CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected costs, prospects, plans, objectives of management and expected market growth, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “outlook,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and the negative version of these words and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe these factors include but are not limited to those described in the “Risk Factors” section in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and include, among other things:

our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trials of INZ-701 for adults with ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies and our ongoing Phase 1b clinical trial of INZ-701 for infants with ENPP1 Deficiency ("ENERGY-1 trial"), including statements regarding the timing of enrollment and completion of the clinical trials and the period during which the results of the clinical trials will become available;
the timing, design, and conduct of our planned later stage clinical trials of INZ-701 for patients with ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies;Deficiencies, including our planned pivotal clinical trials of INZ-701 for infants ("ENERGY-2 trial"), pediatrics ("ENERGY-3 trial"), and adolescents and adults ("ENERGY-4 trial") with ENPP1 Deficiency and our planned Phase 3 clinical trial of INZ-701 for adults with ABCC6 Deficiency;
our plans to conduct research, preclinical testing and preclinicalclinical testing of INZ-701 for additional indications;
our plans to conduct research, preclinical testing and preclinicalclinical testing of other product candidates;
our plans to engage in regulatory interactions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Medicines Agency and other regulatory authorities;
our plans with respect to regulatory filings;
the timing of, and our ability to obtain and maintain, marketing approvals of INZ-701, and the ability of INZ-701 and our other product candidates to meet existing or future regulatory standards;
our expectations regarding our ability to fund our operating expenses, capital expenditures, and debt service obligationscash flow requirements with our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments;
the potential advantages of our product candidates;
the rate and degree of market acceptance and clinical utility of our product candidates;
our estimates regarding the potential market opportunity for our product candidates;
our commercialization and manufacturing capabilities and strategy;
our intellectual property position;
the impact of COVID-19 on our business and operations;
our ability to identify additional products, product candidates or technologies with significant commercial potential that are consistent with our commercial objectives;

our ability to comply with the covenants under our loan agreement;
the impact of government laws and regulations;
our competitive position; and
our expectations regarding the time during which we will be an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012.

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, collaborations, joint ventures or investments we may make or enter into.

You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data and where otherwise noted)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Inozyme Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) is a clinical-stage rare disease biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics for the treatment of diseases impacting the vasculature, soft tissue, and skeleton.

The Through the Company’s in-depth understanding of a key biological pathway, the Company is pursuing the development of therapeutics to address the underlying causes of these debilitating diseases. It is well established that two genes, ENPP1 and ABCC6, play key roles in athis critical pathway and that defects in these genes lead to low levels of plasma pyrophosphate, which drives pathologic mineralization, and low levels of adenosine, which drives intimal proliferation. The Company is initially focused on developing a novel therapy to treat rare genetic diseases of ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency.Deficiencies.

The Company’s lead product candidate, INZ-701, is a soluble, recombinant, or genetically engineered, fusion protein that is designed to correct defectsa defect in a pathway involving ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies. This pathway is central to the regulation of calcium deposition throughout the body and is further associated with the inhibition of intimal proliferation, leading to aor narrowing and obstruction of blood vessels.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for audited year-end financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. The results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 20222023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022,2023, any other interim periods, or any future year or period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). 2022.

Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern

Since the Company’s incorporation in 2017 and through September 30, 2022,2023, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to raising capital, building infrastructure, developing intellectual property and conducting research and development activities. The Company incurred net losses of $48.549.6 million infor the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $56.6 million in the year ended December 31, 20212023 and had an accumulated deficit of $196.2264.4 million as of September 30, 2022.2023. The Company had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $141.5192.4 million as of September 30, 2022.2023.

The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and has primarily funded its operations with proceeds from the issuance of convertible preferred stock, offerings of common stock and pre-funded warrants, and the Loan Agreementits loan and security agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with K2 HealthVentures LLC (see Note 8). The Company expects its operating losses and negative operating cash flows to continue into the foreseeable future as it continues to expand its research and development efforts.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets, and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes its available cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of September 30, 20222023 will be sufficient to fund its cash flow requirements for at least twelve12 months from the filing date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Management’s expectations with respect to its ability to fund current and long termlong-term planned operations are based on estimates that are subject to risks and uncertainties. If actual results are different from management’s estimates, the Company may need to seek additional strategic or financing opportunities sooner than would otherwise be expected. However, there is no guarantee that any of these strategic or financing opportunities will be executed on favorable terms, or at all, and some could be dilutive to existing stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding on a timely basis, it may be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some or all of its research and development programs, portfolio expansion, or commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Inozyme Securities Corp., which is a Massachusetts subsidiary created to buy, sell, and hold securities,securities; Inozyme Ireland Limited,Limited; and Inozyme Pharma Switzerland GmbH. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are described in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 20212022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company adopted a warrant accounting policy detailed below following the closing of the Company's underwritten offering in April 2022 and a debt and debt issuance costs accounting policy following the closing of the Loan Agreement in July 2022. Apart from these adoptions, thereThere have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and judgments are based on historical information and other market-specific or various relevant assumptions, including, in certain circumstances, future projections that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, the accruals for research and development expenses. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. All revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Accrued Research and Development Costs

The Company records accrued liabilities for estimated costs of research and development activities conducted by service providers for sponsored research, preclinical studies, clinical trials, and contract manufacturing activities. The Company records the estimated costs of research and development activities based upon the estimated amount of services provided but not yet invoiced and includes these costs in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and within research and development expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Company accrues for these costs based on factors such as estimates of the work completed and in accordance with agreements established with service providers. The Company makes significant judgments and estimates in determining the accrued liabilities balance in each reporting period. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accrued liabilities. The Company has not experienced any material differences between accrued costs and actual costs incurred since its inception.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs consist of direct and indirect internal costs related to specific projects as well as fees paid to other entities that conduct certain research and development activities on the Company’s behalf.

Net Loss Per Share

The Company follows the two-class method when computing net loss allocable to common securities per share as the Company had previously issued shares that meet the definition of participating securities. The two-class method requires a portion of net income to be allocated to the participating securities to determine net income allocable to the common securities. During periods of loss, there is no allocation required under the two-class method since the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to fund the losses of the Company.

6


Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants and potentially dilutive securities outstanding using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. The Company has generated a net loss in all periods presented, therefore the basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders are the same as the inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance that establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1- Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2- Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; or
Level 3- Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments and, from time to time, long-term investments. The Company maintains deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits and limits its exposure to credit risk by placing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company’s investments are currently comprised of U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. government agency debt securities, and have also included commercial paper of corporations.corporations in prior periods. The Company mitigates credit risk by maintaining a diversified portfolio and limiting the amount of investment exposure as to institution, maturity, and investment type.

The Company has no significant off-balance sheet risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts, or other foreign hedging arrangements.

