Current report

We have ceased marketing and selling our only commercial product in the U.S. and Canada and will therefore not continue to generate revenue from this product for the treatment of ALS. We expect to generate significant losses for the foreseeable future.

Current report

We will not return to profitability unless and until we successfully commercialize any of our current or future product candidates.

Risks Related to Our Business Operations and Employee Matters

Current report

We are continuously evaluating and pursuing strategic transactions, and may pursue strategic transactions in the future that are aligned with our mission to improve our underlying business performance.

Current report

Unfavorable macroeconomic conditions or market volatility resulting from national or global economic conditions, including those affecting the financial services industry, could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Current report

We have ceased marketing and selling our only commercial product in the U.S. and Canada and will therefore not continue to generate revenue from this product for the treatment of ALS. We expect to generate significant losses for the foreseeable future.

Current report

conduct clinical trials of avexitide, AMX0035 and any other current or future product candidates;

Current report

seek to identify and advance additional product candidates;

Current report

seek regulatory approvals for avexitide or AMX0035 in indications that successfully complete clinical development; and

Current report

acquire or in-license other product candidates, products or technologies.

Current report

We will not return to profitability unless and until we successfully commercialize any of our current or future product candidates.

Current report

our obligation, if any, to pay royalties in connection with the development and commercialization of avexitide or any other products or product candidates we may in-license or acquire;

Current report

our headcount fluctuation;

Current report

We will need to have sufficient funds for, and successfully complete, our clinical development of avexitide, AMX0035 for the treatment of PSP, Wolfram syndrome and other indications, and AMX0114 in ALS.

Current report

receipt and maintenance of designations from applicable regulatory authorities, including breakthrough designation for avexitide and orphan designation for avexitide and AMX0035;

Current report

Our product candidates require specific shipping, storage, handling and administration, which in some cases, may require cold-chain logistics and subject our product candidates to risk of loss or damage if failures occur.

Current report

Our product candidates are sensitive to temperature, storage and handling conditions. They must be stored at very low temperatures in specialized freezers or specialized shipping containers until immediately prior to use. The handling and administration of the product, if approved, may need to be performed according to specific instructions and in some steps within specific time periods. Failure to correctly handle our product could negatively impact the efficacy and or safety of our product, or cause a loss of product. In addition, if approved, our products may need to be frozen using specialized equipment and maintained following specific procedures in order to be stored without damage in a cost-efficient manner and without degradation. We will need to scale-up a cost-effective and reliable cold-chain distribution and logistics network, which we may be unable to accomplish. Failure to effectively scale-up our cold-chain supply logistics, by us or third parties, could in the future lead to additional manufacturing costs and delays in our ability to supply required quantities for commercial supply. For these and other reasons, we may not be able to manufacture our current or future product candidates at commercial scale or in a cost-effective manner. Even if we are able to manufacture and distribute the product candidates, if our products require specific procedures to maintain and use them, we may be limited in commercial opportunity.

Current report

We are currently, and plan to continue to, develop and evaluate avexitide and evaluate AMX0035 in other indications other than ALS, to continue to develop other product candidates. We intend to evaluate internal opportunities from avexitide, AMX0035 or other potential product candidates, and also may choose to in-license or acquire other product candidates as well as commercial products to treat patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases and CNS or other disorders with significant unmet medical needs and limited treatment options. For example, we recently completed the acquisition of substantially all of the rights, title and interests in, to and under those assets and interests used by Eiger in the development, manufacture and commercialization of avexitide. Avexitide has been evaluated in five Phase 2 clinical studies for PBH and Congenital HI, both diseases with unmet need, and we intend to initiate a Phase 3 program in PBH.

Current report

The FDA has granted rare pediatric disease designation to avexitide for the treatment of Congenital HI. However, a marketing application for avexitide or any other product candidate, if approved, may not meet the eligibility criteria for a priority review voucher.

Current report

The FDA has granted rare pediatric disease designation to avexitide for the treatment of Congenital HI. Designation of a drug as a drug for a rare pediatric disease does not guarantee that an NDA for such drug will meet the eligibility criteria for a rare pediatric disease priority review voucher at the time the application is approved. Under the FDCA, we will need to request a rare pediatric disease priority review voucher in our original NDA for avexitide. The FDA may determine that an NDA for avexitide, if approved, does not meet the eligibility criteria for a priority review voucher, including for the following reasons:

Current report

Congenital HI no longer meets the definition of a rare pediatric disease;

Current report

the NDA contains an active ingredient that has been previously approved by the FDA;

Current report

the NDA does not rely on clinical data derived from studies examining a pediatric population and dosages of the drug intended for that population (that is, if the NDA does not contain sufficient clinical data to allow for adequate labeling for use by the full range of affected pediatric patients); or

Current report

the NDA is approved for a different adult indication than the rare pediatric disease for which avexitide is designated.

