Company Overview

We are a precision medicine oncology company committed to the discovery and development of targeted therapeutics for patient populations selected using molecular diagnostics. Our clinical pipeline includes four potential first-in-class clinical-stage product candidates – darovasertib (PKC), IDE397 (MAT2A), IDE161 (PARG) and GSK101 (Pol Theta Helicase), and we own or control all commercial rights for the three most advanced of these product candidates: darovasertib, IDE397 and IDE161. We are also advancing our Werner Helicase program for which we have selected a development candidate in collaboration with GSK and, subject to investigational new drug-, or IND-, enabling studies, are targeting an IND in 2024. We also have multiple earlier-stage preclinical programs. We have established selective, value-accretive collaborations with leading pharmaceutical companies to support our clinical development activities.

Our most advanced clinical program is evaluating darovasertib (IDE196) a small molecule protein kinase C, or PKC, inhibitor, in uveal melanoma, or UM. We are evaluating darovasertib in combination with crizotinib, an investigational cMET inhibitor in a potential registrational clinical trial in patients having metastatic UM, or MUM. We are also evaluating darovasertib as monotherapy in a Phase 2 clinical trial in primary UM.

We have initiated a potential registration-enabling Phase 2/3 clinical trial to evaluate the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in MUM patients with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*02:01 negative, or HLA-A2(-), serotype. We have opened multiple clinical sites where we are recruiting patients for enrollment in this planned global Phase 2/3 clinical trial. We reported positive interim clinical data in April 2023 from our Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating darovasertib and crizotinib in MUM. We also reported darovasertib clinical top line results, circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA, data and HLA-A2(-)/(+) data subsets from this Phase 2 clinical trial, and HLA-A2(-)/(+) prevalence based on our broader clinical experience in MUM, at the European Society for Medical Oncology’s Congress in October 2023, or ESMO 2023.

We are also planning to enroll additional HLA-A*02:01 positive, or HLA-A2(+), patients in a separate clinical trial as an independent clinical strategy to address HLA-A2(+) MUM patients. This strategy reflects observed darovasertib clinical activity irrespective of HLA serotype and demonstrates our commitment to fully address the high unmet medical need in MUM.

We separately initiated and have dosed a first patient in our Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating darovasertib as single-agent neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in patients having primary UM, with ongoing enrollment and

multiple clinical sites open. We are also supporting evaluation of darovasertib as single-agent neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in primary UM in an ongoing investigator-sponsored clinical trial, or IST, captioned as “Neoadjuvant / Adjuvant trial of Darovasertib in Ocular Melanoma,” or NADOM, and led by St. Vincent’s Hospital in Sydney with the participation of Alfred Health and the Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital in Melbourne. We reported proof-of-concept evidence in April 2023, June 2023, and October 2023 for darovasertib as neoadjuvant therapy in primary UM.

IDE397, our small molecule methionine adenosyltransferase 2a, or MAT2A, inhibitor, is being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial. We are actively enrolling into the Phase 2 monotherapy expansion cohort in selected priority indications for patients having tumors with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase, or MTAP, gene deletion, including non-small cell lung cancer, or NSCLC, bladder, gastric and esophageal cancers. We observed IDE397 monotherapy responses in multiple priority solid tumor types of squamous NSCLC and bladder cancer based on experience across several patients in the early phase of the Phase 2 dose expansion.

In collaboration with Amgen, we achieved IND clearance for, and have dosed a first patient in, an Amgen-sponsored Phase 1/2 clinical trial evaluating IDE397 in combination with AMG 193, the Amgen investigational MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor, in patients having tumors with MTAP deletion, or the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study. This potential first-in-class synthetic lethality combination targets mechanistically complementary nodes of the MTAP methylation pathway—MAT2A and PRMT5—and is supported by compelling preclinical anti-tumor efficacy presented at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research, or AACR 2023.

IDE161, our small molecule poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, or PARG, inhibitor, is being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial, currently in monotherapy expansion with a strategic focus in estrogen receptor positive, or ER+, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative, or Her2-, HRD+ breast cancer as well as HRD+ ovarian cancer with homologous recombination deficiency, or HRD, and other solid tumors with HRD. We are, in parallel, continuing with Phase 1 dose optimization of IDE161 in patients having tumors with HRD. We have observed multiple partial responses, or PRs, by RECIST 1.1. and tumor shrinkage in priority solid tumor types early in the Phase 1 dose escalation and at the expansion dose. We received Fast Track Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for IDE161 for ovarian cancer and breast cancer indications, specifically for the treatment of (i) adult, pretreated, platinum-resistant advanced or metastatic ovarian cancer patients having tumors with BRCA1/2 mutations and (ii) adult, pretreated, advanced or metastatic hormone receptor positive, or HR+, Her2- and BRCA1/2 mutant breast cancer patients.

GSK101 (IDE705), our Pol Theta Helicase inhibitor clinical development candidate, is a potential first-in-class small molecule inhibitor of the helicase domain of Polymerase Theta, or Pol Theta. GSK101 was discovered and evaluated in preclinical studies in collaboration with GSK. The IND for GSK101 has been cleared by the FDA and we anticipate initiation of first-in-human studies in the fourth quarter of 2023. GSK plans to evaluate GSK101 under a GSK-sponsored clinical trial in combination with niraparib, the GSK small molecule inhibitor of poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase, or PARP, for patients having tumors with homologous recombination, or HR, mutations, such as BRCA mutations, or HRD. GSK will lead clinical development for GSK101 and is responsible for all research and development costs for the Pol Theta program.

We have selected a Werner Helicase inhibitor development candidate, or Werner Helicase inhibitor DC, in collaboration with GSK. Our Werner Helicase inhibitor DC is targeting the helicase domain of the Werner, or WRN, protein, for patients having tumors with high microsatellite instability, or MSI. We are, in collaboration with GSK, targeting an IND submission in 2024 to enable first-in-human clinical evaluation of our Werner Helicase inhibitor DC in MSI-High tumors.

We have multiple wholly owned preclinical-stage programs on undisclosed targets to enable the next wave of precision medicine therapeutics in our pipeline. These preclinical programs are focused on opportunities that we believe are potentially first-in-class or best-in-class. We are targeting to submit an IND for one or more of these preclinical programs in 2025.

We have established a robust precision medicine research platform with capabilities for identification and validation of new targets and biomarkers, drug discovery and translational biology. Our approach integrates small molecule drug discovery with extensive capabilities in identifying and validating translational biomarkers to develop targeted therapies for select patient populations that are most likely to benefit from them. Our small molecule drug discovery expertise includes discovery and development of small molecule therapeutics. Our drug discovery platform includes our proprietary chemical library, INQUIRE, structure-based drug design enabled by extensive structural biology and crystallography capabilities, and our proprietary content-based machine-learning engine, HARMONY, providing effective and efficient molecular design and structure-activity-relationship cycles. We have deep research and development expertise in synthetic lethality, which represents an emerging class of precision medicine targets. We are applying these capabilities to develop a robust pipeline in precision medicine oncology.

Darovasertib—PKC Inhibitor Clinical Candidate Overview

Darovasertib is our most advanced clinical-stage product candidate. Darovasertib is a potent, selective small molecule inhibitor of PKC that we are developing for genetically-defined cancers having GNAQ or GNA11 gene mutations. PKC is a protein kinase that functions downstream of the GTPases GNAQ and GNA11.

We are pursuing a clinical strategy for darovasertib to broadly address UM, alternatively referred to as ocular melanoma, as both primary and metastatic disease. Greater than 90% of UM patients have tumors harboring GNAQ or GNA11 mutations. There are no FDA approved systemic therapies for primary UM, as either neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapies. There are likewise no FDA approved therapies for patients having MUM with HLA-A2(-) serotype. These primary UM patients and HLA-A2(-) MUM patients collectively represent approximately 85% of all ocular melanoma patients. We have a separate, independent clinical strategy to address HLA-A2(+) MUM patients.

The potentially addressable patient population for MUM is estimated to include an annual incidence of approximately 4,500 patients across the United States and Europe, with an estimated total prevalence of approximately 100,000 patients in the United States and Europe. (Neo)Adjuvant UM represents a significant expansion opportunity for darovasertib with a potential annual incidence of approximately 8,700 patients across the United States and Europe and with an estimated total prevalence of approximately 14,000 patients in the United States and Europe. We own or control all commercial rights in our darovasertib program in UM, including in MUM and in primary UM, subject to certain economic obligations pursuant to our exclusive, worldwide license to darovasertib with Novartis.

Darovasertib—Potential Registration-Enabling Clinical Trial in First-Line HLA-A2(-) MUM

We have initiated and are recruiting patients for enrollment into open clinical sites in our potentially registration-enabling Phase 2/3 clinical trial, designated as IDE196-002, to evaluate darovasertib and crizotinib as a combination therapy in HLA-A2(-) MUM. We are the sponsor of this registrational Phase 2/3 clinical trial and are also collaborating with Pfizer for supply of crizotinib on this Phase 2/3 registrational trial, pursuant to our Clinical Trial Collaboration and Supply Agreement with Pfizer, or Second Pfizer Agreement.

The protocol of the Phase 2/3 clinical trial design incorporates guidance and feedback following our Type C meeting with the FDA in March 2023. This protocol includes an integrated Phase 2/3 open-label study-in-study

design in first-line MUM patients with an HLA-A2(-) serotype. The clinical trial design employs a Phase 2 portion with median PFS as a primary endpoint for potential accelerated approval. Patients enrolled in Phase 2 will continue on treatment within the same study and will be considered, together with additional enrolled patients, to evaluate overall survival, or OS, as the primary endpoint of the Phase 3 portion of the clinical trial to support a potential confirmational approval.

In the Phase 2 portion of the clinical trial, approximately 230 patients will be randomized on a 2:1 basis for treatment with the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in the treatment arm or investigators choice in the control arm, selected from (a) a combination of ipilimumab and nivolumab, (b) PD1-targeted monotherapy, or (c) dacarbazine. The treatment arm of the Phase 2 portion of the clinical trial includes a nested study to confirm the move forward combination dose for the integrated Phase 2/3 clinical trial, including cohorts at the Phase 2 expansion doses of (i) darovasertib 300 mg BID + crizotinib 200 mg BID and (ii) darovasertib 200 mg BID + crizotinib 200 mg BID. Under the nested study design, patients enrolled in the cohort at the move forward dose will be included within the Phase 2/3 registrational clinical trial. The Phase 2 portion of the clinical trial contemplates an efficacy and safety data set of approximately 200 patients randomized 2:1 with the treatment arm at the move forward dose to support a potential accelerated approval based on median PFS by blinded independent central review, or BICR, as a primary endpoint. Accelerated approval is intended to allow for earlier approval of drugs that treat serious conditions and fill an unmet medical need based on a demonstration of effectiveness on a surrogate endpoint.

Patients enrolled in Phase 2 at the selected dose would continue on treatment and be included in the Phase 3 study analysis, supplemented by enrollment of approximately 120 additional patients into the Phase 3 portion of the clinical trial, with 2:1 randomization on the same basis as the Phase 2 portion. Efficacy data from the Phase 3 could support potential approval using median OS as a primary endpoint.

On May 12, 2023, we expanded our relationship with Pfizer to support the Phase 2/3 registrational trial to evaluate darovasertib and crizotinib as a combination therapy in MUM by entering into Amendment No. 1 to the Second Pfizer Agreement. Under the as-amended Second Pfizer Agreement, Pfizer will provide us with a first defined quantity of crizotinib at no cost, as well as an additional second defined quantity of crizotinib at a lump-sum cost. We anticipate that the supply of crizotinib under the Second Pfizer Agreement, as amended, will be sufficient to support the planned Phase 2 and Phase 3 portions of the Phase 2/3 registrational clinical trial.

