[10-Q] Rani Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report
Rani Therapeutics (RANI) filed its Q3 2025 10‑Q, reporting lower operating expenses and a narrower quarterly loss. Q3 operating expenses were $7.3 million versus $11.8 million a year ago, driving a net loss of $7.9 million compared to $12.7 million in Q3 2024. Year to date, the company recorded contract revenue of $172,000 and a net loss of $31.9 million.
Liquidity remained tight at quarter‑end with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $4.6 million, total assets of $10.1 million, and current debt of $13.5 million. Stockholders’ equity stood at a deficit of $12.0 million. Management notes that October 2025 financing events, a Chugai license and collaboration upfront, Series D warrant exercises, and a lender debt conversion alleviated substantial doubt about going concern for the next 12 months.
During 2025, Rani raised funds via a July securities purchase agreement ($3.0 million gross) and $3.9 million in cash from warrant exercises tied to a May letter agreement, issuing 13,160,172 Series D warrants at a $0.65 exercise price. As of October 31, 2025, Rani had 97,541,221 Class A shares and 23,970,359 Class B shares outstanding.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2025. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, or otherwise.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and you are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

RANI THERAPEUTICS HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes to THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Organization and Nature of Business
Description of Business
Rani Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. (“Rani Holdings”, and together with its consolidated subsidiary, the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biotherapeutics company focusing on advancing technologies to enable the administration of biologics and drugs orally, to provide patients, physicians, and healthcare systems with a convenient alternative to painful injections. The Company’s technology comprises a drug-agnostic oral delivery platform, the RaniPill capsule, which is designed to deliver a wide variety of drug substances, including antibodies, proteins, peptides, and oligonucleotides. The Company is advancing a portfolio of oral therapeutics using the RaniPill capsule. The Company is headquartered in San Jose, California and operates in one segment.
Organizational Transactions
Rani Holdings was formed as a Delaware corporation in April 2021 for the purpose of facilitating an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Class A common stock. In connection with the IPO, the Company effected a series of organizational transactions (the “Organizational Transactions”), which, together with the IPO, were completed in August 2021, that resulted in the Company becoming the ultimate parent company of Rani Therapeutics, LLC (“Rani LLC”). The Company operates its business through Rani LLC.
As part of the Organizational Transactions, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with certain individuals and entities that continued to hold economic nonvoting Class A units of Rani LLC (“Class A Units”), collectively referred to herein as the “Continuing LLC Owners”. The Continuing LLC Owners are entitled to exchange, subject to the terms of the Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Rani LLC (the “Rani LLC Agreement”), the Class A Units they hold in Rani LLC, together with the shares they hold of the Company Class B common stock (together referred to as a "Paired Interest"), in return for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis provided that, at the Company’s election, the Company has the ability to effect a direct exchange of such Class A common stock or make a cash payment equal to a volume weighted average market price of one share of Class A common stock for each Paired Interest redeemed. Any shares of Class B common stock will be canceled on a one-for-one basis if, at the election of the Continuing LLC Owners, the Company redeems or exchanges such Paired Interest pursuant to the terms of the Rani LLC Agreement. As of September 30, 2025, certain individuals who continue to own interests in Rani LLC but do not hold shares of the Company’s Class B common stock (“non-corresponding Class A Units”) have the ability to exchange their non-corresponding Class A Units of Rani LLC for
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has incurred recurring losses since its inception, including net losses of $
The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future as it continues to develop the RaniPill capsule. The Company expects to finance its future operations with its existing cash and through strategic financing opportunities that could include, but are not limited to, future offerings of its equity, collaboration or licensing agreements, or the incurrence of debt. However, there is no guarantee that any of these strategic or financing opportunities will be executed or realized on favorable terms, if at all.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
The Company operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Rani LLC and, through Rani LLC conducts its business. Because the Company manages and operates the business and controls the strategic decisions and day-to-day operations of Rani LLC and also has a substantial financial interest in Rani LLC, the Company consolidates the financial results of Rani LLC, and a portion of its net loss is allocated to the non-controlling interests in Rani LLC held by the Continuing LLC Owners. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to Form 10-Q of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly state the financial position and the results of the Company's operations and cash flows for interim periods in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future period.
The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2024 consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on its historical experience and also on assumptions that we believe are reasonable; however, actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
A description of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in the audited consolidated financial statements within its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Except as noted below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents reported as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet which, in aggregate, represents the amount reported in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced annual disclosures regarding the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and may be adopted on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 provides disaggregated information about certain income statement costs and expenses. The guidance is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

All marketable securities are classified as short-term. The Company regularly reviews its available-for-sale marketable securities in an unrealized loss position and evaluates the current expected credit loss by considering factors such as historical experience, market data, issuer-specific factors, and current economic conditions. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate difference between the amortized cost and fair value of each security in an unrealized loss position was de minimis. Since any provision for expected credit losses for a security held is limited to the amount the fair value is less than its amortized cost, no allowance for expected credit loss was deemed necessary at September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, interest income receivable recorded as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet was de minimis.

