Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties relating to future events and the future performance of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Regeneron” or the “Company”), and actual events or results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements concern, and these risks and uncertainties include, among others, whether and to what extent Regeneron will be able to supply the remaining doses of the casirivimab and imdevimab antibody cocktail under the terms of the agreement with U.S. government referenced in this Report (the “Manufacturing and Supply Agreement”), the amount of future payments (if any) Regeneron may receive pursuant to the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, and whether the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement is terminated by the U.S. government or otherwise prior to completion; and the ability of Regeneron's collaborators, suppliers, or other third parties (as applicable) to perform manufacturing, filling, finishing, packaging, labeling, distribution, and other steps related to Regeneron’s products and product candidates, including the casirivimab and imdevimab antibody cocktail. A more complete description of these and other material risks can be found in Regeneron’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020. Any forward-looking statements are made based on management’s current beliefs and judgment, and the reader is cautioned not to rely on any forward-looking statements made by Regeneron. Regeneron does not undertake any obligation to update (publicly or otherwise) any forward-looking statement, including without limitation any financial projection or guidance, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
