Overview
We are a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and
commercialization of small molecules and biologics to address significant unmet
medical needs. Our clinical pipeline includes developmental treatments for
immune and fibrotic diseases as well as immuno-oncology therapies. Our
operations to date have been focused on developing first-in-class innovative
therapies for indications with significant unmet medical needs while leveraging
our commercial infrastructure. We believe that we have the ability to progress
these candidates ourselves while maintaining flexibility for commercial and
licensing arrangements. In addition to these discovery and development efforts,
our business strategy includes the efficient commercialization of these drugs in
the
Our revenues are difficult to predict and depend on several factors. For
example, our revenues depend, in part, on regulatory approval decisions for our
product and product candidates, the effectiveness of our and our collaborative
partners' commercialization efforts, market acceptance of our products,
particularly REZUROCK™ (belumosudil), the resources dedicated to our products
and product candidates by us and our collaborative partners, and our ability to
enter into or modify licensing agreements for our product candidates. We have
never been profitable and had an accumulated deficit of
Our operating expenses are also difficult to predict and depend on several factors, including commercialization expenses, research and development expenses, drug manufacturing, and clinical research activities, the ongoing requirements of our development programs and the availability of capital. As our commercialization activities for REZUROCK and research and development programs continue to advance, we expect our operating costs will increase. Management may be able to control the timing and level of research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses, but many of these expenditures will occur irrespective of our actions due to contractually committed activities and/or payments.
As a result of these factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons are not necessarily meaningful and you should not rely on them as an indication of future performance. The Company has sustained operating losses for the majority of its corporate history and the Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows until revenues reach a level sufficient to support ongoing operations. Due to all of the foregoing factors, it is possible that our operating results will be below the expectations of market analysts and investors. In such event, the prevailing market price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.

COVID-19 Update
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility in financial markets. While our financial condition, results of operations, cybersecurity and liquidity have not been materially impacted by the direct effects of the pandemic, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. We are continuing to monitor developments with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic and to make adjustments as needed to assist in protecting the safety of our employees and communities while continuing our business activities. To date, implementation of these measures has not required material expenditures or significantly impacted our ability to operate our business or our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. We are continuing to monitor the potential impacts of COVID-19 on our operations and those of our partners, suppliers, customers, and regulators, including commercial and clinical drug supply chain continuity and commercial launch of REZUROCK.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we cannot precisely predict the impact that the
COVID-19 pandemic will have in the future due to numerous uncertainties,
including the severity of the disease and its variants, the duration of the
pandemic, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, the impact to
the business of potential variations or disruptions in our supply chain, and
other factors identified in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" included in our

Revenue from sales of REZUROCK in future periods is subject to uncertainties and
will depend on several factors, including the success of our and our partners'
commercialization efforts in the
Financial Outlook for 2022
In the launch period for REZUROCK, expected to be through 2022, the Company is not providing specific revenue or operating guidance. Based on our expectations for revenue and operating expenses, we believe our current cash runway takes us into 2023.

Future Funding Requirements
Our operations have principally been funded through the issuance of equity and debt securities. As our commercialization activities and our planned research and development programs continue to advance, we expect our costs will increase. Furthermore, given the uncertain economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we will continue to monitor the nature and extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our liquidity and capital resources. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities.
The expected use of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable debt securities at
Our future working capital requirements, including the need for additional working capital, will be largely determined by the advancement of our portfolio of product candidates and commercialization of REZUROCK. More specifically, our working capital requirements will be dependent on:
?the timing, magnitude and scope of commercial spending and our development programs;
?regulatory approval of our product candidates;
?the costs of obtaining patent protection for our product candidates;
?the timing and terms of business development activities;
?the rate of technological advances relevant to our operations;
?the efficiency of manufacturing processes developed on our behalf by third parties; and
?the level of required administrative support for our daily operations.
