Current report

We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception and expect to continue to incur significant losses and negative cash flows from operations for at least the next 12 months.

Current report

We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception in January 5, 2010, including net losses of $75.4 million and $59.0 million for the years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We have had minimal revenue to date and have a substantial accumulated deficit and recurring operating losses. We have not generated material revenue from the sales of any product. Our success as a company is substantially dependent on our ability to generate revenue from the sales of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA, which has been approved for the treatment of wet AMD in the EU and UK.

Current report

We have devoted substantially all of our financial resources to identify, develop and manufacture our product candidates, including conducting, among other things, analytical characterization, process development and manufacture, formulation

Current report

and clinical trials, regulatory filing and communication activities and providing general and administrative support for these operations. To date, only one of our product candidates, ONS-5010/LYTENAVA, has been approved for sale in the EU and UK, and we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities and debt financings, as well as to a limited degree, payments under our co-development and license agreements. The amount of our future net losses will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to generate revenue from product sales, the rate of our future expenditures and our ability to obtain funding through equity or debt financing or our ability to enter into and receive funding under strategic licensing or co-development collaborations.

Current report

We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for at least the next 12 months. We anticipate that our expenses may increase substantially if and as we:

Current report

Our failure to become and remain profitable would decrease our value and could impair our ability to raise capital, maintain our research and development efforts, expand our business or continue our operations. A decline in our value could also cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

Current report

We have generated minimal revenue from product sales and may never be profitable.

Current report

We have one product, ONS-5010/LYTENAVA, approved for commercialization in the EU and UK and have generated minimal revenue from product sales. Our ability to continue to generate revenue and achieve profitability depends on our ability, alone or with strategic collaboration partners, to successfully complete the development of, and obtain the regulatory and marketing approvals necessary to commercialize, ONS-5010/LYTENAVA for the treatment of wet AMD, and our other targeted indications, and as appropriate, any of our other product candidates. We currently estimate that we could potentially begin generating revenue from product sales in Europe as early as the first half of calendar 2025, but this depends heavily on our success in many areas, including but not limited to:

Current report

We anticipate incurring significant costs to continue to commercialize ONS-5010/LYTENAVA and any of our other product candidates that may be approved for commercialization in the future. Our expenses could increase beyond our expectations if we are required by the FDA, or other regulatory authorities, supranational, domestic or foreign, or by any unfavorable outcomes in intellectual property litigation filed against us, to change our manufacturing processes or assays or to perform clinical, preclinical or other types of studies in addition to those that we currently anticipate.

Current report

Our ability to continue to generate revenue from the sales of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA in the EU, UK or in any other country where the product is approved, or in relation to any other product candidate that may be approved, will be dependent, in part, upon:

Current report

If the market for ONS-5010/LYTENAVA or any other product candidates we may develop in the future, or our share of that market, is not as large as we expect, the number of indications approved by regulatory authorities is narrower than we expect or the target population for treatment is narrowed by competition, physician choice or treatment guidelines, we may not generate significant revenue from sales of such products to become profitable. If we are unable to successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for ONS-5010/LYTENAVA outside the EU and UK, our business will be harmed.

Current report

We are highly dependent on the success of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA, our only product that has been approved in the EU and UK. If ONS-5010/LYTENAVA does not receive regulatory approval outside the EU and UK, or is not successfully commercialized, our business may be harmed.

Current report

We currently have one product, ONS-5010/LYTENAVA, that is approved for commercial sale in the EU and UK. We may never be able to obtain regulatory approval for ONS-5010/LYTENAVA outside the EU or UK, develop other marketable products or be able to continue commercializing LYTENAVA in the EU or UK. We expect that a substantial portion of our efforts and expenditures in the foreseeable future will be devoted to the advancement of ONS-

Current report

5010/LYTENAVA, our only approved product and only product candidate in active development. We also expect that we will need to devote significant effort to the continued commercialization of LYTENAVA in the EU, UK, and other markets following regulatory approval, if received. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully obtain regulatory approval of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA outside of the EU and UKand develop sufficient commercial capabilities for ONS-5010/LYTENAVA if and when necessary. Accordingly, our business currently depends heavily on the successful regulatory approval of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA outside the EU and UK, and commercialization of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA.

