Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, including the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally may be identified by words such as “aims,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “possible,” “potential,” “seeks,” “will” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. All statements contained in this Report other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements, including without limitation statements regarding: Alumis’ plans to submit an NDA for envudeucitinib in the fourth quarter of 2026; anticipated regulatory interactions in systemic lupus erythematosus, including the potential for prespecified subgroup analyses to inform future Phase 3 development; the therapeutic potential of TYK2 inhibition across immune-mediated diseases and the potential multi-indication opportunity for envudeucitinib in interferon-driven diseases, including cutaneous lupus erythematosus and Sjögren’s disease; the development of A-005 for neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s Disease; the advancement of Alumis’ clinical pipeline; Alumis’ plans to evaluate opportunities to maximize the value of the Company’s TYK2 portfolio and Alumis’ future plans, strategy, prospects and anticipated milestones, as well as the assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements are based on Alumis’ current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections as of the date of this Report and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied by such statements. Readers are cautioned that actual results, timing, safety, efficacy, performance or events and circumstances may differ materially from those expressed or implied in Alumis’ forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, whether regulatory authorities accept for filing Alumis’ planned NDA submission as well as determine that envudeucitinib demonstrates an acceptable safety and efficacy profile and grant regulatory approval in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis; whether clinical results observed to date, including subgroup analyses, will be replicated in larger or later-stage clinical trials; the potential for envudeucitinib to be developed in additional indications; the timing and results of clinical trials; Alumis’ ability to obtain regulatory approval of and ultimately commercialize its product candidates, Alumis’ ability to obtain sufficient funding and achieve anticipated development objectives, and Alumis’ ability to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property protection for its programs and product candidates. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties are contained under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in Alumis’ filings with the SEC, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and subsequent filings with the SEC. Alumis explicitly disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.
