1. Nature of the Business

Aileron Therapeutics, Inc. (“Aileron” or the “Company”) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel therapies for the treatment of orphan pulmonary and fibrosis indications with no approved or limited effective treatments. The Company currently has two product candidates in clinical development, LTI-03 and LTI-01, and multiple candidates in preclinical development focused on fibrosis indications.

On October 31, 2023, Aileron acquired Lung Therapeutics, Inc. (“Lung Therapeutics” or “Lung”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October 31, 2023 (the “Lung Acquisition Agreement”), by and among the Company, AT Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary (“First Merger Sub”), AT Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and its wholly owned subsidiary (“Second Merger Sub”) and Lung. Pursuant to the Lung Acquisition Agreement, First Merger Sub merged with and into Lung, pursuant to which Lung was the surviving entity and became its wholly owned subsidiary (the “First Merger”). Immediately following the First Merger, Lung merged with and into Second Merger Sub, pursuant to which Second Merger Sub was the surviving entity (such merger, together with the First Merger, the “Lung Acquisition”). Lung was incorporated on November 13, 2012 under the laws of the state of Texas. Following the Lung Acquisition, the Company shifted its operating disease focus to advancing a pipeline of first-in-class medicines to address significant unmet medical needs in orphan pulmonary and fibrosis indications with the potential to greatly improve patient outcomes over currently available treatments. Following expiration of the operating lease agreement to rent an office space for its corporate headquarters in Austin, Texas, on March 31, 2024, the Company expects to operate virtually for the foreseeable future (see Note 15 for further details).

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to clinical-stage companies in the biotechnology industry, including, but not limited to the risk that the Company never achieves profitability, the need for substantial additional financing, the risk of relying on third parties, risks of clinical trial failures, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, and compliance with government regulations. The Company’s lead product candidate, LTI-03, is being developed for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (“IPF”) and has completed a healthy volunteer Phase 1a clinical trial. LTI-03 is currently in a Phase 1b clinical trial in IPF patients. The Company’s second product candidate, LTI-01, is in development for loculated pleural effusion (“LPE”). The Company has completed Phase 1b and Phase 2a clinical trials in LPE patients.

Liquidity and Going Concern

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying consolidated financial statements were issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Generally, to be considered probable of being effectively implemented, the plans must have been approved before the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Through March 31, 2024, the Company has financed its operations primarily through $145,467 in net proceeds from sales of common stock and warrants, $131,211 from sales of preferred stock prior to its initial public offering (“IPO”), and $34,910 from a collaboration agreement in 2010, and $18,429 in gross proceeds, less issuance costs of $893, in connection with the financing following the Lung Acquisition. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $12,042 in cash and cash equivalents.

On May 1, 2024, Aileron entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Titan Partners Group LLC, a division of American Capital Partners, LLC, as underwriter, relating to an underwritten offering (the “Offering”) of 4,273,505 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Offering Shares”) and accompanying warrants (the “Offering Warrants”) to purchase 4,273,505 shares of common stock (the “Offering Warrant Shares”). All of the Offering Shares and Offering Warrants were sold by the Company by May 3, 2024 for the net proceeds from the Offering of approximately $17,945, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, and excluding any proceeds that may be received from exercise of the Offering Warrants (see Note 16 for further details). The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering, together with its existing cash and cash equivalents, to fund the development and commercialization of its product candidates, including its ongoing Phase 1b clinical trial of LTI-03; and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

After the Offering, management considers that, based on the Company’s current operating plan, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents of $27,496 as of May 3, 2024 will enable the Company to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second half of 2025. Since its inception, the Company has not generated any revenue from product sales and has never generated an operating profit. The Company has incurred significant losses on an aggregate basis. The Company’s net losses were $7,113 and $4,779 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $295,630. These losses have resulted primarily from costs incurred in connection with research and development activities, licensing and patent investment and general and administrative costs associated with the Company’s operations. Management expects to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future until the Company completes development and approval of its product candidates. The Company will continue to fund its operations primarily through utilization of its current financial resources and additional raises of capital.

