Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as actual events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, could adversely affect our current and projected business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Actual events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties or other companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the past, such as in the case of the closure and subsequent placement into receivership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) of Silicon Valley Bank in March 2023, and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. In these cases, borrowers under credit agreements, letters of credit and certain other financial instruments with any financial institution that is placed into receivership by the FDIC may be unable to access undrawn amounts thereunder. If any of our lenders or counterparties to any such instruments were to be placed into receivership, we may be unable to access such funds, which could result in liquidity constraints or failures. In addition, if any of our collaboration partners, suppliers or other parties with whom we conduct business are unable to access funds pursuant to such instruments or lending arrangements with such a financial institution, such parties’ ability to pay their obligations to us or to enter into new commercial arrangements requiring additional payments to us could be adversely affected.
Although we assess our banking and other business relationships as we believe necessary or appropriate, our access to funding sources and other credit arrangements in amounts adequate to finance or capitalize our current and projected future business operations could be significantly impaired by factors that affect us, the financial institutions with which we have credit agreements or arrangements directly, or the financial services industry or economy in general. These factors could include, among others, events such as liquidity constraints or failures, the ability to perform obligations under various types of financial, credit or liquidity agreements or arrangements, disruptions or instability in the financial services industry or financial markets, or concerns or negative expectations about the prospects for companies in the financial services industry or the supervision thereof. These factors could involve financial institutions or financial services industry companies with which we have financial or business relationships, but could also include factors involving financial markets or the financial services industry generally.
The results of events or concerns that involve one or more of these factors could include a variety of material and adverse impacts on our current and projected business operations and our financial condition and results of operations. These could include, but may not be limited to, the following:
• Delayed access to deposits or other financial assets or the uninsured loss of deposits or other financial assets;
• Delayed or lost access to, or reductions in borrowings available under revolving existing credit facilities or other working capital sources and/or delays, inability or reductions in our ability to refund, roll over or extend the maturity of, or enter into new credit facilities or other working capital resources;
• Potential or actual breach of contractual obligations that require us to maintain letters of credit or other credit support arrangements;
• Potential or actual breach of financial covenants in our credit agreements or credit arrangements;
• Potential or actual cross-defaults in other credit agreements, credit arrangements or operating or financing agreements; or
• Termination of cash management arrangements and/or delays in accessing or actual loss of funds subject to cash management arrangements.
In addition, investor concerns regarding the U.S. or international financial systems could result in less favorable commercial financing terms, including higher interest rates or costs and tighter financial and operating covenants, or systemic limitations on access to credit and liquidity sources, thereby making it more difficult for us to acquire financing on acceptable terms or at all. Any decline in available funding or access to our cash and liquidity resources could, among other risks, adversely impact our ability to meet our operating expenses, financial obligations or fulfill our other obligations, result in breaches of our financial and/or contractual obligations or result in violations of federal or state wage and hour laws. Any of these impacts, or any other impacts resulting from the factors described above or other related or similar factors not described above, could have material adverse impacts on our liquidity and our current and/or projected business operations and financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, any further deterioration in the macroeconomic economy or financial services industry could lead to losses or defaults by our collaboration partners, suppliers or other parties with whom we do business, which in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our current and/or projected business operations and results of operations and financial condition. Any bankruptcy or insolvency of a collaboration partner, supplier or other party with whom we do business, or the failure of any such party to make payments when due, or any breach or default by any such party, or the loss of any significant business relationships, could result in material losses to us and may have a material adverse impact on our business.
We have recorded significant restructuring charges from our corporate restructuring initiatives, including any associated workforce reductions or reorganizations, and may do so again in the future, which could have a material negative impact on our results of operations, may not result in the full anticipated savings, and may disrupt operations.
Historically, we have recorded significant restructuring charges related to our prior corporate restructuring initiatives. Specifically in 2024, we committed to restructuring initiatives designed to drive operational changes in our business processes, efficiencies, and cost savings to advance our corporate strategy and development programs. The restructuring initiatives included, among other components, consolidation and rationalization of our facilities, reprioritization of development programs and the reduction in our workforce. We may not fully realize the anticipated benefits, savings and improvements in our cost structure from this restructuring initiative or other restructuring efforts that we may undertake in the future, due to unforeseen difficulties, delays, or unexpected costs and the expenses of restructuring may be greater than anticipated. If we are unable to realize anticipated cost savings from our restructuring initiatives in the future, our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected. Furthermore, our reprioritization of development programs may be disruptive to our operations. For example, our workforce reductions could yield unanticipated consequences, such as turnover beyond planned reductions or increased difficulties in conducting our day-to-day operations. Our workforce reductions could also harm our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel who are critical to our business and make it difficult for us to pursue, or prevent us from pursuing, new opportunities and initiatives due to insufficient personnel, or require us to incur additional and unanticipated costs to hire new personnel to pursue such opportunities or initiatives. Any failure to attract or retain qualified personnel could prevent us from successfully executing key business initiatives and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Growth Strategy
Drug development is a highly uncertain undertaking and involves a substantial degree of risk. We have incurred significant losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future. Although we have been generating product revenue from Attruby since its approval, this limited operating history, may make it difficult for you to assess our future viability.
Pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical product development is a highly speculative undertaking and involves a substantial degree of risk. Although we are a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company, we have a limited operating history as a commercial-stage company upon which you can evaluate our business and prospects. Our subsidiaries, on whose success we largely rely, are primarily early-stage biopharmaceutical companies. In November 2024, Attruby was approved for commercial sale in the U.S. In February 2025, Beyonttra was approved for commercial sale in the European Union. In addition, our pipeline of product candidates may require substantial additional development time, including additional clinical research, and resources before we would be able to apply for or receive additional regulatory approvals and begin generating revenue from sales of those product candidates, if approved.

