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

Strengthened Balance Sheet Completed Financing Raising $281 Million in Net Proceeds
REDWOOD CITY, CA March 2, 2021 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
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 KRASG12C(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.
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.
RAS Companion Inhibitors Revolution Medicines continues
to advance and expand multiple clinical studies both as monotherapy and in targeted drug combinations designed to achieve maximum clinical benefit.
Corporate Highlights
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.
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
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.