6. Evaluation and Collaborative Arrangements
Evaluation Arrangement
In August 2024, the Company entered into a contract with Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Chugai") to conduct evaluation services of certain Chugai compounds for oral delivery using the RaniPill HC, which was concluded to be a single performance obligation with an enforceable right to payment. Chugai paid the Company an up-front payment of $
14
aggregate total of $
ProGen Co., Ltd.
In June 2024, the Company and ProGen Co., Ltd. (“ProGen”) entered into a Collaboration Agreement (the “Collaboration Agreement”). Under the Collaboration Agreement, the Company and ProGen will collaborate to manufacture, develop, seek regulatory approvals for and, if approved, commercialize a product (the “Product”) combining ProGen’s GLP-1/GLP-2 dual agonist compound, PG-102, and the RaniPill HC oral delivery device (the “Device”) in the field of weight management (including without limitation obesity, weight reduction and weight maintenance) in humans (the “Collaboration”).
Under the Collaboration Agreement, development costs, as well as operating profits and losses from the commercialization of the Product, will be equally shared by the Company and ProGen. The Company and ProGen each granted to the other party an exclusive right and license (except with respect to the other party’s affiliates and sublicensees) to certain intellectual property to develop the Product for weight management and an exclusive right and license to seek regulatory approval for, and to use, sell, offer to sell, import and commercialize the Product in their assigned territories. The parties share responsibility for the development of RT-114 worldwide, with the Company leading such development for preclinical activities through Phase 1 clinical trials. After initiation of the first Phase 2 clinical trial, the Company will lead development and commercialization of the Product in the United States, Canada, Europe (including the United Kingdom) and Australia, and ProGen will lead development and commercialization in all other countries.
Each party has the right to opt-out of the Collaboration (“Opt-Out”) at any time upon prior written notice to the other party. Following an Opt-Out, the continuing party shall have sole right to develop, conduct regulatory activities for and commercialize the Product on a worldwide basis. The Opt-Out party shall share all development costs and operating profit (or loss) through the effective date of the Opt-Out, and all costs to complete the conduct of any clinical trials of Product that have been initiated prior to delivery of the Opt-Out notice, even if the costs are incurred or the trials are completed after the effective date of the Opt-Out. The continuing party shall pay to the Opt-Out party low single to mid-single digit royalties on net sales of the Product made after the Opt-Out date depending on when the Opt-Out occurs.
The Company determined that the Collaboration Agreement is not a contract with a customer and is therefore accounted for under ASC Topic 808. The Company evaluates the presentation of amounts due from ProGen based on the nature of each separate activity. Reimbursements from ProGen are recognized as contra-research and development expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations once earned and collectability is assured. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, reimbursement due from ProGen recorded as contra-research and development expense was de minimis.
7. Related Party Transactions
InCube Labs, LLC (“ICL”) is wholly-owned by the Company’s founder and Chairman and his family. The founder and Chairman is the father of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s Chief Scientific Officer is also the brother of the founder and Chairman and thus uncle of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
Service Agreements
In June 2021, Rani LLC entered into a service agreement with ICL effective retrospectively to January 1, 2021, and subsequently amended such agreement in March 2022 (as amended, the "Rani LLC-ICL Service Agreement"), pursuant to which Rani LLC and ICL agreed to provide personnel services to the other upon requests. Under the amendment in March 2022, Rani LLC had the right to occupy certain facilities leased by ICL in Milpitas, California and San Antonio, Texas (“Occupancy Services”) for general office, research and development, and light manufacturing. The Rani LLC-ICL Service Agreement has a twelve-month term and will automatically renew for successive twelve-month periods unless terminated. Except for the Occupancy Services, Rani LLC or ICL may terminate services under the Rani LLC-ICL Service Agreement upon 60 days' notice to the other party. The Rani LLC-ICL Service Agreement specifies the scope of services to be provided as well as the methods for determining the costs of services. Costs are billed or charged on a monthly basis by ICL or Rani LLC, respectively. The Occupancy Services for the facility in Milpitas, California expired in August 2024. The Occupancy Services for the facility in San Antonio, Texas terminated in June 2024.

In June 2021, the Company, through Rani LLC, entered into the Non-Exclusive License Agreement with ICL a related party, pursuant to which the Company granted ICL a non-exclusive, fully-paid license under specified patents that were assigned from ICL to the Company. Additionally, the Company agreed not to license these patents to a third party in a specific field outside the field of oral delivery of sensors, small molecule drugs or biologic drugs including, any peptide, antibody, protein, cell therapy, gene therapy or vaccine, if ICL can prove that it or its sublicensee has been in active development of a product covered by such patents in that specific field. ICL may grant sublicenses under this license to third parties only with the Company’s prior approval. The Non-Exclusive License Agreement will continue in perpetuity unless earlier terminated.