In parallel, we are continuing to evaluate darovasertib in our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial, designated as IDE196-001, as a combination therapy with crizotinib in MUM. We are the sponsor of this Phase 2 clinical trial, and are collaborating with Pfizer on this Phase 2 clinical trial pursuant to our Clinical Trial Collaboration and Supply Agreement.

In April 2023, we reported clinical data, including a safety and clinical efficacy profile, from the Phase 2 expansion cohort evaluating the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in MUM. In October 2023, we also reported darovasertib clinical ctDNA data and HLA-A2(-)/(+) data subsets from this Phase 2 clinical trial, as well as HLA-A2(-)/(+) prevalence based on our broader clinical experience in MUM, at ESMO 2023.

These reported Phase 2 clinical data were based on twenty (20) evaluable first-line and sixty-three (63) evaluable any-line patients enrolled as of September 22, 2022 in the darovasertib and crizotinib combination study at the expansion dose of 300 mg twice-a-day darovasertib and 200 mg twice-a-day crizotinib. Reported data were preliminary and based on investigator review from an unlocked database as of the data cutoff date of August 22, 2023.

Table of Contents

The evaluable patients generally had a significant disease burden and the evaluable any-line patients were heavily pre-treated. Key parameters for characterizing disease burden include baseline lactate dehydrogenase, or LDH, size of the largest metastatic lesion and degree of multi-site metastases. These evaluable patients had baseline LDH that was greater than the upper limit of normal in 60% of any-line and 50% of first-line patients. The largest metastatic lesion was greater than 3.0 cm in 65% of any-line and 60% of first-line patients, and greater than 8.0 cm in 10% of any-line and 15% of first-line patients. The patient metastases included both hepatic and extrahepatic loci in 64% of any-line and 50% of first-line patients. Among any-line patients, 68% had received one or more prior lines of therapy and 43% had received two or more prior lines of therapy.

In the twenty (20) evaluable first-line MUM patients in the expansion cohort, the investigator-reviewed data by RECIST 1.1 included: (i) 45% Overall Response Rate, or ORR, in first-line MUM (nine of 20 evaluable patients had a confirmed PR); (ii) 90% Disease Control Rate, or DCR, in first-line MUM (18 of 20 evaluable patients showed disease control, including nine confirmed PRs and nine stable disease); and (iii) approximately seven months median Progression Free Survival, or PFS, in first-line MUM.

In the sixty-three (63) evaluable any-line MUM patients at the expansion dose, the investigator-reviewed data by RECIST 1.1 included: (i) 30% ORR in any-line MUM (19 of 63 evaluable patients had a confirmed PR); (ii) 89% DCR in any-line MUM (56 of 63 evaluable patients showed disease control, including 19 confirmed PRs and 37 stable disease); and (iii) approximately seven months median PFS in any-line MUM. Notably, the observed median PFS was enhanced from the median PFS of approximately five months as previously reported in September 2022 based on 35 evaluable any-line MUM patients.

There was a subset of 19 evaluable hepatic-only MUM patients, including first-line and pre-treated patients with only hepatic metastases, for whom the investigator-reviewed data by RECIST 1.1 included: (i) 37% ORR in hepatic-only MUM (7 of 19 evaluable patients had a confirmed PR); (ii) 100% DCR in hepatic-only MUM (19 of 19 evaluable patients showed disease control, including seven confirmed PRs and 12 stable disease); and (iii) approximately 11 months median PFS in hepatic-only MUM.

Treatment durations as of the August 22, 2023 data analyses cutoff date were observed for the any-line (n=63) patients: approximately 50% of patients were treated for greater than six months and approximately 30% of patients were treated for greater than one year, and multiple patients with confirmed PRs by RECIST 1.1 have been on treatment greater than 24 months, with the potential for further enhancement on the duration of treatment analysis as approximately 20% (13 out of 63 evaluable patients) of any-line MUM patients are continuing on treatment.

Based on the two-year PFS Kaplan -Meier curve of the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in any-line MUM, the combination provides a promising PFS trend compared to other therapies, including tebentafusp. The observed tail of the PFS curve implies durable benefit in a significant proportion of patients who remain progression free as far out as two years.

ctDNA molecular responses reported at ESMO 2023 were determined based on measured changes in mean allele frequency (MAF) on-treatment as compared to MAF levels at baseline for a subset of any-line MUM patients (n=32). Patients whose ctDNA showed a reduction of greater than 50% MAF following treatment were characterized as having a ctDNA molecular response.

A reduction in MAF was observed in all but one patient. Significantly, ctDNA molecular responses were observed in 30 of 32 evaluable patients, reflecting a molecular response rate of 94%. The determined ctDNA molecular responses were deep and sustained, with approximately 80% of measured patients having >80% reduction in MAF. The ctDNA molecular responses correlated with observed efficacy, including confirmed PRs as determined by RECIST 1.1.

Clinical efficacy was observed in both HLA-A2(-) and HLA-A2(+) patients. There were 50 all-line MUM patients with known HLA-A2 status among the 63 patients evaluable for efficacy, with 31 of these being HLA-A2(-) and 19 being HLA-A2(+). The reported efficacy data by HLA-A2 serotype was based on a preliminary analysis of an unlocked database as of August 22, 2023 by investigator review and RECIST 1.1. For HLA-A2(-) MUM patients, confirmed PRs were observed in nine of 31 (29% ORR) any-line and in five of 12 (42% ORR) first-line patients. For HLA-A2(+) MUM patients, confirmed PRs were also observed in six of 19 (32% ORR) any-line and in three of five (60% ORR) first-line patients.

As reported in April 2023, the darovasertib and crizotinib combination therapy continued to observe a manageable safety profile in MUM patients (n=68) at the combination expansion doses, with a low rate (10%) of drug-related serious adverse events (SAEs). Patients reported predominantly Grade 1 or 2 drug-related adverse events, or AEs: 31% of patients reported at least one Grade 3 drug-related AE; no patients observed a Grade 4 drug-related AE; and one patient observed a Grade 5 AE. The reported Grade 5 SAE was, we believe, not likely related to study therapies and most likely due to disease progression. The treating investigator assessed the Grade 5 SAE as being of unknown cause, most likely related to disease progression, and possibly related to the study therapies. Principal investigators on the study reviewed the Grade 5 SAE and concluded that the event was most likely due to disease progression. As the sponsor of the clinical trial, we likewise concluded the Grade 5 SAE was most likely due to disease progression and not likely related to study therapies. Drug-related adverse events observed in the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in MUM patients as related to darovasertib as of August 22, 2023 primarily include: SAEs of diarrhea, vomiting, sepsis, respiratory failure, syncope, hypotension and toxic epidermal necrolysis; and AEs, that occurred in greater than 20% of patients, of diarrhea, nausea, edema peripheral, vomiting, dermatitis acneiform, fatigue, hypotension, hypoalbuminaemia, dizziness and decreased appetite. Five patients (7%) permanently discontinued treatment with darovasertib and crizotinib due to a drug-related adverse event.

We consider that these data demonstrate robust clinical efficacy of the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in first-line and any-line MUM patients, with a manageable safety profile, and that collectively, these data support the potential registration-enabling Phase 2/3 clinical trial to evaluate darovasertib and crizotinib as a combination therapy in MUM.

Prevalence of HLA-A2*02:01 Negative Serotype in MUM

Data from darovasertib clinical trials in MUM demonstrate that approximately 70% of MUM patients in the Phase 2 clinical trial with known HLA-A2 status were HLA-A2(-). As reported at ESMO 2023, the HLA-A2 status was known in subsets of patients enrolled in clinical trials evaluating darovasertib. Prevalence of HLA-A2(+) and HLA-A2(-) in MUM patients was determined from a first data set of 149 MUM patients treated with darovasertib as monotherapy or in a combination arm of the clinical trial, and separately in a second data set of 118 MUM patients treated with the darovasertib and crizotinib combination. These data include 102 of 149 (68%) patients in the all-treatment subset and 81 of 118 (69%) patients in the darovasertib and crizotinib combination treatment subset.

Darovasertib—Strategy for HLA-A2*02:01 Positive MUM

Based on clinical data from the Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating darovasertib and crizotinib in MUM as reported at ESMO 2023, and based on the darovasertib mechanism of action, we anticipate darovasertib may have clinical activity independent of HLA status in GNAQ/11-mutation cancers.

Accordingly, we are planning a clinical strategy to separately address MUM patients with an HLA-A2(+) serotype. In one approach, we are planning to enroll additional HLA-A2(+) patients in a separate clinical trial in MUM patients. Such clinical trial data from darovasertib and crizotinib combination treatment in HLA-A2(+) MUM could support publication and potential inclusion in NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology.

Darovasertib Orphan Drug Designation in UM and Fast Track Designation in MUM

In April 2022, the FDA designated darovasertib as an Orphan Drug in UM, including primary and metastatic disease under 21 C.F.R. Part 316. Under an Orphan Drug designation, darovasertib may be entitled to certain tax credits for qualifying clinical trial expenses, exemption from certain user fees and, subject to FDA approval of a New Drug Application, or NDA, for darovasertib in UM, seven years of statutory marketing exclusivity. As an FDA-designated Orphan Drug, darovasertib may also be excluded from certain mandatory price negotiation provisions of the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act.

In November 2022, the FDA granted Fast Track designation to IDEAYA’s development program investigating darovasertib in combination with crizotinib in adult patients being treated for MUM. The Fast Track designation makes our darovasertib and crizotinib development program eligible for various expedited regulatory review processes, including generally more frequent FDA interactions, such as meetings and written communications, potential eligibility for rolling review of a future NDA and potential accelerated approval and priority review of an NDA.

Darovasertib—Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Therapy in UM

We are clinically evaluating the potential for darovasertib as neoadjuvantor adjuvant therapy, or both, also referred to as (neo)adjuvant therapy, in primary, non-metastatic UM patients. In April 2023, June 2023 and October 2023, we reported preliminary clinical data in the neoadjuvant setting showing evidence of anti-tumor activity that we believe supports further clinical evaluation of darovasertib to determine its potential as a neoadjuvant therapy to either save the eye by avoiding enucleation, or to reduce the tumor thickness in the eye, enabling treatment with less radiation to preserve vision, and as an adjuvant therapy, to potentially extend relapse free survival.

We have initiated and dosed our first patient in a company-sponsored Phase 2 clinical trial designated as IDE196-009. The purpose of the trial is to evaluate single-agent darovasertib as neoadjuvant treatment of primary UM prior to primary interventional treatment of enucleation or radiation therapy and also as adjuvant therapy following the primary treatment.

The IDE196-009 clinical protocol includes neoadjuvant treatment with darovasertib to maximum benefit or up to six months, primary treatment, then up to six months of follow-up adjuvant therapy.

In the neoadjuvant setting, one cohort of UM patients with large tumors will be treated with darovasertib until maximum benefit or six months, at which time they will undergo a primary interventional treatment. The neoadjuvant endpoint for this large-sized tumor cohort is eye preservation. For example, a patient who would otherwise have undergone enucleation would instead be eligible for radiation treatment. Another neoadjuvant cohort of UM patients with small or medium tumors will be treated with darovasertib until maximum benefit or six months, at which time they will undergo radiation therapy. Neoadjuvant endpoints for this small- or medium-sized tumor cohort include (i) reducing the radiation dose that the patient receives, relative to the radiation dose they would have otherwise received without the neoadjuvant treatment, and (ii) functional vision preservation.

