Note: Other reserve includes amounts transferred from share-based payment reserve when the share options are exercised or the restricted shares are vested.

1 Consists of 435,833 Pre-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares issued for share options exercised between January 1, 2023 to March 28, 2023. These Pre-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares were exchanged for 31,241 Post-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares, in accordance with the Exchange Ratio upon the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”). On April 26, 2023, additional share options were exercised resulting in the issuance of 16,202 Post-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares.

2 All unvested restricted shares were milestone-based restricted shares held by the Chief Executive Officer of Apollomics which vested upon the Closing of the Business Combination.

3 The Maxpro Warrants assumed by Apollomics upon Closing were reclassified from equity to non-current liabilities due to a net share settlement feature, which precludes equity classification under IAS 32. The reclassification resulted in a reduction to equity (share premium) of $7.1 million (as the warrants are no longer equity-classified upon Closing), an increase to warrant liability of $1.3 million, and a decrease to accumulated losses of $5.8 million. The decrease to accumulated losses is a result of remeasurement of the warrants as a result of their liability classification under IAS 32. As the $5.8 million in accumulated losses relates to Maxpro, these accumulated losses are reclassified to share premium (along with all other historical accumulated losses of Maxpro) as a result of the Business Combination and this reduction to share premium is included in the line titled, “Business Combination, net of redemptions” in the condensed consolidated interim statements of changes in shareholders’ deficit above. As such, the net impact of the warrant reclassification on the condensed consolidated interim statements of changes in shareholders’ deficit is to reduce share premium by $1.3 million ($7.1 million less $5.8 million) and the impact of the warrant reclassification on the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as of June 30, 2023 is to increase warrant liabilities by $1.3 million and reduce share premium by $1.3 million. There is no impact to the condensed consolidated interim statements of loss and comprehensive loss as a result of the reclassification of the Maxpro Warrants outside of the recognition of the change in fair value of the Maxpro Warrants from March 29, 2023 to June 30, 2023.

APOLLOMICS INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1.
GENERAL INFORMATION

Apollomics Inc. (“Apollomics” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on discovering and developing oncology therapies to address unmet medical needs. Since the Company’s founding in 2015, the Company has built a pipeline of nine drug candidates across 11 programs that focus on oncology, of which six drug candidates are in the clinical stage.

The Company was originally formed as CB Therapeutics Inc. as a result of a spin-off from Crown Bioscience International, which was completed on December 31, 2015. Prior to December 2015, Crown Bioscience International, through its subsidiaries, was the owner of certain patent rights relating to certain of these drug candidates. In order to focus on its core business, namely providing preclinical contract research organization services, and allow the drug discovery and development related business to be operated and financed separately, Crown Bioscience International spun off its Taiwan subsidiary, Crown Bioscience (Taiwan), and contributed it to the Company. As a result, we became the owner of these patent rights.

In addition to its U.S. headquarters, the Company also has locations in Australia (Apollomics (Australia) Pty Ltd, formed in November 2016), Hong Kong (Apollomics (Hong Kong) Limited, formed in June 2019) and China (Zhejiang Crownmab Biotech Co. Ltd. and Zhejiang Crown Bochuang Biopharma Co. Ltd., formed in May 2018 and May 2020, respectively). The Company’s headquarters and global drug development team is based in the United States (San Francisco Bay area), while its discovery and China drug development team is based in China (Hangzhou and Shanghai). The Company operates in both the United States and China, with its headquarters and its global drug development team in San Francisco, California and its discovery and China drug development team in Hangzhou and Shanghai, China.

On March 29, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Apollomics consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”) with Maxpro Capital Acquisition Corp. (“Maxpro”), a Delaware corporation and special purpose acquisition company, pursuant to the initial business combination agreement dated September 14, 2022 and subsequent amendment to the business combination agreement dated February 9, 2023 (the “Business Combination Agreement” or “BCA”). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Apollomics became a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). The Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares and warrants are listed on Nasdaq under the trading symbols “APLM” and “APLMW,” respectively. Trading on the Nasdaq commenced on March 30, 2023.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars (“$”). The Company’s subsidiaries included in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are listed below (the Company and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the “Group”). These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared based on the accounting policies which conform with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and have been prepared under the assumption the Company operates on a going concern basis.

BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED interim FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (“IAS 34”) “Interim Financial Reporting” issued by the IASB as well as the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and have been prepared under the assumption the Company operates on a going concern basis.

APOLLOMICS INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

Based upon our 2024 operating plan, and our balance of cash and cash equivalents of $25.9 million as of June 30, 2024, we estimate that we will have sufficient liquidity to continue as a going concern through at least June 30, 2025, and into the third quarter of 2025. We will require additional capital, from equity, debt or strategic partnerships, to continue as a going concern in the future. It is uncertain whether such capital will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are not able to obtain additional capital to meet our cash requirements in the future, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. There can be no assurance that management’s attempts to raise additional capital will be successful, and could ultimately result in reassessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

3.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values.

Other than additional accounting policies resulting from application of amendments to IFRSs, the accounting policies and methods of computation used in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 are the same as those presented in the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Application of amendments to IFRSs

For the purposes of preparing and presenting the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Group has applied the following amendments to IFRSs issued by the IASB, for the first time, which are mandatorily effective for the Group’s annual period beginning on January 1, 2024:

Amendments to IFRS 3

Reference to the Conceptual Framework

Amendments to IAS 16

Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use

Amendments to IFRS Standards

Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018 — 2020

 

The application of the amendments to IFRSs in the current interim period has had no material impact on the Group’s financial position and performance for the current and prior periods and/or on the disclosures set out in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

4.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires the management of the Company to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the critical judgments made by the management of the Company in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

5.
BUSINESS COMBINATION

As previously outlined in Note 1 – General Information, the Company underwent a Business Combination with Maxpro on March 29, 2023. The Business Combination was effected through the issuance of shares of Apollomics to Maxpro stockholders.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the following occurred:

a.
Each Apollomics ordinary share assumed outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, which totaled 401,804,238 shares (other than the exercise of share options), was exchanged for the right to receive 0.071679 shares of post-closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares (the “Exchange Ratio”). The resulting issuance totaled 28,800,926 shares of Apollomics Class B Ordinary Shares. No Class B Ordinary Share is transferable, except to certain permitted transferees, until the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the Closing Date, which was September 29, 2023, or (ii) in the event that a definitive agreement that contemplates a change of control of is entered into, immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control (the “Class B Lock-Up Period”), subject to the conditions set forth in the memorandum and articles of association (“MAA”). Class B Ordinary Shares were automatically converted into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-to-one basis upon the end of

