Other Events.

On January 21, 2026, Erasca, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC and Evercore Group L.L.C., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale of 22,500,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an offering price to the public of $10.00 per Share. The Underwriters have agreed to purchase the Shares from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $9.40 per Share. In addition, the Company has granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 3,375,000 additional shares of Common Stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds to the Company from this offering are expected to be approximately $211.0 million, or approximately $242.7 million if the Underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The offering is expected to close on January 23, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-289537) which became effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 22, 2025, and prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus filed with the SEC.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein. A copy of the opinion of Latham & Watkins LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of Common Stock in the offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this report.

The Company issued press releases on January 20, 2026 and January 21, 2026 announcing the commencement and pricing of the offering, respectively. Copies of the press releases are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this report.