Table of Contents

In the adjuvant setting, each of the two neoadjuvant cohorts will be treated with darovasertib for up to six months as follow-up adjuvant therapy after the primary interventional treatment. The adjuvant endpoints for this portion of the clinical trial include relapse free survival and useful vision.

As of October 23, 2023, six patients have enrolled in the trial, including four enucleation patients and two plaque-therapy patients.

We are additionally supporting evaluation of darovasertib as (neo)adjuvant therapy in primary UM in the ongoing NADOM IST. Pursuant to an as-amended protocol for the NADOM study, UM patients who would otherwise undergo enucleation are instead treated with single agent darovasertib as neoadjuvant treatment for up to six months or maximum benefit. This reflects an increase in potential treatment duration versus the initial approach of one month neoadjuvant therapy, following which these patients will undergo a primary interventional treatment. Patients will subsequently be treated with darovasertib for up to six months as follow-up adjuvant therapy after the primary interventional treatment.

In October 2023, we reported clinical data demonstrating clinical activity for darovasertib as neoadjuvant therapy in primary UM, including tumor shrinkage in ocular tumor lesions. In the preliminary interim update with an enrollment cut-off as of July 17, 2023, seven patients were treated to maximal response in the neo-adjuvant setting (up to six months of darovasertib monotherapy in patients who were enrolled with planned enucleation); two patients have confirmed Eye Saved, which we define as conversion from planned enucleation to plaque brachytherapy) with a third patient confirmed as plaque eligible and who is receiving darovasertib neo-adjuvant treatment until maximal benefit; providing 50% overall eye preservation rate for the evaluable patients. Of the evaluable patients (6 of 7) treated to maximal benefit, defined as at least one ultrasound scan, approximately 83% of patients had tumor shrinkage. Two patients did not complete their treatment to maximal response; one patient had sub-retinal blood present at baseline and with lack of shrinkage and visual deterioration, the patient discontinued treatment after six weeks. A non-evaluable second patient had a Grade 3 drug-related AE of dermatitis and discontinued treatment before their first scan. Two out of four additional patients after the enrollment cutoff date of July 17, 2023 are likely plaque eligible and are continuing darovasertib neoadjuvant therapy until maximal benefit with one patient being enucleated. In total, 11 patients eligible to receive six months of neoadjuvant therapy are enrolled as of October 23, 2023 in the neoadjuvant UM enucleation cohort of the NADOM IST.

In April 2023, we reported on a compassionate use case for a primary UM patient who was already blind in one eye from vascular disease and developed a large UM lesion in his other eye, which also had an associated cataract. The patient sought neoadjuvant treatment with the darovasertib and crizotinib combination under a compassionate use protocol with a goal to avoid enucleation and potentially preserve vision in the affected eye. The preliminary clinical data showed prompt responsiveness to treatment, including observed progressive tumor shrinkage over each prior month of treatment. Namely, the patient experienced approximately 30% of tumor shrinkage after one month that continued up to approximately 80% after four months of treatment, in each case as determined by investigator measurement of apical height. After one month, the ocular lesion size was sufficiently reduced to approach the threshold for radiation therapy (i.e., plaque brachytherapy). The patient thus avoided enucleation of the eye with UM, which reflects an initial reported case of systemic neoadjuvant therapy resulting in eye preservation by avoiding enucleation. Additionally, the patient has restored normal vision of the eye following the course of neoadjuvant treatment and treatment of the associated cataract, with a reported post-treatment vision score of 6/5 (measurement in meters: 6/6 meters = 20/20 feet), reflecting a greater than 20 fold improvement in vision.

We believe that these clinical observations provide a basis for further clinical investigation to evaluate whether darovasertib can improve current primary treatment paradigms, which typically include radiotherapies or

enucleation of the eye as primary interventional treatments. Our regulatory strategy includes evaluation of potential clinical endpoints such as vision and organ preservation, which would be temporally proximal to the primary interventional treatments, potentially enabling a discussion with regulatory authorities on an accelerated approval pathway.

Darovasertib—Expansion Opportunity in Skin Melanoma

We have initiated a Phase 2 expansion of the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in GNAQ/11 metastatic cutaneous melanoma, also referred to as skin melanoma, based on the observed preliminary clinical efficacy. In the darovasertib monotherapy cutaneous melanoma cohort (n=8), five of seven evaluable patients had tumor shrinkage (approximately 71%) with one patient having a PR and remaining on treatment over 10 months after previously receiving multiple lines of immunotherapy. In the darovasertib plus binimetinib cutaneous melanoma cohort (n=2), one of two cutaneous melanoma patients with a PR demonstrated 50% tumor shrinkage and remained on treatment approximately 600 days after previously receiving multiple lines of immunotherapy. In the darovasertib plus crizotinib cutaneous melanoma cohort (n=2), one of two cutaneous melanoma patients had tumor shrinkage of 60% with one patient having a PR and remaining on treatment approximately 600 days after previously receiving multiple lines of immunotherapy.

Darovasertib, as monotherapy or in combination with either binimetinib or crizotinib, has indicated a manageable safety profile in cutaneous melanoma patients with certain drug-related AEs being reported in all cohorts. These preliminary clinical data support initiation of a Phase 2 expansion of the darovasertib and crizotinib combination in GNAQ/11 metastatic cutaneous melanoma to advance the darovasertib and crizotinib combination. There are currently no FDA approved therapies in this indication in this genetically-defined patient population.

The GNAQ/11 prevalence in cutaneous melanoma has been reported at approximately 5% in The Cancer Genome Atlas. The GNAQ/11 cutaneous melanoma estimated annual incidence is approximately 5,000 patients in the United States and 8,000 patients in the EU28, and the estimated total prevalence of GNAQ/11 cutaneous melanoma is approximately 70,000 patients in the United States and 110,000 patients in the EU28. It has been reported that approximately 12.5% to 15% of cutaneous melanoma patients have been reported to develop metastatic disease, whereas in UM, a predominantly GNAQ/11 mediated cancer, the metastatic rate has been reported at approximately 50%. In addition, based on several metastatic cancer patient databases, including Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) Impact, we project GNAQ/11 metastatic cutaneous melanoma has the potential to double or more the annual addressable metastatic patient population of MUM alone. In addition, GNAQ/11 mutation patients are known to have a low tumor mutational burden making these patients less likely to benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies.

IDE397—MAT2A Inhibitor in Tumors with MTAP Deletion

IDE397 is a clinical-stage, potent, selective small molecule inhibitor of MAT2A, which we are developing for patients having solid tumors with MTAP deletion. The prevalence of MTAP deletion is estimated to be approximately 15% of human solid tumors. MTAP deletion in patient tumors is identified by commercial or institutional next generation sequencing, or NGS, panels or by MTAP immunohistochemistry assay with confirmation by NGS.

MTAP-null cells lack the ability to metabolize 5-methylthioadenosine, or MTA, which is an essential step in a biochemical pathway involved in salvaging the metabolite S-adenosyl methionine, or SAM. Increased levels of MTA partially inhibit the methyltransferase PRMT5 for which SAM is the methyl-donor substrate for methylation of various proteins. This partial inhibition of PRMT5 by increased levels of MTA renders MTAP-null cells more

dependent on the activity of MAT2A, an enzyme that is responsible for the synthesis of SAM. Because of this enhanced dependence, loss of MTAP results in synthetic lethality when MAT2A is pharmacologically inhibited.

We are enrolling patients into a Phase 2 clinical trial designated as IDE397-001 to evaluate IDE397 for patients having certain tumors with MTAP gene deletion.

We are proceeding with enrollment of MTAP-deletion patients into a monotherapy Phase 2 expansion cohort with an initial focus on high priority solid tumor types, including squamous NSCLC and bladder cancer. There have been eight patients dosed in the Phase 2 expansion in the high priority solid tumor types of squamous NSCLC and bladder cancer, of which two patients have not yet had a first tumor scan assessment. The PRs include an earlier reported 33% tumor shrinkage by CT-PET (without contrast) for a squamous NSCLC patient, and a confirmed PR (47% tumor shrinkage) by RECIST 1.1 with IDE397 in a previously undisclosed tumor type (bladder cancer). This bladder cancer patient has converted to a complete response by RECIST 1.1 at the week 18 CT-scan. In addition, of patients evaluable for ctDNA pre and post treatment, a ctDNA molecular response rate of 83% was observed in these MTAP-deletion priority tumor types. As of the October 13, 2023 cut-off date, we have observed low rates of drug-related discontinuations and SAEs in the dose escalation and expansion phases. Patients reported predominantly Grade 1 or 2 drug-related AEs: nine patients reported at least one Grade 3 drug-related AE; no patients observed a Grade 4 drug-related AE or Grade 5 drug-related AE.

We are collaborating with Amgen to clinically evaluate IDE397 in combination with AMG 193 in patients having tumors with MTAP deletion, in the Amgen-sponsored IDE397/AMG 193 combination study pursuant to our Clinical Trial Collaboration and Supply Agreement with Amgen, or the Amgen CTCSA.

The combination of IDE397 with AMG 193 is a novel and potential first-in-class synthetic lethality combination that targets two distinct and mechanistically complementary nodes of the MTAP methylation pathway—MAT2A and PRMT5, providing a complementary approach for targeting MTAP-null tumors.

In August 2023, Amgen initiated and has dosed a first patient in the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study, following clearance of the Amgen-sponsored IND and FDA authorization to proceed with the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study. The IDE397/AMG 193 combination study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, or PD, and efficacy of IDE397 in combination with AMG 193, with an initial focus for expansion in NSCLC patients and an estimated enrollment of approximately 180 patients.

We entered into the Amgen CTCSA in July 2022 to clinically evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, PD and efficacy of IDE397 in combination with AMG 193, in patients having MTAP-deletion solid tumors, in the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study. Pursuant to the mutually non-exclusive Amgen CTCSA, Amgen is the sponsor of the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study and will provide AMG 193, we will provide IDE397 and each party will pay for 50% of the external third-party costs of the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study. Each party will be responsible for its own internal costs and expenses in support of the IDE397/AMG 193 combination study. We and Amgen will jointly own clinical data and all intellectual property, if any, relating to the combined use of IDE397 and AMG 193. Each party retains commercial rights to its respective compounds, including with respect to use as a monotherapy or combination agent. We have formed a joint oversight committee responsible for coordinating all regulatory and other activities under the Amgen CTCSA.

In April 2023, we co-presented preclinical efficacy data with Amgen at AACR 2023 for the IDE397 and AMG 193 combination in an NSCLC MTAP-null cell-derived xenograft, or CDX, model. As reflected in these published

xenograft data, we observed complete responses following approximately 30 days of combination treatment, starting at study-day seven through study-day 39, at doses below the maximally efficacious preclinical dose for each of IDE397, such as 1/10th of maximally efficacious dose, and AMG 193. The complete responses were

Table of Contents

durable from approximately study-day 40 to study-day 100. The IDE397 and AMG 193 combination was well tolerated, with no observed body weight loss through the approximate 30 days of combination treatment.

We also presented preclinical efficacy data showing deep and durable anti-tumor efficacy and PD responses for IDE397 in combination with representative MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitors in NSCLC MTAP-null CDX models, and for one representative compound, also in a pancreatic MTAP-null CDX model.

In addition, we presented further supporting preclinical data at AACR 2023, including the results of gene expression analysis of hallmark pathways, alternative splicing analysis and retained intron analysis. These data collectively demonstrate that combined pharmacological inhibition of MAT2A and PRMT5 deepens the biological response through maximal pathway suppression. The enhanced combination effect was observed selectively in MTAP-null relative to MTAP wild-type models.

