1.Organization and Description of Business

BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (“BridgeBio”) was established to identify and advance transformative medicines to treat patients who suffer from Mendelian diseases, which are diseases that arise from defects in a single gene, and cancers with clear genetic drivers. BridgeBio’s pipeline of programs ranges from early science to advanced clinical trials and its commercial organization is focused on delivering the company’s two approved therapies.

Since inception, BridgeBio has either created wholly-owned subsidiaries or made investments in certain controlled entities, including partially-owned subsidiaries for which BridgeBio has a majority voting interest, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which BridgeBio is the primary beneficiary (collectively, “we”, “our”, “us”). BridgeBio is headquartered in Palo Alto, California.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities, substantially all of which are denominated in U.S. dollars. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For consolidated entities where we own or are exposed to less than 100% of the economics, we record net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated statements of operations equal to the percentage of the economic or ownership interest retained in such entities by the respective noncontrolling parties.

In determining whether an entity is considered a controlled entity, we apply the VIE and voting interest entity (“VOE”) models. We assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on our power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and our obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Entities that do not qualify as a VIE are assessed for consolidation under the VOE model. Under the VOE model, BridgeBio consolidates the entity if it determines that it has a controlling financial interest in the entity through its ownership of greater than 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the entity and that other equity holders do not have substantive voting, participating or liquidation rights. We assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE or whether we have a majority voting interest for entities consolidated under the VOE model at the inception of the arrangement and at each reporting date.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, our results of operations and comprehensive loss, and our cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any other future annual or interim periods.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to conform to the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no net effect on cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities as previously reported.

Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, the novel strain of coronavirus that causes Coronavirus disease 19 (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. Since then, the resources of healthcare providers and hospitals have been focused on fighting the virus and any variants of the virus, and we have experienced delays in or temporary suspension of the enrollment of patients in our subsidiaries’ ongoing clinical trials. We additionally may experience delays in certain ongoing key program activities, including commencement of planned clinical trials, as well as non-clinical experiments and investigational new drug application-enabling good laboratory practice toxicology studies. The exact timing of delays and their overall impact on our business are currently unknown, and we are monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as it continues to evolve. We are continuing to actively monitor the situation and may take further precautionary and preemptive actions as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of public health and safety and that of our patient community, employees, partners, suppliers and stockholders. We cannot predict the effects that such actions, or the impact of COVID-19 on global business operations and economic conditions, may have on our business or strategy, including the effects on our ongoing and planned clinical development activities and prospects, or on our financial and operating results.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less from the purchase date to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in U.S. government money market funds.

Our restricted cash balance relates to cash and cash equivalents that we have pledged as collateral under certain lease agreements and letters of credit.

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 amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

	September 30, 2021		September 30, 2020
	(in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	180,347	$	366,967
Restricted cash — Included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”		176		—
Restricted cash — Included in “Other assets”		2,556		424
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the    condensed consolidated statements of cash flows	$	183,079	$	367,391

Investment in Equity Securities

Our investment in equity securities consists of equity securities of publicly held companies. We measure the fair value of our investment in equity securities at each reporting period in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments — Equity Securities. Changes in fair value resulting from observable price changes are included in “Other income (expense), net” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon sale of an equity security, any realized gain or loss is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

License Arrangements and Multiple-Element Arrangements

Revenue from non-refundable, upfront license or technology access payments under license arrangements that are not dependent on any future performance by us is recognized when control of the license is transferred to our customer and our customer is able to benefit from the license. If we have continuing obligations to perform under the arrangement, such fees are recognized over the estimated period of continuing performance obligation.

BRIDGEBIO PHARMA, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

When we enter into license agreements, we assess whether the arrangements fall within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808) based on whether the arrangements involve joint operating activities and whether both parties have active participation in the arrangement and are exposed to significant risks and rewards. To the extent that the arrangement falls within the scope of ASC 808, we assess whether the activities between us and our partner fall within the scope of other accounting literature. If we conclude that payments for activities from our partner to us represent consideration from a customer, such as license fees and contract manufacturing and research and development activities, we account for those elements within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. However, if we conclude that our partner is not a customer for certain activities and associated payments, such as for certain collaborative research, development, manufacturing and commercial activities, we present such payments as a reduction of research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, based on where we present the underlying expense. Additionally, if we reimburse our collaboration partners for these activities, we present such reimbursements as research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, depending upon the nature of the underlying expense.

If our collaborative arrangement provides for the sharing of profits and losses with our partner for commercialization activities, the treatment of our share in the profit-sharing structure depends on who the selling party is. If we are the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our collaboration partner’s share of profits as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses and our collaboration partner’s share of loss as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses. If our partner is the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our share of profits as collaboration revenue and our share of losses as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses.

Revenue Recognition

For elements of those arrangements that we determine should be accounted for under ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy our performance obligation. We apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer.

At inception of the arrangement, once it is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and then identify the performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation, on a relative standalone selling price basis, when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the standalone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. These key assumptions may include forecasted revenue or costs, development timelines, discount rates and probabilities of clinical and regulatory success.

License Fees: For arrangements that include a grant of a license to our intellectual property, we consider whether the license grant is distinct from the other performance obligations included in the arrangement. Generally, we would conclude that the license is distinct if the customer is able to benefit from the license with the resources available to it. For licenses that are distinct, we recognize revenues from nonrefundable, upfront license fees and other consideration allocated to the license when the license term has begun and we have provided all necessary information regarding the underlying intellectual property to the customer, which generally occurs at or near the inception of the arrangement. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, we determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time. If the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time, we use judgment in determining the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from the allocated transaction price. We evaluate the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjust the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.

Development and Regulatory Milestone Payments: At the inception of each arrangement that includes development and regulatory milestone payments, we evaluate whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimate the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within our or our collaboration partners control, such as non-operational developmental and regulatory approvals, are generally not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of achieving such development and regulatory milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjust our estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Sales-based Milestone Payments and Royalties: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the volume of sales, we will determine whether the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties or sales-based milestones relate and if such is the case, we will recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Product supply services: Arrangements that include a promise for the future supply of drug product for either clinical development or commercial supply at the licensee’s discretion are generally considered as options. We will assess if these options provide a material right to the licensee and if so, they are accounted for as separate performance obligations and recognized when the future goods or services related to the option are provided or the option expires.

Product Sales: Revenue is recognized when our customers obtain control of the product and revenue is adjusted to reflect discounts, chargebacks, rebates, returns and other allowances associated to the respective sales.

Milestone and Royalty Payments Under Asset Acquisitions

Under our asset acquisitions, we could be required to pay development, regulatory and sales-based milestone payments if certain substantive milestones are met. We generally expense development milestones as incurred. For regulatory or sales-based milestones that are associated with an approved asset, we capitalize the milestone payments related to the asset purchase as a finite-lived intangible asset provided that the milestone payment is recoverable based on our estimated projected cash flows or if the asset has alternative future use. Such intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis, beginning on the date the asset is acquired, which would generally be the regulatory approval date. We assess the carrying value of our finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets is measured by comparison of the carrying value of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate.

We could also be required to pay royalties based on actual net sales under in-licensing agreements and asset acquisitions. Such royalties are expensed in the period of sale of the product.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, accruals for research and development activities and contingent clinical, development, regulatory and sales-based milestone payments in our in-licensing agreements and asset acquisitions, the valuation of our stock-based awards, accruals for performance-based milestone compensation arrangements, accounting for stock-based award modifications, the present value of lease payments of our leases on the respective lease commencement dates, the expected recoverability and estimated useful lives of our long-lived assets, the fair value of the LianBio Warrants (see Note 7) and the fair value of the LEO call option liability (see Note 7). We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The guidance simplifies the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is either through a modified retrospective method or a full retrospective method of transition.

Effective January 1, 2021, we early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method with respect to our 2027 Notes. As a result of the adoption, we no longer separately account for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes by allocating the proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion options, or equity component; and, instead, account for our 2027 Notes wholly as debt. This also resulted in the derecognition of a deferred tax liability, which represented a basis difference in the face value of the 2027 Notes due to the previous allocation of portion of the proceeds to the equity component. Additionally, we recorded a cumulative adjustment to decrease our opening accumulated deficit balance as of January 1, 2021, representing a reduction in previously recorded interest expense accretion to the principal amount of our 2027 Notes through December 31, 2020. The following table summarizes the adjustments made to our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2021 as a result of applying the modified retrospective method in adopting ASU 2020-06:

	As Reported			Adjustments						As Adjusted
	December 31, 2020			Account 2027 Notes wholly as debt			Cumulative impact on interest expense			January 1, 2021
	(in thousands)
2027 Notes, net	$	383,436		$	169,173		$	(14,328	)	$	538,281
Other long-term liabilities (1)		9,520			(1,095	)	$	—			8,425
Additional paid-in capital		1,021,344			(168,078	)		—			853,266
Accumulated deficit		(888,755	)		—			14,328			(874,427	)

(1)Related deferred tax liability was recorded as part of “Other long-term liabilities.”

Under this transition method, we do not need to restate the comparative periods in transition and will continue to present financial information and disclosures for periods before January 1, 2021 in accordance with the pre-ASU 2020-06 guidance under ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options.

The adoption did not impact previously reported amounts in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows and our basic and diluted net loss per share amounts.

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the periods presented.

There are uncertainties on the fair value measurement of the instruments classified under Level 3 due to the use of unobservable inputs and interrelationships between these unobservable inputs, which could result in higher or lower fair value measurements.

Marketable Securities

The fair value of our marketable securities classified within Level 2 is based upon observable inputs that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications.

Investment in Equity Securities

We classify our investment in equity securities, which are currently equity securities of publicly held companies, within Level 1 as the fair values of these equity securities are derived from observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

LEO Call Option Liability

The valuation of the LEO call option contained unobservable inputs that reflected our own assumptions for which there was little, if any, market activity at the measurement date. Accordingly, the LEO call option liability was remeasured to fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs that were classified as Level 3 inputs. The uncertainty of the fair value measurement due to the use of unobservable inputs and interrelationships between these unobservable inputs could have resulted in higher or lower fair value measurement.

On March 30, 2021, LEO provided a notice of termination of the LEO call option effective April 15, 2021. As a result and based on the facts and circumstances that existed as of March 31, 2021, we evaluated that the likelihood of LEO exercising said option was remote and we remeasured the LEO call option liability to zero as of March 31, 2021. The following table sets forth a summary of the change in the estimated fair value of the LEO call option recorded in “Other income (expense), net”:

	Total
	(in thousands)
Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	5,550
Change in fair value upon notice of termination   of the LEO call option		(5,550	)
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	—

Historically, we estimated the fair value of the LEO call option by estimating the fair value of various clinical, regulatory, and sales milestones based on the estimated risk and probability of achievement of each milestone, and allocated the value using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions as of December 31, 2020:

	December 31,
	2020
Probability of milestone achievement	12.0%-84.0%
Discount rate	0.1%-14.3%
Expected term (in years)	1.25-6.25
Expected volatility	80.0%-95.0%
Risk-free interest rate	1.16%-1.53%
Dividend yield	—

Eidos Embedded Derivative Liability in Loan Agreement

For the SVB and Hercules Loan entered into in November 2019 and prepaid in April 2021 (see Note 9), Eidos determined that the requirement to pay a fee upon certain events (“Success Fee”) is an embedded derivative liability to be measured at fair value. The fair value of the derivative was determined based on an income approach that identified the cash flows using a “with-and-without” valuation methodology. The inputs used to determine the estimated fair value of the derivative instrument were based primarily on the probability of an underlying event triggering the embedded derivative occurring and the timing of such event. The Success Fee survives the prepayment of the SVB and Hercules Loan per the terms of the contract; and, therefore, we continue to carry the embedded derivative liability at its fair value until it is settled or it expires.

Notes

The fair values of our 2.25% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and our 2.50% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) (collectively, the “Notes”, see Note 9), which differ from their respective carrying values, are determined by prices for the Notes observed in market trading. The market for trading of the Notes is not considered to be an active market and therefore the estimate of fair value is based on Level 2 inputs. As of September 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of our 2029 Notes and 2027 Notes, which have aggregate face values of $747.5 million and $550.0 million, respectively, were $647.7 million and $759.8 million, respectively, based on their market prices on the last trading day for the period. As of December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes was $997.9 million based on the market price on the last trading day for the period.

Term Loans

The fair value of our outstanding term loans (see Note 9) is estimated using the net present value of the payments, discounted at an interest rate that is consistent with a market interest rate, which is a Level 2 input. The estimated fair value of our outstanding term loans approximates the carrying amount, as the term loans bear a floating rate that approximates the market interest rate.

4.Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

We invest in certain U.S. government money market funds classified as cash equivalents. The marketable securities consist of high investment grade fixed income securities that are primarily invested in commercial paper, corporate bonds, and U.S. government securities.

Cash equivalents and marketable securities classified as available-for-sale consisted of the following:

There have been no significant realized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities for the periods presented. There were no available-for-sale securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. As of September 30, 2021, our short-term marketable securities have average contractual maturities of approximately seven months. We believe that we have the ability to realize the full value of all of these investments upon their respective maturities.

5.Eidos

From the date of BridgeBio’s initial investment until June 22, 2018, the Eidos initial public offering (“IPO”) closing date, Eidos was determined to be a VIE and BridgeBio consolidated Eidos as the primary beneficiary. Subsequent to the Eidos IPO, BridgeBio determined that Eidos was no longer a VIE due to its having sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. From June 22, 2018 through January 26, 2021, BridgeBio determined that it held greater than 50% of the voting shares of Eidos and there were no other parties with substantive participating, liquidation or kick-out rights. BridgeBio consolidated Eidos under the VOE model until January 26, 2021, the date on which the Merger Transactions (as defined below) were consummated.

On August 2, 2019, Eidos filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “2019 Shelf”) with the SEC in relation to the registration of common stock, preferred stock, warrants and units of any combination thereof. Eidos also simultaneously entered into an Open Market Sale AgreementSM with Jefferies LLC and SVB Leerink LLC (collectively, the “Eidos Sales Agents”), to provide for the offering, issuance and sale by Eidos of up to an aggregate offering price of $100.0 million of its common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings under the 2019 Shelf and subject to the limitations thereof (the “2019 Sales Agreement”). Eidos would pay to the applicable Eidos Sales Agent cash commissions of up to 3.0 percent of the gross proceeds of sales of common stock under the 2019 Sales Agreement. Eidos issued 448,755 shares under this offering and received $24.1 million of net proceeds in February 2020.

On October 5, 2020, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Eidos, Globe Merger Sub I, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Globe Merger Sub II, Inc. (the two latter companies being our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries), providing for, in a series of merger transactions (the “Merger Transactions”), the acquisition by us of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Eidos (the “Eidos Common Stock”) other than shares of Eidos Common Stock that (i) were owned by Eidos as treasury stock, (ii) were owned by us and our subsidiaries and, in each case, not owned on behalf of third parties and (iii) were subject to an Eidos Restricted Share Award (as defined below). Under the Merger Agreement, the stockholders of Eidos had the right to receive, at their election, either 1.85 shares of our common stock or $73.26 in cash per Eidos share in the transaction, subject to proration as necessary to ensure that the aggregate amount of cash consideration was no greater than $175.0 million. In addition, immediately prior to the effective time of the merger of Merger Sub with and into Eidos (the “Effective Time”), (i) each option to purchase Eidos Common Stock (an “Eidos Option”) were to be converted into an option, on the same terms and conditions applicable to such Eidos Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, to purchase a specified number of shares of BridgeBio common stock, calculated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and (ii) each outstanding award of shares of Eidos Common Stock that was subject to forfeiture conditions (subject to certain exceptions) (each, an “Eidos Restricted Share Award”) was to be converted into an award, on the same terms and conditions applicable to such Eidos Restricted Share Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, covering a number of whole restricted shares of BridgeBio common stock, calculated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, with any fractional shares being paid out to the holder of such Eidos Restricted Share Award in cash (conversion of the Eidos Option and the Eidos Restricted Share Awards collectively referred to as the “Eidos Awards Exchange”).

On January 19, 2021, the stockholders of each of BridgeBio and Eidos voted to approve all proposals related to the Merger Transactions and on January 26, 2021, we closed and completed the Merger Transactions. The acquisition of the Eidos Common Stock was settled through an aggregate consideration of $1,651.6 million, which was comprised of cash payments of $21.3 million and the issuance of approximately 26,156,446 shares of our common stock, with a total fair value of $1,630.3 million. We accounted for the purchase of the outstanding Eidos Common Stock as acquisition of noncontrolling interest in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). Under ASC 810, the carrying amount of the Eidos noncontrolling interest was adjusted to reflect the change in our ownership interest, and the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid, and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest was adjusted was recognized in equity. Such difference recognized in equity amounted to $(1,613.4) million and recorded within “Additional paid-in capital” during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We continued to recognize the assets and liabilities of Eidos at their respective historical values as of the closing date of the Merger Transactions.

Through the closing of the Merger Transactions, we have incurred transaction costs aggregating $70.7 million that were recorded in “Additional paid-in capital” during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Upon closing and completion of the Merger Transactions with Eidos, Eidos became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Eidos’ common stock ceased to trade on The Nasdaq Global Select Market prior to the opening of business on January 26, 2021 and Eidos’ Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act was filed with the SEC on February 5, 2021.

6.Noncontrolling Interests

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had both redeemable convertible noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in consolidated partially-owned entities, for which BridgeBio has a majority voting interest under the VOE model and for which BridgeBio is the primary beneficiary under the VIE model. These balances are reported as separate components outside stockholders’ equity (deficit) in “Redeemable convertible noncontrolling interests” and as part of stockholders’ equity (deficit) in “Noncontrolling interests” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We adjust the carrying value of noncontrolling interests to reflect the book value attributable to noncontrolling shareholders of consolidated partially-owned entities when there is a change in the ownership during the respective reporting period and such adjustments are recorded to additional paid-in capital. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the adjustments in the aggregate amounted to $(0.5) million and $(0.2) million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the adjustments in the aggregate amounted to $1.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively. All such adjustments are disclosed within the “Transfers from (to) noncontrolling interests” line item in the condensed consolidated statements of redeemable convertible noncontrolling interests and stockholders’ equity (deficit).

As of December 31, 2020, the significant components of the noncontrolling interest balances pertained mainly to Eidos, which amounted to $40.2 million. Upon closing and completion of the Merger Transactions with Eidos on January 26, 2021 (see Note 5), the balance of the noncontrolling interest in Eidos was reduced to zero.

7.Equity Method and Other Investments in Equity Method Investees

LianBio

LianBio, a related party, is a global and science-driven biopharmaceutical company founded by Perceptive Advisors. LianBio is focused on sourcing the best opportunities and creating new therapeutic paradigms for first-in-class programs to bring the world’s leading science to Greater China and major Asian markets. In October 2019, BBP LLC entered into an exclusivity agreement with LianBio, pursuant to which BBP LLC received equity in LianBio representing a 10% ownership interest, valued at approximately $3.8 million at the time of the transaction. The equity interest was issued in consideration for certain rights of first negotiation and rights of first offer granted by BBP LLC to LianBio with respect to specified transactions covering intellectual property rights owned or controlled by BBP LLC or its affiliates in certain territories outside the United States. The equity interest gave BBP LLC the right to appoint or remove one director to the board of directors of LianBio. This right will terminate in the event that LianBio consummates an IPO.

Our 10% ownership interest was reduced to zero as of December 31, 2019 after recognizing our equity share in the net losses of LianBio for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our equity method investment in LianBio represented approximately 6% of LianBio’s fully-diluted equity. We continue to account for our investment in LianBio under the equity method as we have the right to appoint or remove one director to the board of directors of LianBio, and therefore have significant influence over LianBio. The carrying amount of the investment in LianBio in the condensed consolidated balance sheets represents our maximum loss exposure related to our investment in LianBio. There were no impairments related to the LianBio investment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Pursuant to a License Agreement entered into in October 2019 between QED Therapeutics, Inc. (“QED”) and LianBio, QED also received warrants which entitle QED to purchase 10% of the then-fully diluted shares of one of the subsidiaries of LianBio upon achievement of certain contingent development milestones.

In October 2021, the warrants held by QED to purchase shares of one of the subsidiaries of LianBio were converted into a warrant to purchase 347,569 shares of LianBio. On November 1, 2021, LianBio completed its IPO and, as a result, BBP LLC’s ownership in LianBio was reduced to approximately 4.7% of LianBio’s equity.

PellePharm

On November 19, 2018, PellePharm, Inc. entered into the LEO Agreement, pursuant to which LEO Pharma (“LEO”) was granted an exclusive, irrevocable option to acquire PellePharm. The LEO call option was exercisable by LEO on or before the occurrence of certain events relating to PellePharm’s clinical development programs and no later than July 30, 2021. We accounted for the LEO call option as a current liability (the “LEO Call Option Liability”, see Note 3) in our condensed consolidated financial statements because BridgeBio was obligated to sell its shares in PellePharm to LEO at a pre-determined price, if the option were to be exercised. We remeasured the LEO call option to fair value at each subsequent balance sheet date until the LEO call option either was exercised, terminated or had expired.

