  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. As permitted under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP), certain notes and other information have been omitted from the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC.

In management's opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the Company's future quarterly or annual results.

The Company, which is primarily located in the U.S., operates inone operating segment.

Reclassifications

The prior year amounts related to the caption Inventory valuation write-down in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. The reclassification did not affect the other condensed consolidated financial statements.

Consolidation

The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These are collectively referred to herein as "Supernus" or "the Company." Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and each of its subsidiaries are distinct legal entities. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidation of entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. In determining whether there is a controlling financial interest, the Company considers if it has a majority of the voting interests of the entity, or if the entity is a variable interest entity (VIE) and if the Company is the primary beneficiary. In determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company evaluates whether it has both: the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance; and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to that VIE. The Company's judgment with respect to its level of influence or control of an entity involves the consideration of various factors, including the form of an ownership interest; representation in the entity's governance; the size of the investment; estimates of future cash flows; the ability to participate in policymaking decisions; and the rights of the other investors to participate in the decision making process, including the right to liquidate the entity, if applicable. If the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and an ownership interest is maintained in the entity, the interest is accounted for under the equity or cost methods of accounting, as appropriate.

The Company continuously assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE as changes to existing relationships or future transactions may affect its conclusions.

Use of Estimates

The Company bases its estimates on: historical experience; forecasts; information received from its service providers; information from other sources, including public and proprietary sources; and other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from the Company's estimates. The Company periodically evaluates the methodologies employed in making its estimates.

Advertising Expense

Advertising expense includes the cost of promotional materials and activities, such as printed materials and digital marketing, marketing programs and speaker programs. The cost of the Company's advertising efforts is expensed as incurred.

The Company incurred $25.3 million and $51.4 million in advertising expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and $23.5 million and $47.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. These expenses are recorded as a component of Selling, general and administrative expensesin the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

Insurance Recoveries

The Company has several policies with third-party insurers that provide for the recovery of certain costs incurred by the Company. The Company records its rights to insurance recoveries as a receivables when the respective costs are reimbursable under applicable insurance policies, it is probable that such costs will be reimbursed, and reimbursement can be reasonably estimated. As such, the Company estimates the percentage of costs that will be reimbursed by the insurance provider to determine the proper amount to record for the insurance recovery receivable.

Insurance recoveries recognized in fiscal year 2025 were recorded as a reduction to Selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company had $1.0 million and $5.4 million of insurance recoveries during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. There wereno insurance recoveries during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. Insurance recovery receivable was $5.4 million and $4.0 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

  1. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of an asset or liability represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between unrelated market participants.

The Company reports the fair value of assets and liabilities using a three level measurement hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. Fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:

Level 1—Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at measurement date for identical assets.

Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market, either directly or indirectly (e.g., interest rates; yield curves).

Level 3—Valuations using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions. These are based on the best information available, including the Company's own data.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value

The Company's financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (dollars in thousands):

  1. Contingent Consideration

The following table sets forth the contingent consideration for the USWM Acquisition and Adamas Acquisition (as defined below) (dollars in thousands):

June 30, 2025December 31, 2024
(unaudited)
Reported under the following captions in the consolidated balance sheets:
Contingent consideration, current portion$—$47,340
Total$—$47,340

The Company's contingent consideration liabilities are related to the USWM Acquisition in 2020 and the Adamas Acquisition in 2021. The contingent consideration liabilities are measured at fair value using either a Monte Carlo simulation or the income approach. The Company classifies contingent consideration liabilities as Level 3 fair value measurements in the period where significant unobservable inputs were used to estimate fair value. These reflect the inputs and assumptions the Company believes would be made by market participants. Changes in any of those inputs together or in isolation may result in significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. The change in fair value is reported on the condensed consolidated statement of earnings in Contingent consideration loss (gain).