We believe that the preclinical efficacy data, considered together with the biological mechanistic response data, as presented at AACR 2023, supports our plans to clinically evaluate IDE397 in combination with AMG 193.

We own all right, title and interest in and to IDE397 and the MAT2A program, including all worldwide commercial rights thereto.

IDE161—PARG Inhibitor in Tumors with Homologous Recombination Deficiency

IDE161 is a small molecule inhibitor of PARG being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial, designated as IDE161-001, for patients having tumors with HRD and potentially other genetic or molecular signatures.

PARG is a novel target in a clinically validated biological pathway. PARG functions as a regulator of DNA repair in the same biochemical pathway as PARP. PARG hydrolyzes poly (ADP-ribose), or PAR, chains that are polymerized by PARP enzymes, completing the PAR cycle. Small molecule inhibitors of PARG result in a dose dependent increase in cellular PAR after DNA damage. PARG is a mechanistically distinct target relative to PARP.

We are progressing with enrollment of patients having tumors with HRD into the Phase 1 expansion portion of the Phase 1/2 clinical trial in selected priority tumors. In parallel, we are also continuing with Phase 1 dose optimization to confirm a move-forward expansion dose for the planned Phase 2 portion of the clinical trial.

The expansion portion of the Phase 1 trial will include patients having HRD-associated breast cancer and ovarian cancer, as well as a basket of other selected solid tumors. The breast cancer focus is on ER+, Her2- and HRD+ tumors, which together represent approximately 10% to 14% of breast cancer patients. The ovarian cancer focus represents approximately 50% of ovarian cancer where HRD is observed. Selected other solid tumors with HRD, such as HRD+ endometrial cancer, will also be evaluated in the Phase 1 expansion portion of the clinical trial.

In connection with the Phase 1 expansion announced in September 2023, we disclosed preliminary clinical proof-of-concept for IDE161 in HRD solid tumors based on early clinical data from the dose escalation cohorts. These clinical data showed dose-dependent PD modulation of PAR proteins in peripheral blood, demonstrating IDE161 target engagement. These clinical data also demonstrated IDE161 exposure levels in humans which correlate to preclinical exposures that were efficacious in achieving tumor regressions in xenograft models.

We have observed multiple PRs by RECIST 1.1 and tumor shrinkage in priority solid tumor types early in the Phase 1 dose escalation and at the expansion dose. As of October 13, 2023, there have been a total of seven

patients treated at the expansion dose, of which two patients have not yet had a first scan tumor assessment. We observed preliminary tumor shrinkage in multiple HRD solid tumor patients, including an BRCA1/2 endometrial cancer subject with a confirmed PR in the target lesion as of the second imaging assessment, a complete response in the non-target lesion and an 87% reduction in the CA-125 tumor marker (2,722 units/ml at baseline to 360 units/ml at six-weeks). At the IDE161 expansion dose, we have observed no drug-related discontinuations or SAEs as of the October 13, 2023 cut-off date.

In September 2023, we received a Fast Track designation from the FDA for IDE161 for ovarian cancer and breast cancer indications. Fast Track is a FDA process designed to facilitate the development and expedite the review of drugs to treat serious conditions and fill an unmet medical need. Specifically, for IDE161, a Fast Track designation was received for the treatment of adult patients having advanced or metastatic ovarian cancer with germline or somatic BRCA 1/2 mutations who are platinum resistant and have received prior antiangiogenic and PARP inhibitor therapies. The Fast Track designation was also received for IDE161 for the treatment of adult patients having advanced or metastatic HR+ and Her2- breast cancer with germline or somatic BRCA 1/2 mutations who have progressed following treatment with at least one line of a hormonal therapy, a CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy and a PARP inhibitor therapy.

Under the Fast Track designation, the IDE161 development program in BRCA1/2 mutant breast and ovarian cancers, as specified in the Fast Track designation, is eligible for various expedited regulatory review processes, including generally more frequent FDA interactions (e.g., meetings, written communications), potential eligibility for rolling review of an NDA and potential accelerated approval and priority review of an NDA.

We entered into an exclusive license with Cancer Research Technologies Ltd., also known as Cancer Research United Kingdom, or CRT, and the University of Manchester, under an Evaluation, Option and License Agreement. Pursuant to the license, we hold exclusive worldwide license rights covering a broad class of PARG inhibitors.

In April 2023, we incurred an obligation to pay milestone payments in an aggregate amount of £750,000 to CRT based upon the achievement of certain milestones relating to first and second tumor histologies in connection with the Phase 1 portion of the IDE161-001 Phase 1/2 clinical trial in oncologic diseases. We will be obligated to make additional payments to CRT of up to £18.75 million in aggregate upon the achievement of specific development and regulatory approval events for development of a PARG inhibitor in oncologic diseases, including an aggregate of up to £1.5 million and up to £2.25 for the achievement of certain Phase 2 and Phase 3 development milestones, respectively, in each case as relating to first and second tumor histologies.

We own or control all commercial rights in our PARG program, subject to certain economic obligations pursuant to our exclusive, worldwide license to certain PARG inhibitors, including IDE161, with CRT and the University of Manchester.

GSK101 (IDE705)—Pol Theta Helicase Inhibitor in Tumors with Homologous Recombination Deficiency

We discovered GSK101 (IDE705), our Pol Theta Helicase inhibitor clinical development candidate, and evaluated GSK101 in preclinical studies in collaboration with GSK. GSK101 targets the helicase domain of the Pol Theta protein for patients having solid tumors with BRCA or other mutations associated with HRD.

Pol Theta is involved in a DNA repair process called microhomology mediated end joining that is utilized when homologous recombination mediated repair is compromised, as happens in the case of certain BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. The expression of Pol Theta is largely absent in normal cells, but tumor cells harboring double strand break repair defects, such as BRCA1 or BRCA2, show higher Pol Theta expression and synthetic lethality

 

S-14

when Pol Theta is knocked down with siRNA. Pol Theta is a large protein with two functional domains: a DNA polymerase domain and an ATP-dependent DNA helicase domain, sometimes referred to as an ATPase domain, linked by a RAD51 binding domain.

An IND for GSK101 was submitted and has been cleared by the FDA to enable clinical evaluation of GSK101 in combination with niraparib, the GSK small molecule inhibitor of PARP for patients having tumors with HR mutations, such as BRCA mutations, or HRD.

GSK is targeting initiation of first-in-human studies in the fourth quarter of 2023. GSK is leading clinical development of GSK101 pursuant to our Collaboration, Option and License Agreement with GSK, or the GSK Collaboration Agreement. GSK is responsible for all research and development costs for the Pol Theta program.

We have the potential to receive an additional $10.0 million milestone payment upon initiation of Phase 1 clinical dose expansion. In August 2023, we achieved a $7.0 million milestone payment based on acceptance of the IND by the FDA and received the payment in October 2023. In August 2022, we achieved an earlier preclinical development milestone in connection with ongoing IND-enabling studies to support evaluation of GSK101 and received a $3.0 million milestone payment from GSK as a result.

WRN Inhibitors in Tumors with High Microsatellite Instability

We are advancing our preclinical IND-enabling studies and other preclinical research in collaboration with GSK for an inhibitor targeting Werner Helicase for patients having tumors with high MSI.

WRN protein is a RecQ enzyme involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. Germline loss of function mutations in WRN lead to premature aging and pre-disposition to cancer. MSI is a change in the DNA content of a tumor cell in which the number of repeats of microsatellites, short repeated sequences of DNA, differ as cells divide. High MSI is present in about 15% of gastrointestinal tumor cancers, including in approximately 22% of stomach adenocarcinoma and 16% of colorectal cancer. Tumors with high MSI are routinely assessed in multiple diagnostic profiling tests.

WRN is a protein having several functional domains, and we have shown that the helicase functional domain of WRN is responsible for this synthetic lethal interaction, as reflected in our publication in Cell Press—iScience, Werner Syndrome Helicase is Required for the Survival of Cancer Cells with Microsatellite Instability (March 2019).

We have demonstrated in vivo efficacy with tumor regression and PD response in a relevant MSI high model. We have observed selectivity of our Werner Helicase inhibitor DC and validation of the synthetic lethal relationship to tumors with high MSI over tumors with microsatellite stable, or MSS, based on a lack of in vivo pharmacological response in relevant MSS xenograft models.

We selected our Werner Helicase inhibitor DC in collaboration with GSK. Subject to successful completion of ongoing IND-enabling studies, we are targeting an IND in 2024 to enable first-in-human clinical evaluation of Werner Helicase inhibitor DC for patients having tumors with MSI-High.

We are collaborating with GSK on the ongoing IND-enabling studies and, subject to IND submission and clearance, GSK will lead clinical development for the Werner Helicase program. GSK is responsible for 80% of global research and development costs and IDEAYA is responsible for 20% of such costs. GSK holds a global, exclusive license to develop and commercialize the Werner Helicase inhibitor DC.

We earned a $3 million milestone from GSK in connection with IND-enabling studies and have the potential to earn up to an additional $17 million in aggregate milestone payments through early Phase 1 clinical studies.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We are an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (1) December 31, 2024, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, (3) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700.0 million as of the last business day of the second fiscal quarter of such year or (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. As an emerging growth company:

 

 

We will avail ourselves of the exemption from the requirement to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

 

We will provide less extensive disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and

 

 

We will not require stockholder non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus is a part and the documents incorporated herein by reference and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

Pre-funded warrants offered by us in this offering

We are also offering, in lieu of shares of our common stock to certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase 319,150 shares of our common stock. The purchase price of each pre-funded warrant is the price per share at which the shares of our common stock are being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001, which is the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant. Each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable from the date of issuance until fully exercised, subject to an ownership limitation. See “Description of Pre-Funded Warrants.” This prospectus supplement also relates to the offering of the shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of such pre-funded warrants.

 

Option to purchase additional shares of common stock

The underwriters have an option to purchase up to 797,872 additional      shares of common stock from us at the public offering price. The underwriters can exercise this option at any time within 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement.

 

Common stock to be outstanding after this offering

Use of proceeds

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from this offering will be approximately $117.0 million, or approximately $134.7 million if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We currently intend to use our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities together with the net proceeds from this offering to fund (i) ongoing clinical development of darovasertib and crizotinib, as combination therapy in MUM, including our Phase 2/3 potential registrational clinical trial, as well as our Phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate darovasertib as neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in primary uveal melanoma and our Phase 2 expansion of darovasertib and crizotinib combination in metastatic cutaneous melanoma, (ii) preparation for potential commercial launch of darovasertib for MUM, subject to FDA approval, including enhancing capabilities for a U.S. commercial launch, support for a European commercial launch and building initial general and administrative commercial operations, (iii) ongoing clinical development of IDE397 in Phase 1/2 clinical trial as monotherapy in patients having tumors with MTAP-deletion in NSCLC, bladder cancer and other solid tumors, and our share of costs for evaluation of IDE397 in collaboration with Amgen, in combination with AMG 193, (iv) ongoing clinical development of IDE161 targeting PARG in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial for patients having HRD,

Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock or pre-funded warrants involves risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our common stock or pre-funded warrants, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described below. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, which is on file with the SEC and is incorporated herein by reference, and which may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, business prospects, financial condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section below titled “Cautionary Statement regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and This Offering

Our stock price may be volatile and you may not be able to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price you paid.