These conditions support the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date those condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. However, the Company could use its available capital resources sooner than it currently expects. The Company’s future viability is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital, enter into a financing, consummate a successful acquisition, merger, business combination, or a sale of assets or other transaction. If the Company becomes unable to continue as a going concern, it may have to liquidate its assets and the values it receives for its assets in liquidation or dissolution could be significantly lower than the values reflected in its consolidated financial statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by ASUs of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

3. Business Acquisition

On October 31, 2023, Aileron acquired 100% of Lung, pursuant to the Lung Acquisition Agreement. At the closing of the Lung Acquisition, Aileron issued to the stockholders of Lung 344,345 shares of its common stock (excluding 221 fractional shares from the total 344,566 shares pursuant to the Lung Acquisition Agreement) and 19,903 shares of its newly designated Series X Preferred Stock (excluding 238 fractional shares from the total 20,141 shares pursuant to the Lung Acquisition Agreement). Each share of Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock. The Company paid $290 cash in lieu of fractional shares of both common stock and Series X Preferred Stock. In addition, Aileron assumed all Lung’s stock options (1,780,459) and all warrants (726,437) exercisable for Lung common stock immediately outstanding prior to the closing of the Lung Acquisition, each subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Lung Acquisition Agreement.

Immediately following the closing of the Lung Acquisition, on October 31, 2023, Aileron entered into a Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a group of accredited investors, pursuant to which Aileron issued and sold (i) an aggregate of 4,707 shares of Series X Preferred Stock, and (ii) warrants (the “PIPE Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,353,500 shares of Aileron common stock (the “PIPE Warrant Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $18,429, which included the conversion of certain convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,553 issued by Lung to Bios Partners, the majority stockholder of Lung prior to the closing of the Lung Acquisition, at a 10% discount to the per share price of the Series X Preferred Stock (the “PIPE Financing”). The PIPE Financing closed on November 2, 2023. Each share of Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock.

The net proceeds from the PIPE Financing of approximately $17,536 are expected to be used to advance Aileron’s clinical development pipeline, business development activities, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The Lung Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations. Under the acquisition method, the total purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair values as of the date of the acquisition. Consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree, and the equity interests issued by the acquirer to the former owners of the acquiree (except for the measurement of share-based payment awards). The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the Lung Acquisition based on the information available at that date.

4. Fair Value of Financial Assets

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no transfers between levels.

5. Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

6. Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

$6,330 of goodwill and $79,200 of indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired in the Lung Acquisition were recorded at fair value on the Lung Acquisition date. The Company performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for potential impairment as of March 31, 2024, and concluded that there was no goodwill or intangible assets impairment as of March 31, 2024.

7. Other Assets

8. Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities

9. Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had issued 24,610 shares of Series X Preferred Stock, of which 12,653 shares of Series X Preferred Stock remained outstanding. As of December 31, 2023, 24,610 shares of Series X Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

On March 5, 2024, based upon existing beneficial ownership limitations, 11,957 shares of Series X Preferred Stock were automatically converted into 11,957,000 shares of common stock and 12,653 shares of Series X Preferred Stock (which are convertible into 12,653,000 shares of common stock) remained convertible at the option of the holder thereof, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (see below).

On October 31, 2023, Aileron acquired Lung. Under the terms of the Lung Acquisition Agreement, at the closing of the Lung Acquisition, Aileron issued to the stockholders of Lung 344,345 shares of the common stock of Aileron, par value $0.001 per share, and 19,903 shares of Series X Preferred Stock.

Immediately following the closing of the Lung Acquisition, on October 31, 2023, Aileron entered into the Purchase Agreement with a group of accredited investors, pursuant to which Aileron issued and sold 4,707 shares of Series X Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,353,500 shares of Aileron common stock. Refer to Note 3 for more details on the PIPE Financing in connection with the Purchase Agreement. Since the Series X Preferred Stock was sold as a unit with the PIPE Warrants according to the Purchase Agreement, the proceeds received were allocated to each instrument on a relative fair value basis. Total gross proceeds of $18,429 reduced by $893 of the issuance costs were allocated as follows: $16,795 to the Series X Preferred Stock and $741 to the PIPE Warrants. The Series X Preferred Stock and the PIPE Warrants issued in the PIPE Financing were recorded at par value of $0.001.

The Company evaluated the Series X Preferred Stock for liability classification in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480"), and determined that equity treatment was appropriate because the Series X Preferred Stock did not meet the definition of the liability instruments. Specifically, the Series X Preferred Stock is not mandatorily redeemable and does not embody an obligation to buy back the shares outside of the Company’s control in a manner that could require the transfer of assets. The Company determined that the Series X Preferred Stock would be recorded as temporary equity, based on the guidance of ASC 480, given that it is contingently redeemable.

Each share of Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of Common Stock. The preferences, rights, and limitations initially applicable to the Series X Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation.