DebtCash and Debt Issuance CostsCash Equivalents

Debt issuance costs and the Lender Expenses (see Note 8) are presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability. Debt issuance costs represent legal and other direct costs incurred in connection with the Company’s term loan under the Loan Agreement. These costs are amortized as a non-cash component of interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the loan. Any final payments are included in the cash flows to determine the effective interest rate and are recognized using the effective interest method over the term of the loan.

Warrants

The Company determines the accounting classificationconsiders all highly liquid investments with original maturities of warrants that are issued, as either liabilitythree months or equity, by first assessing whether the warrants meet liability classification in accordance with ASC 480-10, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, and then in accordance with ASC 815-40, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock. Under ASC 480-10, warrants are considered liability classified if the warrants are mandatorily redeemable, obligate the issuer to settle the warrants or the underlying shares by paying cash or other assets, or must or may require settlement by issuing variable number of shares.

If warrants do not meet liability classification under ASC 480-10, the Company assesses the requirements under ASC 815-40, which states that contracts that require or may require the issuer to settle the contract for cash are liabilities recordedless at fair value, irrespective of the likelihood of the transaction occurring that triggers the net cash settlement feature. If the warrants do not require liability classification under ASC 815-40, in order to conclude equity classification, the Company assesses whether the warrants are indexed to its common stock and whether the warrants are classified as equity under ASC 815-40 or other applicable U.S.

GAAP. After all relevant assessments are made, the Company concludes whether the warrants are classified as liability or equity. Liability classified warrants are required to be accounted for at fair value both on the date of issuancepurchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and on subsequent accounting period ending dates, with all changescash equivalents include cash in readily available checking accounts, money market accounts and certain marketable securities. Cash is carried at cost, which approximates its fair value after the issuance date recorded in the statements of operations as a gain or loss. Equity classified warrantsvalue. Cash equivalents are accounted forcarried at fair valuemarket value.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is composed of amounts held to collateralize the letter of credit related to the Company’s lease arrangements. Restricted cash is classified as either current or non-current based on the issuance date with no changes in fair value recognized afterterms of the issuance date.underlying lease arrangement.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing several exceptions in the current standard and adding guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, such as requiring that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2022. There was no material impact to the Company's financial statements upon adoption.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The Company elected to early adopt this standard effective January 1, 2022. There was no material impact to the Company's financial statements upon adoption.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASUAccounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 and its subsequent related updates establish a new forward-looking “expected loss model” that requires entities to estimate current expected credit losses on accounts receivable and financial instruments by using all practical and relevant information. The new standard and its subsequent related updates are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adoptingadopted this standard will have on its consolidatedeffective January 1, 2023. There was no impact to the Company's financial statements but does not expect it to be material.upon adoption.

As of the investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired. In accordance with its investment policy,September 30, 2023, the Company invests in investment grade securities with high credit quality issuers, and generally limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at the end of each reporting period. Impairment is evaluated considering numerous factors, and their relative significance varies depending on the situation. Factors considered include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less thanbelieves that the cost basis the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer,its available-for-sale securities is recoverable and the Company’sCompany has the intent and ability to hold the investment to allowits available-for-sale securities until recovery. Therefore, no allowance for an anticipated recovery in fair value. Furthermore, the aggregate of individual unrealizedcredit losses that had been outstanding for 12 months or less was not significant as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company does not intend to sell these investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before a recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity. The Company also believes that it will be able to collect both principal and interest amounts due at maturity.

6. License and Sponsored Research AgreementsAgreement

In January 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Yale University (“Yale”), which was amended in May 2020 and July 2020, under which the Company licensed certain intellectual property related to ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase enzymes that is the basis for the Company’s INZ-701 development program. Pursuant to the license agreement, as partial upfront consideration, the Company made a payment of approximately $0.1 million to Yale, which amount reflected unreimbursed patent expenses incurred by Yale prior to the date of the license agreement. The Company is responsible for paying Yale an annual license maintenance fee in varying amounts throughout the term ranging from the low tens of thousands of dollars to the high tens of thousands of dollars. As of September 30, 2022,2023, the Company incurred a life-to-date total of $0.20.7 million in license maintenance fees to Yale.

The Company must also pay Yale a percentage in the twenties of certain types of income it receives from sublicensees. The Company is also responsible for costs relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the licensed patents.

8. Convertible Debt

Loan Agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC

On July 25, 2022, the Company, as borrower, entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Loan Agreement”)the Loan Agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC (“K2HV”, together with any other lender from time to time, the “Lenders”), K2HV, as administrative agent for the Lenders, and Ankura Trust Company, LLC, as collateral agent for the Lenders. The Loan Agreement provides up to $70.0 million principal in term loans, subject to certain customary conditions. The Company received $5.0 million from the first tranche commitment upon closing. The first tranche commitment containscontained an additional $20.0 million available to be drawn at the Company’s option thoughthrough March 31, 2023. The Company elected to borrow the remaining $20.0 million in February 2023. Two subsequent tranche commitments totaling $20.0 million in the aggregate are available to be drawn at the Company’s option during certain availability periods, subject to the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones relating to INZ-701. The Company elected to borrow $7.5 million under the second tranche commitment in June 2023. A fourth tranche commitment of $25.0 million may be made available to be drawn down at the Company’s option through August 31, 2025, subject to use of proceeds limitations and Lender's consent inat its discretion. The fourth tranche commitment is subject to an additional 0.75% facility fee. As of September 30, 2023, a total of $37.5 million of borrowing capacity remained available under the Loan Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. As security for its obligations under the Loan Agreement, the Company granted the Lenders a first priority security interest on substantially all of the Company’s assets (other than intellectual property), subject to certain exceptions.

10


The term loan matures onAugust 1, 2026, and the Company is obligated to make interest only payments for the first 36 months and then interest and equal principal payments through the maturity date. The term loan bears a variable interest rate equal to the greater of (i) 7.85%, and (ii) the sum of (A) the prime rate last quoted in The Wall Street Journal (or a comparable replacement rate if The Wall Street Journal ceases to quote such rate) and (B) 3.85%; provided that the interest rate cannot exceed 9.60%. The interest rate as of September 30, 2022,2023 was 9.60% based upon an increase in the prime rate in September 2022.. The Company has the option to prepay all, but not less than, the outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the principal balance being repaid of the term loans, subject to a prepayment premium to which the Lenders are entitled. The prepayment fee is 3% prior to the second anniversary of the July 25, 2022 funding date, 2% after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary of the funding date, and 1% thereafter if prior to the maturity date. Upon final payment or prepayment of the loans, the Company must pay a final payment equal to 6.25% of the loans borrowed ("Final Fee"), which is being accrued as interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method.

The Lenders may elect, prior to the full repayment of the term loans, to convert up to $5.0 million of outstanding principal of the term loans into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price of $6.21 per share, subject to customary adjustments and 9.99% and 19.99% beneficial ownership limitations. The Company determined that the embedded conversion option was not required to be separated from the term loan. The embedded conversion option met the derivative accounting scope exception since the embedded conversion option is indexed to the Company’s own common stock and qualifies for classification within stockholders’ equity.