The trading price of our common stock has been highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include those discussed in this “Risk Factors” section and the “Risk Factors” section contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and others such as:

 

 

results from, and any delays in, our clinical trials for darovasertib (IDE196), IDE397, IDE161, or any other future clinical development programs, including public misperception of the results of our clinical trials;

 

 

announcements by academic or other third parties challenging the fundamental premises underlying our approach to treating cancer and/or biopharmaceutical product development;

 

 

announcements of regulatory approval or disapproval of our current or any future product candidates;

 

 

failure or discontinuation of any of our research and development programs;

 

 

manufacturing setbacks or delays of or issues with the supply of the materials for our product candidates;

 

 

announcements relating to, or results from, our GSK Collaboration Agreement;

 

 

announcements relating to future licensing, collaboration or development agreements;

 

 

delays in the commercialization of our current or any future product candidates;

 

 

public misperception regarding the use of our therapies;

 

 

acquisitions and sales of new products, technologies or businesses;

 

 

quarterly variations in our results of operations or those of our future competitors;

 

 

changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;

 

 

announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant contracts, commercial relationships, acquisitions or capital commitments;

 

 

developments with respect to intellectual property rights;

 

 

our commencement of, or involvement in, litigation;

 

S-21


Table of Contents
 

changes in financial estimates or guidance, including our ability to meet our future revenue and operating profit or loss estimates or guidance;

 

 

major changes in our board of directors or management;

 

 

new legislation in the United States relating to the sale or pricing of pharmaceuticals;

 

 

FDA or other U.S. or comparable foreign regulatory actions affecting us or our industry;

 

 

product liability claims or other litigation or public concern about the safety of our product candidates;

 

 

market conditions in the biopharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, particularly as a result of the volatility in the market caused by pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as adverse geopolitical and macroeconomic developments, such as the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict and related sanctions, actual and anticipated changes in interest rates, economic inflation and the responses by central banking authorities to control such inflation; and

 

 

general economic and geo-political conditions in the United States and abroad.

In addition, the stock markets in general, and the markets for biopharmaceutical and biotechnology stocks in particular, have experienced extreme volatility. In particular, the market prices of securities of smaller biotechnology have experienced dramatic fluctuations that often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating results of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price or liquidity of our common stock. If the market price of our common stock after this offering does not exceed the public offering price, you may not realize any return on your investment in us and may lose some or all of your investment. Furthermore, the trading price of our common stock may be adversely affected by third-parties trying to drive down the market price. Short sellers and others, some of whom post anonymously on social media, may be positioned to profit if our stock declines and their activities can negatively affect our stock price. In the past, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against the issuer. If any of our stockholders were to bring such a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit and the attention of our management would be diverted from the operation of our business.

Purchasers of shares of our common stock or our pre-funded warrants in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the book value or value, respectively, of their investment.

If you purchase shares of our common stock or our pre-funded warrants in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the as adjusted net tangible book value of your stock or pre-funded warrants because the price that you pay will be substantially greater than the net tangible book value per share of the shares or pre-funded warrants you acquire. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders and pre-funded warrant holders will experience substantial additional dilution. For a further description of the dilution that you will experience immediately after this offering, see the section of this prospectus supplement titled “Dilution.”

If we sell shares of our common stock or other securities in future financings, stockholders may experience immediate dilution and, as a result, our stock price may decline.

We may from time to time issue additional shares of common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stock at a discount from the current trading price of our common stock. As a result, our stockholders and other holders of our securities would experience immediate dilution upon the purchase of any shares of our common stock sold at such discount. In addition, as opportunities present themselves, we may enter into financing or similar arrangements in the future, including the issuance of debt securities,

 

S-22


Table of Contents

preferred stock or common stock. If we issue common stock or securities convertible into common stock, our common stockholders would experience additional dilution and, as a result, our stock price may decline.

We have broad discretion to determine how to use the funds raised in this offering, and may use them in ways that may not enhance our operating results or the price of our common stock.

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, including for any of the purposes described in the section titled “Use of Proceeds,” as well as our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities, and you will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding such application. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. Our management might not apply the net proceeds or our existing cash in ways that ultimately increase the value of your investment. If we do not invest or apply the net proceeds from this offering or our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected business and financial results, which could cause our stock price to decline. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to in-license, acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products. However, we currently have no agreements or commitments to complete any such transaction. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in interest-bearing, investment-grade securities, certificates of deposit or government securities. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders.

Future sales of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could cause our stock price to fall.

The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock or other equity-related securities in the public markets, or the perception that such sales could occur, could depress the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We may sell large quantities of our common stock at any time pursuant to this prospectus supplement or in one or more separate offerings. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of common stock or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of our common stock.

If securities or industry analysts do not continue to publish research or reports about our business, or if they issue an adverse or misleading opinion regarding our stock, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock is influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If any of the analysts who cover us issue an adverse or misleading opinion regarding us, our business model, our intellectual property or our stock performance, or if our clinical trials and operating results fail to meet the expectations of analysts, our stock price will likely decline. In addition, if one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

There is no public market for the pre-funded warrants being offered in this offering.

There is no public trading market for the pre-funded warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to list the pre-funded warrants on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants will be limited. See the section titled “Description of Pre-Funded Warrants.”

 

S-23


Table of Contents

We will not receive any meaningful amount of additional funds upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants.

Each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable until it is fully exercised and by means of payment of the nominal cash purchase price upon exercise or by means of a “cashless exercise” according to a formula set forth in the pre-funded warrant. Accordingly, we will not receive any meaningful additional funds upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants.

Holders of the pre-funded warrants will have no rights as common stockholders until such holders exercise their pre-funded warrants and acquire shares of our common stock.

Until holders of the pre-funded warrants exercise their pre-funded warrants and acquire shares of our common stock, such holders will have no rights with respect to the shares of our common stock underlying such pre-funded warrants. Upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

Significant holders or beneficial holders of shares of our common stock may not be permitted to exercise the pre-funded warrants that they hold.

A holder of the pre-funded warrants will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any pre-funded warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause: (i) the aggregate number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as applicable; or (ii) the combined voting power of our securities beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99% of the combined voting power of all of our securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as applicable, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the pre-funded warrants. As a result, you may not be able to exercise your pre-funded warrants for shares of our common stock at a time when it would be financially beneficial for you to do so. In such a circumstance, you could seek to sell your pre-funded warrants to realize value, but you may be unable to do so in the absence of an established trading market and due to applicable transfer restrictions. See the section titled “Description of Pre-Funded Warrants.”

Use of Proceeds

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of 5,000,000 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase 319,150 shares of common stock offered by us in this offering will be approximately $117.0 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, we estimate that our net proceeds will be approximately $134.7 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We currently intend to use our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term marketable securities together with the net proceeds from this offering to fund (i) ongoing clinical development of darovasertib and crizotinib, as combination therapy in MUM, including our Phase 2/3 potential registrational clinical trial, as well as our Phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate darovasertib as neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in primary uveal melanoma and a Phase 2 expansion of darovasertib and crizotinib combination in metastatic cutaneous melanoma, (ii) preparation for potential commercial launch of darovasertib for MUM, subject to FDA approval, including enhancing capabilities for a U.S. commercial launch, support for a European commercial launch, and building initial general and administrative commercial operations, (iii) ongoing clinical development of IDE397 in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial, as monotherapy in patients having tumors with MTAP-deletion in NSCLC, bladder cancer and other solid tumors, and our share of costs for evaluation of IDE397 in collaboration with Amgen, in combination with AMG 193 (iv) ongoing clinical development of IDE161 targeting PARG in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial for patients having HRD, including in ER+, Her2- HRD breast cancer patients, HRD ovarian cancer patients and patients having other HRD solid tumors, (v) additional potential clinical trials for the combination of IDE397 or IDE161 with other therapies, (vi) preclinical and clinical development of other product candidates in our research pipeline, including our share of costs for our Werner Helicase program under the GSK Collaboration Agreement and (vii) our research platform enabling identification and validation of precision medicine targets and biomarkers, and drug discovery research and development activities. We currently intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds for working capital and for other general corporate purposes.

We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to in-license, acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products. However, we currently have no agreements or commitments to complete any such transaction.

This expected use of the net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion of this offering or the actual amounts that we will spend on the uses set forth above. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering.

Pending the application of the net proceeds as set forth above, we intend to invest the net proceeds in interest-bearing, investment-grade securities, certificates of deposit or government securities.

Description of Pre-Funded Warrants

The following is a brief summary of certain terms and conditions of the pre-funded warrants being offered in this offering. The following description is subject in all respects to the provisions contained in the pre-funded warrants.

Form

The pre-funded warrants will be issued as individual warrant agreements to the purchasers. The form of pre-funded warrant will be filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC.

Term

The pre-funded warrants will not expire until they are fully exercised.

Exercisability

The pre-funded warrants are exercisable at any time until they are fully exercised. The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and payment of the exercise price. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a pre-funded warrant. The holder of the pre-funded warrants may also satisfy its obligation to pay the exercise price through a “cashless exercise,” in which the holder receives the net value of the pre-funded warrant in shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the pre-funded warrant.

Exercise Limitations

We may not effect the exercise of any pre-funded warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any pre-funded warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause: (i) the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise; or (ii) the combined voting power of our securities beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of the combined voting power of all of our securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is set forth in accordance with the terms of the pre-funded warrants. However, any holder of a pre-funded warrant may increase or decrease such percentage upon at least 61 days’ prior written notice from the holder to us.

Antidilution and Other Adjustments

The exercise price of the pre-funded warrants for shares of common stock to be issued upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants is $0.0001 per share. The exercise price of the pre-funded warrants and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our shares of common stock, as well as upon any distribution of assets, including cash, stock or other property, to our stockholders. The exercise price of the pre-funded warrants will not be adjusted below the par value per share of our common stock.

Subject to applicable laws, the pre-funded warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.

Exchange Listing

We do not intend to list the pre-funded warrants on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, any other national securities exchange or any other nationally recognized trading system.

Fundamental Transactions

Upon the consummation of a fundamental transaction (as described in the pre-funded warrants, and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of shares of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock), the holders of the pre-funded warrants will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that such holders would have received had they exercised the pre-funded warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction, without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the pre-funded warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a fundamental transaction where the consideration consists solely of cash, solely of marketable securities or a combination of cash and marketable securities, then each pre-funded warrant shall automatically be deemed to be exercised in full in a cashless exercise effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such fundamental transaction.

No Rights as a Stockholder

Except by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of a pre-funded warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of shares of our common stock, including any voting rights, until such holder exercises the pre-funded warrant.

Dilution

If you invest in our common stock or pre-funded warrants in this offering, your ownership interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our common stock or per pre-funded warrant to purchase our common stock and the as-adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.

Our net tangible book value as of June 30, 2023 was $501.6 million, or $8.73 per share. Net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2023. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after giving effect to this offering.

After giving effect to the sale of 5,000,000 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase 319,150 shares of common stock in this offering by us at the public offering price of $23.50 per share and $23.4999 per pre-funded warrant (which equals the price per share at which the shares of common stock are being sold to the public in this offering, minus the $0.0001 per share exercise price of each such pre-funded warrant) (and excluding shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants or any resulting accounting associated therewith), and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as-adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2023 would have been $618.6 million, or $9.91 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $1.18 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $13.59 per share to investors participating in this offering, as illustrated in the following table:

Dilution per share to new investors participating in this offering1

            $ 13.59  

If the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares, as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering would increase to $10.06 per share, and there would be an immediate dilution of $13.44 per share to new investors.