6


APOLLOMICS INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

the Class B Lock-Up Period, provided that the Board may approve such conversion prior to the end of the Class B Lock-Up Period.
b.
In connection with the Business Combination, Apollomics entered into the PIPE Financing with certain accredited investors for an aggregate of 230,000 Class B Ordinary Shares at a price of $10.00 per share, 2,135,000 Series A Preferred Shares at a price of $10.00 per share and 57,500 Penny Warrants to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares, for a total of $23.7 million.
c.
Each share of Maxpro Class A Common Stock (consisting of non-redeemable Common Stock and redeemable Common Stock that was not redeemed at closing) assumed outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination was exchanged for, on a one-for-one basis, shares of Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares.
d.
Each share of Maxpro Class B Common Stock (consisting of non-redeemable Common Stock) assumed outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination was exchanged for, on a one-for-one basis, shares of Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares.
e.
In connection with the Business Combination, Maxpro’s stockholders redeemed 10,270,060 out of the 10,350,000 public shares available, representing 99.2% of Maxpro’s public float, which resulted in Apollomics receiving nominal cash in connection with the Business Combination other than through the PIPE Financing. At closing of the Business Combination, 10,350,000 Maxpro public warrants and 464,150 Maxpro private warrants outstanding were assumed by Apollomics and recorded as a warrant liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial position. The warrant liability will be remeasured each reporting period until the earlier of the warrant expiration date or the warrant exercise date. The Private Warrants or Extension Warrants (including the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of any of such warrants) could not be transferred, assigned or sold until September 29, 2023, the date that was six months after the Closing Date, pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement effective at the Closing Date.
f.
Maxpro had a promissory note payable to the Maxpro Sponsor with a principal balance of $1.5 million immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The unpaid principal amount was converted into 155,250 shares of Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares and 155,250 private warrants upon the closing of the Business Combination. The warrants were recorded as a warrant liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of financial position. The warrant liability will be remeasured each reporting period until the earlier of the warrant expiration date or the warrant exercise date.
g.
Each Maxpro warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination was assumed by Apollomics and became exercisable, on a one-for-one basis, for Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares.
h.
Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, one Apollomics share option holder elected to exercise all of such holder’s options, resulting in the issuance of 435,833 shares of Apollomics Class A Common Stock, which upon the closing of the Business Combination, were canceled and exchanged for the right to receive 0.071679 shares of Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares per share of Apollomics Class A Common Stock, which resulted in the issuance of 31,240 shares of Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase a Pre-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Share, whether vested or unvested, immediately prior to the Merger, was also adjusted such that each option (i) has the right to acquire a number of Apollomics Class B Ordinary Shares equal to (as rounded down to the nearest whole number) the product of (A) the number of Pre-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares which the option had the right to acquire immediately prior to the Share Split, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio; and (ii) have an exercise price equal to (as rounded up to the nearest whole cent) the quotient of (A) the exercise price of the option immediately prior to the Share Split, divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

The net proceeds from the PIPE Financing and Business Combination, totaled $20.2 million.

Note i: In addition to the 57,994,911 shares specified above, the following shares were included in the total 89,495,790 Post-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2023 on the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ deficit: (1) 28,800,926 Post-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares were outstanding as a result of the exchange of all Pre-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022 at the Exchange Ratio, (2) 2,668,750 Post-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares were outstanding as a result of the conversion of Post-Closing Apollomics Series A Preferred Shares into Post-Closing Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares in May 2023 at a conversion ratio of 1 to 1.25, and (3) 16,202 Post-Closing Apollomics Ordinary Shares were outstanding as a result of the exercise of share options in April 2023, and 15,000 Ordinary Shares as a result of the exercise of share options in November 2023.

As Maxpro did not meet the definition of a business in accordance with IFRS 3 (“Business Combinations”), the transaction was accounted for within the scope of IFRS 2 (“Share-based Payment”) as a share-based payment transaction in exchange for a public listing service. As such, the fair value of Apollomics shares transferred to Maxpro stockholders in excess of the net identifiable assets of Maxpro represents compensation for the service of a stock exchange listing for its shares and is accounted for as an expense in post-closing Apollomics at the consummation of the Business Combination. The net identifiable assets of Maxpro were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Apollomics was deemed to be both the legal and accounting acquirer given that subsequent to the Business Combination:

Apollomics’ shareholders have a majority of the voting power of post-closing Apollomics;
Apollomics’ operations comprise all of the ongoing operations of post-closing Apollomics;
Apollomics controls a majority of the governing body of post-closing Apollomics;
Apollomics’ senior management comprise all of the senior management of post-closing Apollomics.

Under IFRS 2, Apollomics recorded a one-time share-based expense of $45.5 million at the closing of the Business Combination that was calculated based on the excess of the fair value of Apollomics over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Maxpro that were acquired. The amount of Maxpro’s identifiable net assets acquired at Closing were as follows:

REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

Revenue

The Group has not generated any revenue throughout the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Segment information

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is made available and is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and operations are managed as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The CODM reviews the consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Group as a whole and hence, the Group has only one operating and reportable segment and no further analysis of this single segment is presented.

The Company primarily operates in the U.S., People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), and Australia, with most of the transactions settled in the U.S. dollar. The Company’s presentation and functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Certain bank balances, deposits and other payables are denominated in Renminbi and Australian dollar, which exposes the Company to foreign currency risk.

