PART I—FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q

and the audited consolidated financial information and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 1, 2021.

This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements containing words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “possible,” “potentially,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Such statements constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You should read these statements carefully because they discuss future expectations, contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition, or state other “forward-looking” information, that are not statements of historical facts, nor are they guarantees or assurances of future performance. These forward-looking statements relate to our future plans, objectives, expectations, intentions and financial performance and the assumptions that underlie these statements. These

forward-looking

statements are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including but not limited to the risk factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form

10-K

and those “Risk Factors” discussed below in Part II, Item 1A. Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. These statements, like all statements in this Quarterly Report on Form

10-Q,

speak only as of their date. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our expectations and assumptions to change and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We caution investors that our business and financial performance are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties.

Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

(In thousands of U.S. dollars (“$”) and Renminbi (“RMB”) except for number of shares and per share data)

1. Organization and principal activities

Zai Lab Limited (the “Company”) was incorporated on March 28, 2013 in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands. The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) are focused on developing and commercializing therapies that address medical conditions with unmet medical needs including, in particular, oncology, autoimmune disorders and infectious diseases.

The Group’s principal operations and geographic markets are in mainland China (hereinafter referred to as “China”), Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Greater China”). The Group has a substantial presence in Greater China and the United States

2. Basis of presentation and consolidation and significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form

10-Q

and Article 10 of Regulation

S-X.

Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures necessary for a presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for such periods. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The December 31, 2020 condensed consolidated balance sheets data were derived from audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2020.

(b) Principles of consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances among the

Company

and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the period. Areas where management uses subjective judgment include, but are not limited to, estimating the useful lives of long-lived assets, estimating the current expected credit losses for financial assets, assessing the impairment of long-lived assets, discount rate of operating lease liabilities, revenue recognition, allocation of the research and development service expenses to the appropriate financial reporting period based on the progress of the research and development projects, share-based compensation expenses, recoverability of deferred tax assets and a lack of marketability discount of the ordinary shares issued in connection with collaboration and license arrangement (Note

). Management bases the estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

(d) Fair value measurements

The Group applies ASC topic 820 (“ASC 820”),

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

, in measuring fair value. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures to be provided on fair value measurement.

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

Table of Contents

Zai Lab Limited

Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

(In thousands of U.S. dollars (“$”) and Renminbi (“RMB”) except for number of shares and per share data)

ASC 820 describes three main approaches to measur

the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

Financial instruments of the Group primarily include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, short-term investments, accounts receivable, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable and other payables. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable and other payable approximated their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments, and the carrying value of restricted cash approximates its fair value based on the nature of the assessment of the ability to recover these amounts.

(e) Recent accounting pronouncements

Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU

2019-12,

Income Taxes (Topic 740):

Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes

. This update simplifies the accounting for income taxes as part of the FASB’s overall initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments include removal of certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740,

Income taxes

, and simplification in several other areas such as accounting for a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income. The update is effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods therein, and early adoption is permitted. Certain amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively or modified retrospectively, all other amendments should be applied prospectively.

Full details of the licenses and collaborative arrangements are included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As noted above, the Group has entered into various license and collaboration agreements with third party licensors to develop and commercialize product candidates. Based on the terms of these agreements, the Group is contingently obligated to make additional material payments upon the achievement of certain contractually defined milestones. Based on management’s evaluation of the progress of each project noted above, the licensors will be eligible to receive from the Group up to an aggregate of approximately

4,541,502

in future milestone payments upon the achievement of contractually specified development milestones, such as regulatory approval for the product candidates, which may be before the Group has commercialized the product or received any revenue from sales of such product candidate, which may never occur.

. Restricted net assets

The Group’s ability to pay dividends may depend on the Group receiving distributions of funds from its Chinese subsidiary. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the Group’s Chinese subsidiary only out of its retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the Group’s PRC subsidiary.

In accordance with the Company Law of the PRC, a domestic enterprise is required to provide statutory reserves of at least 10% of its annual

after-tax

profit until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A domestic enterprise is also required to provide discretionary surplus reserve, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, from the profits determined in accordance with the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. The Group’s Chinese subsidiary was established as domestic invested enterprise and therefore is subject to the above-mentioned restrictions on distributable profits.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, no appropriation to

statutory reserves was made because the Group’s Chinese subsidiary had substantial losses during such periods.

As a result of these PRC laws and regulations subject to the restrictions discussed above that require annual appropriations of 10% of

after-tax

income to be set aside, prior to payment of dividends, as general reserve fund, the Group’s Chinese subsidiary is restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Group.

Foreign exchange and other regulation

in China may further restrict the Group’s Chinese subsidiary from transferring funds to the Group in the form of dividends, loans and advances. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, amounts restricted are the

paid-in

capital of the Group’s Chinese subsidiaries, which amounted to $306,010 and $205,858, respectively.

. Commitments and Contingencies

(a) Purchase commitments

As of June 30, 2021, the Group’s commitments related to purchase of property and equipment contracted but not yet reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement were $28,191 and $49 which are expected to be incurred within one year and within one to two years, respectively.

(b) Contingencies

The Group is a party to or assignee of license and collaboration agreements that may require it to make future payments relating to milestone fees and royalties on future sales of licensed products (Note 1

. Subsequent Event

In July 2021, the Group made an equity investment in MacroGenics in a private placement with total contributions amounting to

$30,000 and obtained 958,467

newly issued common shares of MacroGenics at $31.30 per share.

In July and August 2021, the Group granted 11,701 share options to certain management and employees of the Group at exercise prices ranging from $144.61 to $178.37 per share under the 2017 Plan. These options granted have a contractual term of ten years and generally vest over a five-year period, with 20% of the awards vesting beginning on the anniversary date one year after the grant date.

