|
• |
Our relatively limited operating history and the inherent uncertainties and risks involved in biopharmaceutical product development and commercialization may make it difficult for us to execute on our
business model and for you to assess our future prospects.
|
|
• |
We may not be successful in our efforts to acquire or in-license new product candidates, and newly acquired or in-licensed product candidates may not perform as expected in clinical trials or be successful
in eventually achieving marketing approvals.
|
|
• |
We will likely incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never achieve sustained profitability.
|
|
• |
We face risks associated with the allocation of capital and personnel across our businesses.
|
|
• |
We face risks associated with the Vant structure.
|
|
• |
We face risks associated with potential future payments related to our product candidates.
|
|
• |
We face risks associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic transactions.
|
|
• |
We face risks associated with the use of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
|
|
• |
We are exposed to risks related to our significant holdings of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
|
|
• |
While we do not have a need for additional capital under our current operating plans as a result of our current cash position, we may in the future require additional capital to fund our operations. In that
case, if we fail to obtain necessary financing when needed, we may not be able to successfully acquire or in-license new product candidates, complete the development and commercialization of our product candidates following regulatory
approval and continue to pursue our drug discovery efforts.
|
|
• |
Our business strategy and potential for future growth relies on a number of assumptions, some or all of which may not be realized.
|
|
• |
Our drug discovery efforts may not be successful in identifying new product candidates.
|
|
• |
Unfavorable, uncertain and rapidly changing global and regional economic, political and public health conditions could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
|
|
• |
Inadequate funding for the FDA, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), SEC or other government agencies could hinder, delay or result in the suspension of, those agencies’ operations, which could harm
our business.
|
|
• |
Clinical trials and preclinical studies are very expensive, time-consuming, difficult to design and implement and involve uncertain outcomes. We may encounter substantial delays in clinical trials, or may
not be able to conduct or complete clinical trials or preclinical studies on the expected timelines, if at all.
|
|
• |
We may encounter difficulties enrolling and retaining patients in clinical trials, and clinical development activities could thereby be delayed or otherwise adversely affected.
|
|
• |
The results of our preclinical studies and clinical trials may not support our proposed claims for our product candidates or regulatory approvals on a timely basis or at all, and the results of earlier
studies and trials may not be predictive of future trial results.
|
|
• |
Interim, preliminary or top-line data from our clinical trials that we announce or publish from time to time may change as more patient data become available and are subject to audit and verification
procedures that could result in material changes in the final data.
|
|
• |
Changes in methods of product manufacturing or formulation may result in additional costs or delays.
|
|
• |
Obtaining approval of a new drug is an extensive, lengthy, expensive and inherently uncertain process, and the FDA or another regulatory authority may delay, limit or deny approval. We cannot give any
assurance that any of our product candidates will receive regulatory approval, which is necessary before they can be commercialized. If we are unable to obtain regulatory approval in one or more jurisdictions for any product candidate,
our business will be substantially harmed.
|
|
• |
Our clinical trials may fail to demonstrate substantial evidence of the safety and efficacy of product candidates that we may identify and pursue for their intended uses, which would prevent, delay or limit
the scope of regulatory approval and commercialization.
|
|
• |
Our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties that could halt their clinical development, delay or prevent their regulatory approval, limit the scope of any approved
label or market acceptance following regulatory approval or result in significant negative consequences.
|
|
• |
The regulatory approval processes of the FDA and comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities are lengthy, time consuming and inherently unpredictable, and gaining approval for a product candidate in one
country or jurisdiction does not guarantee that we will be able to obtain approval for or commercialize it in any other jurisdiction, which would limit our ability to realize our full market potential.
|
|
• |
We rely on third parties to conduct, supervise and monitor our clinical trials, and if those third parties perform in an unsatisfactory manner or fail to comply with applicable requirements, it may harm our
business.
|
|
• |
We do not have our own manufacturing capabilities and rely on third parties to produce clinical and commercial supplies of our product candidates. Any failure by these third parties to perform as expected
could have a material adverse effect on our business.
|
|
• |
We are highly dependent on our key personnel, and if we are not successful in attracting, motivating and retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business
strategy.
|
|
• |
The use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) could expose us to liability or adversely affect our business.
|
|
• |
If we are unable to obtain and maintain patent and other intellectual property protection for our technology and product candidates, or if the scope of the intellectual property protection obtained is not
sufficiently broad, we may not be able to compete effectively in our markets.
|
|
• |
If the patent applications we own or have in-licensed with respect to our product candidates fail to issue, if their validity, patentability, enforceability, breadth or strength of protection is threatened,
or if they fail to provide meaningful exclusivity for our product candidates, it could dissuade companies from collaborating with us to develop product candidates, and threaten our ability to commercialize our product candidates following
regulatory approval. Any such outcome could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
|
|
• |
The length of our patent terms may be inadequate to protect the competitive position of our product candidates for an adequate amount of time.
|
|
• |
If our performance does not meet market expectations, the price of our securities may decline.
|
|
• |
We have incurred and will continue to incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company and our management has devoted and will continue to devote a substantial amount of time to new
compliance initiatives.
|
|
• |
If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, investors may lose confidence in our
financial reporting and the trading price of our common shares may decline.
|
|
• |
Anti-takeover provisions in our memorandum of association and bye-laws, as well as provisions of Bermuda law, could delay or prevent a change in control, limit the price investors may be willing to pay in
the future for our common shares and could entrench management.
|
|
• |
Our largest shareholders own a significant percentage of our common shares and are able to exert significant control over matters subject to shareholder approval.
|
|
• |
Future sales and issuances of our or the Vants’ equity securities or rights to purchase equity securities, including pursuant to our or the Vants’ equity incentive and other compensatory plans, will result
in additional dilution of the percentage ownership of our shareholders and could cause our share price to fall.
|
|
• |
Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our common shares by us or our existing shareholders could cause the market price for our common shares to decline and impact our ability to raise capital
in the future.

• |
Leveraging our business development expertise to identify and in-license promising drug candidates: We assembled our product candidate pipeline by
leveraging our business development expertise and vast network of industry relationships to relentlessly pursue opportunities to in-license or acquire programs where we believe we can deliver successful outcomes on accelerated timelines.
Our pipeline expansion has been enabled by our strong track record of rapid and high-quality execution, as well as our ability to maintain a robust balance sheet to fund programs through development.
|
|
• |
Creating nimble, entrepreneurial Vants: Vants operate similarly to independent biotechnology companies
where each management team is focused on its respective mission and is economically incentivized to maximize value through Vant-specific equity grants. Each of our Vant teams is built with deep relevant expertise to ensure successful
execution of its particular development strategy. The Vant model is designed to facilitate rapid decision making and calculated risk taking, by empowering, aligning and incentivizing Vant teams around the outcomes of their specific
product candidates.
|
|
• |
Allocating capital to maximize R&D efficiency: We apply an objective, rigorous decision-making
framework across the drug development process designed to ensure resources and capital are continuously directed towards programs we believe have the highest probability of success and away from those that fail to meet our rigorous
internal hurdles. We centralize capital allocation decisions at the Roivant level, while distributing operational decisions to the Vants, allowing us to strategically deploy capital in high growth areas, regardless of potentially
competing operational priorities.
|
|
• |
Maintaining a diversified pipeline with various risk profiles: We have built a broad and differentiated
pipeline that includes several drug candidates across different therapeutic areas, phases of development, modalities and geographies. This approach limits our exposure to concentrated scientific and biological risks and allows us to
pursue multiple innovative hypotheses across our portfolio as we seek to develop therapies for patient populations with high unmet need.
|
|
• |
Designing creative “win-win” deal structures: We structure our partnerships to balance risk and the potential for future value creation. We ensure
a significant proportion of near-term expenses go toward development, allowing us to stage our investment and align incentives as well as limit losses in the event of a setback. Our scale and proven track record of developing successful
product candidates assures partners we are uniquely capable of maximizing value for patients and investors.
|
|
• |
Developing and deploying proprietary technologies: We believe we are able to develop transformative
medicines faster by building and applying computational tools to drug discovery, development and commercialization. We occupy a unique position at the intersection of biopharma and technology, having built our capabilities in parallel,
optimizing each for synergy with the other, in contrast to big pharma who have added software tools to legacy workflows or technology startups that lack experience developing drugs. Vants have access to, and are supported by, these
technologies.
|
|
• |
Providing operating leverage through centralized support functions: Our model allows us to accelerate Vant
formation and maturation by centralizing and sharing certain support functions across various Vants. Vants also benefit from access to our vast network of scientific experts, physicians and technologists to help optimize their clinical
development and plans for commercialization.

