SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contains forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future results that are subject to the safe harbors created under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. We generally identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “assume,” “potential,” “continue” or other similar words or the negative of these terms. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The outcomes of the events described in these forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2026 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”), and elsewhere in this report. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance upon these forward-looking statements. We cannot assure you that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and the timing of events and circumstances and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, statements about:

•our ability to commercialize and the timing of commercializing our products and product candidates, if approved;

•the potential therapeutic benefits and effectiveness of our products and product candidates;

•the progress of, timing of and expected amount of expenses associated with our commercialization, research, and development activities;

•the size and characteristics of the markets that may be addressed by our products and product candidates;

•the expected timing of clinical trials for our product candidates and the availability of data and results of those trials;

•the progress of, outcome of and timing of any regulatory approval for any of our product candidates;

•our expectations regarding federal, state and foreign tax, legal and regulatory requirements;

•our intention to seek to establish, and the potential benefits to us from, any strategic collaborations or partnerships for the development or sale of our products and product candidates;

•our expectations as to future financial performance, expense levels and liquidity sources;

•the sufficiency of our cash resources to fund our operating expenses and capital investment requirements for any period;

•our ability to raise additional funds if needed on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, in order to support our continued operations; and

•other factors discussed elsewhere in this report.

The forward-looking statements made in this report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We have included or made reference to important factors in the cautionary statements included in this report, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors” where we make reference to Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future developments, including acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make. Except as required by law, we do not assume any intent to update any forward-looking statements after the date on which the statement is made, whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances or otherwise.