In July and August 2021, 32,341 ordinary shares were authorized for grant to certain management and employees of the Group. One-fifth of the restricted shares will vest and be released from the restrictions on each yearly anniversary from the date of the agreement. Upon termination of the certain management’s service with the Group for any reason, any shares that are outstanding and not yet vested will be immediately forfeited.

In August 2021, the Group entered into a global discovery, development and commercialization collaboration with Schrödinger, Inc., or Schrödinger, pursuant to which the parties will jointly conduct a research program focused on a novel DNA damage repair program in the area of oncology. Following the selection of a development candidate, the Group will assume primary responsibility for global development, manufacturing and commercialization of the program.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

We are a commercial stage, biopharmaceutical company with a substantial presence in both Greater China and the United States. We are discovering, developing and commercializing innovative products that target medical conditions with unmet needs affecting patients in China and worldwide, particularly in the areas of oncology, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases. As of August 9, 2021, we have three commercialized products that have received marketing approval in one or more territories in Greater China and twelve programs in late-stage product development.

Since our inception, we have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from our operations. Substantially all of our losses have resulted from funding our research and development programs and general and administrative costs associated with our operations. Developing high quality product candidates requires a significant investment related to our research and development activities over a prolonged period of time, and a core part of our strategy is to continue making sustained investments in this area. Our ability to generate profits and to generate positive cash flow from operations over the next several years depends upon our ability to successfully market our current three commercial products ZEJULA, Optune and QINLOCK

, and our other product candidates that we are able to successfully commercialize. We expect to continue to incur substantial expenses related to our research and development activities. In particular, our licensing and collaboration agreements require us to make upfront payments upon our entry into such agreements and milestone payments upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones as well as tiered royalties based on the net sales of the licensed products. These upfront payments and milestone payments upon the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones are recorded in research and development expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and totaled $269.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. In addition, we expect to incur substantial costs related to the commercialization of our product candidates, in particular during the early launch phase.

Furthermore, as we pursue our strategy of growth and development, we anticipate that our financial results will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based upon the balance between the successful marketing of our commercial products and our significant research and development expenses. We cannot predict whether or when new products or new indications for marketed products will receive regulatory approval or, if any such approval is received, whether we will be able to successfully commercialize such product(s) and whether or when they may become profitable.

Recent Business Developments

On April 12, 2021, we achieved first-patient-in for the Phase 3 pivotal LUNAR trial.

On April 13, 2021, we announced in a joint press release with our partner, Novocure, an update regarding Novocure’s Phase 3 pivotal LUNAR trial of Tumor Treating Fields in stage

4 non-small cell

lung cancer (NSCLC) following platinum failure. Following a routine review of the study by an independent data monitoring committee (DMC), Novocure was informed that

the pre-specified interim

analysis for the LUNAR trial would be accelerated given the length of accrual and the number of events observed to date. The interim analysis included data from 210 patients accrued to the LUNAR trial through February 2021. After review of the interim analysis report, the DMC concluded that the LUNAR trial should continue with no evidence of increased systemic toxicity. On May 18, 2021, Novocure announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved its Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) supplement, reducing the enrollment requirement for its LUNAR trial to 276 patients with 12 months

follow-up.

In addition, in April 2021, we achieved

first-patient-in

for the LUNAR trial in Greater China.

On April 23, 2021, we announced the closing of a global offering of American depositary shares and ordinary shares, including the full exercise of the greenshoe option, for total gross proceeds to us of $857.5 million. This offering was the first ever dual-tranche offering on both Nasdaq and the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong.

On June 15, 2021, we announced that we entered into an exclusive collaboration and license agreement with MacroGenics, pursuant to which we agreed to collaboratively develop and commercialize up to four bispecific antibody-based molecules with MacroGenics based on the MacroGenics’ proprietary DART

and TRIDENT

multi-specific technology platforms. Under the agreement, each party agrees to contribute specified intellectual property to enable the research, development, manufacture and commercialization of up to four future CD3 or CD47-based bispecific molecules. We were granted exclusive rights in Greater China, Japan, and Korea for two programs and exclusive global rights for two other programs.

On August 4, 2021, we announced that we entered into a global discovery, development and commercialization collaboration with Schrödinger, pursuant to which we will jointly conduct a research program focused on a novel DNA damage repair program in the area of oncology. Schrödinger is a recognized leader in providing physics-based computational software platforms used in drug discovery. The research program will be conducted jointly by the scientific teams of our two companies. Following the selection of a development candidate, we will assume primary responsibility for global development, manufacturing and commercialization of the program.

Recent Regulatory Developments

PRC Medical Device Regulations

The sale and marketing of imported medical device products in China are subject to notifications (for Class I devices) or registrations (for Class II and III devices) with China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). We launched Optune in China in June 2020 after the NMPA approved Optune in May 2020 in combination with temozolomide for the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed GBM and also as a monotherapy for the treatment of patients with recurrent GBM. Optune is regulated as a Class III imported medical device in China, and we act as the Chinese legal agent for our collaboration partner, Novocure, who is the foreign marketing authorization holder (MAH) for Optune in China. We are preparing to submit to the NMPA a Marketing Authorization Application for Optune Lua for the treatment of unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic malignant pleural mesothelioma.

The Chinese State Council passed new Medical Device Regulations (State Council Order #739), or Order #739, to replace the existing Medical Device Regulations (State Council Order #680), or Order #680. Order #739 was published by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and became effective on June 1, 2021. Order #739 largely follows the legislative structure of Order #680. We, as the Chinese legal agent for Optune in China, are subject to the statutory compliance requirements under Order #739. The following updates from Order #739 we believe are the most relevant to our compliance obligations and our business operations in China:

•

hinese legal agent

. Under Order #739, foreign device MAHs will still need to appoint a Chinese legal entity to submit regulatory applications and correspond with regulatory authorities. Nevertheless, the local appointees may only need to play a secondary role to assist the foreign device MAHs in the performance of compliance obligations under Order #739.

