Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 13—Commitments and Contingencies Litigation From time to time, the Company may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. The Company records a liability when a particular contingency is probable and estimable. In January 2024 and April 2024, the Company was named a nominal defendant in two putative stockholder derivative actions filed by stockholders of the Company in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The lawsuits have since been consolidated and a lead plaintiff has been appointed. In October 2024, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint asserting claims relating to the Company’s August 2023 Private Placement against (i) certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment; and (ii) certain participants in the Company’s August 2023 Private Placement for aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment. The complaints seek an unspecified award of damages in the Company’s favor, plus pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and an award to the plaintiffs for the costs and disbursement of the action, including fees for their attorneys and experts. The board of directors of the Company has formed a special litigation committee to investigate the claims and allegations in the amended complaint. On January 27, 2025, the court entered an order staying the litigation until June 30, 2025, while the special litigation committee conducts its investigation. On April 30, 2025, the court extended the stay until September 30, 2025. The Company has not recorded a liability related to these lawsuits because, at this time, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible losses or gains or determine whether an unfavorable outcome is either probable or remote. In connection with an investigation captioned In the Matter of Taysha Gene Therapies, Inc. (D-04192), Taysha and certain of its officers and directors received subpoenas in late 2024 from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for materials relating to Taysha’s August 2023 PIPE and certain public offerings. Production of materials in response to the subpoenas was completed in April 2025. The SEC investigation is neither a determination that the Company or any individuals have violated any law nor a charge of any wrongdoing. Commitments In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications with its directors, officers, employees, licensors, suppliers and service providers. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown at March 31, 2025. The Company does not anticipate recognizing any significant losses relating to these arrangements. |