Tax Receivable Agreement
Certain parties to the tax receivable agreement (“TRA”), entered into in August 2021 pursuant to the IPO and Organizational Transactions are related parties of the Company. The TRA provides that the Company pay to ICL and the other Continuing LLC Owners 85% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, it is deemed to realize from exchanges of Paired Interests. During each of the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, these parties to the TRA exchanged

Rani LLC Agreement
The Company operates its business through Rani LLC. In connection with the IPO, the Company and the Continuing LLC Owners, including ICL and its affiliates, entered into the Rani LLC Agreement. The governance of Rani LLC, and the rights and obligations of the holders of LLC Interests, are set forth in the Rani LLC Agreement. As Continuing LLC Owners, ICL and its affiliates are entitled to exchange, subject to the terms of the Rani LLC Agreement, Paired Interests for Class A common stock of the Company; provided that, at the Company’s election, the Company may effect a direct exchange of such Class A common stock or make a cash payment equal to a volume weighted average market price of one share of Class A common stock for each Paired Interest redeemed.

The Company pays for the use of its office, laboratory and manufacturing facility in San Jose, California as part of the RMS-ICL Service Agreement. In April 2022, RMS assigned the RMS-ICL Service Agreement to Rani LLC. In December 2022, RMS was dissolved. In March 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to increase the Occupancy Services from
Under the Rani LLC-ICL Service Agreement amended in March 2022, Rani LLC had a right to occupy certain facilities leased by ICL in Milpitas, California and San Antonio, Texas for general office, research and development, and light manufacturing. The Rani LLC-ICL Service Agreement has a twelve-month term and will automatically renew for a successive twelve-month periods unless terminated. The Company accounted for its Occupancy Services in San Antonio, Texas as a short-term lease. In December 2023, the Company provided to ICL notice of termination of the Occupancy Services in San Antonio, which took effect in June 2024. In March 2024, the Company extended the Occupancy Services for the facility in Milpitas, California for an additional six-month term through August 2024 and increased the payment for such Occupancy Services during the extension period. The Company accounted for the March 2024 extension for its Occupancy Services in Milpitas, California as a short-term lease. The Occupancy Services for the facility in Milpitas, California expired in August 2024.
The Company's leases are accounted for as operating leases and require certain fixed payments of real estate taxes and insurance in addition to future minimum lease payments, and certain variable payments of common area maintenance costs and building utilities. Variable lease payments are expensed in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. These variable lease costs are payments that vary in amount beyond the commencement date, for reasons other than passage of time. Variable lease payments are excluded from the total operating lease expense and are immaterial for the periods presented.

Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation as the Company operates in an industry susceptible to patent legal claims. The Company accounts for estimated losses with respect to legal proceedings and claims when such losses are probable and estimable.

Tax Receivable Agreement
The Company is party to a TRA with certain of the Continuing LLC Owners. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has not recorded a liability under the TRA related to the income tax benefits originating from the exchanges of Paired Interest or non-corresponding Class A Units of Rani LLC as it is not probable that the Company will realize such tax benefits. To the extent the Company is able to realize the income tax benefits associated with the exchanges of Paired Interest or non-corresponding Class A Units of Rani LLC subject to the TRA, the TRA payable would range from
The amounts payable under the TRA will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the amount, character, and timing of the taxable income of the Company in the future. Should the Company determine that the payment of the TRA liability becomes probable at a future date based on new information, any changes will be recorded on the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss at that time.

Recent Legislation
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, which enacts significant changes to U.S. tax and related laws. Some of the provisions of the new tax law affecting corporations include but are not limited to current deduction of domestic research expenses, increasing the limit of the deduction of interest expense deduction to thirty percent of EBITDA, and one hundred percent bonus depreciation on eligible property acquired after January 19, 2025. The OBBBA has varying effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others with multiple effective dates through 2027. We have evaluated the potential impact of this legislation and expect it to result primarily in a timing difference, with no material impact on our effective tax rate.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this document, includes forward looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Please also see the section titled “Forward Looking Statements.”
The following discussion contains references to calendar year 2024 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which represents the condensed consolidated financial results of Rani Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiary, Rani Therapeutics, LLC (“Rani LLC”) for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Rani” and similar references refers to the Company and its consolidated subsidiary.
Overview
We are a clinical stage biotherapeutics company focusing on advancing technologies to enable the administration of biologics and drugs orally, to provide patients, physicians, and healthcare systems with a convenient alternative to painful injections. We are advancing a portfolio of oral therapeutics using our proprietary delivery technology and we are actively pursuing partnering the technology with third party biopharmaceutical companies for the oral delivery of their biologics and drugs.
Our technology comprises a drug-agnostic oral delivery platform, the RaniPill capsule, which is designed to deliver a wide variety of drug substances, including antibodies, proteins, peptides, and oligonucleotides. We have two configurations of the platform – the RaniPill GO and the RaniPill HC. The RaniPill GO is designed to deliver up to a 3 mg dose of drug in microtablet form with high bioavailability. We have completed three Phase 1 clinical trials using the RaniPill GO. We are also developing a high-capacity version of the RaniPill capsule known as the RaniPill HC, which is intended to enable delivery of drug payloads up to 200µL in liquid form with high bioavailability. We have tested preclinically the RaniPill HC with multiple therapeutics, including antibodies and a peptide. We intend to initiate clinical testing of the RaniPill HC by the end of 2025.