Current report

The authority for the FDA to award rare pediatric disease priority review vouchers for drugs and biologics is currently limited to those candidates that receive rare pediatric disease designation on or prior to December 20, 2024, and the FDA may only award rare pediatric disease priority review vouchers through September 30, 2026. However, it is possible the FDA’s authority to award rare pediatric disease priority review vouchers will be further extended by Congress as reauthorization legislation is currently pending. Absent any such extension, if an NDA for avexitide is not approved prior to September 30, 2026 for any reason, regardless of whether it meets the criteria for a rare pediatric disease priority review voucher, it will not be eligible for a priority review voucher.

Current report

Following our announcement to begin the process to voluntarily withdraw RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA from the market, we entered into negotiations with each of our third-party manufacturers to redefine our relationship going forward. These negotiations are ongoing and may result in irreparable damage to our relationship with one or more suppliers, making our further development and potential commercialization challenging.

Current report

The markets for avexitide for PBH, and congenital HI, for AMX0035 for Wolfram syndrome, PSP and other neurodegenerative diseases, and for any other product candidates we are currently developing or may in the future develop or acquire may be smaller than we expect.

Current report

the demand for avexitide, AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates;

Current report

Risks Related to Our Business Operations and Employee Matters

Current report

Our Restructuring Plan and associated organizational changes may not adequately reduce our operating costs or improve operating margins, may lead to additional workforce attrition, and may cause operational disruptions.

Current report

We implemented a restructuring plan, or the Restructuring Plan, designed to focus our resources on key clinical and preclinical programs in April 2024. The Restructuring Plan reduced our workforce by approximately 70% and decreased external financial commitments outside of our priority areas.

Current report

The long-term effects of the Restructuring Plan may yield unintended consequences and costs, such as the loss of institutional knowledge and expertise, employee attrition beyond our intended reduction in force, a reduction in morale among our remaining employees, greater-than-anticipated costs incurred in connection with implementing the Restructuring Plan, and the risk that we may not achieve the benefits from the Restructuring Plan to the extent or as quickly as we anticipate, all of which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. These restructuring initiatives could place substantial demands on our management and employees, which could lead to the diversion of our management’s and employees’ attention from other business priorities. In addition, while certain positions have been eliminated in connection with the Restructuring Plan, certain functions necessary to our reduced operations remain, and we may be unsuccessful in distributing the duties and obligations of departed employees among our remaining employees or to external service providers, which could result in disruptions to our operations. We may also discover that the workforce reduction and other restructuring efforts will make it difficult for us to pursue new opportunities and initiatives and require us to hire qualified replacement personnel, which may require us to incur additional and unanticipated costs and expenses. We may further discover that, despite the implementation of our Restructuring Plan, we may require additional capital to continue expanding our business, and we may be unable to obtain such capital on acceptable terms, if at all. Our failure to successfully accomplish any of the above activities and goals may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Finally, we have received and may receive additional lawsuits from employees relating to their separation from the Company. These lawsuits may result in increased costs and reputational risk to the Company.

Current report

We are continuously evaluating and pursuing strategic transactions, and may pursue strategic transactions in the future that are aligned with our mission to improve our underlying business performance.

Current report

We anticipate completing acquisitions and business combinations in the future, especially given the discontinuation of the marketing authorizations for RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA for ALS and its withdrawal from the commercial market in the U.S. and Canada. For example, in July 2024, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the rights, title and interests in, to and under those assets and interests used by Eiger in the development, manufacture and commercialization of avexitide. Our ability to complete future acquisitions and business combinations will depend, in part, on the availability of suitable candidates at acceptable prices, terms, and conditions; our ability to compete effectively for acquisition candidates; and the availability of capital and personnel to complete such acquisitions and run the acquired business effectively. Any acquisition or business combination could impair our business, reputation, operating results and financial condition. The benefits of an acquisition or business combination may take more time than expected to develop or integrate into our operations, and we cannot guarantee that previous or future acquisitions or business combinations will, in fact, produce any benefits. For example, we may not receive the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of avexitide for some time. Acquisitions and business combinations may involve a number of risks, the occurrence of which could adversely affect our business, reputation, operating results and financial condition, including:

Current report

diversion of management’s attention;

Current report

disruption to our existing operations and plans;

Current report

difficulties or delays in integrating and assimilating information and financial systems, operations, manufacturing processes and products of an acquired business or other business venture or in realizing projected efficiencies, growth prospects, cost savings, and synergies;

Current report

inability to successfully integrate or develop a distribution channel for acquired product lines;

Current report

potential loss of key employees, customers, distributors, or sales representatives of the acquired businesses or adverse effects on existing business relationships with suppliers, customers, distributors, and sales representatives;

Current report

adverse impact on overall profitability if our expanded operations do not achieve the financial results projected in our valuation models;

Removed paragraphs (84)

Previous report

We have in the past incurred significant losses and may in the future incur additional losses if we are unable to continue to generate sufficient revenue from our approved products to cover our expenses.

Previous report

We have a limited history of recognizing revenue from product sales and may not be able to achieve or maintain long-term sustainable profitability.