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, dispose of assets, make changes to the Company’s business, management, ownership or business locations, merge or consolidate, incur additional indebtedness, incur additional liens, pay dividends or other distributions or repurchase equity, make investments, and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to certain exceptions. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, a default interest rate of an additional 5.00% per annum may be applied to the outstanding loan balances, and the Lender may declare all outstanding obligations immediately due and payable and exercise all of its rights and remedies as set forth in the Loan Agreement and under applicable law. As of September 30, 2022,2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Agreement.

Subject to certain conditions, the Company granted the Lenders the right, prior to repayment of the term loans, to invest up to $5.0 million in the aggregate in future offerings of common stock, convertible preferred stock, or other equity securities of the Company that are broadly marketed and offered to multiple investors on the same terms, conditions, and pricing afforded to others participating in any such financing.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $0.5 million in connection with the term loan. In addition, at the time of closing, the Company paid to the Lenders a facility fee of $0.4 million, as well as $0.1 million of other expenses incurred by the Lenders and reimbursed by the Company ("(“Lender Expenses"Expenses”). The debt issuance costs, Lender Expenses and the Final Fee are being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. The Company recorded interest expense of $0.11.0 million and $2.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.2023, respectively. At September 30, 2022,2023, the carrying value of the Loan Agreement approximatesapproximated the fair value of the term loan, considering that it bears interest that is similar to prevailing market rates.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in thethis Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or SEC,("SEC") on March 15, 2022.22, 2023. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking statements. For convenience of presentation, some of the numbers have been rounded in the text below.

Overview

We are a clinical-stage rare disease biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics for the treatment of diseases impacting the vasculature, soft tissue, and skeleton. Through our in-depth understanding of a key biological pathway, we are pursuing the development of therapeutics to address the underlying causes of these debilitating diseases. It is well established that two genes, ENPP1 and ABCC6, play key roles in this critical pathway and that defects in these genes lead to low levels of plasma pyrophosphate ("PPi"), which drives pathologic mineralization, and low levels of adenosine, which drives intimal proliferation. We are initially focused on developing a novel therapy to treat the rare genetic diseases of ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies.

Our lead product candidate, INZ-701, is a soluble, recombinant, or genetically engineered, fusion protein that is designed to correct defectsa defect in a pathway involving ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies. This pathway is central to the regulation of calcium deposition throughout the body and is further associated with the inhibition of intimal proliferation, leading to aor narrowing and obstruction of blood vessels. We have generated robust proof of concept data in preclinical models demonstrating that INZ-701 prevented pathologic mineralization,pathological calcification and skeletal abnormalities, led to improvements in overall health and survival, and prevented intimal proliferation.

We are currently conducting Phase 1/2 clinical trials of INZ-701 for the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency. These clinical trials are being conducted in both North America and in Europe. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA,("FDA"), has granted Orphan Drug Designation and the European Medicines Agency have("EMA"), has granted orphan drug designationOrphan Designation to INZ-701 for the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency. The FDA has also granted fast track designation for INZ-701 for the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency and rare pediatric disease designation for the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency.

Executive Summary

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we continued to advance our ongoing clinical trials of INZ-701 in patients with ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies. Key highlights and accomplishments during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as well as upcoming anticipated milestones include:

Key Highlights

Clinical Overview

ENPP1 Deficiency

Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial in Adults with ENPP1 Deficiency

In November 2021, we initiated our Phase 1/2 clinical trial of INZ-701 in adult patients with ENPP1 Deficiency. ThisThe trial is currently ongoingwill primarily assess the safety and tolerability of INZ-701 in North Americaadult patients with ENPP1 Deficiency, as well as characterize the pharmacokinetic and Europe.pharmacodynamic profile of INZ-701, including evaluation of levels of plasma PPi and other biomarker levels. In the Phase 1 dose-escalation portion of the clinical trial, we are assessingassessed INZ-701 for 32-days32 days at doses of 0.2 mg/kg, 0.6 mg/kg, and 1.8 mg/kg administered via subcutaneous injection, twice weekly, with three patients planned per dose cohort. Patients received a single dose and then began twice-weekly dosing one week later. The trial initially enrolled nine patients with ENPP1 Deficiency at sites in North America and Europe. The Phase 1 dose-escalation portion of the trial sought to identify a safe and tolerable dose that increases PPi levels, and that can be used for further clinical development. The ongoing open-label Phase 2 portion of the trial is assessing long-term safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of continued treatment with INZ-701 for up to 48 weeks, where patients may receive doses of INZ-701 at home depending on site-specific protocols. Exploratory endpoints include evaluations of ectopic calcification, skeletal, vascular, and physical function, patient-reported outcomes and exploratory biomarkers.

In April 2022, we announced preliminary biomarker, safety, and pharmacokinetic or PK, data from the 0.2 mg/kg cohort of this trial. At the 0.2 mg/kg dose level of INZ-701, all three patients showed rapid, significant, and sustained increases in plasma pyrophosphate, or PPi, levels. Preclinical findings demonstrated PPi being a key predictive biomarker of therapeutic benefit in ENPP1 Deficiency. The range of PPi levels across the three patients at screening was 132-333 nM. At the 0.2 mg/kg dose level of INZ-701, the mean PPi level observed during the 32-day dose evaluation period across the three patients was 1356 nM, an approximately 5-fold mean increase from screening across the three patients. The range of peak PPi levels observed during the 32-day dose evaluation period across the three patients was 1082-2416 nM, and was comparable to data from our study of healthy subjects (n=10), which showed PPi levels between 1002 nM and 2169 nM. Increased PPi levels observed after dosing of INZ-701 were associated with systemic exposure and activity of INZ-701. PK analysis showed INZ-701 nearing steady-state by Day 29 with an approximately 4-fold accumulation from Day 1, based on AUC0-72. We believe that the half-life of INZ-701 observed in this trial suggests the potential for once-weekly dosing. All three patients from the first cohort enrolled in the open-label Phase 2 48-week extension portion of the trial. At Week 12, low titers of anti-drug antibodies were observed in two out of three patients. The significantly increased PPi levels observed during the 32-day dose evaluation period were sustained in all three patients through Week 12 of the extension portion of the trial. INZ-701 was generally well-tolerated, with no treatment-related serious adverse events reported, and otherwise exhibited a favorable initial safety profile.

We are currently dosing patients in the 1.8 mg/kg cohort and plan to report topline data from this trial in the fourth quarter of 2022. In November 2022, we announced the first self-administration of INZ-701 in the open-label Phase 2 48-week extension portion of the trial.