Table of Contents

We are not profitable and have incurred losses since our inception in April 2015. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we incurred net losses of $166.6 million and $169.6 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $4.0 billion. In November 2024, Attruby was approved for commercial sale in the U.S. and in February 2025, Beyonttra was approved for commercial sale in the European Union. In addition, we previously had two products approved for commercial sale, NULIBRY and TRUSELTIQ TM , but did not generate any significant revenues from product sales, and have until recently financed operations solely through the sale of equity securities, debt financings, royalty monetization, and the sale of certain assets. We continue to incur significant research and development (“R&D”), costs for the commercialization of Attruby and Beyonttra, and other expenses related to ongoing operations and expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future. In addition, we believe that potential delays in our ongoing and planned clinical trials and adjustments to certain of our study procedures for various reasons, such as challenges in enrollment, additional requirements imposed by regulatory authorities or investigative sites, or supply chain issues, could increase our expenditures or draw out our expenditures over a longer period of time than originally estimated. Additionally, changes to our selection of contract research organizations (“CROs”) for non-clinical laboratory activities and engagement with CMOs, to mitigate any potential impacts to our supply chain may increase our expenditures relative to initial expectations. We anticipate these losses will increase substantially in future periods.
Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with drug development and commercialization, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of our expenses, or when we will be able to generate any meaningful revenue from our product candidates or achieve or maintain profitability, if ever. In addition, our expenses could increase beyond our current expectations if we are required by the FDA, or comparable foreign regulatory authorities, to conduct nonclinical or preclinical studies or clinical trials in addition to those that we currently anticipate or to otherwise provide data beyond that which we currently believe is necessary to support an application for marketing approval or to continue clinical development, or if there are any delays in any of our or our future collaborators’ clinical trials or the development of our product candidates, that we may identify. We anticipate incurring significant costs associated with commercializing any future product candidates, if approved, and ongoing compliance efforts.
We may never be able to successfully commercialize any of our product candidates or achieve profitability. Revenue from the sale of any product will be dependent, in part, upon the size of the markets in the territories for which we have or may gain regulatory approval, the accepted price for the product, the ability to obtain reimbursement at any price and whether we own the commercial rights for that territory. Our growth strategy depends on our ability to generate revenue. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Our failure to achieve sustained profitability would depress our stock price and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, diversify our research and development pipeline, market our product candidates, if approved, that we may identify and pursue, or continue our operations. Our prior losses, combined with expected future losses, have had and will continue to have an adverse effect on our stockholders’ deficit and working capital.
We may require substantial additional funding to achieve our business goals. If we are unable to obtain this funding when needed and on acceptable terms, we could be forced to delay, limit or terminate our product development and commercialization efforts.
Developing and commercializing biopharmaceutical products is expensive and time-consuming, and we may require substantial additional capital to conduct research, preclinical testing and human studies, may establish pilot scale and commercial scale manufacturing processes and facilities, and establish and develop quality control, regulatory, marketing, sales and administrative capabilities to support our existing programs and pursue potential additional programs. We are also responsible for the payments to third parties of expenses that may include milestone payments, license maintenance fees and royalties, including in the case of certain of our agreements with academic institutions or other companies from whom intellectual property rights underlying their respective programs have been in-licensed or acquired. Because the outcome of any preclinical or clinical development and regulatory approval process is highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development, regulatory approval process and commercialization of any future product candidates we may identify.

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2026, we had working capital of $424.9 million, of which cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities amounted to $940.2 million. We expect that our cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and proceeds from Attruby product revenue will be sufficient to fund our operations through at least the next 12 months from the date of filing of this report. However, our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us, including our need for, and ability to raise, capital to support our research, development and commercialization plans, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned, through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, such as royalty monetization, strategic collaborations or license and development agreements. Any additional fundraising efforts for us may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize product candidates that we may identify and pursue. Moreover, such financing may result in dilution to stockholders, imposition of debt covenants and repayment obligations, or other restrictions that may affect our business. In addition, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.
Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:
• the time and cost necessary to establish internal commercialization capabilities or enter into collaborations with third parties for the commercialization of Attruby or any product candidate, if approved;
• our ability to satisfy the conditions required by the funding of the investment amount under the Funding Agreement;
• the time and cost necessary to complete ongoing and planned clinical trials, including our ongoing Phase 3 clinical trials of low-dose infigratinib, BBP-418, and encaleret;
• the time and cost necessary to pursue regulatory approvals for our product candidates, and the costs of post-marketing studies that could be required by regulatory authorities;
• the progress, timing, scope and costs of our nonclinical studies, preclinical studies, clinical trials and other related activities, including the ability to enroll patients in a timely manner, for the ongoing and planned clinical trials set forth above, and potential future clinical trials;
• the costs of obtaining adequate clinical and commercial supplies of raw materials and drug products for our product candidates, including gene therapies such as BBP-812 and any other product candidates we may identify and develop;
• our ability to successfully identify and negotiate acceptable terms for third party supply and contract manufacturing agreements with CMOs;
• our ability to successfully commercialize any product candidates that may be approved;
• the manufacturing, selling and marketing costs associated with any product candidates that may be approved, including the cost and timing of expanding our internal sales and marketing capabilities or entering into strategic collaborations with third parties to leverage or access these capabilities;
• the amount and timing of sales and other revenues from any approved products, including the sales price and the availability of adequate third party reimbursement;
• the cash requirements of any future acquisitions or discovery of product candidates;
• the time and cost necessary to respond to technological and market developments;
• the costs of acquiring, licensing or investing in intellectual property rights, products, product candidates and businesses;
• our ability to continue to discover and develop additional product candidates, and the time and costs associated with identifying additional product candidates;
• our ability to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel; and
• the costs of maintaining, expanding and protecting our intellectual property portfolio.
Additional funds may not be available when we need them, on terms that are acceptable, or at all. If adequate funds are not available to us on a timely basis, we may be required to delay, limit or terminate one or more research or development programs or the commercialization of any product candidates or be unable to expand operations or otherwise capitalize on business opportunities, as desired, which could materially affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