|
Roivant
|
|
• |
Announced the completion of the sale of Dermavant to Organon for aggregate consideration of up to approximately $1.2 billion, including an upfront payment of $175 million received at closing in October
2024, a $75 million milestone payment for FDA approval of VTAMA for the treatment of atopic dermatitis, received by Roivant in January 2025, and up to $950 million payable upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones. In
addition, Organon will pay tiered royalties on net sales of VTAMA. Roivant did not retain any Dermavant liabilities or obligations post-closing.
|
|
• |
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, Roivant repurchased a total of 128 million common shares for $1.3 billion. Common shares outstanding at March 31, 2025 were reduced by 14% from March 31, 2024.
|
• |
Brepocitinib
|
|
• |
Reported positive results in the Phase 2 NEPTUNE study of once-daily oral brepocitinib in non-infectious uveitis (“NIU”). Brepocitinib
demonstrated potential best-in-indication results on median time to treatment failure, the registrational endpoint, showing greater than 12 months for the 45 mg dose arm (not measurable because there was only a 35% treatment failure
rate at the end of the 12 month treatment period) and 9.3 months for the 15 mg dose arm. Meaningful improvements in other important measurements including retinal vascular leakage and prevention and treatment of macular edema were also
observed.
|
|
• |
Initiated a Phase 3 program in NIU; topline data expected in the first half of calendar year 2027.
|
|
• |
Initiated a Phase 2 study in cutaneous sarcoidosis (“CS”) as the third indication for brepocitinib; topline data expected in the second half of calendar year 2026.
|
|
• |
Completed enrollment of ongoing Phase 3 study in dermatomyositis; topline data expected in the second half of calendar year 2025.
|
• |
Anti-FcRn Franchise
|
|
• |
Reported top-line results of our Phase 3 study of batoclimab in myasthenia gravis (“MG”), which met its primary endpoint of change in MG-ADL from baseline in AChR+ patients. The 680 mg weekly by SC
injection dose set a new benchmark for magnitude of benefit with a 5.6 point mean improvement and 93% MG-ADL Response Rate. Batoclimab demonstrated strong durability of Minimal Symptom Expression (MG-ADL = 0 or 1) (“MSE”) with 75% of
patients who achieved MSE on 680 mg dose by week 6 maintaining MSE status for ≥6 weeks. On the same day, we also announced the initial results from period 1 of the Phase 2b study of batoclimab in chronic inflammatory demyelinating
polyneuropathy (“CIDP”) following standard of care washout, which demonstrated a mean improvement in the adjusted INCAT disability score of 1.8 across batoclimab arms and an 84% responder rate in those patients who achieved an IgG
lowering greater than 70%. In both batoclimab studies, deeper IgG reductions correlated with better clinical outcomes across a range of assessments and timepoints. Batoclimab was well tolerated with no new safety signals identified.
|
|
• |
Reported additional positive results from the Phase 2a trial of batoclimab in Graves’ disease. Participants in the trial received 12 weeks of high dose
batoclimab, 680 mg weekly by SC injection followed by 12 weeks of lower dose batoclimab, 340 mg weekly SC. At the end of the first 12 weeks, participants experienced a mean IgG reduction of 77% leading to a 76% Response Rate (defined as
T3 and T4 falling below the upper limit of normal without increasing the antithyroid drug (“ATD”) dose). In addition, by the end of 12 weeks of higher dose batoclimab, 56% achieved an ATD-Free Response. During Weeks 13 to 24, the lower
340 mg dose of batoclimab resulted in a mean IgG reduction of 65% (vs. 77% on 680mg dose) with a correspondingly lower responder rate of 68%. In addition, a lower ATD-Free Response Rate of 36% was also observed in the second 12 weeks.
Patients who achieved at least a 70% IgG reduction at the end of the trial had nearly a threefold higher ATD-Free Response Rate than those who did not (60% vs. 23%). Batoclimab was well tolerated with no new safety signals identified.
|
|
• |
Six total INDs cleared for IMVT-1402, with studies initiated in five indications: potentially registrational trials in Graves’ disease (“GD”), difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis, MG and CIDP, and a
proof-of-concept trial in cutaneous lupus erythematosus. We also plan to initiate a potentially registrational trial evaluating IMVT-1402 in Sjögren’s disease and a second potentially registrational trial in GD in the summer of calendar
year 2025. Results from Phase 3 trials of batoclimab in thyroid eye disease are expected in the second half of calendar year 2025.
|
• |
Mosliciguat
|
|
• |
Announced new pipeline program mosliciguat, a potential first-in-class and best-in-category inhaled soluble guanylate cyclase (“sGC”) activator with targeted delivery to the lungs and once-daily
administration. Inhaled mosliciguat is initially being developed for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (“PH-ILD”), with potential to expand to other cardiopulmonary indications including
additional pulmonary hypertension groups.
|
|
• |
In the Phase 1b ATMOS study (N=38) of mosliciguat following single dose inhaled administration in pulmonary hypertension (“PH”)
patients, clinically meaningful mean-max reductions in pulmonary vascular resistance (“PVR”) of up to approximately 38% were observed and were sustained over the study period. These reductions represent some of the highest reductions seen
in PH trials to date.
|
|
• |
Initiated Phase 2 “PHocus” study of mosliciguat in approximately 120 patients with PH-ILD; topline data expected in the second half of calendar year 2026.
|
• |
Patent Infringement Litigation
|
|
• |
Continued to progress patent infringement litigation against Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech in the United States.
|
|
• |
Initiated five patent infringement enforcement actions against Moderna outside of the United States, targeting alleged infringing activities in 30 countries.
|
|
• |
The court in the U.S. Moderna case has informed the parties that it plans to update the timing for the summary judgment phase and jury trial, previously
scheduled for the second or third quarter of calendar year 2025 and September 2025, respectively.
|
|
• |
Markman hearing held in the Pfizer/BioNTech case in December 2024, with ruling potentially to come in calendar year 2025.

Overview:
|
|
• |
Priovant is developing brepocitinib, a potent small molecule inhibitor of TYK2 and JAK1, for the treatment of dermatomyositis (“DM”), non-infectious uveitis (“NIU”), cutaneous sarcoidosis (“CS”) and other
immune-mediated diseases.
|
• |
Lead program:
|
|
• |
Brepocitinib is a potentially first-in-class, orally administered, small molecule inhibitor of TYK2 and JAK1 that suppresses signaling of TYK2- and JAK1-dependent cytokines linked to autoimmune disease,
including type I and type II interferon, IL-6, IL-12 and IL-23.
|
• |
Disease overview:
|
|
• |
DM is a chronic, immune-mediated disease of the skin and muscles. Patients with DM usually present with a characteristic skin rash and proximal muscle weakness, which may lead to significant functional
impairment or disfigurement. Patients with DM are at a substantially increased risk of interstitial lung disease, malignancy and heart failure, contributing to an estimated 5-year mortality rate of 10-40%.
|
|
• |
NIU is an immune-mediated disease of the eye. Patients with NIU usually present with eye inflammation, which can manifest as eye pain, eye redness, light sensitivity, blurred vision, reduced vision and
floaters. Patients with NIU are at a substantially increased risk of blindness, contributing to approximately 10% of cases of blindness in the U.S.
|
|
• |
CS is an immune-mediated disease of the skin. CS is the second-most common organ manifestation among sarcoidosis patients and can be disfiguring in cases with significant facial or body surface area
involvement. Patients with CS usually present with macules, papules, plaques or nodules. Uncontrolled disease often progresses to cartilage and bone destruction and permanent deformity.
|
|
• |
We estimate that there are approximately 37,000 adult DM patients, approximately 400,000 adult NIU patients, including 70,000 to 100,000 adult non-anterior NIU patients, and approximately 30,000 to 50,000
adult CS patients in the U.S.
|
• |
Limitations of current treatments:
|
|
• |
Corticosteroids, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (“DMARDs”) and immunosuppressants, administered alone or in combination, are traditional therapies for patients with DM, NIU and CS. Many of these
therapies are associated with significant toxicities and limited efficacy.
|
|
• |
For patients with DM who do not respond adequately to traditional therapies, IVIg (OCTAGAM 10%) is an important FDA-approved treatment. However, clinical trial data from the Phase 3 ProDERM study of IVIg in
patients with DM and case reports from years of prior off-label use confirm that even with IVIg, many patients with DM continue to suffer from residual disease activity. Moreover, IVIg administration is burdensome, typically requiring
several hours of infusion therapy for multiple days each month. IVIg also has a black box warning for serious risks, including thrombosis and kidney failure.
|
|
• |
For patients with NIU who do not respond adequately to traditional therapies, adalimumab (HUMIRA) administered subcutaneously, is the only FDA-approved modern treatment. NIU patients treated with HUMIRA
have failure/relapse rates of approximately 50%, indicating a large unmet need for more efficacious treatment options.
|
|
• |
Treatment for patients with CS follows a step-up paradigm that mirrors other inflammatory skin disease, including intralesional or high-potency topical steroids, systemic corticosteroids and TNF inhibitors,
thalidomide and other off-label agents. There are currently no approved modern therapies for patients with CS.
|
• |
Clinical data:
|
|
• |
Brepocitinib has been evaluated in seven positive completed Phase 2 studies in immune-mediated diseases (alopecia areata, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, plaque psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa,
Crohn’s disease and non-infectious uveitis). In the six placebo-controlled studies, treatment with brepocitinib was associated with statistically significant and clinically meaningful efficacy. In the Phase 2 NEPTUNE proof-of-concept
study, brepocitinib demonstrated the best time to treatment failure observed to date among active NIU studies measuring this registrational endpoint.

|
• |
Brepocitinib’s safety database includes over 1,500 exposed participants evaluated in completed and ongoing clinical studies. In these studies, brepocitinib was generally safe and well tolerated, and rates
of JAK class treatment-emergent adverse events (“TEAEs”) of interest were comparable to those observed in the development programs of approved JAK inhibitors. Collectively, these data suggest a safety profile that is similar to those of
approved JAK inhibitors.
|
|
• |
In the Phase 2 NEPTUNE study of once-daily oral brepocitinib in NIU, the 45 mg results represented the best Treatment Failure rates observed to date among active NIU studies measuring this endpoint. On the
pre-specified primary efficacy endpoint of Treatment Failure at week 24, a composite endpoint comprising multiple measures of ocular inflammation and visual acuity, as well as discontinuation due to intercurrent events or initiation of
rescue therapy, 29% of subjects receiving brepocitinib 45 mg and 44% of subjects receiving brepocitinib 15 mg met Treatment Failure criteria (lower failure rates reflect greater treatment benefit). The Treatment Failure rate from disease
activity (discontinuations censored) was 18% in the brepocitinib 45 mg arm. All secondary efficacy endpoints were also positive and dose responsive, including measurements of potential benefit on prevention and treatment of uveitic
macular edema. 52-Week data from the same study confirmed sustained treatment effect and tolerability. Brepocitinib was generally safe and well tolerated in the study, with no new safety and tolerability signals identified.
|
|
• |
Brepocitinib has not been evaluated in DM to date. However, several FDA-approved JAK inhibitors have been clinically validated in DM patients refractory to standard-of-care therapies, as reported in more
than 600 off-label case reports and in several open-label clinical trials. In addition, since DM pathobiology is driven by dysregulations in cytokines whose signaling is mediated by both TYK2 and JAK1, we believe that, with its unique
dual inhibition of both TYK2 and JAK1, brepocitinib, as compared to inhibitors selective to either TYK2 or JAK1, has the potential to demonstrate superior clinical efficacy in DM.
|
|
• |
Brepocitinib has not been evaluated in CS to date. However, proof-of-concept data from approximately 20 JAK-treated patients with CS have shown clinically meaningful responses. In addition, since CS
pathobiology is driven by dysregulations in cytokines whose signalling is mediated by both TYK2 and JAK1, we believe brepocitinib, as compared to inhibitors selective to either TYK2 or JAK1, has the potential to demonstrate superior
clinical efficacy in CS. Brepocitinib has also been observed to outperform other JAK inhibitors (cross-trial) in inflammatory skin disease, such as alopecia areata, plaque psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa.
|
• |
Development plan and upcoming milestones:
|
|
• |
Priovant has completed enrollment for a large randomized, controlled Phase 3 study of brepocitinib in patients with refractory
dermatomyositis. This study has enrolled 241 subjects in total and will evaluate 15 mg and 30 mg of brepocitinib once-daily compared to placebo. The primary endpoint of this study is the mean Total Improvement Score, a validated
myositis improvement index, at Week 52. Topline data are expected in the second half of calendar year 2025.
|
|
• |
Priovant has initiated a Phase 3 program in non-infectious uveitis; topline data are expected in the first half of calendar year 2027.
|
|
• |
Priovant has initiated a Phase 2 study in cutaneous sarcoidosis; topline data are expected in the second half of calendar year 2026.

