S****tatistical and Other Industry and Market Data
This Annual Report includes statistical and other industry and market data and contains estimates and information concerning our industry and our business, including estimated market size and projected growth rates of the markets for our drug candidates. Unless otherwise expressly stated, we obtained this industry, business, market, medical and other information from reports, research surveys, studies and similar data prepared by third parties, industry, medical and general publications, government data and similar sources.
This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations. Although we are responsible for all of the disclosure contained in this Annual Report and we believe the third-party market position, market opportunity and market size data included in this Annual Report are reliable, we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of this third-party data. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industry in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in “Risk Factors.” These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in these publications and reports.
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act’), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) adopted pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Annual Report, including statements regarding our future results of operations, financial condition, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or “would,” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions.
We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, other factors and assumptions, including the risks described in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report, regarding, among other things:
| ● | our ability to implement our product development and business strategies, including our ability to continue to pursue development pathways and regulatory strategies for IHL-42X, PSX-001, and IHL-675A and any of our other drug candidates; |
| ● | estimates regarding market size and related future growth rates; |
| ● | our research and development (“R&D”) activities, including clinical testing and manufacturing and the related costs and timing; |
| ● | the possibility that we may be required to conduct additional clinical studies or trials for our drug candidates and the consequences resulting from the delay in obtaining necessary regulatory approvals; |
| ● | the timing, scope or likelihood of regulatory filings and approvals and our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals for our drug candidates for any indication; |
| ● | the pricing, coverage and reimbursement of our drug candidates, if approved and commercialized; |
| ● | the rate and degree of market acceptance and clinical utility of our drug candidates; |
| ● | our expectations around feedback from and discussions with regulators, regulatory development paths and with respect to Controlled Substances Act designation; |
ii
| ● | our ability to maintain effective patent rights and other intellectual property protection for our drug candidates, and to prevent competitors from using technologies we consider important to the successful development and commercialization of our drug candidates; |
| ● | our estimates regarding expenses, revenues, financial performance and capital requirements, including the length of time our capital resources will sustain our operations; |
| ● | our ability to commercialize drug candidates and to generate revenues; |
| ● | our financial condition, including our ability to obtain the funding necessary to advance the development of our drug candidates and our ability to continue as a going concern; |
| ● | our ability to comply with the provisions and requirements of our debt arrangements and to pay amounts owed, including any amounts that may be accelerated; |
| ● | our ability to retain and attract qualified employees, directors, consultants and advisors; |
| ● | our ability to continue to comply with applicable privacy laws and protect confidential information from security breaches; |
| ● | how recent and potential future changes in healthcare policy could negatively impact our business and financial condition; |
| ● | the extent to which global economic and political developments, including existing regional conflicts, pandemics, natural disasters, and the indirect and/or long-term impact of inflation, will affect our business operations, clinical trials, or financial condition; and |
| ● | any statement of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. |
These risks are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Annual Report may include additional factors that could harm our business and financial performance.
You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and operating results. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Annual Report or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Annual Report. While we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.
We qualify all our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.
As used in this Annual Report, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise indicates, references to “Incannex,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or similar terms refer to Incannex Healthcare Inc., and our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
