On the partnership front, we are proud to announce that with the option of our second neuro map in the Roche and Genentech collaboration, we’ve achieved over $500 million in upfront and milestone payments from our partners to date as we continue to deliver novel insights and advance programs for some of the toughest disease areas,” said Chris Gibson, Co-Founder and CEO of Recursion. “This is only the beginning of the returns we expect to see on the investment in our platform. With a strong cash runway through the end of 2027, we look forward to delivering on our pipeline and proving that building an end-to-end AI-enabled platform—combining massive proprietary datasets with industry-leading supercomputing capabilities and sophisticated AI models—is the critical infrastructure we need to realize real change in our industry.” Summary of Business Highlights Portfolio - Internal and Partnered Programs “Our progress this quarter underscores the power of translating the Recursion OS into meaningful pipeline momentum,” said Najat Khan, Chief R&D and Chief Commercial Officer of Recursion. “We continued to advance our clinical programs, with REC-4881 in the TUPELO study moving toward additional data later this year. We also progressed REC-617 into its first combination study and nominated REC-7735 as a new development candidate. On the partnered side, the delivery of our first-in-kind microglia map with Roche and Genentech highlights how phenomics can open new frontiers in neuroscience and other complex disease areas. These are the kinds of bold but pragmatic steps — in our own programs and through collaborations — that will be essential as we work to turn our platform insights into transformative medicines for patients.” Internal Pipeline Updates: REC-617 (CDK7): Recursion announced progress in its ELUCIDATE Phase 1/2 trial evaluating REC-617, a precision-designed oral CDK7 inhibitor. The monotherapy dose-escalation study established the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) at 10 mg once-daily, demonstrating a manageable safety profile and preliminary anti-tumor activity consistent with the December 2024 update.As of September 29, 2025, 29 heavily pre-treated patients with advanced solid tumors had received REC-617 across six dose levels. Treatment was generally well tolerated, with the most common dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) being nausea and thrombocytopenia. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 27.6% of patients (n=8), with no Grade 4/5 TRAEs reported. Only 6.9% (n=2) discontinued due to a TRAE. Importantly, REC-617 demonstrated rates of GI-related toxicities consistent with best-in-class potential. Specifically, common GI toxicities with REC-617 treatment were diarrhea (69%), nausea (41%), and vomiting (28%). Toxicities reported for samuraciclib treatment also included diarrhea (82%), nausea (77%), and vomiting (80%) (Coombes et al, 2023).REC-617 has shown early anti-tumor activity, including one confirmed partial response and five cases of stable disease. Pharmacokinetic data support dose-proportional exposure, rapid absorption, and a short half-life (~5 hours), in line with its design as a selective, reversible CDK7 inhibitor.The ELUCIDATE study has now expanded into 2L+ platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC), with a Phase 2 monotherapy cohort ongoing and a Phase 1 combination arm initiated. Combination regimens include bevacizumab plus paclitaxel or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD). Recursion is also leveraging Recursion OS insights to explore additional indications and dosing regimens for expansion cohorts. REC-7735 (PI3Kα H1047R): Recursion announced progress on REC-7735, with nomination as a Development Candidate and IND-enabling studies now underway. REC-7735 is a precision-designed PI3K⍺ H1047R inhibitor generated using the Recursion OS. In preclinical studies, REC-7735 demonstrated significant tumor regressions at low doses, outperforming approved agents, while maintaining high selectivity (>100-fold) over wild-type PI3K⍺ to reduce the risk of dose-limiting hyperglycemia.With a differentiated preclinical efficacy and tolerability profile, REC-7735 has the potential to be a best-in-class PI3K⍺ H1047R inhibitor for breast and other solid tumors harboring this mutation. Upcoming Milestones: REC-4881 (MEK1/2): Additional data in FAP from the Phase 2 TUPELO study expected in December 2025REC-1245 (RBM39): Early Phase 1 safety and PK monotherapy data expected in 1H26REC-3565 (MALT1): Early Phase 1 safety and PK monotherapy data expected in 1H27REC-102 (ENPP1): Potential Phase 1 initiation expected in 2H26REC-7735 (PI3Kα H1047R): Potential Phase 1 initiation expected in 2H26Recursion is well on track for over $100 million in milestone payments by end of 2026 Programs are advancing towards potential development candidate designation over the next 12 monthsMultiple neuroscience target validation programs advancing by leveraging the Recursion OS Partnered Discovery Updates: With the