We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements made by us, which speak only as of the date they are made.

KALEIDO BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

1. Nature of the Business, Basis of Presentation, and Going Concern

Kaleido Biosciences, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a clinical-stage healthcare company that was incorporated in Delaware on January 27, 2015 and has a principal place of business in Lexington, Massachusetts. The Company was formed to use its differentiated, chemistry-driven approach to leverage the potential of the microbiome organ to treat disease and improve human health.

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the biotechnology industry, including, but not limited to, successful development of technology, obtaining additional funding, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, risks of failure of preclinical studies (including ex vivo assays), clinical studies and clinical trials, the need to obtain marketing approval for its drug candidates and if applicable, its consumer products, fluctuations in operating results, economic pressure impacting therapeutic pricing, dependence on key personnel, risks associated with changes in technologies, development by competitors of technological innovations and the ability to supply sufficient amounts of Microbiome Metabolic Therapies, (“MMT” or “MMTs”) at an acceptable quality level.

On March 4, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering (the "IPO"), pursuant to which it issued and sold 5,000,000 shares of common stock. The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the IPO were $69,750, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, but before deducting offering costs payable by the Company, which totaled $3,805. Upon the closing of the IPO, all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock converted into 18,517,386 shares of common stock.

On June 4, 2020, the Company completed a public offering (the “Offering”), pursuant to which it issued and sold 4,750,000 shares of the common stock. The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the Offering were $33,182. On July 1, 2020, 185,000 shares were exercised under the Underwriters overallotment option for net proceeds of $1,260.                   

On August 4, 2020, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with a sales agent for the sale of up to $50,000 of the Company’s shares of common stock, from time to time in an at-the-market public offering (the “ATM”). The sales agent is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold 214,800 shares of its common stock under the ATM which resulted in aggregate net proceeds of $1,900, which was received on October 2, 2020 and is included in other current assets at September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, there was $48,100 available under the ATM.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $254,163. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses and use cash in operations in the foreseeable future. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $54,532, and management expects that the cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2020 will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second half of 2021. Based on its recurring losses from operations incurred since inception, expectation of continuing operating losses for the foreseeable future, and need to raise additional capital to finance its future operations, the Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company will require substantial additional capital to fund its research and development and ongoing operating expenses. These capital requirements are expected to be funded through debt and equity offerings as well as possible strategic collaborations with other companies. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds when needed, it may be required to delay, reduce or eliminate its product development or future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that the Company would otherwise prefer to develop and market itself. While there can be no assurance the Company will be able to successfully reduce operating expenses or raise additional capital, management believes the historical success in managing cash flows and obtaining capital will continue in the foreseeable future.

A novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was first identified in late 2019, and subsequently declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. As a result of the outbreak, many companies have experienced disruptions in their operations and in markets served. The Company has instituted some and may take additional temporary precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the virus to its employees, including implementing a work-at-home policy, providing flexibility for working parents and suspending all business-related travel. The full extent of the future impacts of COVID-19 on our operations, including the timing and ability of the Company to complete certain clinical trials and other efforts to advance the development of our MMTs, is uncertain.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited interim financial information

The consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2020.

All intercompany transactions and balances of the subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the information furnished reflects all adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair representation of the results for the reported interim periods.

Use of Estimates 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Collaboration Revenue

The Company analyzes its collaboration arrangements to assess whether they are within the scope of ASC Topic 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808), to determine whether such arrangements involve joint operating activities performed by parties that are both active participants in the activities and exposed to significant risks and rewards that are dependent on the commercial success of such activities. To the extent the arrangement is within the scope of ASC 808, the Company will assess whether aspects of the arrangement between it and their collaboration partner are within the scope of other accounting literature. If the Company concludes that some or all aspects of the arrangement represent a transaction with a customer, it will account for those aspects of the arrangement within the scope of ASC 606, the Company applies the five-step model described below. If the Company concludes that some or all aspects of the arrangement are within the scope of ASC 808 and do not represent a transaction with a customer, the Company will recognize its allocation of the shared costs incurred with respect to the jointly conducted activities as a component of the related expense in the period incurred.

The Company recognizes revenue after applying the following five steps:

1)	Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer,
2)	Identification of the performance obligations in the contract, including whether they are distinct within the context of the contract
3)	Determination of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration
4)	Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5)	Recognition of revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied

If a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at inception, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within such contract, determines which of those goods and services are performance obligations, and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct.  Promised goods and services are considered distinct provided that: (i) the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (that is, the good or service is capable of being distinct) and (ii) the entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (that is, the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract). In assessing whether a promised good or service is distinct, the Company considers factors such as the research, manufacturing and commercialization capabilities of the collaboration partner and the availability of the associated expertise in the general marketplace. The Company also considers the intended benefit of the contract in assessing whether a promised good or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. If a promised good or service is not distinct, an entity is required to combine that good or service with other promised goods or services until it identifies a bundle of goods or services that is distinct.

The Company may provide options to additional goods or services in such arrangements exercisable at a customer’s discretion. The Company assesses if these options provide a material right to the customer and if so, they are considered performance obligations. The identification of material rights requires judgments related to the determination of the value of the underlying good and services to the option exercise price.

The Company determines transaction price based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive for transferring the promised goods or services in the contract. Consideration may be fixed, variable, or a combination of both. The Company then allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”). SSP is determined at contract inception and is not updated to reflect changes between contract inception and when the performance obligations are satisfied. In developing the SSP for a performance obligation, the Company considers applicable market conditions and relevant entity-specific factors, including factors that were contemplated in negotiating the agreement with the customer and estimated costs.

If the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled by using the expected value method or the most likely amount method. The Company includes the unconstrained amount of estimated variable consideration in the transaction price. The amount included in the transaction price is constrained to the amount for which it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, the Company re-evaluates the estimated variable consideration included in the transaction price and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjusts its estimate of the overall transaction price.

The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied, either at a point in time or over time, and if over time recognition is based on the use of an output or input method.

Amounts received prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. If the related performance obligation is expected to be satisfied within the next twelve months this will be classified in current liabilities. Amounts recognized as revenue prior to receipt are recorded as other current assets in the Company's balance sheets. If the Company expects to have an unconditional right to receive the consideration in the next twelve months, this will be classified in other current assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which applies to all leases and will require the Company to record most leases on the balance sheet. The Company will use a modified retrospective approach of adoption for ASU 2016-02. As an emerging growth company, this standard is required to be adopted on January 1, 2022, and the Company is evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to recognize a significant lease obligation and right to use asset upon adoption.

3. Fair Value Measurements

The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the assets carried at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Fair Value Measurements as of September 30, 2020
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Money market funds included within cash and cash    equivalents	$	45,407		—		—	$	45,407
Total	$	45,407		—		—	$	45,407

	Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2019
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Money market funds included within cash and cash    equivalents	$	25,304		—		—	$	25,304
Total	$	25,304		—		—	$	25,304

The fair value of money market funds was measured by the Company based on quoted market prices.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value – The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses that are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates fair value as evidenced by the recent refinancings.
