Our proprietary technologies are joined with and leverage a suite ofin silico, artificial intelligence and machine learning tools for therapeutic discovery and optimization that are woven throughout our various technologies and capabilities. Additionally, an established core competency focused on ion channels and transporters further differentiates OmniAb’s technology and creates opportunities in many important and emerging target classes. OmniAb technologies are designed to be leveraged for the discovery of a variety of next-generation antibody-based therapeutic modalities, including bi- and multi-specific biologics, antibody-drug conjugates, CAR-T therapies, targeted radiotherapeutics, and many others.

Previous wording

We believe the long-term value of our business will be driven by royalties given that such payments are based on global sales of potential future partner programs, which generally provide for larger and recurring payments as compared to technology access, research and milestone payments. We believe our revenue will be materially driven by milestones in the shorter term, and by royalties in the longer term, from our partnered programs. However, there is significant uncertainty in timing and likelihood of reaching marketing authorization in drug discovery and development, and we cannot be certain when, if at all, royalty payments will be a material portion of our revenue. Furthermore, we do not control the progression, clinical development, regulatory strategy or eventual commercialization of programs discovered using our platform, and as a result, we are dependent on our partners’ efforts and decisions with respect to such programs.