Previous report

We have a limited operating history and currently only have one commercial product, AMX0035, branded as RELYVRIO in the U.S. and ALBRIOZA in Canada, which may make it difficult to evaluate the prospects for our future viability.

Previous report

We have limited sales and marketing experience. If we are unable to continue to successfully commercialize AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates in the U.S., Canada or elsewhere, if and when approved, we may be unable to generate meaningful additional product revenue.

Previous report

If the FDA, Health Canada, the EMA or other comparable foreign regulatory authorities approve generic versions of AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidate of ours that receives regulatory approval, or such authorities do not grant our products appropriate periods of non-patent exclusivity before approving generic versions of such products, the sales of such products could be adversely affected.

Previous report

Risks Related to Our Business Operations, Employee Matters and Managing Growth

Previous report

A pandemic, epidemic, or outbreak of an infectious disease may materially and adversely affect our business, including our preclinical studies, clinical trials, third parties on whom we rely, our supply chain, our ability to raise capital, our ability to conduct regular business and our financial results.

Previous report

Unstable market, economic, political and geographical conditions may have serious adverse consequences on our business, financial condition and stock price.

Previous report

We have in the past incurred significant losses and may in the future incur additional losses if we are unable to continue to generate sufficient revenue from our approved products to cover our expenses.

Previous report

further build out our sales, marketing, pharmacovigilance and distribution infrastructure and scale-up manufacturing capabilities for AMX0035 and any product candidate for which we may obtain approval;

Previous report

conduct clinical trials of AMX0035 for the treatment of ALS, PSP, WS, AD and potential other additional indications;

Previous report

seek to identify additional product candidates;

Previous report

maintain regulatory approvals in the U.S. and Canada for RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA for the treatment of ALS, respectively, and seek to obtain regulatory approvals in the EU and other geographies for AMX0035 for the treatment of ALS, PSP, WS, AD and any other indications that successfully complete clinical development;

Previous report

experience any delays or encounter any issues with any of the above, including but not limited to completion of post-marketing requirements, the potential that regulators require additional data to support the approval of AMX0035 for ALS, failed studies, negative or mixed clinical trial results, safety issues or other regulatory challenges;

Previous report

hire and retain additional personnel, such as clinical, quality control, scientific, commercial and administrative personnel;

Previous report

add equipment and physical infrastructure to support our research and development; and

Previous report

We are continuing to build out our infrastructure, including sales and marketing, distribution and manufacturing capabilities, to support commercialization of AMX0035 in the U.S. and Canada. As of December 31, 2023, we had 384 full-time employees.

Previous report

Our expenses could increase beyond our expectations if we are required by the FDA, Health Canada, the EMA, or other regulatory authorities to perform clinical trials or conduct other studies in addition to those that we currently expect, or if there are any delays in establishing appropriate manufacturing arrangements for or in completing our clinical trials or the development of AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates we may develop.

Previous report

We have a limited history of recognizing revenue from product sales and may not be able to achieve or maintain long-term sustainable profitability.

Previous report

Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability depends on our ability to successfully complete the development of, and obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to commercialize our products, including our commercialization of RELYVRIO in the U.S. and ALBRIOZA in Canada. Our ability to recognize revenues from product sales depends heavily on our success in:

Previous report

manufacturing and delivering supply of AMX0035;

Previous report

satisfying any post-marketing requirements;

Previous report

completing research, preclinical, and clinical development of other product candidates, including AMX0114, and for AMX0035 in additional indications;

Previous report

seeking and obtaining U.S. and foreign marketing approvals for AMX0035 in additional indications and for other product candidates for which we complete clinical trials;

Previous report

addressing any competing technological and market developments;

Previous report

implementing additional internal systems and infrastructure;

Previous report

maintaining, defending, protecting, and expanding our portfolio of IP rights, including patents, trade secrets and know-how; and

Previous report

attracting, hiring and retaining qualified personnel.

Previous report

Other than RELYVRIO in the U.S. and ALBRIOZA in Canada, we have not yet launched any other approved products for commercial sale. We anticipate continuing to incur significant costs associated with the commercialization of RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA, and even if another product candidate we are developing is approved for commercial sale, we anticipate incurring significant costs associated the commercialization of any such approved product candidate. Even though we have begun to generate revenues from the sale of RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA, we may not be able to achieve or maintain long-term sustainable profitability unless AMX0035 is approved in other jurisdictions or for additional indications or other of our current or future product candidates is approved in the future. Because of the uncertainties and risks associated with these activities, we are unable to accurately and precisely predict the timing and amount of revenues, the extent of any future losses or if we might sustain profitability.

Previous report

We have a limited operating history and currently only have one commercial product, AMX0035, branded as RELYVRIO in the U.S. and ALBRIOZA in Canada, which may make it difficult to evaluate the prospects for our future viability.

