We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on delivering a new class of innovative immunotherapies for patients with cancer and other incurable diseases. We believe immunotherapies are one of the forward pillars of medicine, and our mission is to advance humanity by engineering immunotherapies that are safer, more effective and more broadly accessible. Although Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cells (CAR-Ts) have shown benefits to date, they have primarily been constrained to existing biologic structures, which has limited their impact and opportunity. Our novel synthetic binding scaffold, the D-Domain, is designed to overcome the limitations of traditional CAR-Ts. Existing CAR-T therapy solutions, most of which use a biologic-based, single chain variable fragment (scFv) binding domain, tend to be difficult to manufacture, beneficial to a limited segment of patients, often result i…3 From its latest annual report

Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Arcellx, Inc. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 26, 2026: 72 risks under these headings, as written.3

  • Risks Related to the Proposed Transaction with Gilead
  • Risks Related to Our Limited Operating History, Financial Condition and Capital Requirements
  • Risks Related to Development of Our Product Candidates
  • Risks Related to Commercialization of Our Product Candidates
  • Risks Related to Government Regulation
  • Risks Related to Our Business
  • Risks Related to Reliance on Third Parties
  • Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property
  • Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock
  • There are uncertainties as to the timing of the Offer and the Merger, including the risk that the Offer or the Merger may not be completed in a timely manner or at all.
  • Our ability to complete the Merger is subject to certain closing conditions that could adversely affect us or cause the Merger to be abandoned.
  • The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of the Company or could result in a competing acquisition proposal being at a lower price than it might otherwise be.
The other 68 risks
  • The announcement or pendency of the Transactions may result in disruptions to our business, divert management’s attention and/or disrupt our relationships with third parties and employees, any of which could negatively impact our operating results and ongoing business.
  • Stockholder litigation in connection with the Transactions may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability.
  • Risks Related to Our Limited Operating History, Financial Condition, and Capital Requirements
  • We have a limited operating history and have incurred significant losses since our inception, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future, which makes it difficult to assess our future viability.
  • We will need to obtain substantial additional funding as we continue to advance anito-cel through clinical development, the regulatory approval process and, if approved, commercial launch activities; initiate or continue to advance our ARC-SparX product candidates; and continue to discover and develop additional product candidates.
  • We have no products approved for commercial sale and have only one product candidate in late-stage clinical development, which may make it difficult for you to evaluate our current business and predict our future success and viability.
  • Our ddCAR and ARC-SparX platforms represent novel and unproven approaches to treatment, which makes it difficult to predict the timing, results and costs of product candidate development and the likelihood of obtaining regulatory approval. In addition, we may experience difficulty in identifying appropriate target binding domains.
  • Our ARC-SparX platform is highly dependent on the success of ACLX-001, ACLX-002 and ACLX-004.
  • Clinical development is a lengthy, expensive and uncertain process. Our clinical trials may fail to demonstrate adequate safety and/or efficacy of any of our product candidates, which would prevent or delay regulatory approval and commercialization and potentially impact the development of our other product candidates.
  • We may encounter substantial delays in our clinical trials.
  • If we encounter delays or difficulties enrolling patients in our clinical trials and/or retention of patients in clinical trials, our clinical development activities could be delayed or otherwise adversely affected.
  • Interim, preliminary or topline 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.
  • Our product candidates and the method of treatment may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties that could halt their clinical development, prevent their regulatory approval, require expansion of the trial size, limit their commercial potential, or result in significant negative consequences.
  • Development of product candidates in combination with other therapies could expose us to additional risks.
  • Manufacturing genetically engineered products is complex and subject to both human and systemic risks. We or our third- party manufacturers may encounter difficulties in production and sourcing and may be subject to variations and supply constraints of key components. If we or any of our third-party manufacturers encounter such difficulties, our ability to provide supply of our product candidates for clinical trials or our products for patients, if approved, could be delayed or prevented.
  • Material modifications in the methods of product candidate manufacturing may result in additional costs or delay.