Table of Contents

•

iabilities for

non-compliance

. Order #739 significantly increases MAH’s liabilities for

non-compliance.

Order #739 also introduces personal liability on the legal representatives, main responsible persons, directly responsible supervisors or other personnel of MAHs. While Order #680 does not differentiate the liability of local legal agents from the foreign device MAHs, Order #739 makes it clear that local appointees will assume a lesser degree of liability compared to the foreign device MAHs. If local appointees fail to perform the statutory responsibilities and obligations on behalf of the MAHs, they will be subject to administrative fines up to RMB 0.5 million, and their responsible personnel will only be subject to a five-year debarment. In comparison, foreign MAHs who refuse to fulfill the administrative penalties may be subject to a

ten-year

import ban.

•

AH system

. The MAH system will be rolled out nationwide. MAHs will be responsible for the safety and effectiveness of their products during the entire product life cycle. They must establish a quality management system and ensure its effectiveness, define and implement a post-approval study and risk control plan, conduct adverse event monitoring and

re-evaluation,

establish and implement the product tracing and recall system, and fulfill other statutory obligations imposed by the NMPA.

•

ncouraging innovations

. As a core theme of its drafting philosophy, Order #739 encourages innovations in medical device technologies and will continue to allow the “fast track approval process” to accelerate the product launch timeline for innovative devices. Under Order #739, imported medical devices that are

“first-in-class”

and have Chinese invention patent(s) covering their core technologies do not need to be approved outside of China before the NMPA’s marketing authorization.

•

linical evidence

. The NMPA will allow versatile clinical evidence to demonstrate product safety and effectiveness. Such evaluation can be based on clinical study data or analysis of clinical literature and clinical data on predicate devices.

•

xpanded access

. Expanded access to investigational devices will be made available for patients in the study sites upon ethics committee approval and the patients’ giving informed consent, provided that the investigational devices are used for critical, life-threatening diseases without an effective treatment method and can confer clinical benefits on patients based on medical judgment.

To implement Order #739, from March to June of 2021, the NMPA also published draft administrative regulations on the registration, manufacturing, distribution, Good Clinical Practices and

company-led

type tests for medical devices for public comment.

PRC Biosecurity Law

On April 15, 2021, the PRC Biosecurity Law took effect.

PRC Patent Law

On June 1, 2021, the fourth amendment to the PRC Patent Law took effect.

On July 3, 2021, the Implementing Measure to Early-Stage Resolution Mechanism for Pharmaceutical Patent Disputes (Tentative) (the “Measures”), jointly issued by the NMPA and the China National Intellectual Property Administration jointly, took effect. The Measures give practical guidance on the patent linkage system in China, where the drug originators are permitted to list on a public registration system certain patents that are relevant to approved drugs. Generic and biosimilar drug applicants must then make certifications when applying for drug approval in respect of the listed patents. Where the certification is a type IV certification which alleges the invalidity of the listed patents or alleges that the scope of the listed patents does not cover the generic or biosimilar drug that is the subject of the drug approval application, drug originators have an opportunity to pursue administrative or judicial litigation to determine patent infringement prior to commercial sale, and in the case of chemical generics, obtain a

9-month

approval stay on the chemical generic drug approval application. Upon successful litigation prior to the approval of the generic or biosimilar drug, the drug originators may delay the grant of the approval of a chemical generic drug until after patent expiry or have the approval of a biosimilar drug be conditioned upon patent expiry.

PRC Data Security and Cybersecurity

In June 2021, China’s top legislative body, the National People’s Congress, passed the Data Security Law (DSL). Being the first comprehensive data security legislation in China, the DSL will take effect on September 1, 2021, and it covers a wide range of issues relating to the collection, storage, processing, use, provision, transaction and publication of data. The DSL provides that the data processing activities must be conducted based on “data classification and hierarchical protection system” for the purpose of data protection. The DSL has extraterritorial effect and it applies to any data processing activities outside China if such activities would be detrimental to the national security or public interest of China or the interests of Chinese citizens or organizations.

In July 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China published a revised draft of the Measures on Cybersecurity Review, expanding the cybersecurity review to data processing operators in possession of personal information of over 1 million users if the operators intend to list their securities in a foreign country.

by Chinese cyberspace regulators are also required to store in China personal information generated or collected in China, and to pass a security assessment administered by Chinese cyberspace regulators for any export of such personal information. Lastly, the draft contains proposals for significant fines for serious violations of up to RMB 50 million or 5% of annual revenues from the prior year.

Factors Affecting our Results of Operations

Research and Development Expenses

We believe our ability to successfully develop product candidates will be the primary factor affecting our long-term competitiveness, as well as our future growth and development. Developing high quality product candidates requires a significant investment of resources over a prolonged period of time, and a core part of our strategy is to continue making sustained investments in this area. As a result of this commitment, our pipeline of product candidates has been steadily advancing and expanding, with twelve late-stage clinical product candidates being investigated as of June 30, 2021.

