The Company plans to move forward with the manufacture of clinical trial and stability batches from at least one of the delivery technologies this quarter with a view to commencing clinical testing in the first half of 2026. The initial clinical indications that have been identified by the Company as targets include Microcystic Lymphatic Malformations and Venous Malformations among others. For each of these initial targets, there are currently no FDA approved treatments or cures.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

The Company cautions that statements in this Report that are not descriptions of historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words referencing future events or circumstances, such as “expect,” “intend,” “hope,” “plan,” “potential,” “anticipate,” “look forward,” “believe,” “may,” and “will,” among others. All statements that reflect the Company’s expectations, assumptions, projections, beliefs, or opinions about the future, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements relating to: clinical trial and stability batch manufacturing commencing in Q4 2025 and commencing clinical testing in 1H 2026 in a number of indications including microcystic lymphatic malformations and venous malformations and others. Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon the Company’s current expectations and involve assumptions that may never materialize or may prove to be incorrect. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of various risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the timing of the Company’s clinical studies may be delayed and other factors discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in other filings the Company has made and may make with the SEC in the future. One should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they were made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update such statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made, except as may be required by law.