We have incurred a significant amount of debt and may in the future incur additional indebtedness. Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial debt.
As of March 31, 2026, we and our subsidiaries had total consolidated indebtedness of $2.5 billion related to the Notes and deferred royalty obligations of $892.7 million. The Notes include $550.0 million of indebtedness outstanding under our unsecured 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), $747.5 million of indebtedness outstanding under our 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”), $575.0 million of indebtedness outstanding under our 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”) and $632.5 million of indebtedness outstanding under our 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes”). Subject to the limitations in the terms of our existing and future indebtedness, we and our subsidiaries may incur additional indebtedness, secure existing or future indebtedness, or refinance our indebtedness. We may be required to use a substantial portion of our cash to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness. Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness, depends on our future performance and our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from our operations, which are subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Such payments will reduce the funds available to us for working capital, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes and limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, expansion plans, and other investments, which may in turn limit our ability to implement our business strategy, heighten our vulnerability to downturns in our business, the industry, or in the general economy, limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry, and prevent us from taking advantage of business opportunities as they arise. Additionally, if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow to service our indebtedness and fund our operations, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.
Refer to the Risk Factor below in this Item 1A for further discussion related to our royalty monetization arrangements.
The conditional conversion feature of the Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
In the event the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, holders of the Notes will be entitled to convert the notes at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their Notes, we may satisfy our conversion obligation, at our election, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share). To the extent we elect to settle any conversion in cash or in a combination of cash and shares, the cash portion of such settlement could reduce our liquidity. For example, the 2027 and 2031 Notes became convertible for a limited period starting on April 1, 2026 under the conversion condition met and will remain convertible until June 30, 2026.
We are parties to the Royalty Purchase Agreement and the Funding Agreement, which contain certain covenants and restrictions on our operations that, if violated, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results. The Royalty Purchase Agreement requires us to direct 60% of BridgeBio’s European royalties on the first $500.0 million of annual BEYONTTRA net sales to the purchasers until the applicable cap is reached. Under the Funding Agreement, an increase in the rate of royalty interest payments payable by us to the purchasers based on the net sales of Attruby under the Funding Agreement could impact our financial condition and operating results.
We are parties to two royalty monetization arrangements pursuant to which we have monetized a portion of future royalty streams on certain products in exchange for upfront capital. Such arrangements subject us to certain covenants and restrictions that we must comply with.
In June 2025, we and our subsidiary Eidos Therapeutics, Inc. (“Eidos”) entered into a Royalty Interest Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Royalty Purchase Agreement”) with Acoramidis Royalty SPV, LP (“ARS”), an affiliate of HealthCare Royalty Management, LLC (“HCRx”), as a purchaser and the purchaser representative (in such capacity, the “Purchaser Representative”), and LSI Financing Fund, LP, an affiliate of Blue Owl Capital Corporation, as a purchaser (together with ARS as a purchaser and any future permitted assignees of a purchaser, the “Royalty Agreement Purchasers”).
114

Table of Contents

Pursuant to the Royalty Purchase Agreement, Eidos sold to the Royalty Agreement Purchasers certain of Eidos’ right to receive certain royalty payments (“Purchased Royalty Payment”) on net sales of certain products containing acoramidis (the “Licensed Products”) made in the EU and all member and extension states of the European Patent Organization (the “Licensed Territory”) under (i) our Bayer License Agreement and (ii) the amended and restated license agreement between Eidos and our other subsidiary, BridgeBio International GmbH. As consideration for the sale of the Purchased Royalty Payment, the Royalty Agreement Purchasers paid Eidos $300.0 million in cash (the “Purchase Price”), which was funded in full upon the closing of the transactions under the Royalty Purchase Agreement.
Under the Royalty Purchase Agreement, the Royalty Agreement Purchasers are entitled to the Purchased Royalty Payment, subject to (a) an annual cap equal to 60% of all royalty payments paid by Bayer to Eidos and its affiliates under the Bayer License Agreement on the first $500.0 million of annual net sales of Licensed Products in the Licensed Territory under the Bayer License Agreement and (b) an initial hard cap equal to 145% of the Purchase Price. In addition, we and our subsidiary, Eidos, granted the Purchaser Representative, for the benefit of the Royalty Agreement Purchasers, a security interest in specific assets related to the Purchased Royalty Payment.
In January 2024, we and our subsidiaries Eidos, BridgeBio Europe B.V. and BridgeBio International GmbH (together, the “Seller Parties”) entered into a Funding Agreement (the “Funding Agreement”) with LSI Financing 1 Designated Activity Company and CPPIB Credit Europe S.à r.l. (together and with any future permitted assignees of a seller party, the “Funding Agreement Purchasers”), and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as the collateral agent, to help support the commercial launch of Attruby. Under the Funding Agreement, the Funding Agreement Purchasers’ obligation to pay us $500.0 million (in the aggregate, net of certain transaction expenses) (the “Investment Amount”) was conditioned upon the first FDA approval of Attruby. In addition, pursuant to the Funding Agreement, the Seller Parties have granted to the collateral agent, for the benefit of the Funding Agreement Purchasers, a security interest in specific assets related to Attruby.
Under the Royalty Purchase Agreement and the Funding Agreement, we are required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants. For example, under the Funding Agreement, we are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize Attruby, provide the Funding Agreement Purchasers with certain clinical, commercial, regulatory and intellectual property updates and certain financial statements, and provide notices upon the occurrence of certain events. The Royalty Purchase Agreement includes covenants primarily relating to the preservation of the applicable royalty-generating agreements and the Royalty Agreement Purchasers’ rights to receive the purchased royalty payments. Compliance with these covenants may limit our flexibility in operating our business and our ability to take actions that might otherwise be advantageous to us and our stockholders. If we are unable to comply with applicable obligations, the purchasers under the Royalty Purchase Agreement or the Funding Agreement, as applicable, may be entitled to exercise remedies against their respective collateral securing our obligations, including taking possession of assets under the Funding Agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Under the Funding Agreement, following the Funding Agreement Purchasers’ payment of the Investment Amount to us, the Funding Agreement Purchasers have the right to receive payments (the “Royalty Interest Payments”) equal to 5% of the global net sales of Attruby (“Net Sales”). However, under certain conditions, including conditions relating to sales performance of Attruby by or on behalf of us, the rate of the Royalty Interest Payments may be increased to a maximum rate of 10% in 2027. Such increase(s) could result in additional payments by us to the Funding Agreement Purchasers and may materially impact our liquidity and profitability or otherwise affect our financial condition and operating results. The Funding Agreement Purchasers’ rights to the Royalty Interest Payments and ownership interest in Net Sales will terminate upon the earlier of the Funding Agreement Purchasers’ receipt of (a) Royalty Interest Payments equal to $950.0 million (“Cap Amount”) and (b) a buy-out payment (“Buy-Out Payment”) in an amount determined in accordance with the Funding Agreement but that will not exceed the Cap Amount.
The sale or issuance of our securities, including pursuant to “at-the-market” offering arrangements, may cause significant dilution and the sale of such securities, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the price of our common stock to fall.
For example, in May 2023, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and SVB Securities LLC, which provided for the offer and sale of up to $450.0 million of our common stock in an “at-the-market” offering program. Sales under any equity distribution agreements or “at-the-market” offering arrangements, including those we may enter into in the future, could result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. Additionally, the sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock or other securities, or the anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

