Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks PALATIN TECHNOLOGIES INC names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Sep 28, 2026: 46 risks under these headings, as written.6
- Our management has determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which make it more difficult and more expensive for us to raise capital.
- We have a history of substantial net losses, including a net loss of $8.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2026. We expect to incur substantial net losses over the next few years, and we may never achieve or maintain profitability.
- We will need additional funding, including funding to complete clinical trials for our product candidates, which may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
- We have limited experience successfully commercializing pharmaceutical products, and our experience with Vyleesi may not be indicative of our ability to successfully develop or commercialize our current or future product candidates.
- Raising additional capital may cause dilution to existing stockholders, restrict our operations, or require us to relinquish rights.
- Our business strategy is increasingly focused on the development of our MC4R agonist programs for rare obesity disorders, and these programs are at an early stage of development and may not be successful.
- We depend on our collaborations and licensing arrangements with third parties, including Boehringer Ingelheim and Altanispac Labs, to successfully develop and commercialize certain of our product candidates, and we may not receive anticipated milestone payments, royalties or other economic benefits from these arrangements.
- We may not receive the contingent payment retained in connection with our settlement with Cosette relating to Vyleesi.
- Geopolitical conflicts and instability could disrupt our operations, increase economic uncertainty and volatility in financial markets, and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- Our MC1R product candidates, including PL8177 for the treatment of ulcerative colitis, are still in the early stages of development and remain subject to clinical testing and regulatory approval. If we are unable to successfully develop and test our product candidates, we will not be successful.
- If clinical trials for our product candidates are prolonged or delayed, we may be unable to commercialize our product candidates on a timely basis, which would require us to incur additional costs and delay our receipt of any revenue from potential product sales.
- We may not be able to secure and maintain relationships with research institutions and other organizations to conduct our clinical trials.
The other 34 risks
- Even if our product candidates receive regulatory approval, they may never achieve market acceptance, in which case our business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.
- Even if our product candidates receive regulatory approval in the United States, we may never receive approval or commercialize our products outside of the United States.
- If side effects emerge that can be linked to any of our product candidates (either while they are in development or after they are approved and on the market), we may be required to perform lengthy additional clinical trials, change the labeling of any such products, or withdraw such products from the market, any of which would hinder or preclude our ability to generate revenues.
- We may not be able to keep up with the rapid technological change in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, which could make any future approved products obsolete and reduce our revenue.
- Competing products and technologies may make our product candidates less competitive or obsolete and may adversely affect the commercial potential of our development programs.
- We rely on third parties over whom we have no control to conduct preclinical studies, clinical trials and other research for our product candidates and their failure to timely perform their obligations could significantly harm our product development.
- We depend on third-party manufacturers and suppliers for our product candidates, and any inability to obtain adequate supplies of materials or product candidates of acceptable quality on a timely basis could delay or adversely affect our development programs.
- We currently have limited sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, and if we are unable to establish appropriate commercialization capabilities or enter into arrangements with third parties to commercialize our product candidates, we may be unable to successfully commercialize any products that receive regulatory approval.
- Our ability to successfully commercialize any approved product candidates will depend in part on obtaining adequate pricing, coverage and reimbursement from governmental authorities, private health insurers and other third-party payers, which may be difficult to obtain or maintain.
- We may be subject to product liability claims arising from the testing, manufacture or commercialization of our product candidates or products, which could result in substantial liabilities and adversely affect our business.
- Cybersecurity incidents, failures of our information technology systems or those of third parties upon which we rely, or unauthorized access to or disclosure of confidential information could disrupt our operations, compromise sensitive information and adversely affect our business.
- We use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies in certain of our research and drug discovery activities, and the use of these technologies may not produce the anticipated benefits and could expose us to additional risks.
- We may be subject to claims that our employees, consultants, collaborators or other third parties with whom we work have wrongfully used or disclosed confidential information, trade secrets or other intellectual property of third parties.
- We are subject to healthcare laws and regulations, including fraud and abuse, false claims, transparency, and data privacy and security laws, and failure to comply with these laws could result in substantial penalties and adversely affect our business.
- We are highly dependent on our management team, scientific and technical personnel and third-party contractors, consultants and collaborators, and the loss of their services or our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could materially and adversely affect our business.
- Both before and after regulatory approval, our product candidates are subject to extensive and continuing regulatory requirements, and failure to comply with these requirements could delay development, prevent or limit commercialization, or result in significant penalties.
- The regulatory approval process is lengthy, expensive and uncertain, and may prevent us from obtaining the approvals that we require.
- Legislative, regulatory or policy changes could increase the costs of developing or commercializing our product candidates, delay or prevent regulatory approval, or otherwise adversely affect our business.
- Changes in healthcare laws, drug pricing, reimbursement policies and other healthcare reforms could adversely affect our business and the commercial potential of our product candidates
- If we fail to adequately protect or enforce our intellectual property rights or secure rights to patents of others, the value of our intellectual property rights would diminish.
- We may become involved in lawsuits to protect or enforce our patents or other intellectual property or the patents of our licensors, which could be expensive and time-consuming.
- If we infringe or are alleged to infringe intellectual property rights of third parties, our business could be harmed.
- Our patent applications and the enforcement or defense of our issued patents may be impacted by the application of or changes in U.S. and foreign standards.
- We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights throughout the world.
- If we are unable to keep our trade secrets confidential, our technologies and other proprietary information may be used by others to compete against us.
- The market price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile, and investors may lose all or a substantial portion of their investment.
- If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and effective disclosure controls and procedures, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements or comply with applicable reporting requirements could be impaired, which could adversely affect our business and the market price of our common stock.
- If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
- Holders of our Series A Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock may have interests different from our common stockholders.
- Because we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, capital appreciation, if any, will be our stockholders’ sole source of gains.
- Anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and our charter documents may make potential acquisitions more difficult and could result in the entrenchment of management.
- We are a smaller reporting company and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.
- As of September 25, 2026, there were 8,763,962 shares of common stock underlying outstanding convertible preferred stock, options, restricted stock units and warrants. Stockholders may experience dilution from the conversion of preferred stock, exercise of outstanding options and warrants and vesting and delivery of restricted stock units.
- If we fail to comply with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, our common stock could be delisted, which could adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock and our ability to raise capital.
Legal proceedings
From time to time, we may become involved in claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe are material to our business, financial condition or results of operations.
