To the addressees set forth above:
On behalf of Revolution Medicines, Inc. (the Company), we are hereby responding to the comment letter to the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 received on April 9, 2024 from the staff (the Staff) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission). We have set forth below the comment from your letter in bold type followed by the Companys response thereto.
Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023
Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Research and development expenses, page 91
1. | We note from the pipeline table on page 9 that you have multiple products that are in clinical development. Please revise future filings to disclose the costs incurred during each period presented for each of your key research and development product candidates. If you do not track your research and development costs by project, disclose that fact and explain why you do not maintain and evaluate research and development costs by project. Also, revise to provide other quantitative and qualitative disclosures that give more transparency as to the type of research and development expenses incurred (i.e., by nature or type of expense) which should reconcile to total research and development expenses on your Statements of Operations. |
Companys Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staffs comment and advises the Staff that the Company, in future filings, commencing with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024, will provide the requested disclosure relating to costs incurred for the Companys key research and development product candidates, including quantitative and qualitative disclosures as to the type of research and development expenses, for each period presented.
We hope that the foregoing has been responsive to the Staffs comment. Please do not hesitate to contact me by telephone at (650) 463-3043 or by email at Mark.Roeder@LW.com with any questions or comments regarding this correspondence.