Overview:
|
|
• |
Immunovant is developing IMVT-1402, a potentially best-in-class inhibitor of the neonatal fragment crystallizable receptor (“FcRn”), for the treatment of
IgG-mediated autoimmune diseases, including Graves’ disease (“GD”), difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (“D2T RA”), Sjögren’s disease (“SjD”), myasthenia gravis (“MG”), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (“CIDP”) and
cutaneous lupus erythematosus (“CLE”).
|
• |
Lead program:
|
|
• |
IMVT-1402 is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits FcRn and has shown deep, dose-dependent IgG reductions in a Phase 1
clinical trial in healthy adults. We expect to be able to reach approximately 80% IgG reductions with continued weekly dosing of 600 mg of IMVT-1402, offering deeper IgG reductions than observed with other competitor anti-FcRn programs.
There has been consistent evidence observed across the class in over eight indications in Phase 2 and 3 trials with FcRn inhibitors that deeper IgG reductions correlate with meaningful improvements in clinical outcomes, further
validated by data generated with our first-generation anti-FcRn, batoclimab, in our own Phase 2 and 3 studies. IMVT-1402 offers a potentially best-in-class profile, with potentially best-in-class efficacy given its potential to achieve
best-in-class IgG reductions, a favorable route of administration with a simple subcutaneous auto-injector, and potentially favorable safety profile.
|
|
• |
IMVT-1402 is being developed in several indications representing potential first-in-class and best-in-class opportunities, including GD, D2T RA and CLE,
and we plan to leverage the potentially best-in-class profile of IMVT-1402 in indications where the anti-FcRn mechanism already has established a commercial presence, such as MG and CIDP. We plan to be laser-focused on clinical
execution to maintain our head start in the indications listed above and to be nearly-first and best-in-class for indications such as SjD where we are close from a timing perspective to in-class competition and expect a differentiated
clinical profile.

Disease overview:
|
|
• |
Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid gland. Patients with Graves’ disease develop IgG autoantibodies that bind to the
thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (“TSHR-Ab”) present on the thyroid gland, which induces increased and uncontrolled secretion of thyroid hormones, resulting in hyperthyroidism. The presence of TSHR-Ab is also involved in the
pathogenesis of Graves’ ophthalmopathy (“GO”), also known as TED, which is more likely to occur in patients with Graves’ disease who have a more severe degree of hyperthyroidism, larger goiter, history of smoking, or have been treated
with radioiodine (“RAI”). A conservative analysis of Inovalon claims data estimates that the prevalence of Graves’ patients is approximately 880,000 in
the U.S., and further analysis suggests that there are approximately 330,000 patients who have relapsed on ATDs and who have opted not to pursue ablation.
|
|
• |
MG is a rare, chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by weakness and fatigue of voluntary muscles. MG patients develop
autoantibodies that lead to an immunological attack on critical signaling receptor proteins at the junction between nerve and muscle cells, thereby inhibiting the ability of nerves to communicate properly with muscles. The prevalence of
MG is estimated to be approximately 59,000 to 116,000 cases in the U.S. with 35% of patients not well-controlled on the current standard of care, representing approximately 20,000 to 35,000 patients with significant unmet medical need
in the U.S.
|
|
• |
CIDP is believed to be an immune-mediated neuropathy characterized by demyelination of peripheral nerves and nerve roots that is driven
by pathologic, autoreactive IgG antibodies. The estimated prevalence of CIDP is approximately 58,000 patients in the U.S., with approximately 30% inadequately controlled on treatment, representing approximately 16,000 patients with
significant unmet medical need in the U.S.
|
|
• |
RA is a chronic progressive autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the joints and surrounding tissues. D2T RA is a subgroup of
RA patients that have failed at least 3 classes of therapy. Inadequate control of the joint inflammation associated with RA may result in irreversible joint erosions. Several autoantibodies have been identified in RA, including rheumatoid
factor (“RF”) and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (“ACPA”). The estimated prevalence of severe RA in the U.S. is approximately 490,000, approximately 15% of whom are autoantibody positive with inadequate response to prior biologic
or targeted synthetic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (“DMARDs”), representing approximately 70,000 patients with significant unmet medical need in the U.S.
|
|
• |
SjD is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the salivary and lacrimal glands. Autoantibodies including anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB have been detected in approximately 50-70% of patients with primary
SjD and play crucial roles in both the diagnosis and prognosis of the disease. The estimated prevalence of primary SjD is approximately 290,000 in the United States. It is estimated that up to 30% of primary SjD patients have
moderate-to-severe disease with anti-Ro/SSA antibodies, representing approximately 90,000 SjD patients with significant unmet medical need in the U.S.
|
|
• |
CLE is a rare, chronic skin disease characterized by skin-specific disease activity, inflammation and eventually damage. IgG
autoantibodies and immune complexes are observed to play a critical role in CLE disease pathophysiology. Subacute Cutaneous LE (“SCLE”) and Chronic Cutaneous LE (“CCLE”) are subtypes of CLE with distinct skin presentation and clinical
course and high unmet medical need. The estimated prevalence of SCLE and CCLE is approximately 153,000 in the U.S. Approximately 50% of these SCLE and CCLE patients do not adequately respond to first-line therapies representing
approximately 75,000 patients with significant unmet medical need in the U.S.
|
• |
Limitations of current treatments:
|
|
• |
For many IgG-mediated autoimmune diseases, early-stage disease control involves corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, later progressing to intravenous immunoglobulin (“IVIg”) or plasma exchange (“PLEX”).
Immunomodulatory therapies are frequently associated with significant potential risks, including the possibility of malignancy and infection. These approaches are generally limited by delayed onset of action, waning therapeutic benefit
over time, and unfavorable safety profiles.
|
|
• |
GD: There are three options available for GD: surgery, RAI and oral antithyroid drugs (“ATDs”). Rates of surgery and RAI have
declined significantly in the U.S. in recent years due to associated severe potential complications. While ATDs are considered generally safe, their chronic use can be associated with hepatotoxicity, pancreatitis and bone marrow
toxicity, and up to 25-30% of GD patients remain uncontrolled on ATDs.
|
|
• |
MG: Early-stage MG is symptomatically treated with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. As the disease progresses, patients are typically treated with immunosuppressive agents such as glucocorticoids, azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil
and cyclosporine. Recently approved novel mechanism of action therapies for MG include FcRn inhibitors, which generally reduced IgG by 60-70% in their Phase 3 trials at approved doses, and complement
inhibitors. We believe there is unmet need for a higher efficacy benefit and a more durable clinical responses for patients with MG.
|
|
• |
CIDP: IVIg, corticosteroids and PLEX are first-line therapies in the treatment of CIDP. An anti-FcRn inhibitor has also been approved for the treatment of CIDP; however, we believe there is still meaningful room to improve on efficacy.
|
|
• |
D2T RA: Currently available treatments used to help control joint inflammation, damage and other manifestations of RA include a variety of conventional oral, targeted synthetic and biologic DMARDs. D2T RA
patients continue to experience active disease despite undergoing multiple lines of therapy with different mechanisms of action. For these patients, therapeutic options remain very limited, highlighting a persistent and critical unmet
medical need.
|
|
• |
SjD: No therapies have been approved specifically for the treatment of SjD. Therapeutic approaches for SjD include local agents for oral and ocular dryness as well as systemic treatments to address organ manifestations. There is a
significant need for the development of novel treatments that target the underlying pathophysiological mechanism of this disease.
|
|
• |
CLE: First-line therapies for CLE include photoprotection, topical steroids and broad-spectrum therapies (i.e. DMARDs, antimalarials and corticosteroids) followed by IVIG or off-label biologics. It is
estimated that approximately 50% of patients are not optimally managed with or without topical steroids due to insufficient response, relapse, or risk of retinopathy following first-line antimalarials.
|
• |
Clinical data:
|
|
• |
In September and November 2023, we announced results from a Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy adults dosed with IMVT-1402. In the study’s 300 mg multiple-ascending dose (“MAD”) cohort, a statistically
significant reduction of 63% from baseline in mean total IgG levels was observed after four weekly 300 mg subcutaneous doses of IMVT-1402. In the 600 mg MAD cohort, we observed a statistically significant reduction of 74% from baseline in
mean total IgG levels after four weekly 600 mg subcutaneous doses of IMVT-1402. No or minimal reductions in albumin and no or minimal increases in LDL cholesterol levels were observed in healthy adults administered IMVT-1402 in either
dose cohort; the changes in albumin and LDL cholesterol were similar to those observed with placebo administration. Across all doses evaluated, treatment with IMVT-1402 was generally well tolerated, with only mild or moderate
treatment-emergent adverse events observed.
|
|
• |
In September 2024, we reported additional positive results from the Phase 2a trial of batoclimab in Graves’ disease. Participants in the trial received 12 weeks of high dose batoclimab, 680 mg weekly by SC
injection followed by 12 weeks of lower dose batoclimab, 340 mg weekly SC. At the end of the first 12 weeks, participants experienced a mean IgG reduction of 77% leading to a 76% Response Rate. In addition, by the end of 12 weeks of
higher dose batoclimab, 56% achieved an ATD-Free Response. During Weeks 13 to 24, the lower 340 mg dose of batoclimab resulted in mean IgG reduction of 65% (vs. 77% on 680mg dose) with a correspondingly lower responder rate of 68%. In
addition, a lower ATD-Free Response Rate of 36% was also observed in the second 12 weeks. Patients who achieved at least a 70% IgG reduction at the end of the trial had nearly a threefold higher ATD-Free Response Rate than those who did
not (60% vs. 23%). Batoclimab was well tolerated with no new safety signals identified.
|
|
• |
In March 2025, we announced top-line results of our Phase 3 study of batoclimab in MG, which met its primary endpoint of change in the Myasthenia Gravis
Activities of Daily Living (“MG-ADL”) score from baseline in acetylcholine receptor antibody positive (“AChR+”) patients. The 680 mg weekly by SC injection dose set a new benchmark for magnitude of benefit with a 5.6 point mean
improvement in MG-ADL and a 93% Response Rate (defined as a ≥ 2-point reduction in MG-ADL from baseline). Batoclimab demonstrated strong durability of Minimal Symptom Expression (MG-ADL = 0 or 1) (“MSE”) with 75% of patients who
achieved MSE on 680 mg dose by week 6 maintaining MSE status for ≥ 6 weeks. On the same day, we also announced the initial results from period 1 of the Phase 2b study of batoclimab in CIDP following standard of care washout, which
demonstrated a mean improvement in the adjusted inflammatory neuropathy cause and treatment (“aINCAT”) disability score of 1.8 across batoclimab arms and an 84% responder rate in those patients who achieved an IgG lowering greater than
70%. In both batoclimab studies, deeper IgG reductions correlated with better clinical outcomes across a range of assessments and timepoints. Batoclimab
was well tolerated with no new safety signals identified.
|
|
• |
In April 2025, we presented observations from a proof-of-principle case study evaluating IMVT-1402 in an SCLE patient over a period of 12 weeks. The participant in the case study had a
baseline Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease area and Severity Index activity (“CLASI-A”) score at screening of 36, which falls into the severe range of the clinical scale. The participant received open-label weekly treatment with 600
mg of IMVT-1402 for 12 weeks and saw significant clinical improvement in both skin lesions and alopecia. By week 12, the participant had a greater than 60% reduction in CLASI-A score to 13. A 5-point reduction in CLASI-A is considered
clinically meaningful and this participant improved by 23 points by week 12. The participant also achieved approximately 78% total IgG reduction from baseline by week 12. A second patient dosed in this study also showed significant
clinical improvement, with a CLASI-A score of 18 at screening reduced to 8 by week 12 of QW dosing, a >50% improvement.
|
• |
Development plan and upcoming milestones:
|
|
• |
We are currently progressing a broad set of programs for IMVT-1402. Over the last fiscal year, we announced the clearance of six investigational new drug (“IND”) applications to support clinical trials to
evaluate IMVT-1402. We have now initiated studies in five indications: potentially registrational trials in GD, difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (“D2T RA”), MG and CIDP, and a proof-of-concept trial in cutaneous lupus erythematosus
(“CLE”). We also plan to initiate a potentially registrational trial evaluating IMVT-1402 in Sjögren’s disease (“SjD”) and a second potentially registrational trial in GD in the summer of 2025. All studies evaluating IMVT-1402 are being
conducted using the intended commercial drug formulation and delivery device, the YpsoMate® autoinjector developed by Ypsomed AG, which is utilized by multiple approved products.
|
|
• |
We expect to report additional remission data from the Phase 2 trial of batoclimab in GD in summer 2025 and top-line data from the Phase 3 program of batoclimab in TED in the second half of calendar year
2025. As previously disclosed, we will make a final decision about future development and regulatory submissions for batoclimab in the future based on the aggregate information available at the time.

