Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Kymera Therapeutics, Inc., together with its subsidiary Kymera Securities Corporation, is referred to on a consolidated basis as the “Company”. The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing small molecule therapeutics that selectively degrade disease-causing proteins by harnessing the body’s own natural cellular process, a method known as targeted protein degradation. The Company has devoted its efforts principally to research and development since formation. The Company has not yet completed product development, filed for or obtained regulatory approvals for any products, nor verified the market acceptance and demand for such products. As a result, the Company is subject to a number of risks common to emerging companies in the biotech industry. Principal among these risks are the uncertainties of the product discovery and development process, dependence on key individuals, development of the same or similar technological innovations by the Company’s competitors, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations and approval requirements, the Company’s ability to access capital and uncertainty of market acceptance of products. The Company has historical net losses and anticipates that it will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and had an accumulated deficit of $229.0 million as of December 31, 2021. The Company has funded these losses principally through issuance of preferred stock, convertible notes, common stock, including its initial public offering and concurrent private placement completed in August 2020 (“IPO”), follow-on offering and concurrent private placement completed in July 2021 ("Follow-on Offering"), and from cash proceeds received in connection with the Company’s collaboration agreements with Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (“Vertex”) and Genzyme Corporation (“Sanofi”) (see Note 5). The Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows until such time as it generates a level of revenue that is sufficient to support its cost structure. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $567.6 million. The Company believes these cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund its operations and capital expenditure requirements through at least twelve months from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to finance the future research and development costs of its product portfolio with its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, or through strategic financing opportunities that could include, but are not limited to future offerings of its equity, collaboration agreements, or the incurrence of debt. However, there is no guarantee that any of these strategic or financing opportunities will be executed or realized on favorable terms, if at all, and some could be dilutive to existing stockholders. If the Company fails to obtain additional future capital, it may be unable to complete its planned preclinical studies and clinical trials. Reverse Stock Split On August 20, 2020, the Board approved a 1-for-1.5949 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock and a proportional adjustment to the existing conversion ratios for each of the Company’s outstanding series of preferred stock. All share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split, including reclassifying an amount equal to the reduction in par value of common stock to additional paid-in capital. Initial Public Offering On August 20, 2020, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 relating to its initial public offering of its common stock was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the IPO, which closed on August 25, 2020, the Company issued and sold 9,987,520 shares of common stock, including full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase an additional 1,302,720 shares, at a public offering price of $20.00 per share and the aggregate gross proceeds before deducting before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $199.8 million. Concurrent with the IPO, the Company issued and sold 676,354 shares of common stock at $20.00 per share in a private placement to Vertex and the aggregate proceeds were $13.5 million. Follow-on Public Offering On July 6, 2021, the Company completed a follow-on offering of its common stock and issued and sold 5,468,250 shares of common stock, including full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase an additional 713,250 shares, at a public offering price of $47.00 per share. The aggregate gross proceeds before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company were approximately $257.0 million.