  • If we or our third-party manufacturers or collaborators use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law, we may be liable for damages.
  • The process for treating patients using T cell therapy is subject to human and systemic risks.
  • Prior treatments can alter the cancer and negatively impact chances for achieving clinical activity with our product candidates.
  • We may not be able to file additional INDs to commence additional clinical trials on the timelines we expect, and even if we are able to, the FDA may not permit us to proceed.
  • The market opportunities for certain of our product candidates may be limited due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, patient availability, competition, reimbursement coverage and access, system capacity or execution challenges. Consequently, markets may be small, and our projections regarding the size of the addressable market may be incorrect.
  • We may expend our limited resources to pursue a particular product candidate or indication and fail to capitalize on product candidates or indications that may be more profitable or for which there is a greater likelihood of success.
  • We face significant competition from other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, and our operating results will suffer if we fail to compete effectively.
  • Even if we obtain regulatory approval of our product candidates, the products may not gain market acceptance among physicians, patients, hospitals, cancer treatment centers and others in the medical community.
  • We may face difficulties from changes to current regulations and future legislation. Current and future legislation may increase the difficulty and cost for us to commercialize our drugs, if approved, and affect the prices we may obtain, including changes in coverage and reimbursement policies in certain market segments for our product candidates, which could make it difficult for us to sell our product candidates, if approved, profitably.
  • We currently have a limited sales and marketing organization and limited experience in marketing cell therapy products. If we are unable to establish adequate marketing and sales capabilities or establish or maintain relationships with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, if approved, we may not be able to generate product revenue.
  • Failure to comply with health and data protection laws and regulations could lead to government enforcement actions (which could include civil or criminal penalties), private litigation and/or adverse publicity and could negatively affect our operating results and business.
  • A variety of risks associated with seeking regulatory approval for and marketing our product candidates internationally could materially adversely affect our business.
  • Inadequate funding and other disruptions for the FDA, the SEC and other government agencies could hinder their ability to hire and retain key leadership and other personnel, prevent new products and services from being developed or commercialized in a timely manner or otherwise prevent those agencies from performing normal business functions on which the operation of our business may rely, which could negatively impact our business.
  • Our business activities may be subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws, as well as U.S. and certain foreign export controls, trade sanctions, and import laws and regulations, all of which can subject us to criminal liability and other serious consequences for violations.
  • We may be unable to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates. The denial or delay of any such approval would delay commercialization and have a material adverse effect on our potential to generate revenue, our business and our results of operations.
  • The FDA regulatory approval process is lengthy, time-consuming and inherently unpredictable, and we may experience significant delays in the clinical development and regulatory approval of our product candidates or be unable to generate product revenue.
  • We have or may pursue Fast Track, orphan drug, and/or RMAT designations from the FDA for one or more of our product candidates. Even if one or more of our product candidates receive Fast Track, orphan drug, and/or RMAT designations, we may be unable to obtain and maintain the benefits associated with such designations. These designations may not lead to a faster development or regulatory review or approval process, and will not increase the likelihood that such product candidates will receive marketing approval.
  • We may pursue Breakthrough Therapy designation for one or more of our product candidates in the future. Even if granted by the FDA, such designation may not lead to a faster development or regulatory review or approval process, and it does not increase the likelihood that the product candidate will receive marketing approval.
  • If approved, our investigational products regulated as biologics may face competition from biosimilars approved through an abbreviated regulatory pathway.
  • Even if we receive regulatory approval of our product candidates, we will be subject to ongoing regulatory obligations and continued regulatory review, which may result in significant additional expense and we may be subject to penalties if we fail to comply with regulatory requirements or experience unanticipated problems with our product candidates.
  • Obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval of our product candidates in one jurisdiction does not mean that we will be successful in obtaining regulatory approval of our product candidates in other jurisdictions. Failure to obtain regulatory approval in foreign jurisdictions would prevent our product candidates from being marketed abroad.