USWM Contingent Consideration

On June 9, 2020 (the USWM Closing Date), the Company completed its acquisition of all the outstanding equity of USWM Enterprises, LLC (USWM Enterprises) (USWM Acquisition). The USWM Acquisition included potential additional contingent consideration payments for regulatory and development milestones and sales-based milestones. In February 2025, the Company paid the $25 million milestone related to the FDA's approval of ONAPGO in February 2025. ONAPGO was launched in April 2025 and the $30 million milestone payment related to the commercial launch of ONAPGO, subject to certain holdbacks as permitted under the Sale and Purchase Agreement Relating to USWM Enterprises, LLC, dated April 28, 2020, by and between US WorldMeds Partners, LLC and Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (the "USWM Sale and Purchase Agreement") became due and payable. Of the $30 million, the Company paid $2.3 million and $27.7 million was held back in the second quarter of 2025. The amount held was reclassified to Other current liabilitiesin the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 as the milestone had been met but payment remains subject to certain holdbacks permitted under the USWM Sale and Purchase Agreement. During the third quarter of 2025 USWorldsMeds Partners, LLC filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware seeking to compel the Company to release the held back amount of the milestone payment.

Adamas Contingent Consideration

On November 24, 2021 (the Adamas Closing Date), the Company completed its acquisition of all the outstanding equity of Adamas (Adamas Acquisition). The Adamas Acquisition included payment oftwo non-tradable contingent value rights (CVRs) each of which represents the contractual right to receive a contingent payment upon the achievement of the applicable aggregate worldwide net product sales of GOCOVRI.

Each CVR represents the contractual right to receive a contingent payment of $0.50 per share in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, upon the achievement of the applicable milestone (each such amount, a Milestone Payment) in accordance with the terms of a Contingent Value Rights Agreement entered into between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as rights agent, as further defined in the CVR agreement. Achievement of the first milestone did not occur, and accordingly the first Milestone Payment did not become payable. As of June 30, 2025, only one of the CVR remains. The remaining Milestone Payment is payable (subject to certain terms and conditions) upon the first occurrence of the achievement of aggregate worldwide net sales of GOCOVRI in excess of $225 million during any consecutive 12-month period ending on or before December 31, 2025 (2025 Milestone). The 2025 Milestone may only be achieved once.

As of June 30, 2025, the possible outcomes for the remaining 2025 Milestone contingent consideration is $0 or $25.0 million on an undiscounted basis. As of June 30, 2025, the probability of achievement of 2025 Milestone is remote. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to the 2025 Milestone was $0 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company classified the contingent consideration liability as Level 3 fair value measurements as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The key assumptions considered in estimating the fair value of the Adamas sales-based milestones include the estimated revenue projections and probability of achievement of milestone.

Change in the Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

The following tables provide a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances related to the contingent consideration for the USWM Acquisition and Adamas Acquisition (dollars in thousands):

Income tax benefit was $5.8 million ((35.0)% effective tax rate)) and income tax expense was $0.2 million (1.5% effective tax rate) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to an income tax expense of $6.4 million (24.3% effective tax rate) and $6.5 million (24.5% effective tax rate) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The change in both periods was primarily due to decreased pre-tax book income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024.

The Company's effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was lower compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to a benefit for a state tax refund received during the quarter. The Company's effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 vary from the statutory federal tax rate in the United States (U.S. federal tax rate) of 21% primarily due to state taxes, offset by tax benefits related to research and development tax credits and the benefit of a state tax refund received during the quarter. The Company's effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 vary from the statutory U.S. federal tax rate primarily due to state taxes, offset by tax benefits related to research and development tax credits.

The annual forecasted earnings represent the Company's best estimate as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, are subject to change and could have a material impact on the effective tax rate in subsequent periods. Accounting Standard Codification 740, Income Taxes(ASC 740), requires the Company to estimate the annual effective income tax rate for the full year and apply it to pre-tax income (loss) for each interim period, taking into account year-to-date amounts and projected results for the full year.

On July 4, 2025, H.R.1, also referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), was signed into law in the U.S. The OBBBA includes changes to U.S. federal tax law, including extending and modifying certain key Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 provision, and provisions allowing accelerated tax deductions for qualified property and research expenditures. As the legislation was signed into law after June 30, 2025, any impact of the OBBA is not reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

  1. Segment Reporting

The Company operates inone operating segment and therefore has onlyone reportable segment. The Company derives revenue primarily from sales of its commercial products in the U.S.

The Company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the chief executive officer. The Company manages the business activities on a consolidated basis. The CODM assesses performance of the Company, decides how to allocate resources based on net earnings (loss), which is reported in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings (loss) as net earnings (loss), and allocates resources on a consolidated basis. The CODM uses net earnings (loss) to decide whether to reinvest profits into the Company's current products or into other research and development initiatives for the Company's product candidates. Net earnings (loss) is also used to monitor budget versus actual results.

