Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our business involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report filed with the SEC on May 29, 2025, together with the other information contained in this Quarterly Report, including our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. We cannot assure you that any of the events discussed in these risk factors will not occur. These risks could have a material and adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows and, if so, our future prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected. If any of such events were to happen, the trading price of shares of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, our risk factors have not changed materially from those described in our Annual Report, except for the risk factors noted below.
Risks Related to Our Business, Financial Position and Capital Requirements
We rely on the HanAll Agreement to provide us rights to the core intellectual property relating to IMVT-1402 and batoclimab. Any termination or loss of significant rights under the HanAll Agreement would adversely affect our development and commercialization of IMVT-1402 and batoclimab.
We have licensed our core intellectual property relating to IMVT-1402 and batoclimab from HanAll under the HanAll Agreement. The HanAll Agreement imposes a variety of obligations on us, including those relating to exclusivity, territorial rights, development, commercialization, funding, payment, diligence, sublicensing, insurance, intellectual property protection and other matters. If we materially breach any of our obligations under the HanAll Agreement and are unable to cure that breach within the time frame specified under the HanAll Agreement, we may be required to pay damages to HanAll and they may have the right to terminate the HanAll Agreement, which would result in us being unable to develop or manufacture our products. We have commenced discussions with HanAll regarding the potential return of certain rights for batoclimab.
Biotechnology and pharmaceutical license agreements are complex and certain provisions in the HanAll Agreement may be susceptible to multiple interpretations. The resolution of any dispute or disagreement involving contract interpretation that may arise in relation to the HanAll Agreement could affect the scope of our rights to our product candidates or affect financial or other obligations under the HanAll Agreement or other agreements related to the development and commercialization of our product candidates, either of which could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We continue to anticipate sharing top-line results from the two batoclimab Phase 3 TED studies concurrently in the first half of calendar year 2026. HanAll has a variety of interests in the licensed products including under the HanAll Agreement and outside of our Licensed Territories and may as a result of those interests disagree with, or initiate a dispute with respect to, our development or commercialization plans for batoclimab. While the HanAll Agreement gives us final control over development and regulatory decisions relating to batoclimab in our Licensed Territories, HanAll may disagree with our future plans for batoclimab and we may not reach an agreement with respect to batoclimab, which could result in HanAll initiating a dispute for alleged breach of the HanAll Agreement and such a dispute could result in arbitration or litigation. In the event that HanAll asserts a breach, we do not believe there would be any basis for such a claim, and we would vigorously contest such a claim if made. Any potential dispute with HanAll could be very expensive and time-consuming, may divert our management’s attention from our core business, and may result in unfavorable results that materially impact our business. In addition, discontinuing further development of and regulatory submissions for batoclimab could impact and result in disputes with third parties such as with respect to the contract manufacturing of batoclimab which may be time consuming and expensive to resolve.
Risks Related to Development, Regulatory Approval and Commercialization
Clinical trials are very expensive, time-consuming, difficult to design and implement, and involve uncertain outcomes.
Our product candidates are still in clinical development and will require extensive clinical testing before we are prepared to submit a BLA or other similar application for regulatory approval. For example, we initiated potentially registrational trials for IMVT-1402 in Graves’ disease (“GD”), difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (“D2T RA”), myasthenia gravis (“MG”), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (“CIDP”) and Sjögren’s disease (“SjD”) and a proof-of-concept trial in cutaneous lupus erythematosus (“CLE”). Except for D2T RA and CLE, the first top-line data for any of the studies is not expected until sometime in calendar year 2027, assuming we can fully enroll and successfully complete the relevant trials according to our anticipated timelines. We cannot provide any assurance that any clinical trials will be conducted as planned or completed on schedule, if at all. Clinical trials are very expensive and difficult to design and implement, in part because they are subject to rigorous regulatory requirements. The clinical trial process is also time-consuming and costly and is dependent upon collaboration with many contract research organizations (“CROs”) and clinical trial sites.