Raising additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights to current product candidates or to any future product candidates on unfavorable terms.
We may seek additional capital through any number of available sources, including, but not limited to, public and private equity offerings, debt financings, royalty monetization, strategic partnerships and alliances and licensing arrangements. We, and indirectly, our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing any such securities and of entering into and maintaining any such strategic partnerships or other arrangements. Because any decision by us to issue debt or equity securities in the future will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any future financing transactions. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of additional equity or debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. The incurrence of additional indebtedness would result in increased fixed payment obligations and could involve additional restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, limitations on our ability to acquire, sell or license intellectual property rights and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Additionally, any future collaborations we enter into with third parties may provide capital in the near term, but limit our potential cash flow and revenue in the future. If we raise additional funds through strategic partnerships and alliances and licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies or product candidates, or grant licenses or other rights on unfavorable terms.
In addition, if one of our subsidiaries raises funds through the issuance of equity securities to third parties, our stockholders’ deficit interests in such subsidiary could be substantially diminished. If one of our subsidiaries raises additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our intellectual property rights, technologies or product candidates, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.
If we engage in other acquisitions or strategic partnerships, this may increase our capital requirements, dilute our stockholders, cause us to incur debt or assume contingent liabilities, and subject us to other risks.
We may engage in various acquisitions and strategic partnerships in the future, including licensing or acquiring complementary products, intellectual property rights, technologies, or businesses. Any acquisition or strategic partnership may entail numerous risks, including:
• increased operating expenses and cash requirements;
• the assumption of indebtedness or contingent liabilities;
• the issuance of our equity securities which would result in dilution to our stockholders;
• assimilation of operations, intellectual property, product candidates of an acquired company, including difficulties associated with integrating new personnel;
• the diversion of our management’s attention from our existing product programs and initiatives in pursuing such an acquisition or strategic partnership;
• difficulties in retaining key employees and personnel and uncertainties in our ability to maintain key business relationships;
• risks and uncertainties associated with the other party to such a transaction, including the prospects of that party and their existing products or product candidates and regulatory approvals; and
• our inability to generate revenue from acquired intellectual property, technology and/or products sufficient to meet our objectives or even to offset the associated transaction and maintenance costs.
In addition, if we undertake such a transaction, we may issue dilutive securities, assume or incur debt obligations, incur large one-time expenses and acquire intangible assets that could result in significant future amortization expense, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. For example, the Eidos Merger resulted in a reduction of our cash and dilutive issuances of our equity securities to the former Eidos stockholders. Any similar transactions in the future that require us to provide cash or stock consideration could harm our financial condition and negatively impact our existing stockholders.

Recent volatility in capital markets and lower market prices for our securities may affect our ability to access new capital through sales of shares of our common stock or issuance of indebtedness, which may harm our liquidity, increase our cost of capital, limit our ability to grow our business, pursue acquisitions or improve our operating infrastructure and restrict our ability to compete in our markets.
Our operations consume substantial amounts of cash, and we intend to continue to make significant investments to support our business growth, respond to business challenges or opportunities, develop new product candidates, retain or expand our current levels of personnel, improve our existing product candidates, enhance our operating infrastructure, and potentially acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Our future capital requirements may be significantly different from our current estimates and will depend on many factors, including the need to:
• finance unanticipated working capital requirements;
• continue the research and development of our existing product candidates and develop or enhance our technological infrastructure;
• pursue acquisitions, in-licenses or other strategic relationships; and
• respond to competitive pressures.
Accordingly, we may need to pursue additional equity, debt or other financings to meet our capital needs. With uncertainty in the capital markets and other factors, such financing may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. In addition, any additional debt financing secured by us may also subject us to increased fixed payment obligations and covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions such as capital-raising activities, incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends, and could involve additional restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. If we raise additional capital through marketing and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, other royalty monetization, or strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish certain valuable rights to our product candidates, technologies, future revenue streams or research programs or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. To meet our liquidity needs, we have previously relied, in part, on borrowed funds, and may do so again in the future. Recent and continued increases in interest rates could affect our ability to obtain working capital through borrowings such as bank credit lines and public or private sales of debt securities, which may result in lower liquidity, reduced working capital and other adverse impacts on our business. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, we could face significant limitations on our ability to invest in our operations and otherwise suffer harm to our business.
If we obtain a controlling interest in additional companies in the future, it could adversely affect our operating results and the value of our common stock, thereby disrupting our business.
As part of our strategy, we expect to form and invest in additional wholly-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Investments in our existing and any future subsidiaries involve numerous risks, including, but not necessarily limited to:
• risk of conducting research and development activities in new therapeutic areas or treatment modalities in which we have little to no experience;
• diversion of financial and managerial resources from existing operations;
• our ability to negotiate a proposed acquisition, in-license or investment in a timely manner or at a price or on terms and conditions favorable to us;
• our ability to combine and integrate a potential acquisition into our existing business to fully realize the benefits of such acquisition;
• the impact of regulatory reviews on a proposed acquisition, in-license or investment; and
• the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted with respect to a potential acquisition, in-license or investment.
117