To date, we have financed our activities primarily through private placements, our initial public offering on Nasdaq in September 2017, a secondary listing on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong and multiple

follow-on

offerings. Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since inception. The net cash used in our operating activities was $235.3 million and $92.3 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. We expect our expenditures to increase significantly in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance the clinical development of our twelve late-stage clinical product candidates and continue research and development of our clinical and

pre-clinical-

stage product candidates and initiate additional clinical trials of, and seek regulatory approval for, these and other future product candidates. These expenditures include:

•

expenses incurred for payments to contract research organizations (“CROs”), contract manufacture organizations (“CMOs”), investigators and clinical trial sites that conduct our clinical studies;

•

employee compensation related expenses, including salaries, benefits and equity compensation expenses;

•

expenses for licensors;

•

the cost of acquiring, developing and manufacturing clinical study materials;

•

facilities, depreciation and other expenses, which include office leases and other overhead expenses;

•

costs associated with

pre-clinical

activities and regulatory operations;

•

expenses associated with the construction and maintenance of our manufacturing facilities; and

•

costs associated with operating as a public company.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel compensation and related costs, including share-based compensation for commercial and administrative personnel. Other selling, general and administrative expenses include product distribution and promotion costs, professional service fees for legal, intellectual property, consulting, auditing and tax services as well as other direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, insurance and other supplies used in selling, general and administrative activities. We anticipate that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods to support increases in our commercial and research and development activities and as we continue to commercialize, develop, and manufacture our products and assets. These increases will likely include increased headcount, increased share compensation charges, increased product distribution and promotion costs, expanded infrastructure and increased costs for insurance. We also incur increased legal, compliance, accounting and investor and public relations expenses associated with being a public company.

Our Ability to Commercialize Our Product Candidates

As of June 30, 2021, twelve of our product candidates are in late-stage clinical development and various others are in clinical and

pre-clinical

development in China and the United States. Our ability to generate revenue from our product candidates is dependent on our receipt of regulatory approvals for and successful commercialization of such products, which may never occur. Certain of our product candidates may require additional

pre-clinical

and/or clinical development, regulatory approvals in multiple jurisdictions, manufacturing supply, substantial investment and significant marketing efforts before we generate any revenue from product sales.

Table of Contents

Our License Arrangements

Our results of operations have been, and we expect them to continue to be, affected by our licensing, collaboration and development agreements. We are required to make upfront payments upon our entry into such agreements and milestone payments upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones for the relevant products under these agreements as well as tiered royalties based on the net sales of the licensed products. These upfront payments and milestone payments upon the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones are recorded in research and development expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and totaled $269.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and $98.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The upfront payments and milestone payments are recorded in research and development expense and was $51.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and $42.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $30.7 million to $54.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $23.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in general and administrative expenses included the following:

•

$16.0 million for increased personnel compensation and related costs which was primarily attributable to increased commercial and administrative personnel costs, due to hiring of more personnel during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and the grants of new share options and vesting of restricted shares to certain employees;

•

$2.3 million for increased professional service fee, mainly attributable to our increased legal, compliance, accounting and investor and public relations expenses associated with being a public company; and

•

$12.4 million for increased other costs, mainly including selling, rental, and administrative expenses primary attributable to the commercial operation in Hong Kong and China.

Interest Income

Interest income decreased by $1.0 million, to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, from $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 primary due to the decrease of short-term investments balance.

Interest Expenses

Interest expenses is nil for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as all the short-term borrowings were repaid in 2020.

Share of loss from equity method investment

In June 2017, we entered into an agreement with three

third-parties

to launch JING Medicine Technology (Shanghai) Ltd. (“JING”), an entity which provides services for product discovery and development, consultation and transfer of pharmaceutical technology. We recorded loss of $0.4 million and $0.3 million for its portion of JING’s net loss for the three months June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense), net increased by $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily as a result of an increase in foreign exchange gain and partially offset by a decrease in governmental subsidies.

Net Loss Attributable to Ordinary Shareholders

As a result of the foregoing, we had net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of $163.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of $80.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experiences and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from our expectations as a result of changes in our estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates.

Table of Contents

The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgments and other uncertainties affecting application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors that should be considered when reviewing our financial statements. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue recognition

In 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606 (“ASC 606”),

Revenue

from

Contracts

with

Customers,

in recognition of revenue. Under ASC 606, we recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that we determine are within the scope of ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration, if any; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. We only apply the

five-step

model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception, we review the contract to determine which performance obligations we must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. We recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to each performance obligation when that performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied.

Our revenue is from product sales. We recognize revenue from product sales when we have satisfied the performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customers. Control of the product generally transfers to the customers when the delivery is made and when title and risk of loss transfers to the customers. Cost of sales mainly consists of the acquisition cost of products and royalty fees.

We have applied the practical expedients under ASC 606 with regard to assessment of financing components and concluded that there is no significant financing component given that the period between delivery of goods and payment is generally one year or less. We have generated product sales revenue since 2018. Our product revenues were primarily generated from the sale of ZEJULA (niraparib), Optune (Tumor Treating Fields) and QINLOCK (ripretinib) to customers.

In China, we sell the products to distributors, who ultimately sell the products to healthcare providers. Based on the nature of the arrangements, the performance obligations are satisfied upon the product’s delivery to distributors. Rebates are offered to distributors, consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. The estimated amount of unpaid or unbilled rebates, if any, is recorded as a reduction of revenue. Estimated rebates are determined based on contracted rates, sales volumes and level of distributor inventories. We regularly review the information related to these estimates and adjust the amount accordingly.

In Hong Kong, we sell the products to customers, which are typically healthcare providers such as oncology centers. We utilize a third party for warehousing services. Based on the nature of the arrangement, we have determined that we are a principal in the transaction since we are primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the products to the customers, maintain inventory risk until delivery to the customers and have latitude in establishing the price. Revenue is recognized at the amount to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for the sale of the products, which is the sales price agreed with the customers. Consideration paid to the third party is recognized in operating expenses.