Prior to the LEO Agreement, BridgeBio consolidated PellePharm under the VIE model. The date the LEO Agreement was entered into was determined to be a VIE reconsideration event. Based on our assessment, we had concluded that PellePharm remained a VIE after the reconsideration event as it did not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. However, based on the then changes to PellePharm’s governance structure and board of directors composition as a result of the LEO Agreement, BridgeBio was no longer the primary beneficiary as it no longer had the power over the key decisions that most significantly impact PellePharm’s economic performance. Accordingly, BridgeBio deconsolidated PellePharm on November 19, 2018. After the deconsolidation in November 2018, PellePharm was considered a related party of BridgeBio.

Subsequent to the deconsolidation of PellePharm in 2018, we accounted for our retained common stock investment as an equity method investment and our retained preferred stock investment as a cost method investment. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-01 in 2019, we accounted for the investment in PellePharm preferred stock as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. As of December 31, 2020, the aggregate carrying amount of our investments in PellePharm was zero. After the equity method investment was reduced to zero during the three months ended March 31, 2019, BridgeBio subsequently recorded its percentage of net losses consistent with its preferred stock ownership percentage of 61.9% until the equity security investment was also reduced to zero during the remaining period of 2019. The carrying amount of BridgeBio’s investment in PellePharm in the condensed consolidated balance sheets through March 31, 2021 represented its maximum loss exposure related to its VIE investment in PellePharm. There were no impairments related to our PellePharm investment through March 31, 2021.

LEO terminated the LEO Agreement effective as of April 15, 2021. The date the LEO Agreement was terminated was determined to be a VIE reconsideration event. Based on our assessment, we continue to conclude that PellePharm remains a VIE after the reconsideration event as it does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. Based on the changes to PellePharm’s board of directors composition as a result of the termination of the LEO Agreement, BridgeBio became the primary beneficiary as it has the power over the key decisions that most significantly impact PellePharm’s economic performance and it has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from PellePharm that could potentially be significant to PellePharm through its common and preferred stock interest in PellePharm. Accordingly, BridgeBio consolidated PellePharm effective on April 15, 2021.

8.Commitments and Contingencies

Milestone Compensation Arrangements

We have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants, whose vesting is contingent upon meeting various milestones, with fixed monetary amounts known at inception that can be settled in the form of cash or equity at our sole discretion. We also have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants as part of the 2020 Stock and Equity Award Exchange Program (the “Exchange Program”, see Note 15). The compensation arrangements under the Exchange Program are to be settled in the form of equity only. Performance-based milestone awards that are settled in the form of equity are satisfied in the form of fully-vested restricted stock awards (“RSAs”). We accrue for such contingent compensation when the related milestone is probable of achievement and is recorded in “Accrued compensation and benefits” for the current portion and in “Other long-term liabilities” for the noncurrent portion in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. There is no accrued compensation expense for performance-based milestone awards that are assessed to be not probable of achievement. The table below shows our commitment for the potential milestone amounts and the accruals for milestones deemed probable of achievement as of September 30, 2021.

	Potential Fixed Monetary Amount		Accrued Amount (1)
Settlement Type	(in thousands)
Cash	$	10,799	$	985
Stock (2)		121,128		11,973
Cash or stock at our sole discretion		108,928		3,949
Total	$	240,855	$	16,907

(1)Amount recorded for performance-based milestone awards that are probable of achievement.

(2)Includes the performance-based milestone awards that were granted as part of the Exchange Program further discussed in Note 15.

Other Research and Development and Commercial Agreements

We may also enter into contracts in the normal course of business with clinical research organizations for clinical trials, with contract manufacturing organizations for clinical supplies and with other vendors for preclinical studies, supplies and other services and products for commercial and operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice with potential termination charges. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no material amounts accrued related to termination charges.

Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, board members, officers and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by us, our negligence or willful misconduct, violations of law, or intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees that will require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees. No material demands have been made upon us to provide indemnification under such agreements, and thus, there are no claims that we are aware of that could have a material effect on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss, or statements of cash flows.

We also maintain director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from our obligation to indemnify our directors. To date, we have not incurred any material costs and have not accrued any liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of these provisions.

Contingencies

From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

9.Debt

Notes

2029 Notes

On January 28, 2021, we issued an aggregate of $717.5 million principal amount of our 2029 Notes pursuant to an Indenture dated January 28, 2021 (the “2029 Notes Indenture”), between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “2029 Notes Trustee”), in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers (the “2021 Note Offering”) pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The 2029 Notes issued in the 2021 Note Offering include $67.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes sold to the initial purchasers (the “2029 Notes Initial Purchasers”) pursuant to the exercise in part of the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers’ option to purchase $97.5 million principal amount of additional 2029 Notes. On January 28, 2021, the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers exercised the remaining portion of their option to purchase $30.0 million principal amount of additional 2029 Notes. The sale of those additional 2029 Notes closed on February 2, 2021.

The 2029 Notes will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2021, at a rate of 2.25% per year. The 2029 Notes will mature on February 1, 2029, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2029 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of BridgeBio’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of BridgeBio’s common stock, at our election.

We received net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering of approximately $731.4 million, after deducting the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers’ discount (there were no direct offering expenses borne by us for the 2029 Notes). We used approximately $61.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering to pay for the cost of the 2021 Capped Call Transactions described below and approximately $50.0 million to pay for the repurchase of shares of BridgeBio common stock described below. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include research and development and clinical development costs to support the advancement of our drug candidates, including the continued growth of our commercial and medical affairs capabilities, the conduct of clinical trials and preclinical research and development activities; working capital; capital expenditures; repayment of outstanding indebtedness; general and administrative expenses; and other general corporate purposes.

A holder of 2029 Notes may convert all or any portion of its 2029 Notes at its option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding November 1, 2028 in multiples of $1,000 only under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2021 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the “trading price” (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

If we call such notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture.

On or after November 1, 2028 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, a holder may convert all or any portion of its 2029 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing.

The conversion rate will initially be 10.3050 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $97.04 per share of BridgeBio’s common stock, for a total of approximately 7,702,988 shares).

21

BRIDGEBIO PHARMA, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or if we deliver a notice of redemption, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2029 Notes in connection with such a corporate event. The maximum number of shares issuable should there be an increase in the conversion rate is 11,361,851 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock.

We may not redeem the 2029 Notes prior to February 6, 2026. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2029 Notes, at our option, on a redemption date occurring on or after February 6, 2026 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, under certain circumstances. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2029 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2029 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the 2029 Notes Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the Notes plus accrued special interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable. The 2029 Notes are our general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2029 Notes; equal in right of payment with all of our liabilities that are not so subordinated, including our 2027 Notes; effectively junior to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Notes, we incurred approximately $16.1 million of debt issuance costs, which consisted of initial purchasers’ discounts. This was recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2029 Notes or approximately their eight-year term.

2027 Notes

On March 9, 2020, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $550.0 million of our 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), pursuant to an Indenture dated March 9, 2020 (the “2027 Notes Indenture”), between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “2027 Notes Trustee”), in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers (the “2020 Note Offering”) pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 2027 Notes issued in the 2020 Note Offering include $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes sold to the initial purchasers (the “2027 Notes Initial Purchasers”) resulting from the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional 2027 Notes.

The 2027 Notes will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2020, at a rate of 2.50% per year. The 2027 Notes will mature on March 15, 2027, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The 2027 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of BridgeBio’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of BridgeBio’s common stock, at our election.

We received net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering of approximately $537.0 million, after deducting the 2027 Notes Initial Purchasers’ discount and offering expenses. We used approximately $49.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering to pay for the cost of the 2020 Capped Call Transactions described below, and approximately $75.0 million to pay for the repurchase of shares of BridgeBio common stock described below. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including for its commercial organization and launch preparations. We may also use any remaining net proceeds to fund possible acquisitions of, or investments in, complementary businesses, products, services and technologies.

A holder of 2027 Notes may convert all or any portion of its 2027 Notes at its option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2026 in multiples of $1,000 only under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day (the “Conversion Price Condition”);

22

BRIDGEBIO PHARMA, INC.

(Unaudited)

During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the “trading price” (as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day (the “Conversion Rate Condition”); or

Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture.

On or after December 15, 2026 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, a holder may convert all or any portion of its 2027 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing.

During each of the calendar quarters ending March 31 and June 30, 2021, the 2027 Notes were eligible for conversion at the option of the holders as the Conversion Price Condition was met during the period.

The conversion rate will initially be 23.4151 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $42.71 per share of BridgeBio’s common stock, for a total of approximately 12,878,305 shares). Based on the closing price of our common stock on September 30, 2021, the if-converted value of the 2027 Notes exceeded its principal amount by approximately $53.6 million.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2027 Notes in connection with such a corporate event. The maximum number of shares issuable should there be an increase in the conversion rate is 17,707,635 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock.

We may not redeem the 2027 Notes prior to the maturity date, and no sinking fund is provided for the 2027 Notes. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2027 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2027 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the 2027 Notes Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the 2027 Notes plus accrued special interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable. The 2027 Notes are our general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2027 Notes; equal in right of payment with all of BridgeBio’s liabilities that are not so subordinated, including our 2029 Notes; effectively junior to any of BridgeBio’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

In accounting for the issuance of the 2027 Notes in 2020 under ASC 470-20, we separately accounted for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes by allocating the proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion options, or equity component, due to our ability to settle the 2027 Notes in cash, BridgeBio common stock, or a combination of cash and BridgeBio common stock at our option. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The allocation was performed in a manner that reflected BridgeBio’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate for similar debt. The equity component of the 2027 Notes was recognized as a debt discount and represented the difference between the gross proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Notes and the fair value of the liability of the 2027 Notes on the date of issuance. The equity component would not be remeasured as long as it continued to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In connection with the issuance of the 2027 Notes, we incurred approximately $13.0 million of debt issuance costs, which primarily consisted of initial purchasers’ discounts and legal and other professional fees. We allocated these costs to the liability and equity components based on the allocation of the proceeds. The portion of these costs allocated to the equity component totaling approximately $4.1 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in 2020. The portion of these costs allocated to the liability component totaling approximately $8.9 million was recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and was amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2027 Notes or approximately their seven-year term.

As discussed in Note 2, effective January 1, 2021, we early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method and, as a result, we are no longer required to separately account for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes, and, instead, account for our 2027 Notes wholly as debt. Comparative information with respect to our 2027 Notes disclosed below continue to be presented in accordance with the pre-ASU 2020-06 guidance under ASC 470-20.

Capped Call and Share Repurchase Transactions with Respect to the Notes

On each of January 25, 2021 and March 4, 2020, concurrently with the pricing of the 2029 Notes and 2027 Notes, respectively, we entered into separate privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “2021 Capped Call Transactions” and the “2020 Capped Call Transactions”, respectively, together the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions (the “Capped Call Counterparties”). We used approximately $61.3 million and $49.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering and 2020 Note Offering, respectively, to pay for the cost of the respective Capped Call Transactions. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to BridgeBio’s common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap initially equal to $131.58 for the 2021 Capped Call Transactions and $62.12 for the 2020 Capped Call Transactions (both of which represented a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock on the date of the Capped Call Transactions) and are subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. The 2021 Capped Calls and 2020 Capped Calls cover 7,702,988 shares and 12,878,305 shares, respectively, of our common stock (subject to anti-dilution and certain other adjustments), which are the same number of shares of common stock that initially underlie the Notes. The 2021 Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $97.04 per share, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2029 Notes. The 2020 Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $42.71 per share, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2027 Notes. The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions, entered into by us with the Capped Call Counterparties, and are not part of the terms of the Notes.

These Capped Call instruments meet the conditions outlined in ASC 815-40 to be classified in stockholders’ equity and are not subsequently remeasured as long as the conditions for equity classification continue to be met. We recorded a reduction to additional paid-in capital of approximately $61.3 million and $49.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the premium payments for the Capped Call Transactions.

Additionally, we used approximately $50.0 million and $75.0 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering and 2020 Note Offering to repurchase 759,993 shares and 2,414,681 shares, respectively, of our common stock concurrently with the closing of the Note Offerings from certain of the Notes’ Initial Purchasers in privately negotiated transactions. The agreed purchase price per share of common stock in the repurchases were $65.79 and $31.06, which were the last reported sale prices per share of our common stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) on January 25, 2021 and March 4, 2020, respectively. The shares repurchased were recorded as treasury stock.

Term Loans

Hercules Loan and Security Agreement

We have a Loan and Security Agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”) under which we borrowed principal amounts of $35.0 million (“Tranche I”), $20.0 million (“Tranche II”), $20.0 million (“Tranche III”) and $25.0 million (“Tranche IV”), all of which remain outstanding. The Loan and Security Agreement has been amended from time to time.

In March 2020, we executed the Third Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement primarily to allow us to issue our 2027 Notes and to enter into the Capped Call and Share Repurchase Transactions.

In April 2020, we entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, extended the interest-only period and maturity date of the term loans, provided for certain interest rate reduction and increased the available loan facilities under the Loan and Security Agreement. There were no gains or losses arising from the amendment, which is considered a debt modification.

In January 2021, we executed the Fifth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement primarily to allow us to issue our 2029 Notes and to enter into the related 2021 Capped Call and share repurchase transactions.

In April 2021, we executed the Sixth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Hercules Term Loan”), which, among other things:

(1)provided for an additional principal borrowing amounting to $25.0 million (the proceeds of which were received by us as the Tranche IV upon the execution of the Amended Hercules Term Loan);

(2)extended the interest-only period under the Loan and Security Agreement to June 1, 2024 (the “Amended Amortization Date”) which may be further extended to June 1, 2025, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan;

(3)extended the maturity date for the term loans under the Loan and Security Agreement to May 1, 2025, which may be further extended to May 1, 2026, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan;

(4)provided for an interest rate on the outstanding principal balance equal to the greater of (x) a floating interest rate linked to the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 4.40% and (y) 7.65% (7.65% as of September 30, 2021), payable monthly; and

(5)provided for additional available facilities aggregating to $185.0 million, which comprises of: (a) an additional incremental loan in the amount of $70.0 million, available no later than June 15, 2022, (b) an additional incremental loan following the achievement of certain performance milestones in the amount of $40.0 million, available no later than September 15, 2022, and (c) an additional $75.0 million discretionary incremental tranche, subject to Hercules’ approval in its sole and absolute discretion, available no later than December 15, 2023.

The Amended Hercules Term Loan also provides us with greater flexibility to incur additional convertible debt and repurchase and/or redeem convertible debt, each subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan. There have not been any additional draws on the $185.0 million additional available facilities as of September 30, 2021. There were no gains or losses arising from the Amended Hercules Term Loan, which is considered a debt modification.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized interest expense related to the Amended Hercules Term Loan of $2.5 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of which $0.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, relate to amortization of debt discount and issuance costs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized interest expense related to the Hercules Term Loan of $2.0 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of which $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, relate to amortization of debt discount and issuance costs.

Silicon Valley Bank and Hercules Loan Agreement

Eidos entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and Hercules Capital, Inc. (the “SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement”), under which Eidos borrowed a principal amount of $17.5 million (the “Tranche A loan”) in November 2019. The Tranche A loan was subject to an interest rate equal to the greater of either (i) 8.50% or (ii) 3.25% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal (8.50% during the relevant period in 2021) and had an original maturity date of October 2, 2023.

The Tranche A loan also provided for a final payment charge equal to 5.95% multiplied by the amount funded to be paid when the loan becomes due or upon prepayment of the facility. If Eidos elected to prepay the Tranche A loan, there was also a prepayment fee of between 0.75% and 2.50% of the principal amount being prepaid depending on the timing and circumstances of prepayment. The Tranche A loan was secured by substantially all of Eidos’ assets, except Eidos’ intellectual property, which was the subject of a negative pledge.

In January 2021, Eidos entered into an amendment to the SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement primarily to allow Eidos to enter into the Merger Transactions. The amendment also required Eidos to maintain a certain amount of cash and cash equivalents with SVB.

The Tranche A loan was prepaid in full in April 2021 using a portion of the proceeds from Tranche IV under the Amended Hercules Term Loan discussed above. Loss on prepayment of the Tranche A loan recognized by Eidos was not material. Interest expense on the Tranche A loan was not material in 2021 through the prepayment date, as well as for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

10.License and Collaboration Agreement with Helsinn

On March 29, 2021, QED entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Helsinn Healthcare S.A. (“HHC”) and Helsinn Therapeutics (U.S.), Inc. (“HTU”, collectively with HHC, “Helsinn,” and together with QED, the “Parties”) (the “QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement”), pursuant to which QED granted to HHC exclusive licenses to develop, manufacture and commercialize QED’s product candidate, infigratinib, in oncology and all other indications except achondroplasia or any other skeletal dysplasias, worldwide, except for the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong and Macau (“Greater China”), and under which QED will receive a co-exclusive license to co-commercialize infigratinib in the United States in the licensed indications. Under this agreement, Helsinn is likewise entitled to a right of first negotiation with respect to specific territories subject to the occurrence of a contingent event. As part of this agreement, QED is also required to transfer inventory within the transitional period, as described in the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement. The effectiveness of the transactions contemplated under this agreement was subject to specified conditions, including the expiration or early termination of any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”). The waiting period under the HSR Act ended on April 16, 2021 and the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement became effective as of that date.

Under the terms of the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement, QED is eligible to receive payments totaling up to approximately $2.45 billion in the aggregate, including over $100.0 million in upfront, regulatory and launch milestone payments, and the remainder subject to the achievement of specified commercial milestones, as well as tiered royalties in the high teens as a percentage of adjusted net sales by Helsinn of the licensed products sold worldwide, outside of the United States and Greater China. Upon approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), QED and HTU will co-commercialize infigratinib in the licensed indications in the United States and will share profits and losses on a 50:50 basis. In May 2021, we received such FDA approval for an oncology indication in the United States and effective as of that date, sharing of profits and losses commenced. QED and Helsinn will share global, excluding Greater China, research and development costs for infigratinib in the licensed indications at a rate of 40% for QED and 60% for Helsinn.

The QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement is considered to be within the scope of ASC 808 as the parties are active participants and are exposed to the risks and rewards of the collaborative activity, and partially within the scope of ASC 606, for the units of account that Helsinn is identified as a customer. For the units of account in the collaboration arrangement that do not represent a vendor-customer relationship, including the performance of research and development and commercialization services, we determined that ASC 606 is not appropriate to apply by analogy and applied a reasonable and rational accounting policy election that faithfully depicts the transfer of services to the collaboration partner over the estimated performance period. Reimbursement payments from Helsinn associated with profit and cost sharing provisions are recognized as the related expense is incurred and classified as an offset to the underlying expense and excluded from the transaction price.

We evaluated the terms of the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement and identified Helsinn as a customer with the following two distinct performance obligations: (1) exclusive licenses to develop, manufacture, and commercialize the underlying product, and (2) transfer of inventory within the transitional supply period.

We consider the future potential regulatory and launch milestones to be variable consideration. We constrain variable consideration to the extent that it is not probable that it will result in a significant revenue reversal when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. We recognize consideration relating to sales-based milestones and royalties when the subsequent sales occur.

We determined the initial transaction price for the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement to be $46.0 million, comprising of $20.0 million nonrefundable upfront license fee, $1.0 million for sale of certain existing inventory, and $25.0 million milestone for the first launch of the first indication of infigratinib in the U.S.

(Unaudited)

The remaining future potential milestone payments were not included in the transaction price as they were determined to be fully constrained under ASC 606. We determined that the achievement of such regulatory and launch milestones are contingent upon success in future clinical trials and regulatory approvals, which are not within our control and are uncertain at this stage. We expect that the royalty arrangements and commercial-based milestones will be recognized when the sales occur or the milestones are achieved pursuant to the sales-based royalty exception under ASC 606-10-55-65 because the license is the predominant item to which the royalties or commercial-based milestones relate. We will re-evaluate the transaction price at each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur.

Based on the distinct performance obligations under the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement, we allocated the $46.0 million transaction price based on relative stand-alone selling prices of each of our performance obligations as $44.4 million for the licenses and $1.6 million for the transfer of inventory. For the delivery of the licenses, we based the stand-alone selling price on a discounted cash flow approach and considered several factors including, but not limited to, forecasted revenue and costs, development timelines, discount rate and probabilities of clinical and regulatory success. For the transfer of inventory, we based the stand-alone selling price on the actual costs incurred by us to purchase or manufacture the inventory as well as the average compensation of employees estimated to be incurred over the performance period.

As of September 30, 2021, we have provided all necessary information to Helsinn for it to benefit from the license under the license term and have completed the transfer of inventory. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $1.6 million and $46.0 million, respectively, in license revenue under these units of account accounted for under ASC 606. There were no outstanding receivables from Helsinn related to these units of accounts as of September 30, 2021.