Previous report

We are still in the relatively early stages of our transition from a clinical-stage to a commercial-stage company in the past few years. Our operations to date have been primarily limited to organizing, staffing and financing our company, raising capital, conducting research and development activities, including preclinical studies and clinical trials and, more recently, preparing for and commercializing AMX0035. We have not yet demonstrated an ability to generate significant revenues on a long term sustained basis, or to conduct sales and marketing activities necessary for successful longer term product commercialization. In June 2022, AMX0035 received marketing authorization with conditions from Health Canada for the treatment of ALS, with one such condition being the provision of data from the PHOENIX trial and other additional planned or ongoing studies.

Previous report

In September 2022, AMX0035 received marketing authorization from the FDA for the treatment of ALS in adults. In January 2024, the European Commission confirmed the adoption of the CHMP’s negative opinion on the MAA for conditional marketing authorisation of AMX0035 for ALS in the EU. We continue to focus on the completion of our global PHOENIX Phase 3 clinical trial, and will provide additional data on the efficacy and safety profile of AMX0035 in people living with ALS. If PHOENIX is supportive, we plan to seek approval in the EU as quickly as possible, although there is no guarantee we will receive such approval.

Previous report

In addition, we have post-marketing requirements as part of our approval of RELYVRIO in the U.S. and ALBRIOZA has been approved in Canada with conditions, which if not met, could impair our ability to continue commercializing AMX0035. At a second meeting of the FDA’s Peripheral and Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee, or the Advisory Committee, on September 7, 2022, relating to AMX0035 for the treatment of ALS, we stated that if our PHOENIX trial is not successful then we will do what is right for patients, which includes voluntarily removing the product from the market. We will work in consultation with regulatory authorities when the PHOENIX data are available. We could also be required by regulatory authorities to withdraw AMX0035 from the marketplace. As part of our approval of RELYVRIO in the U.S., we have post-marketing requirements to conduct carcinogenicity studies in mice and rats, drug-drug interaction studies in human volunteers, and studies in subjects with kidney or liver impairment. The outcomes of these studies including the PHOENIX trial and any potential withdrawal could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Previous report

Additionally, we may not satisfy all of the conditions imposed by Health Canada for marketing authorization of ALBRIOZA for the treatment of ALS. If we fail to do so, we may be subject to additional conditions imposed by Health Canada or we may have to cease commercialization of ALBRIOZA, which may impact our prospect for profitability.

Previous report

We may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other known or unknown factors in achieving our business objectives. Accordingly, you should consider our prospects in light of the costs, uncertainties, delays and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early commercial stage, especially pharmaceutical companies such as ours. Any predictions you make about our future success or viability may not be as accurate as they could be if we had a longer operating history with these activities.

Previous report

our headcount growth and associated costs as we expand our research and development efforts, increase our office space, and establish a commercial infrastructure;

Previous report

We have limited sales and marketing experience. If we are unable to continue to successfully commercialize AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates in the U.S., Canada or elsewhere, if and when approved, and we may be unable to generate meaningful additional product revenue.

Previous report

AMX0035 is the first product that we have commercialized. We currently sell ALBRIOZA in Canada and RELYVRIO in the U.S. through specialized teams, given the relative rarity of ALS and certain of the other indications we are targeting. We are continuing to build the global marketing and sales team for the marketing, sales and distribution of AMX0035 and any future product candidates, if approved. In order to continue to successfully commercialize AMX0035 for the treatment of ALS, and to commercialize AMX0035 for the treatment of PSP, WS, AD and other indications, or to commercialize any of our other current or future product candidates that may be approved, we must build, on a territory-by-territory basis, marketing, sales, distribution, managerial and other capabilities or make arrangements with third parties to perform these services, and we may not be successful in doing so.

Previous report

There are risks involved with both establishing our own sales and marketing capabilities and entering into arrangements with third parties to perform these services. For example, we have recruited and trained a U.S. commercial organization which is expensive and time-consuming. Factors that may inhibit our efforts to commercialize AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, if approved, on our own include:

Previous report

the inability to recruit, train and retain adequate numbers of effective sales and marketing personnel;

Reworded paragraphs (236)

Previous wording

We may require substantial additional funding in the future to meet our financial needs and to pursue our business objectives. If we are unable to raise capital if and when needed, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our product discovery and development activities or commercialization efforts.

Current wording

We may require substantial additional funding in the future to meet our financial needs and to pursue our business objectives. If we are unable to obtain funding if and when needed, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our product discovery and development activities or commercialization efforts.

Previous wording

We currently depend on the success of AMX0035, our most advanced product candidate. If we are unable to maintain, or obtain additional, regulatory approvals for, and successfully commercialize, AMX0035, or experience significant delays in doing so, our business may be materially harmed.

Current wording

We currently depend heavily on the success of avexitide, our most advanced product candidate, and AMX0035. If we are unable to successfully complete late-stage trials, obtain regulatory approvals for, and successfully commercialize, avexitide and/or AMX0035, or experience significant delays in doing so, our business may be materially harmed.