Table of Contents

If we fail to properly evaluate potential acquisitions, in-licenses, investments or other transactions associated with the creation of new research and development programs or the maintenance of existing ones, we might not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such transaction, we might incur costs in excess of what we anticipate, and management resources and attention might be diverted from other necessary or valuable activities. In the future, we may engage in potential transactions that may divert our time and resources from our ongoing operations. In addition, from time to time we have pursued, and may in the future pursue, research and development programs through our wholly-owned subsidiaries and VIEs that we may ultimately determine not to advance, based on our ongoing assessment of the likelihood of success relative to the costs and risks associated with the program.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock has been and may be highly volatile, and purchasers of our common stock could incur substantial losses.
The market price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be volatile. Our stock price has been and may be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including the following:
• our failure to successfully commercialize Attruby and Beyonttra, or any product candidate that we may develop or for which we acquire commercial rights;
• adverse results or delays in our clinical trials, particularly those of our late-stage product candidates, or preclinical studies;
• inability for us to generate revenues, obtain additional funding, or to service our existing debt obligations, on reasonable terms or at all;
• reports of AEs or other negative results in clinical trials of third parties’ product candidates that target our product candidates’ target indications;
• any delay in filing an IND, BLA or NDA for our product candidates and any adverse development or perceived adverse development with respect to the FDA’s review of that IND, BLA or NDA, including any failure to obtain FDA clearance or approval with respect to such regulatory filing or submission;
• the termination of, or any other failure to develop successfully and commercialize our product candidates;
• announcements we make regarding our current product candidates, sales, dispositions or other divestitures of development programs or product candidates, acquisitions of potential new product candidates and companies and/or in-licensing;
• the termination of, or any other failure to maintain our existing license arrangements or enter into new licensing and collaboration agreements;
• failure by us or our licensors to prosecute, maintain or enforce our intellectual property rights;
• changes in laws or regulations applicable to future products;
• inability to obtain adequate clinical or commercial supply for our product candidates or the inability to do so at acceptable prices;
• adverse regulatory decisions, including failure to reach agreement with applicable regulatory authorities on the design or scope of our planned clinical trials;
• failure to obtain and maintain regulatory exclusivity for our product candidates;
• regulatory approval or commercialization of new products or other methods of treating our target disease indications by our competitors;
• failure to meet or exceed financial projections we may provide to the public or to the investment community;
• the perception of the pharmaceutical industry by the public, legislatures, regulators and the investment community;
• announcements of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by us, our strategic collaboration partners or our competitors;
• disputes or other developments relating to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain patent protection for our technologies;

• additions or departures of our key scientific or management personnel;
• significant lawsuits, including patent or stockholder litigation, against us;
• changes in the market valuations of similar companies;
• sales or potential sales of substantial amounts of our common stock;
• trading volume of our common stock;
• acts of war or periods of widespread civil unrest, including the increasingly volatile global economic conditions resulting from the conflicts in Ukraine and in the Middle East;
• general economic and market conditions, including inflationary pressures and stock market volatility; and
• continued increases in interest rates that increase the cost of our existing indebtedness any potential new indebtedness.
In addition, companies trading in the stock market in general, and The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Broad market and industry factors, including the effects of the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and in the Middle East, widespread inflationary pressures and interest rate increases, any global health emergency such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and global economic conditions on the global economy, may negatively affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.
We have in the past been and could be subject to securities class action litigation and other types of stockholder litigation.
The stock market in general, and Nasdaq and biotechnology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. In the past, we have been subject to stockholder litigation related to the Eidos Merger, and securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities. We could also be subject to other types of litigation, which may involve claims of breach of fiduciary duties by our directors or officers for misuse/mismanagement of company assets/resources or conflicts of interest. Any such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which would harm our business, operating results, or financial condition. Additionally, the dramatic increase in the cost of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance may cause us to opt for lower overall policy limits or to forgo insurance that we may otherwise rely on to cover significant defense costs, settlements, and damages awarded to plaintiffs.
Future sales and issuances of our common stock or rights to purchase common stock, including pursuant to our equity incentive plans, would result in additional dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders and could cause our stock price to fall.
We will need additional capital in the future to continue our planned operations. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution. We may sell common stock, convertible securities or other equity securities in one or more transactions at prices and in a manner we determine from time to time. If we sell common stock, convertible securities or other equity securities in more than one transaction, investors may be materially diluted by subsequent sales. These sales may also result in material dilution to our existing stockholders, and new investors could gain rights superior to our existing stockholders.
Pursuant to our 2021 Amended and Restated Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “A&R 2021 Plan”), we are authorized to grant stock options and other stock-based awards to our employees, directors and consultants. In addition, pursuant to our Amended and Restated 2019 Inducement Equity Plan, we are authorized to grant stock options and other stock-based awards to prospective officers and employees who are not currently employed by us or one of our subsidiaries. If our board of directors elects in the future to increase the number of shares available for future grant and, in the case of the A&R 2021 Plan, if our stockholders approve of any such further increase, our stockholders may experience additional dilution, and our stock price may fall.

Any sales of a significant portion of our total outstanding shares, including shares of common stock underlying resale registration statements filed on behalf of certain of our stockholders, into the market could cause the market price of our common stock to decline significantly.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares of common stock intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock.
Certain holders of our common stock have rights, subject to conditions, to require us to file registration statements covering their shares or to include their shares in registration statements that we may file for ourselves or other stockholders. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock underlying the resale registration statements on Form S-3/ASR filed on July 26, 2023 and November 2, 2023 in the public market by the selling stockholders named in these registration statements, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities, regardless of whether there is any relationship between such sales and the performance of our business. We may also file registration statements in the future that register a substantial number of shares of our common stock where if any additional shares are sold pursuant to these registration statements, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, the market price of our common stock could decline. We have also filed registration statements on Form S-8 registering the issuance of shares of common stock issued or reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation and equity inducement plans. Shares registered under these registration statements on Form S-8 can be freely sold in the public market upon issuance and once vested, subject to volume limitations applicable to affiliates. In addition, certain of our directors, executive officers, employees and affiliates have established or may in the future establish programmed selling plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the purpose of effecting sales of our common stock. If any of these additional shares are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, the market price of our common stock could decline.
If securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they publish negative evaluations of our stock, the price of our stock could decline.
The trading market for our common stock relies in part on the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more of the analysts covering our business downgrade their evaluations of our stock, the price of our stock could decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover our stock, we could lose visibility in the market for our stock, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.
Our principal stockholders and certain members of our management own a significant percentage of our stock and will be able to exert significant control over matters subject to stockholder approval.
Based upon our common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026, our beneficial stockholders, directors, and executive officers beneficially own 40.4% of our outstanding common stock. These stockholders will have the ability to influence us through their ownership positions. These stockholders may be able to determine all matters requiring stockholder approval. For example, these stockholders, acting together, may be able to control elections of directors, amendments of our organizational documents, or approval of any merger, sale of assets, or other major corporate transaction. In turn, this may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. This may prevent or discourage unsolicited acquisition proposals or offers for our common stock that you may believe are in your best interest as one of our stockholders. In certain circumstances, these stockholders’ interests as stockholders may differ or even conflict with the interests of our other stockholders.
Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us or increase the cost of acquiring us, even if doing so would benefit our stockholders or remove our current management.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions that may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us or changes in our management. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws include provisions that:
• authorize “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval and may contain voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to our common stock;
• create a classified Board of Directors whose members serve staggered three-year terms;
• specify that special meetings of our stockholders can be called only by our Board of Directors or stockholders holding at least 25% of our outstanding voting stock;
120