For the unit of account that is within the scope of ASC 808 relating to research and development costs, we have recognized Helsinn’s share of research and development expenses of $9.6 million and $28.2 million as a reduction of research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Total receivables from Helsinn relating to this unit of account accounted for under ASC 808 amounted to $7.7 million as of September 30, 2021 and are shown as part of “Receivable from licensing and collaboration agreements” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Following the FDA approval of TRUSELTIQTM (infigratinib) in May 2021, we accounted for Helsinn’s share of the co-commercialization loss of $2.6 million and $6.8 million as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

11.License Agreement Between Navire and LianBio

In August 2020, our subsidiary Navire Pharma, Inc. (“Navire”) entered into an exclusive license agreement with LianBio (the “Navire-LianBio License Agreement”). Pursuant to the Navire-LianBio License Agreement, Navire granted to LianBio an exclusive, sublicensable license under the licensed patent rights and know-how to develop, manufacture and commercialize SHP2 inhibitor BBP-398 (“BBP-398”), for tumors driven by RAS and receptor tyrosine kinase mutations. Under the terms of the Navire-LianBio License Agreement, LianBio will receive commercial rights in China and selected Asian markets and participate in clinical development activities for BBP-398. In consideration for the rights granted to LianBio, we received a nonrefundable $8.0 million upfront payment in 2020, which we recognized as license revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. We will also have the right to receive future development and sales milestone payments of up to $382.1 million, and tiered royalty payments from single-digit to low-teens on net sales of the product in licensed territories. We recognized $8.5 million in license revenue, representing a regulatory milestone payment, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. There was no license revenue recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2021 under this agreement.

12.Asset Acquisitions, In-licensing and Other Agreements

Novartis License Agreement

In January 2018, QED entered into a License Agreement with Novartis International Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“Novartis”), pursuant to which QED acquired certain intellectual property rights, including patents and know-how, related to infigratinib for the treatment of patients with FGFR-driven diseases. QED accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the estimated fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identified asset, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test in ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were measured based on their fair values. The fair value of the IPR&D acquired was charged to research and development expense as it had no alternative future use at the time of the acquisition.

If certain substantial milestones are met, QED could be required to pay up to $60.0 million in regulatory milestone payments, $35.0 million in sales-based milestone payments, and pay royalties of up to low double-digit percentages on net sales. Following the FDA approval of TRUSELTIQ in May 2021, we paid a one-time regulatory milestone payment to Novartis of $20.0 million. We capitalized such payment as a finite-lived intangible asset and amortize the amount over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis.

Asset Purchase Agreement with Alexion

In June 2018, our subsidiary Origin Biosciences, Inc. (“Origin”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Alexion Pharma Holding Unlimited Company (“Alexion”) to acquire intellectual property rights, including patent rights, know-how, and contracts, related to the ALXN1101 molecule. Origin accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the estimated fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identified asset, IPR&D, thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test in ASU 2017-01. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were measured based on their fair values. The fair value of the IPR&D acquired was charged to research and development expense as it had no alternative future use at the time of the acquisition.

Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, Origin could be required to pay up to $18.8 million if a certain condition is met. Such a condition was met in 2021, resulting in a one-time final payment of $15.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021, which we capitalized as a finite-lived intangible asset and amortize it over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis. In addition, under the Asset Purchase Agreement, Origin could be required to pay up to $17.0 million in sales-based milestone payments and royalties of up to low double-digit percentages on net sales.

Diagnostics Agreement with Foundation Medicine

In November 2018, QED and Foundation Medicine, Inc. (“FMI”) entered into a companion diagnostics agreement relating to QED’s drug discovery and development initiatives. Pursuant to the agreement, QED could be required to pay $12.5 million in regulatory approval milestones over a period of four years subsequent to the FDA approval of a companion diagnostic for TRUSELTIQ in patients with cholangiocarcinoma. The FDA approved the companion diagnostic for TRUSELTIQ in May 2021, which resulted in the capitalization of $12.5 million as a finite-lived intangible asset to be amortized over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis. As of September 30, 2021, the amount due to FMI is presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in “Other accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities” for $1.5 million and $11.0 million, respectively.

Intangible Assets

The following table summarizes the intangible assets recognized in connection with the above agreements:

13.Leases

Operating and Finance Leases

We have operating leases for our corporate headquarters, office spaces and laboratory facilities. One of our office space leases has a finance lease component representing lessor provided furniture and office equipment. Our finance leases, which are presented as part of “Property and equipment, net” in our consolidated balance sheets, are not material.

Certain leases include renewal options at our election and we include the renewal options when we are reasonably certain that the renewal option will be exercised. The lease liabilities were measured using a weighted-average discount rate based on the most recent borrowing rate as of the calculation of the respective lease liability, adjusted for the remaining lease term and aggregate amount of the lease.

In December 2019, we entered into a manufacturing agreement to secure clinical and commercial scale manufacturing capacity for the manufacture of batches of active pharmaceutical ingredients for product candidates of certain subsidiaries of BridgeBio. Unless terminated as allowed within the manufacturing agreement, the agreement will expire five years from when qualified operations begin. Under the terms of the agreement, we are assigned a dedicated manufacturing suite for certain months in each calendar year for a one-time fee of $10.0 million, which will be applied to the buildout, commissioning, qualification, validation, equipping and exclusive use of the dedicated manufacturing suite.

(Unaudited)

We recorded a construction-in-progress asset of $10.0 million for the payments directly associated with the dedicated manufacturing suite as these payments are deemed to represent a non-lease component. The readiness determination phase of the dedicated manufacturing suite is expected to be completed in 2021. The remaining payable related to the dedicated manufacturing suite, recorded as part of “Other accrued liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, amounted to $2.0 million and $4.0 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

14.Share Repurchase Program and Shelf Registration

2021 Share Repurchase Program

In May 2021, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a stock repurchase program pursuant to which we may purchase up to $150.0 million of BridgeBio’s outstanding common stock. Stock repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions and otherwise, at the discretion of our management and in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act, of 1934, as amended, and other applicable legal requirements. The timing, pricing and amounts of these repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock and general market and economic conditions. The stock repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of September 30, 2021, we repurchased 3,017,087 shares in the open market at an average price of $49.72 per share for a total of approximately $150.0 million. As of September 30, 2021, the repurchased shares are held in treasury as treasury stock.

2020 Shelf Registration

In July 2020, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “2020 Shelf”) with the SEC in relation to the registration of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and units or any combination thereof. We also simultaneously entered into an Open Market Sale AgreementSM with Jefferies LLC and SVB Leerink LLC (collectively, the “Sales Agents”), to provide for the offering, issuance and sale by us of up to an aggregate of $350.0 million of our common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings under the 2020 Shelf and subject to the limitations thereof (the “2020 Sales Agreement”). We will pay to the applicable Sales Agents cash commissions of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of sales of common stock under the 2020 Sales Agreement. We have not issued any shares or received any proceeds from this offering as of September 30, 2021.

15.Stock-Based Compensation

Under each of the legal entity’s equity plans, we recorded stock-based compensation in the following expense categories in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for employees and non-employees:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2021						Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

We have recorded $0.1 million and $3.3 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, for performance-based milestone awards that were achieved during the period and were settled in cash.

Equity-Based Awards of BridgeBio

As of September 30, 2021, 7,977,872 shares and 8,938 shares were reserved for future issuances under our 2019 Amended and Restated Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2019 A&R Plan”) and the 2019 Inducement Equity Plan (the “2019 Inducement Plan”), respectively. Pursuant to the Merger Transactions, we also reserved 2,802,644 shares specifically under the Eidos Award Exchange (the “Eidos Award Exchange Plan”), all of which were issued upon execution of the Eidos Award Exchange as discussed below. The 2019 A&R Plan, the 2019 Inducement Plan and the Eidos Award Exchange Plan are collectively referred herein as the “Plans”.

2020 Stock and Equity Award Exchange Program (Exchange Program)

On April 22, 2020, we completed our 2020 Stock and Equity Award Exchange Program (the “Exchange Program”) for certain subsidiaries, which was an opportunity for eligible controlled entities’ employees and consultants to exchange their subsidiary equity (including common stock, vested and unvested stock options and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”)) for BridgeBio equity (including common stock, vested and unvested stock options and RSAs) and/or performance-based milestone awards tied to the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones. The Exchange Program aligns our incentive compensation structure for employees and consultants across the BridgeBio group of companies to be consistent with the achievement of our overall corporate goals. In connection with the Exchange Program, we issued awards of BridgeBio equity under the 2019 A&R Plan to 149 grantees covering 554,064 shares of common stock, 1,268,110 stock options to purchase common stock, 50,145 shares of RSAs and 22,611 shares of performance-based RSAs. The exchange also included performance-based milestone awards of up to $183.4 million to be settled in fully-vested RSAs in the future upon achievement of the milestones (collectively the “New Awards”). In consideration for all the subsidiaries’ shares tendered, BridgeBio increased its ownership in controlled entities included in the Exchange Program and the corresponding noncontrolling interest decreased.

On November 18, 2020, we completed a stock and equity award under our Exchange Program for a subsidiary. We issued awards of BridgeBio equity under the 2019 A&R Plan to 16 grantees covering 24,924 shares of common stock, 70,436 stock options to purchase common stock, and 10,772 shares of performance-based stock options to purchase common stock. The exchange also included performance-based milestone awards of up to $11.7 million to be settled in fully-vested RSAs in the future upon achievement of the milestones.

We evaluated the exchange of the controlled entities’ outstanding common stock and equity awards for BridgeBio awards as a modification under ASC 718, Share Based Payments. Under ASC 718, a modification is a change in the terms or conditions of a stock-based compensation award. In assessing the accounting treatment, we consider the fair value, vesting conditions and classification as an equity or liability award of the controlled entity equity before the exchange, compared to the BridgeBio equity received as part of the exchange to determine whether modification accounting must be applied. When applying modification accounting, we considered the type of modification to determine the appropriate stock-based compensation cost to be recognized on April 22 and November 18, 2020, (each the “Modification Date”), and subsequent to the Modification Date.

We considered the total shares of common stock and equity awards, whether vested or unvested, held by each participant in each controlled entity as the unit of account. The controlled entity’s common stock and equity awards in each unit of account was exchanged for a combination of BridgeBio’s common stock, time-based vesting equity awards and/or performance-based milestone awards. Other than the exchange of the controlled entity equity awards for performance-based milestone awards, all other exchanged BridgeBio equity awards retained the original vesting conditions. As a result, there was no incremental stock-based compensation expense resulting from the exchange of time-based equity awards.

At the completion of the Exchange Program, we determined $17.4 million of the performance-based milestone awards were probable of achievement and represented the incremental stock-based compensation cost resulting from the modification of time-based equity awards to performance-based milestone awards. These performance-based milestone awards were to be recognized over a period ranging from 0.7 year to 1.7 years. There was no incremental stock-based compensation cost arising from the completion of the Exchange Program on November 18, 2020. Under ASC 718, we account for such performance-based milestone awards as a liability in “Accrued compensation and benefits” and in “Other long-term liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets due to the fixed milestone amount that will be converted into a variable number of shares of BridgeBio common stock to be granted upon the achievement date.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $25.8 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with milestone awards under the Exchange Program that were determined to be probable of achievement as of September 30, 2021. The related stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was not material. Refer to Note 8 for contingent compensation accrued associated with performance-based milestones that are determined to be probable as of September 30, 2021.

Performance-based Milestone Awards

Apart from the Exchange Program discussed above, we have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants whose vesting is contingent upon meeting various regulatory and development milestones, with fixed monetary amounts known at inception that can be settled in the form of cash or equity at our sole discretion, upon achievement of each contingent milestone. Upon achievement of a contingent milestone and if such performance-based milestone awards are settled in the form of equity, these are satisfied in the form of fully-vested RSAs. We recognize such contingent stock-based compensation expense when the milestone is probable of achievement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $0.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with performance-based milestone awards that were determined to be probable of achievement as of September 30, 2021. Refer to Note 8 for contingent compensation accrued associated with performance-based milestones awards that are determined to be probable as of September 30, 2021.

The options granted to employees and non-employees are exercisable at the price of BridgeBio’s common stock at the respective grant dates. The options granted have a service condition and generally vest over a period of four years.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $31.03.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable as of September 30, 2021 in the table above are calculated based on the difference between the exercise price and the current fair value of BridgeBio common stock. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $50.4 million.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $8.1 million and $21.9 million, respectively, related to stock options under the Plans. As of September 30, 2021, there was $71.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options under the Plans that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.

Valuation Assumptions

We used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase rights under the ESPP. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we used the following weighted-average assumptions in the Black-Scholes calculations:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
	Stock Options		ESPP
Expected term (in years)	6.00-6.02			0.50
Expected volatility	51.43%-51.97%		47.61% - 52.04%
Risk-free interest rate	0.63%-1.09%		0.05% - 0.13%
Dividend yield		—		—
Weighted-average fair value of stock-based awards granted	$	31.03	$	16.29

Equity Awards of Eidos

Prior to the Merger Transactions, Eidos issued its own equity-based awards under the Eidos 2016 Equity Incentive Plan and the Eidos 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Eidos Plans”). Upon closing of the Merger Transactions, we issued 2,776,672 stock options to purchase common stock of BridgeBio and 25,972 shares of BridgeBio RSUs to 88 employees of Eidos under the Eidos Award Exchange in exchange for their then outstanding common stock options and RSUs under the Eidos Plans (the “Replaced Awards”). The awards issued in the Eidos Award Exchange have the same vesting terms and conditions as the Replaced Awards. We evaluated the exchange of the awards as a modification under ASC 718 and recognized no incremental compensation cost from such modification.

Stock-based compensation under the Eidos Plans from January 1, 2021 until the closing of the Merger Transactions was immaterial.

16.Income Taxes

BridgeBio is subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation. BridgeBio’s tax provision and the resulting effective tax rate for interim periods is determined based upon its estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for the effect of discrete items arising in that quarter. There was no provision for income tax for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using statutory rates. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the favorable tax attributes in future tax returns, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our otherwise recognizable net deferred tax assets.

As a result of the issuance of our 2027 Notes in 2020, it was determined that our existing deferred tax assets do not fully offset the deferred tax liabilities when reviewing the reversals of temporary differences. This resulted in a deferred tax liability of $1.1 million that was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2020. As discussed in Note 2, we have derecognized the deferred tax liability on January 1, 2021 upon early adoption of ASU 2020-06, with no impact on the provision for income tax.

Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax benefits as part of the income tax provision and include accrued interest and penalties with the related income tax liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. To date, we have not recognized any interest and penalties in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, nor have we accrued for or made payments for interest and penalties. Our unrecognized gross tax benefits would not reduce the estimated annual effective tax rate if recognized because we have recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

Our 2029 Notes and 2027 Notes are convertible, based on the applicable conversion rate, into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof, at our election.

As discussed in Notes 8 and 15, we have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements, whose vesting is contingent upon meeting various regulatory and development milestones, with fixed monetary amounts known at inception that can be settled in the form of cash or equity at our sole election, upon achievement of each contingent milestone. The common stock equivalents of such arrangements were estimated as if the contingent milestones were achieved as of the reporting date and the arrangements were all settled in equity.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 25, 2021.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “estimate,” or “continue,” and similar expressions or variations. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as updated by the information, if any, in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as may be required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements or the reasons that results could differ from these forward-looking statements. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

We are a team of experienced drug discoverers, developers, and innovators working to create life-altering medicines that target well-characterized genetic diseases at their source. We founded BridgeBio in 2015 to identify and advance transformative medicines to treat patients who suffer from Mendelian diseases, which are diseases that arise from defects in a single gene, and cancers with clear genetic drivers. Our pipeline of over 30 development programs ranges from early science to advanced clinical trials and our commercial organization is focused on delivering our two approved therapies. Several of our programs target indications that we believe present the potential for our product candidates, if approved, to target portions of market opportunities of at least $1.0 billion in annual sales.

We focus on genetic diseases because they exist at the intersection of high unmet patient need and tractable biology. Our approach is to translate research pioneered at academic laboratories and leading medical institutions into products that we hope will ultimately reach patients. We are able to realize this opportunity through a confluence of scientific advances: (i) identification of the genetic underpinnings of disease as more cost-efficient genome and exome sequencing becomes available; (ii) progress in molecular biology; and (iii) the development and maturation of longitudinal data and retrospective studies that enable the linkage of genes to diseases. We believe that this early-stage innovation represents one of the greatest practical sources for new drug creation.

Since our inception in 2015, we have focused substantially all of our efforts and financial resources on acquiring and developing product and technology rights, building our intellectual property portfolio and conducting research and development activities for our product candidates within our wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities, including partially-owned subsidiaries and subsidiaries we consolidate based on our deemed majority control of such entities as determined using either the variable interest entity, or VIE model, or the voting interest entity, or VOE model. To support these activities, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, BridgeBio Services, Inc., (i) identify and secure new programs, (ii) set up new wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities, (iii) recruit key management team members, (iv) raise and allocate capital across the portfolio and (v) provide certain shared services, including accounting, legal, information technology and human resources, as well as workspaces. Our products, NULIBRYTM (fosdenopterin) and TRUSELTIQTM (infigratinib), were approved by the FDA in February and May 2021, respectively, and we commenced commercial sales of these products in the second quarter of 2021. We have not generated any significant revenue from sale of these products. To date, we have funded our operations with proceeds from the sale of our equity securities, the issuance of convertible notes, debt borrowings and, to a lesser extent, revenue from licensing arrangements and product sales.

39

Due to the inherently unpredictable nature of preclinical and clinical development, and given our novel therapeutic approaches and the stage of development of our product candidates, we cannot determine and are unable to estimate with certainty the timelines we will require and the costs we will incur for the development of our product candidates. Clinical and preclinical development timelines and costs, and the potential of development success, can differ materially from expectations due to a variety of factors. For example, in light of developments relating to the global pandemic of SARS-CoV-2, the novel strain of coronavirus that causes Coronavirus disease 19, or COVID-19, the resources of healthcare providers and hospitals have been focused on fighting the virus and any variants of the virus, and, we have experienced delays in or temporary suspension of the enrollment of patients in our subsidiaries’ ongoing clinical trials. We additionally may experience delays in certain ongoing key program activities, including commencement of planned clinical trials, as well as non-clinical experiments and investigational new drug application-enabling good laboratory practice toxicology studies. The exact duration of delays and their overall impact on our business are currently unknown, and we are continuing to actively monitor the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as it continues to rapidly evolve. Accordingly, we may take further precautionary and preemptive actions as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of public health and safety and that of our patient community, employees, partners, suppliers and stockholders. We cannot predict the effects that such actions, the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic or its continuing impact on global business operations and economic conditions, may have on our business or strategy, including the effects on our ongoing and planned clinical development activities and prospects, or on our financial and operating results. For example, depending on the full impact and prevalence of COVID-19 over time, we anticipate that we will report initial data from the ongoing Phase 2 dose-escalation and expansion study of infigratinib in children with achondroplasia by the end of 2021.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

As of September 30, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $599.6 million. In January 2021, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $747.5 million of our 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029, or the 2029 Notes, in a private offering, or the 2021 Note Offering, to qualified institutional buyers. We received net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering of approximately $731.4 million, after deducting the purchasers’ discount. We used approximately $61.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering to pay for the cost of capped call transactions and approximately $50.0 million to pay for the repurchase of shares of our common stock. On January 26, 2021, we closed and completed the Merger Transactions with Eidos. The acquisition of the outstanding Eidos common stock was settled through cash payments of $21.3 million and the issuance of shares of our common stock. In April 2021, we executed the Sixth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc., or Hercules, in which we received an additional term loan principal of $25.0 million. We used a portion of the proceeds from such borrowing to prepay the outstanding principal of $17.5 million under Eidos’ Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and Hercules or the SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement. In May 2021, we invested $20.0 million of our available cash in equity securities of publicly held companies. During the period, we received $46.0 million comprising mainly of upfront and launch milestone payments under the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we paid regulatory-related milestone payments in connection with our approved products, the more significant of which aggregated $35.0 million. To date, we have repurchased shares of our common stock in the open market of approximately $150.0 million, which represents the total authorized and approved amount under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program.

License revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 pertains to the recognition of revenue upon transfer of inventory under the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement. License revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is comprised primarily of the recognition of upfront and launch milestone payments of $44.4 million in connection with the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement and $8.5 million in license revenue in connection with the achievement of a regulatory milestone under the License Agreement between our subsidiary, Navire, and LianBio.

License revenue for three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $8.1 million arising primarily from the recognition of the upfront payment received upon execution of the License Agreement between Navire and LianBio.

Research and development	$	104,305	$	92,050	$	12,255	$	328,824	$	246,873	$	81,951

Research and development expense increased by $12.3 million and $82.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020 primarily due to an increase in personnel costs and external costs. Higher personnel costs was attributed to increase in the number of employees to support progression in our research and development programs, including our increasing research pipeline. The increase in personnel costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was also driven by increases in stock-based compensation related to performance-based milestone compensation arrangements for regulatory and development milestones achieved and determined to be probable of achievement. Stock-based compensation recorded in research and development expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $4.8 million and $46.5 million, respectively, as compared to $6.9 million and $17.7 million, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year. The increase in external costs was a result of increased manufacturing activities for early to late stage programs.

41

Under the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement, Helsinn shares 60% of our research and development costs for infigratinib for certain indications as agreed under the agreement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, Helsinn’s share of the research and development costs amounted to $9.6 million and $28.2 million, respectively, which were reflected as a reduction of research and development expenses.

