Revenue from Collaborative Arrangements

Viatris

In January 2015, the Company and Viatris Inc. (“Viatris”) established a strategic collaboration (the “Viatris Agreement”) for the development and commercialization of revefenacin, including YUPELRI^® (revefenacin) inhalation solution. The Company entered into the collaboration to expand the breadth of its revefenacin development program and extend its commercial reach beyond the acute care setting. In November 2018, YUPELRI was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) for the maintenance treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“COPD”).

In the US, Viatris is leading the commercialization of YUPELRI, and the Company co-promotes the product under a profit and loss sharing arrangement (65% to Viatris; 35% to Theravance Biopharma). Outside the US (including China and adjacent territories), Viatris is responsible for development and commercialization and will pay the Company a tiered royalty on net sales at percentage royalty rates ranging from low double-digits to mid-teens. Viatris is the principal in the sales transactions, and as a result, the Company does not reflect the product sales in its condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company is eligible to receive from Viatris potential global development, regulatory and sales milestone payments totaling up to $257.5 million in the aggregate, with $205.0 million associated with YUPELRI monotherapy, and $52.5 million associated with future potential combination products. Of the $205.0 million associated with monotherapy, $187.5 million relates to sales milestones based on achieving certain levels of net sales and $17.5 million relates to global development and regulatory actions. The $52.5 million associated with future potential combination products relates solely to development and regulatory actions.

The Viatris Agreement is considered to be within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements and partially within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as the parties are active participants and exposed to the risks and rewards of the collaborative activity with a unit of account provided to Viatris as a customer. Under the terms of the Viatris Agreement, which included the delivery by the Company of a license to Viatris to develop and commercialize revefenacin in exchange for $15.0 million received in 2015, Viatris was responsible for reimbursement of the Company’s costs related to the registrational program up until the approval of the first new drug application in November 2018; thereafter, R&D expenses are shared. Performing R&D services for reimbursement is considered a collaborative activity under the scope of ASC 808. Reimbursable program costs are recognized proportionately with the performance of the underlying services and accounted for as reductions to R&D expense. For this unit of account, the Company did not recognize revenue or analogize to ASC 606 and, as such, the reimbursable program costs are excluded from the transaction price. The Company determined the license to develop and commercialize revefenacin to be a unit of account and a separate performance obligation, for which Viatris is a customer, with the $15.0 million for the delivery of the license representing the transaction price.

The future potential milestone amounts for the Viatris Agreement were not included in the transaction price, as they were all determined to be fully constrained following the concepts of ASC 606. As part of the Company’s evaluation of the development and regulatory milestones constraint, the Company determined that the achievement of such milestones is contingent upon success in future clinical trials and regulatory approvals which are not within its control and uncertain at this stage. The Company expects that the sales-based milestone payments and royalty arrangements will be recognized when the sales occur or the milestone is achieved.

Following the FDA approval of YUPELRI in November 2018, net amounts payable to or receivable from Viatris each quarter under the profit-sharing structure are disaggregated according to their individual components. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, amounts receivable from Viatris in connection with the commercialization of YUPELRI are recorded within the condensed consolidated statements of operations as revenue from “Viatris collaboration agreement” irrespective of whether the overall collaboration is profitable. Amounts payable to Viatris, if any, in connection with the commercialization of YUPELRI are recorded within the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a collaboration loss within selling, general and administrative expenses. Any reimbursement from Viatris attributed to the 65% cost-sharing of the Company’s R&D expenses is characterized as a reduction of R&D

expense, as the Company does not consider performing research and development services for reimbursement to be a part of its ordinary activities. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, YUPELRI continued to be profitable for the Company.

The following YUPELRI-related amounts were recognized within revenue in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands)	2022		2021		2022		2021
Viatris collaboration agreement - Amounts receivable from Viatris	$	12,445	$	10,397	$	34,010	$	31,716

While Viatris records the total net sales of YUPELRI within its consolidated financial statements, Viatris collaboration agreement revenue includes the Company’s implied 35% share of net sales of YUPELRI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $18.7 million and $51.2 million, respectively, before deducting shared expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company’s implied 35% share of net sales of YUPELRI were $13.8 million and $41.3 million, respectively, before deducting shared expenses.

Other Collaborative Arrangement Revenues

The Company’s other collaborative arrangement revenues consisted of:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands)	2022		2021		2022		2021
Alfasigma	$	—	$	3	$	169	$	10

All of the recognized revenues from the Company’s other collaborative arrangements presented in the table above were included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the respective periods.

Janssen Biotech

In February 2018, the Company entered into a global co-development and commercialization agreement with Janssen Biotech, Inc. (“Janssen”) for izencitinib and related back-up compounds for inflammatory intestinal diseases, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease (the “Janssen Agreement”). The Company received an upfront payment of $100.0 million related to the Janssen Agreement. Following unfavorable Phase 3 clinical trial results for izencitinib announced in August 2021, Janssen terminated the Janssen Agreement effective January 16, 2022. As a result, the Company did not recognize any collaboration revenue related to the Janssen Agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $2.8 million and $8.6 million, respectively, in collaboration revenue related to the Janssen Agreement.

Reimbursement of R&D Expenses

As noted above, under certain collaborative arrangements the Company is entitled to reimbursement of certain R&D expenses. Activities under collaborative arrangements for which the Company is entitled to reimbursement are considered to be collaborative activities under the scope of ASC 808. For these units of account, the Company does not analogize to ASC 606 or recognize revenue. The Company records reimbursement payments received from its

collaboration partners as reductions to R&D expense.

The following table summarizes the reductions to R&D expense related to the reimbursement payments:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands)	2022		2021		2022		2021
Viatris	$	1,657	$	1,096	$	4,736	$	1,257
Janssen		—		2,205		—		4,730
Total reduction to R&D expense, net	$	1,657	$	3,301	$	4,736	$	5,987

Revenue from Licensing Arrangements

Pfizer

In December 2019, the Company entered into a global license agreement with Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”) for our preclinical skin-selective, locally-acting pan-JAK inhibitor program (the “Pfizer Agreement”). The compounds in this program are designed to target validated pro-inflammatory pathways and are specifically designed to possess skin-selective activity with minimal systemic exposure.

Under the Pfizer Agreement, Pfizer has an exclusive license to develop, manufacture and commercialize certain compounds for all uses other than gastrointestinal, ophthalmic, and respiratory applications. The Company received an upfront cash payment of $10.0 million in 2019, and in March 2022, the Company recognized $2.5 million in licensing revenue related to a development milestone payment from Pfizer for the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 1 clinical trial.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company is eligible to receive up to an additional $237.5 million in development and sales milestone payments from Pfizer. In addition, the Company is eligible to receive a tiered royalty on worldwide net sales of any potential products under the license at percentage royalty rates ranging from middle single-digits to low double-digits.