In February 2023, we reported positive topline pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and safety data from this trial. A rapid, significant, and sustained increase in PPi was observed in all dose cohorts and in all patients, with a target PPi threshold achieved from the lowest dose of 0.2 mg/kg. PPi increased in all patients to levels comparable to those observed in a study of healthy subjects (n=10), which study showed PPi levels between 1002 nM and 2169 nM.

In the second quarter of 2023, we dosed two patients in a fourth cohort at 1.2 mg/kg to investigate the potential for once-weekly dosing of INZ-701 in the ongoing trial.

In September 2023, we reported positive interim safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and exploratory efficacy data from this trial. A rapid, significant, and sustained increase in PPi was observed in all dose cohorts and in all patients, and a significant elevation in PPi was maintained for up to 18 months. INZ-701 activity increased in proportion to dose level and a long half-life of approximately 126 hours, and drug accumulation as shown by a greater-than-dose proportional exposure suggests the potential for once-weekly dosing. Exploratory biomarker data were collected to provide evidence of the potential for disease modification with ongoing treatment with INZ-701. Notable changes in key biomarkers support our clinical hypothesis. Clinical outcome measures were also collected to assess potential clinical benefit with ongoing treatment with INZ-701 and to inform the design and patient selection of future trials. Notable changes in patient reported outcomes and functional outcomes were observed in

all cohorts, including concordant improvement in GIC scores reported by patients and clinicians, and no patient showed a deterioration from baseline. INZ-701 was generally well-tolerated and exhibited a favorable safety profile, with no serious or severe adverse events attributed to INZ-701 and no adverse events leading to study withdrawal. Three of the nine patients experienced mild adverse events related to INZ-701. INZ-701 exhibited a favorable immunogenicity profile with low titers of non-neutralizing anti-drug antibodies observed in seven of the nine patients. All nine patients enrolled in the Phase 2 portion of the trial and two of them subsequently withdrew for personal reasons not related to adverse events. The anti-drug antibody levels were transient in three of seven patients. Seven patients remain in the trial and continue on home self-administration of INZ-701 treatment.

We are also actively engagedexpect to report topline data from the first three cohorts of the ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of INZ-701 in designingadults with ENPP1 Deficiency in the first quarter of 2024.

ENERGY-1 Clinical Trial in Infants with ENPP1 Deficiency

In June 2023, we dosed the first infant patient in our Phase 1b, single arm, open-label clinical trial of INZ-701 ("ENERGY-1 trial"), designed primarily to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and planningpharmacodynamics of INZ-701 in infants with ENPP1 Deficiency. The ENERGY-1 trial is expected to enroll up to eight infants between the ages of 1 and 12 months across multiple sites in the United States and Europe. Patients will receive subcutaneous doses of INZ-701 during the treatment period of 52 weeks and may continue to receive INZ-701 in an extension period beyond 52 weeks. Doses range from 0.2 mg/kg once weekly through 0.6 mg/kg twice weekly, with the ability to increase the dose further depending on the results of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety data. Other outcome measures include evaluation of plasma PPi levels, survival, growth, development, functional performance, cardiac function, and exploratory biomarkers. We expect to report interim data from the ENERGY-1 trial in the second half of 2024.

Additional Anticipated Clinical Trials of INZ-701 for the Treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency

We anticipate initiating the ENERGY-2 trial, a pivotal trial of INZ-701 in infants with ENPP1 Deficiency, outside of the United States in the second quarter of 2024.

We initiated pivotal trial meetings with the FDA in the first quarter of 2023. We have reached agreement with the EMA on a Paediatric Investigational Plan for a pivotal trial of INZ-701 in pediatric patients with ENPP1 Deficiency. We have finalized the design for a global pivotal clinical trial of INZ-701 in pediatric patients with ENPP1 Deficiency.Deficiency ("ENERGY-3 trial"). In September 2023, we opened the first site for our ENERGY-3 trial, and patient recruitment is underway. We anticipate reporting topline data from the ENERGY-3 trial in mid-2025.

Pending regulatory discussions and appropriate financial resources, we also plan to conduct a pivotal trial in adolescents and adults with ENPP1 Deficiency ("ENERGY-4 trial").

Global Development Strategy of INZ-701 for the Treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency

In July 2023, we announced a regulatory update for our global development strategy of INZ-701 for the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency following recent meetings with the FDA and the Paediatric Committee of the EMA. Also in July 2023, we completed a scientific advice procedure and reached alignment with CHMP regarding our global development strategy.

Basis for Planned Marketing Applications

Based on regulatory feedback from the FDA and EMA, positive data from the ongoing and planned clinical trials of INZ-701 in patients with ENPP1 Deficiency, including comprehensive data demonstrating clinical impact of plasma PPi, could provide the basis for our submission of marketing applications in both the United States and the European Union. These data will include final results from our ongoing Phase 1/2 trial in adult patients with ENPP1 Deficiency, available results from our ongoing ENERGY-1 trial, available results from the planned pivotal ENERGY-2 trial in infants to be initiated outside of the United States, and final results from the planned pivotal ENERGY-3 trial in pediatric patients.

If these marketing applications are approved, we expect to commercially launch INZ-701 for infant and pediatric patients as early as the second half of 2026. Data from the planned ENERGY-4 trial in adolescent and adult patients with ENPP1 Deficiency may provide a basis for a supplemental marketing application.

ABCC6 Deficiency

In April 2022, we initiated our Phase 1/2 clinical trial of INZ-701 in adult patients with ABCC6 Deficiency. The trial is currently ongoingenrolled 10 patients with ABCC6 Deficiency at sites in the United States and Europe. The trial will primarily assess the safety and tolerability of INZ-701 in adult patients with ABCC6 Deficiency, as well as characterize the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of INZ-701, including the evaluation of levels of plasma PPi and other biomarkers. In the Phase 1 dose-escalation portion of the clinical trial, we are assessing

assessed INZ-701 for 32-days32 days at doses of 0.2 mg/kg, 0.6 mg/kg, and 1.8 mg/kg administered via subcutaneous injection, twice weekly, with three patients per dose cohort.

One patient from the highest dose cohort (1.8 mg/kg) was withdrawn from the Phase 1 portion of the trial at day 18 due to a moderate adverse event (erythema/urticaria) related to INZ-701. Patients received a single dose and then began twice-weekly dosing one week later. In July 2022, we announced preliminary biomarker, safety, and PKpharmacokinetic data from the 0.2 mg/kg cohort of the Phase 1 dose-escalation portion of this trial. At the 0.2 mg/kg dose levelBeginning in 2023, self-administration of INZ-701 all threein the open-label Phase 2 portion of the trial was available. The Phase 1 dose-escalation portion of the trial sought to identify a safe and tolerable dose that increases PPi levels for further clinical development. The open-label Phase 2 portion of the trial will assess long-term safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of continued treatment with INZ-701 for up to 48 weeks, where patients showed rapid and significant increases in PPi levels. Preclinical findings demonstrated PPi being a key predictive biomarker of therapeutic benefit in ABCC6 Deficiency. The mean PPi level across the three patients at baseline was 851 nM. At the 0.2 mg/kg dose levelmay receive doses of INZ-701 at home depending on site-specific protocols. Exploratory endpoints will include evaluations of ectopic calcification, vascular and retinal function, patient reported outcomes, and exploratory biomarkers.