The measure of the reportable segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets.

Product Licenses

The Company has obtained exclusive licenses from third parties for proprietary rights to support the product candidates in the Company's CNS portfolio. Under these license agreements, the Company may be required to pay certain amounts upon the achievement of defined milestones. If these products are ultimately commercialized, the Company is also obligated to pay royalties to third parties, computed as a percentage of net product sales, for each respective product under a license agreement.

Through the USWM Acquisition, the Company acquired licensing agreements with other pharmaceutical companies for APOKYN, ONAPGO, XADAGO, and MYOBLOC. The Company is obligated to pay royalties to third parties, computed as a percentage of net product sales, for each of the products under the respective license agreements. The royalty expense incurred for these acquired products is recognized as Cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

Navitor Development Agreement

In April 2020, the Company entered into a development agreement (Development Agreement) with Navitor Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Navitor Inc.). The Company can terminate the Development Agreement upon 30 days' notice. Under the terms of the Development Agreement, the Company and Navitor Inc. will jointly conduct a Phase II clinical program for NV-5138 (SPN-820) for treatment-resistant depression. The Company agreed to bear certain Phase I and Phase II development costs incurred by either party, up to a maximum of $50 million, which amount could be increased under the terms of the Development Agreement upon Navitor's request and the Company's consent. In 2020, the Company paid a one-time, nonrefundable, and non-creditable fee of $10 million for the option to acquire or license NV-5138 (SPN-820) (Purchase Option) and made a $15 million equity investment representing approximately 13% ownership in Navitor Inc. There are also certain additional payments which could be incurred by the Company that are contingent upon Navitor Inc. achieving defined milestones. These payments include an additional license or acquisition fee depending on whether the Company ultimately licenses or acquires NV-5138 (SPN-820), and subsequent clinical, regulatory and sales milestone payments. The total payments, exclusive of the royalty payments on net sales of NV-5138 (SPN-820) and development costs paid by the Company under the agreement, have the potential to reach $410 million to $475 million, which includes an aggregate upfront payment of $25 million paid in 2020 for the option to acquire or license NV-5138 (SPN-820) and the equity investment, an additional license or acquisition fee depending on whether the Company ultimately licenses or acquires NV-5138 (SPN-820), and subsequent clinical, regulatory and sales based milestone payments. The Company also will have the first right of refusal for any compound with a similar mechanism of action to NV-5138 (SPN-820) on mTORC1 in the central nervous system.

In addition to entering into the Development Agreement in April 2020, as above mentioned, the Company acquired Series D Preferred Shares of Navitor Inc. (the Navitor Shares), an equity investment representing an approximately 13% ownership position in Navitor Inc. As part of a legal restructuring in March 2021, the Company's Navitor Inc. Shares were exchanged for membership interests in Navitor Pharmaceutics LLC (Navitor LLC), which became the sole shareholder of Navitor Inc. The Company has determined that although Navitor LLC is a VIE, the Company does not consolidate the results of this VIE into its financial results because the Company lacks the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Navitor's economic performance.

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company consented to payment of additional Phase II development costs for NV-5138 (SPN-820) as they are incurred, but reserves the right to terminate payment of future development costs at its discretion.

On May 5, 2025, the Company entered into a binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Navitor Inc. Under the MOU, the Company agreed to conduct further development activities at its own cost and Navitor Inc. agreed to waive its right to receive the $100 million Initial Acquisition Fee under the Development Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the MOU the Company exercised the Purchase Option to purchase all assets of Navitor and its affiliates pursuant to the Development Agreement, subject to, among other things, completion of satisfactory due diligence by the Company, and negotiation and execution of a definitive Purchase Agreement.

The maximum exposure to losses related to Navitor LLC includes the approximately $50 million for Phase I and Phase II development of NV-5138 (SPN-820) already paid by the Company, plus the cost of other development and formulation activities provided by the Company and additional Phase II development costs the Company agreed to pay pursuant to the Development Agreement.

Other than as described herein, no additional equity investment has been made or financing has been provided to Navitor Inc. or Navitor LLC.

USWM Enterprise Commitments Assumed

As part of the USWM Acquisition, the Company assumed the remaining commitments of USWM Enterprises and its subsidiaries, which are discussed below.