The Company incurs portions of its expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, in particular, the Renminbi and Australian dollar. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk as our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company has not entered into any derivative contracts to hedge against its exposure to currency risk during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2024. However, management monitors foreign exchange exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS

Lease agreements are entered into for fixed lease terms of 12 to 60 months, without extension and termination options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. In determining the lease term and assessing the length of the non-cancellable period, the Group applies the definition of a contract and determines the period for which the contract is enforceable. The Group recognized no right-of-use assets or lease liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and recognized right-of-use assets of $0.9 million and lease liabilities of $0.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

14.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Amortization for intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets not yet available for use that are acquired separately are carried at cost less any subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

On May 6, 2024, GlycoMimetics, our licensor of uproleselan in China, announced negative results from its pivotal Phase 3 study of uproleselan in relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. We have been conducting a Phase 3 bridging study of uproleselan in China for the same indication. We believe that positive results from the GlycoMimetics global study was necessary for approval of uproleselan in China for this indication. Therefore, as a result of these negative Phase 3 results from GlycoMimetics, the Company determined the recoverable amount was lower than the carrying value of the intangible asset and recorded an impairment loss of $10.0 million to write down the full value of our intangible asset for this program.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s intangibles had a total cost of $14.9 million and accumulated amortization of $0.1 million, for a net book value totaling $14.8 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s intangibles had a total cost of $4.8 million and accumulated amortization of $0.1 million, for a net book value totaling $4.7 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company determined the negotiation rights were no longer valid and recorded the amount as other income on the condensed consolidated interim statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

 

Note ii: During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Group entered into an exclusive license arrangement for a drug candidate from a second, different independent third party. In 2019, the Group recorded a liability of $0.5 million with respect to an unpaid interim license fee. This fee was unpaid due to a lack of satisfactory progress for this drug candidate. In 2021, the Group terminated this license arrangement with this independent third party. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Group determined that the interim license fee was not payable and recorded the amount as other income on the condensed consolidated interim statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

19.
CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED SHARES

From 2016 through 2020, the Company issued convertible Series A1, Series A2, Series B and Series C preferred shares (the “Preferred Shares”) to several independent investors. The details of such issuances and the key terms of the Preferred Shares are presented in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022. Following the Business Combination on March 29, 2023, none of those Series A1, Series A2, Series B and Series C preferred shares remain outstanding as these were all converted into ordinary shares.

In connection with the Business Combination on March 29, 2023, 2,135,000 shares of Apollomics Series A Preferred Shares were issued to Maxpro Investment Co., Ltd. in the PIPE Financing. On May 18, 2023, the Series A preferred shareholders converted these preferred shares into common shares at a 1.25 exchange ratio, resulting in the issuance of 2,668,750 shares of Apollomics Class A Ordinary Shares. Refer to Note 5 – Business Combination for further information.

As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the Company has no preferred shares outstanding.

The Company accounted for the Preferred Shares as financial liabilities at FVTPL, per IAS standards. The fair value change of the Preferred Shares is charged/credited to fair value change of Preferred Shares in profit or loss except for the portion attributable to credit risk change which shall be charged/credited to other comprehensive income, if any. The fair value change recognized in profit or loss includes interest paid, if any, on the financial liabilities. The management of the Company considered that there is insignificant credit risk change on the financial liabilities that drives the fair value change of the Preferred Shares during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

On July 19, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the 2016 equity incentive plan (the “2016 Plan”) for the purpose of securing and retaining employees, directors and consultants of the Company, providing incentives for them to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company and any affiliate, and providing means by which such persons may benefit from increases in value of the ordinary shares of the Company.

The 2016 Plan provides for the grant of the following types of share awards: (i) restricted share awards, (ii) share options, (iii) share appreciation rights, (iv) restricted share unit awards, and (v) other share awards. The overall limit on the number of underlying shares which may be delivered pursuant to all awards granted under the 2016 Plan was 337,225,866 ordinary shares of the Company as of December 31, 2023, subject to any adjustments for other dilutive issuances.

In connection with the Business Combination, immediately prior to the Closing, the Board terminated the 2016 Plan, and the Board adopted the Apollomics Inc. 2023 Incentive Award Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), which became effective as of the Closing, and 8,679,583 Class A Ordinary Shares have been reserved for issuance. The Incentive Plan allows the Company to make equity and equity-based incentive awards to officers, employees, non-employee directors and the Company’s consultants and affiliates (the “Eligible Persons”). The Company expects to use equity-based awards to promote the Company’s interest by providing Eligible Persons with the opportunity to acquire equity interests as an incentive for their remaining in the Company’s service and aligning their interests with those of the Company’s equity holders. The Company’s Board anticipates that providing such persons with a direct stake in the Company will assure a closer alignment of the interests of such individuals with the Company’s interests and the interests of its shareholders, thereby stimulating their efforts on the Company’s behalf and strengthening their desire to remain with the Company and its affiliates.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, the Company had issued restricted share awards and share options to Eligible Persons and no share appreciation rights, restricted share unit awards or other share awards were granted under either the 2016 Plan or the Incentive Plan by the Company.

Restricted share awards

Under guidance for share-based compensation, the fair value of the Company’s restricted share awards is based on the grant date fair value of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, all restricted share awards were granted with no purchase price. The weighted-average grant date fair value of the restricted share awards was $0.82 during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

The total expense recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of loss and comprehensive loss for the restricted shares granted was $39 thousand and $1.9 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively.

RESTRICTED NET ASSETS

The Company’s ability to pay dividends may depend on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its subsidiaries. The Company’s PRC subsidiaries are subject to relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations which permit payments of dividends only out of retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In the event of such dividends being declared, there would be PRC withholding tax on such dividends. The results of operations reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements prepared in accordance with IAS 34 differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries. Foreign exchange and other regulations in the PRC further restrict the Company’s PRC subsidiaries from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, amounts restricted are the paid-in capital of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries, which amounted to $35.0 million and $35.0 million, respectively.

Overview

We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on discovering and developing oncology therapies to address unmet medical needs, especially for difficult-to-treat and treatment-resistant cancers. Since our founding in 2015, we have built a pipeline of nine product candidates across 11 programs that focus on oncology, of which six product candidates are in the clinical stage. Our two leading product candidates, vebreltinib (APL-101) and uproleselan (APL-106), have shown initial promising clinical results and are in registration trials.

We were originally formed as CB Therapeutics Inc. as a result of a spin-off of Crown Bioscience International, which was completed on December 31, 2015. As a result, we became the owner of certain patent and intellectual property rights relating to some of our product candidates. For more information relating to the series of transactions resulting in our acquisition of these patent rights, please see the section of our Annual Report entitled “Intellectual Property Assignment.”