In February 2023, we reported positive topline safety, pharmacodynamic, and pharmacokinetic data from this trial. A dose-dependent response in plasma PPi levels was observed, with a sustained increase in the mean PPi level observed during the 32-dayhighest dose evaluation period across the three patients was 1057 nM, which was within the rangecohort to levels comparable to those observed in our study of healthy subjects (n=10), which showedsubjects.

In September 2023, we reported positive interim safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and exploratory efficacy data from this trial. A dose-dependent response in plasma PPi levels between 1002 nM and 2169 nM. The range of peak PPi levelswas observed, across the three patientswith a sustained increase in the 32-dayhighest dose evaluation periodcohort to levels comparable to those observed in our study of healthy subjects.

Preliminary PKobserved, and INZ-701 enzymatic activity remained consistent with data reporteddrug accumulation as shown by a greater-than-dose proportional exposure suggests the potential for once weekly dosing. Clinical outcome measures were collected to provide evidence of clinical benefit and to inform the design of future trials in adults. All patients showed improvements on clinician-reported GIC scores and seven of the nine patients showed improvement from our ongoing Phase 1/2 trial of INZ-701 in patients with ENPP1 Deficiency. INZ-701 continued to exhibit a favorable initial safety profile.baseline on patient-reported GIC scores at the last follow-up. INZ-701 was generally well-tolerated and exhibited a favorable safety profile, with no serious or severe adverse events reported. Lowattributed to INZ-701. Seven of the 10 patients experienced adverse events related to INZ-701. All adverse events were mild to moderate in severity. One patient withdrew from the trial during the Phase 2 portion for personal reasons not related to an adverse event. INZ-701 exhibited a favorable immunogenicity profile with low titers of non-neutralizing anti-drug antibodies were observed in one patient at day 32eight of the trial, which had no impact on PK or ENPP1 activity.

We are currently dosing patients in the 1.8 mg/kg cohort and planexpect to report topline data from thisthe ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of INZ-701 in adults with ABCC6 Deficiency in the first quarter of 2023.2024. Subject to regulatory review and sufficient funding, we plan to initiate a Phase 3 clinical trial of INZ-701 in adult patients with ABCC6 Deficiency in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Expanded Access Program

In February 2023, we dosed our first pediatric patient with ENPP1 Deficiency with INZ-701 under our expanded access program. Under an expanded access program, we can use INZ-701 outside of our clinical trials to treat patients with serious or immediately life-threatening diseases or conditions when there are no comparable or satisfactory alternative treatment options and when other criteria are met.

Future Development Plans; Other Potential Indications for INZ-701

Subject to successfully completing clinical development of INZ-701 in ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies, we plan to seek marketing approvals for INZ-701 on a worldwide basis. Beyond our development focus on INZ-701, we believe that our therapeutic approach has the potential to benefit patients suffering from additional diseases of pathologic mineralization and intimal proliferation, including those without a clear genetic basis, such as calciphylaxis andor calcifications as a result of end stageend-stage kidney disease. Based on regulatory feedback, we plan

In December 2022, the FDA allowed our Investigational New Drug to initiateenable us to evaluate INZ-701 in a clinical trial in end stagepatients with end-stage kidney disease and calciphylaxis. We plan to initiate SEAPORT-1, a Phase 1 clinical trial designed to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of INZ-701 in patients with ESKD receiving hemodialysis, in the first half of 2024 and wereport interim data in the fourth quarter of 2024. We expect data from this trial to inform our development plans in calciphylaxis. We are also exploring the potential for development of a gene therapy for ENPP1 Deficiency.

Our Operations

We have not yet commercialized any products or generated any revenue from product sales. Our operations to date have been limited to organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, securing intellectual property rights, conducting research and development activities, includingconducting preclinical studies and early-stage clinical trials, establishing arrangements for the manufacture of INZ-701, and longer termlonger-term planning for potential commercialization. To date, we have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the sales of convertible preferred stock, offerings of common stock and pre-funded warrants and borrowings under our loan and security agreement, or the Loan Agreement, with K2 HealthVentures LLC, or K2HV.

Uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of COVID-19 on our future research and development activities and the potential for a material impact on the Company increases the longer the virus impacts certain aspects of economic activity around the world. The full extent to which COVID-19 will directly or indirectly impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, including our ability to fulfill our clinical trial enrollment needs, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat COVID-19, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international markets, the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions and social distancing in the United States and other countries, business closures or business disruptions, the ultimate impact on financial markets and the global economy, the effectiveness of vaccines and vaccine distribution efforts and the effectiveness of other actions taken in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease.

Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Our ability to generate revenue from product sales sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of INZ-701 or one or more of our future product candidates and programs. Our net losses were $48.5 million for thenine months ended September 30, 2022 and $56.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $196.2 million.

Our operating expenses were $49.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $56.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. We expect to continue to incur significant operating expenses for the foreseeable future. We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing and planned activities, particularly as we advance our preclinical activities and clinical trials. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for INZ-701 or any other product candidate we develop, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company.

As a result, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate significant revenues from product sales, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and marketing, distribution and licensing arrangements. We do not have any committed external source of funds, other than under our Loan Agreement.loan and security agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC (the "Loan Agreement"). Our ability to borrow under our Loan Agreement is

17


subject to our satisfaction of specified conditions and lender discretion. If we are unable to raise capital or obtain adequate funds when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our research and development programs or any future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves. In addition, attempting to secure additional financing may divert the time and attention of our management from day-to-day activities and distract from our research and development efforts.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with pharmaceutical product development, we are unable to accurately predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when, or if, we will be able to achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to become and remain profitable would depress the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, maintain our research and development efforts, diversify our pipeline of product candidates, or even continue our operations.

As of September 30, 2022,Based on our current operating plan, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $141.5 million.

On April 14, 2022, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Jefferies LLC and Cowen and Company, LLC, relating to an underwritten offering of 16,276,987 shares of our common stock or the Shares, and, in lieu of common stock to certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,523,013 shares of common stock. The closing of the offering took place on April 19, 2022. The offering price of the Shares was $3.69 per share and the offering price of the pre-funded warrants was $3.6899 per share underlying each pre-funded warrant. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $68.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

On July 25, 2022, we entered into a Loan Agreement with K2HV (together with any other lender from time to time party thereto, the “Lenders”), K2HV, as administrative agent for the Lenders, and Ankura Trust Company, LLC, as collateral agent for the Lenders. The Loan Agreement provides up to $70.0 million principal in term loans consisting of (subject to certain customary conditions): (i) a first tranche commitment of $25.0 million, of which $5.0 million was funded at closing and with the remainder available to be drawn at our option through March 31, 2023, or the First Tranche Commitment, (ii) two subsequent tranche commitments totaling $20.0 million in the aggregate to be drawn at our option during certain availability periods, subject to the achievement, as determined by the administrative agent in its sole discretion, of certain time-based, clinical and regulatory milestones relating to INZ-701, and (iii) a fourth tranche commitment of $25.0 million available to be drawn at our option through August 31, 2025, subject to use of proceeds limitations and Lender’s consent in its discretion.