We believe the RaniPill capsule technology could enable us to deliver most biologics currently on the market with convenient, oral dosing.
We do not have any products approved for sale, and we have not yet generated any revenue from sales of a commercial product. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability, if ever, will depend on the successful development of the RaniPill capsule, which we expect will take a number of years. Given our stage of development, we have not yet established a commercial organization or distribution capabilities, and we have no experience as a company in marketing drugs or a drug-delivery platform. When, and if, any of our product candidates are approved for commercialization, we plan to develop a commercialization infrastructure or engage commercial sales organizations or distributors for those products in the United States, Europe, Asia, and potentially in certain other key markets. We may also rely on partnerships to provide commercialization infrastructure, including sales, marketing, and commercial distribution.
As is common with biotechnology companies, we rely on third-party suppliers for the supply of raw materials and active pharmaceutical ingredients ("APIs") and drug substances required for the production of our product candidates. In addition, we work with third parties to manufacture and develop biologics and drugs for inclusion in the RaniPill capsule. Design work, prototyping and pilot manufacturing are performed in house, and we have utilized third-party engineering firms to assist with the design of manufacturing lines that support our supply of the RaniPill capsule. Certain of our suppliers of components and materials are single source suppliers. We believe our vertically integrated manufacturing strategy will offer significant advantages, including rapid product iteration, control over our product quality and the ability to rapidly scale our manufacturing capacity. This capability also allows us to develop future generations of products while maintaining the confidentiality of our intellectual property. Our vertically integrated manufacturing strategy will result in material future capital outlays and fixed costs related to constructing and operating a manufacturing facility. We have invested and plan to continue to invest in automated manufacturing production lines for the RaniPill
25
capsule. Those assets deemed to have an alternative future use have been capitalized as property and equipment while those projects related to our assets determined to not have an alternative future use have been expensed as research and development costs.
Financial Update
In May 2025, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with an existing institutional investor (the “Equity Investor”) pursuant to which the Equity Investor exercised for cash all outstanding Series B and Series C warrants held by such Equity Investor at a reduced exercise price of $0.65 per share, for net proceeds of $3.9 million, in consideration for the issuance of a new Series D common stock warrant (the “Series D Warrant”) to purchase an aggregate of 13,160,172 shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Common Stock”).
In July 2025, we entered into the July 2025 Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, relating to the issuance and sale of 4,354,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,146,000 shares of Class A common stock (the “Offering”). The pre-funded warrants were exercisable immediately following the closing date of the Offering and have an unlimited term and an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The Offering price was $0.40 per share of Class A common stock, and $0.3999 per pre-funded warrant for total gross proceeds of $3.0 million. After the closing the Offering, the institutional investor fully exercised all pre-funded warrants.
As of September 30, 2025, our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents totaled $4.6 million. In October 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which we sold in the Private Placement (i) 42,633,337 shares of our Class A Common Stock, (ii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 125,000,004 shares of Class A Common Stock or pre-funded warrants (the “Common Warrants”), and (iii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 82,366,667 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) for the aggregate purchase price of approximately $60.3 million (including conversion of the Loan amount of $6.0 million described below).
The Common Warrants will become exercisable following the effective date of stockholder approval and have a term of five years following the initial exercise date. The Common Warrants have an exercise price of $0.48 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately, have an unlimited term and an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. We also agreed to seek approval from our stockholders for the issuance of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Common Warrants within 75 days following the closing date of the Private Placement.
In October 2025, we entered into the LSA Amendment with the Lender, pursuant to which the Lender, among other things, converted $6.0 million of outstanding Loans into 12,500,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof) and Common Warrants to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof), on the same terms as other investors in the Private Placement.
We expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future, and our net losses may fluctuate significantly from period to period, depending on the timing of and expenditures on our planned research and development activities. We will need to raise substantial additional funds in the future in order to complete the development of the RaniPill platform, to complete the clinical development of our product candidates and seek regulatory approval thereof, to expand our manufacturing capabilities, to further develop the RaniPill HC device and to commercialize any of our product candidates. We may seek to raise capital through equity offerings or debt financings, collaboration agreements, strategic transactions or other arrangements with other companies, or through other sources of financing. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of additional debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. We may not be able to raise additional financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Preclinical Update
In May 2025, we announced that we have entered a Research Collaboration in August 2024 for two molecules with undisclosed targets provided by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. The full analysis confirms the RaniPill® delivery demonstrated comparable bioavailability to the subcutaneous route of delivery for both molecules studied.
26
In March 2025, we announced preclinical data demonstrating bioequivalence of RT-114, a bispecific GLP-1/GLP-2 receptor agonist (PG-102) delivered orally via the RaniPill capsule (“RT-114”), to subcutaneously administered PG-102. RT-114 yielded a relative bioavailability of 111% compared to PG-102 delivered subcutaneously with comparable pharmacokinetic profiles and weight loss. RT-114 was well tolerated and was excreted without sequelae in all subjects. Average peak weight loss was the same in both groups with greater variability with subcutaneous dosing (6.7% ± 0.5% for RT-114 and 6.7% ± 2.2% for subcutaneous PG-102). In July 2025, the same set of data was presented at the ENDO conference in San Francisco, California. Collectively, these compelling nonclinical results provide a robust rationale for initiating clinical development of RT-114 as a first-in-class oral anti-obesity therapy. We plan to initiate a Phase 1 trial for RT-114 by the end of 2025. The upcoming trial will evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics, laying the groundwork for future development phases.