We did not recognize any contract assets and contract liabilities as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Share-Based Compensation

We grant share options and

non-vested

restricted shares to eligible employees, management and directors and account for these

share-based

awards in accordance with ASC 718,

Compensation-Stock

Compensatio

. Employees’ share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the awards and recognized as expenses (1) immediately at grant date if no vesting conditions are required; or (2) using graded vesting method over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. To the extent the required vesting conditions are not met resulting in the forfeiture of the share-based awards, previously recognized compensation expense relating to those awards are reversed. We determined the fair value of the stock options granted to employees using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

We also grant share options to eligible

non-employees

and account for these

share-based

awards in accordance with ASC 718,

Compensation- Stock

Compensation

Non-employees’

share-based awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the awards and recognized as expenses (1) immediately at grant date if no vesting conditions are required; or (2) using graded vesting method over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. All transactions in which goods or services are received in exchange for equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. To the extent the required vesting conditions are not met resulting in the forfeiture of the share-based awards, previously recognized compensation expense relating to those awards are reversed. We determined the fair value of the stock options granted to

non-employees

using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

Table of Contents

Fair Value Measurements

We apply ASC Topic 820,

Fair

Value

Measurements

and

Discl

sure

, or ASC 820, in measuring fair value. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures to be provided on fair value measurement.

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

ASC 820 describes three main approaches, for example, to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach, (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.

Financial instruments of our company primarily include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, short-term investment, accounts receivable, prepayments and other current assets, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and other current liabilities. As of each reporting date, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investment, accounts receivable, prepayments and other current assets, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximated their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments, and the carrying value of restricted cash approximates its fair value based on the nature of and the assessment of the ability to recover these amounts.

Income Taxes

Current income taxes are provided on the basis of net income for financial reporting purposes, adjusted for income and expense items which are not assessable or deductible for income tax purposes, in accordance with the regulations of the relevant tax jurisdictions. We follow the liability method of accounting for income taxes.

Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities by applying enacted statutory tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rate is recognized in our consolidated financial statements in the period of change.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, we recognize in our financial statements the benefit of a tax position if the tax position is “more likely than not” to prevail based on the facts and technical merits of the position. Tax positions that meet the “more likely than not” recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement. We estimate our liability for unrecognized tax benefits which are periodically assessed and may be affected by changing interpretations of laws, rulings by tax authorities, changes and/or developments with respect to tax audits, and expiration of the statute of limitations. The ultimate outcome for a particular tax position may not be determined with certainty prior to the conclusion of a tax audit and, in some cases, appeal or litigation process.

We consider positive and negative evidence when determining whether some portion or all of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry-forward periods, our historical results of operations, and our tax planning strategies. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based upon the level of our historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, we believe it is more likely than not that we will not realize the deferred tax assets resulted from the tax loss carried forward in the future periods.

The actual benefits ultimately realized may differ from our estimates. As each audit is concluded, adjustments, if any, are recorded in our financial statements in the period in which the audit is concluded. Additionally, in future periods, changes in facts, circumstances and new information may require us to adjust the recognition and measurement estimates with regard to individual tax positions. Changes in recognition and measurement estimates are recognized in the period in which the changes occur. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our activities primarily through private placements, our September 2017 initial public offering on the Nasdaq stock exchange, our September 2020 secondary listing on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong and multiple

follow-on

offerings. Through June 30, 2021, we have raised approximately $164.6 million in private equity financing and approximately $2,462.7 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting commissions and the offering expenses payable by us in our initial public offering, subsequent follow-on offerings, and our secondary listing. Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since inception. The net cash used in our operating activities was $235.3 million and $92.3 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As of June 30, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $1,767.3 million. Our expenditures as a company principally focused on research and development, are largely discretionary and as such our current losses and cash used in operations do not present immediate going concern issues. Based on our current operating plan, we expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of August 9, 2021, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures requirements for at least the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report are issued. However, in order to bring to fruition our research and development objectives, we will ultimately need additional funding sources and there can be no assurances that they will be made available.

The following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:


	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2021			2020

Net cash used in operating activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, our operating activities used $235.3 million of cash, which resulted principally from our net loss of $396.2 million, adjusted for

non-cash

charges of $85.9 million, and cash provided in our operating assets and liabilities of $75.0 million. Our net

non-cash

charges during the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily consisted of $62.3 million

non-cash

research and development expenses, a $3.0 million depreciation expense, a $17.6 million

share-based

compensation expense and a $2.8 million

non-cash

lease expense.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $737.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to the proceeds from maturity of short-term investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $820.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $281.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the issuance of ADSs in our

follow-on

offering during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk including foreign exchange risk, credit risk, cash flow interest rate risk and liquidity risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Renminbi, or RMB, is not a freely convertible currency. The State Administration of Foreign Exchange, under the authority of the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”), controls the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange Trading System market. The cash and cash equivalents of our company included aggregated amounts of RMB 234.0 million and RMB 155.9 million, which were denominated in RMB, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, representing 2% and 5% of the cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Our business mainly operates in China with a significant portion of our transactions settled in RMB, and our financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. We do not believe that we currently have any significant direct foreign exchange risk and have not used any derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to such risk. Although, in general, our exposure to foreign exchange risks should be limited, the value of your investment in our ADSs will be affected by the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the RMB because the value of our business is effectively denominated in RMBs, while ADSs will be traded in U.S. dollars.

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. The conversion of RMB into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the PBOC. On July 21, 2005, China changed its

decade-old

policy of pegging the value of the RMB to the U.S. dollar. Under the revised policy, the RMB is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. This change in policy resulted in a more than 20% appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar in the following three years. Between July 2008 and June 2010, this appreciation halted, and the exchange rate between the RMB and U.S. dollar remained within a narrow band. In June 2010, the PBOC announced that China’s government would increase the flexibility of the exchange rate, and thereafter allowed the RMB to appreciate slowly against the U.S. dollar within the narrow band fixed by the PBOC. However, in August 2015, the PBOC significantly devalued the RMB.