The Company assumed the annual minimum purchase requirement of MYOBLOC, amounting to an estimated €3.0 million annually, under the contract manufacturing agreement with Merz for manufacture and supply. An amendment to the contract manufacturing agreement with Merz was executed in July 2025. Amendments to the contract manufacturing agreement included among other things, the removal of the annual minimum purchase requirement of MYOBLOC, and the Company's agreement to pay a nonrefundable annual fee of €3.0 million to cover general maintenance and reservation costs for the manufacturing facilities.

MDD US Operations, LLC (formerly US WorldMeds, LLC) and its subsidiary, Solstice Neurosciences, LLC (US) (collectively, the MDD Subsidiaries) entered into a Corporate Integrity Agreement (CIA) with the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services which was effective in April 2019. Under the CIA, the MDD Subsidiaries agreed to and paid $17.5 million to resolve U.S. Department of Justice allegations that it violated the False Claims Act and committed to the establishment and ongoing maintenance of an effective compliance program. The fine was paid by the MDD Subsidiaries prior to closing of the USWM Acquisition. As part of the USWM Acquisition, the Company assumed the obligations of the CIA and could become liable for payment of certain stipulated monetary penalties in the event of any CIA violations. In addition, the Company continues to maintain a broad array of processes, policies and procedures necessary to comply with the CIA and submitted its final report during the second quarter of 2024. The Company received an official notification of release from the Office of the Inspector General in April 2025 and thus no longer remains subject to its obligations under the CIA.

Claims and Litigation

From time to time, any of Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. or one or more of its subsidiaries may be involved in various claims, litigation and legal proceedings. These matters may involve patent litigation, product liability and other product-related litigation, commercial and other matters, and government investigations, among others. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim, asserted or unasserted, or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company will accrue a liability for the estimated loss. Because of uncertainties related to claims, legal proceedings and litigation, accruals will be based on the Company's best estimates based on available information. The Company may reassess the potential liability related to these matters and may revise these estimates. The process of resolving matters through litigation or other means is inherently uncertain and it is possible that an unfavorable resolution of these matters will adversely affect the Company, its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

NAMENDA XR/Namzaric Qui Tam Litigation

On April 1, 2019, Adamas was served with a complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (the District Court) (Case No. 3:18-cv-03018-JCS) against it and several Allergan entities alleging violations of federal and state false claims acts (FCA) in connection with the commercialization of NAMENDA XR and Namzaric by Allergan. The lawsuit is aqui tam complaint brought by an individual, asserting rights of the federal government and various state governments. The lawsuit was originally filed in May 2018 under seal, and Adamas became aware of the lawsuit when it was served. The complaint alleges that patents held by Allergan and Adamas covering NAMENDA XR and Namzaric were procured through fraud on the United States Patent and Trademark Office and that these patents were asserted against potential generic manufacturers of NAMENDA XR and Namzaric to prevent the generic manufacturers from entering the market, thereby wrongfully excluding generic competition resulting in an artificially high price being charged to government payors. Adamas' patents in question were licensed exclusively to Forest Laboratories Holdings Limited. The complaint includes a claim for damages of "potentially more than $2.5 billion dollars," treble damages and statutory penalties. To date the federal and state governments have declined to intervene in this action. This case is currently stayed pending Adamas's and Allergan's interlocutory appeal of the District Court's December 11, 2020 order denying Adamas's and Allergan's motion to dismiss the complaint. The appeal is pending in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (Case No. 21-80005). Argument was held on January 10, 2022. On August 25, 2022, the Ninth Circuit sided with the defendants by reversing the District Court's public disclosure bar rulings and remanding the case back to the District Court to decide certain issues in the first instance. On October 11, 2022, the plaintiff filed a petition for rehearing with the Ninth Circuit which was denied on November 3, 2022. On December 23, 2022, the defendants filed renewed motions to dismiss directed to the remaining unresolved issue. On March 20, 2023, the District Court entered an order and final judgement dismissing with prejudice the FCA claim while declining to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the state false claims act claims which were dismissed without prejudice. On April 19, 2023, the plaintiff appealed the District Court's dismissal of the Federal False Claims Act claim. On February 20, 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion for an indicative ruling and to set aside the judgment in the District Court, based on the same arguments raised in his appeal. That motion was fully briefed and the District Court determined that the motion for an indicative ruling was suitable for determination without a hearing. On May 7, 2024, the District Court denied the plaintiff's motion for an indicative ruling. The appeal is fully briefed, and the Ninth Circuit has set oral argument for November 21, 2024. On January 29, 2025, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the District Court's order dismissing the litigation. On March 31, 2025, the plaintiff filed a petition for rehearing by the Ninth Circuit, but the Ninth Circuit denied the Petition on April 15, 2025. The plaintiff opted not to seek review from the U.S. Supreme Court. It remains to be seen whether the plaintiff will attempt to refile any of his state-law FCA claims. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously. However, the Company can offer no assurances that it will be successful in a litigation.