Research and development costs consist primarily of external costs, such as fees paid to consultants, contractors, contract manufacturing organizations, or CMOs, and contract research organizations, or CROs, in connection with our preclinical and clinical development activities and are tracked on a program-by-program basis. License fees and other costs incurred after a product candidate has been designated and that are directly related to the product candidate are included in the specific program expense. License fees and other costs incurred prior to designating a product candidate are included in early-stage research programs.

The following table summarizes our research and development expenses by program incurred for the following periods:

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $10.1 million and $29.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020 due to costs incurred to support organizational growth, including staged build-out of our commercial organization as part of commercial launch readiness activities. Stock-based compensation recorded in selling, general and administrative expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $11.3 million and $36.5 million, respectively, as compared to $10.8 million and $28.6 million, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year.

Under the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement, the parties co-commercialize TRUSELTIQ in the United States and share profits and losses on a 50:50 basis. Following the FDA approval of TRUSELTIQ in May 2021, we accounted for Helsinn’s share of the co-commercialization loss of $2.6 million and $6.8 million as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Interest income consists of interest income earned on our cash equivalents and marketable securities. The decrease in interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 was driven by a general decline in interest rates, as the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered the risk-free interest rate to nearly zero, that began at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and continued through the current period.

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 consists primarily of interest expense incurred under our 2029 Notes issued in January 2021, our 2027 Notes issued in March 2020, our term loans with Hercules pursuant to our Loan and Security Agreement, dated June 19, 2018, as amended, and Eidos’ term loan with Silicon Valley Bank and Hercules pursuant to its Loan and Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2019, or the SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement, which was prepaid in full in April 2021. Interest expense for the same period in 2020 consists primarily of interest expense incurred under our 2027 Notes and our term loans with Hercules and SVB and Hercules. The increase of $0.1 million and $6.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 was primarily attributed to increases in principal amounts.

Other income (expense) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 consists mainly of changes in fair value of the LEO Call Option liability. The LEO Call Option was subject to remeasurement to fair value at each balance sheet date until the LEO Call Option either was exercised, terminated or had expired. As a result of the notice of termination by LEO of the LEO call option, we have derecognized the LEO call option liability balance of $5.6 million as of March 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically financed our operations primarily through the sale of our equity securities, issuance of convertible notes, debt borrowings and revenue from certain licensing arrangements. As of September 30, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $599.6 million. The funds held by our wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities are available for specific entity usage, except in limited circumstances. As of September 30, 2021, our outstanding debt was $1.4 billion, net of debt discounts and issuance costs and accretion.

Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we incurred net losses of $505.5 million, $288.6 million and $169.5 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we incurred net losses of $434.2 million. We had an accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2021 of $1.3 billion. We expect to continue to incur net losses over the next several years as we continue to fund our drug development and discovery efforts and incur significant clinical and preclinical development costs related to our current research and development programs as well as costs related to commercial launch readiness for our late-stage programs. In particular, to the extent we advance our programs into and through later-stage clinical trials without a partner, we will incur substantial expenses. Our current business plan is also subject to significant uncertainties and risks as a result of, among other factors, our ability to generate product sale sufficient to achieve profitability, which will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our product candidates at our consolidated entities.

Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements include contractual payments related to our 2029 Notes, 2027 Notes, term loans and obligations under our real estate leases.

We also have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants, whose vesting is contingent upon meeting various regulatory and development milestones, with fixed monetary amounts known at inception that can be settled in the form of cash or equity at our sole election, upon achievement of each contingent milestone.

43

Additionally, we have certain contingent payment obligations under various license and collaboration agreements in which we are required to make milestone payments upon successful completion and achievement of certain intellectual property, clinical, regulatory and sales milestones. We also enter into agreements in the normal course of business with CROs and other vendors for clinical trials and with vendors for preclinical studies and other services and products for operating purposes, which are generally cancelable upon written notice.

We expect our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities will fund our operations for at least the next 12 months based on current operating plans and financial forecasts. If our current operating plans or financial forecasts change, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our research and development activities, we may require additional funding sooner in the form of public or private equity offerings, debt financings or additional collaborations and licensing arrangements. However, future financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

In addition, we are closely monitoring ongoing developments in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, which may negatively impact our financial and operating results. We will continue to assess our operating costs and expenses and our cash and cash equivalents and, if circumstances warrant, we will make appropriate adjustments to our operating plan.

Sources of Liquidity

Initial public offerings and at-the-market share issuances

In June 2018, our then controlled subsidiary, Eidos, completed its U.S. initial public offering of its common stock of which net proceeds received were $95.5 million, or the Eidos IPO. In December 2019 and February 2020, Eidos received net proceeds of $23.9 million and $24.1 million, respectively, from its at-the-market issuance of shares. Prior to the effectiveness of the Merger Transactions with Eidos, all cash and cash equivalents held by Eidos were restricted and could be applied solely to fund the operations of Eidos.

On July 1, 2019, we completed the IPO of our common stock. As part of the IPO, we issued and sold 23,575,000 shares of our common stock, which included 3,075,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $17.00 per share. We received net proceeds of approximately $366.2 million from the IPO, after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions of $28.1 million and offering costs of $6.5 million.

On July 7, 2020, we filed the 2020 Shelf with the SEC in relation to the registration of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and units or any combination thereof. We also simultaneously entered into the 2020 Sales Agreement with the Sales Agents, to provide for the offering, issuance and sale by us of up to an aggregate of $350.0 million of our common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings under the 2020 Shelf and subject to the limitations thereof. We will pay to the applicable Sales Agents cash commissions of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of sales of common stock under the 2020 Sales Agreement. We have not issued any shares or received any proceeds from this offering through September 30, 2021.

Debt

2029 Notes

On January 28, 2021, we issued an aggregate of $717.5 million principal amount of our 2029 Notes, pursuant to an Indenture dated January 28, 2021, or the 2029 Notes Indenture, between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, or the 2029 Notes Trustee, in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, or the 2021 Note Offering, pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 2029 Notes issued in the 2021 Note Offering include $67.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes sold to the initial purchasers, or the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers, pursuant to the exercise in part of the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers’ option to purchase $97.5 million principal amount of additional 2029 Notes. On January 28, 2021, the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers exercised the remaining portion of their option to purchase $30.0 million principal amount of additional 2029 Notes. The sale of those additional 2029 Notes closed on February 2, 2021.

44

The 2029 Notes will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2021, at a rate of 2.25% per year. The 2029 Notes will mature on February 1, 2029, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2029 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of BridgeBio common stock or a combination of cash and shares of BridgeBio common stock, at our election.

We received net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering of approximately $731.4 million, after deducting the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers’ discount. There were no direct offering expenses borne by us for the 2029 Notes. We used approximately $61.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering to pay for the cost of the 2021 Capped Call Transactions and approximately $50.0 million to pay for the repurchase of shares of BridgeBio common stock described below. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include research and development and clinical development costs to support the advancement of our drug candidates, including the continued growth of our commercial and medical affairs capabilities, the conduct of clinical trials and preclinical research and development activities; working capital; capital expenditures; repayment of outstanding indebtedness; general and administrative expenses; and other general corporate purposes.

A holder of 2029 Notes may convert all or any portion of its 2029 Notes at its option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding November 1, 2028 in multiples of $1,000 only under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2021 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period, or the measurement period, in which the “trading price” (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

If we call such notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events.

On or after November 1, 2028 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, a holder may convert all or any portion of its 2029 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing.

The conversion rate will initially be 10.3050 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $97.04 per share of BridgeBio’s common stock, for a total of approximately 7,702,988 shares).

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or if we deliver a notice of redemption, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2029 Notes in connection with such a corporate event. The maximum number of shares issuable should there be an increase in the conversion rate is 11,361,851 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock.

We may not redeem the 2029 Notes prior to February 6, 2026. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2029 Notes, at our option, on a redemption date occurring on or after February 6, 2026 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, under certain circumstances. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2027 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2029 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the 2029 Notes Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the Notes plus accrued special interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable. The 2029 Notes are our general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2029 Notes; equal in right of payment with all of our liabilities that are not so subordinated, including our 2027 Notes; effectively junior to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

45

2027 Notes

On March 9, 2020, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $550.0 million of our 2027 Notes, pursuant to an Indenture dated March 9, 2020, or the 2027 Notes Indenture, between BridgeBio and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, or the 2027 Notes Trustee, in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, or the 2021 Note Offering, pursuant to the Securities Act. The 2027 Notes issued in the 2020 Note Offering include $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes sold to the initial purchasers in the offering, or the Initial Purchasers, pursuant to the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional 2027 Notes.

The 2027 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of BridgeBio and will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2020, at a rate of 2.50 % per year. The 2027 Notes will mature on March 15, 2027, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The 2027 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election.

We received net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering of approximately $537.0 million, after deducting the 2027 Notes Initial Purchasers’ discount and offering expenses. We used approximately $49.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering to pay for the cost of the 2020 Capped Call Transactions, and approximately $75.0 million to pay for the repurchases of shares of our common stock. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including for our commercial organization and launch preparations. We may also use any remaining net proceeds to fund possible acquisitions of, or investments in, complementary businesses, products, services and technologies.

A holder of 2027 Notes may convert all or any portion of its 2027 Notes at its option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2026 in multiples of $1,000 only under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period, or the measurement period, in which the “trading price” (as defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or

Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events.

On or after December 15, 2026 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, a holder may convert all or any portion of its 2027 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing.

The conversion rate will initially be 23.4151 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $42.71 per share of our common stock, for a total of approximately 12,878,305 shares). The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2027 Notes in connection with such a corporate event. The maximum number of shares issuable should there be an increase in the conversion rate is 17,707,635 shares of our common stock.

We may not redeem the 2027 Notes prior to the maturity date, and no sinking fund is provided for the 2027 Notes. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2027 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2027 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the 2027 Notes Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the Notes plus accrued special interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable. The 2027 Notes are our general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2027 Notes; equal in right of payment with all of our liabilities that are not so subordinated, including our 2029 Notes; effectively junior to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

Hercules Loan and Security Agreement

In June 2018, we executed a Loan and Security Agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc., or Hercules, under which we borrowed $35.0 million, or Tranche I. The term of the loan was approximately 42 months, with a maturity date of January 1, 2022, or the Maturity Date. No principal payments were due during an interest-only period, commencing on the initial borrowing date and continuing through July 1, 2020, or the Amortization Date. In December 2018, we executed the First Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, whereby we borrowed an additional $20.0 million, or Tranche II, to increase the total principal balance outstanding to $55.0 million. Upon draw of the additional $20.0 million, the interest-only period on the entire facility was extended until January 1, 2021 and the maturity date for the entire facility was July 1, 2022. In May 2019, we executed the Second Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement whereby we borrowed an additional $20.0 million, or Tranche III, to increase the total principal balance outstanding to $75.0 million.

In July 2019, the completion of BridgeBio’s IPO triggered certain provisions of the Hercules Term Loan. BridgeBio received an option to pay up to 1.5% of scheduled cash pay interest on the entire facility as payment in kind, or PIK Interest, with such cash pay interest paid as PIK Interest at a 1:1.2 ratio. The interest-only period will continue through July 1, 2021, or the Modified Amortization Date, and the entire facility received a maturity date of January 1, 2023, or the Modified Maturity Date. The outstanding balance of the Hercules Term Loan is to be repaid by BridgeBio monthly beginning on the Modified Amortization Date and extending through the Modified Maturity Date.

Prior to the Fourth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, or the Amended Hercules Term Loan, described below, the interest rate for the Hercules Term Loan was established as follows: (1) Tranche I bears interest at a floating rate equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 3.85% and (ii) 8.85%, payable monthly; (2) Tranche II bears interest at a floating rate equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 2.85% and (ii) 8.60%, payable monthly; and (3) Tranche III bears interest at a floating rate equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 3.10% and (ii) 9.10%, payable monthly.

The Hercules Term Loan contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and affirmative and negative covenants for a term loan facility of this size and type. However, Hercules imposes no liquidity covenants on us and Hercules cannot limit or restrict our ability to dispose of assets, make investments, or make acquisitions. As pledged collateral for our obligations under the Hercules Term Loan, we granted Hercules a security interest in all of our assets or personal property, including all equity interests owned or hereafter acquired by us. Further, at Hercules’ sole discretion we must make a mandatory prepayment equal to 75% of net cash proceeds received from the sale or licensing of any pledged or collateral assets, including intellectual property, of a consolidated entity owned by us, or the repurchase or redemption of any pledged collateral by certain specified operating companies. None of our consolidated entities are a party to, nor provide any credit support or other security in connection with the Hercules Term Loan.

In March 2020, we executed the Third Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement primarily to allow us to issue our 2027 Notes and to enter into the Capped Call and Share Repurchase Transactions.

In April 2020, we entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, extended the interest-only period and maturity date of the term loans, provided for certain interest rate reduction and increased the available loan facilities under the Loan and Security Agreement.

In January 2021, we executed the Fifth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement primarily to allow us to issue our 2029 Notes and to enter into the related 2021 Capped Call and share repurchase transactions.

In April 2021, we executed the Sixth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Hercules Term Loan”), which among other things:

(1)provided for an additional principal borrowing amounting to $25.0 million (“Tranche IV”, the proceeds of which were received by us upon the execution of the Amended Hercules Term Loan),

(2)extended the interest-only period under the Loan and Security Agreement to June 1, 2024 (the “Amended Amortization Date”) which may be further extended to June 1, 2025, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan,

(3)extended the maturity date for the term loans under the Loan and Security Agreement to May 1, 2025, which may be further extended to May 1, 2026, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan,

(4)provided for an interest rate on the outstanding principal balance equal to the greater of (x) a floating interest rate linked to the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 4.40% and (y) 7.65% (7.65% as of September 30, 2021), payable monthly, and

47

(5)provided for additional available facilities aggregating to $185.0 million, which comprises of: (a) an additional incremental loan in the amount of $70.0 million, available no later than June 15, 2022, (b) an additional incremental loan following the achievement of certain performance milestones in the amount of $40.0 million, available no later than September 15, 2022, and (c) an additional $75.0 million discretionary incremental tranche, subject to Hercules’ approval in its sole and absolute discretion, available no later than December 15, 2023.

The Amended Hercules Term Loan also provides us with greater flexibility to incur additional convertible debt and repurchase and/or redeem convertible debt, each subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan. There have not been any additional draws on the $185.0 million additional available facilities as of September 30, 2021.

Silicon Valley Bank and Hercules Loan Agreement

On November 13, 2019, Eidos entered into the SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement. The SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement provided for up to $55.0 million in term loans that would be drawn in three tranches as follows: (i) Tranche A loan of $17.5 million, (ii) Tranche B loan of up to $22.5 million which was available to be drawn until October 31, 2020, and (iii) Tranche C loan of up to $15.0 million available to be drawn upon a clinical trial milestone. The Tranche C loan was available to be drawn until September 30, 2021. The Tranche A loan of $17.5 million was drawn on November 13, 2019. There were no additional draws on the other tranches, including the Tranche B loan that was available until October 31, 2020.

The Tranche A loan was subject to interest at a fixed rate equal to the greater of either (i) 8.50% or (ii) 3.25% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal (8.50% as of March 31, 2021). The Tranche A loan repayment schedule provided for interest only payments until November 1, 2021, followed by consecutive equal monthly payments of principal and interest commencing on this date continuing through the maturity date of October 2, 2023.

The Tranche A loan also provided for a $0.3 million commitment fee that was paid at closing and a final payment charge equal to 5.95% multiplied by the amount funded to be paid when the loan becomes due or upon prepayment of the facility. If Eidos elected to prepay the Tranche A loan, there would also be a prepayment fee of between 0.75% and 2.50% of the principal amount being prepaid depending on the timing and circumstances of prepayment. The Tranche A loan was secured by substantially all of Eidos’ assets, except Eidos’ intellectual property, which was the subject of a negative pledge.

In January 2021, Eidos entered into an amendment to the SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement primarily to allow Eidos to enter into the Merger Transactions. The amendment also required Eidos to maintain a certain amount of cash and cash equivalents with SVB.

The Tranche A loan was prepaid in full in April 2021 using a portion of the proceeds from Tranche IV under the Amended Hercules Term Loan mentioned above.

Net Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $364.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, consisting primarily of our net loss of $434.2 million, adjusted for non-cash items including $79.7 million in stock-based compensation expense, $4.3 million in depreciation and amortization, $4.1 million in noncash lease expense, $4.0 million in accretion of debt and $5.6 million of income from the derecognition of the LEO Call Option liability, as well as $25.0 million net cash outflow related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. The $25.0 million net cash outflow related to changes in operating assets and liabilities was attributed mainly to an increase of $8.9 million in other assets, an increase of $7.7 million in receivable from licensing and collaboration agreements, a decrease of $4.5 million in operating lease liabilities, a decrease of $4.4 million in accrued compensation and benefits and an increase of $3.7 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets, partially offset by an increase of $4.7 million in accrued research and development liabilities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $303.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, consisting primarily of our net loss of $370.5 million, adjusted for non-cash items such as $46.3 million in stock-based compensation expense and $12.3 million accretion of our 2027 Notes and term loans. The net cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities was minimal during the period and is attributed mainly to an increase of $4.0 million in accrued research and development liabilities, an increase of $2.4 million in accrued compensation and benefits, and an increase of $4.9 million in other accrued and other long-term liabilities, mostly due to increase in our CROs’ and CMOs’ expenses for research activities and other expenses to support the growth of our operation, partially offset by an increase in receivable from a related party of $5.2 million, an increase in prepaid and expenses and other current assets of $5.4 million, and a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $2.3 million.

Net Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $222.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, consisting primarily of purchases of marketable securities of $575.5 million, acquisition of intangible assets of $35.0 million, purchases of investment in equity securities of $24.0 million and purchases of property and equipment of $10.7 million, partially offset by $305.2 million and $98.9 million in maturities and sale, respectively, of marketable securities, $13.7 million increase in cash and cash equivalents from consolidation of PellePharm and $4.7 million sale of investment in equity securities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $136.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, consisting primarily of purchases of marketable securities of $269.8 million and purchases of property and equipment of $5.4 million, partially offset by $139.0 million in maturities of marketable securities.

Net Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $411.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, consisting primarily of net proceeds from the issuance of our 2029 Notes of $731.4 million, from the additional principal borrowing under the Amended Hercules Term Loan of $25.0 million and from stock option exercises of $14.3 million, partially offset by purchase of capped calls of $61.3 million, repurchases of our common stock of $198.5 million and prepayment of the Tranche A loan of $18.1 million. We also used cash of $85.1 million to repurchase the noncontrolling interest of Eidos and pay for related direct transaction costs.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $442.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, consisting primarily of the net proceeds from the issuance of our 2027 Notes of $537.0 million and at-the-market issuance of noncontrolling interest by Eidos of $24.1 million, offset by the repurchase of our common stock of $75.0 million and purchase of capped calls of $49.3 million, both in relation to the issuance of our 2027 Notes.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. While we have investments classified as VIEs, their purpose is not to provide off-balance sheet financing.

49

Critical Accounting Policies

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as revenues, if any, and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Except as discussed below, there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC.

License Arrangements and Multiple-Element Arrangements

Revenue from non-refundable, upfront license or technology access payments under license arrangements that are not dependent on any future performance by us is recognized when such amounts are earned. If we have continuing obligations to perform under the arrangement, such fees are recognized over the estimated period of continuing performance obligation.

When we enter into license agreements, we assess whether the arrangements fall within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808) based on whether the arrangements involve joint operating activities and whether both parties have active participation in the arrangement and are exposed to significant risks and rewards. To the extent that the arrangement falls within the scope of ASC 808, we assess whether the payments between us and our partner fall within the scope of other accounting literature. If we conclude that payments from the partner to us represent consideration from a customer, such as license fees and contract manufacturing and research and development activities, we account for those payments within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. However, if we conclude that our partner is not a customer for certain activities and associated payments, such as for certain collaborative research, development, manufacturing and commercial activities, we present such payments as a reduction of research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, based on where we present the underlying expense. Additionally, if we reimburse our collaboration partners for these activities, we present such reimbursements as research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, depending upon the nature of the underlying expense.

If our collaborative arrangement provides for the sharing of profits and losses with our partner for commercialization activities, the treatment of our share in the profit-sharing structure depends on who the selling party is. If we are the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our collaboration partner’s share of profits as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses and our collaboration partner’s share of loss as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses. If our partner is the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our share of profits as collaboration revenue and our share of losses as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses.

Revenue Recognition

For elements of those arrangements that we determine should be accounted for under ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy our performance obligation. We apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer.

At inception of the arrangement, once it is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and then identify the performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation, on a relative standalone selling price basis, when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the standalone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. These key assumptions may include forecasted revenue or costs, development timelines, discount rates and probabilities of clinical and regulatory success.

50

License Fees: For arrangements that include a grant of a license to our intellectual property, we consider whether the license grant is distinct from the other performance obligations included in the arrangement. Generally, we would conclude that the license is distinct if the customer is able to benefit from the license with the resources available to it. For licenses that are distinct, we recognize revenues from nonrefundable, upfront license fees and other consideration allocated to the license when the license term has begun and we have provided all necessary information regarding the underlying intellectual property to the customer, which generally occurs at or near the inception of the arrangement. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, we determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time. If the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time, we use judgment in determining the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from the up-front license fees. We evaluate the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjust the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.