Our strategic focus is the development of novel therapies targeting difficult to treat cancers. We use both targeted, immuno-oncology, and other innovative approaches to address a range of cancer indications, such as acute myeloid leukemia, lung cancer, brain cancer, and other solid tumors. Our pipeline includes a variety of cancer treatment programs that utilize tumor inhibitors, cell adhesion inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, a cancer vaccine, monotherapies, combination therapies or a multi-functional protein with the goals to improve response rates and reduce chemo-resistance and toxicity compared to the current treatment standards. We have adopted a biomarker-driven diagnostic approach for patient screening to increase precision in identifying patients that can potentially benefit from target therapy.

Recent Events

On July 3, 2024, we announced an updated strategic focus for the clinical development of vebreltinib by focusing on NSCLC patients with Met Amplification, as well as changes to our executive leadership team. Our SPARTA Phase 2 clinical trial will continue to enroll NSCLC patients with Met amplification. We will continue to follow the currently enrolled patients in the ongoing SPARTA study with solid tumors with MET alterations, which include those with Met Exon 14 skipping mutations and those treated with combination therapy with EGFR inhibitors, to support vebreltinib safety and efficacy across multiple indications. In addition, as of August 1, 2024, Sanjeev Redkar, Ph.D., Company co-founder and President, and Peony Yu, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, have transitioned to consulting roles.

Our Product Candidates

The product candidates in our pipeline can be categorized into three groups based on their mechanisms of action, each of which contains product candidates at different stages of development: (i) tumor inhibitors, (ii) anti-cancer enhancers, and (iii) immuno-oncology drugs. We believe that having three groups of product candidates with different mechanisms of action will enable us to develop potential synergistic therapies that address unmet needs in cancer treatment.

Tumor Inhibitors

Our tumor inhibitor product candidates consist of three small molecule inhibitors against different uncontrolled growth signaling pathways in cancer cells: vebreltinib, APL-102 and APL-122. We are developing therapies that may target alternative pathways to overcome cancer treatment resistance, including chemo-resistance and targeted therapy resistance.

Vebreltinib (APL-101). Our most advanced product candidate is vebreltinib, a potent, oral active, highly selective c-Met inhibitor. Cancer cells often use c-Met activation to escape therapies targeting other signaling pathways. Capmatinib and tepotinib, two c-Met inhibitors, were approved by the FDA for the treatment of metastatic NSCLC with Met Exon 14 skipping in 2020 and 2021 under accelerated approval, respectively, followed by traditional approvals in 2022 and 2024, rendering Met Exon 14 skipping a clinically validated target. Avistone, our partner in China, received conditional approval from the China National Medical Products Association (“NMPA”) for vebreltinib in November 2023 for the same indication. In addition, in April 2024, Avistone received conditional approval from the NMPA for vebreltinib for the treatment of gliomas with a PTPRZ1-MET fusion (ZM fusion) gene after failure of previous treatments. We believe that the potential of vebreltinib in cancers with genetic mutations, amplification or fusion of the c-Met gene presents a significant opportunity for us. We are investigating vebreltinib in clinical trials as a single agent for the potential treatment of NSCLC and other advanced tumors with c-Met alterations, and also as a combination therapy with epidermal growth factor receptor (“EGFR”) inhibitors. We have obtained orphan drug designation for vebreltinib for the “treatment of non-small cell lung cancer with MET genomic tumor aberrations,” which includes Met Exon 14 skipping and c-Met amplification. Our primary focus for the future development of vebreltinib will be for the treatment of NSCLC with c-Met Amplification. We intend to continue to explore the opportunity for combining vebreltinib with other approved drugs or product candidates.

APL-102. APL-102 is an oral active, small molecule Multiple Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (“MTKi”). Data regarding anti-tumor activity in multiple preclinical studies is included in the section of our Annual Report entitled “APL-102 (MTKi)”, such as models of liver cancer, breast cancer and esophageal cancer, both as a single agent and in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody. Given that APL-102 inhibits several kinases that are aberrantly activated in cancer cells, we believe that APL-102 has the potential to overcome cancer treatment resistance. APL-102 is in a Phase 1 dose escalation clinical trial in China and is at the seventh dose level. As of the date of this MD&A, dose-limiting toxicity has not been observed in human subjects.

APL-122. APL-122 is a tumor inhibitor candidate, targeting ErbB1/2/4 signaling pathways. APL-122 reaches the brain tissue in preclinical studies, and has the potential to treat cancers within the brain. APL-122 is currently in Phase 1 dose escalation in Australia.

Anti-Cancer Enhancers

Our anti-cancer enhancer product candidates uproleselan (APL-106, GMI-1271) and APL-108, are antagonists of a cell adhesion receptor called E-selectin. They are being developed as adjuncts to chemotherapy to enhance its anti-cancer effects. Binding of cancer cells to E-Selectin on cells within the bone marrow enhances their adhesion to the endothelium in bone marrow niches, thereby preventing the cancer cells from entering circulation and shielding them from chemotherapy. Uproleselan and APL-108 are designed to block E-selectin from binding with blood cancer cells as a novel approach to disrupting well-established mechanisms of leukemic cell resistance within the bone marrow microenvironment.

Uproleselan. Uproleselan was granted breakthrough therapy designation by the NMPA for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (“AML”), which may facilitate its development and expedite agency

review. GlycoMimetics has received breakthrough therapy designation by the FDA for uproleselan in the same indication. It is administered in combination with chemotherapy for the potential treatment of relapsed or refractory (“r/r”) AML in an ongoing Phase 3 bridging clinical study in China that fully enrolled its 140 patients in December 2023. A global Phase 3 clinical study sponsored by GlycoMimetics, from whom we licensed China rights, in r/r AML has fully enrolled its 388 patients since November 2021. On May 6, 2024, GlycoMimetics announced negative results from its pivotal Phase 3 study of uproleselan in r/r AML. We believe that positive results from the GlycoMimetics global study was necessary for approval of uproleselan in China for this indication. Therefore, we have decided to close this study early and unblind after treatment for all patients is complete. As a result of these negative Phase 3 results from GlycoMimetics, we determined the recoverable amount was lower than the carrying value of the intangible asset, and we recorded an impairment of $10.0 million to write down the full value of our intangible asset for this program. The National Cancer Institute is sponsoring an ongoing Phase 2/3 study with uproleselan in the United States for the potential treatment of newly diagnosed older adults with AML who are fit for chemotherapy. The Phase 2 portion of the study has also been fully enrolled.