Failures can occur at any stage of clinical trials, and we could encounter problems that cause us to abandon or repeat clinical trials. In addition, results from clinical trials may require further evaluation delaying the next stage of clinical development or submission of a BLA. Further, product candidates in later stages of clinical trials may fail to show the desired safety and efficacy traits despite having progressed through nonclinical studies and initial clinical trials, and such product candidates may exhibit negative safety signals in later stage clinical trials that they did not exhibit in nonclinical or earlier-stage clinical trials. A number of companies in the pharmaceutical industry, including biotechnology and biopharmaceutical companies, have suffered significant setbacks in or the discontinuation of clinical trials due to lack of efficacy or adverse safety profiles, notwithstanding positive results in earlier trials. Likewise, the results of early nonclinical studies and clinical trials of our product candidates, some of which were not conducted by us, may not be predictive of the results of our current or planned development programs.
The commencement and completion of clinical trials may be delayed by several factors, including:
failure to obtain regulatory authorization to commence a clinical trial or reach a consensus with regulatory authorities regarding the design or implementation of our studies;
unforeseen safety issues or subjects experiencing severe or unexpected AEs;
continuation of previously identified safety issues;
occurrence of AEs in trials of the same class of agents conducted by other sponsors or AEs reported by anti-FcRn product candidates developed by others;
lack of effectiveness during clinical trials;
resolving any dosing issues or limitations, including those raised by the FDA or other foreign regulatory authorities;
inability to reach agreement on acceptable terms with prospective CROs and clinical trial sites, the terms of which can be subject to extensive negotiation and may vary significantly among different CROs and trial sites;
slower than expected rates of patient recruitment or failure to recruit suitable patients to participate in a trial;
failure to identify, qualify, or initiate a sufficient number of clinical trial sites;
imposition of a temporary or permanent clinical hold by regulatory agencies for a number of reasons, including after review of an investigational new drug application (“IND”) or amendment, a clinical trial application (“CTA”) or amendment, or equivalent application or amendment; as a result of a new safety finding that presents unreasonable risk to clinical trial participants; a negative finding from a GCP inspection of our clinical trial operations or trial sites; developments in trials conducted by in-class competitors that raise regulatory concerns about risk to patients of the class broadly; or if the regulator finds that the investigational protocol or plan is clearly deficient to meet its stated objectives;
failure to perform in accordance with the FDA’s or any other regulatory authority’s current good clinical practices (“cGCPs”) requirements, or other regulatory guidelines in other countries;
unanticipated impact from changes in or modifications to protocols or clinical trial design, including those that may be required by the FDA or other foreign regulatory authorities;
inability or unwillingness of clinical investigators or study participants to follow our clinical and other applicable protocols or applicable regulatory requirements;
an institutional review board (“IRB”) or ethics committee, refusing to approve, suspending, or terminating the trial at an investigational site, precluding enrollment of additional subjects, or withdrawing their approval of the trial;
ethics committees issuing negative opinions regarding a clinical trial or requiring substantial modifications of a proposed clinical trial;
premature discontinuation of study participants from clinical trials or missing data at a level that impacts study integrity;
failure to manufacture or release sufficient quantities of our product candidates or placebo for our clinical trials that in each case meet our and global quality standards for use in clinical trials;
inability to monitor patients adequately during or after treatment; or
inappropriate unblinding of trial results.
Therefore, we cannot predict with any certainty the schedule for commencement and completion of future clinical trials. If we experience delays in the commencement, enrollment, or completion of our clinical trials, or if we terminate a clinical trial prior to completion, the commercial prospects of our product candidates could be harmed, and our ability to generate product revenue from our product candidates, if approved, may be delayed. In addition, any delays in our clinical trials could increase our costs, cause a decline in our share price, slow down the approval process, and jeopardize our ability to commence product sales and generate revenue.
Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property
If we fail to comply with our obligations under any license, collaboration or other agreements, including the HanAll Agreement, we may be required to pay damages and could lose intellectual property rights that are necessary for developing and protecting our product candidates.
