Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method based on useful lives as follows (in thousands):

 

    Useful lives (years)  

September 30,

2022

   

December 31,

2021

 
                 
Laboratory equipment   5   $ 8,144     $ 9,081  
Furniture, software and office equipment   3 to 5     1,726       1,896  
Leasehold improvements   Shorter of remaining lease term or useful life     8,586       8,603  
Construction-in-progress               3,219  
Subtotal         18,456       22,799  
Less: accumulated depreciation         (11,850 )     (10,460 )
Total property and equipment, net       $ 6,606     $ 12,339  

 

Depreciation expense was $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $2.3 million and $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred a loss on disposal of equipment of $16,000 and $0.1 million, respectively, which is reflected in other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

On March 31, 2022, the Company announced that it was pursuing a strategic partner to take over development activities of ABO-102 and that it was discontinuing development of ABO-101. As a result of this shift in priorities, the Company determined the construction-in-progress that was dedicated to the ABO-101 and ABO-102 programs had no future value, and thus recorded an impairment charge of $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
