Summary of the material risks associated with our business

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that you should be aware of before making an investment decision, including those highlighted in the section entitled “Risk Factors”. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

We must complete successful preclinical studies and clinical trials that demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the product candidates before we can begin the commercialization process.

•

Challenges enrolling patients in our clinical trials may delay or prevent clinical trials of our product candidates.

•

We anticipate that our future product candidates will be used in combination with third-party drugs or biologics, some of which are still in development, and we have limited or no control over the supply, regulatory status, or regulatory approval of such drugs or biologics.

•

Interim “top-line” and preliminary results from our clinical trials that we announce or publish from time to time may change as more patient data become available, and audit and verification procedures could result in material changes in the final data.

•

We may not be able to file investigational new drug (IND) applications or IND amendments to commence additional clinical trials on the timelines indicated, and, even if we are able to file, the Federal Drug Administration, or FDA, or a comparable foreign regulatory may not permit us to proceed.

•

We face significant competition from other biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, academic institutions, government agencies, and other research organizations, which may result in others discovering, developing, or commercializing products more quickly or marketing them more successfully than us. If their product candidates are shown to be safer or more effective than ours, our commercial opportunity may be reduced or eliminated.

•

Negative developments in the field of immuno-oncology or in the field of TIGIT (as defined herein) or adenosine pathway therapeutics could damage public perception of our product candidates or negatively affect our business.

•

If we are unable to successfully commercialize any product candidate for which we receive regulatory approval, or experience significant delays in doing so, our business will be materially harmed.

•

The regulatory approval processes of the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities are lengthy, time consuming and inherently unpredictable. If we experience delays in obtaining, required regulatory approvals, our ability to generate revenue may be materially impaired.

•

We rely on third parties to conduct our clinical trials and perform some of our research and preclinical studies. Failure by these third parties to satisfactorily carry out their contractual duties or to meet expected deadlines may adversely impact our development programs, business and prospects.

•

We may not realize the benefits of our collaborations, alliances or licensing arrangements, including our collaboration with GSK (as defined herein) for the global development of EOS-448.

•

We rely on third parties to manufacture our product candidates, and we expect to continue to rely on third parties for the clinical as well as any future commercial supply of our product candidates and other future product candidates. The development of our current and future product candidates, and the commercialization of any approved products, could be stopped, delayed or made less profitable if any such third party fails to provide us with sufficient clinical or commercial quantities of such product candidates or products, fails to do so at acceptable quality levels or prices or fails to achieve or maintain satisfactory regulatory compliance.

•

Our limited operating history may make it difficult for you to evaluate the success of our business to date and to assess our future viability.

•

We will require additional financing to achieve our goals, and a failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed on acceptable terms, or at all, could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or commercialization efforts.

•

If we are unable to obtain and maintain sufficient intellectual property protection for our current product candidates or any future product candidates, or if the scope of the intellectual property protection is not sufficiently broad, our competitors could develop and commercialize products similar or identical to ours, and our ability to commercialize successfully our products may be adversely affected.

•

The current public health pandemic related to COVID-19 may adversely impact our operations, business and financial results.

•

We are highly dependent on our key personnel, and if we are not successful in attracting and retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to implement successfully our business strategy.

•

The trading price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.

The summary risk factors described above should be read together with the text of the full risk factors below, in the section titled “Risk factors” and the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on 10-Q, including our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes, as well as in other documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The risks summarized above or described in full below are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not precisely known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects.

Special note regarding forward-looking statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section entitled “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations” contains express or implied forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or future operational or financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

•

the timing, progress and success of our clinical trials of EOS-448 and inupadenant and any other product candidates, including statements regarding the timing of initiation and completion of studies or trials and related preparatory work, the period during which the results of the trials will become available and our research and development programs;

•

whether the results of our trials will be sufficient to support domestic or foreign regulatory filings or approvals for EOS-448 and inupadenant or any other product candidates we may develop;

•

regulatory actions with respect to our product candidates or our competitors’ products and product candidates;

•

our ability to obtain, including on an expedited basis, and maintain regulatory approval of EOS-448 and inupadenant or any other product candidates we may develop;

•

the outcomes of our preclinical studies;

•

our ability to enroll patients in our clinical trials at the pace that we project;

•

our ability to advance our programs on indicated timelines, including our plans to advance inupadenant into randomized controlled trials in combination;

•

the costs of development of our product candidates or clinical development programs;

•

the period of time over which our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures, and the degree to which such resources will enable us to fund our planned development of EOS-448 and inupadenant and any other product candidates we may identify and pursue;

•

the potential attributes and clinical benefits of the use of EOS-448 and inupadenant or any other product candidate, if approved;

•

our ability to successfully establish or maintain collaborations or strategic relationships for our product candidates;

•

the expected benefits of collaborations, including potential milestones and royalty payments from GSK pursuant to the GSK Collaboration Agreement (as defined herein);

•

the rate and degree of market acceptance of EOS-448 and inupadenant or any other product candidates we may identify and pursue;

•

our ability to obtain orphan drug or Breakthrough Therapy designation or other accelerated approval for any of our product candidates or any other product candidates that we may identify and pursue;

•

our ability to manufacture EOS-448 and inupadenant or any other product candidate in conformity with the Food and Drug Administration’s requirements and to scale up manufacturing of our product candidates to commercial scale, if approved;

•

our ability to compete with companies currently producing or engaged in the clinical development of treatments for the disease indications that we pursue or treatment modalities that we develop;

•

our reliance on third parties to conduct our clinical trials;

•

our reliance on third-party contract manufacture organizations ("CMOs") to manufacture and supply our product candidates for us;

•

our ability to retain and recruit key personnel;

•

our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for EOS-448 and inupadenant or any other product candidates we may identify and pursue;

•

our estimates of our expenses, ongoing losses, future revenue, cash runway, capital requirements and our need for or ability to obtain additional financing;

•

our expectations regarding the time during which we will be an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act;

•

our future financial performance;

•

the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, including mitigation efforts and economic effects, on any of the foregoing or other aspects of our business operations, including but not limited to our preclinical studies and future preclinical and clinical trials;

•

the impact of laws and regulations applicable to our industry; and

•

developments and projections relating to our competitors or our industry.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying terminology. These statements are only predictions. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could materially affect our results and financial condition. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, those listed under the section titled “Risk factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and in any subsequent filings with the SEC. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or if underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual events or results may vary significantly from those implied or projected by the forward-looking statements. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents that we reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and have filed with the SEC and exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Statements regarding our cash runway do not indicate when we may access the capital markets.

While we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