We have licensed certain intellectual property rights, including certain intellectual property rights covering IMVT-1402 and batoclimab from HanAll. We depend, and will continue to depend, on the HanAll Agreement for the rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize our product candidates. If, for any reason, the rights granted to us under the HanAll Agreement are terminated or we otherwise lose those rights, it would adversely affect our business. The HanAll Agreement also imposes, and any future collaboration agreements or license agreements we enter into are likely to impose, various development, commercialization, funding, milestone payment, royalty, diligence, sublicensing, insurance, patent prosecution and enforcement or other obligations on us.
If we materially breach any of those obligations, or use the intellectual property licensed to us in an unauthorized manner, we may be required to pay damages and HanAll, as the licensor, may have the right to terminate the HanAll Agreement, which could result in us being unable to develop, manufacture and sell products that are covered by the HanAll Agreement or having to negotiate new or reinstated licenses on less favorable terms or enable a competitor to gain access to the licensed technology.
General Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities
The intended tax effects of our corporate structure and intercompany arrangements depend on the application of the tax laws of various jurisdictions and on how we operate our business.
Our wholly-owned subsidiary, ISL, and our controlling stockholder, RSL, are incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and are tax residents of the U.K. Further, we currently have other subsidiaries that are domiciled in the U.K., Switzerland and the U.S. If any of our product candidates receives approval by applicable regulatory bodies, we expect to conduct increased operations through our subsidiaries in various countries and tax jurisdictions where such approvals have been granted, in part through intercompany service agreements between us, our parent company and our subsidiaries. In that case, we anticipate that our corporate structure and intercompany transactions, including the manner in which we develop and use our intellectual property, will be organized so that we can achieve our business objectives in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with applicable transfer pricing rules and regulations. If two or more affiliated companies are located in different countries or tax jurisdictions, the tax laws and regulations of each country generally will require that transfer prices be the same as those between unrelated companies dealing at arms’ length and that appropriate documentation be maintained to support the transfer prices. While we believe that we operate in compliance with applicable transfer pricing laws and intend to continue to do so, our transfer pricing procedures and determinations are not binding on applicable tax authorities. If tax authorities in any country were to successfully challenge our transfer pricing procedures and determinations as not reflecting arms’ length transactions, they could require us to adjust our transfer pricing procedures and determinations and thereby could require us to reallocate our income to reflect these revised transfer prices, which could result in a higher tax liability to us. In addition, if the country from which the income is reallocated does not agree with the reallocation, both countries could tax the same income, potentially resulting in double taxation. If tax authorities were to allocate income to a higher tax jurisdiction, subject our income to double taxation or assess interest and penalties, it could increase our consolidated tax liability, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Significant judgment is required in evaluating our tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which an ultimate tax determination is uncertain. For example, in January 2026, we engaged in certain internal transactions in connection with the internal reorganization and transfer of intellectual property rights related to the Company’s product candidates between two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. We intend for such transactions to qualify as transactions that are generally tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes and non-U.S. tax purposes. The anticipated tax consequences of such transactions depend upon facts and assumptions regarding the value of the Company’s intellectual property, the past and future conduct of our subsidiaries and certain other matters that may prove to be incorrect or incomplete. As such, there can be no assurance that the relevant taxing authorities will not assert that the actual tax treatment of such transactions differs from our intended tax treatment. The application of tax laws across countries and taxing jurisdictions can be subject to diverging and sometimes conflicting interpretations by tax authorities of these jurisdictions. It is not uncommon for taxing authorities in different countries to have conflicting views for instance with respect to, among other things, the manner in which the arms’ length standard is applied for transfer pricing purposes or with respect to the valuation of intellectual property. In addition, tax laws are dynamic and subject to change as new laws are passed and new interpretations of the law are issued or applied. Moreover, certain relevant tax, accounting and other laws have special application with respect to “affiliated,” “combined” or similar groups, which may include RSL, ISL and their respective subsidiaries and which may impact the tax liabilities of the companies. We continue to assess the impact of such changes in tax laws on our business and may determine that changes to our structure, practice or tax positions are necessary in light of such changes and developments in the tax laws of other jurisdictions in which we operate. Such changes may nevertheless be ineffective in avoiding an increase in our consolidated tax liability, which could harm our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