A significant portion of our cash is kept in Hong Kong dollars (HK dollars) as well as U.S. dollars. The value of our ADSs will, therefore, be affected by the foreign exchange rates between U.S. dollars, HK dollars and the RMB. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars or HK dollars into RMB for our operations or if any of our arrangements with other parties are denominated in U.S. dollars or HK dollars and need to be converted into RMB, appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar or the HK dollar would have an adverse effect on the RMB amount we receive from the conversion. Conversely, if we decide to convert RMB into U.S. dollars or HK dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our ordinary shares or ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar or the HK dollar against the RMB would have a negative effect on the conversion amounts available to us.

Since 1983, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has pegged the HK dollar to the U.S. dollar at the rate of approximately HK$7.80 to US$1.00. However, there is no assurance that the HK dollar will continue to be pegged to the U.S. dollar or that the HK dollar conversion rate will remain at HK$7.80 to US$1.00. If the HK dollar conversion rate against the U.S. dollar changes and the value of the HK dollar depreciates against the U.S. dollar, our Group’s assets denominated in HK dollars will be adversely affected. Additionally, if the HKMA were to repeg the HK dollar to, for example, the RMB rather than the U.S. dollar, or otherwise restrict the conversion of HK dollars into other currencies, then our Group’s assets denominated in HK dollars will be adversely affected.

Table of Contents

Credit Risk

Our credit risk is primarily attributable to the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and

short-term

investment represent the maximum amount of loss due to credit risk. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were held by major financial institutions located in China and international financial institutions outside of China which we believe are of high credit quality, and we will continually monitor the credit worthiness of these financial institutions.

Inflation

In recent years, China has not experienced significant inflation, and thus inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations. Although we have not been materially affected by inflation in the past, we can provide no assurance that we will not be affected in the future by higher rates of inflation in China.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Evaluation of our Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of June 30, 2021, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and

15d-15(e)

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded based upon the evaluation described above that, as of June 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such item is defined in Rules

13a-15(f)

and

15d-15(f)

promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We may be, from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of these and other claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or on our results of operations. We are not currently a party to, nor is our property the subject of, any actual or threatened material legal or administrative proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021, except as follows:

Changes in United States and China relations, as well as relations with other countries, and/or regulations may adversely impact our business, our operating results, our ability to raise capital and the market price of our ordinary shares and/or our ADSs.

The U.S. government, including the SEC, has made statements and taken certain actions that led to changes to United States and international relations, and will impact companies with connections to the United States or China, including imposing several rounds of tariffs affecting certain products manufactured in China, imposing certain sanctions and restrictions in relation to China and issuing statements indicating enhanced review of companies with significant China-based operations. It is unknown whether and to what extent new legislation, executive orders, tariffs, laws or regulations will be adopted, or the effect that any such actions would have on companies with significant connections to the U.S. or to China, our industry or on us. We conduct preclinical and clinical activities and have business operations both in the United States and China. Any unfavorable government policies on cross-border relations and/or international trade, including increased scrutiny on companies with significant China-based operations, capital controls or tariffs, may affect the competitive position of our drug products, the hiring of scientists and other research and development personnel, the demand for our drug products, the import or export of raw materials in relation to drug development, our ability to raise capital, the market price of our ordinary shares and/or our ADSs or prevent us from selling our drug products in certain countries.

Table of Contents

Furthermore, the SEC has issued statements primarily focused on companies with significant China-based operations, such as us. For example, on July 30, 2021, Gary Gensler, Chairman of the SEC, issued a Statement on Investor Protection Related to Recent Developments in China, pursuant to which Chairman Gensler stated that he has asked the SEC staff to engage in targeted additional reviews of filings for companies with significant China-based operations. The statement also addressed risks inherent in companies with a Variable Interest Entity, or a VIE structure. We do not have a VIE structure and are not in an industry that is subject to foreign ownership limitations by China. Further, we believe that we have robust disclosures relating to our operations in China, including the relevant risks noted in Chairman Gensler’s statement. However, it is possible that the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC may be subject to enhanced review by the SEC and this additional scrutiny could affect our ability to effectively raise capital in the United States.

In response to the SEC’s July 30 statement, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) announced on August 1, 2021, that “[i]t is our belief that Chinese and U.S. regulators shall continue to enhance communication with the principle of mutual respect and cooperation, and properly address the issues related to the supervision of China-based companies listed in the U.S. so as to form stable policy expectations and create benign rules framework for the market.” While the CSRC will continue to collaborate “closely with different stakeholders including investors, companies, and relevant authorities to further promote transparency and certainty of policies and implementing measures,” it emphasized that it “has always been open to companies’ choices to list their securities on international or domestic markets in compliance with relevant laws and regulations.”

If any new legislation, executive orders, tariffs, laws and/or regulations are implemented, if existing trade agreements are renegotiated or if the U.S. or Chinese governments take retaliatory actions due to the recent U.S.-China tension, such changes could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, our ability to raise capital and the market price of our ordinary shares and/or our ADSs.

Compliance with China’s new Data Security Law, Measures on Cybersecurity Review (revised draft for public consultation), Personal Information Protection Law (second draft for consultation), regulations and guidelines relating to the multi-level protection scheme and any other future laws and regulations may entail significant expenses and could materially affect our business.

China has implemented or will implement rules and is considering a number of additional proposals relating to data protection. China’s new Data Security Law promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China in June 2021, or the Data Security Law, will take effect in September 2021. The Data Security Law provides that the data processing activities must be conducted based on “data classification and hierarchical protection system” for the purpose of data protection and prohibits entities in China from transferring data stored in China to foreign law enforcement agencies or judicial authorities without prior approval by the Chinese government. As the Data Security Law has not yet come into effect, we may need to make adjustments to our data processing practices to comply with this law.

