This press release contains certain forward-looking
statements relating to our business, including our plans to develop
DNA medicines, our expectations regarding our research and
development programs, including the availability and timing of data
from the company's ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial of INO-4800 and
the company's plans and ability to outsource manufacturing of its
delivery devices to contract manufacturers. Actual events or
results may differ from the expectations set forth herein as a
result of a number of factors, including uncertainties inherent in
pre-clinical studies, clinical trials, product development programs
and commercialization activities and outcomes, the availability of
funding to support continuing research and studies in an effort to
prove safety and efficacy of electroporation technology as a
delivery mechanism or develop viable DNA medicines, our ability to
support our pipeline of DNA medicine products, the ability of our
collaborators to attain development and commercial milestones for
products we license and product sales that will enable us to
receive future payments and royalties, our ability to secure
adequate third-party manufacturing resources for the production of
our product candidates, including the transfer of necessary
processes, the adequacy of our capital resources, the availability
or potential availability of alternative therapies or treatments
for the conditions targeted by us or our collaborators, including
alternatives that may be more efficacious or cost effective than
any therapy or treatment that we and our collaborators hope to
develop, issues involving product liability, issues involving
patents and whether they or licenses to them will provide us with
meaningful protection from others using the covered technologies,
whether such proprietary rights are enforceable or defensible or
infringe or allegedly infringe on rights of others or can withstand
claims of invalidity and whether we can finance or devote other
significant resources that may be necessary to prosecute, protect
or defend them, the level of corporate expenditures, assessments of
our technology by potential corporate or other partners or
collaborators, capital market conditions, the impact of government
healthcare proposals and other factors set forth in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, our Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
2020 and other filings we make from time to time with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. There can be no assurance that
any product candidate in our pipeline will be successfully
developed, manufactured or commercialized, that final results of
clinical trials will be supportive of regulatory approvals required
to market products, or that any of the forward-looking information
provided herein will be proven accurate. Forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date of this release, and we undertake no
obligation to update or revise these statements, except as may be
required by law.