APL-108. APL-108 (GMI-1687), a second-generation E-selective inhibitor with potentially even higher potency, is suitable for subcutaneous administration and potentially able to target other liquid and solid cancers. GlycoMimetics has completed a Phase 1 study in healthy volunteers, and reported that the study primary and secondary endpoints were met with no dose-limiting toxicities or safety signals. GMI-1687 is being developed as a potential patient-controlled point-of-care treatment for inflammatory diseases, with initial focus on sickle cell disease (“SCD”) by GlycoMimetics.

Immuno-Oncology Drugs

Our immuno-oncology product candidates consist of: APL-501, APL-502, APL-801 and APL-810. These product candidates are designed to take advantage of the body’s immune system to fight cancer and include mono-specific and bi-specific antibodies that could release the natural brakes of immune response against cancer cells, as well as a novel cancer vaccine.

APL-501. APL-501 is an anti-PD-1 antibody product candidate.

APL-502. APL-502 is an anti-PD-L1 antibody product candidate and is being developed by Chia Tai Tian Qing (“CTTQ”), our partner in China. APL-502 is being evaluated for treatment of at least six different cancers in Phase 3 studies in China.

Having our own anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibody candidates allows us to develop single-agent and combination therapies based on PD-(L)1 inhibition and also enables us to, using these antibodies as backbones, design and generate novel molecules, such as multi-specific antibodies, which may have improved activity compared with currently marketed immune checkpoint inhibitor products.

Our pipeline also includes two other novel immuno-oncology product candidates, an anti-PD-L1/anti-CD40 bi-specific antibody, APL-801, and an antigen-specific, active checkpoint-control cancer vaccine, APL-810.

Product Candidate Development Status

The status of our pipeline of product candidates range from the discovery stage to the clinical stage. The following chart summarizes the development status of our product candidates. Third parties also have ongoing clinical trials in their respective territories.

Key highlights of clinical trials conducted by third parties on our product candidates include:

Avistone has conducted clinical trials for vebreltinib in China through the completion of Phase 2 in NSCLC with c-Met alterations, and has completed a Phase 2/3 study in GBM with PTPRZ1 c-Met fusion;
GlycoMimetics has conducted clinical trials for uproleselan into Phase 3 in r/r AML in the rest of the world outside of China, and National Cancer Institute (“NCI”) is conducting Phase 2/3 first line AML in the US;
GlycoMimetics has completed a Phase 1a study for APL-108;
Genor has conducted clinical trials for APL-501 in China through Phase 3; and
CTTQ has conducted clinical trials for APL-502 in China into Phase 3.

Apollomics is not responsible for, and does not have control over, clinical trials conducted by such third parties and does not have any direct financial interest in the development of our product candidates by such third parties. However, the development of our product candidates by such third parties has the potential to benefit the regulatory status and development costs of such product candidates in the geographies and trials for which we are responsible and have control over, due to our ability to access the developmental and clinical data from such third parties and to benefit from the feedback of such trials as information regarding such trials is made available. For more information regarding our arrangements with third parties, please see the section of our Annual Report entitled “Licensing and Collaboration Arrangements.”

Key Components of Our Results of Operations

Operating Expenses

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for our research activities, including our discovery efforts and the development of our product candidates. We expense research and development costs as incurred, which include:

fees incurred under our agreements with Contract Research Organizations (or CROs), Contract Manufacturing Organizations (or CMOs) and clinical trial sites that conduct research and development activities on our behalf;
salaries, benefits, and other related costs, including share-based payment expenses, for our personnel engaged in research and development functions;

 

4


service fees incurred under agreements with independent consultants, including their fees and related travel expenses, engaged in research and development functions;
costs of laboratory supplies and acquiring, developing, and manufacturing study materials; and
facility-related expenses, which include direct depreciation costs and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities and other operating costs.

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Costs for certain development activities are recognized based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using information and data provided to us by our vendors and our clinical sites.

We cannot determine with certainty the duration and completion costs of the current or future clinical trials of our therapeutic candidates or if, when, or to what extent we will generate revenues from the commercialization and sale of any of our therapeutic candidates for which we or any partner obtain regulatory approval.

The duration, costs and timing of clinical trials and development of therapeutic candidates will depend on a variety of factors, including:

the scope, rate of progress, and expense of our ongoing, as well as any additional, clinical trials and other research and development activities;
future clinical trial results;
potential changes in government regulation; and
the timing and receipt of any regulatory approvals.

A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of a therapeutic candidate could mean a significant change in the costs and timing associated with the development of that therapeutic candidate. For example, if the FDA or another regulatory authority were to require us to conduct clinical trials beyond that which we currently anticipate, or beyond which will be required for the completion of the clinical development of therapeutic candidates, or if we experience significant delays in the enrollment in any clinical trials, we could be required to expend significant additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development.

From inception through June 30, 2024, we have incurred $179.2 million in research and development expenses. We plan to increase our research and development expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue the development of our therapeutic candidates, the discovery and development of preclinical therapeutic candidates, and the development of our clinical programs.

We manage certain activities such as clinical trial operations, manufacture of therapeutic candidates, and preclinical animal toxicology studies through third-party CROs. The only costs we track by each therapeutic candidate are external costs such as services provided to us by CROs, manufacturing of preclinical and clinical drug products, and other outsourced research and development expenses. We do not assign or allocate internal costs such as salaries and benefits, facilities costs, lab supplies and the costs of preclinical research and studies to individual development programs.

Research and development activities are central to our business model. As a result of the focus on enrolling new patients with Met Amplification in the SPARTA study and other cost reductions in the SPARTA operations and completion of the uproleselan Phase 3 bridging study in China, we expect that our research and development expenses will decrease in the foreseeable future.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, and other related costs, including share-based payment expense, for personnel in our executive, operations, legal, human resources, finance, and administrative functions. Administrative expenses also include professional fees for legal, patent, consulting, accounting, tax and audit services, travel expenses and facility-related expenses, which include direct depreciation costs and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, technology, and other operating costs.

We expect that our administrative expenses will decrease substantially in the future in line with our strategic shift, as we decrease our administrative personnel, including the departure of two of our executive officers, and overall reduction of external expenses.