Previous wording

The delay or denial of regulatory approval, inability to maintain regulatory approval, inability to complete post-marketing requirements, or the requirement to resubmit any marketing application with additional data or information for AMX0035 in any jurisdiction could delay or suspend commercialization of AMX0035 and adversely impact our ability to generate revenue, our business and our results of operations, and could cause us to delay or even cease operations.

Current wording

The delay or denial of regulatory approval for any of our current or any future product candidates in any jurisdiction could adversely impact our business and our results of operations, and could cause us delay or even cease operations.

Previous wording

We have concentrated our research and development efforts on the treatment of neurodegenerative and CNS disorders, a field that has seen very limited success in product development.

Current wording

We have historically concentrated our research and development efforts on the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, a field that has seen very limited success in product development, and have only recently further expanded upon our existing development efforts in the endocrine and metabolic field, an area in which we have limited experience in drug development.

Previous wording

The regulatory approval processes of the FDA, Health Canada, the EMA and other comparable foreign authorities are lengthy, time-consuming and inherently unpredictable, and if we are ultimately unable to maintain or obtain regulatory approval for AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, our business will be substantially harmed. A finding that our global Phase 3 PHOENIX trial is insufficient to support current or additional marketing authorizations in ALS could lead the FDA or Health Canada to restrict or withdraw prior regulatory approvals for RELYVRIO or ALBRIOZA, respectively, or we could decide, after consultation with regulatory authorities, to voluntarily withdraw RELYVRIO or ALBRIOZA from the marketplace, or we may not be successful in obtaining marketing authorisation for AMX0035 from the EMA or other comparable foreign authorities.

Current wording

The regulatory approval processes of the FDA and other comparable foreign authorities are lengthy, time-consuming and inherently unpredictable, and if we are ultimately unable to maintain or obtain regulatory approval for any current or future product candidates, our business will be substantially harmed.

Previous wording

We rely on third parties to assist in conducting our clinical trials. If they do not perform satisfactorily, we may not be able to obtain or maintain regulatory approval or successfully commercialize AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, or such approval or commercialization may be delayed, and our business could be substantially harmed.

Current wording

We rely on third parties to assist in conducting our clinical trials. If they do not perform satisfactorily, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval or successfully commercialize avexitide, AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, or such approval or commercialization may be delayed, and our business could be substantially harmed.

Previous wording

We may seek to establish collaborations and, if we are not able to establish and maintain them on commercially reasonable terms, we may have to alter our development and commercialization plans.

Current wording

We may seek to establish additional collaborations and if we are not able to establish and maintain them on commercially reasonable terms, we may have to alter our development and future commercialization plans.

Previous wording

We have entered and may in the future enter into collaborations with third parties for the development and commercialization of AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, and our prospects with respect to AMX0035 and our other current or future product candidates will depend in significant part on the success of those collaborations.

Current wording

We have entered and may in the future enter into collaborations with third parties for the development and commercialization of avexitide, AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, and our prospects with respect to avexitide, AMX0035 and our other current or future product candidates will depend in significant part on the success of those collaborations.

Previous wording

Risks Related to Commercialization of AMX0035 or Future Product Candidates

Current wording

Risks Related to Commercialization of Avexitide, AMX0035 or Future Product Candidates

Previous wording

The market for AMX0035 for ALS, PSP, WS, AD and other neurodegenerative diseases and for any other product candidates we are currently developing or may in the future develop may be smaller than we expect.

Current wording

The markets for avexitide for PBH, and congenital HI, for AMX0035 for Wolfram syndrome, PSP and other neurodegenerative diseases, and for any other product candidates we are currently developing or may in the future develop or acquire may be smaller than we expect.

Previous wording

If we are unable to expand our marketing, manufacturing and distribution capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell AMX0035 or other current or future product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval, we will be unable to generate any additional product revenue.

Current wording

If we are unable in the future to expand our sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell avexitide, AMX0035 or other current or future product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval, we will be unable to generate any additional product revenue.

Previous wording

AMX0035 may fail to maintain the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the medical community necessary for continued commercial success or to remain profitable.

Current wording

Even if any current or future product candidate of ours receives regulatory approval, it may fail to maintain the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the medical community necessary for continued commercial success or to remain profitable.

Previous wording

We are currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability, ongoing military conflicts, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the conflict in Israel, and high inflation and rising interest rates, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current wording

We are currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty and capital markets disruption, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability, ongoing military conflicts, including the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict and conflict in the Middle East, a new U.S. presidential administration and accompanying regulatory activities and economic policies, events related thereto, and changes in inflation and interest rates, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Previous wording

