Current report
Our strategic review and workforce reduction may not achieve our intended outcomes.
Current report
In May 2025, we announced the initiation of a process to explore a range of strategic alternatives aimed at maximizing both near- and long-term shareholder value, which could include, among other alternatives, a potential sale or licensing of assets, a sale of the Company, a business combination, a merger or other strategic action. We expect to devote substantial time and resources to exploring strategic alternatives we believe may drive shareholder value. Despite devoting significant efforts to identify and evaluate potential strategic alternatives, there can be no assurance that this strategic review process will result in us pursuing any transaction or that any transaction, if pursued, will be completed on attractive terms or at all. We have not set a timetable for completion of this strategic review process, and our Board of Directors has not approved a definitive course of action beyond the wind-down of our clinical and manufacturing operations and the exploration of strategic alternatives. Additionally, there can be no assurances that any particular course of action, business arrangement or transaction, or series of transactions will be pursued, successfully consummated or lead to increased shareholder value.
Current report
In connection with the strategic review, we also implemented certain actions to reduce operational and workforce expenses that are no longer deemed core to our ongoing operations in order to extend our capital resources, including the wind down of our clinical and manufacturing operations. We may experience unforeseen delays or other challenges in implementing these changes, which could adversely impact our timelines and operations and, ultimately, our ability to develop product candidates for potential commercialization. The workforce reduction may result in unintended consequences and costs, such as the loss of institutional knowledge and expertise, attrition beyond the intended number of employees, decreased morale among our remaining employees, and the risk that we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the reduction in force. Furthermore, we may undertake further similar cost-saving initiatives in the future, which may include additional restructuring or workforce reductions. These types of cost-reduction activities can be complex and result in unintended consequences and costs, which could adversely impact our business. In addition, we estimate we will incur additional costs related to our wind down activities, including but not limited to impairment charges, losses on disposals of assets, contract termination costs and other incremental expenses as a result of the strategic process. The amount of such charges and costs could be material to our results of operations and financial condition. The exact amounts and timing of recognition of such charges and costs is not yet known.

To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days before the Compliance Date.
