Regardless of the outcome, such proceedings or claims can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of resources and other factors, and there can be no assurances that favorable outcomes will be obtained. We are currently subject to the following legal proceeding:
Kinnamon vs. Gossamer Bio, Inc., et. al.
On March 31, 2026, Daniel Kinnamon, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a putative class action lawsuit against the Company, certain of its executive officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California (Case No. 3:26-cv-2016-CAB-AHG). The complaint was filed on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s securities between June 16, 2025 and February 20, 2026. The complaint alleges that the Company, certain of its executive officers and directors made false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about its business, operations and prospects in violation of Sections 10(b) (and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The plaintiff seeks damages, interest, costs, attorneys’ fees, and other unspecified equitable relief. On May 4, 2026, the Court entered an order staying any answer or response to the complaint pending the appointment of a lead plaintiff and lead counsel. On July 7, 2026, the Court entered an order appointing Martin Meienhofer and his counsel—The Rosen Law Firm—as Lead Plaintiff and Lead Counsel, respectively. On July 20, 2026, the Court ordered Lead Plaintiff to file his amended complaint by August 10, 2026. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter. Given the uncertainty of litigation, the preliminary stage of the case, and the legal standards that must be met for, among other things, class certification and success on the merits, the Company cannot estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss that may result from this action.