Investment in biopharmaceutical product development is highly speculative because it entails substantial upfront capital expenditures and significant risk that any potential product candidate will fail to demonstrate adequate effect or an acceptable safety profile, gain regulatory approval and become commercially viable. We have invested substantial resources into our product development efforts and toward the commercialization of RELYVRIO, which has been approved by the FDA, and ALBRIOZA, which has received marketing authorization with conditions from Health Canada, but we have only been generating revenue from product sales in the U.S., Canada for a limited period. We will continue to incur significant research and development and other expenses related to clinical development, commercialization, approvals in additional jurisdictions and for additional indications, and ongoing operations. Since our inception, we have devoted the majority of our financial resources and efforts to research and development, including preclinical studies and our clinical trials, preparation for commercialization and commercialization activities. Our financial condition and operating results, including our revenues, expenses and net income (loss), may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. Accordingly, you should not rely upon the results of any quarterly or annual periods as indications of future operating performance. Additionally, net losses and negative cash flows have had, and may in the future have, an adverse effect on our stockholders’ equity and working capital. As of December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $304.9 million. We may again in the future incur significant losses and our financial results will be highly dependent upon continued successful commercial sales of RELYVRIO in the U.S and ALBRIOZA in Canada.

Current wording

Investment in biopharmaceutical product development is highly speculative because it entails substantial upfront capital expenditures and significant risk that any potential product candidate will fail to demonstrate adequate effect or an acceptable safety profile, gain regulatory approval and become commercially viable. We invested substantial resources into our product development efforts of AMX0035, and toward the commercialization of AMX0035 as RELYVRIO for ALS, which was approved by the FDA, and ALBRIOZA and, received marketing authorization with conditions from Health Canada. We voluntarily discontinued the marketing authorizations for RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA for ALS and removed the product from the market in the U.S. and Canada based on topline results from the Phase 3 PHOENIX trial, which failed to meet its prespecified primary and secondary endpoints. Following the withdrawal of RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA from the market in the US and Canada, respectively, we do not have any products approved for commercial sale and we will continue to incur significant research and development and other expenses related to clinical development and potential approvals for our current and future product candidates, including for avexitide, AMX0035 in additional indications other than ALS, and for ongoing operations. Since our inception, we have devoted the majority of our financial resources and efforts to research and development, including preclinical studies and our clinical trials, preparation for commercialization and commercialization activities. Our financial condition and operating results, including our revenues, expenses and net income (loss), have in the past and are likely in the future to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. For example, we generated revenues of $380.8 million in 2023 as a result of sales of RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA, but following its withdrawal, we will no longer generate revenues from this product. Accordingly, you should not rely upon the results of any prior quarterly or annual periods as indications of future operating performance. Additionally, net losses and negative cash flows have had, and may in the future have, an adverse effect on our stockholders’ equity and working capital. As of December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $606.7 million.

Previous wording

We anticipate that our expenses may increase substantially if and as we:

Current wording

We anticipate that significant expenses will be incurred if and as we:

Previous wording

add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support commercialization of AMX0035 and product candidate development and to help us comply with our obligations as a public company;

Current wording

add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support commercialization of any current or future product candidate development and to help us comply with our obligations as a public company;

Previous wording

obtaining reimbursement for our products from private insurance or government payors;

Current wording

Our ability to once again become and remain profitable depends on our ability to generate revenue. While we have a limited history of generating revenue from the commercialization of RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA, we do not expect to generate additional significant revenue, if any, unless and until we, either alone or with a collaborator, are able to obtain regulatory approval for, and successfully commercialize, avexitide, AMX0035 for indications other than ALS or any other current or future product candidates or products we may develop or in-license. Successful commercialization will require achievement of many key milestones, which vary by jurisdiction and may include demonstrating safety and efficacy in clinical trials, obtaining regulatory, including marketing, approval for these product candidates, manufacturing, marketing and selling those products for which we, or any of our future collaborators, may obtain regulatory approval, satisfying any post-marketing requirements and obtaining reimbursement for our products from private insurance or government payors. Because of the uncertainties and risks associated with these activities, we are unable to accurately and precisely predict the timing and amount of revenues, if any, the extent of any further losses or if or when we might achieve profitability. We and any future collaborators may never succeed in these activities and, even if we do, or any future collaborators do, we may never generate revenues that are large enough for us to achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

Previous wording

Our failure to remain profitable may depress the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, diversify our product offerings or continue our operations. If we suffer losses as we have in the past, investors may not receive any return on their investment and may lose their entire investment.

Current wording

Our failure to resume revenue generating activities or regain profitability may continue to depress the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital or obtain other financing, expand our business, diversify our product offerings or continue our operations. If we continue to suffer losses as we have in the past, prior to the commercialization of RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA, investors may not receive any return on their investment and may lose their entire investment.

Current wording

our ability to successfully develop avexitide and AMX0035 for additional indications and to commercialize avexitide and AMX0035 for such additional indications, if approved;

Previous wording

Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since inception. We expect to continue to spend substantial amounts to continue to commercialize AMX0035 in jurisdictions in which it has received regulatory approval and to continue the clinical development of AMX0035 in additional indications and the preclinical and clinical development of additional product candidates. If we are unable to obtain additional marketing approvals for AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates that we develop, we may require significant additional amounts of cash in order to continue to develop AMX0035 and any other current or future product candidates and fund our operations. In addition, other unanticipated costs may arise in the course of our development and commercialization efforts. Because the design and outcome of our ongoing and anticipated clinical trials is highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development and commercialization of any product candidate we develop.