In February 2025, we announced preclinical data demonstrating successful oral delivery of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (“GLP-1”) agonist semaglutide via the RaniPill HC (“RT-116”). In the study, RT-116 demonstrated comparable bioavailability, pharmacokinetics and weight loss to subcutaneous (“SC”) administration of semaglutide. Further, RT-116 was well tolerated with no serious adverse events.
Collaboration and License Agreement
In October 2025, we entered into the Collaboration and License Agreement with Chugai to develop, manufacture, seek regulatory approvals for and, if approved, commercialize the Product combining Chugai’s Compound, which is in development for hemophilia, and the Device for use in humans. Under the Collaboration and License Agreement, we are entitled to receive a $10.0 million upfront payment within 30 days of Chugai receiving an invoice for the upfront payment after closing. We would be eligible to receive up to $18.0 million in technology transfer milestones, up to $57.0 million in development milestones, up to $100.0 million in a series of sales-based milestones, contingent upon approval and the commercial success of the product, and single digit royalties on net sales upon approval and successful commercialization of the Product.
In accordance with a development plan, the parties will share responsibility for the development of the Product worldwide, with Chugai leading and having sole responsibility for clinical, regulatory, and commercial activities. The parties will allocate preclinical, Chemistry Manufacturing and Controls, and manufacturing and supply activities between each other, with Chugai being primarily responsible for development of the Compound and us being primarily responsible for development of the Device and Product.
Under the Collaboration and License Agreement, the Company granted Chugai an exclusive, worldwide right and license to certain intellectual property owned by us to research, develop, register, manufacture, use, sell, offer to sell, import, export, commercialize, and market the Product. Chugai granted us a non-exclusive, worldwide right and license to certain intellectual property owned by Chugai to manufacture and supply the Device and Product to Chugai and to perform its activities under the Collaboration and License Agreement. Both parties have the right to sublicense subject to certain conditions.
In addition, Chugai has a one-time limited option to replace the Compound with a different compound subject to certain terms and conditions, a time-limited right of first refusal with respect to a select group of additional targets, and a time-limited option to extend its rights to up to five of the additional drug targets under similar deal terms as the Collaboration and License Agreement.

The decrease of $3.0 million in research and development expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily attributed a $2.4 million reduction in compensation costs resulting from lower headcount, a $0.4 million decrease in expenses related to facilities, materials and supplies, and a $0.2 million decrease in third-party services. These reductions reflect cost containment efforts, including the temporary pause of certain R&D programs. We anticipate the R&D expenses to increase in future periods as we resume these programs and continue to invest in product development.
General and Administrative Expenses
The decrease of $1.6 million in general and administrative expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily attributed to lower compensation costs of $1.3 million and a reduction of $0.3 million in third-party services.
Other Income (Expense), Net
The decrease of $0.3 million in other income (expense), net, in the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily attributed to a decrease in interest income of $0.3 million from our investments, offset by a decrease in interest expenses of $0.6 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception, including net loss of $31.9 million for nine months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $122.3 million and for nine months ended September 30, 2025, had negative cash flows from operations of $19.0 million. As of September 30, 2025, our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash equivalents totaled $4.6 million. We expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future, and our net losses may fluctuate significantly from period to period, depending on the timing of and expenditures on our planned research and development activities.
As disclosed in more detail below, we have entered into various financing agreements and a license and collaboration agreement in October 2025. We believe that the proceeds from the closing of the Private Placement, the upfront payment from the Collaboration and License Agreement with Chugai, the proceeds received from Series D Warrant exercises, and the impact of the Debt Conversion provide sufficient capital resources to meet our operating obligations for at least twelve months from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. Our management believes that the going concern doubt in our 2024 10-K and previous quarterly reports on Form 10-Q has been alleviated.
Financial Update
In October 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which we sold in the Private Placement (i) 42,633,337 shares of our Class A Common Stock, (ii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 125,000,004 shares of Class A Common Stock or pre-funded warrants (the “Common Warrants”) and (iii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 82,366,667 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), for the aggregate purchase price of approximately $60.3 million (including conversion of the Loan amount of $6.0 million described below).
The Common Warrants will become exercisable following the effective date of stockholder approval and have a term of five years following the initial exercise date. The Common Warrants have an exercise price of $0.48 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable immediately, have an unlimited term and an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. We also agreed to seek approval from our stockholders for the issuance of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Common Warrants within 75 days following the closing date of the Private Placement
In October 2025, we entered into the LSA Amendment with the Lender, pursuant to which the Lender, among other things, converted $6.0 million of outstanding Loans into 12,500,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof) and Common Warrants to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof), on the same terms as other investors in the Private Placement.
