Previous report
Changes in funding or disruptions at the FDA, the SEC and other government agencies caused by funding shortages or global health concerns, or changes in policy could hinder their ability to hire and retain key leadership and other personnel, or otherwise prevent new or modified products from being developed, approved or commercialized in a timely manner or at all, or otherwise prevent those agencies from performing normal business functions on which the operation of our business may rely, which could negatively impact our business.
Previous report
The ability of the FDA to review and approve new products can be affected by a variety of factors, including government budget and funding levels, ability to hire and retain key personnel and accept the payment of user fees, and statutory, regulatory and policy changes and other events that may otherwise affect the FDA’s ability to perform routine functions. Average review times at the FDA have fluctuated in recent years as a result. In addition, government funding of the SEC and other government agencies on which our operations may rely, including those that fund research and development activities is subject to the political process, which is inherently fluid and unpredictable.
Previous report
Disruptions at the FDA and other agencies may also slow the time necessary for new drugs to be reviewed and/or approved by necessary government agencies, which would adversely affect our business. For example, over the past decade, the U.S. government shut down several times, including beginning on October 1, 2025, and certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA and the SEC, had to furlough critical employees and stop critical activities. The duration of the current government shutdown is unknown.
Previous report
If a prolonged government shutdown occurs, or a widespread freeze on federal funding [continues or] occurs in the future, or if global health concerns prevent the FDA or other regulatory authorities from conducting their regular inspections, reviews or other regulatory activities, it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA to timely review and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Further, in our operations as a public company, future government shutdowns or delays could impact our ability to access the public markets and obtain necessary capital in order to properly capitalize and continue our operations.
Previous report
Significant economic, trade, regulatory, or geopolitical developments, and other circumstances beyond our control, could have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Previous report
Significant economic, trade, regulatory, or geopolitical developments are difficult to predict and may have a material effect on us. The U.S. recently imposed tariffs on virtually all imports to the U.S. and significantly higher reciprocal tariffs applicable to imports from many countries, certain of which reciprocal tariffs were subsequently temporarily paused. If tariffs are broadly imposed it could lead to additional corresponding punitive actions by the countries with which the U.S. trades. Historically, tariffs have led to increased trade and political tensions, between not only the U.S. and China, but also between the U.S. and other countries in the international community. Political tensions 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, or new legislative and/or regulatory developments, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Until we know how such changes may impact our business and the business of our competitors, suppliers and other parties we work with over the long term, we will not know if, overall, we will benefit from them or be negatively affected by them.

Previous wording
Since our inception, we have focused substantially all of our efforts and financial resources on developing our proprietary QuEENTM discovery engine, our proprietary MGD library and our initial pipeline of product candidates. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the issuance and sale of convertible promissory notes, convertible preferred stock, public offerings of our common stock or warrants to purchase common stock, registered direct offerings, and our collaboration agreements with Roche and Novartis. From our inception through the date hereof, we raised an aggregate of $836.0 million of gross proceeds from such transactions. As of September 30, 2025, our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities were $396.2 million. We have incurred significant operating losses since our inception, and we had an accumulated deficit of $431.1 million as of September 30, 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we reported net income of $7.5 million. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we reported net losses of $72.7 million and $135.4 million, respectively. Substantially all of our operating losses have resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and initial pipeline programs and from general and administrative costs associated with our operations. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses over the next several years and for the foreseeable future. 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 expect our expenses to significantly increase in connection with our ongoing activities, as we:

In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for our current or future product candidates, we will incur significant expenses relating to our commercialization of such product candidates via our sales, marketing, product manufacturing and distribution efforts. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing pharmaceutical drugs, including in light of economic fluctuations, we are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if at all.