Other Expenses

Other expenses primarily relate to professional fees in connection with our business combination with Maxpro Capital Acquisition Corp. (“Maxpro”), a Delaware corporation and special purpose acquisition company (the “Business Combination”).

Other Income, Gains and Losses

Other Income

Other income primarily includes income from a licensee whose negotiation period was no longer valid and income for a liability that was extinguished in the current year. Other income also includes interest income primarily derived from our cash and cash equivalents.

Foreign Exchange Losses

Foreign exchange losses are a result of foreign exchange rate fluctuation.

Fair Value Change of Financial Assets at FVTPL

Fair value change of financial assets at FVTPL consisted of non-cash impacts on our profit or loss as a result of the fair value change of our investment in a market fund in the U.S. which solely holds investments in U.S. treasury bonds. As of June 30, 2024, we did not hold any financial assets at FVTPL.

Fair Value Change of Financial Liabilities at FVTPL

Fair value change of financial liabilities at FVTPL consist of non-cash impacts on our profit or loss as a result of the fair value change of the liabilities arising from warrants issued to certain independent investors.

Impairment Loss on Intangible Assets

Impairment loss on intangible assets of $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 consisted of the full write down of the previously recorded intangible asset related to our license of uproleselan in China. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 no impairment loss was recognized.

Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $16.9 million, compared to $16.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $0.4 million (or 2%) is primarily due to the $0.9 million increase in employee share-based compensation, and partially offset by the $0.3 million decrease in third party service fees and contractor expenses and the $0.2 million decrease in employee compensation and benefits. The increase in employee share-based compensation was primarily attributable to increased share options granted to incentivize employees. The decrease in third party service fees and contractor expenses was attributable primarily to a decrease in spending on APL-101 and APL-501 due to project re-alignment, offset by an increase in timing of spending on APL-106. The decrease in employee compensation and benefits was due to a reduction in headcount.

We manage our R&D third-party service fees and our contractor expenses by product, which is shown in the table above. We do not allocate our R&D employee compensation and benefits, nor our R&D employee share-based compensation into our product lines.

Administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $10.2 million, compared to $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $0.5 million (or 5%) was primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in administrative employee share-based compensation for share options granted to incentivize employees, and a $0.3 million increase in administrative third-party service fees, and partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in other administrative expenses mainly from directors’ and officers’ insurance, a $0.3 million decrease in administrative employee compensation and benefits due to reduced headcount and salary reductions, a $0.2 million decrease in depreciation on capitalized assets, as well as a $0.2 million decrease in other categories due to cost saving measures.

Other Expenses

Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were $90 thousand, compared to $47.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Other expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily include expenses related to the Business Combination.

Other income was $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of $1.3 million was primarily due to the Company recognizing $1.5 million in income related to the reversal of liabilities for licensing and option agreements in which the negotiation periods had lapsed, as described in Note 18, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in interest income mainly from our China investments.

Fair Value Change of Convertible Preferred Shares

The fair value change of convertible preferred shares was nil for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to an increase in fair value of $76.4 million for the six months ended June 20, 2023. The fair value change of convertible preferred shares reflects the conversion of convertible preferred shares due to the Business Combination.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Funding Requirements

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. We expect to incur significant expenses and continuing operating losses for the foreseeable future as we advance the clinical development of our programs. We have funded our operations to date primarily with proceeds from sales of our equity securities.

The following table represents our cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid financial assets as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024:

We may seek to raise any necessary additional capital through a combination of public or private equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements and other marketing and distribution arrangements. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring additional funding at levels sufficient to fund our operations or on terms favorable to us. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing when needed, we may have to delay, reduce the scope of or suspend one or more of our preclinical studies and clinical trials, research and development programs or commercialization efforts. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development and commercialization of our product candidates and the extent to which we may enter into additional collaborations with third parties to participate in their development and commercialization, we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenditures associated with our current and anticipated preclinical studies and clinical trials. To the extent that we raise additional capital through additional collaborations, strategic alliances, or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our product candidates, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we do raise additional capital through public or private equity or convertible debt offerings, the ownership interest of our existing shareholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect our shareholders’ rights. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we may be subject to covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, or declaring dividends.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we believe our cash on hand, without regard to any such cash proceeds we may receive upon the exercise for cash of our warrants, is sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. While we have outstanding warrants, which may provide an additional source of cash upon exercise, for so long as the warrants remain “out-of-the money”, we do not expect warrant holders to exercise their warrants and, therefore, we do not expect to receive cash proceeds from any such exercise. If and to the extent we determine to raise additional capital in the future, there can be no assurance that such additional capital would be available on attractive terms, if at all.

Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report.

Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

Our cash flows from operating activities are significantly affected by the growth of our business, and are primarily related to research and development, and administrative expenses. Our operating cash flows are also affected by our working capital needs to support growth in personnel-related expenditures and fluctuations in accounts payable, accounts receivable and other current assets and liabilities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $(24.4) million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 resulting primarily from a net loss of $(150.7) million, adjusted for non-cash charges of $(0.4) million in interest income, $0.4 million in depreciation and amortization, including amortization of operating right of use of assets, $(0.9) million in realized exchange gains, $(0.5) million in negative fair value change of financial assets at FVTPL, $(0.7) million in fair value change of financial liabilities at FVPL, $76.4 million in positive fair value change of convertible preferred shares, $45.5 million for IFRS 2 listing expense, $5.3 million in share-based payments, $3.0 million in unrealized foreign currency losses, $(1.9) million in working capital adjustments and $(10) thousand in taxes paid.

Net cash used in operating activities was $(16.0) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 resulting primarily from a net loss of $(35.2) million, adjusted for non-cash charges of $0.2 million in depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of operating right-of-use of assets, $10.0 million of impairment charges on intangible assets, $(0.2) million in fair value change of financial liabilities at FVTPL, $8.2 million in share-based payments, and $0.9 million in working capital adjustments.

Cash Flows Used in/Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $(0.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 resulting primarily from interest received of $0.4 million, the proceeds from redemption of time deposits with maturity over three months when acquired of $4.3 million, the placement of time deposits with maturity over three months when acquired of $(4.0) million, purchase of plant and equipment of $(6) thousand, placement investments through FVTPL of $(0.9) million and refunds of deposits totaling $5 thousand.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 resulting primarily from the proceeds from redemption of placement investments through FVTPL of $5.8 million.