Overview:
|
|
• |
Pulmovant is developing mosliciguat for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (“PH-ILD”) and potentially other cardiopulmonary diseases.
|
• |
Lead program:
|
|
• |
Mosliciguat is a potentially first-in-class and potentially best-in-category once daily, inhaled sGC activator. Mosliciguat is
currently being developed in PH-ILD, which is a large, well-validated market with only two approved treatments (both inhaled treprostnil), which are limited to the U.S. and a small number of other countries. In a dose escalation,
proof-of-concept Phase 1b trial that assessed the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of mosliciguat following single dose inhaled administration in pulmonary hypertension (“PH”) patients, clinically meaningful mean-max
reductions in pulmonary vascular resistance (“PVR”) of up to approximately 38% were observed and were sustained over the study period. These reductions represent some of the highest reductions seen in PH trials to date.

Pulmonary hypertension is a heterogeneous and highly morbid disease that can occur clinically as an isolated disorder or as a complication associated with other diseases and conditions. PH leads to increased blood pressure in the
arteries of the lung and right side of the heart. WHO Group 3 PH is comprised of patients with various types of concomitant, chronic lung diseases and represent approximately 40% of all PH patients, including PH-ILD and PH-COPD. Features
of PH-ILD include progressive fibrosis and hypoxemia, lung function decline resulting in respiratory failure, pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular failure with progressive symptom worsening and early mortality.
|
|
• |
PH-ILD is estimated to affect up to 200,000 patients in the U.S. and E.U.
|
|
• |
PH-ILD has been historically underdiagnosed given the diverse nature of the underlying diseases and the lack of approved treatment strategies based on a definitive diagnosis. The use of right heart
catheterization (“RHC”) and other diagnostic modalities to confirm definitive diagnosis is expected to grow with the availability of approved PH-ILD treatments, thus expanding the market for mosliciguat. Among the ILD patients under the
care of 25 physicians surveyed in 2021, 29% had a diagnosis of PH-ILD that was confirmed by RHC, while another 30% had suspected PH-ILD but had not received a confirmed diagnosis via RHC. These physicians also indicated they would
increase the percent of PH-ILD patients on whom they perform RHC by a factor of approximately 1.5x with the availability of other PH therapies.
|
• |
Limitations of current treatments:
|
|
• |
The treatment of PH-ILD patients is based on an individualized and holistic approach. Patients with mildly elevated PVR or mean pulmonary arterial pressure (“mPAP”) can mainly be treated for their underlying lung disease which includes
antifibrotic medications and immunosuppressants. Patients whose PVR and mPAP are significantly elevated in the context of their fibrotic lung disease should be treated with PH-specific treatments. However, Tyvaso and Yutrepia (inhaled
treprostinils) are the only approved treatments for PH-ILD patients in the U.S., with Tyvaso also available in a small number of other countries. Most patients outside of these geographies, including in the E.U., have no approved options.
They can potentially be considered on a case-by-case basis for off-label treatment with pulmonary arterial hypertension (“PAH”)-specific drugs not approved for PH-ILD.
|
|
• |
Even with Tyvaso’s and Yutrepia’s availability, there is still substantial unmet need for new drugs for PH-ILD with improved efficacy, tolerability and delivery. Patients on Tyvaso have been observed to have side effects impeding them
from realizing optimal benefit at the maximum dose level. On-target adverse events such as cough, headache, throat pain, nausea and flushing may cause tolerability issues for patients on Tyvaso and have also been observed less frequently
in patients on Yutrepia. The same tolerability concerns have largely relegated prostacyclin usage in PAH to high-risk and advanced disease patients. We believe there is a significant opportunity for an agent like mosliciguat, given its
inhaled, once a day administration and potentially improved efficacy and tolerability compared to Tyvaso and Yutrepia, to be used as initial therapy in place of inhaled treprostinil or as an add-on treatment to inhaled treprostinil.
|
• |
Clinical data:
|
|
• |
Phase 1b data from the non-randomized, open-label ATMOS study with a single inhaled dose of mosliciguat showed dose-dependent mean-max reductions in PVR of up to 38% in Group 1 (PAH) and Group 4 (CTEPH) PH patients, and demonstrated a
favorable safety profile with no clinically relevant systemic side effects, such as heart rate and blood pressure changes. Trials of other agents in PAH have shown that reductions in PVR are potential predictors of success on clinical
outcomes such as 6-minute walk distance.
|
• |
Development plan and upcoming milestones:
|
|
• |
We have initiated and are actively enrolling a global Phase 2 trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mosliciguat in PH-ILD, with data expected in the second half of calendar year 2026.

Genevant seeks to partner with other pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies in the development of RNA therapeutics, crafting
mutually beneficial collaborations that allow collaboration partners to access its innovative technologies while providing Genevant the opportunity to leverage its expertise to expand the technology and its therapeutic application.
|
|
• |
Genevant uses its expertise in the delivery of nucleic acid therapeutics to develop optimal delivery systems for its collaborators’ identified payloads.
|
|
• |
Genevant’s collaboration-based business model is to seek upfront payments, R&D reimbursements, milestones and royalties or profit sharing upon success, while also retaining certain rights in the
delivery-related intellectual property developed in the context of the collaboration for potential use or out-licensing.
|
|
• |
Some current collaboration partners include Novo Nordisk, BioNTech, Takeda, Korro Bio, Repair Biotechnologies, Editas Medicine, Epitopea and Mammoth Biotechnologies.
|
• |
Clinical and preclinical data:
|
|
• |
Genevant LNP technology has been in clinical trials of over a dozen distinct product candidates, representing hundreds of subjects of clinical experience.
|
|
• |
In a head-to-head study in mice comparing multiple LNP formulations which varied only the key ionizable lipid, Genevant’s formulation
outperformed all third-party formulations tested. Genevant’s formulation showed superior potency and tolerability (based on an assessment of immune stimulation) relative to others.
|
|
• |
Genevant LNP technology is included in the first systemic RNA-LNP product to receive FDA-approval,
Alnylam’s Onpattro (patisiran) for the treatment of polyneuropathy caused by hereditary ATTR amyloidosis.
|
• |
IP litigation:
|
|
• |
In February 2022, Genevant and Arbutus jointly filed a complaint against Moderna in the U.S. District Court for the District of
Delaware asserting infringement of six patents. In April 2024, the court in the Moderna case issued its claim construction (Markman) ruling, in which it agreed with Genevant and Arbutus’ proposed constructions for three of the four
disputed terms. In March 2025, Genevant and Arbutus initiated patent infringement enforcement actions against Moderna in Canada, Japan, Switzerland and the Unified Patent Court. Together, the enforcement actions target alleged
infringing activities in 30 countries. The court in the U.S. Moderna case has informed the parties that it plans to update the timing for the summary judgment phase and jury trial, previously scheduled for the second or third quarter of
calendar year 2025 and September 2025, respectively.
|
|
• |
In April 2023, Genevant and Arbutus Biopharma jointly filed a complaint against Pfizer and BioNTech in the U.S. District Court for the
District of New Jersey asserting infringement of five patents. In December 2024, the Court in the Pfizer case held a Markman hearing to construe disputed terms within the claims of the asserted patents. The Court has not provided
guidance for the timing of its ruling, which could potentially be in calendar year 2025.
|

