders of all units other than Class B common units that were unvested were to vote together as a single class. Each holder of Series A, Series B and Series C convertible preferred units were entitled to the number of votes calculated on an as converted to Class A common unit basis. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Equity and Share-based Compensation | Equity and Share-based Compensation In November 2017, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC was formed in the state of Delaware. In conjunction with a corporate restructuring, Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware Corporation formed in 2014, was acquired by the Company pursuant to a merger agreement and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Per the terms of the merger agreement, each share of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger was converted into the right to receive one Class A common unit and each share of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger converted into the right to receive one Series A preferred unit. As of the effective time of the merger agreement, all outstanding options to purchase shares of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. common stock were cancelled and replaced with profit interest awards in the LLC. In connection with the December 2017 corporate restructuring, we amended and restated the LLC agreement, and as amended, the capital units of the Company consisted of 1,638,000 authorized Series A preferred units, 3,621,000 authorized Series B preferred units, 15,000,000 authorized Class A common units and 872,620 authorized Class B common units. Class A Common Units In conjunction with the corporate restructuring in December 2017, 5,187,554 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 406,831 shares of common stock subject to future vesting provisions of Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. were converted into an equal number of Class A common units of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we did not issue any Class A common units. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, zero and 9,572 Class A common units were subject to future vesting conditions, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2019, 7,093 Class A common units were issued and 9,572 Class A common units were subject to future vesting conditions. In September 2019, the number of authorized Class A common units was increased to 20,000,000. Class B Common Units In conjunction with the corporate restructuring in December 2017, 703,000 options exercisable into Zeno Pharmaceuticals, Inc. common stock were converted into an equal number of Class B common units of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. In September 2019, the number of authorized Class B common units was increased to 3,458,522. IPO On April 2, 2020 and immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Company’s IPO, Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC converted from a Delaware limited liability company into a Delaware corporation pursuant to a statutory conversion, and changed its name to Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. In order to consummate the corporate conversion, a certificate of conversion was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. All of the outstanding units of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, LLC converted into shares of common stock of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. based upon the value of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at the time of the IPO with a value implied by the price of the shares of common stock sold in the IPO. No cash or fractional shares of common stock were issued in connection with the corporate conversion. Based on the IPO price of $18.00 per share of common stock, all of the outstanding units converted into an aggregate of 25,288,854 shares of common stock (including 1,160,277 shares of restricted common stock). In connection with the completion of the IPO, the board and stockholders approved the certificate of incorporation to provide for 250,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. On April 7, 2020, the Company completed an IPO in which the Company issued and sold 10,557,000 shares of common stock (including 1,377,000 shares of common stock in connection with the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) at a price of $18.00 per share. The Company’s aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of shares in the IPO, including the sale of shares pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, was $190.0 million before fees and expenses of $17.6 million. Share-based Compensation In the Company’s 2017 Profit Interest Plan (the Plan) as approved and adopted by the Board of Directors on December 21, 2017, the Company was authorized to issue up to 3,458,522 shares of Class B common units, subject to restrictions as described in the Plan. The Plan was terminated in April 2020. In April 2020, the Company’s board of directors adopted, and the Company’s stockholders approved the 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the 2020 Plan), which became effective upon the corporate conversion. The number of common shares initially available for issuance under the 2020 Plan is the sum of (1) 5,600,000 shares of common stock; plus (2) any shares forfeited from the unvested restricted shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of unvested Class B common units (up to 1,250,000 shares); plus (3) an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 and continuing to, and including, the fiscal year ending December 31, 2030, equal to the lesser of (a) 5% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year and (b) such smaller number of shares as determined by our board of directors. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company granted 70,000 Class B common units to employees and directors under the Plan. The weighted average fair value of incentive units granted in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.06 per unit. In April 2020, each outstanding Class B common unit was converted into a number of shares of common stock and restricted common stock based upon the IPO price. The restricted common stock issued in respect of Class B common units continues to be subject to vesting in accordance with the vesting schedule that was applicable to such Class B common units. The Company granted 1,160,277 shares of restricted common stock to employees, consultants and directors as part of the conversion. From and after the IPO, Company also granted 1,970,671 stock options to purchase shares of common stock to employees and directors who were holders of Class B common units at the time of the incentive unit conversion and in new employee grants. The weighted average fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors in the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $11.97 per share. Total share-based compensation expense related to share based awards was comprised of the following (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2020 2019 2020 2019 Research and development expense $ 2,291 $ 63 $ 2,426 $ 129 General and administrative expense 5,390 58 5,584 121 Total share-based compensation expense $ 7,681 $ 121 $ 8,010 $ 250 Share-based compensation expense by type of share-based award (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2020 2019 2020 2019 Profit Interest Award Units $ — $ 121 $ 329 $ 250 Stock Options 1,602 — 1,602 — RSAs and RSUs 6,079 — 6,079 — $ 7,681 $ 121 $ 8,010 $ 250 The fair value of the Class B common unit awards was estimated using an option pricing model with the following assumptions: Six Months Ended 2020 2019 Members’ equity value (in thousands) $ 271,207 $ 197,041 Threshold amounts (in thousands) $ 309,824 $ 143,800 Risk free rate 1.5 % 1.5 % Volatility 75.0 % 75.0 % Time to liquidity (in years) 1.1 1.3 Lack of marketability discount 26.5 % 1.9 % Grant date fair value $ 3.06 $ 1.88 The Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes model) is used to estimate the fair value of each Class B common unit award on the date of grant. The members’ equity value was based on a recent enterprise valuation analysis performed. The threshold amounts are based on the discretion of the Board of Directors at the time of grant. The expected life of the Class B common unit awards granted during the period presented was determined based on an expected liquidation event under the plan. We applied the risk-free interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant consistent with the life of the award. The expected volatility was based on a peer group in the industry in which the Company does business consistent with the expected time to liquidity. The dividend yield was set at zero as the underlying security does not and is not expected to pay a dividend. The Finnerty model and the Asian Protective Put Model methods were used to estimate the discount for lack of marketability inherent to the awards. The Class B common units issued have been classified as equity awards, and share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value of the award. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we issued 70,000 and 91,000 Class B common units, respectively. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, zero and approximately 1.7 million unvested Class B common units were outstanding, respectively. The exercise price of stock options granted is equal to the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. Due to the Company’s limited operating history and a lack of company specific historical and implied volatility data, the Company estimates expected volatility based on the historical volatility of a group of similar companies that are publicly traded. The historical volatility data was computed using the daily closing prices for the selected companies’ shares during the equivalent period of the calculated expected term of the stock-based awards. The Company uses the “simplified method” for estimating the expected term of employee options, whereby the expected term equals the arithmetic average of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the option (generally 10 years). The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has not issued any dividends and does not expect to issue dividends over the life of the options. As a result, the Company has estimated the dividend yield to be zero. The fair value of the stock options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was determined with the following assumptions: June 30, 2020 Expected volatility 77.5 % Average expected term (in years) 6 Risk-free interest rate 0.5 % Expected dividend yield — % Total unrecognized estimated compensation cost by type of award and the weighted average requisite service period over which such expense is expected to be recognized (in thousands, unless otherwise noted): June 30, 2020 Unrecognized Remaining Stock options $ 22,184 3.67 RSAs 3,030 2.97 RSUs $ 22,273 1.38 |

Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal Contingencies From time to time, we may be involved in various disputes, including lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including actions with respect to intellectual property, employment, and contractual matters. Any of these claims could subject us to costly legal expenses. While we do generally believe that we have adequate insurance to cover many different types of liabilities, our insurance carriers may deny coverage, or our policy limits may be inadequate to fully satisfy any damage awards or settlement. If this were to happen, the payment of any such awards could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations and financial position. Additionally, any such claims, whether or not successful, could damage our reputation and business. We are currently not a party to any legal proceedings. Leases Our commitments include payments related to operating leases. Approximate annual future minimum operating lease payments as of June 30, 2020 are as follows (in thousands): Year Operating Leases 2020 $ 512 2021 1,044 2022 661 2023 187 Total minimum lease payments: 2,404 Less: imputed interest (303) Total operating lease liabilities 2,101 The weighted-average remaining lease term of our operating leases is approximately 2.4 years. As of June 30, 2020, we had entered an additional lease for real estate that has not yet commenced with total minimum lease payments of approximately $23.1 million. This lease was expected to commence in the first quarter of 2021 and had a lease term of 10 years. In July 2020, we entered into the Lease Termination Agreement (as defined below) with respect to the lease. As consideration for the landlord’s agreement to enter into the Lease Termination Agreement and accelerate the expiration date of the term of the lease, we paid to the landlord a fee of approximately $0.9 million. |

We considered the impact of presenting a separate earnings per unit calculation for Class B common units. However, as earnings and losses are only allocable to Class B common units after the applicable threshold has been met, and such thresholds have not been met for earnings per unit purposes, no losses were allocated to Class B common units. The following common stock/Class A common unit equivalents have been excluded from the calculations of diluted net loss per common share/Class A common unit because their inclusion would be antidilutive (in thousands).

Related Party Disclosures | Related Party Disclosures On December 21, 2017, we acquired 17,307,692 shares of Series B preferred stock of Kalyra for a per share price of twenty-six cents ($0.26) or approximately $4.5 million. The management team and stockholders of Kalyra are also stockholders of the Company. Prior to the investment, we entered into a license agreement and a master services agreement with Kalyra. The license agreement was signed and commenced on December 31, 2014 for the exclusive rights to develop and commercialize products derived from Kalyra’s technology in the initial area of oncology. The license agreement and all rights were subsequently sold from Kalyra to Recurium IP Holdings, LLC (“Recurium IP”), an entity with common ownership to Kalyra prior to the Zentalis investment. Under the agreement, we have agreed to make payments to Recurium IP based on specific milestones and based on Recurium Equity, LLC’s equity ownership stake in us at the time the milestone is earned. Recurium Equity, LLC (“Recurium Equity”) is also an entity with common ownership to Kalyra prior to the Zentalis investment. In addition, the Company shall pay low to mid-single digit percentage royalties on net product sales to Recurium IP and sublicense fees on any consideration paid to us by a sublicensor. The royalty payments are also based on Recurium Equity’s then equity ownership in us. The license agreement will terminate upon the later of the last expiration of the patent rights or 15 years from the date of commencement. The Master Services Agreement was entered into in January 2015 and states that Kalyra may provide research and development services to us and that we shall reimburse such expenses on a time and materials basis based on the initial statements of work. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we did not incur any expense wth Kalyra. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we incurred approximately seventeen thousand and five thousand dollars of expense with Kalyra, respectively, that was eliminated in consolidation for research and development services provided. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, there was no balance due to Kalyra. We entered into an Intercompany Services Agreement with Kalyra in January 2018 which states that we may provide research and development services to Kalyra and that Kalyra shall reimburse such expenses on a time and materials basis. For each of the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we provided $0.1 million of research and development services to Kalyra that we eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, which are based on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and, as such, actual results may differ from management’s estimates. Though the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business and operating results presents additional uncertainty, we continue to use the best information available to inform our critical accounting estimates. |
