Revolution Medicines Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2020 Financial Results and Update on Corporate Progress

Advanced and Expanded Portfolio of RAS(ON) Inhibitors; Two Assets Entered IND-Enabling Development

Continued Progress in Development of RAS Companion Inhibitors to Support Targeted Combination Therapies

Strengthened Balance Sheet – Completed Financing Raising $281 Million in Net Proceeds

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a clinical-stage precision oncology company focused on developing targeted therapies to inhibit frontier targets in RAS-addicted cancers, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020, and provided a corporate update.

“Revolution Medicines has achieved multiple significant milestones, furthering the company’s position as a leading precision oncology company dedicated to the development of innovative targeted medicines and treatment regimens to address significant unmet needs for patients with RAS-addicted cancers,” said Mark A. Goldsmith, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer and chairman of Revolution Medicines.

“Our exceptional team delivered two pioneering RAS(ON) inhibitor development candidates into IND-enabling development, RMC-6291 and RMC-6236. RMC-6291 targets the oncogenic KRAS^G12C(ON) variant through a highly differentiated anti-tumor profile. RMC-6236 uniquely targets numerous RAS(ON) variants responsible for many cancers. We believe these two development candidates hold great promise for potential use in treating patients with a diverse range of RAS-addicted cancers, and we are actively advancing both toward the clinic.

“The company has also made great progress with our RAS Companion Inhibitor portfolio. Our most advanced candidate RMC-4630, a SHP2 inhibitor, is being evaluated in multiple studies to position it as a backbone for targeted combination therapies. We received FDA clearance to begin clinical evaluation of RMC-5552, a potent mTORC1-selective inhibitor, and plan to initiate a monotherapy dose-escalation study imminently. Additionally, we have advanced RMC-5845, our potent, selective, oral inhibitor of SOS1, a major switch in the cycling of RAS(OFF) to RAS(ON), into IND-enabling development.

“To support our expanded and advancing pipeline of development programs, Revolution Medicines recently completed an upsized financing, raising net proceeds of $281 million. We have made tremendous progress as a company and believe that our cohesive portfolio of innovative clinical and preclinical assets will permit rational, mechanism-based combinations and position Revolution Medicines to fulfill our mission.”

R&D Highlights

RAS(ON) Inhibitors – Revolution Medicines continues maturing its first-in-class RAS(ON) platform, introducing an expansive collection of tri-complex inhibitors targeting diverse oncogenic RAS variants through highly differentiated chemical and pharmacologic profiles.

○ RMC-4630 monotherapy has shown initial clinical anti-tumor activity in multiple cancer genotypes. The company has initiated an expansion cohort at the single agent recommended Phase 2 dose and schedule (RP2DS). The company expects to disclose a safety data set from the dose escalation portion of this trial in the first half of 2021.

○ RMC-4630 in combination with cobimetinib (Cotellic®) has shown initial clinical activity in patients with colorectal cancer driven by KRAS mutations. The company has initiated expansion cohorts evaluating patients with KRAS^MUTANT colorectal cancer at the RP2DS for this combination. The company expects preliminary safety and clinical activity data from this expansion study in 2022.

○ Studies evaluating RMC-4630 in combination with multiple inhibitors continue and are expanding.

▪ Dosing and enrollment continue in the Amgen-sponsored Phase 1 study of RMC-4630 in combination with Amgen’s KRAS^G12C(OFF) inhibitor, AMG 510, or sotorasib. The company expects a RP2DS will be reached in the first half of 2021 with preliminary activity data in the second half of 2021.

▪ Dosing and enrollment continue in the Sanofi-sponsored Phase 1 study of RMC-4630 in combination with the PD-1 inhibitor, pembrozilumab (Keytruda^®). The company expects a RP2DS will be reached for this combination in the first half of 2021.

▪ Dosing and enrollment continue in the Phase 1 study of RMC-4630 in combination with the EGFR inhibitor, osimertinib (Tagrisso^®). The company expects initial tolerability and pharmacokinetic (PK) data from this combination in the second half of 2021.

▪ Announced a clinical collaboration agreement with AstraZeneca to study RMC-4630 in combination with an emerging asset targeting KRAS^G12C from AstraZeneca’s portfolio.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Financial Highlights

Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $440.7 million as of December 31, 2020, compared to $122.8 million as of December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to proceeds from the company’s initial public offering in February 2020 and follow-on equity public offering in July 2020. Proceeds from the recently completed offering are not included in the December 31, 2020 cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance.

Revenue: Total revenue, consisting of revenue from the company’s collaboration agreement with Sanofi, was $8.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to $12.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Total revenue was $43.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $50.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease was due to lower reimbursed research and development services for RMC-4630 resulting from lower manufacturing costs. During the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019, the company incurred upfront manufacturing costs related to the supply of RMC-4630 for our clinical trials.

R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $37.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to $27.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Research and development expenses were $132.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $91.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in research expenses associated with the company’s pre-clinical research portfolio, an increase in personnel-related expenses related to additional headcount, and an increase in stock-based compensation, partially offset by lower costs related to RMC-4630.

G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $5.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to $4.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. General and administrative expenses were $21.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $12.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses associated with operating as a public company, an increase in personnel-related expenses related to additional headcount, and an increase in stock-based compensation.

Net Loss: Net loss was $34.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to net loss of $14.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Net loss was $108.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to net loss of $47.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.

2021 Financial Guidance

Revolution Medicines expects full year 2021 GAAP net loss to be between $170 million and $190 million, which includes estimated non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $20 million to $25 million.