Phase 1 clinical trials generally involve a small number of healthy volunteers or disease-affected patients who are initially exposed to a single dose and then multiple doses of the product candidate. The
primary purpose of these clinical trials is to assess the metabolism, pharmacologic action, side effect tolerability and safety of the product candidate.
|
|
• |
Phase 2 clinical trials involve studies in disease-affected patients to evaluate proof of concept and determine the dose required to produce the desired benefits. At the same time, safety and further PK and
PD information is collected, possible adverse effects and safety risks are identified, and a preliminary evaluation of efficacy is conducted.
|
|
• |
Phase 3 clinical trials generally involve a large number of patients at multiple sites and are designed to provide the data necessary to demonstrate the effectiveness of the product for its intended use,
its safety in such use and to establish the overall benefit/risk relationship of the product and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.

healthcare programs.
|
|
• |
established a new Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectiveness research, along with funding for such research. The research
conducted by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute may affect the market for certain pharmaceutical products. The ACA established the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation within CMS to test innovative payment and service
delivery models to lower Medicare and Medicaid spending, potentially including prescription drug spending.
|
|
• |
The centralized MA is issued by the European Commission through the centralized procedure, based on the opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (the “CHMP”), of the EMA, and is valid
throughout the entire territory of the EEA. The centralized procedure is mandatory for certain types of products, such as biotechnology medicinal products, orphan medicinal products, advanced-therapy medicinal products (gene-therapy,
somatic cell-therapy or tissue-engineered medicines) and medicinal products containing a new active substance indicated for the treatment of HIV, AIDS, cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, diabetes, auto-immune and other immune
dysfunctions and viral diseases. The centralized procedure is optional for products containing a new active substance not yet authorized in the EEA, or for products that constitute a significant therapeutic, scientific or technical
innovation or which are in the interest of public health in the EEA.
|
|
• |
National MAs, which are issued by the competent authorities of the Member States of the EEA and only cover their respective territory, are available for products not falling within the mandatory scope of
the centralized procedure. If a product is to be authorized in more than one Member State, the assessment procedure is coordinated between the relevant E.U. Member States. Where a product has already been authorized for marketing in a
Member State of the EEA, the national MA can be recognized in another Member State through the mutual recognition procedure. If the product has not received a national MA in any Member State at the time of application, it can be approved
simultaneously in various Member States through the decentralized procedure. Under the decentralized procedure an identical dossier is submitted to the competent authorities of each of the Member States in which the MA is sought, one of
which is selected by the applicant as the Reference Member State (the “RMS”). The competent authority of the RMS coordinates the preparation of a draft assessment report, a draft summary of the product characteristics (the “SmPC”), and a
draft of the labeling and package leaflet, which are sent to the other Member States (referred to as the Concerned Member States) for their final approval. If the Concerned Member States raise no objections, based on a potential serious
risk to public health, to the assessment, SmPC, labeling, or packaging circulated by the RMS, the coordinated procedures is closed, and the product is subsequently granted a national MA in all the Member States (i.e., in the RMS and the
Concerned Member States).

• | the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which is a criminal law that prohibits, among other things, persons and entities from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce or reward, or in return for, either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, lease, order or recommendation of, any good, facility, item or service, for which payment may be made, in whole or in part, under a federal healthcare program (such as Medicare and Medicaid). The term “remuneration” has been broadly interpreted by the federal government to include anything of value. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting certain activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly, and arrangements may be subject to scrutiny or penalty if they do not fully satisfy all elements of an available exception or safe harbor. Practices that involve remuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do not qualify for an exception or safe harbor. A person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation; in addition, the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute may result in civil monetary penalties up to $100,000 for each violation. Civil penalties for such conduct can further be assessed under the federal False Claims Act. Violations can also result in criminal penalties, including criminal fines and imprisonment of up to 10 years. Similarly, violations can result in exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare and Medicaid; |

• |
the federal false claims laws, including the False Claims Act, which imposes civil penalties, including through civil whistleblower or qui tam actions, against individuals or entities for knowingly
presenting, or causing to be presented, to the federal government, claims for payment that are false or fraudulent; knowingly making, using or causing to be made or used, a false record or statement material to a false or fraudulent
claim; or knowingly making or causing to be made, a false statement to avoid, decrease or conceal an obligation to pay money to the federal government. The False Claims Act provides for suit by the federal government or private
parties (qui tam relator) and when an entity is determined to have violated the federal civil False Claims Act, the government may impose significant civil fines and penalties for each false
claim or statement for penalties assessed after January 30, 2023, plus treble damages, and exclude the entity from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs;
|
|
• |
the federal health care fraud statute (established by HIPAA), which imposes criminal and civil liability for, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to
defraud any healthcare benefit program or making false or fraudulent statements relating to healthcare matters; similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or
specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation;

providers (collectively, “covered entities”), and such covered entities’ “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agents of covered entities that create, receive or obtain personally identifiable health information
in connection with providing a service for or on behalf of the covered entity;

the federal Civil Monetary Penalties Law, which authorizes the imposition of substantial civil monetary penalties against an entity that engages in activities including, among others (1) knowingly
presenting, or causing to be presented, a claim for services not provided as claimed or that is otherwise false or fraudulent in any way; (2) arranging for or contracting with an individual or entity that is excluded from
participation in federal health care programs to provide items or services reimbursable by a federal health care program; (3) violations of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute; or (4) failing to report and return a known overpayment;
|
|
• |
the federal Physician Payments Sunshine Act, which requires certain manufacturers of drugs, devices, biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the
Children’s Health Insurance Program (with certain exceptions) to report annually to the government information related to payments or other “transfers of value” made to physicians, certain other healthcare providers and teaching
hospitals, and requires applicable manufacturers and group purchasing organizations to report annually to the government ownership and investment interests held by the physicians described above and their immediate family members and
payments or other “transfers of value” to such physician owners (covered manufacturers are required to submit reports to the government by the 90th day of each calendar year);

healthcare providers and other potential referral sources; state laws that require pharmaceutical companies to comply with the pharmaceutical industry’s voluntary compliance guidelines and the relevant compliance guidance promulgated
by the federal government, and state laws that require drug manufacturers to report information related to payments and other transfers of value to physicians and other healthcare providers or marketing expenditures;

The total number of common shares purchased set forth in this column is based on the trade date of the repurchase transaction (not the settlement date of the repurchase transaction), including 270,000 common shares which were
repurchased on March 31, 2025, with a settlement date of April 1, 2025.
|
|
(2) |
On April 2, 2024, we announced that our board of directors had authorized a common share repurchase program, allowing for repurchases of Roivant common shares in an aggregate amount of up to $1.5 billion (excluding fees and
expenses). The timing and total amount of common shares repurchased depends on several factors, including the market price of our common shares, general business, macroeconomic and market conditions and other investment opportunities.
Under the repurchase program, purchases may be conducted through open market transactions, tender offers or privately negotiated transactions, including the use of trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. Please refer to Note 8, “Shareholders’ Equity” to Roivant’s consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information related to share repurchases. The table excludes
fees and commissions payable in connection with common share repurchases.
|
|
* |
In addition to the repurchase transactions set forth above, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, we withheld 3,790,584 common shares associated with net share settlements to cover (i) tax withholding obligations upon the
vesting and settlement of equity incentive awards issued under our equity incentive plans, including RSUs and CVARs and (ii) the payment of the exercise price of certain stock options.

Clinical Trial Accrual
|
||
Description of the Matter
|
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company accrues costs for clinical trial activities based upon estimates of the services received
and related expenses incurred that have yet to be invoiced by contract research organizations. In making these estimates, the Company considers various factors, including status and timing of services performed, the number of patients
enrolled and the rate of patient enrollment.
Auditing the Company’s accrual for clinical trial costs is complex due to the fact that information necessary to estimate the accruals is accumulated from clinical
research organizations and the Company’s assessment of that information is subject to variability and uncertainty. In addition, in certain circumstances, the determination of the nature and amount of services that have been received
during the reporting period requires judgment because the timing and pattern of vendor invoicing does not correspond to the level of services provided and there may be delays in invoicing from clinical study sites and other vendors.
|
|
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
|
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls that addressed the
identified risks related to the information used in the Company’s process for recording clinical trial accruals. For example, we tested controls over management’s review of clinical trial progress in comparison to information and invoices
received from third parties, and over the completeness and accuracy of data used to calculate the accrual.
To test the clinical trial accrual, our audit procedures included, among others, reading a sample of the Company’s agreements with the
service providers to understand key financial and contractual terms and testing the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data used in the accrual computations. We also evaluated management’s estimates of the vendor’s progress for a
sample of clinical trials by making direct inquiries of the Company’s operations personnel overseeing the clinical trials and obtaining information directly from certain service providers about the service providers’ estimate of costs
that had been incurred through March 31, 2025. To evaluate the completeness of the accruals, we also examined subsequent invoices from the service providers and cash disbursements to the service providers, to the extent such invoices were
received, or payments were made prior to the date that the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Valuation of Investment in Datavant
|
||
Description of the Matter
|
At March 31, 2025, the fair value of the Company’s minority equity investment in Heracles Parent, L.L.C. (“Datavant”) was $167.4 million and was classified as Level 3
within the fair value hierarchy. As discussed in Notes 4 and 14 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has elected the fair value option to account for its investment in Datavant. Management determines the fair value of the
Company’s investment in Datavant using the income approach, market approach, and implementation of the option pricing method, which uses significant unobservable inputs. Determining the fair value of the Company’s investment in Datavant
requires management to make significant judgments about the valuation methodologies, including the unobservable inputs and other assumptions and estimates used in the measurements.
Auditing the fair value of the Company’s investment in Datavant is especially complex and requires substantial auditor judgment due to the
significant estimation required in determining the fair value of the investment in Datavant. In particular, to value its investment in Datavant, the Company used significant unobservable inputs such as the discount rate, revenue growth
rate, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and terminal growth rate, which are affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions.
|
|
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
|
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the process for valuing the Company’s investment in
Datavant, including controls over management’s review of the significant inputs described above.
To test the fair value of the Company’s investment in Datavant, our audit procedures included, among others, assessing the valuation methodologies used and testing the
significant unobservable inputs discussed above, including testing the completeness, accuracy and relevance of underlying data used by the Company in the valuation. We compared the significant inputs and underlying data used by management
to current industry and economic trends, historical financial results, and other relevant factors. We analyzed the significant unobservable inputs to evaluate the change in the fair value of the Company’s investment in Datavant resulting
from changes in the inputs. We also assessed the historical accuracy of the underlying financial projections developed by Datavant by comparing to actual historical results. In addition, we involved our valuation specialists to assist in
evaluating the valuation methodology and significant unobservable inputs described above used to develop the fair value estimate. The valuation specialists’ procedures included independently developing fair value estimates and comparing
them to the amounts recorded.

