In some cases, these statements can be identified by the use of forward‑looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” or other similar words. These statements discuss future expectations and contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition, or state trends and known uncertainties or other forward‑looking information. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) include, without limitation, statements regarding:

•

our expectations regarding our financial performance, including revenues, expenses, liquidity, capital expenditures and income taxes;

•

our expectations regarding our products, including those expectations related to product development, regulatory filings, regulatory approvals and regulatory timelines, therapeutic and commercial scope and potential, and the costs and expenses related to such activities;

•

our expectations regarding the initiation, timing and results of clinical trials of our products;

•

our expectations regarding the competitive, payer and legal landscape, and changes therein, related to our products, including competition from generic forms of our products or competitive products and competitive development programs, barriers to access or coverage of our products and changes in reimbursement of our products, and legal measures (legislation, regulations or other measures) that may limit pricing and reimbursement of, and access to, our products;

•

our expectations regarding the financial impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations and valuations;

•

our expectations regarding future amortization of intangible assets;

•

our expectations regarding our collaborations, licensing arrangements and other significant agreements with third parties relating to our products, including our development programs;

•

our expectations regarding the impact of new legislation, rules, regulations and the adoption of new accounting pronouncements;

•

our expectations regarding near‑term changes in the nature of our market risk exposures or in management’s objectives and strategies with respect to managing such exposures;

•

our expectations regarding our ability to comply with restrictive covenants of our indebtedness and our ability to fund our debt service obligations;

•

our expectations regarding future capital requirements and capital expenditures and our ability to finance our operations and capital requirements;

•

our expectations regarding the timing, outcome and impact of administrative, regulatory, legal and other proceedings related to our products and intellectual property (“IP”), including our patents;

•

our expectations regarding the impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) on our business and operations; and

•

other factors discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Actual results might differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties. In light of these risks, assumptions and uncertainties, the forward-looking events discussed in this Form 10-Q might not occur. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the matters addressed in this Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements

contained or referred to in this section. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, we do not undertake any obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. For more information regarding the risks, assumptions and uncertainties of our business, see “Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Annual Report”) and “Part II, Item 1A—Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q.

This Form 10-Q may include data that we obtained from industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies. Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. This Form 10-Q also may include data based on our own internal estimates and research. Our internal estimates and research have not been verified by any independent source and, while we believe the industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies are reliable, we have not independently verified such data. Such third-party data and our internal estimates and research are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in “Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors” in our Annual Report and “Part II, Item 1A—Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q. These and other factors could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed in this Form 10-Q.
