4. Collaborations

GlaxoSmithKline Agreement

In July 2018, the Company and an affiliate of GlaxoSmithKline (“GSK”) entered into a four-year exclusive drug discovery and development collaboration agreement (the “GSK Agreement”) for collaboration on identification and development of therapeutic agents with a unilateral option for GSK to extend the term for an additional year. In January 2022, GSK elected to exercise the option to extend the exclusive target discovery term for an additional year to July 2023. In October 2022, the Company received a one-time payment of $50.0 million from GSK in consideration of the exercise of the option pursuant to the GSK Agreement. The exclusive drug discovery period under the GSK Agreement expired on July 23, 2023.

The Company concluded that GSK is considered a customer. Therefore, the Company has applied the guidance in ASC 606 to account for and present consideration received from GSK related to research services provided by the Company. The Company’s activities under the GSK Agreement, which included reporting, drug target discovery, and joint steering committee participation, represented one combined performance obligation to deliver research services. In addition, the GSK Agreement, along with subsequent amendments, provided GSK the right to include certain identified pre-existing Company programs in the collaboration at GSK’s election, each of which was considered distinct from the research services. The Company recognized research services revenue related to the GSK Agreement as the performance obligation was satisfied using an input method to measure progress. The Company believes that actual hours incurred relative to projected hours was the most accurate measurement of progress for the input method.

Prior to the expiration of the GSK Agreement, drug targets were identified for inclusion in the collaboration during the performance of research services. Cost sharing related to the performance of research services was recorded when incurred within cost of revenue in the Consumer and Research Services segment.

For drug targets that had been identified for inclusion in the collaboration, the Company and GSK continue to equally share in the costs of further research, development, and commercialization of identified targets under the GSK Agreement, subject to certain rights of either party to opt-out of funding at certain predetermined development milestones. These cost-sharing charges for costs incurred subsequent to the identification of drug targets have been included in research and development expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the period incurred. The Company may also share in the net profits or losses of products that are commercialized pursuant to the collaboration or receive royalties on products which are successfully commercialized.

The Company recognized research services revenue related to the GSK Agreement of $1.1 million and $14.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $11.8 million and $23.2 million during the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had deferred revenue, all of which was current, related to the GSK Agreement of $11.8 million. As of September 30, 2023, the Company did not have any deferred revenue related to the GSK Agreement. Cost-sharing amounts incurred prior to the identification of targets included in cost of revenue were immaterial for each of the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and each of the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Cost-sharing amounts incurred subsequent to the identification of targets, included in research and development expenses, were $4.9 million and $2.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $8.2 million and $6.3 million during the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the Company had $13.7 million and $11.9 million, respectively, related to balances of amounts payable to GSK for reimbursement of shared costs included within accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

GSK’s affiliate, Glaxo Group Limited, held shares of the Company’s Class B common stock representing approximately 20.0% and 20.1% of the Company’s combined voting power as of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively; therefore, GSK is considered as a related party to the Company.