Level 1-Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities.
|
|
• |
Level 2-Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active
markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and models for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
|
|
• |
Level 3-Valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable (supported by little or no
market activity) and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Licenses of
intellectual property: If a license to intellectual property is determined to be distinct from the other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenue from the portion of the transaction
price allocated to the license when the license is transferred to the licensee and the licensee is able to use and benefit from the license. For licenses that are not distinct from other promises, the Company applies judgment to assess
the nature of the combined performance obligation to determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time and, if over time, the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of
recognizing revenue from non-refundable, upfront fees. The Company evaluates the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjusts the related revenue recognition accordingly.
|
|
• |
Milestone payments:
At the inception of each arrangement that includes research, development or regulatory milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether the milestones are considered probable of being reached and estimates the amount to be included in
the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within
the control of the Company or the licensee, such as regulatory approvals, are not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. The transaction price is then allocated to each performance obligation on a
relative standalone selling price basis, for which the Company recognizes revenue as or when the performance obligations under the contract are satisfied. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, the Company re-evaluates the
probability of achievement of such development milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjusts its estimate of the overall transaction price on a cumulative catch-up basis in earnings in the period of the adjustment.
|
|
• |
Royalties and
commercial milestone payments: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including commercial milestone payments based on a pre-specified level of sales, the Company recognizes revenue at the later of (i) when the
related sales occur or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied). Achievement of these royalties and commercial milestones may solely depend
upon performance of the licensee.

Retention Award Agreement
|
![]() |
1. |
Cash Retention Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you shall be entitled to receive a Cash Retention Award from Roivant in the aggregate amount of $80,550,000.00, less applicable withholdings for taxes and other deductions. The Cash Retention Award shall be paid to you within thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement (the “Payment Date”), subject to (i) your continued full-time employment with Roivant or one of its affiliates in good standing (including, without limitation, good performance and adherence to company policies) through the
Payment Date, which such good standing determination shall be made by Roivant in its sole discretion, (ii) the forfeiture and recoupment provisions set forth in Section 2 and (iii) the other terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your employment is terminated due to your death or Disability (as defined below) prior to the Payment Date, you shall be eligible to receive a Cash Retention Award, subject to your (or, in the
case of your death, your estate’s) execution and nonrevocation of a Release (as defined below) that becomes effective and irrevocable within 60 days following your termination date.
|
2. |
Recoupment.
|
|
(a) |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event (x) your employment in good standing with Roivant terminates or otherwise ceases for any reason (except as provided in Section 2(b) below) or (y) you breach any of
your Restrictive Covenant Obligations (as defined below), in each case on or prior to September 30, 2025 (each, a “Recoupment Event”), then:
|
|
(i) |
if such Recoupment Event occurs on or before September 30, 2024, you shall repay to Roivant an amount in cash equal to $30,000,000.00 of the Cash Retention Award (on a before-tax basis) (the “First Clawback Amount”); and
|
|
(ii) |
if such Recoupment Event occurs after September 30, 2024 and on or before September 30, 2025, then you shall repay to Roivant an amount in cash equal to $15,000,000.00 of the Cash Retention Award (on a before-tax basis) (the “Second Clawback Amount” and together with the First Clawback Amount, the “Clawback Amount”).
|
CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ROIVANT SCIENCES LTD. (THE “COMPANY”) HAS DETERMINED THAT THE INFORMATION (I) IS
NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.
|
|
(b) |
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event your employment is terminated (i) by Roivant without Cause or (ii) due to your death or Disability, in each case, prior to September 30, 2025, then you will not be required to repay any portion
of the Cash Retention Award, provided that you (or, in the case of your death, your estate) execute and do not revoke a release of claims that becomes effective and irrevocable within 60 days following your termination date, which shall
release claims similar to those described in the General Release attached as Exhibit A to the Employment Agreement, accrued through the date of execution of such release (a “Release”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you fail to execute such Release (or you execute but then revoke such Release), then your termination of employment under this Section 2(b) shall be deemed a Recoupment Event for purposes of this Agreement,
effective as of the date of your termination.
|
|
(c) |
Upon the occurrence of a Recoupment Event, you are required to repay to Roivant the aggregate applicable Clawback Amount in a cash lump sum in immediately available funds promptly upon written notice by Roivant, and in all cases within
ten (10) business days following the date of such notice by Roivant.
|
|
(d) |
[***]
|
|
(e) |
[***]
|
|
(f) |
For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall have the meaning set forth in your Employment Agreement, provided that the existence of Disability shall be determined by the Compensation
Committee of Roivant Sciences Ltd. in its sole and absolute discretion.
|
CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ROIVANT SCIENCES LTD. (THE “COMPANY”) HAS DETERMINED THAT THE INFORMATION (I) IS
NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.
|
3. |
Confidentiality. You acknowledge and agree that this Agreement (including the existence, terms and amount of the Cash Retention Award) is confidential in nature, and you agree that you will keep
this Agreement confidential and you will not, without Roivant’s prior written consent, disclose the existence of this Agreement, the Cash Retention Award or any other terms or conditions related thereto to any employee or other service
provider of Roivant, its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates or any other person (other than your attorney, accountant or spouse (who shall also be bound by this confidentiality covenant to the same extent you are bound by it) or as
required by law). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or otherwise prohibits from disclosing this Agreement to, or from cooperating with or reporting violations to or initiating communications with, the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any other governmental entity or other self-regulatory organization, and you may do so without notifying Roivant. Neither Roivant or any of its subsidiaries or its
affiliates may retaliate against you for any of these activities, and nothing in this Agreement or otherwise requires you to waive any monetary award or other payment you might become entitled to from the SEC or any other governmental
entity or self-regulatory organization.
|
4. |
Withholding. Any payments made or benefits provided to you under this Agreement shall be reduced by any applicable withholding taxes or other amounts required to be withheld by law or contract.
Roivant, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall make all determinations as to whether it is obligated to withhold any taxes hereunder and the amount hereof.
|
5. |
Section 409A and Section 457A. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with or are exempt from Section 409A and Section 457A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”) (together with the regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, “Section 409A” and “Section 457A”, respectively), and all provisions of this Agreement will be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent
with such intent. In no event shall Roivant or any of its affiliates be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Section 409A or Section 457A. For purposes of Section 409A, each right to a
payment hereunder will be deemed a “separate payment” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(iii).
|
6. |
No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement will confer upon you any right to continued employment with Roivant (or its
affiliates or subsidiaries), affect your “at-will” employment status or otherwise interfere in any way with the right of Roivant (or any of its subsidiaries affiliates) to terminate your employment at any time.
|
7. |
No Right to Future Awards. The Cash Retention Award provided to you under this Agreement is discretionary. This Cash Retention Award does not confer on you any right or entitlement to receive any
other retention or incentive award at any time in the future or in respect of any future period.
|
8. |
Other Benefits. The Cash Retention Award is a special payment to you and will not be taken into
account in computing the amount of salary or compensation for purposes of determining any severance, bonus, incentive, pension, retirement, death or other benefit under any other severance, bonus, incentive, pension, retirement, insurance
or other employee benefit plan of Roivant or any of its affiliates, unless such plan or agreement expressly provides otherwise.
|
9. |
Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect of the subject matter contained herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings between the parties, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by written agreement signed by each of the parties.
|
10. |
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflicts or law principles thereof.
|
11. |
Arbitration. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Cash Retention Award hereunder shall be governed by the arbitration provision set forth in
Section 6 of the Employment Agreement, which such provision shall be incorporated by reference as set forth herein and shall apply to this Agreement mutatis mutandis.
|

NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE COMPANY IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.
|
12. |
Severability. The holding of any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, which shall
remain in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement shall be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced in whole or in part, such provision shall be interpreted so as
to remain enforceable to the maximum extent permissible consistent with applicable law and the remaining conditions and provisions or portions thereof shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and enforceable to the extent they are
valid, legal and enforceable.
|
13. |
Assignability. You may not assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer any of your rights or obligations under this Agreement. Roivant may transfer or assign, in whole or from time to time in part, to
one or more of its affiliates, or to any successor to one or more of its businesses, its rights or obligations under this Agreement without your consent.
|
14. |
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same original.