Current wording

Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since inception. We expect to spend substantial amounts to continue the clinical development of avexitide, the clinical development of AMX0035 in indications other than ALS, and for the preclinical and clinical development of additional product candidates, or in the in-license, acquisition or development of other product candidates or products. If we are unable to obtain additional marketing approvals for avexitide, AMX0035, or for any other current or future product candidates that we develop, in-license or acquire, we may require significant additional amounts of cash in order to continue to develop avexitide, AMX0035 and any other current or future product candidates and fund our operations.

Previous wording

We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. As a result of the challenges caused by economic uncertainty in various global markets due to geopolitical instability and conflict, including the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and Israel, the global credit and financial markets have experienced in recent periods significant volatility and disruptions, including diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, high rates of inflation and interest rates and uncertainty about economic stability. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, it may make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, more costly or more dilutive.

Current wording

We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. As a result of the challenges caused by economic uncertainty in various global markets due to geopolitical instability and conflict, including the ongoing wars in Ukraine and Israel, the conflict in the Middle East, a new U.S. presidential administration and accompanying regulatory activities and economic policies, the global credit and financial markets have experienced in recent periods significant volatility and disruptions, including diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, changes to rates of inflation and interest rates and uncertainty about economic and global stability. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, it may make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, more costly or more dilutive.

Previous wording

We have no committed source of additional capital and if we are unable to raise additional capital, if needed, in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development or commercialization of AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates or other research and development initiatives. We may need to seek collaborators for AMX0035 and any other current or future product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable or on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available or relinquish or license on unfavorable terms our rights to AMX0035 and any other current or future product candidates in markets where we otherwise would seek to pursue development or commercialization ourselves. Any of the above events could significantly harm our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Current wording

We have no committed source of additional capital and if we are unable to raise additional capital or secure other financing, if needed, in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development of avexitide, AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates or other research and development initiatives.

Any of the above events could significantly harm our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Previous wording

We believe that the revenue we generate from commercial sales of AMX0035 in the U.S. and Canada and our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating and capital expenditure requirements for at least twelve months after the date of this Annual Report. However, our estimate may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Further, changing circumstances, some of which may be beyond our control, could cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned.

Current wording

We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of December 31, 2024, along with the proceeds from the January follow-on 2025 offering ("January 2025 Offering"), will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating and capital expenditure requirements through 2026. However, our estimate may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Further, changing circumstances, some of which may be beyond our control, could cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned.

Previous wording

We expect our expenses to continue to increase in connection with our planned operations. Unless and until we can generate a substantial amount of revenue on a sustained basis and demonstrate sustained profitability from product sales, we may be required to finance our future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, royalty-based or debt financings, collaborations, licensing arrangements or other sources, or any combination of the foregoing. In addition, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.

Current wording

Unless and until we can generate a substantial amount of revenue on a sustained basis, if at all, we may be required to finance our future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, royalty-based or debt financings, collaborations, licensing arrangements or other sources, or any combination of the foregoing. In addition, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.

Previous wording

To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of common stock, convertible securities or other equity securities, your ownership interest may be diluted, and the terms of these securities could include liquidation or other preferences and anti-dilution protections that could adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. In addition, debt financing, if available, may result in fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that limit our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, creating liens, redeeming stock or declaring dividends, that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Securing financing could also require a substantial amount of time and attention from our management and may divert a disproportionate amount of their attention away from day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our management’s ability to oversee the development and commercialization of AMX0035 or any future product candidates.

Previous wording

We currently depend on the success of AMX0035. If we are unable to maintain, or obtain additional, regulatory approvals for, and successfully commercialize, AMX0035, or experience significant delays in doing so, our business may be materially harmed.

Current wording

We currently depend heavily on the success of avexitide, our most advanced product candidate, and AMX0035. If we are unable to successfully complete late-stage trials, obtain regulatory approvals for, and successfully commercialize, avexitide and/or AMX0035, or experience significant delays in doing so, our business may be materially harmed.

Previous wording

We currently only have one commercial product, AMX0035, which is marketed as RELYVRIO in the U.S. and ALBRIOZA in Canada, and our current business and future success depends significantly on our ability to maintain regulatory approvals for and continue to successfully commercialize AMX0035 for ALS, and to develop, maintain and obtain additional regulatory approvals for and successfully commercialize AMX0114 for ALS and AMX0035 in additional jurisdictions and for other indications, such as PSP, WS, AD and other neurological diseases. To date, we have obtained limited clinical trial data supporting AMX0035, having only completed a clinical trial of 137 patients with ALS and a clinical trial in 95 patients with AD. We are conducting a global Phase 3 clinical trial of AMX0035 in ALS, a Phase 2 clinical trial of AMX0035 in WS, and a global Phase 3 clinical trial of AMX0035 in PSP, and intend to conduct additional clinical trials for other indications and product candidates in the future. We are also conducting IND-enabling studies of AMX0114 in ALS and plan to initiate clinical trials in 2024.