To the extent that outstanding options with an exercise price per share that is less than the as adjusted net tangible book value per share are exercised, new investors will experience further dilution. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

 

1    Dilution per share to purchasers of our pre-funded warrants is substantially the same as dilution per share to purchasers of shares of our common stock.

Table of Contents

In addition, the foregoing calculations exclude the following shares as of June 30, 2023:

 

 

319,150 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants we are offering in lieu of shares of common stock to certain investors;

 

 

1,036,421 shares of our common stock sold through our “at the market offerings” under the 2023 Sales Agreement after June 30, 2023 at a weighted-average sales price of $26.27;

 

 

2,020,270 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants to purchase our common stock issued in an underwritten public follow-on offering completed by us on April 27, 2023, at a public offering price of $18.4999 per underlying share;

 

 

7,138,527 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options that were outstanding as of June 30, 2023, with a weighted average exercise price of $14.64 per share;

 

 

127,500 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted after June 30, 2023, with a weighted-average exercise price of $23.66 per share;

 

 

699,800 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to future awards under our 2023 Employment Inducement Award Plan;

 

 

656,992 shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to future awards under our 2019 Incentive Award Plan, as well as any automatic increases in the number of shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under this plan; and

 

 

1,346,300 shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to future awards under our 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as well as any automatic increases in the number of shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under this plan.

To the extent that any options or pre-funded warrants are exercised, new options are issued or we otherwise issue additional shares of common stock in the future at a price less than the public offering price, there may be further dilution to purchasers of our common stock or pre-funded warrants in this offering.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock and pre-funded warrants, which we refer to collectively as the “Securities,” issued pursuant to this offering, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. No Non-U.S. Holders were offered or sold pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in this offering. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local or non-U.S. tax laws are not discussed. This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, in each case in effect as of the date hereof. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a holder of the Securities. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Securities.

This discussion is limited to holders that hold the Securities as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a holder’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income and the alternative minimum tax. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to holders subject to special rules, including, without limitation:

 

 

U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

 

 

persons holding the Securities as part of a hedge, straddle or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a conversion transaction or other integrated investment;

 

 

banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions;

 

 

brokers, dealers or traders in securities;

 

 

“controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

 

 

partnerships or other entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and investors therein);

 

 

tax-exempt organizations or governmental organizations;

 

 

persons deemed to sell the Securities under the constructive sale provisions of the Code;

 

 

persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to the stock being taken into account in an “applicable financial statement” (as defined in the Code);

 

 

persons who hold or receive the Securities pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation;

 

 

tax-qualified retirement plans; and

 

 

“qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds.

If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds the Securities, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend on the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and

 

S-35


Table of Contents

certain determinations made at the partner level. Accordingly, partnerships holding the Securities and the partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES ARISING UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY.

Treatment of Pre-funded Warrants

Although not free from doubt, a pre-funded warrant should be treated as a share of our common stock for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and a holder of pre-funded warrants should generally be taxed in the same manner as a holder of common stock, as described below. Accordingly, no gain or loss should be recognized (other than with respect to cash paid in lieu of a fractional share) upon the exercise of a pre-funded warrant (except in the case of a cashless exercise, the treatment of which for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not clear) and, upon exercise, the holding period of a pre-funded warrant should carry over to the share of common stock received. Similarly, the tax basis of the pre-funded warrant should carry over to the share of common stock received upon exercise, increased by the exercise price of $0.0001. The discussion below assumes the characterization described above is respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the risks associated with the acquisition of pre-funded warrants pursuant to this offering (including alternative characterizations).

Tax Considerations Applicable to U.S. Holders

Definition of a U.S. Holder

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is any beneficial owner of the Securities that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as any of the following:

 

 

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

 

 

a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;

 

 

an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

 

 

a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and the control of one or more United States persons (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), or (2) has made a valid election under applicable Treasury Regulations to continue to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Distributions

As described in the section of this prospectus titled “Dividend Policy,” we have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions on our common stock, such distributions of cash or property on our

 

S-36


Table of Contents

common stock will constitute dividends to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Dividends received by a corporate U.S. Holder may be eligible for a dividends received deduction, subject to applicable limitations. Dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, are generally taxed at the lower applicable capital gains rate provided certain holding period and other requirements are satisfied. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital and first be applied against and reduce a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock, but not below zero. Any excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described below under “—Sale or Other Taxable Disposition.”

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

Upon the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of the common stock or pre-funded warrants, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received upon the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition and (ii) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common stock or pre-funded warrant. Such capital gain or loss will be long- term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period in such common stock or pre-funded warrant is more than one year at the time of the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition. Long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income tax. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

Constructive Dividends on Pre-funded Warrants

A holder of a pre-funded warrant may, in some circumstances, be deemed to have received a distribution subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of an adjustment or the non-occurrence of an adjustment to the exercise price or number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the pre-funded warrant. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the proper treatment of any adjustments to the pre-funded warrants.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

A U.S. Holder may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding when such holder receives payments on the common stock or pre-funded warrants (including constructive dividends) or receives proceeds from the sale or other taxable disposition of common stock or pre-funded warrants. Certain U.S. Holders are exempt from backup withholding, including corporations and certain tax-exempt organizations. A U.S. Holder will be subject to backup withholding if such holder is not otherwise exempt and such holder:

 

 

fails to furnish the holder’s taxpayer identification number, which for an individual is ordinarily his or her social security number;

 

 

furnishes an incorrect taxpayer identification number;

 

 

is notified by the IRS that the holder previously failed to properly report payments of interest or dividends; or fails to certify under penalties of perjury that the holder has furnished a correct taxpayer identification number and that the IRS has not notified the holder that the holder is subject to backup withholding.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their qualification for an exemption from backup withholding and the procedures for obtaining such an exemption.

Tax Considerations Applicable to Non-U.S. Holders

For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of the Securities that is neither a U.S. Holder nor an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Distributions

As described in the section of this prospectus titled “Dividend Policy,” we have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions of cash or property on our common stock, such distributions will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Amounts not treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will constitute a return of capital and first be applied against and reduce a Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock, but not below zero. Any excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described below under “—Sale or Other Taxable Disposition.” Because we may not know the extent to which a distribution is a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes at the time it is made, for purposes of the withholding rules discussed below we or the applicable withholding agent may treat the entire distribution as a dividend.

Subject to the discussion below regarding effectively connected income, dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividends (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty, provided the Non-U.S. Holder furnishes a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) certifying qualification for the lower treaty rate). A Non-U.S. Holder that does not timely furnish the required documentation, but that qualifies for a reduced treaty rate, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable tax treaties.

If dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such dividends are attributable), the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the U.S. federal withholding tax described above. To claim the exemption, the Non-U.S. Holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a valid IRS Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States.

Any such effectively connected dividends will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates applicable to U.S. persons. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected dividends, as adjusted for certain items. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock unless:

 

 

the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such gain is attributable);

 

S-38


Table of Contents
 

the Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met; or

 

 

our common stock constitutes a U.S. real property interest, or a USRPI, by reason of our status as a U.S. real property holding corporation, or a USRPHC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates applicable to U.S. persons. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected gain, as adjusted for certain items.

A Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock, which gain may be offset by certain U.S.-source capital losses of the Non-U.S. Holder (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided the Non-U.S. Holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

With respect to the third bullet point above, we believe we currently are not, and do not anticipate becoming, a USRPHC. Because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends, however, on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market value of our non-U.S. real property interests and our other business assets, there can be no assurance we currently are not a USRPHC or will not become one in the future. Even if we are or were to become a USRPHC, gain arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax if our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market, and such Non-U.S. Holder owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our common stock throughout the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of dividends on our common stock will not be subject to backup withholding, provided the Non-U.S. Holder certifies its non-U.S. status, such as by furnishing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, or otherwise establishes an exemption. However, information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with any distributions on our common stock paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, regardless of whether such distributions constitute dividends or whether any tax was actually withheld. In addition, proceeds of the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related brokers generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting if the applicable withholding agent receives the certification described above or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Proceeds of a disposition of our common stock conducted through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker that does not have certain enumerated relationships with the United States generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting.

Copies of information returns that are filed with the IRS may also be made available under the provisions of an applicable treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts

Withholding taxes may be imposed under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends on, and, subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below, gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, our common stock paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code), unless (1) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (2) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (3) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in (1) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

Under the applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on our common stock. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our common stock on or after January 1, 2019, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued.

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA to their investment in our common stock.

We are offering the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants described in this prospectus supplement through a number of underwriters. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC and RBC Capital Markets LLC are acting as joint book-running managers of the offering and as representatives of the underwriters. We have entered into an underwriting agreement with the underwriters. Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, we have agreed to sell to the underwriters, and each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, the number of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants listed next to its name in the following table:

The underwriters are committed to purchase all the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants offered by us if they purchase any shares or pre-funded warrants. The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter defaults, the purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may also be increased or the offering may be terminated. The offering of the shares by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part.

The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and to certain dealers at that price less a concession not in excess of $0.846 per share. After the initial offering of the securities to the public, if all of the securities are not sold at the public offering price, the underwriters may change the offering price and the other selling terms. Sales of any securities made outside of the United States may be made by affiliates of the underwriters.

The underwriters have an option to buy up to 797,872 additional shares of common stock from us to cover sales of shares by the underwriters, which exceed the number of shares specified in the table above. The underwriters have 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement to exercise this option to purchase additional shares. If any shares are purchased with this option to purchase additional shares, the underwriters will purchase shares in approximately the same proportion as shown in the table above. If any additional shares of common stock are purchased, the underwriters will offer the additional shares on the same terms as those on which the shares are being offered.

The underwriting fee is equal to the public offering price per share of common stock less the amount paid by the underwriters to us per share of common stock, or the public offering price per pre-funded warrant less the amount paid by the underwriters to us per pre-funded warrant, as the case may be. The underwriting fee is $1.41 per share of common stock and per pre-funded warrant. The following table shows the per share and per pre-funded warrant and total underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid to the underwriters assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares.

We estimate that the total expenses of this offering, including registration, filing and listing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses, but excluding the underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $460,000. We also have agreed to reimburse the underwriters for certain of their expenses in an amount up to $25,000.

A prospectus supplement in electronic format may be made available on the web sites maintained by one or more underwriters, or selling group members, if any, participating in the offering. The underwriters may agree to allocate a number of shares to underwriters and selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the representatives to underwriters and selling group members that may make Internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in stabilizing transactions, which involve making bids for, purchasing and selling shares of common stock in the open market for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common stock while this offering is in progress. These stabilizing transactions may include making short sales of the common stock, which involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares of common stock than they are required to purchase in this offering, and purchasing shares of common stock on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales may be “covered” shorts, which are short positions in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares referred to above, or may be “naked” shorts, which are short positions in excess of that amount. The underwriters may close out any covered short position either by exercising their option to purchase additional shares, in whole or in part, or by purchasing shares in the open market. In making this determination, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market compared to the price at which the underwriters may purchase shares through the option to purchase additional shares. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the common stock in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. To the extent that the underwriters create a naked short position, they will purchase shares in the open market to cover the position.

The underwriters have advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M of the Securities Act, they may also engage in other activities that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the common stock, including the imposition of penalty bids. This means that if the representatives of the underwriters purchase common stock in the open market in stabilizing transactions or to cover short sales, the representatives can require the underwriters that sold those shares as part of this offering to repay the underwriting discount received by them.