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $17.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 resulting primarily from the proceeds from the PIPE financing and Business Combination, net of transaction costs, for $20.2 million, payment of deferred underwriting fees of $(2.8) million, the issue of shares upon exercise of share options for $0.1 million, the payment of interest of $(0.1) million, and repayment of lease liabilities for $(0.3) million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 resulting primarily from the proceeds from the PIPE financing, net of transaction costs of $5.0 million offset by the net payment of bank loans of $(0.7) million and payment of interest of $(0.1) million.

Effects of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash and Cash Equivalents

Effects of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was $19 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 resulting primarily from the translation of the Company's property and equipment of $3 thousand and right-of-use assets of $16 thousand from Renminbi to US Dollar.

Effects of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents were insignificant for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Lease Commitments

Lease agreements are entered into for fixed lease terms of 12 to 60 months, without extension and termination options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. In determining the lease term and assessing the length of the non-cancelable period, the Company applies the definition of a contract and determines the period for which the contract is enforceable. The Company recognized no right-of-use assets or lease liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and $0.9 million in right-of-use assets and $0.9 million in lease liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future significant effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, or cash flows.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This MD&A is based on our condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting policies that conform with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). In the application of our accounting policies, our management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Our actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Our most critical accounting policies and estimates are summarized below. Please refer to Note 4 to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this filing for more details about our significant accounting policies and critical judgment and key estimates.

Legal Proceedings

On July 22, 2024, the Company received a copy of a Writ and Statement of Claim issued in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands by two minority investors in the Company. As previously disclosed, in December 2022 the two minority investors made a request to redeem certain preferred shares of the Company shortly before the consummation of the public merger with Maxpro Capital Acquisition Corporation. Following the request, the Company’s shareholders approved the merger with Maxpro Capital Acquisition Corporation, which triggered the cancellation of all private preferred share rights and conversion of the Company’s then outstanding private preferred shares to Ordinary Shares. Following the consummation of the merger, the two minority investors have been, and currently remain, registered shareholders of the Company and hold Ordinary Shares. The current assertion is that they are creditors entitled to certain redemption proceeds in connection with their pre-merger redemption requests. The Company has given notice that it intends to vigorously defend such claims and believes there are meritorious defenses to the claims that have been brought.

Emerging Growth Company

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible for and intend to rely on certain exemptions and reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act, including (a) the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (b) the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements and (c) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements. Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.

 

11


We will remain an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of the second quarter of that fiscal year, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which it has total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more during such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation), (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three-year period or (iv) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the closing of the Business Combination.

Impairment of financial assets

We perform impairment assessment under expected credit loss (“ECL”) model on financial assets (including deposits, amounts due from subsidiaries, time deposits with original maturity over three months and cash and cash equivalents) which are subject to impairment under IFRS 9. The amount of ECL is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition.

Lifetime ECL represents the ECL that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of the relevant instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECL (“12m ECL”) represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date. Assessments are done based on our historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions, and an assessment of both the current conditions at the reporting date as well as the forecast of future conditions.

For all financial instruments, we measure the loss allowance equal to 12m ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Group recognizes lifetime ECL. The assessment of whether lifetime ECL should be recognized is based on significant increases in the likelihood or risk of a default occurring since initial recognition.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 3, Principal Accounting Policies, to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this filing.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including currency risk, concentration risks, interest rate risk, other price risk, credit and counterparty risk and liquidity risk, as set out below. We manage and monitor these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented in a timely and effective manner. Save as disclosed below, we did not hedge or consider necessary to hedge any of these risks.

Currency Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument fluctuates because of the change in foreign exchange rates. We primarily operate in the U.S., PRC, and Australia, with most of the transactions settled in the U.S. dollar. Our presentation and functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Certain bank balances, deposits and other payables are denominated in Renminbi and Australian dollar, which exposes us to foreign currency risk.

We incur portions of our expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, in particular, the Renminbi and Australian dollar. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk as our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have not entered into any derivative contracts to hedge against our exposure to currency risk during the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2024. However, our management monitors foreign exchange exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

The carrying amounts of our foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of each reporting period are as follows:

As of June 30, 2023 and 2024, (i) if Renminbi strengthened or weakened by 5% against the U.S. dollar with all other variables held constant, our loss for the six months June 30, 2023 and 2024 would decrease or increase by $131 thousand and decrease or increase by $124 thousand, respectively; and (ii) if the Australian dollar strengthened or weakened by 5% against the U.S. dollar with all other variables held constant, our loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 would decrease or increase by $29 thousand and decrease or increase by $3 thousand, respectively.

Concentration of Risks

The carrying amounts of financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, we had RMB 78.4 million ($11.1 million) in cash and cash equivalents, and RMB 57.6 million ($8.1 million), respectively, in cash and cash equivalents which are held by financial institutions in the PRC. We continue to monitor the financial strength of the four financial institutions in the PRC where we hold our cash and cash equivalents. PRC state-owned banks are subject to a series of risk control regulatory standards, and PRC bank regulatory authorities are empowered to take over the operation and management when any of those banks faces a material credit crisis. We do not foresee substantial credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents held at these PRC state-owned banks. Meanwhile, the PRC does not have an official deposit insurance program, nor does it have an agency similar to what was the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in the U.S. In the event of bankruptcy of one of the financial institutions in which we have deposits or investments, we may be unlikely to claim our deposits or investments back in full. We selected reputable PRC financial institutions with high ratings to place our foreign currencies. We regularly monitor the rating of these PRC financial institutions to avoid any potential defaults. There has been no recent history of default in relation to these financial institutions.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to fair value interest rate risk in relation to time deposits and lease liabilities. We are also exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to variable-rate bank balances. Our cash flow interest rate risk is mainly concentrated on the fluctuation of interest rates on bank balances. Our management considers that the exposure of cash flow interest rate risk arising from variable-rate bank balances is insignificant.

Other Price Risk

We are exposed to other price risk arising from the investment in market fund in the U.S. No sensitivity analysis with respect to our investment in money market funds in the U.S. is performed as our management considers that the exposure of other price risk arising from the investment in money market funds in the U.S. is insignificant because the investment is mainly in U.S. treasury bonds with high credit rating and liquidity.