Vesting:

The PSUs shall consist of six (6) vesting tranches, with the number of PSUs allocated to each such tranche set forth in the table below (each, a “Tranche”).
Each Tranche of PSUs will vest on the first date that both of the “Service Condition” and the “Performance Condition” applicable to such Tranche have been satisfied (together, the “Vesting Conditions”).
Any PSUs underlying any Tranche that has satisfied both of the applicable Vesting Conditions in accordance with this PSU Agreement as of any relevant date of determination are referred to as
the “Vested PSUs” and the date on which both such Vesting Conditions applicable to any Tranche of PSUs have been satisfied in accordance with the terms of this PSU Agreement is
referred to as the “Vesting Date”. Any PSUs underlying any Tranche that has not satisfied both of the Vesting Conditions in accordance with this PSU Agreement as of any relevant
date of determination are referred to as the “Unvested PSUs”.
The Committee shall have sole and exclusive authority and discretion to make all determinations and resolve all ambiguities, questions and disputes relating to the satisfaction of the
Performance Condition and/or Service Condition and the level of earning and vesting of the PSUs.
|
||
|
Performance Condition:
|
Subject to the terms set forth below, the Performance Condition applicable to each Tranche will be deemed satisfied on the first date during the Performance Period (as defined below) upon which the Share Price
Hurdle Achievement (as defined below) with respect to such Tranche has occurred, in accordance with the following table:

For purposes of this PSU Agreement:
• “Performance Condition Satisfaction Date” means,
with respect to any Tranche of PSUs, the date during the Performance Period on which Share Price Hurdle Achievement occurs with respect to such Tranche.
• “Performance Period” means the period beginning on
the Grant Date and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary thereof.
• “Share Price Hurdle” means the price per Common Share set forth in the table above; provided that the Share Price Hurdles set forth in the table
above shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits intended to be provided under this PSU Agreement in the event of Capitalization Adjustments.
• “Share Price Hurdle Achievement” means, with respect
to any applicable Tranche, the occurrence of (a) the trailing thirty (30) consecutive trading day volume weighted average trading price per Common Share (rounded to the nearest second decimal place), as reported following the close of any
trading day by Bloomberg L.P. (or its successor, or if not available, by another authoritative source selected by the Committee) on any trading day during the Performance Period, beginning on the thirtieth (30th) trading day of the Performance Period (the “30-Day VWAP”) exceeding (b) the Share Price Hurdle applicable to such
Tranche. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Share Price Hurdle Achievement for any Tranche must occur with respect to trading days occurring during the Performance Period, and any trading days outside of the Performance
Period will not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Share Price Hurdle Achievement for any Tranche has occurred; provided, however, if the Performance Period ends when
the 30-Day VWAP immediately prior to (and including) the closing price on the last day of the Performance Period is between $25.00 and $30.00 (such share price, the “Final Share Price”),
then a pro-rata portion of the PSUs underlying the Sixth Tranche of PSUs will be deemed to have satisfied the Performance Condition on the last day of the Performance Period, determined as follows: (i) the number of PSUs underlying the
Sixth Tranche multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is equal to (x) the Final Share Price minus (y) $25.00, and (B) the denominator
of which is $5.00 (the “Sixth Tranche Proration Treatment”). In the event the Shares are not listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market as of any relevant date of determination
during the Performance Period, then any reference in this Award Agreement to The Nasdaq Global Select Market will be deemed to refer to the principal securities exchange or market on which the Common Shares are traded or quoted.
|
For the avoidance of doubt, the PSUs underlying any Tranche shall be forfeited and cancelled in their entirety without any payment to the extent that the Share Price Hurdle Achievement for such Tranche does not occur.
|
|||
Service Condition:
|
Subject to the terms and conditions of this PSU Agreement, the Service Condition applicable to each Tranche will be satisfied on the first anniversary of the Performance Condition Satisfaction Date applicable to such Tranche (such
first anniversary date, the “Service Condition Satisfaction Date”), subject to the Participant’s Continuous Service through such applicable Service Condition Satisfaction Date.
For the avoidance of doubt, satisfaction of the Service Condition applies on a Tranche-by-Tranche basis, with each Tranche having a separate Service Condition Satisfaction Date, which will be the one-year anniversary of the Performance
Condition Satisfaction Date applicable to such Tranche (which may vary from Tranche to Tranche). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Service Condition shall not apply in the event of a termination of Continuous Service due to death or
Disability.
|
||
Change in Control:
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this PSU Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the end of the Performance Period, with respect to any Tranche of PSUs for which
the Performance Condition has not otherwise been previously satisfied prior to the date of such Change in Control, the Performance Condition applicable to such Tranche shall be deemed satisfied, as of immediately prior to the consummation
of such Change in Control, to the extent that the price per Share received by the Company’s shareholders pursuant to such Change in Control (including the per share value of any other consideration received by the Company’s shareholders
pursuant to such Change in Control) (the “Transaction Price Per Share”) exceeds the Share Price Hurdle applicable to such Tranche, as determined by the Committee in its good
faith discretion.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Transaction Price Per Share is less than or equal to the Share Price Hurdle applicable to any Tranche for which the Performance
Condition has not otherwise been satisfied as of the date of such Change in Control, the PSUs underlying any such Tranche shall be forfeited and cancelled in their entirety without any payment to Participant (subject to the Sixth Tranche
Proration Treatment described above, assuming for these purposes that the Transaction Price Per Share is the Final Share Price). For the avoidance of doubt, the Performance Period shall be deemed to end on the date of the Change in
Control and achievement of the Performance Condition for any Tranche which has not previously satisfied will be assessed as of such date based on the Transaction Price Per Share.
|
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change in Control, any outstanding Tranche of PSUs which has either previously satisfied the Performance Condition prior to the date of such Change in Control, or which is deemed to have satisfied the Performance Condition upon the Change in Control based on the Transaction Price Per Share, as described above, shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest based on the satisfaction of the Service Condition (subject to the provisions regarding treatment upon a termination of Continuous Service, as set forth below). | |||
Termination of Continuous Service:
|
Except as provided below, in the event of the termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service for any reason prior to the Service Condition Satisfaction Date (for the avoidance of
doubt, regardless of whether the Performance Condition has been previously satisfied), any Unvested PSUs will be immediately forfeited and canceled without any payment to the Participant as of the date of the Participant’s termination of
Continuous Service (the “Termination Date”) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any Vested PSUs will remain outstanding in accordance with the terms of this PSU Agreement and the
Plan).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of the termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service (x) by the Company without Cause (as defined below), (y) due to the
Participant’s death or Disability (as defined below) or (z) due to the Participant’s resignation for Good Reason (as defined below), any Tranche of PSUs that has previously satisfied the Performance Condition shall be deemed to fully vest
(and the PSUs underlying such Tranche shall constitute Vested PSUs) as of the Participant’s Termination Date (any such PSUs, the “Accelerated PSUs”). For the avoidance of doubt,
the foregoing acceleration shall apply only to a Tranche of PSUs to the extent the foregoing described qualifying termination of Continuous Service occurs on or after the Performance Condition Satisfaction Date and before the Service
Condition Satisfaction Date applicable to such Tranche.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of the Participant’s termination of Continuous Service for Cause, all outstanding PSUs (whether Vested PSUs or Unvested PSUs)
will be forfeited and canceled in their entirety without any payment to the Participant.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” and “Good Reason” shall have
the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Participant’s employment agreement with the Roivant Sciences, Inc. (as amended from time to time) (the “Employment Agreement”).
For purposes of this PSU Agreement, “Disability” shall have the meaning set forth in the Participant’s Employment
Agreement, provided that the existence of a Disability shall be determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion.
|
Post-Vesting Holding Period:
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Plan, the Participant may not, directly or indirectly, sell, dispose of, transfer, alienate, hypothecate, assign, make any short
sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging, pledging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale with respect to, any Common Shares issued to the Participant upon settlement of any Vested
PSUs for a period of two (2) years immediately following the applicable Service Condition Satisfaction Date (the “Post-Vesting Holding Period”); provided that, with respect to any Accelerated PSUs, the Post-Vesting Holding Period shall in no event end prior to the
second anniversary of the originally scheduled Service Condition Satisfaction Date applicable to such Accelerated PSUs.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Post-Vesting Holding Period shall not apply with respect to any Common Shares required to be withheld, tendered or sold to satisfy applicable Tax
Withholding Obligations (as defined in the PSU Award Agreement) pursuant to the terms of Section 11(b) of the PSU Award Agreement, and (ii) the Post-Vesting Holding Period shall cease to apply (A) upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control or (B) upon the termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service due to death or Disability.
|
||
Release of Claims:
|
The Participant agrees and acknowledges that the vesting and settlement of the PSUs is conditioned upon the Participant’s timely execution and non-revocation of the release of claims provided to the
Participant by the Company on the date hereof (the “Release”). Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event the Participant fails to timely
execute the Release within the consideration period set forth in the Release, or the Participant timely executes the Release but thereafter revokes the Release, the PSUs shall be automatically forfeited and cancelled in their entirety
immediately following the expiration of such consideration period or upon the revocation of the Release, as applicable.
|
||

|
The Participant acknowledges receipt of, and understands and agrees to, this PSU Grant Notice, the PSU Award Agreement and the Plan. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that PSU Agreement may not be modified,
amended or revised except as provided in the Plan. The Participant further acknowledges that as of the Grant Date, this PSU Agreement and the Plan set forth the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding this