Additionally, China’s Cyber Security Law, requires companies to take certain organizational, technical and administrative measures and other necessary measures to ensure the security of their networks and data stored on their networks. Specifically, the Cyber Security Law provides that China adopt a multi-level protection scheme (MLPS), under which network operators are required to perform obligations of security protection to ensure that the network is free from interference, disruption or unauthorized access, and prevent network data from being disclosed, stolen or tampered. Under the MLPS, entities operating information systems must have a thorough assessment of the risks and the conditions of their information and network systems to determine the level to which the entity’s information and network systems belong—from the lowest Level 1 to the highest Level 5 pursuant to the Measures for the Graded Protection and the Guidelines for Grading of Classified Protection of Cyber Security. The grading result will determine the set of security protection obligations that entities must comply with. Entities classified as Level 2 or above should report the grade to the relevant government authority for examination and approval.

Recently, the Cyberspace Administration of China has taken action against several Chinese internet companies in connection with their initial public offerings on U.S. securities exchanges, for alleged national security risks and improper collection and use of the personal information of Chinese data subjects. According to the official announcement, the action was initiated based on the National Security Law, the Cyber Security Law and the Measures on Cybersecurity Review, which are aimed at “preventing national data security risks, maintaining national security and safeguarding public interests.” On July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China published a revised draft of the Measures on Cybersecurity Review, expanding the cybersecurity review to data processing operators in possession of personal information of over 1 million users if the operators intend to list their securities in a foreign country.

It is unclear at the present time how widespread the cybersecurity review requirement and the enforcement action will be and what effect they will have on the life sciences sector generally and the Company in particular. China’s regulators may impose penalties for

non-compliance

ranging from fines or suspension of operations, and this could lead to us delisting from the U.S. stock market.

Also, recently, the National People’s Congress released the second consultation draft of the Personal Information Protection Law. The draft proposes a comprehensive set of data privacy and protection requirements that apply to the processing of personal information and expands data protection compliance obligations to cover the processing of personal information of persons by organizations and individuals in China, and the processing of personal information of persons in China outside of China if such processing is for purposes of providing products and services to, or analyzing and evaluating the behavior of, persons in China. The draft also proposes that critical information infrastructure operators and personal information processing entities who process personal information meeting a volume threshold to-be-set by Chinese cyberspace regulators are also required to store in China personal information generated or collected in China, and to pass a security assessment administered by Chinese cyberspace regulators for any export of such personal information. Lastly, the draft contains proposals for significant fines for serious violations of up to RMB 50 million or 5% of annual revenues from the prior year.

Table of Contents

Interpretation, application and enforcement of these laws, rules and regulations evolve from time to time and their scope may continually change, through new legislation, amendments to existing legislation and changes in enforcement. Compliance with the Cyber Security Law and the Data Security Law could significantly increase the cost to us of providing our service offerings, require significant changes to our operations or even prevent us from providing certain service offerings in jurisdictions in which we currently operate or in which we may operate in the future. Despite our efforts to comply with applicable laws, regulations and other obligations relating to privacy, data protection and information security, it is possible that our practices, offerings or platform could fail to meet all of the requirements imposed on us by the Cyber Security Law, the Data Security Law and/or related implementing regulations. Any failure on our part to comply with such law or regulations or any other obligations relating to privacy, data protection or information security, or any compromise of security that results in unauthorized access, use or release of personally identifiable information or other data, or the perception or allegation that any of the foregoing types of failure or compromise has occurred, could damage our reputation, discourage new and existing counterparties from contracting with us or result in investigations, fines, suspension or other penalties by Chinese government authorities and private claims or litigation, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Even if our practices are not subject to legal challenge, the perception of privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may harm our reputation and brand and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the legal uncertainty created by the Data Security Law and the recent Chinese government actions could materially adversely affect our ability, on favorable terms, to raise capital, including engaging in

follow-on

offerings of our securities in the U.S. market or the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong.

The audit report included in our periodic reports are prepared by an auditor who is not inspected by the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB, and as such, you are deprived of the benefits of such inspection, we may be subject to additional Nasdaq listing criteria or other penalties and our ADSs may be delisted from the U.S. stock market.

Auditors of companies that are registered with the SEC and traded publicly in the United States, including the independent registered public accounting firm of our company, must be registered with the PCAOB, and are required by the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess their compliance with the laws of the United States and professional standards. Because a substantial portion of our operations are within China, a jurisdiction where the PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the Chinese authorities, our auditor is not currently inspected by the PCAOB.

Inspections of auditors conducted by the PCAOB outside China have at times identified deficiencies in those auditors’ audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating our auditor’s audits and its quality control procedures. As a result, investors are deprived of the benefits of PCAOB inspections and may lose confidence in our reported financial information and procedures and the quality of our financial statements.

As part of a continued regulatory focus in the United States on access to audit and other information currently protected by national law, in particular China’s, in June 2019, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced bills in both houses of the U.S. Congress, which if passed, would require the SEC to maintain a list of issuers for which PCAOB is not able to inspect or investigate the audit work performed by a foreign public accounting firm completely. The proposed Ensuring Quality Information and Transparency for Abroad-Based Listings on Our Exchanges Act prescribes increased disclosure requirements for these issuers and, beginning in 2025, the delisting from U.S. national securities exchanges, such as the Nasdaq, of issuers included on the SEC’s list for three consecutive years. It is unclear if this proposed legislation will be enacted.

Furthermore, there have been recent deliberations within the U.S. government regarding potentially limiting or restricting China-based companies from accessing U.S. capital markets. On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (HFCA Act), which includes requirements for the SEC to identify issuers whose audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a restriction imposed by

a non-U.S. authority

in the auditor’s local jurisdiction and to prohibit the securities of such issuers that have has three consecutive

non-inspection

years from being traded on U.S. national securities exchanges such as the Nasdaq. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the HFCA Act on December 2, 2020, and the HFCA Act was signed into law on December 18, 2020. On May 13, 2021, the PCAOB issued proposed PCAOB Rule 6100 Board Determinations under the HFCA Act for public comment. The proposed rule provides a framework for making determinations as to whether PCAOB is unable to inspect an audit firm in a foreign jurisdiction, including the timing, factors, bases, publication and revocation or modification of such determinations, and provides that such determinations may be made on a jurisdiction-wide basis in a consistent manner applicable to all firms headquartered in the jurisdiction.