  • Even if we obtain FDA approval of any of our product candidates, we may never obtain approval or commercialize such products outside of the United States, which would limit our ability to realize their full market potential.
  • The impact of recent healthcare reform legislation and other changes in the healthcare industry and in healthcare spending on us is currently unknown, and may adversely affect our business model.
  • Global economic, political and market conditions, including downgrades of the U.S. credit rating and inflation, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, including our revenue growth and profitability.
  • Changes in United States trade policy, including recently announced tariffs, could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations.
  • Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as actual events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, may have serious adverse financial consequences on our business, financial condition and stock price.
  • We are highly dependent on our key personnel, and if we are not successful in attracting and retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy.
  • We expect to grow the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.
  • Our internal computer systems and networks, or those used by our third-party CROs, other contractors, consultants or collaborators, may fail or suffer security breaches or incidents, which could result in a material disruption of the development programs of our product candidates.
  • Our employees, independent contractors, consultants, commercial partners and vendors may engage in misconduct or other improper activities, including noncompliance with regulatory standards and requirements.
  • We will face increasing regulation as we advance our product candidates through clinical trials and pursue commercialization, if approved.
  • We may not realize the benefits of any acquisitions, in-licenses or strategic alliances that we enter into.
  • We may become exposed to costly and damaging product liability claims, either when testing our product candidates in the clinic or at the commercial stage, and our product liability insurance may not cover all damages from such claims.
  • Changes in tax laws or in their implementation or interpretation may adversely affect our business and financial condition.
  • Our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.
  • Our business may be significantly adversely affected if events out of our control disrupt our business or that of our third-party providers.
  • If we fail to establish and maintain proper and effective internal controls over financial reporting, our operating results and our ability to operate our business could be harmed.
  • If we are unable to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures, our business, financial position and results of operations could be adversely affected.
  • Artificial intelligence presents risks and challenges that can impact our business, including by posing security risks to our confidential information, proprietary information and personal data.
  • We rely, and will continue to rely on third parties to conduct our clinical trials. If these third parties do not properly and successfully carry out their contractual duties or meet expected deadlines, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval of or commercialize our product candidates.
  • We rely and expect to continue to rely on third parties to manufacture our clinical product supplies and clinical candidates, and we may rely on third parties for at least a portion of the manufacturing process of our product candidates, if approved. Our business could be harmed if those third parties fail to provide us with sufficient quantities of product supplies or product candidates or fail to do so at acceptable quality levels or prices.
  • Our reliance on third parties requires us to share our trade secrets, which increases the possibility that a competitor will discover them or that our trade secrets will be misappropriated or disclosed.
  • We have entered into a Collaboration Agreement with Kite, and pursuant to the terms of that agreement, are dependent on Kite for certain development, manufacturing and commercialization activities with respect to certain of our product candidates.
  • In addition to our collaboration with Kite, we may seek to establish future collaborations, and, if we are not able to establish them on commercially reasonable terms, we may have to alter our development and commercialization plans.
  • If we are unable to obtain and maintain sufficient intellectual property protection for our platforms and our product candidates, or if the scope of the intellectual property protection is not sufficiently broad, our competitors could develop and commercialize products similar or identical to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our products may be adversely affected.
  • The patent application process is subject to numerous risks and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining patents for which we have applied.
  • We may not identify relevant third-party patents or may incorrectly interpret the relevance, scope or expiration of a third-party patent, which might adversely affect our ability to develop and market our products.
  • If our efforts to protect the proprietary nature of the intellectual property related to our technologies are not adequate, we may not be able to compete effectively in our market.
  • Numerous factors may limit any potential competitive advantage provided by our intellectual property rights.
  • Third-party claims of intellectual property infringement may prevent or delay our product discovery and development efforts.
  • We may become involved in lawsuits to protect or enforce our patents, which could be expensive, time- consuming and unsuccessful.
  • Because of the expense and uncertainty of litigation, we may not be in a position to enforce our intellectual property rights against third parties.

Legal proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings. As of December 31, 2025, we were not 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.