APOKYN Litigation

On October 3, 2022, Sage Chemical, Inc. and TruPharma, LLC filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (Case No.22-cv-1302) alleging that Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Britannia Pharmaceuticals Limited and US WorldMeds Partners, LLC violated state and federal antitrust law in connection with APOKYN. On October 16, 2022, Plaintiffs amended their complaint to add additional defendants MDD US Enterprises, LLC, MDD US Operations, LLC (each a subsidiary of Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), USWM, LLC, and individual defendants Paul Breckinridge Jones, Sr., Herbert Lee Warren, Jr., Henry Van Den Berg, and Kristin L. Gullo. On January 10, 2023, Defendants filed an Omnibus Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint seeking dismissal of each of Plaintiffs' claims and the lawsuit in its entirety and US WorldMeds with USWM, Britannia, and the group of individual defendants each filed separate motions to dismiss. On March 12, 2024, following oral argument before the Court on the afternoon of March 11, 2024, the Court issued an Oral Order granting Defendants' motion to stay depositions until the court resolved Defendants' motions to dismiss. On May 9, 2024, and May 28, 2024, respectively, the Court denied the Defendants' omnibus motion and the Britannia motion to dismiss. The Court lifted the stay on fact depositions, which are now mostly completed. The time period for completion of fact discovery concluded in February 2025, but Plaintiffs continue to seek depositions from two US WorldMeds’ executives, including its former CEO. Briefing on this dispute has been completed and a hearing is scheduled for August 4, 2025. Plaintiffs also are seeking to take international depositions of a Britannia employee and a former Britannia employee. Plaintiffs also are actively pursuing additional document production from the Company to which the Company objects. On May 31, 2024, and June 4, 2024, respectively, the Court granted the individual defendants' motion to dismiss and the US WorldMeds and USWM motion to dismiss. On August 29, 2024, the Court entered an Order that revived the claims against US WorldMeds Partners, LLC and USWM, LLC on December 5, 2024. On December 6, 2024, Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint, which added US WorldMeds and USWM back to the case. US WorldMeds Partners, LLC and USWM, LLC have filed a Motion for Leave to File an Early Summary Judgment Motion. This Motion has been briefed but the Court has not made a ruling to date. On November 4, 2024, the Court issued a scheduling order that provides for a Pretrial Conference on December 10, 2025, and a jury trial beginning on January 5, 2026. On January 3, 2025, the Court issued an Oral Order requiring the parties to "engage in in-person mediation in good faith" and jointly select an agreed-upon mediator. The parties agreed jointly to a mediator and mediation was held in April 2025 that did not result in settlement for any of the parties.

On May 12, 2025, after expert reports have been exchanged but prior to the start of the majority of expert depositions, Plaintiffs moved to strike or limit the testimony of seven of Defendant's ten experts. On same day, the parties jointly submitted a stipulation to suspend the operative Scheduling Order as to all dates related to discovery, dispositive motions, and Daubert motions. The Court approved this stipulation in its entirety on May 13, 2025 by issuance of an Oral Order reading "SO ORDERED" and listing the docket number for the stipulation. The parties did not explicitly stipulate to suspending pre-trial deadlines or the scheduled trial dates, which are currently set for two weeks beginning on January 5, 2026. In the stipulation, the parties jointly committed to submitting a proposed Amended Scheduling Orders as to all remaining deadlines, including trial, within ten business days of the Court's decision on the motion to strike. Briefing has concluded on the motion to Strike and the parties are awaiting a ruling from the Court. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously. However, the Company can offer no assurances that it will be successful in a litigation.

  1. Subsequent Event

On June 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement to acquire Sage.