The facility carries a 48-month term with interest only payments for 36 months and then interest and equal principal payments for the next 12 months. The term loan will mature on August 1, 2026 and bears a variable interest rate equal to the greater of (i) 7.85% and (ii) the sum of (A) the prime rate last quoted in The Wall Street Journal (or a comparable replacement rate if The Wall Street Journal ceases to quote such rate) and (B) 3.85%; provided that the interest rate cannot exceed 9.60%. We may prepay, at our option, all, but not less than all, of the outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the principal balance being prepaid of the term loans, subject to a prepayment premium to which the Lenders are entitled and certain notice requirements. We paid the Lenders certain customary fees and expenses at closing and are required to pay the Lenders additional fees that may be due upon maturity or prepayment such as final payment fees and prepayment fees. As security for its obligations under the Loan Agreement, we granted the Lenders a first priority security interest on substantially all of our assets (other than intellectual property), subject to certain exceptions.

Subject to certain conditions, we granted the Lenders the right, prior to repayment of the term loans, to invest up to $5,000,000 in the aggregate in our future offerings of common stock, convertible preferred stock or other equity securities that are broadly marketed and offered to multiple investors, on the same terms, conditions and pricing afforded to others participating in any such financing.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of September 30, 2022, together with the remainder of the First Tranche Commitment,2023 will enable us to fund our cash flow requirements into the secondfourth quarter of 2024.2025. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us. See “—Liquidity“Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

To finance our operations beyond that point, we will need to raise additional capital, which cannot be assured.

We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially if and as we:

conduct our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trials of INZ-701 for ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency;
prepare for, initiate, and conduct later stageplanned clinical trials of INZ-701 for patients with ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies;

18


conduct research, preclinical, and preclinicalclinical testing of INZ-701 for additional indications;
conduct research, preclinical, and preclinicalclinical testing of other product candidates;
advance INZ-701 for additional indications or any other product candidate into clinical development;
seek marketing approval for INZ-701 or any other product candidate if it successfully completes clinical trials;
scale up our manufacturing processes and capabilities;
establish a sales, marketing, and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any product candidate for which we may obtain marketing approval;
in-license or acquire additional technologies or product candidates;

19


make any payments to Yale University or Yale,("Yale") under our license agreement or sponsored research agreement with Yale;
maintain, expand, enforce, and protect our intellectual property portfolio;
hire additional clinical, regulatory, quality control, scientific, and scientificcommercial personnel; and
add operational, financial, and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our research, product development, and planned future commercialization efforts and our operations as a public company.company; and
make any principal and interest payments when due under the terms of the Loan Agreement.

Financial Operations Overview

Revenue

To date, we have not generated any revenue from product sales and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products in the foreseeable future. If development efforts for our product candidates are successful and result in regulatory approval or we enter into collaboration or similar agreements with third parties, we may generate revenue from those product candidates.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expensesactivities are central to our business model. Research and development costs consist of direct and indirect costs related to specific projects as well as fees paid to other entities that conduct certain research and development activities on our behalf and primarily consist ofrelate to costs incurred in connection with the discovery and development of our lead product candidate, INZ-701.

We expense research and development costs as incurred. These expenses include:

fees and expenses incurred in connection with the in-license of technology and intellectual property rights;
expenses incurred under agreements with third parties, including contract research organizations or CROs,("CROs"), and other third parties that conduct research, preclinical, and clinical activities on our behalf as well as third parties that manufacture our product candidates for use in our preclinical studies and planned clinical trials;
manufacturing scale-up expenses and the costcosts of acquiring and manufacturing preclinical trial materials, including manufacturing validation batches;
personnel-related expenses, includingconsisting primarily of salaries, related benefits, travel and stock-based compensation expense for employees and consultants engaged in research and development functions;
the costs and acquisition of laboratory supplies, and acquiring, developing preclinical studies and clinical trial materials;

19


costs related to compliance with regulatory requirements; and
an allocation of facilities costs, which include depreciation costs of equipment, and allocated expenses for rent, information technology, utilities, and other operating costs.

We recognize external development costs based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using information provided to us by our service providers. We do not currently track research and development expenses by specific indication.

Research and development activities are central to our business model. We are still in the early stages of development of INZ-701. 20


We are currently conducting our Phase 1/2 clinical trials of INZ-701 for adults with ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency and our ENERGY-1 trial for infants with ENPP1 Deficiency. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in preclinical development or in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials. From inception through September 30, 2022, we have incurred $128.3 million of research and development costs for INZ-701. We expect that our research and development costsexpenses will continue to increase substantially for the foreseeable future as we execute on our global development strategy, prepare for and conduct the ongoing and planned clinical trials of INZ-701, prepare for, initiate and conduct later stage clinical trials of INZ-701 for patients with ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies, further scale our manufacturing processes, and advance development of INZ-701 for additional indications, and potentially develop additional product candidates.

The successful development of INZ-701 and other potential future product candidates is highly uncertain. Accordingly, at this time, we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing and costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the development of any product candidate. We are also unable to predict when, if ever, we will generate revenue and material net cash inflows from the commercialization and sale of any of our product candidates for which we may obtain marketing approval. We may never succeed in achieving marketing approval for any of our product candidates. The success of INZ-701 and any other product candidate we develop will depend on a variety of factors, including:

successfully completing preclinical studies and initiating clinical trials;
successfully enrolling patients in and completing clinical trials;
scaling up manufacturing processes and capabilities to support clinical trials of INZ-701 and any other product candidates we develop;
applying for and receiving marketing approvals from applicable regulatory authorities;
obtaining and maintaining intellectual property protection and regulatory exclusivity for INZ-701 and any other product candidates we develop;
making arrangements for commercial manufacturing capabilities;
establishing sales, marketing and distribution capabilities and launching commercial sales of INZ-701 and any other product candidates we develop, if and when approved, whether alone or in collaboration with others;
acceptance of INZ-701 and any other product candidates we develop, if and when approved, by patients, the medical community and third-party payors;
effectively competing with other therapies;
obtaining and maintaining coverage, adequate pricing and adequate reimbursement from third-party payors, including government payors;
maintaining, enforcing, defending and protecting our rights in our intellectual property portfolio;
not infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating others’ intellectual property or proprietary rights; and
maintaining a continued acceptable safety profile of our products following receipt of any marketing approvals.