Development and Regulatory Milestone Payments: At the inception of each arrangement that includes development and regulatory milestone payments, we evaluate whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimate the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. We generally include these milestone payments when they are achieved because there is considerable uncertainty in the research and development processes that trigger these payments under our agreements. Similarly, we include approval milestone payments in the transaction price once the product is approved by the applicable regulatory agency. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of achieving such development and regulatory milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjust our estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Sales-based Milestone Payments and Royalties: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the volume of sales, we will determine whether the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties or sales-based milestones relate and if such is the case, we will recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements” to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of September 30, 2021, we held cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $599.6 million. Our cash equivalents consist of amounts invested in money market accounts, such as money market funds and short-term commercial paper. Our marketable securities consisted of commercial papers, supranational debt securities and short-term and long-term U.S. treasury notes and corporate debt securities. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure. We have not been exposed nor do we anticipate being exposed to material risks due to changes in interest rates. We do not believe that our cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities have a significant risk of default or illiquidity.

As of September 30, 2021, we had $100.0 million in variable rate debt outstanding. The Hercules Term Loan, which has a principal balance of $100.0 million, matures in May 2025, with interest-only monthly payments until June 2024. The Hercules Term Loan provides for an interest rate on the outstanding principal balance equal to the greater of (x) a floating interest rate linked to the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 4.40% and (y) 7.65% (7.65% as of September 30, 2021), payable monthly.

A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rate during any of the periods presented would not have had a material impact on our financial statements.

Our 2029 Notes and 2027 Notes had principal balances of $747.5 million and $550.0 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2021 and bear fixed interest rates. Our cash flows on these debt obligations are not subject to variability as a result of changes in interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic and current reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021 and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of that date. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in March 2020, certain of our employees began working remotely. We have not identified any material changes in our internal control over financial reporting as a result of these changes to the working environment. We continue to monitor and assess the COVID-19 situation to determine any potential impact on the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.

52

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we were not party to any material legal proceedings. In the future, we may become party to legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe we are party to any claim or litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse effect on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, including under the heading “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”, the risks and uncertainties that we believe are most important for you to consider are discussed in “Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations. There are no material changes to the Risk Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

The timing, pricing and amounts of these repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock and general market and economic conditions. The stock repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

The purpose of the BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. Amended and Restated 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“the Plan”) is to provide eligible employees of BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) and each Designated Company (as defined in Section 11) with opportunities to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). An aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been approved and reserved for this purpose, plus on January 1, 2020 and each January 1st thereafter until the Plan terminates pursuant to Section 20, the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be cumulatively increased by the lesser of (i) 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) one percent of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31st or (iii) such lesser number of shares of Common Stock as determined by the Administrator.

The Plan includes two components: a Code Section 423 Component (the “423 Component”) and a non-Code Section 423 Component (the “Non-423 Component”). It is intended for the 423 Component to constitute an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the 423 Component shall be interpreted in accordance with that intent (although the Company makes no undertaking or representation to maintain such qualification). Under the Non-423 Component, which does not qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code, options will be granted pursuant to rules, procedures or sub-plans adopted by the Administrator designed to achieve tax, securities laws or other objectives

for eligible employees. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component.

1.Administration. The Plan will be administered by the person or persons (the “Administrator”) appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) for such purpose. The Administrator has authority at any time to: (i) adopt, alter and repeal such rules, subplans, guidelines and practices for the administration and operation of the Plan and for its own acts and proceedings as it shall deem advisable, including to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws, regulations and procedures for jurisdictions outside of the United States; (ii) interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan; (iii) make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the Plan; (iv) decide all disputes arising in connection with the Plan; and (v) otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. All interpretations and decisions of the Administrator shall be binding on all persons, including the Company and the Participants (as defined in Section 11). No member of the Board or individual exercising administrative authority with respect to the Plan shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option granted hereunder.

2.Offerings. The Company will make one or more offerings to eligible employees to purchase Common Stock under the Plan (“Offerings”). Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, an Offering will begin on the first business day occurring on or after each February 16th and August 16th and will end on the last business day occurring on or before the following August 15th and February 15th, respectively. The Administrator may, in its discretion, designate a different period for any Offering, provided that no Offering shall exceed 27 months in duration or overlap any other Offering.

2

3.Eligibility. All individuals classified as employees on the payroll records of the Company and each Designated Company are eligible to participate in any one or more of the Offerings under the Plan, provided that as of the first day of the applicable Offering (the “Offering Date”) they are customarily employed by the Company or a Designated Company for more than 20 hours a week of employment and have been employed since the first day of the month in which the Offering Date occurs, unless the exclusion of employees who do not meet this requirement is not permissible under applicable law. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, individuals who are not contemporaneously classified as employees of the Company or a Designated Company for purposes of the Company’s or applicable Designated Company’s payroll system are not considered to be eligible employees of the Company or any Designated Company and shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan. In the event any such individuals are reclassified as employees of the Company or a Designated Company for any purpose, including, without limitation, common law or statutory employees, by any action of any third party, including, without limitation, any government agency, or as a result of any private lawsuit, action or administrative proceeding, such individuals shall, notwithstanding such reclassification, remain ineligible for participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusive means for individuals who are not contemporaneously classified as employees of the Company or a Designated Company on the Company’s or Designated Company’s payroll system to become eligible to participate in a plan which is equivalent to this Plan is through the adoption of a subplan, which specifically renders such individuals eligible to participate therein.

4.Participation.

(a)Participants in Offerings. An eligible employee who is not a Participant in any prior Offering may participate in a subsequent Offering by submitting (either in electronic or

3

written form, according to procedures established by the Company) an enrollment form to his or her appropriate payroll location at least 15 business days before the Offering Date (or by such other deadline as shall be established by the Administrator for the Offering).

(b)Enrollment. The enrollment form will (i) state a whole percentage to be contributed from an eligible employee’s Compensation (as defined in Section 11) per pay period, (ii) authorize the purchase of Common Stock in each Offering in accordance with the terms of the Plan and (iii) specify the exact name or names in which shares of Common Stock purchased for such individual are to be issued or transferred pursuant to Section 10. An employee who does not enroll in accordance with these procedures will be deemed to have waived the right to participate. Unless a Participant submits (either in electronic or written form, according to procedures established by the Company) a new enrollment form or withdraws from the Plan, such Participant’s contributions and purchases will continue at the same percentage of Compensation for future Offerings, provided he or she remains eligible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, participation in the Plan will neither be permitted nor be denied contrary to the requirements of the Code and any applicable law.

5.Employee Contributions. Each eligible employee may authorize payroll deductions at a minimum of 1 percent up to a maximum of 15 percent of such employee’s Compensation for each pay period; provided, however, that if payroll deductions are not permitted or problematic under applicable law or for administrative reasons, the Company, in its discretion, may allow eligible employees to contribute to the Plan by other means. The Company will maintain book accounts showing the amount of payroll deductions or other contributions made by each Participant for each Offering. No interest will accrue or be paid on payroll deductions or other contributions, unless required under applicable law.

4

6.Contribution Changes. Except as may be determined by the Administrator in advance of an Offering, a Participant may not increase his or her contributions during an Offering and may only decrease his or her contributions once during an Offering. However, during an Offering, a Participant may increase or decrease his or her contributions with respect to the next Offering (subject to the limitations of Section 5) by submitting (either in electronic or written form, according to procedures established by the Company) a new enrollment form at least 15 business days before the next Offering Date (or by such other deadline as shall be established by the Administrator for the Offering). The Administrator may, in advance of any Offering, establish rules permitting a Participant to increase, decrease or terminate his or her contributions during an Offering.

7.Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw from participation in the Plan by submitting a notice of withdrawal to his or her appropriate payroll location (either in electronic or written form, according to procedures established by the Administrator). The Participant’s withdrawal will be effective as of the next business day. Following a Participant’s withdrawal, the Company will promptly refund such individual’s entire account balance under the Plan to him or her (after payment for any Common Stock purchased before the effective date of withdrawal). Partial withdrawals are not permitted. Such an employee may not begin participation again during the remainder of the Offering, but may enroll in a subsequent Offering in accordance with Section 4.

8.Grant of Options. On each Offering Date, the Company will grant to each eligible employee who is then a Participant in the Plan an option (“Option”) to purchase on the last day of such Offering (the “Exercise Date”), at the Option Price hereinafter provided for, the lowest of (a) a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such Participant’s accumulated contributions on such Exercise Date by the lower of (i) 85 percent of the Fair Market Value (as

5

defined in Section 11) of the Common Stock on the Offering Date, or (ii) 85 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Exercise Date, (b) 3,500 shares; or (c) such other lesser maximum number of shares as shall have been established by the Administrator in advance of the Offering; provided, however, that such Option shall be subject to the limitations set forth below. Each Participant’s Option shall be exercisable only to the extent of such Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions and/or other contributions on the Exercise Date. The purchase price for each share purchased under each Option (the “Option Price”) will be 85 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Offering Date or the Exercise Date, whichever is less.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Participant may be granted an Option hereunder if such Participant, immediately after the Option was granted, would be treated as owning stock possessing 5 percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent (as defined in Section 11) or Subsidiary (as defined in Section 11). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining the stock ownership of a Participant, and all stock which the Participant has a contractual right to purchase shall be treated as stock owned by the Participant. In addition, no Participant may be granted an Option which permits his or her rights to purchase stock under the Plan, and any other employee stock purchase plan of the Company and its Parents and Subsidiaries, to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such stock (determined on the Option grant date or dates) for each calendar year in which the Option is outstanding at any time. The purpose of the limitation in the preceding sentence is to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and shall be applied taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.

6

9.Exercise of Option and Purchase of Shares. Each employee who continues to be a Participant in the Plan on the Exercise Date shall be deemed to have exercised his or her Option on such date and shall acquire from the Company such number of whole shares of Common Stock reserved for the purpose of the Plan as his or her accumulated contributions on such date will purchase at the Option Price, subject to any other limitations contained in the Plan. Any amount remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of an Offering solely by reason of the inability to purchase a fractional share will be carried forward to the next Offering; any other balance remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of an Offering will be refunded to the Participant promptly.

If a Participant has more than one Option outstanding under the Plan, unless he or she otherwise indicates in agreements or notices delivered hereunder: (i) each agreement or notice delivered by that Participant shall be deemed to apply to all of his or her Options under the Plan; and (ii) an Option with a lower Option Price (or an earlier granted Option, if different Options have identical Option Prices) shall be exercised to the fullest possible extent before an Option with a higher Option Price (or a later granted Option if different Options have identical Option Prices) shall be exercised.

10.Issuance of Certificates. Certificates, or book entries for uncertificated shares, representing shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan may be issued only in the name of the employee or, if permitted by the Administrator, in the name of the employee and another person of legal age as joint tenants with rights of survivorship, or in the name of a broker authorized by the employee to be his, her or their, nominee for such purpose.

7

11.Definitions.

The term “Affiliate” means any entity that is directly or indirectly controlled by the Company which does not meet the definition of a Subsidiary below, as determined by the Administrator, whether new or hereafter existing.

The term “Compensation” means the amount of base pay, prior to salary reduction pursuant to Sections 125, 132(f) or 401(k) of the Code (or comparable reductions under laws outside the United States), but excluding overtime, commissions, incentive or bonus awards, allowances and reimbursements for expenses such as relocation allowances or travel expenses, income or gains related to Company stock options and other share-based awards, and similar items. The Administrator shall have the discretion to determine the application of this definition to Participants outside of the United States.

The term “Designated Company” means any present or future Affiliate or Subsidiary (as defined below) that has been designated by the Administrator to participate in the Plan. The Administrator may so designate any Affiliate or Subsidiary, or revoke any such designation, at any time and from time to time, either before or after the Plan is approved by the stockholders and may further designate such companies as participating in the 423 Component or the Non-423 Component. For purposes of the 423 Component, only Subsidiaries may be Designated Companies. The current list of Designated Companies is attached hereto as Appendix A.

The term “Fair Market Value of the Common Stock” on any given date means the fair market value of the Common Stock determined in good faith by the Administrator; provided, however, that if the Common Stock is admitted to quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”), NASDAQ Global Market or another national securities exchange, the determination shall be made by reference to the closing

8

price on such date. If there is no closing price for such date, the determination shall be made by reference to the last date preceding such date for which there is a closing price.

The term “Initial Public Offering” means the first underwritten, firm commitment public offering, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale by the Company of its Common Stock.

The term “Parent” means a “parent corporation” with respect to the Company, as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code.

The term “Participant” means an individual who is eligible as determined in Section 3 and who has complied with the provisions of Section 4.

The term “Registration Date” means the date on which the registration statement on Form S-1 that is filed by the Company with respect to its Initial Public Offering is declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The term “Subsidiary” means a “subsidiary corporation” with respect to the Company, as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code.

12.Rights on Termination of Employment. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, if a Participant’s employment terminates for any reason before the Exercise Date for any Offering, no contributions will be taken from any pay due and owing to the Participant and the balance in the Participant’s account will be paid to such Participant or, in the case of such Participant’s death, if permitted by the Administrator, to his or her designated beneficiary as if such Participant had withdrawn from the Plan under Section 7. An employee will be deemed to have terminated employment, for this purpose, if the corporation that employs him or her, having been a Designated Company, ceases to be an Affiliate or a Subsidiary, as applicable, or if the employee is transferred to any corporation other than the Company or a Designated Company.

9

An employee will not be deemed to have terminated employment for this purpose, if the employee is on an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness or for any other purpose approved by the Company, if the employee’s right to reemployment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the Administrator otherwise provides in writing.

13.Special Rules. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrator may adopt special rules applicable to the employees of a particular Designated Company, whenever the Administrator determines that such rules are necessary or appropriate for the implementation of the Plan in a jurisdiction where such Designated Company has employees; provided that if such rules are inconsistent with the requirements of Section 423(b) of the Code, these employees will participate in the Non-423 Component. Any special rules established pursuant to this Section 13 shall, to the extent possible, result in the employees subject to such rules having substantially the same rights as other Participants in the Plan.

14.Optionees Not Stockholders. Neither the granting of an Option to a Participant nor the deductions from his or her pay or other contributions shall deem such Participant to be a holder of the shares of Common Stock covered by an Option under the Plan until such shares have been purchased by and issued or transferred to him or her.

15.Rights Not Transferable. Rights under the Plan are not transferable by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and are exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant.

16.Application of Funds. All funds received or held by the Company under the Plan may be combined with other corporate funds and may be used for any corporate purpose; unless otherwise required under applicable law.

10

17.Adjustment in Case of Changes Affecting Common Stock. In the event of a subdivision of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the payment of a dividend in Common Stock or any other change affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares approved for the Plan and the share limitation set forth in Section 8 shall be equitably or proportionately adjusted to give proper effect to such event.

18.Amendment of the Plan. The Board may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan in any respect, except that without the approval within 12 months of such Board action by the stockholders, no amendment shall be made increasing the number of shares approved for the Plan or making any other change that would require stockholder approval in order for the 423 Component of the Plan, as amended, to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423(b) of the Code.

19.Insufficient Shares. If the total number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be purchased on any Exercise Date plus the number of shares purchased under previous Offerings under the Plan exceeds the maximum number of shares issuable under the Plan, the shares then available shall be apportioned among Participants in proportion to the amount of payroll deductions accumulated on behalf of each Participant that would otherwise be used to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date.

20.Termination of the Plan. The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Board. Upon termination of the Plan, all amounts in the accounts of Participants shall be promptly refunded. The Plan shall automatically terminate on the ten year anniversary of the Registration Date (as defined in Section 11).

21.Compliance with Law. The Company’s obligation to sell and deliver Common Stock under the Plan is subject to completion of any registration or qualification of the Common

11

Stock under any U.S. or non-U.S. local, state or federal securities or exchange control law or under rulings or regulations of the SEC or of any other governmental regulatory body, and to obtaining any approval or other clearance from any U.S. and non-U.S. local, state or federal governmental agency, which registration, qualification or approval the Company shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable. The Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Common Stock with the SEC or any other U.S. or non-U.S. securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of such stock.

22.Governing Law. This Plan and all Options and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope thereof, and as to all other matters shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, applied without regard to conflict of law principles.

23.Issuance of Shares. Shares may be issued upon exercise of an Option from authorized but unissued Common Stock, from shares held in the treasury of the Company, or from any other proper source.

24.Tax Withholding. Participation in the Plan is subject to any applicable U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state or local tax withholding requirements on income the Participant realizes in connection with the Plan. Each Participant agrees, by participating in the Plan, that the Company and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries shall have the right to deduct any Tax Liability from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant, including shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan. Where a Tax Liability arises in connection with the Plan, the Company

12

and/or a Designated Company may require that, as a condition of exercise of an Option and purchase of shares of Common Stock, a Participant must either:

(a)make a payment to the Company, or otherwise as the Company directs, of an amount equal to the Company’s estimate of the amount of the Tax Liability; or

(b)enter into arrangements acceptable to the Company to secure that such payment is made (whether by surrender of shares of Common Stock, net share issuance, the sale of shares of Common Stock or otherwise).

For these purposes, “Tax Liability” shall mean any amount of U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state or local income tax, social security (or similar) contributions, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account and/or other tax-related items related to the participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Participant, which the Company and/or an Affiliate or Subsidiary become liable to pay on the Participant’s behalf to the relevant authorities in any jurisdiction.

25.Notification Upon Sale of Shares. Each Participant who is subject to tax in the United States with respect to his or her participation in the Plan agrees, by entering the Plan, to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares purchased under the Plan where such disposition occurs within two years after the date of grant of the Option pursuant to which such shares were purchased or within one year after the date such shares were purchased.

13

26.Effective Date and Approval of Shareholders. The Plan shall take effect on date immediately preceding the Registration Date, subject to approval by the holders of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present or by written consent of the stockholders.

Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization and Description of Business

1.Organization and Description of Business

BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (“BridgeBio”) was established to identify and advance transformative medicines to treat patients who suffer from Mendelian diseases, which are diseases that arise from defects in a single gene, and cancers with clear genetic drivers. BridgeBio’s pipeline of programs ranges from early science to advanced clinical trials and its commercial organization is focused on delivering the company’s two approved therapies.

Since inception, BridgeBio has either created wholly-owned subsidiaries or made investments in certain controlled entities, including partially-owned subsidiaries for which BridgeBio has a majority voting interest, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which BridgeBio is the primary beneficiary (collectively, “we”, “our”, “us”). BridgeBio is headquartered in Palo Alto, California.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities, substantially all of which are denominated in U.S. dollars. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For consolidated entities where we own or are exposed to less than 100% of the economics, we record net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated statements of operations equal to the percentage of the economic or ownership interest retained in such entities by the respective noncontrolling parties.

In determining whether an entity is considered a controlled entity, we apply the VIE and voting interest entity (“VOE”) models. We assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on our power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and our obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Entities that do not qualify as a VIE are assessed for consolidation under the VOE model. Under the VOE model, BridgeBio consolidates the entity if it determines that it has a controlling financial interest in the entity through its ownership of greater than 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the entity and that other equity holders do not have substantive voting, participating or liquidation rights. We assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE or whether we have a majority voting interest for entities consolidated under the VOE model at the inception of the arrangement and at each reporting date.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, our results of operations and comprehensive loss, and our cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any other future annual or interim periods.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to conform to the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no net effect on cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities as previously reported.

Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, the novel strain of coronavirus that causes Coronavirus disease 19 (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. Since then, the resources of healthcare providers and hospitals have been focused on fighting the virus and any variants of the virus, and we have experienced delays in or temporary suspension of the enrollment of patients in our subsidiaries’ ongoing clinical trials. We additionally may experience delays in certain ongoing key program activities, including commencement of planned clinical trials, as well as non-clinical experiments and investigational new drug application-enabling good laboratory practice toxicology studies. The exact timing of delays and their overall impact on our business are currently unknown, and we are monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as it continues to evolve. We are continuing to actively monitor the situation and may take further precautionary and preemptive actions as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of public health and safety and that of our patient community, employees, partners, suppliers and stockholders. We cannot predict the effects that such actions, or the impact of COVID-19 on global business operations and economic conditions, may have on our business or strategy, including the effects on our ongoing and planned clinical development activities and prospects, or on our financial and operating results.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less from the purchase date to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in U.S. government money market funds.

Our restricted cash balance relates to cash and cash equivalents that we have pledged as collateral under certain lease agreements and letters of credit.

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 amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

	September 30, 2021		September 30, 2020
	(in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	180,347	$	366,967
Restricted cash — Included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”		176		—
Restricted cash — Included in “Other assets”		2,556		424
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the    condensed consolidated statements of cash flows	$	183,079	$	367,391

Investment in Equity Securities

Our investment in equity securities consists of equity securities of publicly held companies. We measure the fair value of our investment in equity securities at each reporting period in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments — Equity Securities. Changes in fair value resulting from observable price changes are included in “Other income (expense), net” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon sale of an equity security, any realized gain or loss is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

License Arrangements and Multiple-Element Arrangements

Revenue from non-refundable, upfront license or technology access payments under license arrangements that are not dependent on any future performance by us is recognized when control of the license is transferred to our customer and our customer is able to benefit from the license. If we have continuing obligations to perform under the arrangement, such fees are recognized over the estimated period of continuing performance obligation.

