GOSSAMER BIO, INC.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of the Business

Gossamer Bio, Inc. (including its subsidiaries, referred to as “we,” “us,” “our,”, or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, acquiring, developing and commercializing therapeutics in the disease areas of immunology, inflammation and oncology. The Company was incorporated in the state of Delaware on October 25, 2015 (originally as FSG Bio, Inc.) and is based in San Diego, California.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Gossamer Bio, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions among the consolidated entity have been eliminated in consolidation.

Initial Public Offering in February 2019

On February 12, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) with the sale of 19,837,500 shares of common stock, including shares of common stock issued upon the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $16.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $291.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses.

In addition, in connection with the completion of the IPO, all of the Company’s outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock were automatically converted into 30,493,460 shares of common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred significant operating losses since its inception. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $455.1 million. From the Company’s inception through June 30, 2020, the Company has funded its operations primarily through equity and debt financings, including the Company’s IPO which closed on February 12, 2019. The Company raised $942.0 million from October 2017 through June 30, 2020 through Series A and Series B convertible preferred stock financings, a convertible note financing, its IPO, its Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5 below), and concurrent underwritten public offerings of its 5.00% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and common stock in May 2020. See Note 5 for additional information regarding the Credit Facility and the 2027 Notes. In addition, the Company received $12.8 million in cash in connection with the January 2018 acquisition of AA Biopharma Inc.

The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As a result, the Company will need to raise capital through equity offerings, debt financings and other capital sources, including potential collaborations, licenses and other similar arrangements. Management believes that it has sufficient working capital on hand to fund operations through at least the next twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in acquiring additional funding, that the Company’s projections of its future working capital needs will prove accurate, or that any additional funding would be sufficient to continue operations in future years.

COVID-19

The COVID-19 outbreak has caused significant business disruption around the globe. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and the impact on the Company’s clinical trials, employees and vendors. At this point, the degree to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations is uncertain. A prolonged outbreak could have a material and adverse impact on financial results and business operations of the Company, including the timing and ability of the Company to complete certain clinical trials and other efforts required to advance the development of its product candidates and raise additional capital. For example, the Company commenced enrolling patients for a Phase 1b clinical trial in PAH in the first quarter of 2020, and because the Company temporarily paused enrollment as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 viral pandemic, the Company now expects to report topline results from this trial in the second half of 2020. In addition, due to the challenges of enrolling patients posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company may experience delays in the commencement of and enrollment of patients in its planned Phase 2 clinical trial of GB002 in pulmonary arterial hypertension and planned Phase 2 clinical trial of GB004 in ulcerative colitis, as well as delays in reporting data results from its ongoing trials.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary, which are of a normal and recurring nature, for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and of the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 24, 2020. The results of operations for the interim period shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. The balance sheet at December 31, 2019, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements relate to the allocation of the 2027 Notes into liability and equity components, accrued research and development expenses, the valuation of preferred and common stock, the valuation of stock options and the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets resulting from net operating losses. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Convertible Senior Notes

In accounting for the issuance of the 2027 Notes, the Company separated the 2027 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of similar debt instruments that do not have associated convertible features. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the par value of the 2027 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the condition for equity classification. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2027 Notes.

The Company allocated the issuance costs incurred to the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes based on their relative fair values. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component were recorded as a reduction to the liability portion of the 2027 Notes and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2027 Notes. Issuance costs attributable to the equity component, representing the conversion option, were netted with the equity component in stockholders' equity.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade receivables and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than as reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consoli
