Based on such strategic portfolio assessments, certain programs that do not meet its threshold for further development and commercialization could be discontinued.
In October 2025, we announced our plan to pursue options to divest ROCTAVIAN, including exploring out-licensing opportunities. We plan to continue to make ROCTAVIAN commercially available in the U.S., Italy and Germany until next steps are finalized. We will continue to provide support and monitorin…
In September 2025, at the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) Annual Meeting, we shared new data demonstrating improved spinal morphology – one of the factors that contributes to spinal stenosis, a leading cause of morbidity in achondroplasia – following treatment with VOXZOGO in …
In September 2025, we presented new data from the PALYNZIQ Phase 3 PEGASUS study in 12 to 17 year-olds demonstrating statistically significant blood phenylalanine (Phe) lowering compared to diet alone.

Our competitors may develop, manufacture and market products that are more effective or less expensive than ours. They may also obtain regulatory approvals for their products faster than we can obtain them (including those products with orphan drug designation, which may prevent us from marketing ou…
For example, we faced significant uncertainty as to whether gene therapy would gain the acceptance of the public or the medical community. In October 2025, we announced our plan to pursue options to divest ROCTAVIAN, including exploring out-licensing opportunities. Subsequently in December 2025, we …
*We may not realize the anticipated benefits from the Amicus Acquisition or accurately forecast the future performance of the combined company.
The success of the Amicus Acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from successfully combining our and Amicus’ businesses. We plan on devoting substantial management attention and resources to integrating our and Amicus’ businesses so that we can fully rea…
integration process may be disruptive to our and Amicus’ businesses, and, if implemented ineffectively, could restrict realization of the expected benefits of the Amicus Acquisition.

With respect to VOXZOGO, other companies are developing, and may in the future develop, products for treatment for achondroplasia that, if approved, could potentially compete with VOXZOGO even during the period of orphan drug e…
We also face uncertainty as to whether gene therapy will gain the acceptance of the public or the medical community. The commercial success of ROCTAVIAN will depend, in part, on the acceptance of physicians, patients and third-party payers of gene therapy products in general, and our product in part…
Activist investor actions threatened or commenced against us have and could in the future cause us to incur substantial costs, divert management's attention and resources, cause uncertainty about the strategic direction of our business and adversely affect our business, financial position and result…
We have been, and may in the future be, subject to activities initiated by activist investors. For example, in December 2023, we entered into a Cooperation Agreement with Elliott Investment Management L.P., Elliott Associates, L.P. and Elliott International, L.P., which expired in December 2024 purs…

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
