In July 2025, we terminated the 2024 Sales Agreement and entered into a new Open Market Sale Agreement SM (“2025 Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies, as the sales agent, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, through Jefferies, shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200.0 million by any method deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act. The shares are offered and sold pursuant to our shelf registration statement on Form S-3. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we sold an insignificant number of shares of our Class A common stock under the 2025 Sales Agreement.

Previous wording
As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the public or private sale of equity, government or private party grants, debt financings or other capital sources, including potential collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be or could be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders. Debt financing and equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we are unable to obtain additional funding, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of our research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or any commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect our business prospects, or we may be unable to continue operations. If we raise funds through strategic collaborations or other similar arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technology, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or may have to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us and/or may reduce the value of our shares. Our ability to raise additional funds may be adversely impacted by potential worsening global economic conditions and disruptions to and volatility in the credit and financial markets in the United States and worldwide. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we cannot predict the timing or amount of increased expenses, and there is no assurance that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.
Current wording
Based on our current operating plan, we do not believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2026, will be sufficient to fund our obligations for the 12 months following the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on August 10, 2026. Accordingly, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are issued. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. We will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the public or private sale of equity, government or private party grants, debt financings or other capital sources, including potential collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be or could be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders.