20


A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development, manufacture or commercialization activities of any of our product candidates could mean a significant change in the costs, timing and viability associated with the development of that product candidate. For example, if we are required to conduct additional clinical trials or other testing beyond those that we anticipate will be required for the completion of clinical development of a product candidate, or if we experience significant delays in our clinical trials due to patient enrollment or other reasons, we would be required to expend significant additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, related benefits, travel, and stock-based compensation expense for personnel in executive, finance, and administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include professional fees for legal, consulting, accounting, tax, and audit services, and an allocation of facilities and information technology infrastructure costs. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support our continued research activities and development of our product candidates. We incur, and anticipate that we will continue to incur, costs associated with being a public company, including costs of accounting, audit, legal, regulatory, compliance and tax-related services related to maintaining compliance with requirements of Nasdaq and the SEC; director and officer insurance costs; and investor and public relations costs. WeAdditionally, we may experience an increase in payroll and expense as a result of our preparation for potential commercial operations, especially as it relatesrelated to sales and marketing costs. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods as we expand our operations, execute on our global development strategy, and incur costs associated with being a public company.

We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods as we expand our operations and incur costs in connection with being a public company.

Interest Income

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $1.1due to a $4.2 million increase in interest income as a result of higher interest rates and a larger cash balance on which we are earning interest, partially offset by a $2.0 million increase in interest expense associated with the periodLoan Agreement.

Other Expense, net

Other expense, net decreased approximately $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to a lower amount of unrealized losses associated with our marketable securities compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.2022.

Other Expenses

Other expenses, consisting primarily of foreign exchange gains and losses, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $0.3 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Since our inception, we have not generated any revenue and have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from our operations. To date, we have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the sales of convertible preferred stock, offerings of common stock and pre-funded warrants and borrowings under our Loan Agreement. Through September 30, 2022,Until such time, if ever, as we had received netcan generate substantial revenues from product sales, we expect to finance our cash proceedsneeds through a combination of approximately $299.8 million from sales of our convertible preferred stock, common stockequity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and pre-funded warrants, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, and proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, net of issuance costs. As of September 30, 2022, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $141.5 million.marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements.

On August 11, 2021, we filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective on August 23, 2021, or the Registration Statement. Under the Registration Statement, we may offer and sell up to $200.0 million of a variety of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, debt securities, warrants, subscription rights or units from time to time pursuant to one or more offerings at prices and terms to be determined at the time of the sale. In connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, we entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement with Jefferies LLC, as sales agent, pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock with an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million under an “at-the-market” offering program. To date,For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we have not sold any securities962,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Open Market Sale Agreement.Agreement for aggregate net proceeds of $5.1 million. As of September 30, 2023, we had sold 3,553,995 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Open Market Sale Agreement for aggregate net proceeds of $21.2 million.

In April 2022, we closed an underwritten offering in which we sold 16,276,987 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,523,013 shares of common stock under the Registration Statement. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $68.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

In July 2022, we entered into a Loan Agreement with K2 HealthVentures LLC (“K2HV”, together with any other lender from time to time, the Lenders,“Lenders”), which provides up to $70.0 million principal in term loans consisting of (subject to certain customary conditions): (i) a First Tranche Commitment of $25.0 million, of which $5.0 million was funded at closing and withof which the remainder available to be drawnremaining $20.0 million was funded at our option through March 31,election in February 2023, (ii) two subsequent tranche commitments totaling $20.0 million in the aggregate to be drawn at our option during certain availability periods, subject to the achievement, as determined by the administrative agent in its sole discretion, of certain time-based, financial, clinical, and regulatory milestones relating to INZ-701 of which $7.5 million was funded at our election in June 2023, and (iii) a fourth tranche commitment of $25.0 million available to be drawn at our option through August 31, 2025, subject to use of proceeds limitations and Lender’sLenders’ consent in its discretion. We have an aggregate of $32.5 million principal in term loans outstanding. The Lenders may elect to purchase up to $5.0 million of shares of our common stock pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Additional information on the Loan Agreement is described in Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

In August 2023, we closed an underwritten offering in which we sold 14,375,000 shares of common stock under the Registration Statement. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $64.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.

Cash in excess of immediate requirements is invested primarily with a view to liquidity and capital preservation. The following table provides information regarding our total cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments at September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 20212022 (in thousands):

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

The cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from our net losses adjusted for non-cash charges and changes in components of working capital.

Net cash used in operating activities was $43.4increased approximately $8.8 million primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in payments against accounts payable and accrued expenses and a $3.3 million increase in our net loss adjusted for non-cash items in the nine months ended September 30, 20222023 compared to $34.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in cash used in operating activities of $8.7 million was primarily due to an increase in net loss adjusted for non-cash items of $11.1 million, offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.5 million.2022.

Net Cash (Used in) Provided byUsed in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $8.6increased approximately $38.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 20222023 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $33.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 20212022, as an $85.5 million increase in purchases of marketable securities surpassedexceeded a $46.7 million increase in maturities of marketable securities in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had maturities of marketable securities of $117.8 million, purchases of marketable securities of $126.0 million and purchases of property and equipment of $0.4 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had maturities of marketable securities of $138.7 million, purchases of marketable securities of $105.0 million and purchases of property and equipment of $0.4 million.2023.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities of $72.8increased $40.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 reflects2023 primarily due to a $23.5 million increase in net proceeds received from the cashissuance of long-term debt and a $17.4 million increase in combined net proceeds received from the issuance of common stock and pre-funded warrants in our underwritten offering in April 2022, proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt in July 2022, proceeds from the exercise of stock options, and proceeds from the issuance of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan. Net cash provided by financing activities of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflects cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options.warrants.

Funding Requirements

We expect to devote substantial financial resources totoward our ongoing and planned activities, particularly as we execute on our global development strategy, conduct our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trials of INZ-701 for ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency,Deficiencies, and continue research and development and initiate additional planned clinical trials of, and seek marketing approval for, INZ-701 and any other product candidate we develop. We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing and planned activities, particularly as we advance our preclinical activities and clinical trials. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for INZ-701 or any other product candidatescandidate we develop, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations. If we are unable to raise capital or obtain adequate funds when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our research and development programs or any future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves. In addition, attempting to secure additional financing may divert the time and attention of our management from day-to-day activities and distract from our research and development efforts.