Table of Contents

• prohibit stockholder action by written consent;
• establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder approvals to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to our Board of Directors;
• provide that vacancies on our Board of Directors may be filled only by a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock then entitled to vote at an election of directors;
• specify that no stockholder is permitted to cumulate votes at any election of directors;
• expressly authorize our Board of Directors to modify, alter or repeal our amended and restated bylaws; and
• require supermajority votes of the holders of our common stock to amend specified provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws.
These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management.
In addition, because we are incorporated in Delaware, we are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which limits the ability of stockholders owning in excess of 15% of our outstanding voting stock to merge or combine with us. Any provision of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock, and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our common stock.
Our amended and restated bylaws designate specific courts as the exclusive forum for certain litigation that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.
Pursuant to our amended and restated bylaws, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any state law claim for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of or based on a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers or employees to us or our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws; (iv) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws; or (v) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware. Our amended and restated bylaws further provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the U.S. will be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. The forum selection clauses in our amended and restated bylaws may limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.
Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, which makes our future operating results difficult to predict and could cause our operating results to fall below expectations or our guidance.
Our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future, which makes it difficult for us to predict our future operating results. Our operating results may fluctuate due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control and may be difficult to predict, including but not limited to the following:
• our ability to successfully commercialize Attruby and Beyonttra or any of our product candidates, if approved, and the timing and costs of our commercialization activities;
• our quarterly financial results, including net product revenue from sales of Attruby, license and services and royalty revenue from net sales of Beyonttra or revenue from any of our product candidates, if approved;
• the timing, results and cost of, and level of investment in, our clinical development activities for our current product candidates and any other product candidates we may identify and pursue, which may change from time to time;
• the cost of manufacturing Attruby and Beyonttra and our current product candidates and the related materials or other product candidates that we may identify, which may vary depending on the quantity of production and the terms of agreements with manufacturers;
121

Table of Contents

• our ability to conduct our ongoing and planned clinical trials in accordance with our current plans and to obtain regulatory approval for our current product candidates or other product candidates that we may identify, and the timing and scope of any such approvals we may receive;
• the timing and success or failure of clinical trials for competing product candidates, or any other change in the competitive landscape of our industry, including consolidation among our competitors or partners;
• expenditures that we will or may incur to acquire or develop additional product candidates and technologies;
• our ability to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel;
• the level of demand for Attruby and Beyonttra and our current product candidates or other product candidates that we may identify, should they receive approval, which may vary significantly;
• future accounting pronouncements or changes in our accounting policies;
• future tax regulation changes that impact effective tax rates;
• the success of our restructuring initiatives;
• the risk/benefit profile, cost and reimbursement policies with respect to Attruby and Beyonttra and our current product candidates or other product candidates that we may identify, if approved, and existing and potential future drugs that compete with our products and product candidates;
• changes in global economic and market conditions, including inflationary pressures, interest rate increases, supply chain shortages, tariffs, and stock market volatility; and
• acts of war, armed conflicts and political or civil unrest, including volatile global economic conditions resulting from the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
The cumulative effects of these factors could result in large fluctuations and unpredictability in our quarterly and annual operating results. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. This variability and unpredictability could also result in our failing to meet the expectations of industry or financial analysts or investors for any period. If our operating results fall below the expectations of analysts or investors or below any forecasts we may provide to the market, or if the forecasts we provide to the market are below the expectations of analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could decline substantially.
Our future ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.
We have incurred substantial losses during our history and we do not expect to become profitable in the near future and we may never achieve profitability. To the extent that we continue to generate taxable losses, unused losses will carry forward indefinitely if not utilized, subject to expiration of such carryforwards in the case of federal net operating loss carryforwards generated prior to 2018. In addition, under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” generally defined as a greater than 50 percentage point change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income or taxes may be limited. Our existing net operating losses or credits may be subject to limitations arising from previous ownership changes and if we undergo future ownership changes, many of which may be outside of our control, our ability to utilize our net operating losses or credits could be further limited by Sections 382 and 383 of the Code. Accordingly, we may not be able to utilize a material portion of our net operating losses or credits. In addition, the amount of post-2017 NOLs that we are permitted to deduct in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2024 is limited to 80% of our taxable income in such year.

