Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or balance sheets.
License Agreements Contingent Milestone Payments
License Agreements Contingent Milestone Payments
The Company’s license agreements include specific development, regulatory, and clinical milestone payments that are payable upon the resolution of a contingency, such as upon the selection of a development candidate, first dosing of a human patient in clinical trials or receipt of the Food Drug and Administration’s (“FDA”) approval of a Spyre drug. The achievement of these milestone payments involves many factors outside of the Company’s control and therefore the associated likelihood cannot be considered probable until the
related contingency is resolved. Based on the preceding, the Company accrues each milestone payment upon the achievement of the applicable milestone event.
Recently Adopted and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.
Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03 to require more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net loss per share of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, and Series B Preferred Stock using the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and other participating securities.
The two-class method is an earnings (loss) allocation method under which earnings (loss) per share is calculated for each class of common stock. The Company has determined that the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock do not have preferential rights when compared to the Company's Common Stock and therefore it must allocate losses to these other classes of common stock, as illustrated in the table below.
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares and pre-funded warrants outstanding during the period, without consideration of potential dilutive securities. The pre-funded warrants are included in the computation of basic net loss per share as the exercise price is negligible and they are fully vested and exercisable. For periods in which the Company generated a net loss, the Company does not include potential shares of common stock in diluted net loss per share when the impact of these items is anti-dilutive. The Company has generated a net loss for all periods presented, therefore diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share since the inclusion of potential shares of common stock would be anti-dilutive.