The Series X Preferred Stock has the following characteristics:

Voting

Except as otherwise required by law, the Series X Preferred Stock does not have voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series X Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series X Preferred Stock, (i) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series X Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Certificate of Designation, amend or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, the Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of the Company, or file any articles of amendment, certificate of designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of any series of preferred stock, if such action would adversely alter or change the preferences, rights, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the Series X Preferred Stock, (ii) issue further shares of Series X Preferred Stock or increase or decrease (other than by conversion) the number of authorized shares of Series X Preferred Stock, or (iii) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

Dividends

Holders of Series X Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series X Preferred Stock equal, on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis, and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the common stock. Such dividends are not cumulative. Since the Company’s inception, no dividends have been declared or paid.

Liquidation, dissolution or winding up

The Series X Preferred Stock does not have a preference upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company.

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the Series X preferred stockholders shall be entitled to receive an equivalent amount of distributions as would be paid on the common stock underlying the Series X Preferred Stock, determined on an as-converted basis, pari passu with any distributions to the common stock shareholders.

Conversion

The Series X Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a rate of 1,000 shares of common stock for every one share of Series X Preferred Stock that is converted. The Series X Preferred Stock is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations, including

that a holder of Series X Preferred Stock is prohibited from converting shares of Series X Preferred Stock into shares of common stock if, as a result of such conversion, such holder (together with its affiliates and any other persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of its affiliates) would beneficially own more than a specified percentage (to be initially set at 19.99% and thereafter adjusted by the holder to a number not to exceed 19.99%) of the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.

Redemption

Shares of the Series X Preferred Stock are not redeemable at the election of the holder.

Maturity

The Series X Preferred Stock shall be perpetual unless converted.

10. Common Stock

On February 28, 2024, the Company held its 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2023 Annual Meeting”), at which the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock of the Company from 45,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares. The Company filed the Certificate of Amendment to implement the increase in the number of authorized shares, which was effective upon filing, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 28, 2024. The additional shares of common stock authorized by the Certificate of Amendment have rights identical to the Company’s currently outstanding common stock. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company was authorized to issue 100,000,000 and 45,000,000 shares of common stock, respectively, par value $0.001 per share.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had 16,842,512 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had 4,885,512 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders. Common stockholders are entitled to receive dividends, as may be declared by the Company’s board of directors, if any. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no dividends had been declared.

In the event of liquidation or dissolution, the holders of the common stock are entitled to receive proportionately all assets available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding preferred stock.

Issuance of Common Stock

At the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders also approved the issuance, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), of shares of common stock, upon conversion of the Company’s outstanding Series X Preferred Stock. On March 5, 2024, based upon existing beneficial ownership limitations, 11,957 shares of Series X Preferred Stock were automatically converted into 11,957,000 shares of common stock and approximately 12,653 shares of Series X Preferred Stock (which are convertible into 12,653,000 shares of common stock) remained convertible at the option of the holder thereof, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations.

On October 31, 2023, Aileron acquired Lung. Under the terms of the Lung Acquisition Agreement, at the closing of the Lung Acquisition, Aileron issued to the stockholders of Lung 344,345 shares of the common stock of Aileron, par value $0.001 per share, and 19,903 shares of Series X Preferred Stock.

Immediately following the closing of the Lung Acquisition, on October 31, 2023, Aileron entered into the Purchase Agreement with a group of accredited investors, pursuant to which Aileron issued and sold 4,707 shares of Series X Preferred Stock and PIPE Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,353,500 shares of Aileron common stock. Refer to Note 3 for more details on the PIPE Financing in connection with the Purchase Agreement. The exercise price of the PIPE Warrants is $4.89 per share, subject to certain price and share adjustments, including for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, subdivisions, combinations, reclassifications, noncash distributions, and cash dividends. The PIPE Warrants will be exercisable any time after May 2, 2024 and on or prior to May 2, 2027. Payment for the PIPE Warrant Shares upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants may be (i) in cash or (ii) in the event that there is no registration statement available for the resale of the PIPE Warrant Shares, by cashless exercise.

Under the terms of the PIPE Warrants, the Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of any PIPE Warrant, and a holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of any PIPE Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the holder (together with its affiliates and any other persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of its affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of a percentage elected by the holder up to 19.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the PIPE Warrants. However, any holder may, upon written notice to the Company, increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in

excess of 19.99%; provided that any increase or decrease in such percentage will not be effective until 61 days after such notice is delivered to the Company.