These activities may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of the common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common stock, and, as a result, the price of the

 

S-44


Table of Contents

common stock may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If the underwriters commence these activities, they may discontinue them at any time. The underwriters may carry out these transactions on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, in the market or otherwise.

Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have provided in the past to us and our affiliates and may provide from time to time in the future certain commercial banking, financial advisory, investment banking and other services for us and such affiliates in the ordinary course of their business, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions. Jefferies LLC is the sales agent under our Open Market Sale Agreement, or the Sale Agreement, dated June 26, 2023, between us and Jefferies LLC. Under the Sale Agreement, we may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock through Jefferies LLC through an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act. In addition, from time to time, certain of the underwriters and their affiliates may effect transactions for their own account or the account of customers, and hold on behalf of themselves or their customers, long or short positions in our debt or equity securities or loans, and may do so in the future.

Our shares are quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “IDYA.” We do not intend to list the pre-funded warrants on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of an automatic registration statement that we filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, as a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, using a “shelf” registration process. By using an automatic shelf registration statement, we may sell securities from time to time and in one or more offerings as described in this prospectus. Each time that we offer and sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement to this prospectus that contains specific information about the securities being offered and sold and the specific terms of that offering. We may also authorize one or more free writing prospectuses to be provided to you that may contain material information relating to these offerings. The prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus with respect to that offering. If there is any inconsistency between the information in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, you should rely on the prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, as applicable; provided that, if any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date—for example, a document incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement—the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement. Before purchasing any securities, you should carefully read both this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement (and any applicable free writing prospectuses), together with the additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

Neither we, nor any agent, underwriter or dealer have authorized anyone to provide you with any information or to make any representations other than those contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectuses prepared by or on behalf of us or to which we have referred you. We and any agent, underwriter or dealer take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. We will not make an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement to this prospectus is accurate only as of the date on its respective cover, that the information appearing in any applicable free writing prospectus is accurate only as of the date of that free writing prospectus, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless we indicate otherwise. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates. This prospectus incorporates by reference, and any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may contain and incorporate by reference, market data and industry statistics and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications and other publicly available information. Although we believe these sources are reliable, we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information and we have not independently verified this information. In addition, the market and industry data and forecasts that may be included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any applicable free writing prospectus may involve estimates, assumptions and other risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in this prospectus, the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable free writing prospectus, and under similar headings in other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on this information.

When we refer to “IDEAYA,” “we,” “our,” “us” and the “company” in this prospectus, we mean IDEAYA Biosciences, Inc., unless otherwise specified. When we refer to “you,” we mean the potential holders of the applicable series of securities.

IDEAYA®, IDEAYA and our logo are some of our trademarks used in this prospectus. This prospectus also includes trademarks, tradenames and service marks that are the property of other organizations.

Table of Contents

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following summary describes our capital stock and the material provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws and of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL. Because the following is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. For a complete description, you should refer to the full text of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, which are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. We encourage you to read those documents and the DGCL carefully.

General

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes 300,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share.

Common Stock

Voting Rights

Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the voting shares are able to elect all of the directors. In addition, the affirmative vote of holders of 66-2/3% of the voting power of all of the then outstanding voting stock is required to take certain actions, including amending certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, such as the provisions relating to amending our amended and restated bylaws, the classified board and director liability.

Liquidation

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Rights and Preferences

Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate in the future.

Fully Paid and Nonassessable

All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC. The transfer agent and registrar’s address is 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219.

Dividend

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds.

Table of Contents

Undesignated Preferred Stock

Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting, or the designation of, such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock. The issuance of our preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon our liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company or other corporate action. No shares of preferred stock are outstanding, and we have no present plan to issue any shares of preferred stock.

Warrants

In April 2023, in an underwritten public offering of our common stock, we issued and sold, in lieu of common stock for certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock to the underwriters, at a public offering price of $18.4999 per underlying share, before underwriting discounts and commissions. 2,020,270 shares of common stock are issuable upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants. Each pre-funded warrant is exercisable, at a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per pre-funded warrant, until fully exercised, subject to an ownership limitation. The material terms and provisions of the pre-funded warrants are described in the form of pre-funded warrant, which was filed with the SEC as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 27, 2023.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Our Amended and Restated Bylaws and Delaware Law

Some provisions of Delaware law and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: acquisition of us by means of a tender offer; acquisition of us by means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or removal of our incumbent officers and directors. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in our best interests, including transactions that might result in a premium over the market price for our shares.

These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits persons deemed “interested stockholders” from engaging in a “business combination” with a publicly-held Delaware corporation for three years following the date these persons become interested stockholders unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the board of directors, such as discouraging takeover attempts that might result in a premium over the market price of our common stock.

 

8


Table of Contents

Undesignated Preferred Stock

The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of our company.

Special Stockholder Meetings

Our amended and restated bylaws provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called by our board of directors.

Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals

Our amended and restated bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors.

Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws eliminate the right of stockholders to act by written consent without a meeting.

Classified Board; Election and Removal of Directors; Filling Vacancies

Our board of directors is divided into three classes. The directors in each class serve for a three-year term, one class being elected each year by our stockholders, with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors is elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. Because our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights, our stockholders holding a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding are able to elect all of our directors. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for the removal of any of our directors only for cause and requires a stockholder vote by the holders of at least a 66-2/3% of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock. Furthermore, any vacancy on our board of directors, however occurring, including a vacancy resulting from an increase in the size of the board, may only be filled by a resolution of the board of directors unless the board of directors determines that such vacancies shall be filled by the stockholders. This system of electing and removing directors and filling vacancies may tend to discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, because it generally makes it more difficult for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors.

Choice of Forum

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for: any state law derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty; any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the DGCL; or any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Similarly, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the U.S. federal district courts are the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with such actions or any future actions, a court could find the choice of forum provisions contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Although our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains the choice of forum provision described above, it is possible that a court could find that such provisions are inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provisions are unenforceable.

Amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

The amendment of any of the above provisions, except for the provision making it possible for our board of directors to issue undesignated preferred stock, would require approval by a stockholder vote by the holders of at least a 66-2/3% of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock.

The provisions of the DGCL, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they may also inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of our common stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

Limitations of Liability and Indemnification Matters

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

 

   

any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

 

   

any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

 

   

unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; or

 

   

any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Each of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Our amended and restated bylaws also obligate us to advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him or her under Delaware law. We have entered and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers and other employees as determined by our board of directors. With specified exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including, among other things, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. We also maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and officers for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damages.

Listing

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “IDYA.”

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The following description, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, summarizes certain general terms and provisions of the debt securities that we may offer under this prospectus. When we offer to sell a particular series of debt securities, we will describe the specific terms of the series in a supplement to this prospectus. We will also indicate in the supplement to what extent the general terms and provisions described in this prospectus apply to a particular series of debt securities.

We may issue debt securities either separately, or together with, or upon the conversion or exercise of or in exchange for, other securities described in this prospectus. Debt securities may be our senior, senior subordinated or subordinated obligations and, unless otherwise specified in a supplement to this prospectus, the debt securities will be our direct, unsecured obligations and may be issued in one or more series.

The debt securities will be issued under an indenture between us and a third party to be identified therein, as trustee. We have summarized select portions of the indenture below. The summary is not complete. The form of the indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and you should read the indenture for provisions that may be important to you.

We will provide you with information on the federal income tax considerations and other special considerations applicable to any of these debt securities in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents

If we denominate the purchase price of any of the debt securities in a foreign currency or currencies or a foreign currency unit or units, or if the principal of and any premium and interest on any series of debt securities is payable in a foreign currency or currencies or a foreign currency unit or units, we will provide you with information on the restrictions, elections, general tax considerations, specific terms and other information with respect to that issue of debt securities and such foreign currency or currencies or foreign currency unit or units in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Transfer and Exchange

Each debt security will be represented by either one or more global securities registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company, or the Depositary, or a nominee of the Depositary (we will refer to any debt security represented by a global debt security as a “book-entry debt security”), or a certificate issued in definitive registered form (we will refer to any debt security represented by a certificated security as a “certificated debt security”) as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Except as set forth under the heading “Global Debt Securities and Book-Entry System” below, book-entry debt securities will not be issuable in certificated form.

Certificated Debt Securities. You may transfer or exchange certificated debt securities at any office we maintain for this purpose in accordance with the terms of the indenture. No service charge will be made for any transfer or exchange of certificated debt securities, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with a transfer or exchange.

You may effect the transfer of certificated debt securities and the right to receive the principal of, premium and interest on certificated debt securities only by surrendering the certificate representing those certificated debt securities and either reissuance by us or the trustee of the certificate to the new holder or the issuance by us or the trustee of a new certificate to the new holder.

Global Debt Securities and Book-Entry System. Each global debt security representing book-entry debt securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. Please see “Global Securities.”

Covenants

We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement any restrictive covenants applicable to any issue of debt securities.

No Protection in the Event of a Change of Control

Unless we state otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not contain any provisions which may afford holders of the debt securities protection in the event we have a change in control or in the event of a highly leveraged transaction (whether or not such transaction results in a change in control), which could adversely affect holders of debt securities.

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

We may not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our properties and assets to any person (a “successor person”) unless:

 

   

we are the surviving corporation or the successor person (if other than IDEAYA) is a corporation organized and validly existing under the laws of any U.S. domestic jurisdiction and expressly assumes our obligations on the debt securities and under the indenture; and

 

   

immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default or Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

13


Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the above, any of our subsidiaries may consolidate with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties to us.

Events of Default

“Event of Default” means with respect to any series of debt securities, any of the following:

 

   

default in the payment of any interest upon any debt security of that series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (unless the entire amount of the payment is deposited by us with the trustee or with a paying agent prior to the expiration of the 30-day period);

 

   

default in the payment of principal of any security of that series at its maturity;

 

   

default in the performance or breach of any other covenant or warranty by us in the indenture (other than a covenant or warranty that has been included in the indenture solely for the benefit of a series of debt securities other than that series), which default continues uncured for a period of 60 days after we receive written notice from the trustee or IDEAYA and the trustee receive written notice from the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series as provided in the indenture;

 

   

certain voluntary or involuntary events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of IDEAYA;

 

   

any other Event of Default provided with respect to debt securities of that series that is described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

No Event of Default with respect to a particular series of debt securities (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. The occurrence of certain Events of Default or an acceleration under the indenture may constitute an event of default under certain indebtedness of ours or our subsidiaries outstanding from time to time.

We will provide the trustee written notice of any Default or Event of Default within 30 days of becoming aware of the occurrence of such Default or Event of Default, which notice will describe in reasonable detail the status of such Default or Event of Default and what action we are taking or propose to take in respect thereof.

If an Event of Default with respect to debt securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, by a notice in writing to us (and to the trustee if given by the holders), declare to be due and payable immediately the principal of (or, if the debt securities of that series are discount securities, that portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all debt securities of that series. In the case of an Event of Default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal (or such specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding debt securities will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder of outstanding debt securities. At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to debt securities of any series has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may rescind and annul the acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to debt securities of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the indenture. We refer you to the prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities that are discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of a portion of the principal amount of such discount securities upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

Table of Contents

The indenture provides that the trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture unless the trustee receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any cost, liability or expense which might be incurred by it in performing such duty or exercising such right or power. Subject to certain rights of the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the debt securities of that series.

No holder of any debt security of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy under the indenture, unless:

 

   

that holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to debt securities of that series; and

 

   

the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series have made written request, and offered indemnity or security satisfactory to the trustee, to the trustee to institute the proceeding as trustee, and the trustee has not received from the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series a direction inconsistent with that request and has failed to institute the proceeding within 60 days.

