Government grants

Total revenue recognized from government grants was approximately $945 thousand and $581 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

National Institute of Health - National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (“NIH-NIAID”) (Federal Award #1R41AI131823-02) – this grant was for approximately $1.5 million and had an original term of April 2019 through March 2021. The grant was subsequently amended to extend the end date to March 2023. No grant income was recognized for this grant for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and approximately $192 thousand of grant income was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This grant was completed as of June 30, 2023.

NIH-NIAID through Geneva Foundation (Federal Award #1R01AI132313-01, Subaward #S-10511-01) – this grant was for approximately $2.7 million and had an original term of August 2017 through July 2021. The grant was subsequently amended to extend the end date to July 2023. No grant income was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and approximately $236 thousand of grant income was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This grant was completed as of June 30, 2023.

US Department of Defense (“DoD”), Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense Enabling Biotechnologies (“JPEO”) through Advanced Technology International – this grant was for a potential of $25 million, awarded in stages starting in August 2019 and with potential stages running through February 2023. Additional contract modifications were added to this contract in 2020 and 2021 for work on a COVID therapeutic, bringing the contract total to $203.6 million. Deferred grant income recognized was approximately $945 thousand and $153 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This grant was terminated in 2022.

The grants for the Company’s Rapid Response contract with JPEO (the “JPEO Rapid Repsonse Contact”) are cost reimbursement agreements, with reimbursement of qualified direct research and development expense (labor and consumables) with an overhead charge (based on actual, reviewed quarterly) and a fixed fee (9%).

On August 3, 2022, the Company received notice from the DoD terminating the JPEO Rapid Response contract (the “JPEO Rapid Response Contract Termination”). The Company engaged in negotiations with the DoD to compensate the Company for services provided prior to the JPEO Rapid Response Contract Termination and costs the Company would be expected to bear in future periods. A termination and settlement proposal was submitted to the DoD on September 9, 2022; the Company submitted a final invoice on December 15, 2022; and received payment from the DoD on or about January 12, 2023. The terms of the arrangement provide for a cost-reimbursable structure, and state that the parties will work in good faith equitable reimbursement for work performed toward accomplishment of the tasks provided in the agreement. At this time, other than certain deferred obligations (presented within deferred grant income within the Company’s condensed consolidated unaudited balance sheet) potentially payable to the DoD solely due to subsequent negotiations with third-party vendors, the Company believes and has been advised there is a reasonable, good faith basis for the position that no present or future obligations exist. Revenue recognized subsequent to the JPEO Rapid Response Contract Termination relates to satisfaction of residual obligations under the termination and settlement agreement—see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further information about the Company’s established revenue recognition process.
