Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate sensitivity, which is impacted by changes to the general level of U.S. interest rates, particularly because of our investments in U.S. government-backed securities, corporate debt securities and commercial paper and because our cash equivalents ar…
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had no debt outstanding, and therefore we are not subject to interest rate risk related to debt.
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency for MapLight Australia Pty. Ltd., our wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia, is also the U.S. dollar.

Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor and clinical trial costs. We believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Our business is subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before making a decision to invest in our common stock. These risks are more fully described in this "Risk Factors" section, including the following:
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company with a limited operating history and no history of commercializing products, which may make it difficult to evaluate our approach to the discovery and development of product candidates and the prospects for our future viability.
We have incurred substantial losses since our inception. We anticipate incurring substantial and increasing losses for the foreseeable future and may never achieve or maintain profitability.
We will require substantial additional financing to achieve our goals, and failure to obtain additional capital when needed or on acceptable terms, could cause us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts.
If we are unable to successfully identify, develop and commercialize any product candidates or experience significant delays in doing so, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects will be materially and adversely affected.
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.
