Note 1: Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

ProKidney Corp. (the “Company” or “ProKidney”) was originally incorporated as Social Capital Suvretta Holdings Corp. III (“SCS”). SCS was a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on February 25, 2021. SCS was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.

On January 18, 2022, SCS executed a definitive business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), with ProKidney LP (“PKLP”), a limited partnership under the laws and regulations of Ireland. Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, PKLP became a subsidiary of SCS and was organized in an umbrella partnership corporation (“Up-C”) structure, which would provide potential future tax benefits for SCS when the equity holders ultimately exchanged their pass-through interests for Class A common stock. The business combination between SCS and PKLP (the “Business Combination”) closed (the “Closing”) on July 11, 2022 (the “Closing Date”). Upon consummation of the transaction, SCS changed its name to ProKidney Corp.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization transaction between entities under common control, through which PKLP was considered the accounting acquiror and predecessor entity. The Business Combination was reflected as the equivalent of PKLP issuing stock for the net assets of SCS accompanied by a recapitalization with no goodwill or intangible assets recognized.

ProKidney Corp., through its operating subsidiaries, ProKidney, which is incorporated under the Cayman Islands Companies Act (as amended) as an exempted company (“ProKidney-KY”) and ProKidney LLC, a limited liability company under the laws of Delaware (“ProKidney-US”) is focused on the development of rilparencel, which has the potential to preserve kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease or delay or eliminate the need for dialysis and organ transplantation.

See Note 12 for a discussion of our recent domestication process through which the Company changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware.

For presentation purposes, unless otherwise noted, “ordinary shares” before the domestication and “common stock” subsequent
to the domestication are referred to herein as common stock (see Note 12).

Principles of Consolidation

ProKidney is a holding company, and its principal asset is a controlling equity interest in PKLP and its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries ProKidney-KY and ProKidney-US. The Company has determined that PKLP is a variable-interest entity for accounting purposes and that ProKidney is the primary beneficiary of PKLP because (through its managing member interest in PKLP and the fact that the senior management of ProKidney is also the senior management of PKLP) it has the power and benefits to direct all of the activities of PKLP, which include those that most significantly impact PKLP’s economic performance. The Company has therefore consolidated PKLP’s results pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810, “Consolidation” in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2025, various holders own non-voting interests in PKLP, representing a 54.4% economic interest in PKLP, effectively restricting ProKidney’s interest to 45.6% of PKLP’s economic results, subject to increase in the future, should ProKidney purchase additional non-voting common units (“PKLP Units”) of PKLP, or should the holders of PKLP Units decide to exchange such units (together with shares of Class B common stock) for Class A common stock (or cash) pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (as defined in Note 6). The Company will not be required to provide financial or other support for PKLP. However, ProKidney will control its business and other activities through its managing member interest in PKLP, and its management is the management of PKLP. Nevertheless, because ProKidney will have no material assets other than its interests in PKLP and its subsidiaries, any financial difficulties at PKLP could result in ProKidney recognizing a loss.

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