When we enter into license agreements, we assess whether the arrangements fall within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808) based on whether the arrangements involve joint operating activities and whether both parties have active participation in the arrangement and are exposed to significant risks and rewards. To the extent that the arrangement falls within the scope of ASC 808, we assess whether the activities between us and our partner fall within the scope of other accounting literature. If we conclude that payments for activities from our partner to us represent consideration from a customer, such as license fees and contract manufacturing and research and development activities, we account for those elements within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. However, if we conclude that our partner is not a customer for certain activities and associated payments, such as for certain collaborative research, development, manufacturing and commercial activities, we present such payments as a reduction of research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, based on where we present the underlying expense. Additionally, if we reimburse our collaboration partners for these activities, we present such reimbursements as research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, depending upon the nature of the underlying expense.

If our collaborative arrangement provides for the sharing of profits and losses with our partner for commercialization activities, the treatment of our share in the profit-sharing structure depends on who the selling party is. If we are the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our collaboration partner’s share of profits as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses and our collaboration partner’s share of loss as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses. If our partner is the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our share of profits as collaboration revenue and our share of losses as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses.

Revenue Recognition

For elements of those arrangements that we determine should be accounted for under ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy our performance obligation. We apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer.

At inception of the arrangement, once it is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and then identify the performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation, on a relative standalone selling price basis, when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the standalone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. These key assumptions may include forecasted revenue or costs, development timelines, discount rates and probabilities of clinical and regulatory success.

License Fees: For arrangements that include a grant of a license to our intellectual property, we consider whether the license grant is distinct from the other performance obligations included in the arrangement. Generally, we would conclude that the license is distinct if the customer is able to benefit from the license with the resources available to it. For licenses that are distinct, we recognize revenues from nonrefundable, upfront license fees and other consideration allocated to the license when the license term has begun and we have provided all necessary information regarding the underlying intellectual property to the customer, which generally occurs at or near the inception of the arrangement. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, we determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time. If the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time, we use judgment in determining the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from the allocated transaction price. We evaluate the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjust the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.

Development and Regulatory Milestone Payments: At the inception of each arrangement that includes development and regulatory milestone payments, we evaluate whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimate the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within our or our collaboration partners control, such as non-operational developmental and regulatory approvals, are generally not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of achieving such development and regulatory milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjust our estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Sales-based Milestone Payments and Royalties: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the volume of sales, we will determine whether the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties or sales-based milestones relate and if such is the case, we will recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Product supply services: Arrangements that include a promise for the future supply of drug product for either clinical development or commercial supply at the licensee’s discretion are generally considered as options. We will assess if these options provide a material right to the licensee and if so, they are accounted for as separate performance obligations and recognized when the future goods or services related to the option are provided or the option expires.

Product Sales: Revenue is recognized when our customers obtain control of the product and revenue is adjusted to reflect discounts, chargebacks, rebates, returns and other allowances associated to the respective sales.

Milestone and Royalty Payments Under Asset Acquisitions

Under our asset acquisitions, we could be required to pay development, regulatory and sales-based milestone payments if certain substantive milestones are met. We generally expense development milestones as incurred. For regulatory or sales-based milestones that are associated with an approved asset, we capitalize the milestone payments related to the asset purchase as a finite-lived intangible asset provided that the milestone payment is recoverable based on our estimated projected cash flows or if the asset has alternative future use. Such intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis, beginning on the date the asset is acquired, which would generally be the regulatory approval date. We assess the carrying value of our finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets is measured by comparison of the carrying value of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate.

We could also be required to pay royalties based on actual net sales under in-licensing agreements and asset acquisitions. Such royalties are expensed in the period of sale of the product.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, accruals for research and development activities and contingent clinical, development, regulatory and sales-based milestone payments in our in-licensing agreements and asset acquisitions, the valuation of our stock-based awards, accruals for performance-based milestone compensation arrangements, accounting for stock-based award modifications, the present value of lease payments of our leases on the respective lease commencement dates, the expected recoverability and estimated useful lives of our long-lived assets, the fair value of the LianBio Warrants (see Note 7) and the fair value of the LEO call option liability (see Note 7). We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The guidance simplifies the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is either through a modified retrospective method or a full retrospective method of transition.

Effective January 1, 2021, we early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method with respect to our 2027 Notes. As a result of the adoption, we no longer separately account for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes by allocating the proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion options, or equity component; and, instead, account for our 2027 Notes wholly as debt. This also resulted in the derecognition of a deferred tax liability, which represented a basis difference in the face value of the 2027 Notes due to the previous allocation of portion of the proceeds to the equity component. Additionally, we recorded a cumulative adjustment to decrease our opening accumulated deficit balance as of January 1, 2021, representing a reduction in previously recorded interest expense accretion to the principal amount of our 2027 Notes through December 31, 2020. The following table summarizes the adjustments made to our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2021 as a result of applying the modified retrospective method in adopting ASU 2020-06:

	As Reported			Adjustments						As Adjusted
	December 31, 2020			Account 2027 Notes wholly as debt			Cumulative impact on interest expense			January 1, 2021
	(in thousands)
2027 Notes, net	$	383,436		$	169,173		$	(14,328	)	$	538,281
Other long-term liabilities (1)		9,520			(1,095	)	$	—			8,425
Additional paid-in capital		1,021,344			(168,078	)		—			853,266
Accumulated deficit		(888,755	)		—			14,328			(874,427	)

(1)Related deferred tax liability was recorded as part of “Other long-term liabilities.”

Under this transition method, we do not need to restate the comparative periods in transition and will continue to present financial information and disclosures for periods before January 1, 2021 in accordance with the pre-ASU 2020-06 guidance under ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options.

The adoption did not impact previously reported amounts in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows and our basic and diluted net loss per share amounts.

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the periods presented.

There are uncertainties on the fair value measurement of the instruments classified under Level 3 due to the use of unobservable inputs and interrelationships between these unobservable inputs, which could result in higher or lower fair value measurements.

Marketable Securities

The fair value of our marketable securities classified within Level 2 is based upon observable inputs that may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications.

Investment in Equity Securities

We classify our investment in equity securities, which are currently equity securities of publicly held companies, within Level 1 as the fair values of these equity securities are derived from observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

LEO Call Option Liability

The valuation of the LEO call option contained unobservable inputs that reflected our own assumptions for which there was little, if any, market activity at the measurement date. Accordingly, the LEO call option liability was remeasured to fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs that were classified as Level 3 inputs. The uncertainty of the fair value measurement due to the use of unobservable inputs and interrelationships between these unobservable inputs could have resulted in higher or lower fair value measurement.

On March 30, 2021, LEO provided a notice of termination of the LEO call option effective April 15, 2021. As a result and based on the facts and circumstances that existed as of March 31, 2021, we evaluated that the likelihood of LEO exercising said option was remote and we remeasured the LEO call option liability to zero as of March 31, 2021. The following table sets forth a summary of the change in the estimated fair value of the LEO call option recorded in “Other income (expense), net”:

	Total
	(in thousands)
Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	5,550
Change in fair value upon notice of termination   of the LEO call option		(5,550	)
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	—

Historically, we estimated the fair value of the LEO call option by estimating the fair value of various clinical, regulatory, and sales milestones based on the estimated risk and probability of achievement of each milestone, and allocated the value using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions as of December 31, 2020:

	December 31,
	2020
Probability of milestone achievement	12.0%-84.0%
Discount rate	0.1%-14.3%
Expected term (in years)	1.25-6.25
Expected volatility	80.0%-95.0%
Risk-free interest rate	1.16%-1.53%

Eidos Embedded Derivative Liability in Loan Agreement

For the SVB and Hercules Loan entered into in November 2019 and prepaid in April 2021 (see Note 9), Eidos determined that the requirement to pay a fee upon certain events (“Success Fee”) is an embedded derivative liability to be measured at fair value. The fair value of the derivative was determined based on an income approach that identified the cash flows using a “with-and-without” valuation methodology. The inputs used to determine the estimated fair value of the derivative instrument were based primarily on the probability of an underlying event triggering the embedded derivative occurring and the timing of such event. The Success Fee survives the prepayment of the SVB and Hercules Loan per the terms of the contract; and, therefore, we continue to carry the embedded derivative liability at its fair value until it is settled or it expires.

Notes

The fair values of our 2.25% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and our 2.50% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) (collectively, the “Notes”, see Note 9), which differ from their respective carrying values, are determined by prices for the Notes observed in market trading. The market for trading of the Notes is not considered to be an active market and therefore the estimate of fair value is based on Level 2 inputs. As of September 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of our 2029 Notes and 2027 Notes, which have aggregate face values of $747.5 million and $550.0 million, respectively, were $647.7 million and $759.8 million, respectively, based on their market prices on the last trading day for the period. As of December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes was $997.9 million based on the market price on the last trading day for the period.

Term Loans

The fair value of our outstanding term loans (see Note 9) is estimated using the net present value of the payments, discounted at an interest rate that is consistent with a market interest rate, which is a Level 2 input. The estimated fair value of our outstanding term loans approximates the carrying amount, as the term loans bear a floating rate that approximates the market interest rate.

There have been no significant realized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities for the periods presented. There were no available-for-sale securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. As of September 30, 2021, our short-term marketable securities have average contractual maturities of approximately seven months. We believe that we have the ability to realize the full value of all of these investments upon their respective maturities.

From the date of BridgeBio’s initial investment until June 22, 2018, the Eidos initial public offering (“IPO”) closing date, Eidos was determined to be a VIE and BridgeBio consolidated Eidos as the primary beneficiary. Subsequent to the Eidos IPO, BridgeBio determined that Eidos was no longer a VIE due to its having sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. From June 22, 2018 through January 26, 2021, BridgeBio determined that it held greater than 50% of the voting shares of Eidos and there were no other parties with substantive participating, liquidation or kick-out rights. BridgeBio consolidated Eidos under the VOE model until January 26, 2021, the date on which the Merger Transactions (as defined below) were consummated.

On August 2, 2019, Eidos filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “2019 Shelf”) with the SEC in relation to the registration of common stock, preferred stock, warrants and units of any combination thereof. Eidos also simultaneously entered into an Open Market Sale AgreementSM with Jefferies LLC and SVB Leerink LLC (collectively, the “Eidos Sales Agents”), to provide for the offering, issuance and sale by Eidos of up to an aggregate offering price of $100.0 million of its common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings under the 2019 Shelf and subject to the limitations thereof (the “2019 Sales Agreement”). Eidos would pay to the applicable Eidos Sales Agent cash commissions of up to 3.0 percent of the gross proceeds of sales of common stock under the 2019 Sales Agreement. Eidos issued 448,755 shares under this offering and received $24.1 million of net proceeds in February 2020.

On October 5, 2020, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Eidos, Globe Merger Sub I, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Globe Merger Sub II, Inc. (the two latter companies being our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries), providing for, in a series of merger transactions (the “Merger Transactions”), the acquisition by us of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Eidos (the “Eidos Common Stock”) other than shares of Eidos Common Stock that (i) were owned by Eidos as treasury stock, (ii) were owned by us and our subsidiaries and, in each case, not owned on behalf of third parties and (iii) were subject to an Eidos Restricted Share Award (as defined below). Under the Merger Agreement, the stockholders of Eidos had the right to receive, at their election, either 1.85 shares of our common stock or $73.26 in cash per Eidos share in the transaction, subject to proration as necessary to ensure that the aggregate amount of cash consideration was no greater than $175.0 million. In addition, immediately prior to the effective time of the merger of Merger Sub with and into Eidos (the “Effective Time”), (i) each option to purchase Eidos Common Stock (an “Eidos Option”) were to be converted into an option, on the same terms and conditions applicable to such Eidos Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, to purchase a specified number of shares of BridgeBio common stock, calculated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and (ii) each outstanding award of shares of Eidos Common Stock that was subject to forfeiture conditions (subject to certain exceptions) (each, an “Eidos Restricted Share Award”) was to be converted into an award, on the same terms and conditions applicable to such Eidos Restricted Share Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, covering a number of whole restricted shares of BridgeBio common stock, calculated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, with any fractional shares being paid out to the holder of such Eidos Restricted Share Award in cash (conversion of the Eidos Option and the Eidos Restricted Share Awards collectively referred to as the “Eidos Awards Exchange”).

On January 19, 2021, the stockholders of each of BridgeBio and Eidos voted to approve all proposals related to the Merger Transactions and on January 26, 2021, we closed and completed the Merger Transactions. The acquisition of the Eidos Common Stock was settled through an aggregate consideration of $1,651.6 million, which was comprised of cash payments of $21.3 million and the issuance of approximately 26,156,446 shares of our common stock, with a total fair value of $1,630.3 million. We accounted for the purchase of the outstanding Eidos Common Stock as acquisition of noncontrolling interest in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). Under ASC 810, the carrying amount of the Eidos noncontrolling interest was adjusted to reflect the change in our ownership interest, and the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid, and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest was adjusted was recognized in equity. Such difference recognized in equity amounted to $(1,613.4) million and recorded within “Additional paid-in capital” during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We continued to recognize the assets and liabilities of Eidos at their respective historical values as of the closing date of the Merger Transactions.

Through the closing of the Merger Transactions, we have incurred transaction costs aggregating $70.7 million that were recorded in “Additional paid-in capital” during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Upon closing and completion of the Merger Transactions with Eidos, Eidos became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Eidos’ common stock ceased to trade on The Nasdaq Global Select Market prior to the opening of business on January 26, 2021 and Eidos’ Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act was filed with the SEC on February 5, 2021.

Noncontrolling Interests

6.Noncontrolling Interests

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had both redeemable convertible noncontrolling interests and noncontrolling interests in consolidated partially-owned entities, for which BridgeBio has a majority voting interest under the VOE model and for which BridgeBio is the primary beneficiary under the VIE model. These balances are reported as separate components outside stockholders’ equity (deficit) in “Redeemable convertible noncontrolling interests” and as part of stockholders’ equity (deficit) in “Noncontrolling interests” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We adjust the carrying value of noncontrolling interests to reflect the book value attributable to noncontrolling shareholders of consolidated partially-owned entities when there is a change in the ownership during the respective reporting period and such adjustments are recorded to additional paid-in capital. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the adjustments in the aggregate amounted to $(0.5) million and $(0.2) million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the adjustments in the aggregate amounted to $1.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively. All such adjustments are disclosed within the “Transfers from (to) noncontrolling interests” line item in the condensed consolidated statements of redeemable convertible noncontrolling interests and stockholders’ equity (deficit).

As of December 31, 2020, the significant components of the noncontrolling interest balances pertained mainly to Eidos, which amounted to $40.2 million. Upon closing and completion of the Merger Transactions with Eidos on January 26, 2021 (see Note 5), the balance of the noncontrolling interest in Eidos was reduced to zero.

LianBio

LianBio, a related party, is a global and science-driven biopharmaceutical company founded by Perceptive Advisors. LianBio is focused on sourcing the best opportunities and creating new therapeutic paradigms for first-in-class programs to bring the world’s leading science to Greater China and major Asian markets. In October 2019, BBP LLC entered into an exclusivity agreement with LianBio, pursuant to which BBP LLC received equity in LianBio representing a 10% ownership interest, valued at approximately $3.8 million at the time of the transaction. The equity interest was issued in consideration for certain rights of first negotiation and rights of first offer granted by BBP LLC to LianBio with respect to specified transactions covering intellectual property rights owned or controlled by BBP LLC or its affiliates in certain territories outside the United States. The equity interest gave BBP LLC the right to appoint or remove one director to the board of directors of LianBio. This right will terminate in the event that LianBio consummates an IPO.

Our 10% ownership interest was reduced to zero as of December 31, 2019 after recognizing our equity share in the net losses of LianBio for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our equity method investment in LianBio represented approximately 6% of LianBio’s fully-diluted equity. We continue to account for our investment in LianBio under the equity method as we have the right to appoint or remove one director to the board of directors of LianBio, and therefore have significant influence over LianBio. The carrying amount of the investment in LianBio in the condensed consolidated balance sheets represents our maximum loss exposure related to our investment in LianBio. There were no impairments related to the LianBio investment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Pursuant to a License Agreement entered into in October 2019 between QED Therapeutics, Inc. (“QED”) and LianBio, QED also received warrants which entitle QED to purchase 10% of the then-fully diluted shares of one of the subsidiaries of LianBio upon achievement of certain contingent development milestones.

In October 2021, the warrants held by QED to purchase shares of one of the subsidiaries of LianBio were converted into a warrant to purchase 347,569 shares of LianBio. On November 1, 2021, LianBio completed its IPO and, as a result, BBP LLC’s ownership in LianBio was reduced to approximately 4.7% of LianBio’s equity.

PellePharm

On November 19, 2018, PellePharm, Inc. entered into the LEO Agreement, pursuant to which LEO Pharma (“LEO”) was granted an exclusive, irrevocable option to acquire PellePharm. The LEO call option was exercisable by LEO on or before the occurrence of certain events relating to PellePharm’s clinical development programs and no later than July 30, 2021. We accounted for the LEO call option as a current liability (the “LEO Call Option Liability”, see Note 3) in our condensed consolidated financial statements because BridgeBio was obligated to sell its shares in PellePharm to LEO at a pre-determined price, if the option were to be exercised. We remeasured the LEO call option to fair value at each subsequent balance sheet date until the LEO call option either was exercised, terminated or had expired.

Prior to the LEO Agreement, BridgeBio consolidated PellePharm under the VIE model. The date the LEO Agreement was entered into was determined to be a VIE reconsideration event. Based on our assessment, we had concluded that PellePharm remained a VIE after the reconsideration event as it did not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. However, based on the then changes to PellePharm’s governance structure and board of directors composition as a result of the LEO Agreement, BridgeBio was no longer the primary beneficiary as it no longer had the power over the key decisions that most significantly impact PellePharm’s economic performance. Accordingly, BridgeBio deconsolidated PellePharm on November 19, 2018. After the deconsolidation in November 2018, PellePharm was considered a related party of BridgeBio.

Subsequent to the deconsolidation of PellePharm in 2018, we accounted for our retained common stock investment as an equity method investment and our retained preferred stock investment as a cost method investment. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-01 in 2019, we accounted for the investment in PellePharm preferred stock as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. As of December 31, 2020, the aggregate carrying amount of our investments in PellePharm was zero. After the equity method investment was reduced to zero during the three months ended March 31, 2019, BridgeBio subsequently recorded its percentage of net losses consistent with its preferred stock ownership percentage of 61.9% until the equity security investment was also reduced to zero during the remaining period of 2019. The carrying amount of BridgeBio’s investment in PellePharm in the condensed consolidated balance sheets through March 31, 2021 represented its maximum loss exposure related to its VIE investment in PellePharm. There were no impairments related to our PellePharm investment through March 31, 2021.

LEO terminated the LEO Agreement effective as of April 15, 2021. The date the LEO Agreement was terminated was determined to be a VIE reconsideration event. Based on our assessment, we continue to conclude that PellePharm remains a VIE after the reconsideration event as it does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. Based on the changes to PellePharm’s board of directors composition as a result of the termination of the LEO Agreement, BridgeBio became the primary beneficiary as it has the power over the key decisions that most significantly impact PellePharm’s economic performance and it has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from PellePharm that could potentially be significant to PellePharm through its common and preferred stock interest in PellePharm. Accordingly, BridgeBio consolidated PellePharm effective on April 15, 2021.

8.Commitments and Contingencies

Milestone Compensation Arrangements

We have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants, whose vesting is contingent upon meeting various milestones, with fixed monetary amounts known at inception that can be settled in the form of cash or equity at our sole discretion. We also have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants as part of the 2020 Stock and Equity Award Exchange Program (the “Exchange Program”, see Note 15). The compensation arrangements under the Exchange Program are to be settled in the form of equity only. Performance-based milestone awards that are settled in the form of equity are satisfied in the form of fully-vested restricted stock awards (“RSAs”). We accrue for such contingent compensation when the related milestone is probable of achievement and is recorded in “Accrued compensation and benefits” for the current portion and in “Other long-term liabilities” for the noncurrent portion in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. There is no accrued compensation expense for performance-based milestone awards that are assessed to be not probable of achievement. The table below shows our commitment for the potential milestone amounts and the accruals for milestones deemed probable of achievement as of September 30, 2021.

	Potential Fixed Monetary Amount		Accrued Amount (1)
Settlement Type	(in thousands)
Cash	$	10,799	$	985
Stock (2)		121,128		11,973
Cash or stock at our sole discretion		108,928		3,949
Total	$	240,855	$	16,907

(1)Amount recorded for performance-based milestone awards that are probable of achievement.

(2)Includes the performance-based milestone awards that were granted as part of the Exchange Program further discussed in Note 15.

Other Research and Development and Commercial Agreements

We may also enter into contracts in the normal course of business with clinical research organizations for clinical trials, with contract manufacturing organizations for clinical supplies and with other vendors for preclinical studies, supplies and other services and products for commercial and operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice with potential termination charges. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no material amounts accrued related to termination charges.

Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, board members, officers and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by us, our negligence or willful misconduct, violations of law, or intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees that will require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees. No material demands have been made upon us to provide indemnification under such agreements, and thus, there are no claims that we are aware of that could have a material effect on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss, or statements of cash flows.

We also maintain director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from our obligation to indemnify our directors. To date, we have not incurred any material costs and have not accrued any liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of these provisions.

Contingencies

From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

Notes

2029 Notes

On January 28, 2021, we issued an aggregate of $717.5 million principal amount of our 2029 Notes pursuant to an Indenture dated January 28, 2021 (the “2029 Notes Indenture”), between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “2029 Notes Trustee”), in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers (the “2021 Note Offering”) pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The 2029 Notes issued in the 2021 Note Offering include $67.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes sold to the initial purchasers (the “2029 Notes Initial Purchasers”) pursuant to the exercise in part of the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers’ option to purchase $97.5 million principal amount of additional 2029 Notes. On January 28, 2021, the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers exercised the remaining portion of their option to purchase $30.0 million principal amount of additional 2029 Notes. The sale of those additional 2029 Notes closed on February 2, 2021.

The 2029 Notes will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2021, at a rate of 2.25% per year. The 2029 Notes will mature on February 1, 2029, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2029 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of BridgeBio’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of BridgeBio’s common stock, at our election.

We received net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering of approximately $731.4 million, after deducting the 2029 Notes Initial Purchasers’ discount (there were no direct offering expenses borne by us for the 2029 Notes). We used approximately $61.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering to pay for the cost of the 2021 Capped Call Transactions described below and approximately $50.0 million to pay for the repurchase of shares of BridgeBio common stock described below. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include research and development and clinical development costs to support the advancement of our drug candidates, including the continued growth of our commercial and medical affairs capabilities, the conduct of clinical trials and preclinical research and development activities; working capital; capital expenditures; repayment of outstanding indebtedness; general and administrative expenses; and other general corporate purposes.

A holder of 2029 Notes may convert all or any portion of its 2029 Notes at its option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding November 1, 2028 in multiples of $1,000 only under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2021 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the “trading price” (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

If we call such notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture.

On or after November 1, 2028 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, a holder may convert all or any portion of its 2029 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing.

The conversion rate will initially be 10.3050 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $97.04 per share of BridgeBio’s common stock, for a total of approximately 7,702,988 shares).

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or if we deliver a notice of redemption, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2029 Notes in connection with such a corporate event. The maximum number of shares issuable should there be an increase in the conversion rate is 11,361,851 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock.

We may not redeem the 2029 Notes prior to February 6, 2026. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2029 Notes, at our option, on a redemption date occurring on or after February 6, 2026 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, under certain circumstances. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2029 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2029 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the 2029 Notes Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the Notes plus accrued special interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable. The 2029 Notes are our general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2029 Notes; equal in right of payment with all of our liabilities that are not so subordinated, including our 2027 Notes; effectively junior to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Notes, we incurred approximately $16.1 million of debt issuance costs, which consisted of initial purchasers’ discounts. This was recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2029 Notes or approximately their eight-year term.

2027 Notes

On March 9, 2020, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $550.0 million of our 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), pursuant to an Indenture dated March 9, 2020 (the “2027 Notes Indenture”), between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “2027 Notes Trustee”), in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers (the “2020 Note Offering”) pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 2027 Notes issued in the 2020 Note Offering include $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes sold to the initial purchasers (the “2027 Notes Initial Purchasers”) resulting from the exercise in full of their option to purchase additional 2027 Notes.

The 2027 Notes will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2020, at a rate of 2.50% per year. The 2027 Notes will mature on March 15, 2027, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The 2027 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of BridgeBio’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of BridgeBio’s common stock, at our election.

We received net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering of approximately $537.0 million, after deducting the 2027 Notes Initial Purchasers’ discount and offering expenses. We used approximately $49.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering to pay for the cost of the 2020 Capped Call Transactions described below, and approximately $75.0 million to pay for the repurchase of shares of BridgeBio common stock described below. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the 2020 Note Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including for its commercial organization and launch preparations. We may also use any remaining net proceeds to fund possible acquisitions of, or investments in, complementary businesses, products, services and technologies.

A holder of 2027 Notes may convert all or any portion of its 2027 Notes at its option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2026 in multiples of $1,000 only under the following circumstances:

During any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day (the “Conversion Price Condition”);

During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the “trading price” (as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day (the “Conversion Rate Condition”); or

Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture.

On or after December 15, 2026 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, a holder may convert all or any portion of its 2027 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing.

During each of the calendar quarters ending March 31 and June 30, 2021, the 2027 Notes were eligible for conversion at the option of the holders as the Conversion Price Condition was met during the period.

The conversion rate will initially be 23.4151 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $42.71 per share of BridgeBio’s common stock, for a total of approximately 12,878,305 shares). Based on the closing price of our common stock on September 30, 2021, the if-converted value of the 2027 Notes exceeded its principal amount by approximately $53.6 million.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2027 Notes in connection with such a corporate event. The maximum number of shares issuable should there be an increase in the conversion rate is 17,707,635 shares of BridgeBio’s common stock.

We may not redeem the 2027 Notes prior to the maturity date, and no sinking fund is provided for the 2027 Notes. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2027 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2027 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The 2027 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the 2027 Notes Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the 2027 Notes plus accrued special interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable. The 2027 Notes are our general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2027 Notes; equal in right of payment with all of BridgeBio’s liabilities that are not so subordinated, including our 2029 Notes; effectively junior to any of BridgeBio’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

In accounting for the issuance of the 2027 Notes in 2020 under ASC 470-20, we separately accounted for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes by allocating the proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion options, or equity component, due to our ability to settle the 2027 Notes in cash, BridgeBio common stock, or a combination of cash and BridgeBio common stock at our option. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The allocation was performed in a manner that reflected BridgeBio’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate for similar debt. The equity component of the 2027 Notes was recognized as a debt discount and represented the difference between the gross proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Notes and the fair value of the liability of the 2027 Notes on the date of issuance. The equity component would not be remeasured as long as it continued to meet the conditions for equity classification.

In connection with the issuance of the 2027 Notes, we incurred approximately $13.0 million of debt issuance costs, which primarily consisted of initial purchasers’ discounts and legal and other professional fees. We allocated these costs to the liability and equity components based on the allocation of the proceeds. The portion of these costs allocated to the equity component totaling approximately $4.1 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in 2020. The portion of these costs allocated to the liability component totaling approximately $8.9 million was recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and was amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2027 Notes or approximately their seven-year term.

As discussed in Note 2, effective January 1, 2021, we early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method and, as a result, we are no longer required to separately account for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes, and, instead, account for our 2027 Notes wholly as debt. Comparative information with respect to our 2027 Notes disclosed below continue to be presented in accordance with the pre-ASU 2020-06 guidance under ASC 470-20.

Capped Call and Share Repurchase Transactions with Respect to the Notes

On each of January 25, 2021 and March 4, 2020, concurrently with the pricing of the 2029 Notes and 2027 Notes, respectively, we entered into separate privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “2021 Capped Call Transactions” and the “2020 Capped Call Transactions”, respectively, together the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions (the “Capped Call Counterparties”). We used approximately $61.3 million and $49.3 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering and 2020 Note Offering, respectively, to pay for the cost of the respective Capped Call Transactions. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to BridgeBio’s common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap initially equal to $131.58 for the 2021 Capped Call Transactions and $62.12 for the 2020 Capped Call Transactions (both of which represented a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of BridgeBio’s common stock on the date of the Capped Call Transactions) and are subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. The 2021 Capped Calls and 2020 Capped Calls cover 7,702,988 shares and 12,878,305 shares, respectively, of our common stock (subject to anti-dilution and certain other adjustments), which are the same number of shares of common stock that initially underlie the Notes. The 2021 Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $97.04 per share, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2029 Notes. The 2020 Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $42.71 per share, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2027 Notes. The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions, entered into by us with the Capped Call Counterparties, and are not part of the terms of the Notes.

These Capped Call instruments meet the conditions outlined in ASC 815-40 to be classified in stockholders’ equity and are not subsequently remeasured as long as the conditions for equity classification continue to be met. We recorded a reduction to additional paid-in capital of approximately $61.3 million and $49.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the premium payments for the Capped Call Transactions.

Additionally, we used approximately $50.0 million and $75.0 million of the net proceeds from the 2021 Note Offering and 2020 Note Offering to repurchase 759,993 shares and 2,414,681 shares, respectively, of our common stock concurrently with the closing of the Note Offerings from certain of the Notes’ Initial Purchasers in privately negotiated transactions. The agreed purchase price per share of common stock in the repurchases were $65.79 and $31.06, which were the last reported sale prices per share of our common stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) on January 25, 2021 and March 4, 2020, respectively. The shares repurchased were recorded as treasury stock.

Term Loans

Hercules Loan and Security Agreement

We have a Loan and Security Agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”) under which we borrowed principal amounts of $35.0 million (“Tranche I”), $20.0 million (“Tranche II”), $20.0 million (“Tranche III”) and $25.0 million (“Tranche IV”), all of which remain outstanding. The Loan and Security Agreement has been amended from time to time.

In March 2020, we executed the Third Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement primarily to allow us to issue our 2027 Notes and to enter into the Capped Call and Share Repurchase Transactions.

In April 2020, we entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, extended the interest-only period and maturity date of the term loans, provided for certain interest rate reduction and increased the available loan facilities under the Loan and Security Agreement. There were no gains or losses arising from the amendment, which is considered a debt modification.

In January 2021, we executed the Fifth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement primarily to allow us to issue our 2029 Notes and to enter into the related 2021 Capped Call and share repurchase transactions.

In April 2021, we executed the Sixth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Hercules Term Loan”), which, among other things:

(1)provided for an additional principal borrowing amounting to $25.0 million (the proceeds of which were received by us as the Tranche IV upon the execution of the Amended Hercules Term Loan);

(2)extended the interest-only period under the Loan and Security Agreement to June 1, 2024 (the “Amended Amortization Date”) which may be further extended to June 1, 2025, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan;

(3)extended the maturity date for the term loans under the Loan and Security Agreement to May 1, 2025, which may be further extended to May 1, 2026, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan;

(4)provided for an interest rate on the outstanding principal balance equal to the greater of (x) a floating interest rate linked to the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 4.40% and (y) 7.65% (7.65% as of September 30, 2021), payable monthly; and

(5)provided for additional available facilities aggregating to $185.0 million, which comprises of: (a) an additional incremental loan in the amount of $70.0 million, available no later than June 15, 2022, (b) an additional incremental loan following the achievement of certain performance milestones in the amount of $40.0 million, available no later than September 15, 2022, and (c) an additional $75.0 million discretionary incremental tranche, subject to Hercules’ approval in its sole and absolute discretion, available no later than December 15, 2023.

The Amended Hercules Term Loan also provides us with greater flexibility to incur additional convertible debt and repurchase and/or redeem convertible debt, each subject to certain conditions set forth in the Amended Hercules Term Loan. There have not been any additional draws on the $185.0 million additional available facilities as of September 30, 2021. There were no gains or losses arising from the Amended Hercules Term Loan, which is considered a debt modification.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized interest expense related to the Amended Hercules Term Loan of $2.5 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of which $0.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, relate to amortization of debt discount and issuance costs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized interest expense related to the Hercules Term Loan of $2.0 million and $5.4 million, respectively, of which $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, relate to amortization of debt discount and issuance costs.

Silicon Valley Bank and Hercules Loan Agreement

Eidos entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and Hercules Capital, Inc. (the “SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement”), under which Eidos borrowed a principal amount of $17.5 million (the “Tranche A loan”) in November 2019. The Tranche A loan was subject to an interest rate equal to the greater of either (i) 8.50% or (ii) 3.25% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal (8.50% during the relevant period in 2021) and had an original maturity date of October 2, 2023.

The Tranche A loan also provided for a final payment charge equal to 5.95% multiplied by the amount funded to be paid when the loan becomes due or upon prepayment of the facility. If Eidos elected to prepay the Tranche A loan, there was also a prepayment fee of between 0.75% and 2.50% of the principal amount being prepaid depending on the timing and circumstances of prepayment. The Tranche A loan was secured by substantially all of Eidos’ assets, except Eidos’ intellectual property, which was the subject of a negative pledge.

In January 2021, Eidos entered into an amendment to the SVB and Hercules Loan Agreement primarily to allow Eidos to enter into the Merger Transactions. The amendment also required Eidos to maintain a certain amount of cash and cash equivalents with SVB.

The Tranche A loan was prepaid in full in April 2021 using a portion of the proceeds from Tranche IV under the Amended Hercules Term Loan discussed above. Loss on prepayment of the Tranche A loan recognized by Eidos was not material. Interest expense on the Tranche A loan was not material in 2021 through the prepayment date, as well as for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

License and Collaboration Agreement with Helsinn

License And Collaboration Agreement [Abstract]

License and Collaboration Agreement with Helsinn

10.License and Collaboration Agreement with Helsinn

On March 29, 2021, QED entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Helsinn Healthcare S.A. (“HHC”) and Helsinn Therapeutics (U.S.), Inc. (“HTU”, collectively with HHC, “Helsinn,” and together with QED, the “Parties”) (the “QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement”), pursuant to which QED granted to HHC exclusive licenses to develop, manufacture and commercialize QED’s product candidate, infigratinib, in oncology and all other indications except achondroplasia or any other skeletal dysplasias, worldwide, except for the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong and Macau (“Greater China”), and under which QED will receive a co-exclusive license to co-commercialize infigratinib in the United States in the licensed indications. Under this agreement, Helsinn is likewise entitled to a right of first negotiation with respect to specific territories subject to the occurrence of a contingent event. As part of this agreement, QED is also required to transfer inventory within the transitional period, as described in the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement. The effectiveness of the transactions contemplated under this agreement was subject to specified conditions, including the expiration or early termination of any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”). The waiting period under the HSR Act ended on April 16, 2021 and the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement became effective as of that date.

Under the terms of the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement, QED is eligible to receive payments totaling up to approximately $2.45 billion in the aggregate, including over $100.0 million in upfront, regulatory and launch milestone payments, and the remainder subject to the achievement of specified commercial milestones, as well as tiered royalties in the high teens as a percentage of adjusted net sales by Helsinn of the licensed products sold worldwide, outside of the United States and Greater China. Upon approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), QED and HTU will co-commercialize infigratinib in the licensed indications in the United States and will share profits and losses on a 50:50 basis. In May 2021, we received such FDA approval for an oncology indication in the United States and effective as of that date, sharing of profits and losses commenced. QED and Helsinn will share global, excluding Greater China, research and development costs for infigratinib in the licensed indications at a rate of 40% for QED and 60% for Helsinn.

The QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement is considered to be within the scope of ASC 808 as the parties are active participants and are exposed to the risks and rewards of the collaborative activity, and partially within the scope of ASC 606, for the units of account that Helsinn is identified as a customer. For the units of account in the collaboration arrangement that do not represent a vendor-customer relationship, including the performance of research and development and commercialization services, we determined that ASC 606 is not appropriate to apply by analogy and applied a reasonable and rational accounting policy election that faithfully depicts the transfer of services to the collaboration partner over the estimated performance period. Reimbursement payments from Helsinn associated with profit and cost sharing provisions are recognized as the related expense is incurred and classified as an offset to the underlying expense and excluded from the transaction price.

We evaluated the terms of the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement and identified Helsinn as a customer with the following two distinct performance obligations: (1) exclusive licenses to develop, manufacture, and commercialize the underlying product, and (2) transfer of inventory within the transitional supply period.

We consider the future potential regulatory and launch milestones to be variable consideration. We constrain variable consideration to the extent that it is not probable that it will result in a significant revenue reversal when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. We recognize consideration relating to sales-based milestones and royalties when the subsequent sales occur.

We determined the initial transaction price for the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement to be $46.0 million, comprising of $20.0 million nonrefundable upfront license fee, $1.0 million for sale of certain existing inventory, and $25.0 million milestone for the first launch of the first indication of infigratinib in the U.S.

The remaining future potential milestone payments were not included in the transaction price as they were determined to be fully constrained under ASC 606. We determined that the achievement of such regulatory and launch milestones are contingent upon success in future clinical trials and regulatory approvals, which are not within our control and are uncertain at this stage. We expect that the royalty arrangements and commercial-based milestones will be recognized when the sales occur or the milestones are achieved pursuant to the sales-based royalty exception under ASC 606-10-55-65 because the license is the predominant item to which the royalties or commercial-based milestones relate. We will re-evaluate the transaction price at each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur.

Based on the distinct performance obligations under the QED-Helsinn License and Collaboration Agreement, we allocated the $46.0 million transaction price based on relative stand-alone selling prices of each of our performance obligations as $44.4 million for the licenses and $1.6 million for the transfer of inventory. For the delivery of the licenses, we based the stand-alone selling price on a discounted cash flow approach and considered several factors including, but not limited to, forecasted revenue and costs, development timelines, discount rate and probabilities of clinical and regulatory success. For the transfer of inventory, we based the stand-alone selling price on the actual costs incurred by us to purchase or manufacture the inventory as well as the average compensation of employees estimated to be incurred over the performance period.

As of September 30, 2021, we have provided all necessary information to Helsinn for it to benefit from the license under the license term and have completed the transfer of inventory. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $1.6 million and $46.0 million, respectively, in license revenue under these units of account accounted for under ASC 606. There were no outstanding receivables from Helsinn related to these units of accounts as of September 30, 2021.

For the unit of account that is within the scope of ASC 808 relating to research and development costs, we have recognized Helsinn’s share of research and development expenses of $9.6 million and $28.2 million as a reduction of research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Total receivables from Helsinn relating to this unit of account accounted for under ASC 808 amounted to $7.7 million as of September 30, 2021 and are shown as part of “Receivable from licensing and collaboration agreements” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Following the FDA approval of TRUSELTIQTM (infigratinib) in May 2021, we accounted for Helsinn’s share of the co-commercialization loss of $2.6 million and $6.8 million as a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Licensing Agreements Between Navire and LianBio

11.License Agreement Between Navire and LianBio

In August 2020, our subsidiary Navire Pharma, Inc. (“Navire”) entered into an exclusive license agreement with LianBio (the “Navire-LianBio License Agreement”). Pursuant to the Navire-LianBio License Agreement, Navire granted to LianBio an exclusive, sublicensable license under the licensed patent rights and know-how to develop, manufacture and commercialize SHP2 inhibitor BBP-398 (“BBP-398”), for tumors driven by RAS and receptor tyrosine kinase mutations. Under the terms of the Navire-LianBio License Agreement, LianBio will receive commercial rights in China and selected Asian markets and participate in clinical development activities for BBP-398. In consideration for the rights granted to LianBio, we received a nonrefundable $8.0 million upfront payment in 2020, which we recognized as license revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. We will also have the right to receive future development and sales milestone payments of up to $382.1 million, and tiered royalty payments from single-digit to low-teens on net sales of the product in licensed territories. We recognized $8.5 million in license revenue, representing a regulatory milestone payment, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. There was no license revenue recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2021 under this agreement.

Asset Acquisitions and Collaboration Agreement

12.Asset Acquisitions, In-licensing and Other Agreements

Novartis License Agreement

In January 2018, QED entered into a License Agreement with Novartis International Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“Novartis”), pursuant to which QED acquired certain intellectual property rights, including patents and know-how, related to infigratinib for the treatment of patients with FGFR-driven diseases. QED accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the estimated fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identified asset, in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test in ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were measured based on their fair values. The fair value of the IPR&D acquired was charged to research and development expense as it had no alternative future use at the time of the acquisition.

If certain substantial milestones are met, QED could be required to pay up to $60.0 million in regulatory milestone payments, $35.0 million in sales-based milestone payments, and pay royalties of up to low double-digit percentages on net sales. Following the FDA approval of TRUSELTIQ in May 2021, we paid a one-time regulatory milestone payment to Novartis of $20.0 million. We capitalized such payment as a finite-lived intangible asset and amortize the amount over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis.

Asset Purchase Agreement with Alexion

In June 2018, our subsidiary Origin Biosciences, Inc. (“Origin”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Alexion Pharma Holding Unlimited Company (“Alexion”) to acquire intellectual property rights, including patent rights, know-how, and contracts, related to the ALXN1101 molecule. Origin accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the estimated fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identified asset, IPR&D, thus satisfying the requirements of the screen test in ASU 2017-01. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction were measured based on their fair values. The fair value of the IPR&D acquired was charged to research and development expense as it had no alternative future use at the time of the acquisition.

Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, Origin could be required to pay up to $18.8 million if a certain condition is met. Such a condition was met in 2021, resulting in a one-time final payment of $15.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021, which we capitalized as a finite-lived intangible asset and amortize it over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis. In addition, under the Asset Purchase Agreement, Origin could be required to pay up to $17.0 million in sales-based milestone payments and royalties of up to low double-digit percentages on net sales.

