Taxation
Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred income tax. Tax is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income/(Loss) except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity.
For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Group filed a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return that included
all subsidiaries in which the Group owned greater than 80% of the vote and value. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024
and 2023, the Group filed certain consolidated state income tax returns which included all subsidiaries in which the Group owned
greater than 50% of the vote and value. The remaining subsidiaries file separate U.S. tax returns.

The income tax expense/(benefit) was $(842), $(4,008) and $30,525 for the tax years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023,
respectively.
The income tax benefit recognized in 2025 was primarily due to capital loss generated on the sale of the Vor Biopharma investment
and general business tax credits, partially offset by the recognition of a reserve for uncertain tax positions related to a state audit.
The income tax benefit recognized in 2024 was primarily attributable to the recognition of a deferred tax asset, which was generated
in 2024 from the sale of the Group’s investment in Akili common stock. This deferred tax asset was used to offset income generated
from the sale of the Group’s investment in Karuna common shares, partially offset with state income tax expense.
Reconciliation of Effective Tax Rate
The Group is primarily subject to taxation in the U.S. A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to the effective tax rate
is as follows:

As of December 31, 2025, the Group does not have sufficient taxable temporary differences; has a history of losses; and does not
believe it is probable future profits will be available to support the recognition of its deferred tax assets. The unrecognized deferred
tax assets of $102,037 are primarily related to capitalized research & development expenditures, net operating loss carryforwards
and deferred tax asset related to the sale of future royalties to Royalty Pharma.
Unrecognized Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets have not been recognized in respect of the following carryforward losses, credits and temporary differences,
because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can use the benefits therefrom.

The Group had U.S. federal net operating losses carry forwards (“NOLs”) of $123,691, $7,815 and $13,681 as of December 31, 2025,
2024 and 2023, respectively, which are available to offset future taxable income. These NOLs expire through 2037 with the exception
of $118,870, which is not subject to expiration, and can be utilized up to 80% of annual taxable income. The Group had U.S. federal
research and development tax credits of approximately $272, $238 and $1,396 as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively,
which are available to offset future taxes that expire at various dates through 2044. A portion of these federal NOLs and credits can
only be used to offset the profits from the Group’s subsidiaries who file separate federal tax returns. These NOLs and credits are
subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service.
The Group had state net operating losses carry forwards (“NOLs”) of approximately $376,066, $125,322 and $111,446 for the years
ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are available to offset future taxable income. These NOLs expire at
various dates beginning in 2030. These NOLs are subject to review and possible adjustment by state taxing authority.
Utilization of the NOLs and research and development credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 due to ownership change limitations that have occurred previously or that could
occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of NOL and research and development credit carryforwards that
can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively. The Group has performed a Section 382 analysis
through December 31, 2025. The results of this analysis concluded that certain net operating losses were subject to limitation under
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. None of the Group’s net operating losses, which are subject to a Section 382 limitation,
has been recognized in the financial statements.

Uncertain Tax Positions
The Group has recorded an uncertain tax position reserve of approximately $1,208 as of December 31, 2025, inclusive of interest
and penalties, related to a state audit. U.S. corporations are routinely subject to audit by federal and state tax authorities in the
normal course of business.