In October 2025, we entered into the Collaboration and License Agreement with Chugai to develop, manufacture, seek regulatory approvals for and, if approved, commercialize the Product combining Chugai’s Compound, which is in development for hemophilia, and the Device for use in humans. Under the Collaboration and License Agreement, the Company will receive a $10.0 million upfront payment within 30 days of Chugai receiving an invoice for the upfront payment after closing. We are eligible to receive up to $18.0 million in technology transfer milestones, up to $57.0 million in development milestones, up to $100.0 million in a series of sales-based milestones, contingent upon approval and the commercial success of the product, and single digit royalties on net sales, contingent on approval and commercialization of the Product.
In July 2025, we entered into the July Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, relating to the issuance and sale of 4,354,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,146,000 shares of Class A common stock. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable immediately following the closing date of the Offering and have an unlimited term and an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. The Offering price was $0.40 per share of Class A common stock and $0.3999 per pre-funded warrant for total gross proceeds of $3.0 million. After closing of the Offering, the institutional investor fully exercised all pre-funded warrants.
30
In May 2025, we entered into the Letter Agreement with an existing institutional investor (the “Equity Investor”) pursuant to which the Investor exercised for cash all outstanding Series B and Series C warrants at a reduced exercise price of $0.65 per share in consideration for the Company’s issuance of a the Series D Warrant to purchase an aggregate of 13,160,172 shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share with the exercise price of $0.65 per share. In October 2025, the Equity Investor exercised 6,967,150 shares of Series D Warrants, resulting in 6,193,022 shares of Series D Warrants remained outstanding. The Company received cash proceeds of $4.5 million as a result of the exercise.
In August 2022, we entered into the Loan Agreement with the Lender. The Loan Agreement provides for term loans (the “Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount up to $45.0 million. A Loan of $30.0 million was committed at closing, with $15.0 million funded immediately and $15.0 million available to be drawn between October 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022, which was drawn in December 2022. The remaining $15.0 million of Loans was uncommitted and subject to certain conditions and is no longer available under the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement also contains various covenants and restrictive provisions. There have been no material adverse events in connection with the Loan Agreement. The Loan principal is repayable in equal monthly installments which began in September 2024. As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Loan Agreement.

See Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
Future Funding Requirements
We will need to raise substantial additional funds in the future in order to complete the development of the RaniPill platform, to complete the clinical development of our product candidates and seek regulatory approval thereof, to expand our manufacturing capabilities, to further develop the RaniPill technology and to commercialize any of our product candidates.
To date, we have not generated any commercial product revenue. We do not expect to generate any commercial product revenue unless and until we obtain regulatory approval and commercialize any of our commercial product candidates, and we do not know when, or if at all, that will occur. We will continue to require additional capital to develop our product candidates and fund operations for the foreseeable future. Our primary uses of cash are to fund our operations, which consist primarily of research and development expenses related to our programs, manufacturing automation and scaleup, and general and administrative expenses. We expect our expenses to continue to increase in connection with our ongoing activities as we continue to advance the RaniPill technology and our product candidates.
We may seek to raise capital through equity offerings or debt financings, which may include collaboration agreements, or other arrangements with other companies, or through other sources of financing. Adequate additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed could have a negative impact on our consolidated financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategies. We anticipate that we will need to raise substantial additional capital, the requirements of which will depend on many factors, including:
31
If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we may be subject to covenants that restrict our operations including limitations on our ability to incur liens or additional debt, pay dividends, make certain investments, and engage in certain merger, consolidation, or asset sale transactions. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms that are not favorable to us. If we raise funds through collaborations, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs, product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may be required to delay, reduce, or terminate some or all of our development programs and clinical trials or delay investments in our manufacturing scale-up and automation. In addition, our ability to raise additional capital may be adversely impacted by potential worsening global economic conditions and the recent disruptions to and volatility in the credit and financial markets.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $19.0 million, which was primarily attributable to a net loss of $31.9 million and net accretion and amortization of investments in marketable securities of $0.2 million, partially offset by stock-based compensation expense of $9.6 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $0.7 million and $0.2 million in warrant issuance costs and expenses. Additionally, there was an increase in accounts payable of $1.1 million, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $0.6 million and a decrease in contract asset of $0.4 million and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $26.8 million, which was primarily attributable to a net loss of $40.9 million and net accretion and amortization of investments in marketable securities of $0.9 million, partially offset by stock-based compensation expense of $12.0 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $0.8 million. Additionally, there was an increase in accounts payable of $0.9 million, an increase in deferred revenue of $0.6 million and an increase of $0.3 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Investing Activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash provided by investing activities was $23.9 million, which primarily consisted of $26.8 million in proceeds from maturities of marketable securities partially offset by $2.7 million in purchases of marketable securities and $0.1 million in purchases of property and equipment.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by investing activities was $17.3 million, which primarily consisted of $57.3 million in proceeds from maturities of marketable securities partially offset by $39.7 million in purchases of marketable securities and $0.2 million in purchases of property and equipment.
