•We are developing sotagliflozin, an orally-delivered small molecule drug candidate, as a treatment for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or HCM, and are conducting the SONATA-HCM pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of sotagliflozin in that indication.

Current wording

•We are developing sotagliflozin, an orally-delivered small molecule drug candidate, as a treatment for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or HCM, and have completed patient enrollment in our SONATA-HCM pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of sotagliflozin in that indication.

Previous wording

Since our inception, we have incurred significant losses and, as of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2.0 billion. Our losses have resulted principally from costs incurred in research and development, selling, general and administrative costs associated with our operations, and non-cash stock-based compensation expenses associated with stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and consultants. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, external research and material costs related to our nonclinical efforts and clinical trials, and other expenses related to our drug discovery and development programs. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for executive, sales and marketing, and administrative personnel, professional fees and other corporate expenses, including information technology, facilities costs and general legal activities. We expect to continue to incur significant research and development costs in connection with the continuing research and development of our drug candidates. As a result, we will need to generate significantly higher revenues to achieve profitability.

Current wording

Since our inception, we have incurred significant losses and, as of June 30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2.1 billion. Our losses have resulted principally from costs incurred in research and development, selling, general and administrative costs associated with our operations, and non-cash stock-based compensation expenses associated with stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and consultants. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, external research and material costs related to our nonclinical efforts and clinical trials, and other expenses related to our drug discovery and development programs. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for executive, sales and marketing, and administrative personnel, professional fees and other corporate expenses, including information technology, facilities costs and general legal activities. We expect to continue to incur significant research and development costs in connection with the continuing research and development of our drug candidates. As a result, we will need to generate significantly higher revenues to achieve profitability.

Previous wording

Revenues were $21.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 included $20.0 million in development milestone revenue recognized from the Novo Nordisk licensing agreement. See Note 5, Collaborations and Strategic Alliances, for further information. Total revenues for each of the periods presented also include product revenues from sales of INPEFA.

Current wording

Revenues were $0.7 million and $28.9 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and $21.8 million and $30.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 included $20.0 million in development milestone revenue recognized from the Novo Nordisk licensing agreement. Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 included $27.5 million in licensing revenue recognized from the Novo Nordisk licensing agreement. See Note 5, Collaborations and Strategic Alliances, for further information. Total revenues for each of the periods presented also include product revenues from sales of INPEFA.

Previous wording

Cost of sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $0.1 million and $0.03 million, respectively, and primarily consist of third-party manufacturing costs and freight associated with sales of INPEFA. Prior to receiving regulatory approval of INPEFA in May 2023, we had completed or begun the manufacturing of certain INPEFA raw materials. These raw materials were either received at “zero-cost” to us in conjunction with a terminated agreement in 2019 or recorded as research and development expense. Based on our expectations for future manufacturing costs, we estimate these amounts totaled approximately $39.0 million. We began capitalizing inventory manufactured subsequent to regulatory approval of INPEFA as the related costs were expected to be recoverable through the commercialization of the product. At March 31, 2026, substantially all of the “zero-cost” INPEFA raw materials remains available to us. However, the time period over which this inventory is consumed will depend on a number of factors, including the amount of future INPEFA sales, use of this inventory to satisfy manufacturing and supply agreements associated with strategic alliances (for further information, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025) or in clinical development or other research activities, production lead times, and/or the ability to utilize inventory prior to its expiration date. Any future sales of INPEFA will utilize this “zero-cost” inventory and will result in a lower average per unit cost of materials during that period. We estimate our cost of goods sold as a percentage of net product revenue will be less than 10% subsequent to the utilization of all of the remaining “zero-cost” inventory.

Current wording

Cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were less than $0.1 million for each of the periods and during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. Cost of sales primarily consist of third-party manufacturing costs and freight associated with sales of INPEFA. Prior to receiving regulatory approval of INPEFA in May 2023, we had completed or begun the manufacturing of certain raw materials that were either received at “zero-cost” to us in conjunction with a terminated agreement in 2019 or recorded as research and development expense. We began capitalizing inventory manufactured subsequent to regulatory approval of INPEFA to the extent the related costs were expected to be recoverable through commercial sales.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

The time period over which the “zero-cost” materials is consumed will depend on a number of factors, including the amount utilized for future commercial production and sold to customers, the amount required to satisfy manufacturing and supply agreements associated with strategic alliances (for further information, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025) or amounts utilized in clinical development or other research and development activities, production lead times, and/or the ability to utilize inventory prior to its expiration date.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

As of June 30, 2026, we estimate the remaining amount of the zero-cost materials total approximately $21 million based on future manufacturing costs. A portion of this remaining “zero-cost” inventory will continue to support future sales of INPEFA which will result in a lower average per unit cost of materials until such inventory is depleted. Subsequent to the utilization of all of the remaining “zero-cost” inventory, we estimate our cost of goods sold as a percentage of net product revenue will be less than 10%.