Our futureDebt financing and equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our operations and ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional indebtedness, making acquisitions, engaging in acquisition, merger, or collaboration transactions, selling or licensing our assets, making capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

expenditures, redeeming our stock, making certain investments, or declaring dividends. The covenants under our Loan Agreement and the progress, costs and resultspledge of our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trials of INZ-701 for ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency and any future clinical development of INZ-701 for these indications;
the scope, progress, costs and results of research, preclinical testing and clinical trials of INZ-701 for additional indications;
the number of and development requirements for additional indications for INZ-701 or for any other product candidates we develop;
assets as collateral limit our ability to scale uptake specific actions, including obtaining additional financing. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances, or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our manufacturing processes and capabilities;

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $141.5 million. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of September 30, 2022, together with the remainder of the First Tranche Commitment,2023 will enable us to fund our cash flow requirements into the secondfourth quarter of 2024.2025. However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us. In addition, changing circumstances could cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control. As a result, we could deplete our capital resources sooner than we currently expect. In addition, because the successful development of INZ-701 andor any other product candidates that we pursue is highly uncertain, at this time we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing, and costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the development of any product candidate.

Identifying potential product candidates and conducting preclinical testing and clinical trials is a time-consuming, expensive and uncertain process that takes years to complete, and we may never generate the necessary data or results required to obtain marketing approval and achieve product sales. In addition, our product candidates, if approved, may not achieve commercial success. We will not generate commercial revenues unless and until we can achieve sales of products, which we do not anticipate for a number of years, if at all. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional financing to achieve our business objectives. Adequate additional financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, and may be impacted by the economic climate and market conditions.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenues from product sales, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. We do not have any committed external source of funds, other than under our Loan Agreement. Our ability to borrow under our Loan Agreement is subject to our satisfaction of specified conditions and lender discretion. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities or to the extent the Lenders elect to convert a portion of their outstanding principal into shares of our common stock pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the ownership interests of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of any new securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing common stockholders. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our operations and ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional indebtedness, making acquisitions, engaging in acquisition, merger or collaboration transactions, selling or licensing our assets, making capital expenditures, redeeming our stock, making certain investments or declaring dividends. The covenants under our Loan Agreement and the pledge of our assets as collateral limit our ability to take specific actions, including obtaining additional debt financing.

If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022,2023, there were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates from those described in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies

Except for the Loan Agreement entered into in July 2022 and described in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments from those described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial positionContractual Obligations, Commitments and results of operations is disclosedContingencies

Except for the additional borrowings under the Loan Agreement in February 2023 and June 2023 and described in Note 38 to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.10-Q, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments from those described in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 permits an “emerging growth company” such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards and will do so until such time that we either (1) irrevocably elect to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (2) no longer qualify as an emerging growth company.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2022,2023, our cash equivalents consisted of primarily of short-term money market funds.funds and U.S. government agency debt securities. As of September 30, 2022,2023, our short-term investments consisted of commercial paper,U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. Treasurygovernment agency debt securities. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. Due to the primarily short-term nature of the investments in our portfolio and the low risk profile of our investments, an immediate change of 100 basis points in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our investment portfolio or on our financial position. An immediate increase (decrease)position or results of 100 basis points would result in an increase (decrease) in interest income of approximately $1.0 million annually.operations.

As of September 30, 2022,2023, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Loan Agreement was $5.0$32.5 million, which bears interest at a variable rate equal to the greater of (i) 7.85% and (ii) the sum of (A) the prime rate last quoted in The Wall Street Journal (or a comparable replacement rate if The Wall Street Journal ceases to quote such rate) and (B) 3.85%; provided that the interest rate cannot exceed 9.60%. The interest rate as of September 30, 2022,2023 was 9.60%.

We are not currently exposed to significant market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates; however, we have contracted with and may continue to contract with foreign vendors that are located in Europe. Our operations may be subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates in the future.

Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor and clinical trial costs. We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations during the nine months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021.2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022.2023. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022,2023, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

YouIn addition to all of the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties and the risks and uncertaintiesfactors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. RiskItem 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2021, together with all of the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,2022, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The risk factors disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 is qualified by the information that is described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The risks described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.

Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Need for Additional Capital

We have a loan agreement that requires us to meet specified funding conditions and operating covenants and places restrictions on our operating and financial flexibility.

Under our Loan Agreement, we have $5.0 million of outstanding principal indebtedness, and we may in the future draw down up to $65.0 million of additional principal indebtedness under the Loan Agreement, subject to specified conditions and lender discretion. Our ability to draw down two tranche commitments totaling $20.0 million in the aggregate is subject to our achievement, as determined by the administrative agent in its sole discretion, of certain time-based, clinical and regulatory milestones relating to INZ-701. Our ability to draw down an additional tranche commitment of $25.0 million is subject to use of proceeds limitations and Lender’s consent in its discretion. As security for its obligations under the Loan Agreement, we granted the Lenders a first priority security interest on substantially all of our assets (other than intellectual property), subject to certain exceptions. Because of the security interest, the Lender’s rights to repayment from a liquidation of the assets subject to that security interest would be senior to the rights of other creditors.

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict our ability to, among other things, dispose of assets, make changes to our business, management, ownership or business locations, merge or consolidate, incur additional indebtedness, incur additional liens, pay dividends or other distributions or repurchase equity, make investments, and enter into certain transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to certain exceptions.

We intend to satisfy our current and future debt service obligations with our existing cash and cash equivalents. However, we may not have sufficient funds or may be unable to arrange for additional financing to pay the amounts due under our outstanding debt. Funds from external sources may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, a failure to comply with the conditions of our Loan Agreement, including a breach of any covenant, could result in an event of default thereunder. In the event of an acceleration of amounts due under our Loan Agreement as a result of an event of default, including upon the occurrence of an event or circumstance that could be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, properties, assets or financial condition or a failure to pay any amount due, we may not have sufficient funds or may be unable to arrange for additional financing to repay our indebtedness or to make any accelerated payments, and the Lenders could seek to enforce security interests in the collateral securing such indebtedness. Any declaration by the Lenders of an event of default could significantly harm our business and prospects and could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

In addition, our outstanding debt combined with our other financial obligations and contractual commitments could have significant adverse consequences, including:

restricting the amount of our cash resources, after satisfaction of our debt service obligations, available to fund working capital, research and development efforts and other general corporate purposes;
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry; and
placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt or better debt servicing options.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities

We did not issue any securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, during the three months ended September 30, 2022.2023.

Use of Proceeds from Initial Public Offering

On July 28, 2020, we completed our IPO,Initial Public Offering (“IPO”), pursuant to which we issued and sold 7,000,000 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $16.00 per share, and on July 30, 2020, we sold an additional 1,050,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $16.00 per share pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares.

We received aggregate gross proceeds from our IPO, inclusive of the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares, of approximately $128.8 million, or aggregate net proceeds of approximately $115.9 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

We have used approximately $50.9$110.9 million of the net proceeds from the IPO as of September 30, 20222023 to fund clinical development of INZ-701 to fundand our preclinical research and development activities, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. There has been no material change in our planned use of the net proceeds from our IPO as described in our final prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act with the SEC on July 24, 2020.