Financing Activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash used in financing activities was $4.6 million, which primarily consisted of repayment of debt of $11.3 million offset by the exercise of warrants of $3.9 million, and the issuance of common stock and pre-funded warrants of $2.8 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $8.0 million, which primarily consisted of net proceeds of $8.9 million from the July Offering and $0.2 million from the issuance of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan, partially offset by $1.3 million repayment of debt.
Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments
In October 2025, we entered into the LSA Amendment with the Lender, pursuant to which the Lender, among other things, converted $6.0 million of outstanding Loans into 12,500,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof) and Common Warrants to purchase up to 12,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (or Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu thereof), on the same terms as the purchasers in the Private Placement (see Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).
In October 2025, we entered into the Collaboration and License Agreement with Chugai to develop, manufacture, seek regulatory approvals for and, if approved, commercialize the Product combining Chugai’s Compound, which is in development for hemophilia, and the Device for use in humans. Under the Collaboration and License Agreement, we are entitled to receive $10.0 million upfront within 30 days of Chugai receiving an invoice for the upfront payment after closing. We are eligible to receive up to $18.0 million in technology transfer milestones, up to $57.0 million in development milestones, up to $100.0 million in a series of sales-based milestones, contingent upon approval and the commercial success of the product, and single digit royalties on net sales, contingent on approval and commercialization of the Product (see Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).
Other than those described above, management believes that there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and other commitments compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
33
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require our management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on our own historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable after taking account of our circumstances and expectations for the future based on available information. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected.
We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. There are items within our condensed consolidated financial statements that require estimation but are not deemed critical, as defined above.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
None.
Other Information
JOBS Act Accounting Election
We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act permits an emerging growth company like us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We are electing to use this extended transition period and we will therefore comply with new or revised accounting standards on the earlier of (i) when they apply to private companies; or (ii) when we lose our emerging growth company status. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable with companies that comply with public company effective dates for accounting standards. We also rely on other exemptions provided by the JOBS Act, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act unless we cease to be an emerging growth company.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (1) December 31, 2026 (the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the closing of our IPO), (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, (3) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which would occur if the market value of our Class A common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700.0 million as of the last business day of the second fiscal quarter of such year or (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the three months ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost–effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings. We are not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Other than described below, management believes that there have been no significant changes to the risk factors associated with our business as compared to those disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Our collaboration with Chugai may not be successful, and we may not realize the anticipated benefits of the Collaboration and License Agreement.
In October 2025, we entered into the Collaboration and License Agreement with Chugai to develop, manufacture, seek regulatory approvals for and, if approved, commercialize the Product combining Chugai’s Compound, which is in development for hemophilia, and the Device for use in humans. Under the Collaboration and License Agreement, we are entitled to receive an upfront payment of $10.0 million within 30 days of Chugai receiving an invoice for the upfront payment after closing. We are eligible to receive up to $18.0 million in technology transfer milestones, up to $57.0 million in development milestones, up to $100.0 million in sales-based milestones, contingent upon approval and the commercial success of the product, and single-digit royalties on net sales, contingent on approval and commercialization of the Product. The success of this collaboration is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control.
Our ability to receive milestone or royalty payments depends on the achievement of specified technology transfer, development, regulatory, and commercial events, many of which depend on both parties' efforts and on the ultimate performance, approval and commercialization of the Product including the Compound and the Device. As a result, we may not receive any or all of the potential milestone or royalty payments contemplated by the Agreement.
Chugai has primary responsibility for preclinical and clinical development, regulatory filings, and commercialization of the Product, while we are responsible for development of the device and for certain manufacturing and supply activities. If Chugai fails to devote sufficient resources to the collaboration or otherwise determines to reprioritize or discontinue development of the Product, our ability to advance the program would be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, the development of the Product is subject to significant scientific, regulatory, and commercial risks inherent in drug and combination product development. There can be no assurance that the Product will successfully complete preclinical or clinical studies, obtain regulatory approval, or achieve commercial success, if approved.
In addition, Chugai holds certain options and rights under the Agreement, including a one-time right to replace the compound, a right of first refusal for certain additional drug targets, and options to extend its rights to additional drug targets. The exercise of these rights could alter the scope or economics of the collaboration, or may not occur at all, which could affect the potential value of the arrangement to us. If the collaboration is significantly delayed or terminates early, whether due to breach, convenience, or other circumstances, we may be unable to continue development of the Product. Any of these events could materially harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We have in the past and may in the future fail to continue to meet the listing standards of Nasdaq, and as a result our common stock may be delisted, which could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity of our common stock.
Our Class A common stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Global Market. We are required to meet specified requirements to maintain our listing on The Nasdaq Global Market, including, among others, a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share of our class A common stock under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (“Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) and a minimum market value of listed securities (“MVLS”), of $50,000,000 under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) (the “MVLS Requirement”).
On June 20, 2025, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of Nasdaq (“Nasdaq Staff”) notifying us that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of our common stock had closed below $1.00 per share, and was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The notification received had no immediate effect on the listing of our
36
common stock on the Nasdaq. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, we had 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by having shares of our common stock maintain a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.