Diagnostics Agreement with Foundation Medicine

In November 2018, QED and Foundation Medicine, Inc. (“FMI”) entered into a companion diagnostics agreement relating to QED’s drug discovery and development initiatives. Pursuant to the agreement, QED could be required to pay $12.5 million in regulatory approval milestones over a period of four years subsequent to the FDA approval of a companion diagnostic for TRUSELTIQ in patients with cholangiocarcinoma. The FDA approved the companion diagnostic for TRUSELTIQ in May 2021, which resulted in the capitalization of $12.5 million as a finite-lived intangible asset to be amortized over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis. As of September 30, 2021, the amount due to FMI is presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in “Other accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities” for $1.5 million and $11.0 million, respectively.

Intangible Assets

The following table summarizes the intangible assets recognized in connection with the above agreements:

	Weighted Average Estimated Useful Lives	September 30, 2021

Our finance leases, which are presented as part of “Property and equipment, net” in our consolidated balance sheets, are not material.

Certain leases include renewal options at our election and we include the renewal options when we are reasonably certain that the renewal option will be exercised. The lease liabilities were measured using a weighted-average discount rate based on the most recent borrowing rate as of the calculation of the respective lease liability, adjusted for the remaining lease term and aggregate amount of the lease.

The impairment loss recorded includes $2.6 million related to operating lease right-of-use assets and $0.7 million related to property and equipment namely leasehold improvements and office furniture and equipment that we no longer use.

Manufacturing Agreement

In December 2019, we entered into a manufacturing agreement to secure clinical and commercial scale manufacturing capacity for the manufacture of batches of active pharmaceutical ingredients for product candidates of certain subsidiaries of BridgeBio. Unless terminated as allowed within the manufacturing agreement, the agreement will expire five years from when qualified operations begin. Under the terms of the agreement, we are assigned a dedicated manufacturing suite for certain months in each calendar year for a one-time fee of $10.0 million, which will be applied to the buildout, commissioning, qualification, validation, equipping and exclusive use of the dedicated manufacturing suite.

We recorded a construction-in-progress asset of $10.0 million for the payments directly associated with the dedicated manufacturing suite as these payments are deemed to represent a non-lease component. The readiness determination phase of the dedicated manufacturing suite is expected to be completed in 2021. The remaining payable related to the dedicated manufacturing suite, recorded as part of “Other accrued liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, amounted to $2.0 million and $4.0 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

2021 Share Repurchase Program

In May 2021, our Board of Directors authorized and approved a stock repurchase program pursuant to which we may purchase up to $150.0 million of BridgeBio’s outstanding common stock. Stock repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions and otherwise, at the discretion of our management and in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act, of 1934, as amended, and other applicable legal requirements. The timing, pricing and amounts of these repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock and general market and economic conditions. The stock repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of September 30, 2021, we repurchased 3,017,087 shares in the open market at an average price of $49.72 per share for a total of approximately $150.0 million. As of September 30, 2021, the repurchased shares are held in treasury as treasury stock.

2020 Shelf Registration

In July 2020, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “2020 Shelf”) with the SEC in relation to the registration of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and units or any combination thereof. We also simultaneously entered into an Open Market Sale AgreementSM with Jefferies LLC and SVB Leerink LLC (collectively, the “Sales Agents”), to provide for the offering, issuance and sale by us of up to an aggregate of $350.0 million of our common stock from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings under the 2020 Shelf and subject to the limitations thereof (the “2020 Sales Agreement”). We will pay to the applicable Sales Agents cash commissions of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of sales of common stock under the 2020 Sales Agreement. We have not issued any shares or received any proceeds from this offering as of September 30, 2021.

We have recorded $0.1 million and $3.3 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, for performance-based milestone awards that were achieved during the period and were settled in cash.

Equity-Based Awards of BridgeBio

As of September 30, 2021, 7,977,872 shares and 8,938 shares were reserved for future issuances under our 2019 Amended and Restated Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2019 A&R Plan”) and the 2019 Inducement Equity Plan (the “2019 Inducement Plan”), respectively. Pursuant to the Merger Transactions, we also reserved 2,802,644 shares specifically under the Eidos Award Exchange (the “Eidos Award Exchange Plan”), all of which were issued upon execution of the Eidos Award Exchange as discussed below. The 2019 A&R Plan, the 2019 Inducement Plan and the Eidos Award Exchange Plan are collectively referred herein as the “Plans”.

2020 Stock and Equity Award Exchange Program (Exchange Program)

On April 22, 2020, we completed our 2020 Stock and Equity Award Exchange Program (the “Exchange Program”) for certain subsidiaries, which was an opportunity for eligible controlled entities’ employees and consultants to exchange their subsidiary equity (including common stock, vested and unvested stock options and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”)) for BridgeBio equity (including common stock, vested and unvested stock options and RSAs) and/or performance-based milestone awards tied to the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones. The Exchange Program aligns our incentive compensation structure for employees and consultants across the BridgeBio group of companies to be consistent with the achievement of our overall corporate goals. In connection with the Exchange Program, we issued awards of BridgeBio equity under the 2019 A&R Plan to 149 grantees covering 554,064 shares of common stock, 1,268,110 stock options to purchase common stock, 50,145 shares of RSAs and 22,611 shares of performance-based RSAs. The exchange also included performance-based milestone awards of up to $183.4 million to be settled in fully-vested RSAs in the future upon achievement of the milestones (collectively the “New Awards”). In consideration for all the subsidiaries’ shares tendered, BridgeBio increased its ownership in controlled entities included in the Exchange Program and the corresponding noncontrolling interest decreased.

On November 18, 2020, we completed a stock and equity award under our Exchange Program for a subsidiary. We issued awards of BridgeBio equity under the 2019 A&R Plan to 16 grantees covering 24,924 shares of common stock, 70,436 stock options to purchase common stock, and 10,772 shares of performance-based stock options to purchase common stock. The exchange also included performance-based milestone awards of up to $11.7 million to be settled in fully-vested RSAs in the future upon achievement of the milestones.

We evaluated the exchange of the controlled entities’ outstanding common stock and equity awards for BridgeBio awards as a modification under ASC 718, Share Based Payments. Under ASC 718, a modification is a change in the terms or conditions of a stock-based compensation award. In assessing the accounting treatment, we consider the fair value, vesting conditions and classification as an equity or liability award of the controlled entity equity before the exchange, compared to the BridgeBio equity received as part of the exchange to determine whether modification accounting must be applied. When applying modification accounting, we considered the type of modification to determine the appropriate stock-based compensation cost to be recognized on April 22 and November 18, 2020, (each the “Modification Date”), and subsequent to the Modification Date.

We considered the total shares of common stock and equity awards, whether vested or unvested, held by each participant in each controlled entity as the unit of account. The controlled entity’s common stock and equity awards in each unit of account was exchanged for a combination of BridgeBio’s common stock, time-based vesting equity awards and/or performance-based milestone awards. Other than the exchange of the controlled entity equity awards for performance-based milestone awards, all other exchanged BridgeBio equity awards retained the original vesting conditions. As a result, there was no incremental stock-based compensation expense resulting from the exchange of time-based equity awards.

At the completion of the Exchange Program, we determined $17.4 million of the performance-based milestone awards were probable of achievement and represented the incremental stock-based compensation cost resulting from the modification of time-based equity awards to performance-based milestone awards. These performance-based milestone awards were to be recognized over a period ranging from 0.7 year to 1.7 years. There was no incremental stock-based compensation cost arising from the completion of the Exchange Program on November 18, 2020. Under ASC 718, we account for such performance-based milestone awards as a liability in “Accrued compensation and benefits” and in “Other long-term liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets due to the fixed milestone amount that will be converted into a variable number of shares of BridgeBio common stock to be granted upon the achievement date.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $25.8 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with milestone awards under the Exchange Program that were determined to be probable of achievement as of September 30, 2021. The related stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was not material. Refer to Note 8 for contingent compensation accrued associated with performance-based milestones that are determined to be probable as of September 30, 2021.

Performance-based Milestone Awards

Apart from the Exchange Program discussed above, we have performance-based milestone compensation arrangements with certain employees and consultants whose vesting is contingent upon meeting various regulatory and development milestones, with fixed monetary amounts known at inception that can be settled in the form of cash or equity at our sole discretion, upon achievement of each contingent milestone. Upon achievement of a contingent milestone and if such performance-based milestone awards are settled in the form of equity, these are satisfied in the form of fully-vested RSAs. We recognize such contingent stock-based compensation expense when the milestone is probable of achievement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $0.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with performance-based milestone awards that were determined to be probable of achievement as of September 30, 2021. Refer to Note 8 for contingent compensation accrued associated with performance-based milestones awards that are determined to be probable as of September 30, 2021.

The options granted to employees and non-employees are exercisable at the price of BridgeBio’s common stock at the respective grant dates. The options granted have a service condition and generally vest over a period of four years.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $31.03.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable as of September 30, 2021 in the table above are calculated based on the difference between the exercise price and the current fair value of BridgeBio common stock. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $50.4 million.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $8.1 million and $21.9 million, respectively, related to stock options under the Plans. As of September 30, 2021, there was $71.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options under the Plans that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years.

As of September 30, 2021, there was $11.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to RSAs under the Plans that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The respective balances of unvested RSAs as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are included as outstanding shares disclosed in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as the shares were issued but are subject to forfeiture per the terms of the awards.

2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) of BridgeBio

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, stock-based compensation expense related to our ESPP was immaterial. As of September 30, 2021, 4,235,440 shares were reserved for future issuance under the ESPP.

Valuation Assumptions

We used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase rights under the ESPP. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we used the following weighted-average assumptions in the Black-Scholes calculations:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
	Stock Options		ESPP
Expected term (in years)	6.00-6.02			0.50
Expected volatility	51.43%-51.97%		47.61% - 52.04%
Risk-free interest rate	0.63%-1.09%		0.05% - 0.13%
Dividend yield		—		—
Weighted-average fair value of stock-based awards granted	$	31.03	$	16.29

Equity Awards of Eidos

Prior to the Merger Transactions, Eidos issued its own equity-based awards under the Eidos 2016 Equity Incentive Plan and the Eidos 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Eidos Plans”). Upon closing of the Merger Transactions, we issued 2,776,672 stock options to purchase common stock of BridgeBio and 25,972 shares of BridgeBio RSUs to 88 employees of Eidos under the Eidos Award Exchange in exchange for their then outstanding common stock options and RSUs under the Eidos Plans (the “Replaced Awards”). The awards issued in the Eidos Award Exchange have the same vesting terms and conditions as the Replaced Awards. We evaluated the exchange of the awards as a modification under ASC 718 and recognized no incremental compensation cost from such modification.

Stock-based compensation under the Eidos Plans from January 1, 2021 until the closing of the Merger Transactions was immaterial.

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

16.Income Taxes

BridgeBio is subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation. BridgeBio’s tax provision and the resulting effective tax rate for interim periods is determined based upon its estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for the effect of discrete items arising in that quarter. There was no provision for income tax for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using statutory rates. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the favorable tax attributes in future tax returns, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our otherwise recognizable net deferred tax assets.

As a result of the issuance of our 2027 Notes in 2020, it was determined that our existing deferred tax assets do not fully offset the deferred tax liabilities when reviewing the reversals of temporary differences. This resulted in a deferred tax liability of $1.1 million that was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2020. As discussed in Note 2, we have derecognized the deferred tax liability on January 1, 2021 upon early adoption of ASU 2020-06, with no impact on the provision for income tax.

Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax benefits as part of the income tax provision and include accrued interest and penalties with the related income tax liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. To date, we have not recognized any interest and penalties in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, nor have we accrued for or made payments for interest and penalties. Our unrecognized gross tax benefits would not reduce the estimated annual effective tax rate if recognized because we have recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled entities, substantially all of which are denominated in U.S. dollars. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For consolidated entities where we own or are exposed to less than 100% of the economics, we record net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated statements of operations equal to the percentage of the economic or ownership interest retained in such entities by the respective noncontrolling parties.

In determining whether an entity is considered a controlled entity, we apply the VIE and voting interest entity (“VOE”) models. We assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on our power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and our obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Entities that do not qualify as a VIE are assessed for consolidation under the VOE model. Under the VOE model, BridgeBio consolidates the entity if it determines that it has a controlling financial interest in the entity through its ownership of greater than 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the entity and that other equity holders do not have substantive voting, participating or liquidation rights. We assess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE or whether we have a majority voting interest for entities consolidated under the VOE model at the inception of the arrangement and at each reporting date.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, our results of operations and comprehensive loss, and our cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any other future annual or interim periods.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to conform to the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no net effect on cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities as previously reported.

Risks and Uncertainties

Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, the novel strain of coronavirus that causes Coronavirus disease 19 (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. Since then, the resources of healthcare providers and hospitals have been focused on fighting the virus and any variants of the virus, and we have experienced delays in or temporary suspension of the enrollment of patients in our subsidiaries’ ongoing clinical trials. We additionally may experience delays in certain ongoing key program activities, including commencement of planned clinical trials, as well as non-clinical experiments and investigational new drug application-enabling good laboratory practice toxicology studies. The exact timing of delays and their overall impact on our business are currently unknown, and we are monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as it continues to evolve. We are continuing to actively monitor the situation and may take further precautionary and preemptive actions as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of public health and safety and that of our patient community, employees, partners, suppliers and stockholders. We cannot predict the effects that such actions, or the impact of COVID-19 on global business operations and economic conditions, may have on our business or strategy, including the effects on our ongoing and planned clinical development activities and prospects, or on our financial and operating results.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less from the purchase date to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in U.S. government money market funds.

Our restricted cash balance relates to cash and cash equivalents that we have pledged as collateral under certain lease agreements and letters of credit.

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 amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

	September 30, 2021		September 30, 2020

Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the    condensed consolidated statements of cash flows	$	183,079	$	367,391

Investment in Equity Securities

Investment in Equity Securities

Our investment in equity securities consists of equity securities of publicly held companies. We measure the fair value of our investment in equity securities at each reporting period in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments — Equity Securities. Changes in fair value resulting from observable price changes are included in “Other income (expense), net” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon sale of an equity security, any realized gain or loss is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

License Arrangements and Multiple-Element Arrangements

License Arrangements and Multiple-Element Arrangements

Revenue from non-refundable, upfront license or technology access payments under license arrangements that are not dependent on any future performance by us is recognized when control of the license is transferred to our customer and our customer is able to benefit from the license. If we have continuing obligations to perform under the arrangement, such fees are recognized over the estimated period of continuing performance obligation.

When we enter into license agreements, we assess whether the arrangements fall within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808) based on whether the arrangements involve joint operating activities and whether both parties have active participation in the arrangement and are exposed to significant risks and rewards. To the extent that the arrangement falls within the scope of ASC 808, we assess whether the activities between us and our partner fall within the scope of other accounting literature. If we conclude that payments for activities from our partner to us represent consideration from a customer, such as license fees and contract manufacturing and research and development activities, we account for those elements within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. However, if we conclude that our partner is not a customer for certain activities and associated payments, such as for certain collaborative research, development, manufacturing and commercial activities, we present such payments as a reduction of research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, based on where we present the underlying expense. Additionally, if we reimburse our collaboration partners for these activities, we present such reimbursements as research and development expense or selling, general and administrative expense, depending upon the nature of the underlying expense.

If our collaborative arrangement provides for the sharing of profits and losses with our partner for commercialization activities, the treatment of our share in the profit-sharing structure depends on who the selling party is. If we are the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our collaboration partner’s share of profits as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses and our collaboration partner’s share of loss as a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses. If our partner is the selling party and the deemed principal, we record our share of profits as collaboration revenue and our share of losses as an addition to selling, general and administrative expenses.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

For elements of those arrangements that we determine should be accounted for under ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy our performance obligation. We apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer.

At inception of the arrangement, once it is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and then identify the performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation, on a relative standalone selling price basis, when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the standalone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract. These key assumptions may include forecasted revenue or costs, development timelines, discount rates and probabilities of clinical and regulatory success.

License Fees: For arrangements that include a grant of a license to our intellectual property, we consider whether the license grant is distinct from the other performance obligations included in the arrangement. Generally, we would conclude that the license is distinct if the customer is able to benefit from the license with the resources available to it. For licenses that are distinct, we recognize revenues from nonrefundable, upfront license fees and other consideration allocated to the license when the license term has begun and we have provided all necessary information regarding the underlying intellectual property to the customer, which generally occurs at or near the inception of the arrangement. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, we determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time. If the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time, we use judgment in determining the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from the allocated transaction price. We evaluate the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjust the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.

Development and Regulatory Milestone Payments: At the inception of each arrangement that includes development and regulatory milestone payments, we evaluate whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimate the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within our or our collaboration partners control, such as non-operational developmental and regulatory approvals, are generally not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, we re-evaluate the probability of achieving such development and regulatory milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjust our estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Sales-based Milestone Payments and Royalties: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the volume of sales, we will determine whether the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties or sales-based milestones relate and if such is the case, we will recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Product supply services: Arrangements that include a promise for the future supply of drug product for either clinical development or commercial supply at the licensee’s discretion are generally considered as options. We will assess if these options provide a material right to the licensee and if so, they are accounted for as separate performance obligations and recognized when the future goods or services related to the option are provided or the option expires.

Product Sales: Revenue is recognized when our customers obtain control of the product and revenue is adjusted to reflect discounts, chargebacks, rebates, returns and other allowances associated to the respective sales.

Milestone and Royalty Payments Under Asset Acquisitions

Milestone and Royalty Payments Under Asset Acquisitions

Under our asset acquisitions, we could be required to pay development, regulatory and sales-based milestone payments if certain substantive milestones are met. We generally expense development milestones as incurred. For regulatory or sales-based milestones that are associated with an approved asset, we capitalize the milestone payments related to the asset purchase as a finite-lived intangible asset provided that the milestone payment is recoverable based on our estimated projected cash flows or if the asset has alternative future use. Such intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis, beginning on the date the asset is acquired, which would generally be the regulatory approval date. We assess the carrying value of our finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable. Recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets is measured by comparison of the carrying value of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate.

We could also be required to pay royalties based on actual net sales under in-licensing agreements and asset acquisitions. Such royalties are expensed in the period of sale of the product.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, accruals for research and development activities and contingent clinical, development, regulatory and sales-based milestone payments in our in-licensing agreements and asset acquisitions, the valuation of our stock-based awards, accruals for performance-based milestone compensation arrangements, accounting for stock-based award modifications, the present value of lease payments of our leases on the respective lease commencement dates, the expected recoverability and estimated useful lives of our long-lived assets, the fair value of the LianBio Warrants (see Note 7) and the fair value of the LEO call option liability (see Note 7). We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The guidance simplifies the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is either through a modified retrospective method or a full retrospective method of transition.

Effective January 1, 2021, we early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method with respect to our 2027 Notes. As a result of the adoption, we no longer separately account for the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes by allocating the proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion options, or equity component; and, instead, account for our 2027 Notes wholly as debt. This also resulted in the derecognition of a deferred tax liability, which represented a basis difference in the face value of the 2027 Notes due to the previous allocation of portion of the proceeds to the equity component. Additionally, we recorded a cumulative adjustment to decrease our opening accumulated deficit balance as of January 1, 2021, representing a reduction in previously recorded interest expense accretion to the principal amount of our 2027 Notes through December 31, 2020. The following table summarizes the adjustments made to our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2021 as a result of applying the modified retrospective method in adopting ASU 2020-06:

	As Reported			Adjustments						As Adjusted
	December 31, 2020			Account 2027 Notes wholly as debt			Cumulative impact on interest expense			January 1, 2021
	(in thousands)
2027 Notes, net	$	383,436		$	169,173		$	(14,328	)	$	538,281
Other long-term liabilities (1)		9,520			(1,095	)	$	—			8,425
Additional paid-in capital		1,021,344			(168,078	)		—			853,266
Accumulated deficit		(888,755	)		—			14,328			(874,427	)

(1)Related deferred tax liability was recorded as part of “Other long-term liabilities.”

Under this transition method, we do not need to restate the comparative periods in transition and will continue to present financial information and disclosures for periods before January 1, 2021 in accordance with the pre-ASU 2020-06 guidance under ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options.

The adoption did not impact previously reported amounts in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows and our basic and diluted net loss per share amounts. 

Stock-Based Compensation

We evaluated the exchange of the controlled entities’ outstanding common stock and equity awards for BridgeBio awards as a modification under ASC 718, Share Based Payments. Under ASC 718, a modification is a change in the terms or conditions of a stock-based compensation award. In assessing the accounting treatment, we consider the fair value, vesting conditions and classification as an equity or liability award of the controlled entity equity before the exchange, compared to the BridgeBio equity received as part of the exchange to determine whether modification accounting must be applied. When applying modification accounting, we considered the type of modification to determine the appropriate stock-based compensation cost to be recognized on April 22 and November 18, 2020, (each the “Modification Date”), and subsequent to the Modification Date.

Fair Value Assets And Liabilities Measured On Recurring And Nonrecurring Basis Valuation Techniques [Line Items]

Summary of Change in Estimated Fair Value of Liability Recorded in Other Income (Expense), Net

On March 30, 2021, LEO provided a notice of termination of the LEO call option effective April 15, 2021. As a result and based on the facts and circumstances that existed as of March 31, 2021, we evaluated that the likelihood of LEO exercising said option was remote and we remeasured the LEO call option liability to zero as of March 31, 2021. The following table sets forth a summary of the change in the estimated fair value of the LEO call option recorded in “Other income (expense), net”:
