Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Attached to this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 are two certifications, termed the Section 302 certifications, one by each of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and our Chief Financial Officer (CFO). This Item 9A contains information concerning the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting referred to in the Section 302 Certifications. This information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act has been appropriately recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2025.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of the CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), is a process designed under the supervision and with the participation of our management to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Because of their inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
The Company acquired Sage Therapeutics, Inc. on July 31, 2025 and management excluded from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, Sage Therapeutics, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting associated with 9% of total revenues and 7% of the total assets included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, and under the oversight of our Board of Directors, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 based on criteria related to internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013 Framework).
Based on management's assessment using the criteria set forth above, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.
Our independent registered public accounting firm KPMG LLP, who audited our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, issued an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. KPMG LLP’s report is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, evaluated changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Table of Contents
In 2025, we began the process to integrate the financial reporting systems and processes of the business acquired through the Sage Therapeutics, Inc. acquisition into ours. During the phased implementation of the integration, we experienced certain changes to our processes and procedures, which, in turn, result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. Other than the implementation of 1) controls related to the accounting of the Sage Acquisition, 2) integration of the Sage business, and 3) the related financial statement reporting, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