Changes in tax laws or regulations may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in tax laws or regulations, or changes in interpretations of existing tax laws and regulations, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, possibly with retroactive effect. For example, on July 4, 2025, tax reform legislation included in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. Key corporate tax provisions include the restoration of 100% bonus depreciation, immediate expensing for domestic research and experimental expenditures, changes to Section 163(j) interest limitations, updates to GILTI and FDII rules, amendments to energy credits, and expanded Section 162(m) aggregation requirements. Outside of the U.S., various governments and organizations are increasingly focused on tax reform and other legislative or regulatory action to increase tax revenue, including the base erosion and profit shifting (“BEPS”) project that is being led by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) and other initiatives led by the OECD or the European Commission. With our international operations and potential expansion, these types of changes to the taxation of our activities could increase the amount of taxes imposed on our business, and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We have never and do not currently intend to pay dividends on our common stock, and, consequently, our stockholders’ ability to achieve a return on their investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our common stock.
We have never paid cash dividends on any of our capital stock and do not currently intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. We currently intend to invest our future earnings, if any, to fund our growth. Therefore, you are not likely to receive any dividends on your common stock for the foreseeable future. Since we do not intend to pay dividends, your ability to receive a return on your investment will depend on any future appreciation in the market value of our common stock. There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate or even maintain the price at which our holders have purchased it.
We have incurred and will continue to incur significant costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
As a public company, we incur significant legal, tax, accounting and other expenses which are greater than those for private companies. We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, the listing requirements of the Nasdaq and other applicable securities laws and regulations. For example, the Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file with the SEC, annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition and that of our consolidated subsidiaries. These reporting requirements also continue to change, which has created uncertainty for public companies like us, and accommodating the evolving standards may require additional legal and financial compliance costs.
General Risk Factors
Significant political, trade, regulatory developments, and other circumstances beyond our control, including as a result of the current administration’s tariff policy, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
We operate globally and plan to sell our products in countries throughout the world. Significant political, trade, or regulatory developments in the jurisdictions in which we sell our products, such as those stemming from the change in the U.S. federal administration, are difficult to predict and may have a material adverse effect on us. Similarly, changes in U.S. federal policy that affect the geopolitical landscape could give rise to circumstances outside our control that could have negative impacts on our business operations. For example, in April 2025, the U.S. imposed “reciprocal” tariffs, which were broad tariffs on imports from virtually all countries, with particularly high tariffs on imports from China. The U.S. Supreme Court invalidated the reciprocal tariffs on February 20, 2026; however, the current administration has imposed new tariffs under different authorities and President Trump has stated that he intends to use additional authorities to effect historically elevated tariffs. In response to higher U.S. tariffs, some countries have implemented retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods, while others have negotiated agreements regarding U.S.-imposed tariffs. Historically, increased tariffs have led to more trade and political tensions and the status of these agreements between the U.S. and the various countries, in light of the U.S. Supreme Court’s February 20, 2026 decision, remains unclear. Moreover, the U.S. has published special tariffs on certain imported pharmaceutical products, the administration has scheduled to take effect in mid-2026. Political tensions as a result of trade policies could reduce trade volume, investment, technological exchange and other economic activities between major international economies, resulting in a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets. Any changes in political, trade, regulatory, and economic conditions, including U.S. trade policies, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

If we fail to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, we could become subject to fines or penalties or incur costs that could harm our business.
We are subject to numerous environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing laboratory procedures and the handling, use, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes. Our operations involve the use of hazardous and flammable materials, including chemicals and biological materials. Our operations also produce hazardous waste products. We generally contract with third parties for the disposal of these materials and wastes. We cannot eliminate the risk of contamination or injury from these materials. In the event of contamination or injury resulting from our use of hazardous materials, we could be held liable for any resulting damages, and any liability could exceed our resources. We also could incur significant costs associated with civil or criminal fines and penalties for failure to comply with such laws and regulations.
Although we maintain workers’ compensation insurance to cover us for costs and expenses that we may incur due to injuries to our employees resulting from the use of hazardous materials, this insurance may not provide adequate coverage against potential liabilities. We do not maintain insurance for environmental liability or toxic tort claims that may be asserted against us in connection with our storage or disposal of biological, hazardous or radioactive materials.
In addition, we may incur substantial costs in order to comply with current or future environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. These current or future laws and regulations may impair our research, development or production efforts. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations also may result in substantial fines, penalties or other sanctions.
Unfavorable global economic conditions could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our ability to invest in and expand our business and meet our financial obligations, to attract and retain third-party contractors and collaboration partners and to raise additional capital depends on our operating and financial performance, which, in turn, is subject to numerous factors, including the prevailing economic and political conditions and financial, business and other factors beyond our control, such as the rate of unemployment, the number of uninsured persons in the U.S., political influences and inflationary pressures. For example, an overall decrease in or loss of insurance coverage among individuals in the U.S. due to high levels of unemployment, underemployment or the repeal of certain provisions of the ACA, may decrease the demand for healthcare services and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, the availability of healthcare services and resources can be constrained due to a public health emergency, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic. If fewer patients are seeking medical care because they do not have insurance coverage or are unable to obtain medical care for their conditions due to resource constraints on the healthcare system, we may experience difficulties in any eventual commercialization of our product candidates and our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected.
In addition, our results of operations could be adversely affected by general conditions in the global economy and in the global financial markets upon which pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies such as us are dependent for sources of capital. In the past, global financial crises have caused extreme volatility and disruptions in the capital and credit markets. A severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to our business, including a reduced ability to raise additional capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all, and weakened demand for our product candidates. A weak or declining economy could also strain our suppliers, possibly resulting in supply disruption. Any of the foregoing could harm our business, and we cannot anticipate all of the ways in which a public health emergency, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, or similar outbreaks, the current economic climate, and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.
Further, military conflicts or wars (such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or the armed conflicts in the Middle East) can damage or disrupt international commerce and the global economy. It is not possible to predict the broader or longer-term consequences of such conflicts, or the sanctions imposed to date, which could include further sanctions and counter-sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, retaliatory cyber-attacks, geopolitical shifts and adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions, security conditions, currency exchange rates and financial markets. The potential effects of such conflicts include but are not limited to changes in laws and regulations affecting our business, fluctuations in foreign currency markets, potential supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures, and increased market volatility and uncertainty that could have an adverse impact on macroeconomic factors that affect our business, financial condition, stock price and results of operations.