Current report

We cannot be certain that ONS-5010/LYTENAVA will receive regulatory approval outside of the EU or UK, or be successfully commercialized even in the EU or UK, or any other targeted market in which we receive regulatory approval. The research, testing, manufacturing, labeling, approval, sale, marketing and distribution of products are, and will remain, subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the United States and other countries that each have differing regulations. We are not permitted to market ONS-5010/LYTENAVA in the United States until we receive approval from the FDA, or in any foreign country until we receive the requisite approvals from the appropriate authorities in such countries for marketing authorization.

Current report

Obtaining approval from the FDA or similar regulatory approval is an extensive, lengthy, expensive and inherently uncertain process, and the FDA or other foreign regulatory authorities may delay, limit or deny approval of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA for many reasons, including:

Current report

There can be no assurance that our BLA or MAAs of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA for wet AMD, or planned future, clinical trials for other retina indications, will ultimately meet the requirements sufficient for us to receive regulatory approval outside of the EU and UK. For example, in May 2022, we voluntarily withdrew our BLA to provide additional information requested by the FDA. We re-submitted the BLA to the FDA for ONS-5010/LYTENAVA on August 30, 2022. On August 29, 2023, we received a CRL in which the FDA concluded it could not approve the BLA during this review cycle due to several CMC issues, open observations from pre-approval manufacturing inspections, and a lack of substantial evidence. At subsequent Type A meetings with the FDA, we learned that the FDA requires the successful completion of an additional adequate and well-controlled clinical trial evaluating ONS-5010/LYTENAVA, as well as additional requested CMC data indicated in the CRL to approve ONS-5010/LYTENAVA for use in wet AMD. We received agreement from FDA under the SPA for the NORSE EIGHT trial protocol and completed enrollment in the trial in September 2024. In November 2024, we reported that ONS-5010/LYTENAVA did not meet the pre-specified non-inferiority endpoint at week 8 set forth in the special protocol assessment (SPA) with the FDA. However, the preliminary data from the trial demonstrated an improvement in vision and the presence of biologic activity, as well as a continued favorable safety profile for ONS-5010.

Current report

Analysis of the data is ongoing as the month 3 data from NORSE EIGHT is being collected, which is expected to be available in January 2025. We resubmitted the BLA to the FDA in February 2025 and in April 2025 we announced that the FDA set a PDUFA goal date for August 27, 2025. There can be no assurance that we will address the deficiencies identified in the CRL to the satisfaction of the FDA.
Reworded paragraphs (1)

Previous wording

In recent weeks the global financial markets have experienced significant disruptions due to various macroeconomic factors, including, among other things, the impacts of fluctuations in inflation and interest rates, tariffs and trade tensions, current or potential future bank failures or ongoing overseas conflict, resulting in a general global economic slowdown. Furthermore, inflation rates, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom, have increased recently to levels not seen in decades. In addition, the U.S. Federal Reserve has raised interest rates in response to concerns about inflation. Increases in interest rates, especially if coupled with reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets, may further increase economic uncertainty and heighten these risks. If the disruptions and slowdown deepen or persist, we may not be able to access additional capital on favorable terms, or at all, which could in the future negatively affect our ability to pursue our business strategy. Finally, there is inherent risk, based on the complex relationships among the U.S. and the countries in which we conduct our business, that political, diplomatic, and national security factors can lead to global trade restrictions and changes in trade policies and export regulations that may adversely affect our business and operations. The current international trade and regulatory environment is subject to significant ongoing uncertainty. The U.S. government has recently announced substantial new tariffs affecting a wide range of products and jurisdictions and has indicated an intention to continue developing new trade policies, including with respect to the pharmaceutical industry. In response, certain foreign governments have announced or implemented retaliatory tariffs and other protectionist measures. These developments have created a dynamic and unpredictable trade landscape, which may adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. Current or future tariffs will result in increased research and development expenses, including with respect to increased costs associated with raw materials, laboratory equipment and research materials and components. In addition, such tariffs will increase our supply chain complexity and could also potentially disrupt our existing supply chain. Trade restrictions affecting the import of materials necessary for clinical trials could result in delays to our development timelines. Increased development costs and extended development timelines could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to companies operating in regions with more favorable trade relationships and could reduce investor confidence, negatively impacting our ability to secure additional financing on favorable terms or at all. In addition, as we advance toward commercialization, tariffs and trade restrictions could hinder our ability to establish cost-effective production capabilities, negatively imp…