acceptance of the second neuro map and the $30 million milestone from Roche and Genentech, Recursion has now achieved more than $500 million in upfront and milestone payments from its partners. This milestone places Recursion among a small group of pre-commercial biotechnology companies to achieve such scale, underscoring the strength of its partnership strategy. These collaborations not only support the maintenance and expansion of the Recursion OS, but also provide access to insights from leading biopharma companies and the potential for future milestone payments exceeding $10 billion, as well as royalties across indications Recursion may not pursue independently. Roche and Genentech: Recursion announced that it has achieved a second $30 million milestone from its partner, Roche and Genentech. The payment follows the acceptance of a novel whole-genome phenotypic map ("phenomap") of microglial cells, which are critical for brain health and implicated in a wide range of neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases. The milestone is part of a larger ongoing 10+ year collaboration to discover novel targets and develop potential therapeutic treatments for up to 40 programs in neuroscience and gastrointestinal oncology.Together, Recursion, Roche and Genentech have identified a number of biological insights from the first neuroscience-focused phenomap, that could become novel targets of interest.Roche and Genentech have already optioned an initial program in gastrointestinal oncology with additional potential targets/programs under exploration based off of 4 whole-genome GI oncology phenomaps accepted by the partner to date.To date, Recursion has achieved $213 million in upfront and milestone payments through the collaboration. Sanofi: Recursion and Sanofi continue to advance multi-target collaboration for up to 15 best-in-class or first-in-class programs across oncology and immunology, with $130 million in upfront and milestone payments achieved to date. Each program has the potential for over $300 million in milestone payments. Sanofi continues to leverage combined Recursion OS 2.0, including phenomics, to identify new program opportunities.Recursion and Sanofi are further advancing and expanding their joint pipeline across oncology and immunology.Several programs are continuing to advance towards potential lead series and development candidate designation over the next 12 months. Platform Recursion OS 2.0: The platform is continuing to drive program development by integrating AI across multimodal biology, precision design, and clinical development—enabling faster, more efficient, and more innovative drug discovery and development. Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $667.1 million as of September 30, 2025 compared to $603.0 million as of December 31, 2024. As of October 9, 2025, cash and cash equivalents was approximately $785 million (unaudited), following receipt of $387.5 million in net proceeds from the Company’s At-the-Market (ATM) facility during the third and fourth quarters of 2025, which is now fully utilized and completed. Based on current operating plans and with no additional financing, the Company’s expected cash runway extends through the end of 2027.Revenue: Total revenue, consisting primarily of revenue from collaboration agreements, was $5.2 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $26.1 million for the third quarter of 2024. The year over year change was primarily due to achievement of a $30 million milestone payment for the first phenomap from Roche and Genentech in August 2024, with the second $30 million milestone under the agreement achieved in October 2025, for which the company expects to recognize a portion as revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025.Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses were $121.1 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $74.6 million for the third quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in acquired IPR&D purchases related to the acquisition of full rights to REC-102, Recursion’s ENPP1 inhibitor, as well as the Company’s business combination with Exscientia in November 2024.General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $41.6 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $37.8 million for the third quarter of 2024. The increase compared to the prior period was primarily due to the inclusion of G&A expenses from the business combination with Exscientia.Net Loss: Net loss was $162.3 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to a net loss of $95.8 million for the third quarter of 2024.Operational cash flows: Net cash used in operating activities was $325.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $243.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by the inclusion of Exscientia’s operations, for which the business combination with Recursion closed in November 2024. This also included severance payments of $7.7 million in association with the restructuring activities announced in June 2025.