Our internal computer systems, or those used by our third-party collaborators, contractors or consultants, may fail or suffer cybersecurity incidents or breaches, which could result in a material disruption of our development programs and business operations.
Despite the implementation of security measures, our internal computer systems and those of our CROs, CMOs, third-party logistics providers, third-party collaboration and commercialization partners, and other contractors and consultants may be vulnerable to damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, natural disasters, terrorism, cybersecurity threats, war, and telecommunication and electrical failures. Like other companies in our industry, we have, from time to time, experienced threats to and security incidents related to our data and systems, including phishing attacks and attacks to the security of the systems of our third-party vendors and service providers. If a material event were to occur and cause interruptions in our operations, it could result in a material disruption of our development programs and business operations. For example, the loss of clinical trial data from completed, ongoing or future clinical trials or commercialization information could result in delays in our regulatory approval or commercialization efforts and significantly increase our costs to recover or reproduce the data.
Likewise, we rely on third parties for research and development, the manufacture and supply of drug product and drug substance and to conduct clinical trials and commercialization activities. We depend on these third parties to implement adequate controls and safeguards to protect against and report cybersecurity incidents or breaches. If they fail to do so, we may suffer financial and other harm, including to our information, operations, performance, and reputation. To the extent that any disruption or cybersecurity incident breach were to result in a loss of, or damage to, our data or systems, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur liability and the further development and commercialization of our product candidates could be delayed. We also rely on third-party service providers for aspects of our internal control over financial reporting, and such service providers may experience a material system failure or fail to carry out their obligations in other respects, which may impact our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements, thus harming our operating results, our ability to operate our business, and our investors’ view of us.
Cybersecurity threats, both on premises and in the cloud, are evolving and include, but are not limited to: malicious software, destructive malware, ransomware, social engineering attacks (including phishing attacks) and other attempts to gain unauthorized access to systems or data, disruption to operations, critical systems or denial of service attacks; unauthorized release of confidential, personal or otherwise protected information; corruption of data, networks or systems; harm to individuals; and loss of assets. In addition, we could be impacted by cybersecurity threats or other disruptions or vulnerabilities found in products or services we use that are provided to us by third-parties. Although we devote resources to protect our information systems, the techniques used by criminal elements to attack computer systems are sophisticated, change frequently and may originate from less regulated and remote areas of the world. As a result, we may not be able to address these techniques proactively or implement adequate preventative measures. These events, if not prevented or effectively mitigated, could damage our reputation, require remedial actions and lead to loss of business, regulatory actions, potential liability and other financial losses.
Our contracts may not contain limitations of liability, and even where they do, there can be no assurance that limitations of liability in our contracts are sufficient to protect us from liabilities, damages, or claims related to our privacy and data security obligations. Certain data breaches must also be reported to affected individuals, certain other stakeholders, and various government and/or regulatory agencies, and in some cases to the media, under provisions of HIPAA, as amended by HITECH, other U.S. federal and state law, and requirements of non-U.S. jurisdictions, including the EU GDPR and relevant member state law in the EU and other foreign laws, and financial penalties may also apply. Such disclosures are costly, and the disclosure or the failure to comply with such requirements could lead to adverse consequences.
Cybersecurity liability insurance is difficult to obtain and may not cover any damages we would sustain based on any breach of our computer security protocols or other cybersecurity attack. Our insurance policies may not be adequate to compensate us for the potential losses arising from breaches, failures or disruptions of our infrastructure, catastrophic events and disasters or otherwise. In addition, such insurance may not be available to us in the future on economically reasonable terms, or at all. Further, our insurance may not cover all claims made against us and defending a suit, regardless of its merit, could be costly and divert management’s attention.

We or the third parties upon whom we depend may be adversely affected by climate change, earthquakes, outbreak of disease, or other natural disasters and our business continuity and disaster recovery plans may not adequately protect us from a serious disaster.
Climate change, earthquakes, outbreak of disease, or other natural disasters, including extreme weather events and changing weather patterns such as storms, flooding, droughts, fires and temperature changes, which have become more common, could severely disrupt our operations, and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. If a natural disaster, extreme weather risk, power outage, cybersecurity attack or other event occurred that prevented us from using all or a significant portion of our headquarters, that damaged critical infrastructure, such as the manufacturing facilities of our third-party CMOs, or that otherwise disrupted operations, it may be difficult or, in certain cases, impossible for us to continue our business for a substantial period of time. For example, we may experience delays in the supply of drug product for our clinical trials as a result of disruptions to the operations of the manufacturing facilities of some of our third-party CMOs. The disaster recovery and business continuity plans we have in place currently are limited and are unlikely to prove adequate in the event of a serious disaster or similar event. In addition, as noted above, cybersecurity liability insurance is difficult to obtain and may not cover any damages we would sustain based on any breach of our computer security protocols or other cybersecurity attack. We may incur substantial expenses as a result of the limited nature of our disaster recovery and business continuity plans, which, particularly when taken together with our lack of earthquake insurance, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Climate change or legal, regulatory or market measures to address climate change may negatively affect our business and results of operations.
Climate change resulting from increased concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere could present risks to our operations, including an adverse impact on global temperatures, weather patterns and the frequency and severity of extreme weather and natural disasters. Natural disasters and extreme weather conditions, such as a hurricane, tornado, earthquake, wildfire or flooding, may pose physical risks to our facilities and disrupt the operation of our supply chain. The impacts of the changing climate on water resources may result in water scarcity, limiting our ability to access sufficient high-quality water in certain locations, which may increase operational costs. Concern over climate change may also result in new or additional legal or regulatory requirements designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and/or mitigate the effects of climate change on the environment. If such laws or regulations are more stringent than current legal or regulatory obligations, we may experience disruption in, or an increase in the costs associated with sourcing, manufacturing and distribution of our product candidates, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Further, the impacts of climate change have an influence on customer preferences, and failure to provide climate-friendly products could potentially result in loss of market share.
The increasing use of social media platforms presents new risks and challenges.
Social media is increasingly being used to communicate about our research, product candidates, investigational medicines, and the diseases our product candidates and investigational medicines are being developed to treat. Social media practices in the biopharmaceutical industry continue to evolve and regulations relating to such use are not always clear. This evolution creates uncertainty and risk of noncompliance with regulations applicable to our business, resulting in potential regulatory actions against us. For example, patients may use social media channels to comment on their experience in an ongoing blinded clinical study or to report an alleged adverse event. When such disclosures occur, there is a risk that we fail to monitor and comply with applicable adverse event reporting obligations or we may not be able to defend our business or the public’s legitimate interests in the face of the political and market pressures generated by social media due to restrictions on what we may say about our development candidates, investigational medicines and approved products. There is also a risk of inappropriate disclosure of sensitive information or negative or inaccurate posts or comments about us on any social networking website. If any of these events were to occur or we otherwise fail to comply with applicable regulations, we could incur liability, face regulatory actions, or incur other harm to our business.

Our business operations may subject us to disputes, claims and lawsuits, which may be costly and time-consuming and could materially and adversely impact our financial position and results of operations.
From time to time, we may become involved in disputes, claims and lawsuits relating to our business operations. For example, we may, from time to time, face or initiate claims related to intellectual property matters, employment matters, or commercial disputes. Any dispute, claim or lawsuit may divert management’s attention away from our business, we may incur significant expenses in addressing or defending any dispute, claim or lawsuit, and we may be required to pay damage awards or settlements or become subject to equitable remedies that could adversely affect our operations and financial results. Litigation related to these disputes may be costly and time-consuming and could materially and adversely impact our financial position and results of operations if resolved against us. In addition, the uncertainty associated with litigation could lead to increased volatility in our stock price.