Additionally, in July 2020, the U.S. President’s Working Group on Financial Markets issued recommendations for actions that can be taken by the executive branch, the SEC, the PCAOB or other federal agencies and departments with respect to Chinese companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges and their audit firms, in an effort to protect investors in the United States. In response, on November 23, 2020, the SEC issued guidance highlighting certain risks (and their implications to U.S. investors) associated with investments in China-based issuers and summarizing enhanced disclosures the SEC recommends China-based issuers make regarding such risks.

On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (AHFCA Act), which amends the requirements of the HFCA Act to require that the SEC identify issuers whose audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a restriction imposed by any

non-U.S.

authority and to prohibit the securities of such issuers that have had two consecutive

non-inspection

years from being traded on U.S. national securities exchanges such as the Nasdaq.

Under the HFCA Act (and, if passed, the AHFCA Act), our securities may be prohibited from trading on the Nasdaq or other U.S. stock exchanges if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years (or, if the AHFCA Act is passed, two consecutive years), and this ultimately could result in our ADSs being delisted which would materially adversely affect the Company.

Table of Contents

Additionally, the Nasdaq has proposed adopting additional listing criteria applicable to companies that primarily operate in jurisdictions where local regulators impose secrecy laws, national security laws or other laws that restrict U.S. regulators from accessing information relating to the issuer, or a Restrictive Market. Under the proposed rule, whether a jurisdiction permits PCAOB inspection would be a factor in determining whether a jurisdiction is deemed by the Nasdaq to be a Restrictive Market. If the Nasdaq adopts this rule, China will likely be determined to be a Restrictive Market and, as a result, the Nasdaq may impose on us additional listing criteria or deny continued listing of our securities on the Nasdaq.

There can be no assurance that we or our auditor will be able to comply with requirements imposed by Nasdaq or the U.S. regulators. We are evaluating additional business processes and control changes with the goal of meeting the requirements of the HFCA Act. However, any business processes and control changes that we may implement may not be sufficient or may take time for us to implement and they ultimately may not be successful. We may also be subject to enforcement under the HFCA Act, the rules implementing the act that may be adopted by the SEC, and any other similar legislation that may be enacted into law or executive orders that may be adopted in the future. Although we are committed to complying with the rules and regulations applicable to listed companies in the United States, we are currently unable to predict the potential impact on our listed status by the rules that may be adopted by the SEC under the HFCA Act (or, if passed, the AHFCA Act). Delisting of our ADSs would force holders of our ADSs to sell their ADSs or convert them into our ordinary shares. Although our ordinary shares are listed in Hong Kong, investors may face difficulties in converting their ADSs into ordinary shares and migrating the ordinary shares to Hong Kong or may incur increased costs or suffer losses in order to do so. The market price of our ADSs could be materially adversely affected as a result of anticipated negative impacts of these rules and executive, regulatory or legislative actions upon, as well as negative investor sentiment towards, companies with significant operations in China that are listed in the United States, regardless of whether these rules and executive, regulatory or legislative actions are implemented and regardless of our actual operating performance. Failure to adopt effective contingency plans may also have a material adverse impact on our business and the price of our ADSs and ordinary shares.

China’s economic, political and social conditions, as well as governmental policies or regulatory actions, could affect the business environment and financial markets in China, our ability to operate our business, our liquidity and our access to capital.

Substantially all of our operations (and all of our commercial operations) are conducted in China. Accordingly, our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by economic, political, legal and social conditions in China as well as China’s economic, political, legal and social conditions in relation to the rest of the world. China’s economy differs from the economies of developed countries in many respects, including with respect to the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, and control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. While China’s economy has experienced significant growth over the past 40 years, growth has been uneven across different regions and among various economic sectors of China. China’s government has implemented various measures to encourage economic development, data protection and allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall economy in China but may have a negative effect on us. Our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control, perceived government interference and/or changes in tax, cyber and data security, capital investments, cross-border transaction and other regulations that are currently or may in the future be applicable to us. Recently, Chinese regulators have announced regulatory actions aimed at providing China’s government with greater oversight over certain sectors of China’s economy, including the

for-profit

education sector and technology platforms that have a quantitatively significant number of users located in China. Although the biotech industry is already highly regulated in China and while there has been no indication to date that such actions or oversight would apply to companies that are similarly situated as us and that are pursuing similar portfolios of drug products and therapies as us, China’s government may in the future take regulatory actions that materially adversely affect the business environment and financial markets in China as they relate to us, our ability to operate our business, our liquidity and our access to capital.

The uncertainties in the China legal system could materially and adversely affect us.

On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to enhance its enforcement against illegal activities in the securities markets and promote the high-quality development of the capital markets, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of

law-enforcement

and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the Chinese securities laws. Since this document is relatively new, uncertainties exist in relation to how soon legislative or administrative regulation-making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on companies like us.

It is especially difficult for us to accurately predict the potential impact to the Company of new legal requirements in China because the China legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions under the civil law system may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. In 1979, the Chinese government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past four decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system, and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, the China legal system is based on written statutes and prior court decisions have limited value as precedents. Since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the China legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules may not be uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties. These uncertainties may affect our judgment on the relevance of legal requirements and our ability to enforce our contractual rights or tort claims. In addition, the regulatory uncertainties may be exploited through unmerited or frivolous legal actions or threats in attempts to extract payments or benefits from us. Furthermore, the China legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all and may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of any of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. In addition, any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.