On May 1, 2025, we received a letter from the Nasdaq Staff notifying us that we were not in compliance with the MVLS Requirement (the “MVLS Notice”). The notification received had no immediate effect on the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq. In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we were granted 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. In order to do so, we must achieve and maintain an MVLS of at least $50,000,000 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.
On November 4, 2025, we received two letters from the Nasdaq Staff. The first letter from the Nasdaq Staff indicated that the closing bid price of our Class A common stock had been at $1.00 per share or greater for the last 10 consecutive business days, from October 21, 2025, to November 3, 2025, and accordingly, we have regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(a)(1). The second letter from the Nasdaq Staff indicated that the MVLS of our Class A common stock had been at a value of at least $50,000,000 for the last 10 consecutive business days, from October 17, 2025, to October 30, 2025, and accordingly, we had regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(A). There can be no assurance that we will continue to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, MVLS requirement, or any other Nasdaq requirements in the future.
In addition, we may be unable to meet other applicable Nasdaq listing requirements, including maintaining minimum levels of stockholders’ equity or market values of our common stock, in which case our common stock could be delisted. If our common stock were to be delisted, the liquidity of our common stock would be adversely affected, and the market price of our common stock could decrease.
International trade policies, including tariffs, sanctions and trade barriers may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We operate in a global economy, which includes utilizing third-party suppliers in several countries outside the United States, including suppliers of drug substance for our pipeline programs and suppliers of certain raw materials for the manufacture of the RaniPill® capsule. There is inherent risk, based on the complex relationships among the U.S. and the countries in which we conduct our business, that political, diplomatic, and national security factors can lead to global trade restrictions and changes in trade policies and export regulations that may adversely affect our business and operations. The current international trade and regulatory environment is subject to significant ongoing uncertainty. The U.S. government has recently announced substantial new tariffs affecting a wide range of products and jurisdictions and has indicated an intention to continue developing new trade policies, including with respect to the pharmaceutical industry. In response, certain foreign governments have announced or implemented retaliatory tariffs and other protectionist measures. These developments have created a dynamic and unpredictable trade landscape, which may adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.
We manufacture the RaniPill® capsule in the United States. We are vertically integrated and manufacture many of the components used in the RaniPill® capsule. We source raw materials for our components and manufacturing from a variety of suppliers. Currently, nearly all of the principal suppliers of our raw materials and externally-sourced components used to support our manufacturing come from suppliers located in the United States. The current principal supplier of one raw material is located in China. We obtain supply of the drug substances used for our pipeline programs from third parties. The drug substance for our RT-114 (bispecific GLP-1/GLP-2 receptor agonist) program is manufactured in Korea and China, and the drug substances for our RT-111 (ustekinumab biosimilar) and RT-105 (adalimumab biosimilar) programs are manufactured in Korea. The drug substance for our RT-102 (parathyroid hormone) and RT-110 programs is manufactured in the United States.
Current or future tariffs will result in increased research and development and manufacturing expenses, including with respect to increased costs associated with drug substances, raw materials, laboratory equipment and research materials and components. In addition, such tariffs will increase our supply chain complexity and could also potentially disrupt our existing supply chain. Trade restrictions affecting the import of materials necessary for clinical trials could result in delays to our development timelines. Increased development costs and extended development timelines could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to companies operating in regions with more favorable trade relationships and could reduce investor confidence, negatively impacting our ability to secure additional financing or collaborations on favorable terms or at all. In addition, as we advance toward commercialization in the future, tariffs and trade restrictions could hinder our ability to establish cost-effective production capabilities, negatively impacting our growth prospects.
The complexity of announced or future tariffs may also increase the risk that we or our collaborators or suppliers may be subject to civil or criminal enforcement actions in the United States or foreign jurisdictions related to compliance with trade regulations. Foreign governments may also adopt non-tariff measures, such as procurement preferences or informal disincentives to
37
engage with, purchase from or invest in U.S. entities, which may limit our ability to compete internationally and attract non-U.S. investment, employees, collaborators and suppliers. Foreign governments may also take other retaliatory actions against U.S. entities, such as decreased intellectual property protection, increased enforcement actions, or delays in regulatory approvals, which may result in heightened international legal and operational risks. In addition, the United States and other governments have imposed and may continue to impose additional sanctions, such as trade restrictions or trade barriers, which could restrict us from doing business directly or indirectly in or with certain countries or parties and may impose additional costs and complexity to our business.
Trade disputes, tariffs, restrictions and other political tensions between the United States and other countries may also exacerbate unfavorable macroeconomic conditions including inflationary pressures, foreign exchange volatility, financial market instability, and economic recessions or downturns. The ultimate impact of current or future tariffs and trade restrictions remains uncertain and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and prospects. While we actively monitor these risks, any prolonged economic downturn, escalation in trade tensions, or deterioration in international perception of U.S.-based companies could materially and adversely affect our business, ability to access the capital markets or other financing sources, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. In addition, tariffs and other trade developments have heightened and may continue to heighten the risks related to the other risk factors described in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