Credit and Counterparty Risk

Credit and counterparty risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to us. In order to minimize the credit risk, our management reviews the recoverable amount of each individual debt at the end of each reporting period to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, our management considers that our credit and counterparty risk is significantly reduced.

 

13


Liquidity Risk

As of June 30, 2024, we recorded net assets of $20.8 million. In the management of liquidity risk, our management has reviewed our cash flow projections to ensure we maintain a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance our operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.

The following table details the remaining contractual maturity for our non-derivative financial liabilities and lease liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which we can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are a floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from the interest rate at the end of each reporting period.

Exhibit 99.3

Apollomics Reports First Half 2024 Financial Results and Highlights Vebreltinib Clinical Progress

Continued clinical progress for the vebreltinib registration-enabling program, including new data in non-CNS MET fusion tumors and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with MET amplification
$25.9 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024; cash runway into the third quarter of 2025

FOSTER CITY, Calif. – August 14, 2024 – Apollomics Inc. (Nasdaq: APLM) (“Apollomics” or the “Company”), a late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company developing multiple oncology drug candidates to address difficult-to-treat and treatment-resistant cancers, today announced financial results for the first half of 2024 ended June 30, 2024, and highlighted updates for its pipeline.

“Thus far in 2024, we have announced promising preliminary results from our vebreltinib program for the treatment of various tumors with Met dysregulation. This includes new Apollomics data for the treatment of non-CNS solid tumors with Met fusions, an incremental data update for NSCLC with MET Exon 14 skipping earlier in the year and data for the treatment of NSCLC with MET Amplification shared in this announcement,” said Guo-Liang Yu, Ph.D., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Apollomics. “We are encouraged by these new data and remain focused on progressing the vebreltinib program to its first regulatory submission. We look forward to providing future data updates for this program.”

Pipeline Update

Vebreltinib (APL-101) – a highly specific Met inhibitor for the treatment of NSCLC and other solid tumors with Met dysregulation
o
In August 2024, the Company announced data from its SPARTA Phase 2 clinical trial for 14 patients with non-CNS MET fusion solid tumors, where a 43% objective response rate (ORR) was achieved by RECIST v1.1 criteria. This includes six confirmed responses out of 14 evaluable patients: one complete response in second-line metastatic NSCLC and five partial responses (three patients with NSCLC, one patient with pancreatic cancer, and one patient with intrahepatic bile duct cancer). Alongside the Avistone data for vebreltinib in the treatment of glioblastoma with PTPRZ1 MET fusions, vebreltinib has now demonstrated activity in a variety of tumors with MET fusions.
o
Apollomics has also recently completed an analysis of 38 patients in the SPARTA MET amplification cohorts. Testing method discordance (determination of MET amplification by status sequencing of blood, sequencing of tumor biopsies, and/or fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH), as well as the use of local versus central laboratory testing), has complicated the analysis. Of the patients with the highest MET gene copy number (GCN) as determined by central sequencing, an ORR of 30% (3/10) was achieved, as compared to 13% (5/38) in the overall dataset. Going forward, Apollomics will only enroll NSCLC patients with MET amplification confirmed by central FISH testing. Apollomics believes that MET GCN ≥10 by sequencing may be comparable to GCN ≥6 by central FISH testing, which is the criteria to define MET amplification used in previous clinical trials of other MET inhibitors.
o
In March 2024, Apollomics announced an updated efficacy analysis by gene copy number (GCN) subgroup in the treatment of NSCLC patients with Met Exon 14 skipping mutations. The data show vebreltinib activity similar to previously announced. In the absence of overlapping c-Met amplification (GCN<4), in a pooled analysis of patients from SPARTA and KUNPENG an ORR of 67% was achieved (n=86).

Uproleselan (APL-106) – an E-selectin inhibitor as an adjunct to chemotherapy in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment
o
In May 2024, GlycoMimetics, our licensor of uproleselan in China, announced negative results from its pivotal Phase 3 study of uproleselan in relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Apollomics is conducting a Phase 3 bridging study of uproleselan in China for the same indication. As positive results from the GlycoMimetics global study were likely necessary for approval of uproleselan in China for this indication, the Company has decided to close this study early and unblind after treatment for all patients is completed. As a result of these negative Phase 3 results from GlycoMimetics, the Company determined the recoverable amount was lower than the carrying value of the intangible asset and recorded an impairment loss of $10.0 million to write down the full value of our intangible asset for this program.

Business Highlights

Focus on vebreltinib: In July 2024, Apollomics announced a strategic prioritization for the treatment of NSCLC patients with Met Amplification. By focusing on the patient population with the greatest unmet medical need that can be addressed by MET inhibition with vebreltinib, Apollomics intends to apply its resources in the most efficient manner to generate additional clinical data for support of regulatory submissions.
Leadership team changes: As previously announced, as a result of the updated strategic focus, and aligned with the Company’s resource needs going forward, Sanjeev Redkar, Ph.D., Company co-founder and former President, and Peony Yu, M.D., former Chief Medical Officer, have departed their previous roles and are expected to transition to consulting roles in August. Dr. Redkar will remain on the Board of Directors.
Raised $5.8 million: In May 2024, the Company raised $5.8 million in a private placement in public equity (PIPE) financing, before transaction expenses.

 

First Half 2024 Financial Results

Cash, cash equivalents, bank deposits and money market funds as of June 30, 2024 were $25.9 million, compared to $37.8 million as of December 31, 2023. Based on current projections, the Company believes its cash position is sufficient to fund planned operations into the third quarter of 2025.
Research and development (R&D) expenses were $16.9 million, including share-based compensation of $3.7 million, for the first half of 2024, compared to $16.5 million, including share-based compensation of $2.8 million, for the first half of 2023.
General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $10.2 million, including share-based compensation of $4.5 million, for the first half of 2024, compared to $9.7 million, including share-based compensation of $2.4 million, for the first half of 2023.
Net loss for the first half of 2024 was $(35.2) million, or $(0.38) per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $(150.7) million, or $(2.55) per basic and diluted share, for the first half of 2023. Net loss for the first half of 2024 includes an impairment loss of $10.0 million to write down the full value of the uproleselan intangible asset. Net loss for the first half of 2023 includes a non-cash expense for change in fair value of convertible preferred shares of $76.4 million and expenses related to capital markets activities of $45.5 million.
