We make such forward-looking statements pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential”, “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:
|
• |
our view as to potential future results of our ongoing commercialization efforts in the U.S. with respect to ZULRESSO™ (brexanolone) injection which is approved in the U.S. for the treatment of postpartum depression, or PPD, including our expectations with respect to: future revenues and sales momentum; the number of patients who may receive ZULRESSO for the treatment of PPD; the availability and willingness of healthcare settings to administer ZULRESSO; the scope, level and availability of reimbursement, including reimbursement for costs incurred by the healthcare settings that administer ZULRESSO, reimbursement of cost of treatment to the patient, and the nature of any limitations imposed by payors; and the level of market acceptance of ZULRESSO as a treatment for PPD by healthcare settings, prescribers and women suffering from PPD. |
|
• |
our expectations as to the sufficiency of our planned development program for SAGE-217 in major depressive disorder and PPD, if successful, to support filing of a New Drug Application, or NDA, with the FDA; our statements regarding the potential for approval of SAGE-217 in such indications in the U.S.; our plans and expectations for development of SAGE-217 in additional indications; our plans and expectations for commercialization of SAGE-217 and our view of the potential product profile, market impact, market size and opportunity for SAGE-217, if successfully developed and approved. |
|
• |
our plans to develop SAGE-324, SAGE-718 and our other product candidates in the central nervous system, or CNS, disorders we discuss in this Quarterly Report, and potentially in other indications and our view of the potential product profile and treatment paradigm impact for such product candidates, if successfully developed and approved; |
|
• |
our ability, within the expected time-frames, to initiate clinical trials and non-clinical studies of existing or future product candidates, including pivotal clinical trials, and to successfully complete and announce the results of ongoing or future clinical trials; |
|
• |
our plans and potential outcomes with respect to other research and development activities and our business development efforts; |
|
• |
our plans and expectations with respect to the potential development of any product or product candidate for markets outside the U.S.; |
|
• |
our estimates regarding expenses, use of cash and projected cash on hand at any given timepoint, timing of future cash needs, and capital requirements; |
|
• |
our expectations as to the amount of future revenues that may be achieved; |
|
• |
our expectations with respect to the availability of supplies of ZULRESSO and our product candidates, and the expected performance of our third-party manufacturers; |
|
• |
our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our proprietary assets and other forms of exclusivity relevant to our business; |
2
|
• |
the estimated number of patients with diseases or disorders of interest to us; the potential size of the market for ZULRESSO in PPD and for our product candidates in the indications we are studying or plan to study; the potential for ZULRESSO as a treatment for PPD and current or future product candidates, if successfully developed and approved, in the markets for which they are approved; and our ability to serve those markets; |
|
• |
the level of costs we may incur in connection with our activities, the possible timing and sources of future financings, and our ability to obtain additional financing when needed to fund future operations; |
|
• |
the potential for success of competing products that are or become available for PPD or any of the indications that we are pursuing or may pursue in the future with our product candidates; |
|
• |
the potential risk of loss of key scientific or management personnel; and |
|
• |
other risks and uncertainties, including those listed under Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors. |
Any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect our current views with respect to future events and with respect to our business and future financial performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, those described under Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available in the future.
We may from time to time provide estimates, projections and other information concerning our industry, the general business environment, and the markets for certain diseases, including estimates regarding the potential size of those markets and the estimated incidence and prevalence of certain medical conditions. Information that is based on estimates, forecasts, projections, market research or similar methodologies is inherently subject to uncertainties, and actual events, circumstances or numbers, including actual disease prevalence rates and market size, may differ materially from the information reflected in this Quarterly Report. Unless otherwise expressly stated, we obtained this industry, business information, market data, prevalence information and other data from reports, research surveys, studies and similar data prepared by market research firms and other third parties; industry, medical and general publications; government data; and similar sources, in some cases applying our own assumptions and analysis that may, in the future, prove not to have been accurate.