Current wording

Our future success depends significantly on our ability to successfully develop, and obtain regulatory approvals for and commercialize, avexitide in PBH and AMX0035 in indications other than ALS, including Wolfram syndrome and PSP. Avexitide has been evaluated in five Phase 2 clinical studies for PBH and Congenital HI. In February 2025, we activated the first sites for the pivotal Phase 3 LUCIDITY clinical trial for avexitide in PBH. To date, we have obtained limited clinical trial data supporting AMX0035 in indications other than ALS, having only completed a clinical trial in 95 patients with AD. We are conducting a Phase 2 clinical trial of AMX0035 in Wolfram syndrome, and a global Phase 3 clinical trial of AMX0035 in PSP, and intend to conduct additional clinical trials for other indications and product candidates in the future. Our business success depends heavily on our ability to successfully complete clinical trials for our product candidates. We have completed the IND enabling studies of AMX0114 in ALS and the first site was activated for a Phase 1 multiple ascending dose, placebo-controlled trial in Canada in February 2025.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

Our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate in the future. As a result, we may fail to meet or exceed the expectations of research analysts or investors, which could cause our stock price to decline and negatively impact our financing or funding ability, as well as negatively impact our ability to exist as a standalone company.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

We may require substantial additional funding in the future to meet our financial needs and to pursue our business objectives. If we are unable to obtain funding if and when needed, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our product discovery and development activities or commercialization efforts.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

The regulatory approval processes of the FDA and other comparable foreign authorities are lengthy, time-consuming and inherently unpredictable, and if we are ultimately unable to obtain regulatory approval for our current or any future product candidates, our business will be substantially harmed.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

Additionally, we may experience interruption of key clinical trial activities, such as clinical trial site monitoring, due to limitations on travel, quarantines or social distancing protocols imposed or recommended by federal or state governments, employers and others in connection with any future outbreak of any highly infectious or contagious diseases. As a result of a future public health crisis, we may face delays in meeting our anticipated timelines for our ongoing and planned clinical trials.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

Undesirable side effects caused by avexitide, AMX0035 or any future product candidate, could cause us or regulatory authorities to interrupt, delay or halt clinical trials and could result in a more restrictive label or the delay, denial or withdrawal of regulatory approval by the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities. Results of our preclinical studies or clinical trials could reveal a high and unacceptable severity and prevalence of side effects or unexpected characteristics. In clinical trials to date of avexitide, avexitide was generally well-tolerated. The most common AEs were injection site bruising, headache, and nausea; these occurred more often with placebo than either avexitide dose. However, there can be no guarantee that we would observe a similar tolerability profile of avexitide in future clinical trials or for other indications.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

We rely on third parties to assist in conducting our clinical trials. If they do not perform satisfactorily, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval or successfully commercialize avexitide, AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates, or such approval or commercialization may be delayed, and our business could be substantially harmed.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

We may seek to establish additional collaborations and if we are not able to establish and maintain them on commercially reasonable terms, we may have to alter our development and future commercialization plans.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

If we are unable in the future to expand our sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell avexitide, AMX0035 or other current or future product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval, we will be unable to generate any additional product revenue.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

AMX0035, AMX0114, and any other current or future product candidates. As a result of the aforementioned collaborations, we must, at times, share trade secrets with our collaborators.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

We only have a limited number of employees to manage and operate our business.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

launching and commercializing product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval;

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

If we fail to obtain coverage and reimbursement for AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates in new geographies, it could make it difficult for us to sell AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates profitably.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

Moreover, increasing efforts by governmental and other third-party payors in the U.S., Canada, the EU, and other foreign jurisdictions to cap or reduce healthcare costs may cause such organizations to limit both coverage and the level of reimbursement for newly approved products and, as a result, they may not cover or provide adequate payment for AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates. There has been increasing legislative and enforcement interest in the U.S. with respect to specialty drug pricing practices. We expect to experience pricing pressures in connection with the sale of AMX0035 or any other current or future product candidates due to the trend toward managed healthcare, the increasing influence of health maintenance organizations, cost containment initiatives and additional legislative changes.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

AMX0035 is a fixed-dose combination drug product and certain regulatory authorities may require a demonstration that each component makes a contribution to the claimed effects in addition to demonstrating that the combination is safe and effective for the intended population.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

Furthermore, our efforts to build relationships with patient communities may not succeed, which could result in delays in patient enrollment in our clinical trials.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

Competitive products may reduce or eliminate the commercial opportunity for AMX0035 for our current or future indications. If our competitors develop technologies or product candidates more rapidly than we do, or their technologies or product candidates are more effective or safer than ours, our ability to develop and successfully commercialize AMX0035 may be adversely affected.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

Our use of third parties to manufacture AMX0035 in compliance with cGMP may increase the risk that we will not have sufficient cGMP-compliant quantities of AMX0035 or necessary quantities of such materials on time or at an acceptable cost.
