  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1
    If we fail to satisfy all applicable Nasdaq continued listing requirements, including the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement, our common stock may be delisted from Nasdaq, which could have an adverse impact on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.

    Our common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, which has qualitative and quantitative continued listing requirements, including corporate governance requirements, public float requirements, and a $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement. If we are unable to satisfy any of the continued listing requirements, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our common stock. Such a delisting would likely have an adverse effect on the market liquidity of our common stock, decrease the market price of our common stock, result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, suppliers, customers, and employees, fewer business development opportunities, and adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    Our stock price is expected to continue to be volatile.

    The market price of our common stock and our stock price will continue to be subject to significant volatility and fluctuations. Market prices for securities of early-stage pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and other life sciences companies have historically been particularly volatile. Some of the factors that may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate include: - failed or inconclusive data results from our clinical trials;- our ability to obtain regulatory approvals for our product candidate, and delays or failures to obtain such approvals;- failure to meet or exceed any financial and development projections that we may provide to the public;- failure to meet or exceed the financial and development projections of the investment community;- failure of our product candidate, if approved, to achieve commercial success;- failure to maintain our existing third-party license and supply agreements;- failure by us or our licensors to prosecute, maintain, or enforce our intellectual property rights;- changes in laws or regulations applicable to our product candidate;- any inability to obtain adequate supply of our product candidate or the inability to do so at acceptable prices;- adverse regulatory authority decisions;- introduction of new products, services, or technologies by our competitors;- if securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they issue adverse or misleading opinions regarding our business and stock;- failure to obtain sufficient capital to fund our business objectives;- sales of our common stock by us or our stockholders in the future;- trading volume of our common stock;- the perception of the pharmaceutical industry by the public, legislatures, regulators, and the investment community;- announcements of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, or capital commitments by us or our competitors;- disputes or other developments relating to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters, and our ability to obtain patent protection for our technologies;- additions or departures of key personnel;- significant lawsuits, including patent or stockholder litigation;- changes in the market valuations of similar companies;- general market or macroeconomic conditions;- announcements by commercial partners or competitors of new commercial products, clinical progress or the lack thereof, significant contracts, commercial relationships, or capital commitments;- adverse publicity relating to the autoimmune PAP market generally, including with respect to other products and potential products in such market;- the introduction of technological innovations or new therapies that compete with or influence the demand for our product;- changes in the structure of health care payment systems; and - period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results. Moreover, the stock markets in general have experienced substantial volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of individual companies. Additionally, financial markets and the global economy may be adversely affected by the current or anticipated impact of the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine or other related geopolitical events. These broad market fluctuations may also adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, such as the decline in our stock price, stockholders have often instituted class action securities litigation against those companies. For example, in September 2025, a putative class action complaint was filed against the Company and certain of our executive officers asserting violations of federal securities laws, as further described in Note 10. Commitments in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in this annual report on Form 10-K. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and resources, which could significantly harm our profitability and reputation.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
