 of imports from most U.S. trading partners in April 2025, and elevated reciprocal tariffs on these countries may resume if or when a current 90-day pause that began in April 2025 expires. In addition, the United States initiated an investigation into pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical products in April 2025, the results of which could result in additional tariffs on pharmaceutical and pharmaceutical products under authorities provided in Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962; whether, when, which products, and at what level such items may become subject to these additional tariffs is uncertain. These and other changes in tariffs and trade policies of the United States or its trading partners may affect our products or our customers, and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Any recall of the manufacturing lots or similar action regarding our product candidates used in clinical trials could delay the trials or detract from the integrity of the trial data and its potential use in future regulatory filings. In addition, manufacturing interruptions or failure to comply with regulatory requirements by any of these manufacturers could significantly delay clinical development of potential products and reduce third-party or clinical researcher interest and support of proposed trials. These interruptions or failures could also impede commercialization of our product candidates and impair our competitive position. Further, we may be exposed to fluctuations in the value of the local currency in China. Future appreciation of the local currency could increase our costs. In addition, our labor costs could continue to rise as wage rates increase due to increased demand for skilled laborers and the availability of skilled labor declines in China. 

In addition to the use of tariffs and other traditional trade tools, the U.S. government has made and continues to make significant additional changes in U.S. trade policy and may continue to take future actions that could negatively impact U.S. trade. In particular, the U.S. has made or considered making a broad set of trade-related or security-related policy changes with respect to specific counterparty countries, most significantly China, to create various limitations on cross-border operations. For example, legislation has been introduced in Congress to limit certain U.S. biotechnology companies from using equipment or services produced or provided by select Chinese biotechnology companies, and others in Congress have advocated for the use of existing executive branch authorities to limit those Chinese service providers’ ability to engage in business in the U.S. We cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to trade relations between the United States and China or other countries, what products and services may be subject to such actions or what actions
