Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K (this Form 8-K) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “should,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “plan,” “potential,” “aim,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “promising” and similar expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this Form 8-K include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the parties’ ability discover and engineer three novel PRO-XTEN® dual-masked TCE development candidates targeting selected solid tumor-associated antigens; Vir Bio’s immediate and potential future financial and other obligations under the Agreement and SPA with Gilead; Vir Bio’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits from the Agreement; Vir Bio’s strategy and plans; and any assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Many factors may cause differences between current expectations and actual results, including, without limitation: unexpected data or results observed during preclinical or future clinical studies or in data readouts; risks of unexpected costs, delays or other unexpected hurdles; difficulties in collaborating with other companies, some of whom may be competitors of Vir Bio or otherwise have divergent interests, and uncertainty as to whether the benefits of Vir Bio’s various collaborations can ultimately be achieved; challenges in accessing manufacturing capacity; the timing and outcome of Vir Bio’s or a collaborator’s planned interactions with regulatory authorities, as well as general difficulties in obtaining any necessary regulatory approvals; successful development and/or commercialization of alternative product candidates by Vir Bio’s competitors, as well as changes in expected or existing competition; geopolitical changes or other external factors; and unexpected litigation or other disputes. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the events or circumstances referred to in the forward-looking statements may not occur. Drug development and commercialization involve a high degree of risk, and only a small number of research and development programs result in commercialization of a product. Results in early-stage clinical studies may not be indicative of full results or results from later-stage or larger-scale clinical studies and do not ensure regulatory approval. The actual results may vary from the anticipated results, and the variations may be material. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any scientific data presented or these forward-looking statements, which are based on Vir Bio’s available information, expectations and assumptions as of the date of this Form 8-K. Other factors that may cause Vir Bio’s actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements in this Form 8-K are discussed in Vir Bio’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the section titled “Risk Factors” contained therein. Except as required by law, Vir Bio assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