The Company has assessed the PIPE Warrants for appropriate equity or liability classification and determined the PIPE Warrants are freestanding instruments that do not meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480 and do not meet the definition of a derivative pursuant to ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The PIPE Warrants are indexed to the Company’s common stock and meet all other conditions for equity classification under ASC 480 and ASC 815. Accordingly, the PIPE Warrants are classified as equity and accounted for as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. The PIPE Warrants were initially recognized at their relative fair value in the amount of $741 at the time of issuance determined using Black-Scholes option-pricing model and will not be remeasured.

As of March 31, 2024, 16,842,512 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding, no shares were held in treasury, and 24,610 shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been issued, of which 12,653 shares of Series X Preferred Stock remained outstanding. In addition, as of March 31, 2024, there were:

Accordingly, as of March 31, 2024, out of the 100,000,000 shares of common stock presently authorized, 39,006,303 shares are issued and outstanding or reserved for issuance and 60,993,697 shares of common stock remain available for future issuance.

Under the 2021 Plan, shares that are expired, terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised will be available for future awards. In addition, shares of common stock that are tendered to the Company by a participant to exercise an award are added to the number of shares of common stock available for the grant of awards.

The exercise price for stock options granted may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock as of the date of grant.

2021 Stock Incentive Plan

The Company’s 2021 Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 15, 2021 and became effective on June 16, 2021. At the 2023 Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment (the “Plan Amendment”) to the 2021 Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2021 Plan by 3,000,000 shares to 3,840,254. On January 17, 2024, upon the recommendation of the compensation committee and subject to stockholder approval, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Plan Amendment. Other than increasing the number of shares issuable under the 2021 Plan, the Plan Amendment does not make any changes to the 2021 Plan.

Under the 2021 Plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, awards of restricted stock units and other stock-based awards. The Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors are eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Plan; however, incentive stock options may only be granted to employees. The 2021 Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) or, at the discretion of the Board, by a committee of the Board. The number of shares of common stock covered by options and the date those options become exercisable, type

of options to be granted, exercise prices, vesting and other restrictions are determined at the discretion of the Board, or its committee if so delegated.

Stock options granted under the 2021 Plan with service-based vesting conditions generally vest over four years and may not have a duration in excess of ten years, although options have been granted with vesting terms of less than four years.

The Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors were eligible to receive awards under the 2017 Plan; however, incentive stock options could only be granted to employees. The 2017 Plan is administered by the Board or, at the discretion of the Board, by a committee of the Board. The number of shares of common stock covered by options and the date those options become exercisable, type of options granted, exercise prices, vesting and other restrictions were determined at the discretion of the Board, or its committee if so delegated.

Stock options granted under the 2017 Plan with service-based vesting conditions generally vest over four years and may not have a duration in excess of ten years, although options have been granted with vesting terms of less than four years. The exercise price for stock options granted may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock as of the date of grant.

As of the effective date of the 2021 Plan, the Board determined to grant no further awards under the 2017 Plan.

Shares that are expired, terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised under the 2017 Plan will be available for future awards under the 2021 Plan. In addition, shares of common stock that are tendered to the Company by a participant to exercise an award are added to the number of shares of common stock available for the grant of awards under the 2021 Plan.

2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On June 16, 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2017 ESPP, which became effective on June 28, 2017. Under the 2017 ESPP, the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2017 ESPP will automatically increase on each January 1, beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including, the fiscal year ending December 31, 2027, equal to the least of (i) 31,120 shares, (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares of common stock on such date and (iii) an amount determined by the Company’s Board. On January 1, 2023 and January 1, 2024, no additional shares were reserved for issuance under the 2017 ESPP pursuant to this provision. 7,500 shares remained available for future issuance under the 2017 ESPP as of March 31, 2024.

2013 Stock Incentive Plan

The Company assumed the 2013 Plan as a result of the Lung Acquisition. In October 2013, Lung’s Board of Directors (“Lung Board”) approved the 2013 Plan to provide long-term incentives for its employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants. As of March 31, 2024, 1,780,459 shares were reserved to be issued upon exercise of options outstanding under the 2013 Plan. These options were assumed by the Company in connection with the Lung Acquisition.

Before the Lung Acquisition, the 2013 Plan was administered by the Lung Board or, at the discretion of the Lung Board, by a committee of the Lung Board. The exercise prices, vesting and other restrictions were determined at the discretion of the Lung Board, or its committee if so delegated, except that the exercise price per share of stock options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the share of common stock on the date of grant and the term of stock option may not be greater than ten years. The contractual term for stock option awards is ten years. The vesting periods for equity awards were determined by the Lung Board, but generally were four years. The contractual term for stock option awards is ten years. Following the closing of the Lung Acquisition on October 31, 2023, no further awards can be granted under the 2013 Plan.