Notwithstanding any other provision in the indenture, the holder of any debt security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of, premium and any interest on that debt security on or after the due dates expressed in that debt security and to institute suit for the enforcement of payment.

The indenture requires us, within 120 days after the end of our fiscal year, to furnish to the trustee a statement as to compliance with the indenture. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the securities of any series and if it is known to a responsible officer of the trustee, the trustee shall mail to each Securityholder of the securities of that series notice of a Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a responsible officer of the trustee has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. The indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of debt securities of any series of any Default or Event of Default (except in payment on any debt securities of that series) with respect to debt securities of that series if the trustee determines in good faith that withholding notice is in the interest of the holders of those debt securities.

Modification and Waiver

We and the trustee may modify, amend or supplement the indenture or the debt securities of any series without the consent of any holder of any debt security:

 

   

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

 

   

to comply with covenants in the indenture described above under the heading “Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets”;

 

   

to provide for uncertificated securities in addition to or in place of certificated securities;

 

   

to add guarantees with respect to debt securities of any series or secure debt securities of any series;

 

   

to surrender any of our rights or powers under the indenture;

 

   

to add covenants or events of default for the benefit of the holders of debt securities of any series;

 

   

to comply with the applicable procedures of the applicable depositary;

 

   

to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of debt securities;

 

 

15


Table of Contents
   

to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of debt securities of any series as permitted by the indenture;

 

   

to effect the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the debt securities of any series and to add to or change any of the provisions of the indenture to provide for or facilitate administration by more than one trustee; or

 

   

to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act.

We may also modify and amend the indenture with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the modifications or amendments. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of the holders of each affected debt security then outstanding if that amendment will:

 

   

reduce the amount of debt securities whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

 

   

reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any debt security;

 

   

reduce the principal of or premium on or change the fixed maturity of any debt security or reduce the amount of, or postpone the date fixed for, the payment of any sinking fund or analogous obligation with respect to any series of debt securities;

 

   

reduce the principal amount of discount securities payable upon acceleration of maturity;

 

   

waive a default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on any debt security (except a rescission of acceleration of the debt securities of any series by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of that series and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

 

   

make the principal of or premium or interest on any debt security payable in currency other than that stated in the debt security;

 

   

make any change to certain provisions of the indenture relating to, among other things, the right of holders of debt securities to receive payment of the principal of, premium and interest on those debt securities and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and to waivers or amendments; or

 

   

waive a redemption payment with respect to any debt security.

Except for certain specified provisions, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of that series waive our compliance with provisions of the indenture. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, premium or any interest on any debt security of that series; provided, however, that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration.

Defeasance of Debt Securities and Certain Covenants in Certain Circumstances

Legal Defeasance. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, we may be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the debt securities of any series (subject to certain exceptions). We will be so discharged upon the irrevocable deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency

 

16


Table of Contents

other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money or U.S. government obligations in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities.

This discharge may occur only if, among other things, we have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that we have received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling or, since the date of execution of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred.

Defeasance of Certain Covenants. The indenture provides that, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the applicable series of debt securities, upon compliance with certain conditions:

 

   

we may omit to comply with the covenant described under the heading “Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” and certain other covenants set forth in the indenture, as well as any additional covenants which may be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement; and

 

   

any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of that series, or “covenant defeasance.”

The conditions include:

 

   

depositing with the trustee money and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars, government obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued such currency, that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or investment bank to pay and discharge each installment of principal of, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the debt securities of that series on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indenture and those debt securities; and

 

   

delivering to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the debt securities of that series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and related covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit and related covenant defeasance had not occurred.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees or Stockholders

None of our past, present or future directors, officers, employees or stockholders, as such, will have any liability for any of our obligations under the debt securities or the indenture or for any claim based on, or in respect or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. By accepting a debt security, each holder waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is part of the consideration for the issue of the debt securities. However, this waiver and release may not be effective to waive liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws, and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.

Governing Law

The indenture and the debt securities, including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the indenture or the securities, will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

The indenture will provide that we, the trustee and the holders of the debt securities (by their acceptance of the debt securities) irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the indenture, the debt securities or the transactions contemplated thereby.

The indenture will provide that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon the indenture or the transactions contemplated thereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City of New York, and we, the trustee and the holder of the debt securities (by their acceptance of the debt securities) irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The indenture will further provide that service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail (to the extent allowed under any applicable statute or rule of court) to such party’s address set forth in the indenture will be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The indenture will further provide that we, the trustee and the holders of the debt securities (by their acceptance of the debt securities) irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the courts specified above and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim any such suit, action or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants for the purchase of shares of our common stock or preferred stock or of debt securities. We may issue warrants independently or together with other securities, and the warrants may be attached to or separate from any offered securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and the investors or a warrant agent. The following summary of material provisions of the warrants and warrant agreements are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the warrant agreement and warrant certificate applicable to a particular series of warrants. The terms of any warrants offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, as well as the complete warrant agreements and warrant certificates that contain the terms of the warrants.

The particular terms of any issue of warrants will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to the issue. Those terms may include:

 

   

the number of shares of common stock or preferred stock purchasable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase such shares and the price at which such number of shares may be purchased upon such exercise;

 

   

the designation, stated value and terms (including, without limitation, liquidation, dividend, conversion and voting rights) of the series of preferred stock purchasable upon exercise of warrants to purchase preferred stock;

 

   

the principal amount of debt securities that may be purchased upon exercise of a debt warrant and the exercise price for the warrants, which may be payable in cash, securities or other property;

 

   

the date, if any, on and after which the warrants and the related debt securities, preferred stock or common stock will be separately transferable;

 

   

the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants;

 

   

the date on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and the date on which the right will expire;

 

   

U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to the warrants; and

 

   

any additional terms of the warrants, including terms, procedures, and limitations relating to the exchange, exercise and settlement of the warrants.

Holders of equity warrants will not be entitled:

 

   

to vote, consent or receive dividends;

 

   

to receive notice as stockholders with respect to any meeting of stockholders for the election of our directors or any other matter; or

 

   

to exercise any rights as stockholders of IDEAYA.

Each warrant will entitle its holder to purchase the principal amount of debt securities or the number of shares of preferred stock or common stock at the exercise price set forth in, or calculable as set forth in, the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.

GLOBAL SECURITIES

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

Unless we indicate differently in any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, each debt security, warrant and unit initially will be issued in book-entry form and represented by one or more global notes or global securities, or, collectively, global securities. The global securities will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, as depositary, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC. Unless and until it is exchanged for individual certificates evidencing securities under the limited circumstances described below, a global security may not be transferred except as a whole by the depositary to its nominee or by the nominee to the depositary, or by the depositary or its nominee to a successor depositary or to a nominee of the successor depositary.

DTC has advised us that it is:

 

   

a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law;

 

   

a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law;

 

   

a member of the Federal Reserve System;

 

   

a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and

 

   

a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act.

DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among its participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. “Direct participants” in DTC include securities brokers and dealers, including underwriters, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others, which we sometimes refer to as indirect participants, that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

Purchases of securities under the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of the actual purchaser of a security, which we sometimes refer to as a beneficial owner, is in turn recorded on the direct and indirect participants’ records. Beneficial owners of securities will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases. However, beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of their transactions, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through which they purchased securities. Transfers of ownership interests in global securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the global securities, except under the limited circumstances described below.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all global securities deposited by direct participants with DTC will be registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee will not change the beneficial ownership of the securities. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the securities. DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts the securities are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The participants are responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Table of Contents

So long as the securities are in book-entry form, you will receive payments and may transfer securities only through the facilities of the depositary and its direct and indirect participants. We will maintain an office or agency in the location specified in the prospectus supplement for the applicable securities, where notices and demands in respect of the securities and the indenture may be delivered to us and where certificated securities may be surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or exchange.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants and by direct participants and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any legal requirements in effect from time to time.

Redemption notices will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the securities of a particular series are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in the securities of such series to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (or such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC will mail an omnibus proxy to us as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns the consenting or voting rights of Cede & Co. to those direct participants to whose accounts the securities of such series are credited on the record date, identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.

So long as securities are in book-entry form, we will make payments on those securities to the depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of such securities, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If securities are issued in definitive certificated form under the limited circumstances described below and if not otherwise provided in the description of the applicable securities herein or in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will have the option of making payments by check mailed to the addresses of the persons entitled to payment or by wire transfer to bank accounts in the United States designated in writing to the applicable trustee or other designated party at least 15 days before the applicable payment date by the persons entitled to payment, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the applicable trustee or other designated party.

Redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments on the securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit direct participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from us on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC records. Payments by participants to beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the account of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” Those payments will be the responsibility of participants and not of DTC or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC, is our responsibility, disbursement of payments to direct participants is the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of payments to the beneficial owners is the responsibility of direct and indirect participants.

Except under the limited circumstances described below, purchasers of securities will not be entitled to have securities registered in their names and will not receive physical delivery of securities. Accordingly, each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of DTC and its participants to exercise any rights under the securities and the indenture.

The laws of some jurisdictions may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of securities in definitive form. Those laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge beneficial interests in securities.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depositary with respect to the securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to us. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depositary is not obtained, securities certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

Table of Contents

As noted above, beneficial owners of a particular series of securities generally will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in those securities. However, if:

 

   

DTC notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for the global security or securities representing such series of securities or if DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when it is required to be registered and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days of the notification to us or of our becoming aware of DTC’s ceasing to be so registered, as the case may be;

 

   

we determine, in our sole discretion, not to have such securities represented by one or more global securities; or

 

   

an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such series of securities,

we will prepare and deliver certificates for such securities in exchange for beneficial interests in the global securities. Any beneficial interest in a global security that is exchangeable under the circumstances described in the preceding sentence will be exchangeable for securities in definitive certificated form registered in the names that the depositary directs. It is expected that these directions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global securities.

Euroclear and Clearstream

If so provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, you may hold interests in a global security through Clearstream Banking S.A., which we refer to as “Clearstream,” or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System, which we refer to as “Euroclear,” either directly if you are a participant in Clearstream or Euroclear or indirectly through organizations which are participants in Clearstream or Euroclear. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their respective participants through customers’ securities accounts in the names of Clearstream and Euroclear, respectively, on the books of their respective U.S. depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers’ securities accounts in such depositaries’ names on DTC’s books.

Clearstream and Euroclear are securities clearance systems in Europe. Clearstream and Euroclear hold securities for their respective participating organizations and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between those participants through electronic book-entry changes in their accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates.

Payments, deliveries, transfers, exchanges, notices and other matters relating to beneficial interests in global securities owned through Euroclear or Clearstream must comply with the rules and procedures of those systems. Transactions between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on one hand, and other participants in DTC, on the other hand, are also subject to DTC’s rules and procedures.

Investors will be able to make and receive through Euroclear and Clearstream payments, deliveries, transfers and other transactions involving any beneficial interests in global securities held through those systems only on days when those systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in the United States.

Cross-market transfers between participants in DTC, on the one hand, and participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with the DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective U.S. depositaries; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (European time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its U.S. depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the global securities through DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day fund settlement. Participants in Euroclear or Clearstream may not deliver instructions directly to their respective U.S. depositaries.

Table of Contents

Due to time zone differences, the securities accounts of a participant in Euroclear or Clearstream purchasing an interest in a global security from a direct participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant participant in Euroclear or Clearstream, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear or Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global security by or through a participant in Euroclear or Clearstream to a direct participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.
