2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2022, the consolidated results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, its statements of shareholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and its consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 1, 2022 (the “Annual Report”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2021 presented for comparative purposes was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Annual Report. There have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies since the date of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Annual Report, except as noted under “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements”.

Principles of Consolidation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Repare Therapeutics USA Inc. (“Repare USA”), which was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on June 1, 2017. The financial statements of Repare USA are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. All intra-group transactions, balances, income, and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation.

Smaller Reporting Company

The Company qualifies as a “smaller reporting company” under the Exchange Act as of September 30, 2022 because the market value of its common shares held by non-affiliates was less than $560 million as of June 30, 2022 and its revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was less than $100 million. As a smaller reporting company, the Company may rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. For so long as the Company remains a smaller reporting company, it is permitted and the Company intends to rely on such exemptions from certain disclosure and other requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not smaller reporting companies.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). Certain amendments thereto were also issued by the FASB. ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments implement an impairment model, known as the current expected credit loss model, that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, we will recognize our estimate of current expected credit losses as an allowance on financial assets measured at amortized cost for investments classified as available for sale. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments thereto on January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments thereto did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures as of and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

There were no new accounting pronouncements issued since the filing of the Annual Report, which could have a significant impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, estimates related to revenue recognition, accrued research and development expenses, share-based compensation, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and income taxes. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other market specific or other relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company previously established a cross-functional task force and has implemented business continuity plans designed to address and mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on its employees and its business, including its preclinical studies and its ongoing and planned clinical trials. The Company has taken measures to secure its research and development activities, while work in its laboratories and facilities has been re-organized to reduce risk of COVID-19 transmission. While the Company is experiencing limited financial impacts at this time, given the global economic slowdown, the overall disruption of global healthcare systems and the other risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The Company cannot predict the ultimate impact, if any, of the COVID-19 pandemic related to both known and unknown risks, including future quarantines, closures and other restrictions resulting from the pandemic. The Company continues to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic as it evolves its business continuity plans, clinical development plans and response strategy.

There is a possibility that the Company’s current or future clinical trial sites may be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic due to prioritization of hospital resources toward the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the inability to access sites for initiation, patient enrollment and monitoring. As a result, patient screening, new patient enrollment, monitoring and data collection may be affected or delayed. The Company is aware that several clinical sites involved in its clinical trials have in the past temporarily stopped or delayed enrolling new patients, with exemptions if appropriate, and it is possible that these or other clinical sites may be similarly affected in the future. These developments may delay or extend the Company’s projected clinical trial timelines. Some of the Company’s third-party manufacturers, which it uses for the supply of materials for product candidates or other materials necessary to manufacture product to conduct preclinical tests and clinical trials, and contract research organizations may be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Should they experience disruptions, such as temporary closures or suspension of services, the Company would likely experience delays in advancing its current or planned clinical trials. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require the Company to update its estimates, assumptions and judgments or revise the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and any such differences may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