Introduction

Insider Trading Policy
|
|
• |
transactions conducted in accordance with this Policy; or
|
|
• |
transactions directly with the Roivant Group Companies (e.g., option exercises for cash under the equity incentive plans of Roivant Group Companies).
|
|
• |
Trading Generally. It is always illegal to, and it is a violation of this Policy for you to, buy, sell or otherwise transact in securities of Roivant Group Companies or any other publicly traded company with which we
have dealings while in possession of material non-public information about such company.
|
|
• |
Tipping. It is also illegal to, and it is a violation of this Policy for you to, communicate or “tip” such information to others who do not have a legitimate business need to receive such information. You can
be held liable both for your own transactions and for transactions effected by a so-called “tippee” (or even further attenuated transactions – e.g., a tippee of a tippee).
|
|
• |
Hedging and Derivatives. Company personnel are prohibited from engaging in any derivative transactions (including transactions involving options, puts, calls, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or other derivatives) that are
designed to hedge against or speculate on any change in the market value of Roivant’s equity securities. Company personnel are also prohibited from short selling Roivant’s securities. These prohibitions apply at all times, even during the
Window.
|
|
o |
Trading in options or other derivatives is generally highly speculative and can be very risky. People who buy options are often betting that the stock price will move rapidly. For that reason, when a person trades in options in his or
her employer’s stock, it may arouse suspicion in the eyes of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or other regulators that the person was trading on the basis of inside information,
particularly where the trading occurs before a company announcement or other major event. It is often difficult for a director, executive officer or employee to rebut such allegations and affirmatively prove that he or she did not know
about the announcement or event, which can make defending against such an allegation challenging.
|
|
o |
If the SEC or FINRA were to notice active options trading by one or more directors, executive officers or employees of the Company prior to an announcement, they would likely investigate. Such an investigation could be embarrassing to
the Company (as well as expensive) and could result in severe penalties and expenses for the persons involved. For all of these reasons, the Company prohibits directors, executive officers and employees
from engaging in derivative transactions as described above involving Roivant’s common shares. This prohibition on hedging and derivative transactions does not apply to transactions in employee stock options granted by Roivant
(which are otherwise subject to the terms of this Policy).
|
|
• |
financial results or forecasts;
|
|
• |
acquisitions or dispositions of assets, companies, etc.;
|
|
• |
results of clinical trials or pre-clinical studies;
|
|
• |
communications with government agencies;
|
|
• |
strategic plans;
|
|
• |
discovery and development of new product candidates;
|
|
• |
licensing transactions;
|
|
• |
negotiations to enter into certain transactions with third parties;
|
|
• |
certain business development activities with third parties;
|
|
• |
pending public or private sales of debt or equity securities;
|
|
• |
declaration of share splits, dividends or changes in dividend policy;
|
|
• |
major contract awards or cancellations;
|
|
• |
top management or control changes;
|
|
• |
possible tender offers or proxy fights;
|
|
• |
significant write-offs;
|
|
• |
significant litigation;
|
|
• |
impending bankruptcy;
|
|
• |
gain or loss of significant partners, customers or suppliers;
|
|
• |
pricing changes or discount policies;
|
|
• |
partner or collaborator relationships; and
|
|
• |
notice of issuance of patents.
|
• |
a “Specified Person” is any (a) immediate family member of a Covered Insider, (b) individuals who share the same address as, or are financially dependent on, any Covered Insider, (c) individual,
whether or not a family member, whose trades are subject to the direction of a Covered Insider and (d) entities whose trading activities are controlled by or influenced by any Covered Insider, including any controlled corporations,
partnerships or trusts, are subject to the same restrictions as those of the Covered Insider himself or herself, in each case other than any Non-Covered Person.
|
|
• |
a “Non-Covered Person” is any entity (i) of which the Covered Insider is an employee, member or partner, (ii) that engages in the management of investment in securities for investment funds in the
ordinary course of its business or is a managed fund of such person and (iii) that has confirmed to Roivant in writing that it has established its own policies and procedures for compliance with insider trading restrictions under applicable
securities laws. For the avoidance of doubt, a Non-Covered Person shall not be considered a Covered Insider subject to this Policy, and it shall not be a breach of this Policy for a Covered Insider to recommend investments or be involved in
the investment decision making of a Non-Covered Person in accordance with applicable securities laws, rules and regulations.
|
|
• |
Nondisclosure. Material
inside information must not be disclosed to anyone, except (i) to persons within the Company whose positions require them to know it or (ii) to persons outside the Company who are subject to a confidentiality obligation covering such
inside information and as required in connection with bona fide Company business. No employee or director should discuss material inside information in public places.
|
|
• |
Trading Window.
|
o |
Except as otherwise set forth in this Policy, trading in the securities of Roivant or of a Roivant Group Company by Covered Insiders is only permitted during the period (i) commencing one full trading day following an earnings release
(or other applicable filing with the SEC) with respect to the preceding fiscal period by Roivant or the relevant Roivant Group Company, as applicable, and (ii) ending at the close of trading on the last calendar day of the last month of the
then current fiscal quarter of Roivant or the relevant Roivant Group Company, as applicable (in each case, the “Window”).
|
|
o |
A notification will generally be provided to all Company personnel as to the opening and closing of the Window for both Roivant and each Roivant Group Company. However, all Covered Insiders are required to observe the restrictions set
forth herein with respect to any trading outside of the Window even in the absence of such a notification.
|
|
o |
No trading by Covered Insiders in the securities of Roivant or a Roivant Group Company is permitted outside of the Window except with the prior review and approval of the Principal Executive Officer or General Counsel; provided that, if
one of these individuals wishes to trade outside the Window, it shall be subject to prior review by the other.
|
|
o |
At times, the General Counsel may determine that it is appropriate not to permit trading even during the Window. The General Counsel is not obligated to provide an explanation for the limitation on trading and the unavailability of the
Window itself may constitute material inside information that should not be communicated.
|
|
o |
However, a Covered Insider who is subject to the provisions of the insider trading policy of a Roivant Group Company may trade in the securities of such Roivant Group Company in accordance with the provisions of that Roivant Group
Company’s insider trading policy, which will generally only permit transactions during that Roivant Group Company’s Window, even if those transactions occur outside of a Roivant Window. Any questions regarding whether such Roivant Group
Company is in an open trading window should be directed to the General Counsel prior to engaging in such trade.
|
|
• |
Trading in Roivant Securities.
|
|
• |
In addition to the Window requirements set out above, no Covered Insider may place a purchase or sale order, or recommend that another person place a purchase or sale order, in Roivant’s securities when he or she has knowledge of
material information concerning Roivant that has not been disclosed to the public.
|
|
• |
This restriction covers orders for purchases and sales of stock, convertible securities and other securities (e.g., bonds) and includes increasing or decreasing investment in Roivant securities through a retirement account.
|
|
• |
The exercise of employee stock options is not subject to this Policy. However, Roivant securities that were acquired upon exercise of a stock option will be treated like any other security and may only be sold, including as part
of a cashless or net exercise of stock options, by a Covered Insider in compliance with the Policy and the Window requirements, and while not in possession of material inside information.
|
|
• |
Any Covered Insider who possesses material inside information should wait until one full trading day has elapsed since the information has been publicly released, in addition to observing any other limitations imposed by this Policy,
before trading.
|
|
• |
There is no exception to this Policy, even for hardship to the Covered Insider or based on the use of proceeds (such as making a mortgage payment or for an emergency expenditure).
|
|
• |
Trading in Securities of a Roivant Group Company.
|
|
• |
In addition to the Window requirements set out above, no Covered Insider may place a purchase or sale order, or recommend that another person place a purchase or sale order, in securities of a Roivant Group Company when he or she has
knowledge of material information concerning such Roivant Group Company that has not been disclosed to the public.
|
|
• |
This restriction includes orders for purchases and sales of stock, convertible securities and other securities (e.g., bonds) and includes increasing or decreasing investment in securities of such Roivant Group Company through a
retirement account.
|
|
• |
The exercise of employee stock options is not subject to this Policy. However, securities of a Roivant Group Company that were acquired upon exercise of a stock option will be treated like any other security, and may not be sold
by a Covered Insider who is in possession of material inside information.
|
|
• |
Any Covered Insider who possesses material inside information should wait until one full trading day has elapsed since the information has been publicly released, in addition to observing any other limitations imposed by this Policy,
before trading.
|
|
• |
There is no exception to this Policy, even for hardship to the Covered Insider or based on the use of proceeds (such as making a mortgage payment or for an emergency expenditure).
|
|
• |
Unless otherwise provided herein, this Policy does not apply to directors, officers and employees of a Roivant Group Company that has adopted an insider trading policy that (i) separately covers directors, officers and employees of such
Roivant Group Company, (ii) is no less restrictive than this Policy and (iii) has been approved by the General Counsel; provided that for directors, officers and employees of a Roivant Group
Company who are acting on behalf of Roivant, this Policy operates in conjunction with, and in addition to, the insider trading policy of such Roivant Group Company.
|
|
• |
Trading in Other Securities. No Covered Insider should place a purchase or sale order (including investment through a retirement account), or recommend that another person place a purchase or sale order, in the securities of another corporation if the
Covered Insider learns, in the course of his or her employment, confidential information about the other corporation that is likely to affect the value of those securities. For example, it would be a violation of the securities laws and
this Policy if the Covered Insider learned confidentially through Company sources that the Company intended to purchase assets from a company, and then placed an order to buy or sell stock in that other company because of the likely
increase or decrease in the value of its securities.
|
|
• |
Avoid Speculation.
Investing in Roivant’s securities provides an opportunity to share in the future growth of the Company. But investment in Roivant and sharing in its growth does not mean short range speculation based on fluctuations in the market. Such
activities put the personal gain of the employee or director in conflict with the best interests of Roivant and its stakeholders. Although this Policy does not mean that Covered Insiders may never sell shares, the Company encourages
Covered Insiders to avoid frequent trading in Roivant’s common shares. Speculating in Roivant securities is not part of the Company culture.
|
• |
Form 3, 4 and 5. Under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, insiders must file with the SEC public reports
disclosing their holdings of and transactions involving, the company’s equity securities. An initial report on Form 3 must be filed by every insider within 10 days after election or appointment disclosing all equity securities of such company beneficially owned by the reporting person on the date he became an insider. Even if no securities were owned on that date, the insider must file a report. Any subsequent change in
the nature or amount of beneficial ownership by the insider must be reported on Form 4 and filed by the end of the second business day following the date of the transaction (including reporting the donation of Roivant equity securities).
Certain exempt transactions may be reported on Form 5 within 45 days after the end of the fiscal year. The fact that an insider’s transactions during the month resulted in no net change, or the fact that no securities were owned after the
transactions were completed, does not provide a basis for failing to report.
|
|
• |
Schedule 13D and 13G. Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act requires the filing of a statement on Schedule
13D (or on Schedule 13G, in certain limited circumstances) by any person or group which acquires beneficial ownership of more than five percent of a class of equity securities registered under the Exchange Act. The threshold for reporting
is met if the stock owned, when coupled with the amount of stock subject to options exercisable within 60 days, exceeds the five percent limit.
|
|
• |
Form 144. As described above under the discussion of Rule 144, an affiliate seller relying on Rule 144
must file a notice of proposed sale with the SEC at the time the order to sell is placed with the broker unless the amount to be sold during any three-month period neither exceeds 5,000 shares nor involves sale proceeds greater than
$50,000.
|
|
• |
for Roivant directors and executive officers only—the later of (a) 90 days following the date a Trading Plan is adopted or modified and (b) two business days following the filing by Roivant of a Form 10-K or Form 10-Q covering the fiscal
quarter in which the Trading Plan was adopted or modified, but in no event later than 120 days following the date a Trading Plan is adopted or modified; and
|
|
• |
for all other Company personnel—at least 30 days following the date a Trading Plan is adopted or modified.
