We are required to identify the supplier(s) of all the raw materials for our products, including ZELSUVMI, in our applications with the FDA. To the extent practicable, our attempts to identify more than one supplier in each drug application. However, some products and raw materials are available only from a single source and, in some of our drug applications, only one supplier of products and raw materials has been identified, even in instances where multiple sources exist. To the extent any difficulties experienced by our suppliers cannot be resolved within a reasonable time and at reasonable cost, or if raw materials for a particular product become unavailable from an approved supplier and we are required to qualify a new supplier with the FDA, our profit margins and market share for the affected product could decrease and our development and sales and marketing efforts could be delayed or negatively impacted.

We have limited experience in producing commercial scale products that utilize the NITRICIL technology, which was assigned to Ligand in March 2024, including the API, berdazimer sodium, used in the ZELSUVMI product. Any delay or disruptions in the on-going qualification of manufacturing facilities and process or in the manufacture of our (i) API, including berdazimer sodium, or (ii) potential future clinical trial materials or commercial supplies of any other potentially approved product candidates utilizing the NITRICIL technology, could adversely affect our development and commercialization timelines and results or result in increased costs or in our breaching our obligations to others.

We internally manufacture the berdazimer sodium API that is utilized in our ZELSUVMI commercial product. Any delays or disruptions in our manufacturing processes and analytical methods for API testing and commercial manufacturing under cGMP guidelines and regulations, or our inability to execute such activities, could impact the commercialization efforts for ZELSUVMI and/or any future product candidate, as well as increase costs. Further, if we do not appropriately coordinate with, project manage or provide adequate internal expertise, resources and documentation with our third-party drug product manufacturer, we may not be successful, or may be delayed, in the commercialization of ZELSUVMI. We have a limited number of personnel who have experience in drug substance manufacturing and possess the expertise necessary to manufacture berdazimer sodium.

Orion Corporation (“Orion”), with whom we have formed a relationship to manufacture the commercial drug product for ZELSUVMI, including final fill/finish and packaging, must be successful in our execution of our commercial production strategy. For instance,
